Quick Look: Giant Machines 2017

Big... Rigs...?

Thank god it's a Vinny joint.

I've been eagerly awaiting this Quick Look - Ska Ghost is a Level 4 entity with the unholy power of horns, eyebrow piercings and checkerboard Vans.

"There's not SAND in computers!"

Never stop Dan.

Wait, so now they actually talk about weekend QLs in the deck?

"one is for boobs the other is for computers", that wise old saying

Oh another collection of Dan nuggets. Just a few seconds in and we already have him asking if elements grow in the soil. I bet this will be amazing.

Vinny ripping the E-Brake on a THUGZ while listening to industrial metal is exactly how I wanted to spend my Sunday

This game is genuinely kinda amazing.

Silica AKA silicon dioxide.

Did Vinny just UN-INVERT his controls?

He's using a mouse.

Took one Beast quick look for Dan to revert into "I don't know anything about anything, even though people have told me before" standard so we just get a quick look of questions rather than focusing on having fun with the game.

That bequest one must have been an anomaly.

I love everything about this.

This shall be entered into the ledgers next to fine entries like that one Zombie-Forklift game

Are they playing on ultra low graphics ?

garbage games don't deserve a serious quick look

I don't think having fun with this thing is even a possibility

Just got to the part where they're discussing "Punanny", which is um...

Wow this whole quick look is an entire exploration of Dan.

thanks for making me vomit...if you throw your first person camera around so frantically like this it is very nauseating :(

ive been in a hospital bed for the past week after they removed 15 inches of my small intestine but even at home the super high sensitivity viewing in a video can be rough for some people

I'm with Vinny, playing bands from the 90's on classic rock stations is wrong. It's not classic because it came out X number of years ago, it's classic because of the point in music history it emerged! A couple months ago a classic rock station here played Sublime and I'm still mad!

I feel like Vinny probably answers similar questions at work and home now.

There should be a quiz between Dan and Max.

I dunno that seems silly. At some point you just need a catch all for Old Shit.

Just think of 'crafting' Dan

Having an interest over the soundtrack of this game

I bet there is a lot of crossover in Vinny's skillsets of dealing with his children and dealing with Dan

Dan makes me feel sad sometimes.

Gimme a thousand years of Dan asking questions over another videos worth of people patting themselves on the back cause they feel smarter.

I look at all these machines and all I see is Transformers. It's awesome.

Vinny's understanding of material science is going to kill him one day.

I think a lot of Dan's problems could be solved with "Why don't you look it up?"

Ditto. Dan is great and maybe he doesn't have knowledge in some seemingly common areas, but he owns up to it and he's very smart in others.

ska ghost!

Please stop, Dan

"Is it fair to say that the fucking Internet, and your iPhone, is made out of rocks and dirt and dust?"

"It's not sand in computers. It's like microchips and stuff."

Dan Ryckert 2017

The ska thing has worn thin. They are beating that joke to death. Also the tire conversation was terrible.

I'd watch a premium video series of Vinny just teaching Dan random things like how to change a tire.

You know what all those giant machines can do to all the dirt and snow?

It can be used to pickitup pickitup pickitup pickitup pickitup.

For the record, some of the tracks seem to be Creative Commons and freely available on ccMixter. That said, the ska track (The Stylacja - Typ) doesn't seem to be, nor does the Dr. Gore 2000 track. Both seem to be Polish and I've only found them on YouTube.

Pretty sure Dan is just trolling now.

To be fair, Vinny reminds him of that bit in this QL.

@knightdehumidifier: oh boy I was not ready for that one

Listening to Dan not understand something as simple as changing a tire makes you wonder how hes even survived this long....

Every rock station is basically a "classic" rock station because classic rock is waaaaay cheaper to afford, getting the modern big hits is too expensive to get a hold of radio stations.

Dang, I was hoping Drew would be virtually beamed into this quick look. Since they have the cross coast tech worked out I assume the schedule didn't work out, too bad since this looks is a Drew ass Drew game!

Dan you are made of poop and wasps

Simple sure..? But I never once have ever had to change a tire. So I dont know how to either. Strange how you learn things through doing, and when you dont do it you dont learn it.

How dare Dan never have to do things.

Polish ska on GiantBomb.com. Never thought I'd live to see the day!

Also, here's the song!

My god dan's lack of knowledge is wonderful with vinny's attempts to steer him straight. Edutainment at its finest.

#edit- "George Brett's Habanera, excellent smalljoke, Dan.
