“You can fly but you should still climb to conserve your stami-“
“FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP”
To be fair, he started climbing to conserve his stamina the moment it was actually important.
Wait, if Claire is a bird, that makes the Jon being a carton of eggs thing a bit awkward.
He's the carton, not the eggs. How do you think he gets the eggs?
... Oh no
Oh my god it's the Freud thing all over again...
As in who came first...?
@@ManyATrueNerd "Claire, we didn't think this joke through to include adorable games over five years down the line!"
Jon to video game character Claire: “Good work, Claire!”
Jon to his actual partner and only employee Claire: “You are terrible at everything”
🤔
There is no Jon, its Claire using an Eddy Izzard voice changer.... spooky
@@dthomaswilliamson33 I have no doubt that Claire gets her revenge on him slowly. Just a grain of arsenic in his food daily. Not killing him, just making him weak, needy, appreciative. It's a long con. She gets hers.
Rewatch the Carcassonne video for some satisfaction!
“Sticks might not be for murder, they might be for camping”. Bit of a gear shift from the kill everything runs Jon?
Lines like this remind me that more often than not, Jon is the true villain of the stories on this channel.
The art style screams Animal Crossing, even the fish and the digging spots look the same. I've just started the video and I'm liking the game already.
And the money rock.
The video doesn't do the pixelation effect justice--when I played it, the default setting reminded me heavily of Animal Crossing: Wild World on the DS.
"Sticks might not be for murder, they may be for camping." Truer words have never been spoken.
I don't know if y'all missed it, but the "games don't even work offline" salt in the cellphone description is too real.
I feel like Claire in real life keeps turning around whenever Jon says Claire, so she’s constantly just looking over.
"my friend Bill' - as in, a ducks bill???
nothing from anybody? ok then...
This game cheated! It was all nice and charming. Then at the end, Claire gets a call from her Mom that was eerily similar to a recent conversation I've had with mine. And suddenly I'm crying. God damned game.
Here’s wishing your mom is well.
Mr mouse looks an awful lot like a goat
agreed
yep. goat.
It's MrSundayMovies
I'M NOT CRYING, YOU'RE CRYING
YOU'RE GOSH DAMN RIGHT I'M CRYING
BUT I'M PRETTY SURE YOU ARE TOO
Damn those ninjas cutting onions...
>"Whatever money's good for"
Money's used to pay for goods and services!
Such a good game/video. The devs really nailed what they were going for.
Jon finds all of the “valuable moral lessons,” none of which were actually in the game
When he got the money from the rock with the shovel, I didn't realize that was an Animal Crossing reference until the main character mentioned it at the end.
Ahhh, so this was the game Jon talked about while mentioning adding it to the list of best games of the last year :) everything is clear now!
What's his channel's name?
@@jonathancanas2600 whose channel? If you mean Jon's channel. Then.... This channel.
It is slowly dawning on me that this game is using animal crossing aesthetics and possibly mechanics and I'm gradually getting more excited
Ohh, that ending. It brings back memories of being stuck at scout camp while my dad ended up in the hospital. Spending days trying to get a call through the one phone at the camp to try to find out how he's doing...
Archipelago: "a group of small islands or an area of sea in which there are many small islands". Yes Jon, that ridge you just got up on is definitely an archipelago.
John: "This is so damn wholesome!"
Literally the next line in the game: "There's a graveyard in the shadow of the mountain."
By the way, the red headband questline was incredibly wholesome and made me feel so many warm fuzzy feelings :)
This is the most wholesome and adorable thing. I need more of this in my life.
When the pixelation is at it's default level, it looks like a DS game and I love that.
Jon, you're really missing out on not buying the scalper's golden feathers. It's worth the five minutes of going back and checking out their story.
And to anyone else picking this up, continue exploring the island after hitting the peak, it's a pleasant experience and Jon absolutely missed a couple of cool things.
For sure a 2019 GOTY.
The first thing I thought of when I saw that intro was “FAITH”, and then I realised I literally could not be more wrong.
Isn’t that a horror game? Or maybe it was the “what I’m about to do has not been approved by the Vatican” one?
I'm really glad I got to experience this with you, Jon.
You know, this isn't generally my sort of game, but I turned it on and just... watched. And next thing I know I've been watching for an hour, and I feel really chill right now. So... yeah. I'm glad I clicked on this one.
4:49 oh jon, never change
Jon's perception stat was boosted for this one. I didn't scream at the screen very often at all!
It is crazy, 2019 had such simple yet beautiful games. Jon, Thank You for playing this game, I would have never had experienced or heard of this game without you.
The developer of this game talked about his throught process on a video made by GDC. I came to you after watching that. Quite interesting.
Okay, this was the most lovely game I've seen in a long time.
I think I need to call my mum.
This feels like the Whiterun-Ivarstead hike.
Oh my God. Someone created the Many À True Nerding game
If you liked this, look out for a game called "Perfect Tides" coming out this year.
Having a bad evening and this is doing well at keeping my spirits up. Thank you for all your videos, Jon, may your cheer never fail.
I’m glad that you recommended this one today because it’s just so sweet and I’m sorry that I never saw it before!!
It doesn't matter what pixel setting he's got on if you watch in 144p! *evil laugh
Jon's perception was surprisingly good this time around!
Thank you for the Monday recommendation! Sorry I couldn't get to it until now :(
This game made me cry! My mom had a very similar experience right before covid hit. She told me about the surgery, but she didn't tell me what they found during it until way later. She says she didn't tell me about the cancer or that she was on chemo while I was at school because she didn't want me to worry. Thankfully, she's doing really great now. All her test results are coming back perfect and she's been done with chemo! She actually got off just in time for her immune system to handle getting vaccinated :)
My short hike was going to my best friend's house and watching Star Trek with him while I cuddled with his dog. Not quite the same, but this game did make me feel those same sort of bittersweet emotions, which is why I cried. Thank you for sharing this experience with us
Jon just attacking my heart with this. That was lovely.
I didn't expect to cry during this video, but I'm not complaining. What a bloody wonderful game
This really just makes me want to dig for fossils and see what Tom Nook is selling.
I think that was the most beautiful game I've ever seen. I feel so much happier and at peace having watched this video.
I'm a little sad you never did get to see the "gouger's" storyline because it was actually very sweet, but I greatly enjoyed watching your short playthrough of this game!
so cute how genuinely excited and proud you were to have those five feathers :)
*adds yet another game to an ever-growing wishlist* Thanks, Jon!
This looks too charming to not stop watching now and buy it so I can experience it myself.
Great game, nice playthrough. I do have a slight criticism, in that to really hear the music, I had to turn the volume up significantly... which would be fine, except at that level, my whole house could hear what you were saying. I'm sure there are a bunch of secrets still hidden in the game. It rewards exploration just the right way; I'm always curious to see what's around the next corner. A peaceful, enjoyable experience.
...I do actually feel a little cleaner just from watching.
What a lovely game. Last time I felt emotions like that was during of Last of Us, especially the DLC. - Won't spoil it as Jon hasn't played it yet, I can't wait to see when he does the series before Last of us 2 comes out.
I am sure he is just waiting for the PC release...
I'm actually doing the Last of Us series right now if you wanna check me out!! :)
Did not expect that emotional rollercoaster
Loved it when it came out - such a charming little game.
24:34 If that thing was a mouse Jon, then it must have been a Grey Seer.
I've been fishing once. Being patient and waiting is definitely how it is.
Oh man, should I watch this? I own the game but haven't got around to it yet...
Definitely play the game first - it's not long, and it's a great experience.
@@ManyATrueNerd Thank you! Will do then.
That is clearly a Ram, Jon, not a mouse. Note the horizontal pupils....and the horns.
Dammit, game... the most beautiful graffiti I ever saw was in Edinburgh: "Call your mom, she loves you".
I loved the animal crossing reference with the "money rock"
And the X-shaped digging spots. That just screams Animal Crossing.
I loved this. Its awesome when you play games with a feel good tone!
I'm so glad this channel got what it needed most... Dragon age jokes! Yaaaaay
Awww this is so cute. And the dialogues are very well scripted, had me smile a few times!
Amazing game and amazing playthrough. I did not expect the end.
I honestly like the story with the scalper if you buy a feather and ask them why they're selling them upcharged, their whole situation is honestly way too true and made me rather emotional T~T
When he was on top of that building standing right next to a gold feather... oh Jon -1
your commentary is GOLD XD
I AUDIBLY gasped when I saw this video :O I love this game DEARLY
WARNING! SPOILERS FOR THE GAME'S ENDING AHEAD, DON'T READ BEFORE WATCHING THE VIDEO.
The similarities between Claire's reaction to her mother not telling her she's getting surgery hit really close to my own mom not telling me she was getting cancer surgury. The feels are strong with this one.
This video was a true joy, Jon.
I bought this game because of Jon! It's awesome :)
headband looked like it was at the lighthouse.. a yellow thing tied to a rock or something
I also enjoyed this game. Lots of little things to enjoy.
I think I gotta go call my mom now.
I'm having a feeling of Deja vu. Hmmm....
It's an hour long, that is a short hike.
Oh that looks nice and relaxing. I'll add that to my basket
This game is so adorable.
Loving it. Absolutely perfect. Now, for the sake of fudge, finish Outer Wilds. Please?
This looks adorable!
It gave me NITW vibes (which I adored) because of the cute art, witty dialogue, and good music. If anyone knows any more games like these plz share 🥺🥺
The ranger goat's name is Jon!
I'm absolutely amazed that the 'max pixelation' setting Jon is playing on is "not recommended" and hidden in the advanced section. The standard pixelation looks absolutely terrible. 😯
An absolute treasure. Go to itch and buy it for a few coins. It is a joy to play.
All birds are indeed related. In fact, im even related to the banana im eating. Dont know if that makes this cannibalism, incest, fratricide or if thats just a case of overthinking things.
Is it wrong that as soon as you got the shovel I wanted you to dig up the frogs' sandcastle? 🐸🏖️🏰🕳️♠️😈
Ok we definitely had the same instinct in the graveyard! ☠️
that was a very enjoyable game.
Im getting such strong Animal Crossing vibes. Especially from the fish and the pits
Absolutely loved this!
@08:30 (ish) "What of it?!" Ah... that T-34 tone of voice. How I've missed you T-34.
@18:20 (ish) I'm a big fan of the Duck's friend being called Bill, I think Jon missed that joke (if it was even intended as a joke and not just coincidence, given the tone of this game I suspect a joke).
"I'm going to get myself gouged by the arsehole"
- MATN 2020 -
this game is fun
I wonder if i could get my name legally changed to Captain Duck.
Thank you
What a sweet game.
I like how it looks like the ds legend of Zelda games
oh god this has such a twinsen's odyssey vibe
I think I have seen, this but maybe I haven’t, no matter what this will be good. I agree Jon better to be master of one, then jack of all trades in games. At the end oh my god that is right in the fields.
Say hello to everybirdy..
Ah! I didn’t need all those feels at the end damnit! ; ~ ;
Why do I have a 4K screen, 300mbit Internet connection and I can count the pixels???
Well, because the content is great!
Oh my eyes are peeing
