Penny Arcade - PATV - You’re Gonna Love It – Volgarr The Viking
As a Vulgarr survivor, watching you guys get murdered and pissed off by all of the things that murdered me and pissed me off was really satisfying.
I personally think that Vulgarr is an extremely good game with the ONE little caveat that I think 90% of the difficulty stems from the fact that the horizontal jump physics are deliberately awful. (See the part where Kiko attempts to perform an extremely simple horizontal jump at 11:20, but fumbles it because the horizontal jumping is difficult to work with.)
To be fair, the game's armor system and not-so-great horizontal jump physics are essentially an homage to Ghouls n' Ghosts, but let's be honest that the awkward jumping is enemy #1 in this game---as evidenced many times in this episode. ;-)
For the record, Josh is an asshole, because we played for over two hours and he edited out the entire second level, where I CRUSHED KIKO WITH MY MAD VULGARR SKILLS. This edit is bullshit kiko propaganda at its finest.
