@@Laughing_Dragon Othello, or _ The Tragedy of Othello, the Moor of Venice,_ is the drama famous for the titular Othello, a military commander, is manipulated and pushed into committing murder and conspiracy by his deceitful ensign/lieutenant, Iago, for Iago's own selfish needs. It is well-remembered for studying a manipulative character's reasoning, motivations, and methods and often referenced even today for the writing of characters like that; it's also referenced in the Disney movie, Aladdin, for the name of the parrot.

This game is a family friendly excursion into the wonderful world of taxes, their impact on the society, and the Death Star commonly used to resolve tax disputes. (souls sold separately, ignore the piles of corpses)

"I don't care who you send, you'll never make me pay taxes!" Vergil approves of this message.

That was rhe best cutscene I've seen in a game in years!

Rimmy: Is that a fucking rebel windmill? My knights might be able to challenge that. Me [still reeling from the MacBeth tangent]: did… Rimmy just make a Don Quixote reference? What is happening today?

I love how its all medieval units and then MAGIC SPACE LASER

This game takes “divine right to rule” to a whole new level

This game has really strong “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” feel in it’s sense of humor. The description of the uncle’s castle was one of those out-there similes Douglas Adams liked to use

Rimmy's Rebellion in a Nutshell: I WILL NEVER PAY TAXES AS LONG AS I LIVE

An interesting detail in that "The devs aren't done yet" cutscene; is that the counsellor has his arm in a sling. Well it's more like a noose for his arm but that's the medieval ages for you.

They could not be more promising with this game. The story is funny, the gameplay looks just complex enough to be challenging and rewarding, the art style is endearing and not system breaking, and there’s enough different things you can do each mission to play the, entirely differently. This gon be good!

It was nice hearing Rimmy laugh and read my joke out on stream but hearing it in a video makes me wanna cry happy tears

i really loved the less is more cutscenes, really great stuff

What many dont know is that puppy might be making another appearance

16:34 Reminds me of: "pulling names from a hat doesnt seem like the most stable basis for a government" "but at least it isnt corrupt" Now that I think about it, it was propably a monthy python refrence.

Actually I agree, having since gone back and played the other route. While I still won, it was waaaay closer to a defeat. I think the main reason was rebel camps were so much more common and spread throughout the whole map. I couldn't clear them all in time.

God that opening cutscene was hilarious

Wow, Great video would love more of this

In these dark days this is my favorite channel in a long time everybody just turns to boring or not very good gaming content

it probably moves faster than they are billions because you dont have to worry about 1 zombies sneaking in and rather quickly turning 200 people into zombies

I'm sorry, I was just expecting age of empire but funnier, until you brought the fucking hammer of dawn.
