The whole demo is at the very most 30 minutes long and if you're someone capable at video games, you can beat it in half that. Did they seriously have to stretch a demo out over two videos? I'm surprised they didn't do three parts and make each one 10 minutes on the nose. This is some seriously stingy shit.

Yeah, I'm not surprised, but it did stick out to me when I saw that "Part 1" in the video title. Just underlines how fanatically they stick to that time limit and getting as much mileage as possible out of every little thing. A 30 minute or less demo, and they had to split it into two parts. Kind of impressive in a bad way.
And then, after the demo is done, we'll never see the game, again.
Oh ffs. Its 30 minutes and thy had to break it into 2 parts? I'll skip this. I watched Jacksepticeye, Markiplier and Pewdiepie play this. All 3 could comment and play the game correctly. They gave you a good idea of the game and critique it at the end. We all know Arin wont play this when it comes out because god forbid they play a triple A game.

Yes. 15 minutes or so is the regular length of a video for them.
That's still weird, man. Couldn't they at least make a special exception for a half-hour playthrough?
Yeah I can't think of any reason why they would split this up, besides how they would get more money if they did.
Are you really surprised that they did it for more money? Arin is pretty damn money-focused when it comes to the show.
I also haven't watched it yet but willing to bet it's going to be 30 minutes of Dana and Ariana obnoxiously screaming while Dana occasionally says "I don't like this" like a twat.
Edit: Less than a minute in and they're screwing around with menus and Arin doesn't know what HDR is.
Edit 2: Dan didn't know this was a demo and thought this was the original version from the 90s. 1:30 in. I'm going to stop updating now but holy shit is this not boding well.
Edit 3: One last edit. Sorry. Not five minutes in and Arin has referenced "I'm (noun) boy, I'm the one that (verbs)" and also his dick a few times.
Edit 4: I won't add anything else to this comment that would ruin watching the video for you guys but I've only managed to watch another minute since my last edit and it's making me want to just do a play-by-play. I'm finding this video extremely annoying.
Final Edit: Someone asked me to keep going so I'm just gonna give my play-by-play as it goes and I find annoying things.
After referencing his dick, Arin spends an entire minute trying to figure out a riddle with absolutely no clues. A minute when there's a 30 minute time limit and when he's trying to entertain an audience.
I forgot to mention an earlier part when after a cutscene, Dan was making a comment about how nice the game looks only for Arin to interrupt and say "Let's get the heck out of here, dude, I don't fucking care about any of this shit" like a dismissive prick. Dan says "OK, great."
Arin starts going on for WAY too long about Leon's ass.
It took them eight minutes to get out of the main foyer.
Arin inexplicably keeps walking into walls.
Poop joke! Hilarious!
They talk about poop for a really long time.
It took Arin three tries to move a cabinet because he didn't read the prompt that said "Hold A".
Talks about Leon's butt again.
They both make a bunch of really lame jokes which neither of them laugh at while also talking over each other which is the total opposite of what you do if your job is commentary.
The first encounter with a zombie proves my prediction right. Obnoxious SCREECHING while Arin screams indecipherable nonsense.
Dan references sex act as usual. We get it, Dan.
Poop jokes!!!!!
This is nitpicky, but it's super annoying when they can't think of anything to say so they just repeat the shit the characters say in the game.
Repeatedly just make high-pitched obnoxious noises while mimicking Yoshi.
Arin forgets he's already checked a fuse panel that he has no fuses for while a bunch of zombies are roaming around the area.
More obnoxious yelling while Arin does annoying voice pretending to be a zombie.
They keep making weird homoerotic jokes through this entire episode.
Dan actually says something funny in the last 30 seconds of this playthrough.
I have a bunch of minor complaints but the biggest one I gotta point out is they just never shut the fuck up for even five seconds. I get it's the point of being LPers, but at the same time, you gotta let some jokes breathe or take some time to actually craft a joke rather than just saying "poopy butt farts!" Just making obnoxious noises isn't humor. You can't even argue this is humor aimed for kids because kids shouldn't be hearing jokes about fucking dudes in the ass. It doesn't make sense. There's tons of humor you can get from just the whole scenario of a rookie cop on his first day having the place being overrun by zombies. Two "improv comedians" should be able to riff about that for at least a few minutes. Instead it's just "POOP!" It's so goddamn bad.
“Ruin the video for you guys”
Yeah, I can assure you that wouldn’t be your fault at all.
Fair.
Do more, I'm enjoying your reactions! Like those old Zelda video rants that one redditor used to do here.
OK. I'm just going to watch the whole thing and just add points as they go along. I'll edit my original to include all my complaints at once instead of 50 edits. I don't even know if the rest of the video will be bad but I'll try to be thorough without being too nitpicky.
You're the hero we need.
Haha. Thanks. It's not that long but it's done. It's just a bunch of minor complaints but I hope you enjoy it at least.
