It is in the world of kenshi. The date is unknown, as is the location. A high ranking official is uneasy, as he always is, scanning every possible face for any sign of an attack. It is not the first time an assassin has been after him. Experience has seasoned this old man, and as he scans the passerby’s, he notices one who does not belong. A man trying to conceal a weapon and attempting to approach slowly. He quickly and effortlessly disables and kills the man, before he realizes he has been caught. But the man does not relax. He vigilantly watches the crowds. If there was one, whats to say there weren’t 2? Unfortunately, the old man could not determine the assassins partner. It was not the man at the back of the crowd, or the group of crabs quickly approaching him, or even the man leading them, who was charging full speed, directly at him. This assassins skill was too high for this mere mortal. Suddenly, the man realized something. His field of view was changing. It was shifting. It was almost sliding.... to the right? The man realized to late that he had been decapitated, still unable to find this skilled assassin. In his last moments, he thought of everyone he saw once more. Was it the man at the back after all? Or maybe it was the crab leader who now stands over him, bloody sword in hand? No, it couldn’t be. Then....who was.....i....i..... And so he died. Legends of this remarkable assassination would be passed on for generations, as even the surrounding crowd who watched the mans head fall off were completely oblivious to his killer. could it have been a well placed arrow? Where did the man in the back go? Could the crab leader who is currently sprinting away, with a trail of blood following him, be the culprit? No one knew... Or so the legend says.
Swimming in heavy armor is easier than it sounds, if you're wearing it right and used to moving around while armored. And if you're not swimming too far-it's about as exhausting as it sounds.
This line absolutely cracks me up. I think it’s just the way that no meaningful observation is made whatsoever. We have already established that there will be crabs. It is very readily apparently that this is, in fact, an unusual amount of crabs to have in Kenshi. AA and I have understood eachother perfectly already. This line is simply a very gentle reminder, 10 seconds into the video, that today there will be an abnormal amount of crabs. No explanation is given. We shall just have to accept it.
@@MidoriOfTheShuinsen Some jackass blew up an alien and the dust from its corpse lead to the death of all humans Nvm that was neir ....why did i think that was kenshi?
@@MidoriOfTheShuinsen kenshi is an alien world that was conquered and terraformed by a galactic human empire. At some point their robot slaves revolted and conquered Kenshi, leading to their orbital weapons systems and bio-warfare being used which made the whole planet practically uninhabitable. Robots eventually became insane and got overthrown by their human slaves.
"Normally, in Kenshi, you don't have this many crabs. But today, we will!" How can such a simple, unemotional, statement of fact, be such comedic genius?
And runs like these are why I love kenshi so much. go from building impenetrable amphibious strongholds, to making ridiculous builds where you catch animals to make an animal army
didn't really think i'd watch an army of crabs razing a slave camp to the ground while the classical rendition of the US anthem is blaring, but here we are today
Man, I swear. You feel like the love child of TheSpiffingBrit and Ssethtzeentach. You have both of their mannerisms in spades and it's... just... so unique.
Your videos are one of the things that make me love the Kenshi modding platform. When you come uo with these crazy ideas i can easily decide "i need to try this." And after an hour or so of work make it happen.
This game is one of the most janky experiences I've every played, and yet it was one of the best sandbox experiences I've played. It managed to make survival in the wild exciting and hard at the same time, whilst rewarding exploration. The first few sessions were frustrating as hell - even annoying at times, but once you manage to overcome the issues and learn to just hide whenever cannibals come for a visit it starts to get fun. Then, eventually you'll master combat by beating up starving raiders and at some point even those annoying as fuck cannibals can't harm you any longer.
I sometimes think: "Why am I doing this with my life?" Then I hear "optimal crustacean strike." Yes. I want this. I'll have it, like a well done crab, smothered in gooey butter and slightly steaming. So many pots to boil, until I arrive on the other Crab. See you there, AmbiguousAmphibian. :) Maybe we'll do lunch. :D
You can rescue the crabs by saving with your camera somewhere safe, then reloading with "reset squad position" or something like that checked. It'll move the whole squad to the camera on reload.
Never have I been as proud to be an American as when I witnessed an army of gargantuan crustaceans clip through walls while committing bloody conquest.
Someday, when Mr Krab tm becomes old and frail, he shall pass on his worldly possessions to Mu and off Mu will go to raise the next generation... A generation of 200+ crabs!
I enjoy how well the sentence "Mr. Krab received a small loan of a million dollars from an ambiguous amphibian" sounds out of context, and its kinda wild in context too lol XD
This is the very specific CRAB-based content that I subscribed to. Months ago. When there were no crabs. But I believed. That there would be CRABS. And I was right. Because I am a prophet. Of CRABS.
I remember my first modded co-op playthrough of Rimworld. We had a psychotic, nudist, hobo Joe Biden go berserk and start shanking our livestock, so we sent Mecha Xi Jinping to save him before he got eaten alive by our genetically modified combat chickens. We also found a rabbit who was actually a human being that had been transformed by dark magic of some sort; we recruited the rabbit, armed it with Hobo Biden's confiscated knife, effectively turning it into the Black Beast of Caerbanog (it had 18 Melee somehow), and placed it in command of the Automated Hamster Artillery Network that protected our colony's outer perimeter. Good times.
for what its worth you're by far my favorite youtuber and the only streamer i watch. I much prefer to play the games my self but i cant help but laugh my head off at every video you post thank you for what you do.
I woke up today, and wanted to start up Kenshi since I've slowly let my depression tear me away from one of my all time favorite games. I've been spiraling into the darkness of the abyss known as my mind and short of death itself, I thought nothing could shine the light on me and pull me out of the leftover rotten heap. But here, the God's gave me hope with this Ambiguous Amphibian video and the light of the heavens have united my shattered faculties and uplifted me into my younger, more hopeful and formidable mind state. Glory to the state of the crabs. Tip: You can use your human character to pick up crabs that get stuck. Or you can move your human character over to a big free area, save the game. Then reload it and make sure you check the box that asks if you want to move your squads. It'll relocate them to the new area you saved over when you load it up.
I'm not sure if you know this, but you can shift click on the medic button to set it as a job so your people will automatically heal anyone that's low after combat. Saves a lot of microing and headaches when you do that with big groups lol.
Mr Krab at last could lay his mind at ease, no longer haunted by the memory of his fleshy son and wife; the crabs are his children now - multitudinous and strong

i never thought the sentence normal crab velocities could make me smile so much
Been quoting that phrase at work recently (I work behind a seafood counter) because it's been a little slow
If you have a crab problem like this, you should probably see a doctor. Maybe several.
Edit: Definitely several. Armed with swords.
one doctor for each crab
Dr Krabs is the father to our protagonist
Also with their own smaller crabs
Is that a threat or a promise?
Several armed doctors, for one crab if possible

"Normal Crab Velocities" is the name of my new math rock band.

It was about here that the word "crab" stopped sounding like a real word.
Technically, all words are just collections of sounds strung together to create a determined meaning, so there's no such thing as a "fake" word.
Every sound and spelling that currently has no meaning is a fake word, go home Saussure.

Ah yes, Mr. Crab. Famous for his catchphrase, “It’s always crab before the crab”
Kenshi is such a strange and wonderful game. Yes many things about it are shall we say, 'unrefined'. But good lord is it fantastic. What a unique gem
Move over Michelangelo, this, THIS, is true art!
It's weird, the word crab just lost it's meaning and looks foreign to me.
ohman that is sooo interesting when that happens!
I have heard the word “crab” so many times, it no longer sounds like a real word.
Move camera to ocean, save, and check "reset squad position" to load. It will center all units on camera position when the game loads.
