GOBB VIII TEASER JUST DROPPED I REPEAT I REPEAT

[aceeestarr]

Doodles:]

[aceeestarr]

disregard my previous post. Chris Pratt voices Flumbo in GoBB VIII

[aceeestarr]

A Thought Before we get More GoBB VIII News Next Friday

The matter of who’s going to voice Flumbo (and Brushista for that matter) has been on my mind for a good while, and since I don’t believe castings are ever going to get released until the actual game drops, I wanted to speculate I bit until I came to a conclusion that I find interesting.

What if Flumbo’s just mute? Hear me out on this one.

He was only outside of the closet for a few hours max, so he wouldn’t have many interactions to practice speech with in the first place. In that short period of gameplay during GoBB 0, he never speaks, as the characters never respond to anything he might’ve said. Normally, I’d just chalk that up to him being our player character, (and likely lacking any VA at that point in time,) but some other things have put me onto the idea of Flumbo not speaking in GoBB VIII.

For one, he’s the only character with an official wall art that doesn’t get a speech bubble. Never a ‘Flumbo says’, or even his own independent sticker teaser like Brushista or Syringeon. Not to mention, he’d probably be staying quiet for all that time spent in the closet, no? Talking too loud isn’t ideal in hide n’ seek, after all.

Can he read and understand speech? Obviously. From the jump, he’s been able to. But I do think it’d be really interesting to see the effects of his long-term isolation and that incident with Ramamba affecting his development so greatly.

He’s probably gonna have a VA along with Brushista, but it was a cool thought.

Y’know, since it’s kinda been confirmed that Givanium is flammable, does that mean someone could fully destroy a mascot with fire FNaF remnant-style? I’m aware that Nabnaleena survived the blast from that Givanium barrel in GoBB VII, but that’s not directly lighting something, is it? Maybe it depends on if it’s pressurized in a container or not.

what I’m saying is I want to make Givanium molotov cocktails in GoBB VIII

bro think he uthman lmao

Missing Banban Review, Thoughts, and Ramblings [No Spoilers Until the Cut]

Overall? This is genuinely a good time. Really charming, and very true to the chaotic nature of the core series games. I’ll list some of my favorite random one-off things here. Go see it for yourself if you can. I need more people to yap about this with.

The guy fishing in the pond where the banstar is. Oh my god I love him.

Bob and Seb. Yes, their dialogue is really long, but I thought it was more than worth it for the fact that

BloodyNeedle enjoyers will be eating GOOD. FULL BUFFET.

I’m not sure how much that applies to BitterToad enjoyers, but you’ll most definitely get some material to work with, especially past the final fight in the epilogue cutscene[s].

Oddly enough a commentary on economic manipulation and worker exploitation. Thank you, Brothers Euphoric.

BANBALEENA PLOT RELEVANCE. IT’S ONLY MINOR UNTIL THE END BUT IT’S THERE. THEY HEARD MEEEE

The Stinger Flynn design in this game is actually pretty cool. I might use it as another reference for my own. Same with Nabnab.

Also NABNAB GETS A VOICE AND PERSONALITY! Again, not canon, but WE’RE BEING FED NONETHELESS!!!

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT ENDING AND WHAT WERE THE IMPLICATIONS!!!!!!

Live Zolphius reaction.

[Spoilers and Spoiler-Adjacent Information Under The Cut. You’ve Been Warned.]

Flumbo’s split-second easter egg was a nice touch. He’s also partially-visible on the far right edge of the promotional artwork for the game.

Brushista still hasn’t made an appearance here, which confused me somewhat seeing how Flumbo made a full appearance in other promotional artwork. Now I’m even more curious about them than Flumbo.

There is another LSD-induced Stinger Flynn beach journey cutscene in this game. I won’t be spoiling what it is. Please go seek it out for yourself.

The final fight was. Something. I was right to be speculative of that sun comment at the end of my previous post. Do I understand what happened? No. Do I get why Bittergiggle did that? No. Was it fun? Yes.

Adding on to my previous bullet point, Bittergiggle alludes to something while he’s “possessed” by the Sun before the final fight. It’s as if he’s briefly speaking from Flumbo’s perspective. Seeing as he can be vaguely associated with sun imagery, [i.e. his facial markings,] it may be that he’s somehow meant to be the Sun or vice versa? Or I’m overthinking it all and the Euphoric Bros just made Bittergiggle reference closets and the weakness of human flesh to make us point at the camera and start soyjakking. I’d say it’s the latter. But who knows?

I just need some time to think about all of this, honestly. It’ll probably make more sense when VIII comes out, or the brothers may just clear things up in their discord server. Time will tell and all that.

There’s also a lack of Nabnaleena here, even though she’s somewhat-implied to be a part of this whole picture in a conversation between Bob and Seb, claiming that Nabnab’s in a suit because he may be going to a wedding. That was cute. No Tarta Bird appearances or mentions, though. All the Tartaheads will surely be outraged.

Zolphius had a lot of screentime here, which I was pleasantly surprised with. It’s honestly endeared me towards him. His spritework is pretty good as well, which is probably part of why I’m feeling that way.

Banban just being somewhere else the entire time was very Banban of him to do, plus it references the fact that he went off alone to go get Flumbo while VII was taking place when he remarks that he was “visiting and old friend”. That means he’s probably gonna be fine in VIII. At least in the beginning.

Final thoughts? I enjoyed it. Gameplay was fun, customization was silly, Mr. Kabob Man in the Stingermobile whip was lovely, and I want to sleep.
