The amount of nat 20 tier rolls these CPUs rolled is crazy, Dan had a death gauntlet, and the government, community chest, and chance spaces saw the most action.
Yeah, it's literally what difficulty level changes in this game. The AI gets bullshit rolls and avoids every pitfall in their way. Thankfully for Dan, he just had too many properties for the AI to get through every single time.
There was the one playing of Monopoly where it was Arin or Dan (forget which) vs. one of the Hard AIs, with Arin having 90% of the properties and filled them with houses and hotels, and the AI just kept getting Chance and Community Chest and Free Parking and Jail. They went, like, 6 or 7 turns around the board without hitting one of Arin's properties once.
With the amount of times the computer juuuuuuuust missed every single one of Dans properties for what seems like 50 fucking rolls, there is no way that "Hard" isn't just "get the right number on the dice every time"
@@brett7398 I think it does more than that. Michel and especially Seraphina made much smarter decisions with their auctions than the easy NPCs (note: Iker not buying a single property in the entire game)
I don't think the game has every gone so far to show that it blatantly manipulates the dice than for nobody to land on Dan's house covered properties until he is in jail.
This version of Monopoly is pretty notorious for the AI "cheating". I think the way it actually works is it rigs rolls based on waves of "good luck and bad luck". If you watch closely, you'll see that for individual players will often get a series of terrible outcomes. Last episode it was Arin paying Dan money, then paying $100 to Chance, then landing on Boardwalk (though owner was in jail). The game basically decided to target Arin for a bit. Especially with Hard AI, you'll see just how often they "thread the needle" at the endgame. It's pretty unrealistic to avoid a death-row for 10 trips around the board when rolling a 7 would mean you lose, for instance, but the AI often do it when they play this game.
38:48 I recall on an older Monopoly video that someone had commented that the Hard AI just means that the rolls are beneficial to them, and I am constantly thinking that whenever Arin sets the difficulty.
But the reality is it probably cost him nothing because the AI only landed on those properties BECAUSE he was in jail. If he wasn't in jail, they probably would have landed elsewhere.
hey do you guys remember how the grump team made that awful dating sim and made one of the devs almost commit and have never apologized!!!! :D plus your beautiful wife bullying him and getting him doxxed. sorry forgot to add you actively try to sweep it under the rug and told crew to forget about it
Dan going to jail for one turn, immediately missing out on almost $1500, and then accidentally rolling dice instead of paying the $50 is just about the perfect metaphor for my life.
Ten minute power hour into Monopoly into supermarket simulator into more monopoly into a weekend of the first dr3 trial. This might actually be the most perfect week of grumps for me ever.
Every time he was putting a house on the blues I was feeling he was crazy for doing that when he could instead unmortgaged the brown properties and then used the turbo cheap house prices on brown properties to choke out the number of houses in the game
I like this session of Monopoly because neither Arin nor Dan can heavily influence the game, with 4 NPCs, it’s a more natural experience where 6 entities can generate money via collecting $200 to stimulate the (non)monopoly economy
To answer Dan's query: Janitor is strictly cleaning duties, where Custodians tend to have duties beyond just that like basic repairs and/or plumbing/electrical maintenance. So technically yes some custodians would feel slighted if you called them a janitor, but in the sense of like if you called a college professor with a phd a high school substitue teacher with a bachelor's. There's bit more involved.
If there was ever proof that the only thing Hard AI does is give the CPUs better luck to avoid landing on bad spots, it's this shit. This is ridiculous. Also every single time Danny spends ALL his money, leaving not even a little buffer in case he lands on a railroad or something, I die a little inside.
I wonder if they're ever going to realize that buying hotels typically isn't the better play than just having 3-4 houses on everything. Dan had the opportunity to buy every single house except for Aron's two, making it impossible for anyone else to buy a house ever again, essentially guaranteeing victory. Also, in the event shit goes down and you do need to make some quick money, and there are no available houses, you can't even sell a hotel to pay for it.
This game of Mono Poly was ridiculous from start to finish, and I loved the cut in the first episode to Arin being pissed at landing on the dark blue property. It's peak.
32:58 I too love the picture of the monopoly man holding out his hand and pointing to his palm. It's a running joke in my family when we owe each other money where we mimic that pose and say "gib me money".
Arin every other game of Monopoly: The railroads are THE best property and I will do whatever it takes to have them. Arin when Saraphina has all 4 railroads: I'm actually impressed these are paying off. It takes a lot of lands for it to be worth it.
Dan losing nearly $2,000 (or more than the singular worth of each of his opponents) because he was in jail was worse than the snake bite that entered the veins primarily due to someone's proximity to said snake.
Its my 20th today lads, and I wanted to thank you both for all the laughter throughout the years. Youve made my days more full of joy and smiles. Game Grumps 100 years!!!
Watching how much Dan complains in Monopoly is amazing when you remember that, I'm pretty sure, Arin has not won a single time since they started using this version
dan is very competitive lol people call arin a sore winner/loser but he's just bein silly both ways, dan like genuinely wants to crush and humiliate the competition lmfao
@@MegamanStarforce2010 Yeah, a lot of people joked about the genuine strategic masterminding that was Dan manipulating Jacksepticeye against Arin when they all played Monopoly. Dan was clearly ahead from start to finish and he somehow rallied a coalition against Arin because Arin was gloating about the outcome of one turn. haha
@@GammisSetiren that game remains probably my favourite to this day simply because Dan's going full Machiavellian scheming to turn Sean against Arin right from the start
29:55 Hey Dan! So its not that Janitor is offensive or anything, it's just that Janitor and Custodian are two different jobs, so referring to a custodian as a janitor can be seen as kind of dismissive, sort of like referring to an executive chef as a cook, or referring to a master surgeon as a nurse. Basically, a janitor just cleans; thats all. A custodian cleans, but is also responsible for the entire building itself, the grounds, all the mechanical and electrical equipment, heating, cooling, etc. Im a custodian for my local school district and I have to have half a dozen licenses from the state and federal government in order to do my job. I run the giant high pressure boilers that heat the building (dangerous as hell if you don't know what youre doing), the HVAC system that cools it, the elevators, the school's entire electrical system, the pool, the generators, the security system, the fire alarms and sprinklers, etc. We also plow the parking lot and clear the sidewalks in winter, cut the grass in the summer, maintain the grounds and building, and were responsible for making sure the building is compliant with all regulations and codes. When the fire Marshall, building code enforcement, health department, etc, comes to inspect the building, the custodian is the one on the hook if things arent up to snuff. We're highly trained, skilled professionals. Thats why some custodians take offense at being called a Janitor. But to someone who actually IS a janitor, calling them that is not offensive at all. And calling them a custodian would be kinda weird, like referring to a frycook at McDonald's as an executive chef.
So, to recap, Easy NPCs will NEVER attempt to win an auction, my suspicions were confirmed and Green is absolutely the worst monopoly to have, the game absolutely manipulates dice rolls in favor of the NPCs, and Dan lost approximately $1500 while he was in jail. What a game.
I never thought I'd see the day in which watching two men I've never met playing a game Monopoly would count as a genuinely entertaining way to spend a Friday night.
I am SO here for 40-Part-Double-Guest-Grump madness. Please make it happen. I'll destroy that Like. I'll sniff that Bell. I won't just Survive, I'll THRIVE.
First time watching a Game Grumps video, and Dan's voice sorta reminded me of the guy who sang in Starlight Brigade. You guys will NEVER GUESS who sang in Starlight Brigade.
"What was _your_ favourite episode, Billy?" "I like the one where they go *BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP BIP* for a _loooooooong_ time!"
I love that Dans actually seeming to pick up more and more Monopoly strategy as time goes on. One day I believe we'll see him always building in the correct order at this rate! It might be a few years but hey, we can get there!
I just don't get how Arin doesn't realize the best method to beat Dan is to just deny him the monopolies. in this session, he just let Dan complete the first monopoly when he could have stolen the property, even if overpaying.
Man...I love the tension of this video of not knowing who was gonna get nailed first...but it's also kinda painful when you know that Dan could've had the game on lock 20 minutes in by selling his hotels and buying houses on brown to lock everyone out of more houses while still having well over $300 in pocket. xD
It drove me crazy when Dan had basically no money and still decided to buy a house while he was right before the opponent's properties with expensive hotels on them. And had to sell 2 houses to pay when he landed on them. If he didn't buy a house with such low money, he would have two more houses. Edit: He did it again! 🤦♂ And also when he just gave them the orange monopoly.
Very well done Arin and especially Danny! This was a blast to watch! I couldn't look away from the screen because it was so interesting to see all 6 players with their own ideas on what they want to pay for a property, then leading up to making deals to secure Monopoly's, even the computer clearly giving better rolls to the Hard Ai, all of it culminated into a fantastic game of Monopoly the likes of which I've never witnessed before. Well done Grumps and congratulations to Danny for taking home the W!
For whatever reason, when you commented on the Monopoly man pointing to his hand, demanding money and then started shouting, as him, I immediately thought of John Malkovich, which honestly would make for a Mr. Monopoly to be feared, indeed. You never know what he's capable of.
This was the best monopoly run ever. Dan slowly earned this victory through good decisions and even had a few close calls with pulling the game ending chance card and having to mortgage/sell houses on more than one occasion. But the icing on the cake was the seemingly infinite luck character landing on boardwalk with a hotel on it. Absolutely perfect run, they should try 6 players on a non-auction game and see how it goes. It definitely put more money in the potential pool for them to get houses with.
56:14 I am SO glad Arin said this because the wheelbarrow squeak did remind me of something each time I heard it but I couldn't think of what. That was EXACTLY IT.
most servant roles are actually pretty nice words. a butler is a bottler, someone who takes care of the wine. a custodian has custody of the place. and a janitor is in charge of the doors, he keeps keys to all the doors, because of Janus, the god of doors. Buut a lot of the other words just mean 'boy' or 'girl' so those aren't as good.
“what’s your favorite episode of game grumps billy?” “i like the one where dan buys and sells the same two houses on the green properties for a looooong time”
As soon as Danny said “we’re gonna finish this” I noticed the video length 😂
Watch it on 1.5 speed.

This game doesn't even try to be subtle about how it bullshits rolls.
Yeah, it's literally what difficulty level changes in this game. The AI gets bullshit rolls and avoids every pitfall in their way. Thankfully for Dan, he just had too many properties for the AI to get through every single time.
@@resileaf9501 I die a little inside every time Arin sets the AI on hard because then there's no satisfaction, for this reason.
@@resileaf9501that's such a lame way of dealing with difficulty but idk how you'd do it differently

"They call it snake eyes but I call them square titties" - that shit took me out
It deserved more of a reaction
I was rewatching this, forgot that line and had to fight to to stop myself from laughing out loud and waking my partner xD
Dan fat fingering himself into staying in jail and not being able to collect rent plus giving Seraphina a monopoly for peanuts is hysterical
*Archer voice* Phrasing!
Dan WHAT now
A victory for Team Dan & Arin!
(A subsidiary of Team Arin)
Anytime I see that. I can imagine arin hooked up to a copium machine.
Marie is absolutely the heiress of the family that’s owned a utility for like 200 years and is just an institution
With the amount of times the computer juuuuuuuust missed every single one of Dans properties for what seems like 50 fucking rolls, there is no way that "Hard" isn't just "get the right number on the dice every time"
Look it up, that's literally all the difficulty does in this game.
@@brett7398 I think it does more than that. Michel and especially Seraphina made much smarter decisions with their auctions than the easy NPCs (note: Iker not buying a single property in the entire game)
Besides a couple of decisions, the hard AI is just to get specific dice rolls to avoid harmful properties
Bro this is what happens with humans too lol
There are some legitimate improvements to the AI, but yes it does also cheat
I don't think the game has every gone so far to show that it blatantly manipulates the dice than for nobody to land on Dan's house covered properties until he is in jail.
I stopped playing this version of monopoly cuz it’s so bullshit and rigged
Agreed.
The redwood Monopoly Version is still the best.
it vicariously made me so frustrated to see the computer blatantly do that
@@sloth4235Rigged in what way? Like the game picks a random person to suffer misfortune each run?
I am SO cheering on a guest grumps of this where it’s a full house, it would be MADNESS 🙏😂👀
with the remaining cast of Full House
It is wild how as soon as Dan goes to jail, literally everyone lands on his properties.
AI doesn't have to cheat at that point lol
Dan's solid at most board games but when the luck gods come they come to COLLECT.

AI cheats, when those stop being death spots, they become valid outcomes again.
Like flies to unsupervised picnic food, lmao
That moment of confusion when Dan has hotels on half of the board but there’s still a half hour of the video left
I checked the time SO many times XD
38:48 I recall on an older Monopoly video that someone had commented that the Hard AI just means that the rolls are beneficial to them, and I am constantly thinking that whenever Arin sets the difficulty.
Every time I hear the boat horn, my brain autocompletes with "BRAUGHH. LiKe aN iDioT"
THANK YOU

Yep, exactly the same

Dan losing $1800 being in jail physically hurt me.
never look up "civil forfeiture"
On the bright side he still won in the end
where?
What can I say? Maybe he shouldn't have littered then.
AND HE STILL WON.
Dan's time in jail cost him:
$24 from Marie
$24 + $550 from Arin
$600 from Saraphina
$550 + $50 from Iker
For a grand total of $1798
But the reality is it probably cost him nothing because the AI only landed on those properties BECAUSE he was in jail. If he wasn't in jail, they probably would have landed elsewhere.

I really wish they'd come around to the idea that the "worst idea" and the "most entertaining idea" aren't always the same thing.
Every time he was putting a house on the blues I was feeling he was crazy for doing that when he could instead unmortgaged the brown properties and then used the turbo cheap house prices on brown properties to choke out the number of houses in the game
Him not un-mortgaging the Yellows was constantly killing me. Arin with the Reds too.
@@burnin8able I very much doubt Dan remembered that there's limited houses.

most servant roles are actually pretty nice words. a butler is a bottler, someone who takes care of the wine. a custodian has custody of the place. and a janitor is in charge of the doors, he keeps keys to all the doors, because of Janus, the god of doors. Buut a lot of the other words just mean 'boy' or 'girl' so those aren't as good.
After the first “Serenity Now” I fully expected the “SERENITY NOW!” after Marie and Serafina kept threading the needle 😂
YES. DO THE 40 PART MONOPOLY SERIES, PLEEASEE GOOOOOOOOD
Danny *almost* losing to his insatiable greed multiple times was not the stress I needed watching this episode.
“what’s your favorite episode of game grumps billy?”
“i like the one where dan buys and sells the same two houses on the green properties for a looooong time”
Danny's about to roll
Arin: C'mon, 4, 5, 7!
Danny joins in
both: 4-5-7-
Danny: Wait I don't want that
This was the most fun series of Monopoly yet, from a gameplay standpoint at least! I really loved it.
“Thank you for sticking with us”
Me, having the time of my life watching this epic story unfold
Oh my God, Dan going to jail and 4 opponents in a row immediately landing on his property’s is so brutal!!
Dan keeping the Yellows and Arin keeping the Reds mortgaged despite everyone constantly landing on them makes me groan so hard.
