And I’m almost wondering if that was a problem of where I was jumping, but I went to the place (I mean spot) in the video, and it was supposedly fine so I don’t know. I’ve got a few guesses. It’s one of those things where you’d have to have the person to compare to. {roommate} I do have the video. Do you have a video of them doing the button presses? {roommate} …Nooo, that’s true.
That’s what I think… {roommate} You know what, I’m just going to run this direction.
Would you stop that? Come on, bats. {roommate} Stupid flying rodents.
Or you could do that. That works too. See, the thing is, if that jump is supposed to work a different way, they haven’t really told you that. Yeah. Well, what I’m reasoning, right? {roommate} Yeah? Is that you have to have the reverse button held at a specific time. {roommate}
But that’s not true for all the times, though. Yeah. Well, I think it’s that very specific set of button presses that has been causing you trouble. I could be wrong about that, but. {roommate}
Well, the walljump has been the most inconsistent with results. I’m like, it’s really weird, because, as you can see from previous things, it’s not like—okay, you were moonwalking there. Okay. So how about this? You moonwalk over that little section and save us all some time and trouble. How about that? {roommate}
I mean, if he went on his diet like he actually planned he could’ve fit through the crack in the bottom and saved us all a lot of time, but no. (Note: this is not an endorsement of dieting. Unless it’s something like limiting the amount of, say, lactose or gluten in your diet because you’re intolerant, or eating specific foods for bodybuilding or something, I feel like an exercise plan does far better in most of these kinds of situations, partially because diets are presented as the Fat Cure Pill a la Doctor Who’s Adipose stuff and that’s not how any of this works.)
Okay, so you go back with your Sands of Time—oh, wait, you don’t have that anymore. {roommate}
‘Cause, see, I didn’t hold down any other directions during that entire section and I was fine. And I haven’t on the other sections either. And if it’s required for some walljumps and not others…why? An excellent question. {roommate} Also, according to online manuals and stuff you’re not supposed to have to do that, but. I hate this section so much. And I don’t—you can’t jump down in the center of that, unfortunately, I don’t think.
I’m going to try something else. I’ve got two variations I think I’m going to attempt. {roommate}
Okay, that’s...you have to hit back and jump. *scream* And see, he hit the wall with his hands, and… Let me begin again. [Prince]
I might try some of this, just ‘cause… {roommate} To get used to the controls? Yeah. Gotta get used to the controls again. Let’s see. {roommate}
The difference should be running towards the wall, but. Okay. {roommate}
And that is water over there. I see. {roommate} R2. The bottom…the wallrun button.
I swear, Mr. Prince. You are the most worthless of all God’s creations, utterly useless for anything… {roommate} (I appreciate the Shakespearean insult.) And see, he clearly knows what he’s doing, because some sections he can do.
Useless for anything without your stupid dagger. {roommate} Yeah. You mewling puke. Learn to run like a real man. {roommate} I also wonder if I should be using my block more now that I don’t have the dagger, because I’m like, Oh yeah, I have a block. *laughs*
Okay, go ahead and try to get him through this stuff. {roommate} *Prince screams* What. (Flat what.) The most worthless of all of God’s creations. {roommate} What even are you? You mewling puke, incapable of jumping. Let me show you how a real man handles pain! {roommate}
It is slightly different doing it from farther off. Yeah. I could move, but. {roommate} Nah. I think you’re good where you are. See, this— {roommate}
No. Here we go. ‘Cause otherwise you’ll just do that on your own and I don’t want to deal with that. *Prince screams* *I sigh* That’s not how it happened. [Prince] Yes it is. {roommate}
The other thing is either this is all happening and he’s just dying over and over again and being brought back by the Sands…or he’s a terrible storyteller. You are a dumb, ignorant mother. C’mon, man. Even I know better than that. {roommate} I don’t know which it is, honestly.
You like that? You like being shown up by me? C’mon. Let’s see you get through this. {roommate}
I used to be able to make it through these guys with no problem. But then he decided that hitting his sword against the rock and falling off the cliff was much a more entertaining option. Entertaining for you, perhaps. Your girlfriend still stole your stupid dagger. {roommate} Yeah. Are you going to let her do that? Are you going to just let her take your dagger? {roommate}
I never trusted her, to be fair. Yeah, I think you would have to be an idiot to trust a character in a videogame like that. But. …Look at this guy. {roommate} We took her people hostage and… I mean, look at this guy. Would you trust him? Would you trust him with anything? {roommate} Ummmmmm. He’s an interesting character. It’s not the same thing.
Yeah, I know you hear me in there. What I’m telling you is…you can prove me wrong by, you know, not being an idiot. {roommate}
I was like “I might make it through this game today!!!”….no, I’m not. Probably. Yeah. {roommate}
I think I figured out why he kept hitting his sword against the cliff, though? Directions? {roommate} No, I think he has to be holding onto the cliff like this to be able to take the sword out and smack it in your general direction.
I see. You know, you can prove me wrong, Mr. Prince. You can get through this. But we both know you’re not going to. {roommate} Not without some “encouragement”, shall we say.
