History Trivia / DeceasedCrab

* ColbertBump: Due to his tendency to play fairly obscure games, there are probably probably several. However, the biggest example would have to be ''VideoGame/LaMulana''. The vast majority of fans of the game, especially western fans, can be traced to DC's LP of the game.

** As he explained when he went back to his usual hammy-ness for ''VideoGame/ActRaiser'', he did so because so many people asked him if he was depressed or if something was wrong because he wasn't at his usual level of energy. As he put it: "Apparently if I don't talk like a game show host, everyone assumes I'm depressed."

** Towards the end of ''VideoGame/LaMulana2'', he ran into a GameBreakingBug introduced in a patch that left him locked in a boss room, unable to warp away. This would be the tipping point for his frustrations with the game's developers, and rather than perform the suggested workaround, he suspended his playthrough until it was fixed, which would not be for months, and by then he was so angry with Nigoro that he continued putting off finishing the game for many months more. When he was finally able to bring himself to resume playing, he simply completed the remaining puzzles, beat the final boss, and [[TranquilFury cut off his commentary very curtly]]. He has since gone on record he will not return to the game no matter what features are added later, and has lost any goodwill he had for the project.

* PromotedFanboy: NIGORO, the development team behind ''VideoGame/LaMulana'', liked his LP of the game so much that they mentioned him in the site's official blog. Not only that they put his name in the UsefulNotes/WiiWare version's credits under "Special Thanks".

* FanDisillusionment: While he remains a fan of the original ''VideoGame/LaMulana'', his frustrations with [[VideoGame/LaMulana2 the sequel]] (specifically the [[GameBreakingBug rampant bugs]], [[DudeNotFunny tasteless translations]], and a patch introducing a [[UnwinnableByMistake softlock]] which was never rolled back) caused him to disavow the game and swear never to make another video covering it.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: He has heard about the animé series ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'', and has passed up the suggestion to make a LetsPlay of ''VideoGame/GriefSyndrome'', a fan-game that is based on that series.

** Had a mild one during La-Mulana 2 when he ran into a GameBreakingBug that locked him in a boss room. His frustration and disappointment (which he left for the description and comments) were enough to put the LP on hold until Nigoro patches the bug.

* CreatorBreakdown: He had one of these in the middle of his ''Shadowrun'' LP all because his viewers tried to correct his pronunciation of the name "Kitsune" complete with TheReasonYouSuckSpeech and disabling the comments for several parts. Whether this was for comedy purposes is still unknown.

* EnforcedMethodActing: According to an interview, DC knew that the [[VideoGame/LaMulana Hell Temple]] reward would be [[spoiler:a skimpy swimsuit]], but ''not'' that [[spoiler:the game would show a ''full-screen'' portrait of Lemeza wearing it]], and thus his [[HeroicBSOD screams and cries of agony]] was for real.

** Losing a suspend-save right before the final boss in [[spoiler:''VideoGame/HandOfFate'' due to a patch changing the layout of the unlock tree, as well as the creators' rather uncaring response to his complaints about it,]] resulted in him [[RageQuit calling the LP off]], regretting ever starting it, and telling his viewers not to buy the game.
