Correct me if I'm wrong but there was never a cathedral in 1000 AD, right? They are mixing up time periods, right?

Off to a brilliant start here. In classic Endurance Run form they forget that whole time they broke out of prison after nearly being executed in this time period. xD

Well, Vinny and Jeff forgot a thing or two, sure, but they were not this bad.

Oh man, I really hope this isn't an hour of them trying to figure out how to get into the castle.

I wouldn't stress out over it. I was able to get it pretty easily during E3 or some other show where they are putting out updates every 10 minutes or so, but for a video that is expected to release every day around the same time, you're just fighting with everyone for scraps.

@Dogma: Yeah the cathedral is only in 600 AD.

In the present that spot's always just a patch of forest.

So, whey they found Cyrus Patrick's thought was "Maybe if we put Brog in he can talk to Cyrus" but the thought never occurs to him to use Barle, the princess of the castle, to get into the castle. *Person mentions the king's daughter* Both Patrick and Ryan take no notice of her.

17 minutes in, still too in love with Brog and Bobo to remove them from the party.

If only there was someone they could put in their party to order the guards to allow them entry to the castle.

21 minutes in, finally Patrick mentions switching party members. REJOICE!

Oh shit, I think I see Jar Jar in the audience, ready to give the Chancellor full power over the Senate and make him Emperor. Get back there quick, Ryan.

NO! Go back and get the thing Palpatine dropped when you killed him. There was a shiny!

Reload what, Patrick? Have you guys saved? I don't remember a save, so if you want the dress you have to do the whole thing over, including the 20 minutes of fumbling around talking to townspeople before realizing you need Barle in your party.

Yay, the SHINY! And you found the real Chancellor Palpatine.

FUCK YOU, Patrick, for your Black Eyed Peas reference.

No guys, you are done with this side quest. Time to move on to another side quest. Stop trying to over think this. The Chancellor is not going to talk to you and you're not going to be able to sleep your way to the finale. Well, maybe Barle could but Brono can't.

OK, can someone help me. Why do they think the need to trigger something? I'm confused, what do they think they need to do and why do they need to do it? Just because Melchior said weapons? I don't think he's making weapons. Ten minutes later, Patrick maybe gets it. No Ryan, don't focus on the Prism Shard. Ha, the old man just told you that you are done with the Rainbow Shell side quest.

Awww, so close to a Wondershot, which is actually a very good weapon. Meh, Bucca just lost any non-tech combat viability ; ;

@Ronald: Actually, there is more to this sidequest. They can still get the Rainbow, Brono's ultimate weapon in the SNES version of the game (70% crit. rate) and the Prism Spectacles, which drastically increase your damage output. But they need to complete the Sun Stone quest first.

They can't continue currently, but you can't fault them for actually paying attention to what the game's telling them: that there's still stuff Melchior can make if he has an alloy.

Yep, they need the sun stone to make the other items.

Several NPCs have mentioned a parade, and the Chancellor quite specifically mentioned it as the Moonlight Parade. Obviously, they're trying to figure out how to trigger that event.

And before you say anything, I'l well aware of where it is, but THEY don't. Chill out and let them play the game.

@Rongaryen: That is every one's reaction at least it's mine. They're just really bad at this game. Some times it feels like a doctor should come in to check out their brains to make sure their rapid memory loss isn't a symptom of a horrible tumour.

That being said their suckiness combined with the comments makes this really entertaining. By the way is that from a recent bombcast?
