Plot Twist: Greg hires the Cyclops to chase people toward him so he can have all that attention.

"Remember me?"
"I'll try."
I dunno if that was just a cruel joke or a comment on his semi-self-awareness as an NPC. Either way it was brilliant.

Great day for Greg actually, someone accepted all his quests, listened to him without skipping and he sold all his wares. I also don't see any garlick so he propably sold that too. Good for you Greg 👍

[Brubarov]

I love how the NPC does not feel threatened at all, not even a bit, because he cannot be killed by an "enemy". Perfect!

[nighthawk]

I was half expecting Greg would ignore Hamish like everyone does but no, the first merchant you meet in the game are always gonna be your bro till the end.

[Mizufluffy]

Seeing that "Say goodbye" option there was surprisingly emotional because it suddenly had more than one meaning.

Hamish is so damn good man. Every video he’s in he just nails it. He’s great

[warpuppy]

All this skit needed was Rowan standing by saying "For the peace of the kingdom."

[andyventures]

Hamish is just damn perfect. His going through the stages of accepting his fate ...from denial through grief to acceptance.

[maisiesummers]

That cyclops is incredibly patient, giving the adventurer time to say goodbye to his friend. What a nice fellow.

[thaddaeusrobinson]

What an emotional rollercoaster. Made me honestly feel bad for hamish. Good job guys! Love you!

[SmittyWerbs]

I love that this is a continuation from when Hamish couldn’t keep his party healed enough to beat the cyclops. Solid call back to a year ago guys!

[darkner]

I was not expecting a sequel to "Bards are kinda useless in combat".

[jaxstacks]

Greg's "I'll try" knowing he is, unfortunately, just an NPC and he remembers no "Adventurer" by name

[maxwhite]

0:27 that effect of making the cyclops look bigger looks Really good holy crap

[m.denonsens]

Hamish just standing there toward the end with his head bowed and crying quietly, broke my heart. That desperate bravery. 💗Great sketch as usual VLDL!

[DolphinDivePro]

I like to believe that Hamish has had to run from the Original Encounter way way way back in Epic NPC Lore but because he was in combat the entire time, he was unable to fast travel so has been running this entire time to escape combat range.

[TheRealWoofer]

Whomever worked on the cyclops did an amazing job. You guys are still killing it even without the new studio in operation yet. NPC Man forever! ❤️

[TheMC]

Greg is so calm because he knows that the cyclops' AI isn't programmed to attack him.

[inarisarp]

For those that didn't notice. When the sad music starts, Hamish (the bard) is playing it himself. 2:08 He's playing his own death ballad. What a trouper.
