Thanks to your advice my child is now using the computer all day! And I really believe that nothing can go badly when he is left to explore on his own😊
RT is making such a TH-cam moment when he’s Internet Exploring without actually using Internet Explorer and instead using Google Chrome. *I’m contacting my lawyers.*
This hit me in my bones. Almost every single thing in this video was an integral part of my childhood. I was not expexting this nostalgia trip but it was so nice seeing someone in 2023 finding novelty and joy in things that i was enjoying in 2013. Edit: im 21 now just fyi lmao
I'm the same age as Dan, and only know about it because of kid siblings. For stuff most people found on like Cool Math Games, you mostly had to be going to school at a certain time to be forced to play those instead of like...idk, Red Dead Redemption?
There's about a five-year period where that game was popular, and even then, only in school culture, and even then, primarily in America. It might have been a big part of your childhood, but anyone outside of any of these conditions is much less likely to have heard of it.
I got some pretty unfortunate news today. I have to sell my horse and I thought I would have another year with him, but it’s just not in the cards. I really needed something to cheer me up, and this definitely helps. Thanks RT.
My favorite solution to the trolley problem was some vid where they gave it to a toddler with one of those wooden trains, tracks, and pawn-people. The toddler moved the one person to the track with multiple people, then smashed the hell out of them. That there's a kid suited to be a Russian military officer. Or a middle manager.
After seeing RT glance at some... "sketchy" sites, I think he should try some Windows Destructions, similar to what Vargskelethor Joel does. The difference is that we get a confused Irishman instead of a giggly Swede
You know you’re old when some of the stuff you enjoyed as a kid doesn’t exist on the internet anymore (I will forever remember you obscure flash game sites, TH-cam channels, and fanfics)
Nice job with that sliding puzzle lol. Although to be fair, when I was a kid back in the 80s I had a 4x4 tile Epcot themed one of those for car rides and got very good at it. It was a simpler age, when _most_ of the things you gave your kids in the car so they'd shut up and not kill each other were analog. If you were really lucky you'd get something electronic, like a Tiger Electronics LCD game or a stupid-ass Speak'n'Spell. I wonder if they still make Speak'n'Spells? I imagine tablets and smart phones murdered them in their sleep.
You just unlocked a part of my brain that has been dormant for at least 5 years I miss these sites, they're not the same when you're not wasting school time to play them

even his "they used to call me the drift king back in college" is such a dad/grandpa thing to say when they brag about their hay days
Plus his overall humour and vibes are very much like a dad thats working as an entertainer XD
I'm just glad more people understand instead of just calling us weird for the roleplay 😂
ACE FLAG!!
I'm pretty sure all of that started because someone misspelled Dan to Dad and chat just rolled with it.

As a Fireboy and Watergirl enjoyer I agree

I’m so happy “my pet named Steve” is still there after Markiplier’s video with Google feud.😂
I was about to comment this haha! It makes me so happy haha. Pet named Steve was the funniest thing haha
Pet named Steve still lives on to this day.
I was so glad I had just swallowed a mouthful of water right before that answer came up! 😅
I just rewatched his video and I can’t believe it’s SEVEN YEARS OLD
The fact that a pet named Steve is still on Google feud after all these years shows how much influence markiplier has on the game 😂
I cant believe a pet named Steve is still on google feud

I hope RT revisits the Impossible Quiz. If you have played it, you know what is coming for him past the first question...
I know
Good lord I know
beat it a long time ago. Don't remember the questions but I remember the pain
@@HazeEmry i got very good at like the first 60, but never beat it
Seeing "pet named steve" as a genuine answer in Google Feud gave me flashbacks, that's incredible
Markiplier
I'm genuinely shocked that RT didn't know about Fireboy and Watergirl.
Personally I dont expect outside of Zoomers to really know what that is
I know right! I mean I understand not knowing Wordle, but Fireboy and Watergirl? did he even have a childhood???

RT is console gamer since his childhood so telling him that game looks new to him apparently.
As it turns out, Pokémon is an integral part of Dan’s psyche
2:03 "limited to somones imagination" THAT'S LITERALLY LIMITLESS
Purely youtube-watchers will never know our fear when he said he ACCIDENTALLY DELETED the vod for this
Yeah, couldn't find it on Twitch. Hopefully he saved it and can upload to the archive channel

I really hope he did have a backup for the archive, I really want to watch the full thing. Looks like so much fun.
@@ladynoveldragon7505 considering we have an edited down version of the video, he probably has the full one somewhere!

That "NAME ALL POKEMON" could be fun as a "Chat vs. Chat" activity with Doug or Failboat
oh, ABSOLUTELY.
In the Doug vs Ludwig stream, they did a challenge with their twitch chats similar to this but it was only 1 generation at a time
I cannot believe RT has been alive for 50 years and didn’t know what Fireboy and Watergirl was
I actually want to watch RT show off his Pokemon knowledge in an hour-long video
Ironically, this is some prime Twitch streaming content. Chat gets to interact, and everyone has fun.
7:20
The thought of the optimal RTGame viewer just being a dude in his 40s drinking whisky and smoking is so funny
Don't forget doing it completely bare-assed lmao, peak culture right there.
I relate to Dan very hard on having so much brain space dedicated to just knowing every single pokemon
I also have the majority of my brain devoted to Pokémon. And that is just as healthy as it sounds.
This video is great. You should do more stuff like this, chilling out with chat, cracking jokes, and exploring random “TH-cam” on the internet.
watching the pokedexes populate was the best part of my week
6:02 Nice to know Markiplier has left a permanent mark on google feud.
Mr. Rogers not being one of the google feud answers is heartbreaking
That minecraft article was pure gold
I can't believe the pet named steve is still a thing, OMG
My favorite part of Internet Explorer was when RT said "It's explorin' time" and crashed to bios
Five hundred n' some change likes and NO comments, here take this. Have a good day.

peak rtgame content

This is honestly my fav version of this I’ve ever seen, bravo 🎉
i love videos like this where RT just does random stuff on his computer, like this and the password game are already some of the best of this year
Man, I miss being able to find fun websites or helpful results without first having to dig through mountains of AI excrements and shovelware blogs...
Rt: back in my days!
Chat: sure dad time to sleep.
This is like hanging out with your friends on discord late at night and just searching random shit on the internet
I got some pretty unfortunate news today. I have to sell my horse and I thought I would have another year with him, but it’s just not in the cards. I really needed something to cheer me up, and this definitely helps. Thanks RT.
"Get addicted to chatting with friends"
Said the guy addicted to oxygen and water
If he does this again, I totally wanna see him browse the modern versions of MySpace and GeoCities (SpaceHey and NeoCities respectively).
this feels like an rt vid from 2019. and i mean that in the best possible way. this is fantastix

idk what's worse rt not knowing some of the kings of flash games or rt browsing without adblock
I without joking own that book. Was left behind in my office desk by the old user
RT running into the pet named Steve jokes so many years later makes me feel old
the fact that 'my pet named steve' is still goin makes me so happy :,)
I could ALSO do those Pokémon quizzes all day and it is incredibly validating to watch Dan spend so much time on it
Some of my favorite RT videos are honestly him doing something extremely random like this yet still making it highly entertaining
(I love the Terrible Stream Premises playlist)
One step closer to RT's first Windows destruction
It’s amazing to know Daniel can make anything hilarious, even a search engine.
My favorite videos are the ones where Dan js just doing the most random shit, like the bad quizzes video or paint drying
You know you’re old when some of the stuff you enjoyed as a kid doesn’t exist on the internet anymore (I will forever remember you obscure flash game sites, TH-cam channels, and fanfics)

I'm seriously impressed with Dan's knowledge of Pokemon.
Dan doesn't think about the Roman Empire, just Pokemon 😂
the fact that "a pet named steve" is still a google feud answer after all this time is truly beautiful
I actually own the book "How to Survive a Garden Gnome Attack"... It's saved my life countless times now
You just unlocked a part of my brain that has been dormant for at least 5 years

6:02 LMAO MARKS VIEWERS ACTUALLY DID IT MAD LADS
RT failing the first level of fireboy and watergirl has made me realize that god has abandoned us
how the hell does he have so many of the pokemon sounds memorized like that. that’s insane
unsure if this will resonate with anybody but i've always wanted to see rt play loz skyward sword and the music at 3:50 truly enhances this need
Dan playing Who's That Pokèmon is relatable as hell, I literally spent like 4 hours playing it myself and hit a streak of over 100
I used to play this online version of Terraria when I was bored and had nothing else to do. Those were the days.
He really can just name them all day huh
The "pet named steve" for google feud is inspired an answer markiplier jokingly put on his very old google feud series
Dicking around on the internet is my favorite genre of video ever
Seeing Dan do everything kid me did when I was really bored in school is weirdly fun.
The fact that nobody brought him to I Has A Bucket is truly devastating.
I actually have that book about cat gun safety. My favourite piece of advice is that you need at least a .22 caliber bullet to shoot a ghost
Non ironically probably the most I’ve enjoyed a rtgame vid in a little while
New title: rtgame relives our childhoods
As soon as I saw Google Feud, I knew it was matter of time until "a pet named steve" lol dammit, Markiplier
8:24 NEW ZEALAND MENTIONED LETS GOOOO
When it asked for Mr., I got ptsd from Jschlatt
thank you rt for showing me a free and easy way to download more ram
Can't wait to see how many sites were overwhelmed with traffic in the archive
i cant believe he just explored the internet as content
Raft Wars will always be the pinnacle of the old internet for me.
Can't wait to see how he turns the whole internet into just the drift king
9:41 The barrel roll reminds me of when you search the word "cat"
