She's actually Daphne's mother, and Dirk's mother in law, (Since Daphne and Dirk are married in this game when they had all those adorable kids, that takes place 10 years after the events of the first "Dragon's Lair" game) who's mad at Dirk (and for whatever reason it seems like she blames him for her kidnapping) and wants to straight up kill him since Daphne got kidnapped and basically says to find her or Dirk will be dead meat during the cutscenes showing her trying to attack Dirk. XD (But yeah, she shouldn't blame and be mad and go all out to attack Dirk for her kidnapping, (but yeah, I don't blame her taking her anger out on Dirk since he's the only one that can rescue her, and she wants him to find her, and for her to stop getting kidnapped), but she should blame and be really mad at Mordecc since he kidnapped her in the first place, straight up FORCED Daphne to marry him, and turned her into this hideous and ugly monster.

@@jag6262 Sorry for the late comment. The only excuse I've got is that they're too busy focusing on what button they need to press. This was their problem in the first game too, they couldn't pay attention to the action going on because they're too busy focusing on keeping the game going. I don't blame them
This is one of those movies (let's be honest it's an incredible short-film masked as a game) that makes me desperately miss 2D hand-drawn animated movies.
Dan you did a great job. You flew through those long scenarios so quickly on a blind playthrough. If either of you knew to watch for the items in the first place im certain you could've aced the game within the half hour. Thanks for playing these games.
What, would that just be two lines about going on an epic quest, followed by them getting distracted and singing about how hot Daphne is for the remaining 2 minutes of the song? ... I actually kinda want that, now that I think about it.
I'm becoming a yoga instructor only for the purpose of teaching the downward dog, then telling them to now try updog. When they ask what is updog, I will immediately retire.
You know what the worst part is? I think one of the treasures is INSIDE ONE OF THE CAT'S MOUTHS as it's SPITTING FIRE. So not only would your reflexes tell you to go the other way instead of getting the treasure, but it's actually virtually impossible to see it light up against the flames.
I remember finding that one on complete accident where I panicked and pressed towards the cat. Imagine my surprise that I found a key piece to beat the game.
" I love these two, together" Danny, if you and Ashley are still strong by Halloween, please go as Dirk and Daphne. Hell, just cosplay them right now. Please.
Thank you for not being a sarcastic jerk about this!

Can we get more 2d animation these days? I get 3d is easier so thats what everyone defaults to but seriously 2d is so much more expressive and subject to art styles, its beautiful
Check out anime. Newer ones use almost exclusively 2D animation done trough computer graphic. They are amazingly fluid and detailed (when they don't cut corners). Makes me wonder how drop-dead gorgeous anime would look if each episode had the same budget of western cartoons of today.
Sadly, these days people constantly make the stupid assumption that traditional 2d animation "Is Dead", and treat animation as if it were a form of Technology instead of a medium of Art.
@@nickoftime602 I think it's less that 2D animation is "too expensive", and more that major entertainment companies these days (namely the ones here in America) are too cheap.
@@nickoftime602 That's blatantly incorrect. CGI animation is much more expensive than hand drawn animation if done with high quality and at worst only matches the price(just compare the budgets of CGI animated movies to hand drawn animation). The issue is actually that audiences just don't care about 2D animation on a global scale and so outside of certain localities that do like it(Japan, and even then Japan gets by with backbreaking labor hours that wouldn't fly in America) it's nowhere near as profitable. If people on a global scale actually watched 2D animation then it'd make a comeback, but they don't.
In one sense yes, because you're constantly chasing down Daphne and the Wizard, but on the other hand the levels in the first one were more cohesive since they were all set in the same evil tower.
You can turn off the random scenes in the first one and I think it plays out like normal, if you rewatch Dan even goes over the option and leaves it on random.
I like the first one better because there was something different everytime. Kept things fresh but it needed work. I like the frequent checkpoints in 2.
Arin never listens to games..like ever like he has numerous occasions of screaming “idk how am I supposed to know to do that this game sucks” like immediately after the game tells him exactly what to do and where to go
Hahaha i mean at this point, it doesnt even phase me in the recent twilight princess it was like "the sword is INSIDE THE HOUSE" literally in bold colored font & literally .2 seconds later.. Arin: Okay so.. does he have the sword? where is it? wtf? and spends like 10 minutes sneaking around getting busted by the guy before going over to the house haha its in every series
Hell hath no fury like a mama bear! Good for her but I think her anger is misdirected 😅 my mom is quite the petite lady but I fear the damage she'd cause if someone was dilly-dallying getting me away from a forced marriage

Dan: *literally stressing out with everything that's happening on the screen* The game: *Beethoven playing a piano in the sky while his cat is chasing a little man jumping on physics defying objects* Arin: look at that water, that water looks amazing
I’m so glad they watched through all the scenes like that! I forget how impressive this animation is during the gameplay, and I really liked Arin and Dan’s commentary 🙌🏻
I was too busy wondering when he was gonna come down. When was he going to land? Maybe he should have stayed on the farm, and should have listen to his old man.
I'm pretty sure one of the items in the Beethoven stage was in the cat's fire breath too, glowing the same as the fire, if I remember correctly. That's an extremely cruel trick to hide it in something that looks exactly the same, I definitely don't blame them for passing on the items and just watching it.
@@cupriferouscatalyst3708 And there was so much shit going on how could Dan catch them all? Dude could barely look up to even catch the wonderful animations.
@@Kimshu6 I mean, we wouldn't know if it happened, and in a world with evil wizards AND time machines the idea of Alice in Wonderland having happened isn't that weird, also the garden of eden i guess
To clarify: Disney does not own Alice in Wonderland. The original Alice books (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There) were written in 1865 and 1871 respectively. The books are in the public domain, so anyone can use those characters, or make adaptations of Alice. Disney owns the rights to their VERSIONS of the Alice characters, but they don't own the rights to the books or characters themselves because they are in the public domain. This is just Don Bluths version of the characters.
31:10 for reference - Assuming this is what you were talking about, Arin was saying basically "This just transported him in space, not time - the ancient Egyptians are already ancient, so there was no time travel involved".
@@Reisen_Inaba I don't say this to shit on arin's observations but just cuz I feel like it: There were still periods of what we call ancient egyptian history in which the ancient egyptians were living around what was still, even to them, 'ancient egyptian' architecture... I mean, it obviously wasn't quite like this, but still just an interesting thought.
Yeah, definitely interesting that almost all 2d animation has gone out the window but 2d games still regularly exist even for just the look. You think there would be even more of that in movies considering what you see is like 70% of the movie.
12:10 Beethoven wasn't actually deaf or rather when he was writing most of his music he wasn't. When he composed the vast majority of his music he had at least partial hearing. He didn't go fully deaf until 44 or 45. Symphony number 9 was written when he was fully deaf however.
Man... the animators went overkill on this one. It's like if you took an army of animators, gave then a bunch of cocaine and nothing to do but to animate. The animation is super fluid and dynamic, not a single frame repeats, there's like a dozens things in motion every single moment, just a bunch of well drown and highly details characters were used, high quality backgrounds are replaced in a matter of seconds with new ones... from a technical stand point, I think this is the most impressive work of animation I've ever seen. Ever.
Well a, I couldn't hear shit either. B, I know when someone kidnaps my daughter, the first thing I do is murder the only person who can save her. So either way it's illogical
No wonder these animations are so captivating and familiar. It's the same animators of Anastasia, Feivel, Charlie and Thumbelina! Like I first had to think of Thumbelina. Gosh darn. Amazing.
If you've ever seen All Dogs Go To Heaven, you'll know he just draws evil animals like that. Carface looks just like those cats, and probably just like a lot of other characters, because Don Bluth's style is very consistent.
Disaster Jones Strangely though in An American Tail, Warren T. looks sorta like a rat, even without his rat disguise. The one who actually looked the most like a cat in that movie was Tiger.
Dogs learn their name like humans do. Cats learn their names because you give them food when you call them. Cats release a "virus" that infects the host to make them less afraid, this is normally useful for catching mice but also so humans will keep feeding them. Dogs see humans as cute and cats see humans as stupid kittens that give them food. cATs ARE EVIL
@@matthewmiller7207 Well that is because cats represent bigots, racists and other corrupt organizations in the film and are drawn evil looking. Tiger represents someone who was told to hate others because he was born into it, but does so only to fit in.
The lady at the beginning is Daphne's mom. Also, in the lore of the game she was only ever refered to as "THE MOTHER IN-LAW". Yes, in all caps. Though apparently Don Bluth originally planned to name her Hilda.
I'd just like to remind everyone, that even though Dan wasn't able to complete the game itself, he did the entire piano section without messing up once. I don't care that they didn't beat the game themselves, Danny's skills are still impressive.
It's really cool, but everything happens so fast you can't really appreciate it. Kinda wished they slowed down a bit and only went full hectic during big moments. Also I'd smash that Eve like a meteor would earth.
One more good one to go* If you just want from the same franchise there is also space ace 2, dragons lair 3d, and I almost forgot dragons lair the legend
Damn, Dan is actually super good at this considering how fast it is and he has to keep up a conversation. I'd have to play this in complete silence and I'd still die a million times.
This video genuinely makes me want them to start a channel called "Movie Grumps" where they give commentary over great (usually animated) movies. Imagine MST3K but good movies and with Arin and Dan commentating.
"My Daphne, kidnapped? You'd better get my daughter!"
D&A: "Who is this woman? What does she want? Is she our wife?"
She's actually Daphne's mother, and Dirk's mother in law, (Since Daphne and Dirk are married in this game when they had all those adorable kids, that takes place 10 years after the events of the first "Dragon's Lair" game) who's mad at Dirk (and for whatever reason it seems like she blames him for her kidnapping) and wants to straight up kill him since Daphne got kidnapped and basically says to find her or Dirk will be dead meat during the cutscenes showing her trying to attack Dirk.

Tim Burton kinda sucks ngl, his best movie wasn't even done by him lmao
This game is gorgeous but so incredibly difficult to follow at the same time. Anyway, what you played was really impressive, Dan, great job!
7:56 boy slim thicc, skinny legend got me quaking
"Alice in Wonderland isn't time travel, it's made up!"
Yeah and dragons and evil wizards were totally a thing in the middle ages tooxD
*Daphne's mother clearly making the distinction that she's daphne's mother*
Arin & Dan: Who the hell is this?!?!
Do Space Ace next!!!!
the snes version, and have Arin play it
@@petertaylor9432 but Danny seems to be better at this type of game
@@needhd7159 exactly
Hmm~ Hmm~
@@needhd7159 thats why we want arin to play it
Dan: *literally stressing out with everything that's happening on the screen*
The game: *Beethoven playing a piano in the sky while his cat is chasing a little man jumping on physics defying objects*
Arin: look at that water, that water looks amazing
I’m so glad they watched through all the scenes like that! I forget how impressive this animation is during the gameplay, and I really liked Arin and Dan’s commentary 🙌🏻
Is no one going to comment that Beethoven becomes Elton John for 1 frame.
I was too busy wondering when he was gonna come down. When was he going to land? Maybe he should have stayed on the farm, and should have listen to his old man.
Didn't you know? Beethoven and Elton John are the same guy.
The Rocketman *would* have a flying piano lol
Haven't started watching yet. I'm gonna bet they get mad when they realize they have to collect hidden items.
I feel like the instructions could have mentioned it lol. I saw a bunch of flashing items here and there but it really wasn't that obvious :0
Bingo!
To be fair, I would be as well.
I'm pretty sure one of the items in the Beethoven stage was in the cat's fire breath too, glowing the same as the fire, if I remember correctly. That's an extremely cruel trick to hide it in something that looks exactly the same, I definitely don't blame them for passing on the items and just watching it.
I think it's cos they picked the Directors Cut version of the game - I'm sure I played a version where I beat it without collecting all that stuff.
@@cupriferouscatalyst3708 And there was so much shit going on how could Dan catch them all? Dude could barely look up to even catch the wonderful animations.
I love how Beethoven turns into Elton John for a second.
I think the lore is that in his world these events actually happened, so he really is travelling through time.
@@Kimshu6 I mean, we wouldn't know if it happened, and in a world with evil wizards AND time machines the idea of Alice in Wonderland having happened isn't that weird, also the garden of eden i guess
14:50 Glad to see that even after the Great Spelling Fiasco of 2017, three letter words are still Arin's blind spot.
>Game summary mentions Daphne
*10/10 best game*
To clarify: Disney does not own Alice in Wonderland. The original Alice books (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There) were written in 1865 and 1871 respectively. The books are in the public domain, so anyone can use those characters, or make adaptations of Alice. Disney owns the rights to their VERSIONS of the Alice characters, but they don't own the rights to the books or characters themselves because they are in the public domain. This is just Don Bluths version of the characters.
"I'm never gonna stop making nude cartoons" - Don Bluth 1992
Did he actually say that or are you just making a bit
And we love him for it.
Everyone knows Beethoven had a st Bernard
"One more step and your finished, ooo! Best line
27:04
Yeah. The camp “security guard” Angel of Eden always made my friend and I chuckle as preteens.
2:51 "you better find my daughter" meanwhile arin -"what's the relationship with her, is it his mom or wife" it's his mother in law arin pay attention
Ancient Egypt but future Egypt?...
What technology??
The statues kinda looked like old sci-fi tech, I understood why he was confused.
does a certain Hanson need glasses??
31:10 for reference -
Assuming this is what you were talking about, Arin was saying basically "This just transported him in space, not time - the ancient Egyptians are already ancient, so there was no time travel involved".
he may also have been confused by glancing at the time machine
@@Reisen_Inaba I don't say this to shit on arin's observations but just cuz I feel like it: There were still periods of what we call ancient egyptian history in which the ancient egyptians were living around what was still, even to them, 'ancient egyptian' architecture... I mean, it obviously wasn't quite like this, but still just an interesting thought.
I keep rewatching the part where Daphine is running up to Dirk like "yay!"
Beautiful animation. Just amazing.
Pixar is great and all, it really is - but I still love this old-style animation.
Yeah, definitely interesting that almost all 2d animation has gone out the window but 2d games still regularly exist even for just the look. You think there would be even more of that in movies considering what you see is like 70% of the movie.
"It's not like there's Egyptians walking around."
Nope. None at all.
Suzie played this on KKG about a year ago also if you want to see some treasures get snagged. Theyre pretty damn hard to find on your own
12:10 Beethoven wasn't actually deaf or rather when he was writing most of his music he wasn't. When he composed the vast majority of his music he had at least partial hearing. He didn't go fully deaf until 44 or 45. Symphony number 9 was written when he was fully deaf however.
Wow, Daphne looks incredible for having had 50 children.
I'd say 20
6:47 anyone else notice the hand sticking out of the chair? I love Don Bluth
Don Bluth. Dan's gateway drug to becoming a furry.
Don Bluth: furry vore fetishist
Look me in the eye and tell me I'm wrong.
Did don bluth do a robin hood where robin was a fox? Regardless, that fox is why im gay
@@maggs131 I'm not gay, but I get it, and I approve your taste. Meanwhile, for me on the straight side, there's Lola Bunny and Gadget.
Disaster Jones - I rewatched every single feature film Don Bluth ever directed a while back. You are a thousand percent not wrong.
@@maggs131 That was a Disney movie. Idk whether Don Bluth worked on it, though.
"What ever, she's just a drawing"
Says Dan the FURRY.
Dang dan you got some mad skills at these games
Man... the animators went overkill on this one. It's like if you took an army of animators, gave then a bunch of cocaine and nothing to do but to animate. The animation is super fluid and dynamic, not a single frame repeats, there's like a dozens things in motion every single moment, just a bunch of well drown and highly details characters were used, high quality backgrounds are replaced in a matter of seconds with new ones... from a technical stand point, I think this is the most impressive work of animation I've ever seen. Ever.
Daphne's mom: "My Daphne kidnapped again!?!?"
Arin: "Is that like his mom?"
Listening skills on point as usual.
In his defense, the audio was hard to hear
Lol I thought it was Dirk’s mom because she considered Daphne her daughter-in-law
dude NO ONE could hear that
@@Morchunkis I heard that 😉
Well a, I couldn't hear shit either. B, I know when someone kidnaps my daughter, the first thing I do is murder the only person who can save her. So either way it's illogical
No wonder these animations are so captivating and familiar. It's the same animators of Anastasia, Feivel, Charlie and Thumbelina! Like I first had to think of Thumbelina. Gosh darn. Amazing.
Thumbelina is literally a redheaded Daphne and still just as cute
The beep is infuriating, like having a conversation at a crosswalk for half an hour lol.
I kept catching myself just staring at the arrows the whole time.
I've said it before and I'll say it again:
What did a cat ever do to Don Bluth that convinced him they were full demons?
If you've ever seen All Dogs Go To Heaven, you'll know he just draws evil animals like that. Carface looks just like those cats, and probably just like a lot of other characters, because Don Bluth's style is very consistent.
Disaster Jones Strangely though in An American Tail, Warren T. looks sorta like a rat, even without his rat disguise. The one who actually looked the most like a cat in that movie was Tiger.
Dogs learn their name like humans do.
Cats learn their names because you give them food when you call them.
Cats release a "virus" that infects the host to make them less afraid, this is normally useful for catching mice but also so humans will keep feeding them.
Dogs see humans as cute and cats see humans as stupid kittens that give them food.
cATs ARE EVIL
@@TheLegless101 My cats see me as their parent and come when I call because they want attention. They are simply hairy two-year-old humans.
@@matthewmiller7207 Well that is because cats represent bigots, racists and other corrupt organizations in the film and are drawn evil looking. Tiger represents someone who was told to hate others because he was born into it, but does so only to fit in.
The lady at the beginning is Daphne's mom. Also, in the lore of the game she was only ever refered to as "THE MOTHER IN-LAW". Yes, in all caps. Though apparently Don Bluth originally planned to name her Hilda.
Daphne still has her perfect body even after giving birth to all those kids
I feel like she's a goddess or something. =/ always perfect body and perfect down below for Dirk to make another baby.
Looks like she had a couple sextuplets or more right after the other. I'm assuming she used magic for pain/sanity.
So glad Dan's playing this! I wish he play more games 😭
It has to be said. This is a reaction image GOLDMINE!
9:55
"One more step and your finished!"
10:00. Dead.
Well... He did warn you.
12:16 Suddenly! Elton John!
I'd just like to remind everyone, that even though Dan wasn't able to complete the game itself, he did the entire piano section without messing up once. I don't care that they didn't beat the game themselves, Danny's skills are still impressive.
Don Bluth and his obsession with furry vore infiltrated all our childhoods
I'm very glad I'm not the only person who noticed.
Most certainly
ikr lol
At least three of his movies had it (An American Tail, All Dogs Go to Heaven, and The Pebble and the Penguin).
Didn't he animate the "Page Master" er whatever it was called ... That had one too..
"YOU'D BETTER FIND MY DAUGHTER DAPHNE OR ELSE"
"BUT WHAT'S THEIR RELATIONSHIP?????"
It's really cool, but everything happens so fast you can't really appreciate it. Kinda wished they slowed down a bit and only went full hectic during big moments.
Also I'd smash that Eve like a meteor would earth.
By all means, Dan, you've played through it, you deserve more than anyone to take your time to watch the full story.
This game feels like such a fuster cluck.
Well, that means there's just one more to go. Space Ace!
One more good one to go*
If you just want from the same franchise there is also space ace 2, dragons lair 3d, and I almost forgot dragons lair the legend
18:42 And Thus Daphne is cursed with-
* GASP * A BAD MAKEOVER!!!
Edit:I’d thought l’d get 5-10 likes but 97?! Thank you so much!
128
158
Well whatever number it is I’m happy!
@@PinaaaColaaa 240
@@PinaaaColaaa more happy.... more.... MORE.... MORE HAAAAAAAAAPYYYT!!!!!
Damn, Dan is actually super good at this considering how fast it is and he has to keep up a conversation. I'd have to play this in complete silence and I'd still die a million times.
YAY!!
I just hope Suzy warned them about the treasures...
3:02 ...and she didn't. XP
This video genuinely makes me want them to start a channel called "Movie Grumps" where they give commentary over great (usually animated) movies. Imagine MST3K but good movies and with Arin and Dan commentating.
Thank you, Arin,
Very cool
Nice profile pic.
this game is so beautiful holy shit. glad we could have an art appreciation episode
