Felicia Day Becomes a Gunstar Hero

[MUSIC]
FELICIA DAY: Hey everybody.
Felicia Day here.
Welcome to The Flog.
In this week's segment, I go rage face over a video game
and act like a crazy, insane anti-lady so be
prepared for [BLEEP].
Meanwhile, we got a lot of feedback about Fave Five
turning into Top Three.
I just want to let you know, we hear you.
So in the interest of placating you, Top Three will
now be known as Trio Mio!
Huh?
Ay!
Ooh, virtual pizza.
It's still only three things.
Three things forever.
So hey!
Number one is a YouTube animated
series called Tiny Fuppets.
I think it's a Muppet Babies parody in Portuguese, but the
weird part is that the Portuguese is like grade
school bad, so I don't know who this series
is making fun of.
All I know it that it's weird and awesomely twisted, so I'm
a fan, even if they're making of me, the viewer.
[SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE].
Number two, it's been a while since I've had time to play an
MMO, and one just came out recently called Secret World.
When I heard that Ragnar Tornquist was involved, I knew
I had to try it out because The Longest Journey is one of
my favorite games of all time.
The game is set in an alt now world and it doesn't have any
levels, it's all skill-based.
Some of the instances are puzzles only, too, so you
don't even have to hack and slash to finish the quest.
For the record, there are some bugs and the interface is a
little bit clunky.
And sometimes you have to watch a 20-minute YouTube
video to figure out how to craft somethin.
But for some reason, that's almost the appeal.
It's not like easy mode gaming.
And as a bonus, the avatar creation is super fun.
Here's mine.
She's like the ultimate hipster, huh?
She's a barista.
She looks like a barista, right?
Hey, you need a latte?
Hot pants!
And lastly, I love co-op games.
As you can tell from the segment this week, I play
really well with others.
Co-optimus is a great blog that has news, game lists,
forums, and even podcasts, all on the joys of co-op gaming.
Speaking of co-op, my brother Ryon is back this week to play
a Sega Genesis game with me.
And my anger and profanity are not faked.
I'm sorry to say.

FELICIA DAY: Hey, welcome back.
I'm playing--
RYON DAY: Hi.
FELICIA DAY: Hey.
I'm playing games with my brother again.
We are playing something that you guys suggested a lot from
the last video, Gunstar Heroes.

Well, we're going to put this in, and we're
going to start playing.
RYON DAY: Pop it in.
FELICIA DAY: Don't ever say that again.
RYON DAY: Can we skip?
FELICIA DAY: I don't understand.
No!
Don't skip the back-story.
We've learned over and over again.
Where is he?
RYON DAY: I skipped it.
FELICIA DAY: Gunstar Heroes happening now.
Weapon?
I don't know.
Fire?
RYON DAY: Fire.
FELICIA DAY: Fire's always good.
RYON DAY: Fire's good.
Looks like A doesn't do anything.
FELICIA DAY: A does nothing.
RYON DAY: B shoots, and C jumps.
FELICIA DAY: Well you know what's good about this?
RYON DAY: OK.
Cool.
I'm done.
FELICIA DAY: No friendly fire.
Whoa!
I just threw you!
RYON DAY: You just threw me.
Oh, it's on.
OK.
FELICIA DAY: OK.
RYON DAY: That's how we're going to
move through the screen.
I can't pick these up.
FELICIA DAY: No.
RYON DAY: Is this a street apple?
FELICIA DAY: No.
No.
RYON DAY: Are you sure?
You can point up!
This is changing my entire Gunstar Heroes experience.
FELICIA DAY: Wait.
How do you do that?
RYON DAY: Well, you have a D pad, push up.
And then hit fire.
FELICIA DAY: That's not working for me.
Oh yeah it is.
RYON DAY: Yeah it is.
FELICIA DAY: You're the worst.
What is this?
It's pancakes.
RYON DAY: Boss is approaching.
What the [BLEEP]?
FELICIA DAY: Asparagus is going crazy.
RYON DAY: It's asparagus stalk.
FELICIA DAY: Oh shit!
RYON DAY: I am going to make your piss smell really bad!
FELICIA DAY: That was easy.
RYON DAY: We vanquished asparagus.
FELICIA DAY: Well I did it.
Did you see that?
I pretty much did it solo.
RYON DAY: It doesn't look like you can actually pick up any
power-ups in this game.
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
FELICIA DAY: No, what?
What do you do?
RYON DAY: We got to duck and then hit fire.
OK.
Good.
This changes everything.
FELICIA DAY: No, that's my firepower I just dropped it.
RYON DAY: I died again.
You want to continue?
FELICIA DAY: No.
That's the segment.

Yes, we have to continue.
RYON DAY: What is this little guy?
Look at that.
FELICIA DAY: [BABY TALK].
Oh look!
Look!
I'm hanging!
I'm hanging!
A lot of upper body strength and tiny feet.
Your feet are supposed to be the length of your forearm.
RYON DAY: My feet are much longer than my forearm.
FELICIA DAY: No, that's not true.
RYON DAY: I'll do it.
FELICIA DAY: Do it.
RYON DAY: There!
FELICIA DAY: Jesus, that's disgusting.
You are a mutant.
RYON DAY: You can shoot diagonally.
FELICIA DAY: What?
I discovered that maybe two or three minutes ago.
Hey, I saved you.
Where's the thanks?
Get all my pancakes.
We got less.
We need to move faster.
RYON DAY: The meaning of continue seems to be really
different from what I would define as continue because
we're not actually continuing.
FELICIA DAY: Ah!
Look at that!
Look at that!
RYON DAY: They don't know what to do.
FELICIA DAY: They don't know.
They're like perplexed.
Oh, this is new!
RYON DAY: Look at this!
I'm cheating.
This is totally cheesing it.
FELICIA DAY: I don't know if that's cheesing.
RYON DAY: I take the easy path through life, as you know.
FELICIA DAY: Thanks for the philosophy.
You!
You [BLEEP]!
You throw me off the thing.
This is a co-op game!
Oh, what is this?
RYON DAY: That is early 3D.
FELICIA DAY: Whoa!
It would blow your mind when you're 12.
RYON DAY: I know when I was 12, like, this is the best
graphics ever.
FELICIA DAY: Oh, something happened.
RYON DAY: We killed him.
FELICIA DAY: Oh, this is so much fun!
RYON DAY: Slide kick.
FELICIA DAY: This is so much fun!
RYON DAY:We're off the screen.
FELICIA DAY: Wait!
What happened?
RYON DAY: How did that kill us?
FELICIA DAY: You [BLEEP]
piece of [BLEEP]!
[SOOTHING MUSIC]
RYON DAY: Take her.
Take her!
FELICIA DAY: No!
You jerk!
Oh my god!
You threw me at him as bait!
RYON DAY: OK.
Good.
OK.
FELICIA DAY: We get a reward.
We [BLEEP]
out rewards.
RYON DAY: I'm gonna pinch ya!
FELICIA DAY: You sound like some really creepy aunt.
Come here.
Oh, [BLEEP]!
No!
RYON DAY: That one's going all crazy boss.
FELICIA DAY: Warning.
RYON DAY: OK.
FELICIA DAY: Oh no.
What the hell?
RYON DAY: That is what I imagine a
4chan troll looks like.
A fat kid wearing sunglasses and a giant computer.
[NERDY VOICE]
Excuse me, you guys are ruining video games--
FELICIA DAY: Oh my god.
You are single-handedly ruining video games.
RYON DAY: And you're single-handedly
ruining video gaming.
FELICIA DAY: Oh, masturbate!
Masturbate!
Masturbate!
RYON DAY: Oh, no, it can't be 4chan here,
there's a girl with them.
Did you see?
RYON DAY: Oh, I just threw you off again.
FELICIA DAY: No!
You [BLEEP]
[BLEEP]
[BLEEP].
[SOOTHING MUSIC]
FELICIA DAY: Keep away from me.
Get away from me.
Oh, I'm sorry.
RYON DAY: [BLEEP]
you!
That was the quickest we've ever died.
We're regressing.
The moose knuckle.
FELICIA DAY: OK.
RYON DAY: --is his special power?
FELICIA DAY: What's a moose knuckle?
What's a moose knuckle?
RYON DAY: A moose knuckle is when a man's penis and balls
make an outline against his too-tight pants.
FELICIA DAY: What?
Oh my god!
You've got to be kidding me!
You gotta get up there.
Look, 1200!
There's an actual meter.
Get away from the ball!
RYON DAY: A meter?
Oh look, there's the meter.
We just now found this.
FELICIA DAY: I just.
I did.
There's something wrong with my pad.
RYON DAY: Sure.
FELICIA DAY: No, it's serious.
RYON DAY: You're not just bad at the game.
FELICIA DAY: Oh, I'm sorry.
RYON DAY: You just threw me.
FELICIA DAY: Yeah.
Maybe shut the [BLEEP]
up!
RYON DAY: You're genuinely angry now.
It's no more games with you!
FELICIA DAY: Hey look, these are lives.
RYON DAY: Oh, they're lives?
FELICIA DAY: Yes.
RYON DAY: How did you figure that out?
FELICIA DAY: Because there's a [BLEEP]
heart in there.
That's universal video game language.
RYON DAY: OK.
FELICIA DAY: OK.
Get on him.
RYON DAY: We got to get on him?
FELICIA DAY: Get on him.
RYON DAY: Get up on that [BLEEP].
You're ruining my suit!
And video gaming.
No!
FELICIA DAY: No!
[BLEEP]!
I'm going to try to keep as much vitality as possible
which is a good--
RYON DAY: I think that's generally a good
strategy for any game.
This is pro-gaming tips by Felicia Day.
"Try not to let your life go down."
FELICIA DAY: You are the worst!
I did not lose any vitality.
You lost eight, you stupid, stupid man.
RYON DAY: That's pretty harsh for eight vitality.
Oh, we got him down 1,800.
Four, three, two, one.
Kill him!
Kill him!
Moose knuckle!
FELICIA DAY: Moose knuckle kill!
RYON DAY: Take that, 4chan!
FELICIA DAY: 4chan!
RYON DAY:Now who's ruining video gaming, [BLEEP]?
FELICIA DAY: You heard it, internet.
Thank you for accompanying us on this journey.
RYON DAY: Thank you very much.
FELICIA DAY: I would say this is a really fun game.
RYON DAY: I really liked it.
I really liked it.
FELICIA DAY: Except when I started getting
lightheaded with rage.
Bye!
RYON DAY: Bye!
FELICIA DAY: Our question of note this week comes from
John, who asks, if you were an Olympic athlete, what would be
your sport, and what medal place would you get?
Dear John, if I were to compete in the Olympics I
would definitely choose gymnastics because I can do
the splits.
It's really my one party trick.
Were I to perform, I would perform the
famous Retton flip.
I would probably finish last because that move is no longer
in the code of points.
But place first in the heart of America because honoring a
bad-ass like Mary Lou Retton is gold medal worthy.
Sincerely, Felicia Day.

OK.
Next week, we're going to try something new.
We are going to have a guest flogger.
See if you can guess in the comments who that person is
going to be from the Geek and Sundry sphere.
Also, tomorrow night, we kick off something
brand new on the channel.
It's called hangouts at 8:00.
Every Tuesday night, we're going to broadcast live about
something different.
Pat Rothfuss, the author of The Name of the Wind, will be
starting his storytelling one tomorrow night.
I hope you enjoy.
So I'll see-a you next week!
