Rob truly is the Attenborough of videogame journalism.
Especially when describing water graphics
Amen to that!
What a compliment and how true it is!
Man's a legend.
Nope you suck at making comparisons. Idiota-mungrol con
stage 8, being so gud, you use the mastery to help others. you've matured beyond the smug stage 7 and have moved on to stage 8: Wise Sensei. A veritable guru, your sage advice helps other players along their way, such that they can get the most out of the game.
I reached this stage in Fallout 4... Then I got a high stress job. Now I settle for easy mode competent.
8 is me in ESO.
Is Stage 9 when you go on TH-cam and discover some people have gitted so gud that they now entertain themselves by beating the game with novelty console peripherals from the 1980s or with controllers made entirely out of sliced potatoes?
And finally stage 10...Japanese Gud. Where some 10yr old kid has done what the stage 9 noobs have done but complete the game in under 1hr in an internet cafe. It's a stereotype I know but god damn so many of those peeps be unreal. Different level of determination.
Erianna-3 i suppose there is also stage 9, when you already long gone for other games, still have all the knowledge, platinum, and tricks, but none of muscle memory, being suck again like noob again, and wonder how you achieve platinum at that time, lol
I feel Rob just made this to flex about how good he is at CTR
*gud lol
But he isn’t lmao.
"You have to be really gud ... gud with a U .... like me" 😂
I love it when Rob does _smug_
Stage 8: write online tutorials about how to git gud… tutotrials that are not sarcastic, but genuinely helpful(if somewhat smug). :D
He does it oh so well
Well the stage of going online, while having strolled through the Expert and Hardcore modes of the story part of the game is according to me the most gruesome... I had no clue people were using Aim-bots while playing multi-player FPS and really felt disappointed at myself for having been, not as much of a Hardcore player as the Story mode suggested...^^
@@gasnaxvasg4830 Aim-bots are cheating... :/
The number of times the number of players in Destiny 2 who have told me to "git gud." All I ever responded was "gud advice." One noxious troll actually shot back "take it."
I used to think I was good at Tekken until I took it online. I found out that it's not that I'm good, my friends are just rubbish.
Hear hear! Apparently I can not do any combos when lag and proper opponents occur. Damn you reality!
And so is the computer.
@@sephandremanticore5438 you didn't try Tekken with a mouse n keyboard did you? Because that just sounds nightmarish... kinda like trying an RTS without a mouse n keyboard.
I was born in a time where street fighter dint have online mode , i was the king around my zip code area , it all changed when they had the first's SF online.
Prophein X
Yup. Lol. Same. I can kind of compete online with it now but definitely not “gud” yet. Lol
No amount of “gitting gud” will prepare you for the WiFi warriors and ping paladins in online games
Chronic Delight
Such a harsh truth 😂🤣😂
Thank you for the those two phrases.
Because competitive is a totally different beast from noncompetitive; it actually requires a HELL of a lot of foresight and planning, both micro and macro, and mindgaming, along with encyclopedic knowledge of the game's physics and glitches. Can't handle the word "tactic" or see how a certain technique could be useful? Well, for now, you stay worse than bad.
Guess you havent reached that stage yet. Once you know you are fighting a ping paladin you can match your skill with their ping. As in do what you normally would, but then one second earlier or later, depending on their ping ofc. Also, stop using lock on against them.
Hope this helps
Ptsd flashback of backstabs in dark souls 1 intensifie
Rob: "I don't have the perseverance gene"
Also Rob: "Keeps persevering to get platinum on crash team racing"
Adam Quin to be fair he kinda has to. He backed himself into a corner by talking up his crash team racing skills for the past what several years
It's true love ♥️😂
Fetus of Dark Abomination was my favorite boss in Punch the Bad Man 8.
Great video as always!
I can't imagine how hard it is to think about new subjects for these videos.
Keep up the good work!
taking a break to play another game cause you hit a deadwall and then come back smash it first time.
Happened for me with Martyr Logarius from Bloodborne: he must have killed me like 30 times b4 I rage quit. Came back to the game a week later and beat him first go.
@@Kalypso_Belador I was so lucky on that Bucking fastard he got caught on a chimney on the roof went ham downed him 1st try felt really underwhelming kinda hollow victory especially after the wet nurse and Amygdala ruined me multiple times not to forget the sodding moon presence.
@@Kalypso_Belador and I never did the dungeon so no platinum for me
@@darkside-warrior
I got the plat, but the Defiled dungeon almost made me quit.
Sometimes you're just too shaken from your failures to not keep failing. Breaks do wonders for your literal nerves.
Rob: Stage one is-
Me: *Secure The Keys!*
Step 3
RAIN FIRE!!!!
Ha Ha I gOt ThAt ReFeReNcE
"The confidence of Batman along with his abilities..." Rob says as Batman has health in the red.
Just kidding I love what you do Rob.
Friday Feature didn't start with "hello, you caught me..."
Life doesn't make sense anymore...
(Great video, as always, though)
Yes! A Friday Feature! I was worried there for a moment. We miss you Rob!
Thanks, Rob!
There are so many games we love, but absolutely suck at. That's why we need to learn to GIT GUD.
™
Stage 8: You get defeated by someone of comparable skill, and rather than get angry, you feel that it was an honor to compete with someone of your caliber, maybe greater than you, and salute them in spirit.
The stage of humility and respect.
Great Fri Feature Rob, and excellent content all around lately. X-com 2 and Rocket League (things I'm not usually that into) have been really amazing. You guys are in top form.
--- To the Mystery Stream!!
"PvP Darwinism: survival of the gud-ist" That is genius and scarily accurate
11:11 rob smug smile really made my day lol
So true So true. Every stage. Only I never give up for good. I do know the agony of getting Gud. I've had my share. Brilliant. Great video Rob as always.🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳♥️♥️♥️♥️
The Fetus of Dark Abomination is the most Soulsborne phrase I've heard in a while.
Love this kind of content !! Its a gem in youtube, real gamer doing real content of game, which real gamer can really relate to, keep up the great videos guys !!
Dear Rob as some one who just beat oxide final ghost on dragon mines like 10 minutes ago I highly recommend taking the shortcut with a speed character makes it way easier to be caught up with him
You missed the stage where once your Gud with a game, that it feels like cake walk on the highest difficulty to you when replaying it, almost like your not trying at all.
Until you get to stage 7.5 where you try online multi-player and run into people who also wipe the floor with everything and every one... except other human opponents.
Being a completionist I have to git gud at every game I play to master them
@C-Core
Not just plat but 100% too.
Try aliens isolation
@@devilgames2217 try aliens isolation
@C-Core yup even got for the platinum on dragonball Figtherz
DBFZ is pure dedication
Ah this reminded me of oldschool gaming when some games required at least stage 4 to even beat the first level. Beating a game wasn't just an experience it was an achievement in itself.
Yeah, old school games were really short compared to modern games but were so hard you need to spend at least 20 hours to beat the game.
Absolutely fantastic video Rob! As always! My Friday never officially starts until I have seen the Friday Feature! Thx so much! Keep up the great work! We miss Delsin though :(
Ah the Git Gud.
I love that Futaba´s All Out Attack Line is Git Gud as well.
Again, I really need Persona 5 Royal :D
People who already knew to click the notification bell without you saying it are the ones who have truly gotten gud.
I am not even at stage 3 at rocket league and I have played it for 4 years
I just wanted to say awesome picture it reminds me of when GoW (Dad of Boi) first released and i finally bought my copy of it and began my journey of "Gitting gUd" though i never made it to the U but i still feel happy that i beat the Queen on hard mode
Sometimes this happens. There are some games we can never be even competent at, no matter how hard we try; on the plus side, there are some games that we find ourselves amazing at even though we just started.
At one point I was third in the world at Maro Kart DS without having even sunk 100+ hours into the game. But I have never, ever been able to do anything aside from suck, in any FPS or RTS I have ever played.
I was at stage 5 of rocket league then I stopped playing for awhile but when I came back I was stage 3.
Yea I've played it for years and still can't score more than 1 or 2 goals a game
It's alright holmes. I just got to stage 3 in League of Legends and I've been playing since 2013.
Another master piece Rob. I had to git gud when I went for the platinum on kill zone shadowfall. The campaign was easy but those online trophies were so draining, I grinded for months till I eventually heard the blissful ping of that trophy pop.
I have a "mad gamer crush😍" on you Rob. Your love & passion for gaming is so apparent in every video you make & I so look forward to your Friday Features...even if I can't always watch them on Friday.
I'm a stage 3 guy, I admit it
Hard mode and beyond does intrigue me but I just can't deal with the stress and the hassle
If you're reading this, have a fantastic weekend!
I can't though Morgana keeps telling me to sleep.
You too!
@@Wolffang731 yea ,Morgana really knows how to butt into our free time.
Don't tell me what to do. You're not the boss of me!
Just started playing Persona 5 and Morgana won't stay quiet meow. Have a good weekend
Every week I marvel at the fact that rob can keep coming up with good ideas for Friday features
Fantastic theme. Great job Rob!
7th Stage for Nascar Heat 3
Finally found a setup for each track in all series. Got Gud and contend for every W offline 105 difficulty and Online PVP multiplayer.
Multiplayer is the hardest because it is a not clean racing, it's a battleroyal demolition derby imo, survival & skill is key for victory.
500+ online wins and proud of it
Unless you're like me and try iRacing then fall back to stage 3 again.
lookin over Rosie's shoulder like that. She wasn't having it.
I wouldn't cross her. Lul.
Suddenly after years of training and long gruesome battles, you awaken the seventh sense and now you can fully control your gaming "cosmo", that is is the stage 7, when you go beyond the elite level, it enables a being to perform extraordinary feats, just like when Daigo did that awesome parry moment at evo 2004
I love these videos that take a bit of a psychological dive. Great work👍
I am IMMENSELY PROUD of the fact that I have Gotten Gud at The Last of Us....on Grounded!!! Multiple times!🤘💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪❤❤❤
I'm forever Stage 3 club XD I play games for fun:3
You are certainly not alone. Trying to get good at a game to me feels to much like work and I rather go play the next game on my way to large backlog.
@@niekwesseling4355 Same here! There are so many good games out there.
and who say stage 7 is no fun?, most of my games i am ok with stage 3, but there is a few i get most of the fun once i reach stage 7 one example is the Monster Hunter series, the feeling of execute a perfect hunt you know what the monster will do before they even start doing it, and the feeling of making a really hard figth look like it was nothing, at least for me thats fun.
@@cuentaalterna3754 If you like to spend and dedicate a lot of time for one game. I prefer to move on then exaust myself and experience negative feelings of failing.
@@elcrest1536 i respect your opinion about not wanting to expend more time that need it to finish a game, but i think you fail much more the first time you play the game than when you try to master the game.
Personally with some games I have a stage in between 4-5 that I like to call “Hitting refresh”. It’s where I get so frustrated that I’m competent but not improving that I quit it and wait for a bit before picking it back up. This amount of time can range from overnight to a month later. When I come back I suddenly can succeed. It’s happened many many times.
Love the videos Rob, best part of my fridays, keep up the good work from a long time level 3 fan :D
I feel like Nath is always at level 7 condescension mode even if he's at level 1.🤣🤣🤣
In attempts at platinum trophies, I am eternally stuck on stage 4 -- great at single player, awful at online.
Online trophies are the worst. specially at games that are like 95% single player and doing the online stuff can be pretty much impossible.... looking at you ghostbuster (PS3) and Digimon cyber sleuth -_-
@@lesserspottedmugwump.363 really? Not one? What kind of games you usually play?
I don't mind online trophies as long its progression based reach rank 50 or something like that, no matter how bad you are you'll get it eventually. The trophies I hate are the really situational ones, get 3 triple kills back to back in mid air whilst using your fists also you must do a backflip.
Absolutely friggin love that you use Dark Cloud in these vids!! Both those games are 2 of my all time favorites from early ps2 days
Seeing Headless from Sekiro again gave me chills. I was so creeped out by those things, but I ended up really loving finding out HOW to freaking kill those monsters. The first kill was such a rush!
The writing is gud.. the best I've seen till now of all the ffs
I suppose you could say Rob "got gud" at writing list features. :D
Final step would be trolling other players in PVP
din0chickennuggets The glorious 'Teabag' to solidify your status.
Unless you play elder scrolls pvp, then it takes 30 players to zerg you down and the rando that showed up for the end and never hit you gets theor bags in lmao
Like in the days of MW2 getting a Nuke using only your fists =) gud times.
@@ThePokestopPapi Well... mercy is for the weak. Thus to hold back in PvP implies that you think your opponent is unworthy of your attention. Thus you must destroy them as hard as you can for to do otherwise is an insult. :D
Don't need to be at top level to troll in PVP. I'm sure others would agree.
I randomly got curious of PlayStation Access subs and started watching the views on the videos... Damn Robs Friday Features literally carry the shitout the channel! Amazing Job Rob!
Friday features are just masterpieces aren't they?
That little bit if joy that you know it's gonna pop up on Friday and you'll hear rob chime in.
Truly captivating every week.....even on things I don't usually care about.
These videos are the only good things on this channle
At the very least the only things I happen to watch
@harry chandler well I just don't watch any of the others. They just don't interest me I suppose
@@groundedfan7724 watch Dave play outlast while Rob and Nathan yell at him
@@Berry_Best still enjoyable videos like that rare
Rob, if you are reading this. Good job mate! You still know how to read.
This may just be my all-time favorite video you've ever done.
"Seikiro multiplayer" sounds at once incredible and utterly terrifying.
I want it.
I took a shot every time Crash Team Racing was mentioned. Now my head hurts.
It's the new Metal Gear Solid tally.
I'm pretty sure I'm at level 7 at CTR since I can beat Oxide on all tracks on the first try, but man, I still get destroyed online quite often.
Welcome to Stage 8: There is no 'Gud', there's only different levels of getting trashed online
To be fair tho you can get juggel by those weapons alot i have went from 1st to 8th place by continuesly being hit by bombs shields rockets or masks or anything, but thats whats so Fun tho you can be gud and still getting trashed by noobs cuz they have Lucky box draws and yours suck (looking at you beakers and tnts)
One of your best videos in a while - all the stages seem accurate to me. There are only a few games I would say I truly mastered back in the day - Halo 3, Halo Reach, Battlefront 2 (original) and maybe Geometry Wars on a good day. Mostly though, I usually settle for either competence or being just good, because life.
I see what you did there. Showing Vordt footage because you probably never got beyond this point (staying true to the noob lore) but the weapon art of his great hammer is perseverance. Well done.
In full disclosure I can confirm to having been in all 7 stages in various games and insanely some games quite a few of these..... (raises hand).
*How I git gud:*
Step 1 - I don't buy the game, I play something else that is actually fun.
When you're nearly in tears on happiness when you finally executed lady butterfly after 3hrs of countless attempt..
But then she says " Impressive boy " ..
Brilliant! Simply freaken brilliant Rob!
Hello, you've been caught again Rob!
7 Stage Gud at the following:
Sekiro
Dark Souls 3
Bloodborne
Tekken 7
And ehh..
Ratchet & Clank
Platinum Deadlocked (ie get the Ninja Ratchet skin) and you will be a god in R&C games by default because you have mastered every non-game-specific mechanic in the series. Or just get the skill point for beating the final arena battle in Crack In Time without being hit once.
Video games is special and you Rob you’re a genius. Your videos a always great buddy
After so much time a real "ROB'S GOOD FRIDAY FEATURE" kee0 making videos like tgis and we will keep loving u all even more
OR you play fighting games and will be made to look and feel like a noob for the rest of your life.........once you pass stage 7, you reach stage 8 "There is no such thing as 'gud'; only different levels of scrub."
😅
“You’ve earned the right to play the game. Now back to the bottom of the totem pole you filthy scrub”
@@TheDuckMaster12 Or, as was said in ye olde arcade, "Back of the line, btch!"
This sums up my skill at smash bros perfectly.
Stage 7 survival games player. (Resident Evil, The Last of Us, Evil Within, etc)
Those arnt really survival games. Try ark
Richard Strait those are. They’re classified under survival/survival horror. Ark is Open World Survival RPG
@@joshm8952 Kay.
Bruh I've played last of us on its toughest difficulty with no deaths.
Same here. Grounded was light work.
Great video Rob! I only ever get to stage 3 nowadays. When I was younger I was a stage 7 at CoD, but not anymore!!
If you need some help Oxide's Ghosts, Penta Penguin is a pretty good time trial driver (unlock: Hold L1 and R1 and press Down, Right, Triangle, Down , Left, Triangle, Up)
I’ve beat dark souls 3 and I gave myself a high five
It's a great game! Fine Work, Skeleton!
i dunno why people think dark souls 3 is hard?, but congratz on your victory.
I believe it is hard but it’s also more of a learning gap, you just have to play it for a while and you’ll get good at it, it’s more of just a patience game, it’s very hard to pick up I actually quit the game for a year but I came back to it and beat it although nameless king took me quite a while to beat because he kills you in about two hits most of the time
@@cuentaalterna3754 Ds3 is harder than Des, Ds1,Ds2(base) and BB. The only games harder than Ds3 are Ds2 SotFS and Sekiro. And I finished all of these games more than ten times each so I know what I am talking about.
stage 7 borderlands 1,2 and pre sequel player, very much looking forward to mastering borderlands 3
I was about to drop playing CTR to finish other games I bought with the psn summer sale. But you Rob! You brought back my ambitious instinct to git gud with a u at CTR and get that platinum trophy before finishing any other game!
Best Friday feature in a long time keep up the good work rob
Does retro games count? My best is Sly Cooper 1-4. Is it weird for a girl to play these games at least 200+ times over and over lol.
I enjoy the story and gameplay, if Sly had multiplayer I'd be in the top 5, waiting for Sly 5!
Not at all. Heck, I would argue loving a game is the best motivation to complete /platinum a game.
At least that's how I decide if I gonna for 100% or not ^^
Absolutely. Afterall, CTR NF is a remake of a 20-year-old PS1 game.
i miss cheat codes, i could feel like im GUD without putting work or effort in
You filthy casual!
Jk, I quite miss the gamegenie and gameshark days myself.
“The fog of noobdom” is now one of my favourite sayings. Nice vid my dude
I am becoming more and more convinced that Rob is creating a new genre of poetry, gaming prose :p
God of War's (2018) Sigrun is one of the hardest bosses of all-time.
Don't @ me.
imo ishin the saint sword from sekrio is the hardest boss in gaming
@@joker10064 i found owl and demon of hatred way harder tbh
Im a solid stage 3 gamer with only one platinum. Horizon Zero Dawn cuz its an easy one. 🤣
Ummm, EASY??!?! have you done the Frozen Wilds?! I actually broke my controller by throwing it at the wall during the Cheiftan's Trial.
princessthyemis All platinums are hard but Horizon dawn is easy compared to others
Sean C mine’s in Spider-Man
My god, this was AWESOME! hahahhaa And fun too. Thanks a lot guys. xD You're so entertaining.
Stage 8: being so gud that you create artificial difficulties like playing with a dance pad on a no death run
In Persona 5, after 100 hours, I'm still at stage 2. I play on easy and can't beat the damn thing
Just managed to get the platinum trophy myself on CTR last Saturday. Hard fought and well proud of that trophy. Keep at it, Rob Oxide can be beat!
Hello! You've caught me appreciating how far Rob has come with these Friday Features! In the beginning, they were simple and basically the same every week! Now, we see him delving into the proverbial matrix of a gamers psyche to dissect why exactly some of us suck at vide games.
I love this channel. Good job friends.
Love the content Rob
I've been waiting for a video like that
I went through all of the steps with FFVIII, Kingdom Hearts, and Devil May Cry 3 back in the day.
I have felt your pain Rob XD I finally got the plat on CTR and Dragon Mines was the last track I beat on the time trials lol good luck dude! My tip would be to build up as much speed as possible before the spiral, then press square, down and right on the spiral part (without accelerating) ...made all the difference for Me!
3:50 - 4:22 kinda gave me goosebumps lol combo of music and his voice sounded so epic
I've come to stage 7 at RE2 Remake, all Dark Souls games, Tekken 7 online ranked matches, and even at FF 14.
that includes S+ Rank in hardcore difficulty on RE2, and clearing the savage and extreme content on FF 14.
what i do is not be smug about it, but actually help others get there.
great video, as usual.
Stage 8 is just an addiction to gitting gud one that makes you play all your games at the hardest settings in a hope of reaching that blissful feeling of being challenged and gitting gud again.
I get to stage 5 at least regularly. This is the definition of an above average gamer. PvP in games you're a contender but there'll still be people better than you here an there, but pve wise you've got more than enough to have fun with. It doesn't really matter what stage you're at though. It just matters if you're wearing a smile whatever, or however you're playing 🙂
Has Rob ever done a 7 stages of gaming rage?
Mine would be:
1. Wry grin in appreciation of a difficult game
2. Sharp intakes of breath when almost achieving something
3. Puffing out cheeks
4. Loudly sighing to myself
5. Growling and hitting a nearby cushion
6. Shouting 'why' and slapping the floor
7. Switching off the Playstation
Another Friday, another visit from Rob detailing his ramblings of playstation, Wouldnt have it any other way😊
love you guys!!!
I'm like rob. I never finished any souls game yet. I don't like a challenge in games. I like relaxing, easy games that i play through without investing a ridiculus amount of time in it. But this video encouraged me to download dark souls again to give it another try.
Don't get flustered and just immerse yourself. The games are extremely rewarding, and you will git gud and you'll wonder how you found them that bad in the first place. Sekiro is great too.
