10/10 challenge run, loved the cool chosen glitches used to beat them. AND THAT FINIAL FIGHT WAS NAIL-BITING, so many clutch dodges and shots. Wasn't sure Leeson was gonna make it several times.
So actual thoughts for a Rookies-only run: Grab a mod that changes the max squad size, and rather than "can you do it" the challenge is "how few can you (reasonably) do it with". To clarify, I'm suggesting you increase the squad size, rather than making it even harder for yourself.
If you do ever have to ACTUALLY do a rookie only run, it would probably be more interesting if there was a boosted squad size maybe to 10 or something like that.
Dodged a bullet with Maya, Hungary was once the best at football But yeah, we are terrible Tbf football is terrible I hate football I hate maya I hate dating apps
aside from the commitment that you made at the end, what you could do is a vid similar to the videos where you've failed. Just do a couple attempts on stream, then cut them up and narrate to us the minutia of why it's so hard. All the unintended consequences that come from not ranking up. That'll probably get people to shut up about it for a while. Just make sure to title it something like "Failing at beating XCOM 2 rookies only"; that way when/if you do actually beat it, the videos cant be mixed up and people skip it.
Woooooo. That "influencer isn't a job" and the following awkwardness was soooooooooo much cringe, I squirmed and had to take a break. Just Wow. I have a very complex mixture of enjoyment, revulsion and brain damage that I need to process. EDIT: "We did it!" - hahahaha OMG.
Rumor has it you're looking for a real challenge. Well, Rumor has it that you can skulljack multiple codex on one mission, aka, you can fight multiple avatars on one map. Rumor has it that you don't stand a chance against a three pod codex, but we both know the truth, right commander?
@@TheDriftersBroadcast I heard the skulljack only loses the ability to do it thing after the mission is over. After all, you have to be able to kill the aviator to beat the game, if you don't, you have to do the process over again
We're still waiting!
Thanks for the support, boss. We'll get there one day!
@@TheDriftersBroadcast probably the day GRRM finishes Game of thrones ;D
YES! FINALLY!
wait, it's april 1st
Where is the proximity mine run?
@@dtdumb Behind Censorship Leeson's noggin
No, I wanted a melee only run
Why not? Really? Close range!
Mutons. Also Unreachable turrets. Don’t get me wrong it would be cool but it’s basically templars only with restrictions.
@@foxyelpirata6698 Stun grenades (aren't a "weapon" technically). Throwable axe.
Defenetly!
Maybe it is you didn't see what happened on the date. 🙂
In this episode, Vinny fails the vibe check, and I feel slightly more comfortable about not having anyone to prank this year.
Petition to put "The Bed Wetter" into the character pool
Well played, Drifter. Well played.
3:30 located the Chosen stronghold
6:45 Warlock use weird summoning that make you stunning what they did
8:00 attack Assassin Stronghold

This is an S tier video Drifter, great job on the run. Really worked hard for that ending
can't believe you did this one honestly
playing rookies only and keeping the same units the whole campain is a step up dude
This kind of commentary for mundane things is what I am here for.
Niam leeson being the censor just replaces one disturbing thing with a TH-cam approved disturbing thing.
Needs more bezerekers. Now there's someone that's not afraid of PDA.
Respect for knowing Vinny should not be a simp for online girls.
I was like what I am watching for most of this, but I watched it all the same. And I was not disappointed with the commentary, well played Drifter.
Can’t believe you beat the whole campaign using only rookies in only 3 missions. Great job drifter!
This video was not what i wanted... BUT DAMN I JUST COULDN´T STOP LAUGHING DURING THE WHOLE VIDEO XDDD this is so good! thank you Drifter
Hey you finished the game without firing a gun ! I was waiting for a silent run, what a great prank !
Drifter convinced me to consider trying 5 Dates. I am not joking, the game looks HILARIOUS.
Loved the video! For your next Xcom run you gotta have a soldier who's a black guy with a bandana called Bed Wetter
So actual thoughts for a Rookies-only run:
Grab a mod that changes the max squad size, and rather than "can you do it" the challenge is "how few can you (reasonably) do it with".

“The RNG has landed in our favor” I don’t know why this made me laugh so hard😂
I feel like an idiot for not notecing earlier. Well played mr close range musican.
It's finally fucking here...
Wait a second, why is it only 16 minutes long?
Oh.
Damn, didn't know that Cannonfodder had this much skill at evading shots! He could probably evade Five Dates with a Viper! X)
I wanted an Alien's only run, and I've gotten a cheap knock-off instead!
To be fair, women seem to be pretty alien to Vinny.
"One is a criminal..."
*Wave* from a place where it's legal.
It may not be the game we wanted but it was the game we deserved
I thought I was finally going to get my request. Well played man...
You played me like a fiddle 😢
XD I like how Niam's face is somehow not demonitizing.
Also, well done on finishing (failing?) the game so quickly!
Honestly, plenty of laugh out loud moments in this video, thanks Drifter! :D
We need an Imperial Guard Only run.
If you do ever have to ACTUALLY do a rookie only run, it would probably be more interesting if there was a boosted squad size maybe to 10 or something like that.
50K on the way, you def deserve it!!
oh this is going to be good
edit: oh this is so much better than I wanted
Only thing I wanna know is what Leeson was censoring in the background there.
Dodged a bullet with Maya,
Hungary was once the best at football
But yeah, we are terrible
Tbf football is terrible
I hate football
I hate maya
I hate dating apps
Super Nice, so weird watching this after April 1st
Excuse me but wtf is that thing on 4:38 and 10:03?????
Our Lord and Saviour.
@@TheDriftersBroadcast im inside your walls th-cam.com/video/MIxFSM0eNdA/w-d-xo.html
Thank god, I was expecting to see a LWotC video today...
The rookie only run we can all relate to
I must say, this is the best rookie only run i've ever seen !
A rookie only run that’s only 16 minutes long. Unless this is a secret speed run strat I’d guess it didn’t work
I actually thought this was finally it. 💀💀. well played.
Fuck! I forgot today's date.
The move at 13:02 was so stupid. Even muton would do better. Rookie indeed
I wanna see just how awkward one can be in 5 dates and still "succeed" now x,D

Never got to close range.

maybe instead of a rookie run, make it a squaddie run, so you do get roles and abilities. but they are still not powerfull
Wow, way to crush my hopes and dreams.🤣
Uhh, what?
Vinny got more game than I do!
What about a sergeant only run?
Magnificent as always
Oooooh now I get who Vinny and the Bed Wetter are lmao, I shoulda watched this one first
Got to admit that got me good.
Perfect April fools joke😂
I love this day!
Why would you date with irl woman, if you can date with female ADVENT Trooper with some ADVENT burgers? 🤭💅
Good stuff 👍 😂
You're a real bastard.... Respect though
But you are already suffering for our amusement though.
You can make it to 50k drifter easy!
Good one !
Out of respect I want people to eat meat in front of me.
I mean come on, is it so hard to tolerate my life style?????
me making another 34k accounts for subbing to drifter
Heyyy, you did one about my comment from a while ago!
Update: I'm sad now

I don't think it works. After you skulljack the first codex (assuming it's successful), I think the ability becomes unusable by your other troops.

This is horrible. My disappointment is... immeasurable. I mean, imagine being that poorly written, even for a joke? Those poor women.
Pistols only
Good one :)
Why?
Is today April fool's day?
Indeed!
No i wanted a stupid only run
"Works in the Creative Industry, which, apparently, is a thing that exists..."
says the man that creates video's on TH-cam...
I... what is this? I figured you were messing with us but what have you done? Who calls this a game? Lol
Pacifist only run
Bro has a twitch and youtube channel and doubts that creative industry exists 💀
I love this series. Oh wait, wrong series...
