Not sure how these guys are so confused during each mini game. The games are pretty well explained before the start,

This was great, even though the game is total bullshit (Mario Party is a gaming masterpiece comperatively).

Hopefully they'll do one for Fuzion Frenzy 2 to. (And maybe restart the Mario Party Parties in the East as Dan suggested previously.)

I agree, but I also played dozens of hours of this when it released. Honestly the visual language is awful and the sentences (which are often in broken English and use a lot of weird game-specific terms) are too short. Mario Party was fine because it had a gif of its awful-ass minigames but this relies completely on a sentence and pure hope to convey what to do. Keep in mind that they don't know what the levels looks like, what the tools may be, if there are any vehicles involved, etc.

Holy shit, I lost it. This was fantastic.

(can't wait for someone to take this way too seriously a la Metal Gear Scanlon and start thinking that Dan and Vinny hate each other)

It's amazing that a game got released with literally zero playtesting. Wow.

There was annoying Alex with the Zak voice, being ultra competitive at the end, and even THROWING SHIT at Vinny!

Dan really went full Dan in this one, huh?

The awkwardness caused by Dan was palpable and I don’t understand how he has any friends if that’s how he competes with them

Dan drags down every video like this that he's in. Dude needs to take it down about a thousand notches. Like I don't care if it's just a ''''bit'''' or whatever (which I don't believe this was at all), it's super obnoxious and not at all fun to watch. If the others were into it and playing off of him that would be one thing, but it's pretty obvious none of them were feeling it. (And no I don't think they hate him or whatever, but they clearly weren't on board with his bullshit.) Hopefully someday he'll figure out that can be goofy and over-the-top without being a complete knob about it.

Dan is the painful burn in spicy food that hurts when it's happening but is essential to the flavor.

I have to say the camera and the perspective in this game is terrible. I'd hate to see how this would look on an SD set.

Holy cow. After Dan’s tantrum, I’m starting to understand why Jeff got more jaded as Mario Party Party winded down. For someone who claims he’s not competitive, he sure is a sore loser. I’m convinced that if Dan won any of the games after the tie, he would have twisted it so that he ‘won’. Kudos to Vinny for remaining calm and collected and for Abby and Alex for taking Vinny’s side. But holy cow. I can only wonder what would have happened if Vinny didn’t relent to Dan’s bullying to get that one-on-one final match.
