ERADICATOR IS WEIRD CRUNCHY DOS JANK
🕑 Added 2024-02-26 14:55:53 +0000 UTCSomehow, Civvie made a video that was almost under 30 minutes while discussing a strange and confounding relic of the DOS era. Been sitting on this game for a while since people told me about it a long, long time ago, after which I immediately bought it on Steam, played it for an hour, got frustrated, and put it on the backburner until I felt like touching it again.
This episode is also very heavy on the idea that Civvie is slipping more and more into complete paranoid delusion which I promise is a bit and not reflective of my own mental health. I am, surprisingly, doing quite well, despite the abundance of Bubsy the Bobcat jokes in this video and the fact that I actually captured my own Bubsy 3D footage.
Also, that bit with Bubsy towards the beginning where he "brushes his teeth" is yet another gag I've wanted to do for years that wasn't possible until I got better at editing and paid Adobe more every month for After Effects. Indeed, what could pawsibly go wrong?
Voiceover may sound a bit different in this one since circumstances beyond my control forced me to move my office and put up different soundproofing. So it goes. I strive to sound like I'm coming from a sub-basement but also to not sound too shitty. This desperate balancing act between "terrible ideas that kind of work as jokes" and "having to occasionally appear to be a professional YouTuber" is the lifeblood of this show.
'til next time,
-Civvie

I don’t even know if you’re fucking with me with this post and it’s just a really creative way of asking for Deus Ex

Ion Storm: Aftershock when Civvie?
Alptraum
Oh hey Civvie o/ I was wondering if you need ideas for Patron Exclusive videos. Marrow mod for Blood (because you played Blood mods before) Bloom mod for GZDoom (Blood and Doom!)
Fullmetal
Project Warlock 2 has a second episode update. Pro Warlock 2 when civvie?
Wakelyn
just in case nobody else caught it, at the beginning of episode 3 the sewer count gets updated to 268 twice in a row
Riff82
Figured you would get to this gem eventually.
Lobstarooo
I’ve been waiting for this one! We’ve been jankless for like, what, at least one whole video? Btw I recently found the sewer count secret in Wizordum. Are you finally getting royalties for these or what?
Mateusz Bartoszek
BLESSED BE THIS JANK! Thanks Civvie! PS Will you be taking a look at Wrath AoR since it's (finally) out? Cheers!
Suckerpunch5000
It's an instant mood lifter!
Dénes Hliva
12:56 Oh, the Deus Ex 2000 videos is coming soon? Maybe even the next one? Ooh! Goodie!
Ashley Johnson
Seeing a new Civvie vid is always a treat! Sorry you had to experience Bubsy 3D though... 😬
Shawn Grant
Little buddy gives me some serious R-Type vibes.
Thyrork
Heeeell yes.

Damn fine work! Legit, decently GOOD DOSJank! This, kids.... THIS is why Civvie is the pinnacle of online entertainment. Go forth and continue to conquer, all while basking in the comforting glow of nonconsensual sewer love.
Valora Inverse
Oh wow, the game was...surprisingly less awful than expected, given the source. Honestly seems like something Derek StopSkeletons would put on Punching Weight, if he were more PC-game inclined, what with all the everything going on here.
Burning Fish
I kept hearing the houndeyes from Half-Life. It's either very possibly from my own brain or they used the same sound for the squirting blood.
Finn Kempers
Wonderful stuff, another DOS game! :D so many go almost unspoken about

"One must imagine civvie happy".

I can't hear a southern accent without thinking of that weirdo. Thanks for ruining an entire swath of the United States for me, Lindsey.
Civvie
PO'ed came out first on the 3DO, but had a Playstation port that was done by Accolade so you could be on the right track!
Civvie
It's not meant to be a Lindsay Graham impression, though I'm glad the accent is at least somewhat close.
Civvie
Times are tough.
Mario_bland
Can anyone who voluntarily plays bubsy 3d be considered well?
Ilkka Karppinen
An Accolade DOS jank FPS from back when I was 13 that I’ve never even heard about?! Hell yes - stick it in my veins! Fun episode, man. 🙂👍 As a side note, I’m not familiar with Bubsy, and initially thought the ’teeth brushing’ -gag was legit footage. So… well done! (And/or that one Happy Tree Friends dose just once with good friends only, I swear, a long time ago may have left me with some desensitization and residual brain damage.)

"Indeed, what could pawsibly go wrong?" Actionable pun detected ⚡️
Thomas Vasquez
If this quote makes it to a Civvie-themed merch shirt I am absolutely buying it.
Ilkka Karppinen
@Civvie: That was the mantra I lived by back when I taught 8th & 9th grades.
Steve Downes
Reading that totally kills the illusion of Civvie being incarcerated XD Still love you Civvie, don't worry!
Burt Fuckman
Huh... If I didn't know better I'd think that CV-18 is just Civvie doing a Lindsey Graham impression.
Dream0fSkye
I like how you keep a very distinct character from you. I know playing a bit can sometimes take on a life of its own, and often actors have a hard time separating themselves from their characters. Glad you made the distinction between the two, and made the clarification that you are doing absolutely fine.
HolyJunkie
My uneducated guess is the engine's either related to Marathon or PO'ed. I'm not certain why those two titles came up in my head tho.
Banjo Track
Excellent, more DOS trash!
Alex Morales
THANKS A MILLION

I don't know why Discord has problems with these links (they're set to never expire and have infinite uses) but here, try this new one: https://discord.gg/43KFFuyn2F

Awesome as always Civvie but is there any way to join the server? Been trying for a while TwT

Fuck yes

Hm sounds like a normal day for me.

I'm shocked the bit in the beginning about mazrium didn't trip the hubardium counter

Civvie
I like to keep it vague and have terrible things happening in the background.
Thomas Vasquez
Hell yeah, love me some DOS jank! Speaking of Civvie's descent into madness and paranoia, would we possibly one day see a canonical explanation / deep-dive of the world lore? I totally get and understand a lot of it is probably just throwaway jokes and ideas, but the overarching cosmic horror vibe along with conspiracy theories and black sites just scratches a lot of very specific itches.
Civvie
That's what I say about half the games I talk about.
Eisengratz
Oh my god I remember this, why do I remember this
AlterFox13
It's jank o'clock
Tore Schweer
Studio? Upstairs? But in the videos you are clearly in prison?!? What is this trickery?
Kyron Meza
A lot of this Janks are copied an pasted, whole stories, gameplay, so it gets a little confusing.
