soweee this took a minute, I got lost in America for 20 days and 20 nights. they found my ass in a dennys in minnesota wearing nothing but a pair of snow white cowboy boots and a luger taped to my chest. i am gods greatest soldier
There are but unfortunately Mollineux is so good at what he does he makes products capable of skirting the law. That said, I'm surprised the prize winner didn't take him to court.
One thing you missed which I think is hilarious, the scram Shrek 5 thing was supposed to last for a single day as an April fools joke. They got the game banned forever as an April fools joke, which to be fair is pretty funny.
"This is really painting yourself into a corner." At this point, I'm pretty sure painting himself into a corner with impossible promises is Peter Molyneux's fetish.
"Can you imagine cosmetics you have to rent?!" DO NOT GIVE THE AAA INDUSTRY IDEAS!!!! EDIT: guys, I wasn't asking for examples of the AAA gaming industry being shit. See, back in the day, we had these things called "jokes"....
14:58 I believe the only time he has a PR handler was towards the end of his run at Lionhead. If I remember correctly, Microsoft wan't to happy about him lying about Project Milo. Peter Molyneux is either a compulsive liar or a scam artist. Fable was the only time I fell victim. Was it a good game? Arguably. Was it anywhere close to what he promised? Obviously not, as I had exhausted the game's content in less than a week. The fact that he was eventually given a handler for PR speaks volumes.
Hey Pissboy Deluxe69! I don't know if this comment will make its way to you, but thanks for doing what you do. You mentioned at the end of the Steam's Worst Games video that you've been struggling with your mental health and the creative process, among other things that contributed to you making this channel. As someone who also deals regularly with mental gremlins, your content has been a consistent source of joy for me for several years now. Your humor and wit, be it in more traditional jokes or your style of editing, are exceptional and can manifest a laugh on even the most down and dark of days. It's not easy to filter out all the negativity and vitriol on the internet, but you're doing a great job! Thanks for all the top quality content over the years :)
The working situation in the studio behind The Day Before sounds like one of those Chinese sweatshops with mob ties where you can't quit or refuse to "volunteer" without potentially losing a few fingers, I hope the former staff can find employment somewhere at least a bit less exploitative.
The day before devs are back running a Kickstarter scam now asking for more money and promising that this time they'll be honest and good boys and not scam everyone with a barely functional asset flip scam.
I used to play scram back in the day, it was a genuinely fun little experience. Fun to see somebody cover all of the development drama and the shrek gag
renting cosmetics makes me think of MapleStory back in the day. idk if their cash shop is still like that, but when I was a tween, that shit only lasted 3 months and then you had to rebuy it
Shoutouts to Benbo Quest, which was delisted from steam after changing its whole steam page to being for Team Fortress 3 It's on the Nintendo switch now
I bought Godus shortly after release, not knowing about the whole cube business. It looked like a simplified, low energy game you could play casually so I didn't really have much in the way of expectations. I have to say, I've played a fair few of Mollineux's games, and the Black and White series is in my top five of all time, but even this actively disappointed me. It was every word for boring in the dictionary but i believe a very fitting cap to his legacy as an over hyping twat.
Amazing how he could never deliver anything as unique, smart, and ambitious as Black and White 1. That game was leagues ahead of NPC AI in the early 2000's with how you would train your creature. Black and White 2 was an okay city-builder with weak RTS aspects and horrifically boring side quests. Fable 1 was decent, but massively under-delivered what was promised. Creative man, but so full of shit.
He's been doing that since Populous II. How the hell does that charlatan keep getting funded? Meanwhile there's hundreds of really promising projects that are flying under the radar because Molyneux and other piss artists are busy chatting absolute shite as always.
something funny about scram, i was actually pretty close with Quire for a while because he was a mod on the discord server for the game Raft. he randomly dissapeared one day and I never knew why. this is how i found out lol
Man ever since the reveal trailer I knew The Day Before wasn't real. Called that shit from the start. The game was like that because they cobbled it together in like 9 months
I didn't really pay it any attention back when it came out, but watching it now, it's pretty obviously fake. Kinda difficult to understand why everyone got so hyped up.
"Can you imagine cosmetics you have to rent?" Yes, actually I can. Counter Strike 2 had an update around the time this video was uploaded in which you could now rent a collection of skins, only the newest case but future cases will all have this feature, for the price of a case and a key. The community believes this is a preemptive work around to the supposed ban on cases/loot boxes in video games that China is planning and not so much a predatory monetization model.
If there's another game you could talk about that no longer can be bought is Domina, a game made by a developer gone completely crazy post-pandemic. He started to add weird patch notes that basically condoned his audience to not wear masks and it became clear he was tinfoil-hatting a lot to the point it became clear he really needed help. The only reason the game got taken down was because he made the "one joke" towards trans people and Steam got really angry at that.
My favourite part of the whole _The Day Before_ debacle is that they said they never claimed the game would be an MMO or a sandbox game when the first trailers literally calls it an open-world MMO. Also, glad tos ee that the nrothers in charge, who argue it's not a scame because they "didn't take anyone's money" (which is a lie), demanded fines from the workers, who did nothing wrong.
if you ever hear of someone plagiarizing an advert (not copying an advertisement strategy or an angle for marketing a product, but literally STEALING OTHER ADS’ WORDS) there is a ballpark 0% chance it’s a good product, and a decent likelihood it’s an outright scam. someone with the resources and/or the talent to make a good product is not going to steal words from others to advertise that product, for many reasons.
Really surprised you didn't talk about Digital H...I'm not gonna type that second word because filters can be weird. But maybe you felt Knudsen did enough. If anyone is curious for more games like this, check out the Down The Rabbit Hole vids about it.
I actually tried the Godus mobile version before, it's okay but so heavily monetized that within an hour or so of playing you're just kinda paywalled out of the rest of the game
YEAH i remember i played it all the time on my mom's ipad as a kid (like, 2014ish) and i loved it, but grew bored of it after a while since everything was so hard to get without paying money (and god knows my 8 yr old ass wasn't asking my mom "can i buy some funny pink orbs in the ipad game" LMAO)
If you ever do another one like this you should check out 'Domina' Actually pretty cool game, but got delisted do to the dev putting sexist and hate speech in the game updates........ And in the patch notes
6:45 it kind of seems fair if someone is giving in awful quality work that needs redoing. But, I don't trust them(or most companies) to be honest in determining if it's bad and that they don't just want to pay since there's a huge Incentive to lie.
The Day Before has had a better marketing campaing than Concord, i get to know about concord because of the "'woke'" controversy on a game that alledgedly was in developement for 8 years... talking about marketing
Those games mentioned on this vid were more than just bad, they're TOO ugly to exist on steam or any other platform EVER. Let alone of them bein titanic cringe
soweee this took a minute, I got lost in America for 20 days and 20 nights. they found my ass in a dennys in minnesota wearing nothing but a pair of snow white cowboy boots and a luger taped to my chest. i am gods greatest soldier
Wow
At least you came a lot.
Wow, you were in America and didn't die? Congrats!
@@SubPriestPepsi Making a lot of assumptions there.
Sounds like my prom. It was soooo good
At this point, why isn't Mollineux in jail? The man has been selling snake oil for 25 years now. Aren't there consumer laws in the UK?
Because his snake oil is made with actual snakes... It still does nothing
There are but unfortunately Mollineux is so good at what he does he makes products capable of skirting the law. That said, I'm surprised the prize winner didn't take him to court.
nope, we are trying to change consumer laws about video games, check stopkillinggames, but in the EU, not the UK... sorry
He's rich. The rich are basically never punished.
Peter Molynuex is a real life Micahel Scott. "Theres uh....a surprise. Its amazing....promise. Its....life changing.
To be fair, had Godus been really good, that kind of money could be potentially life changing.
One thing you missed which I think is hilarious, the scram Shrek 5 thing was supposed to last for a single day as an April fools joke. They got the game banned forever as an April fools joke, which to be fair is pretty funny.
4:56 The random Twomad jumpscare. I swear like when looking back at old tweets the guy just randomly pops up.
What's the story on that account?
@@itxihe died
To be fair, anything is a bad game when Sex with Hitler 2 exists
Why is there a game called sec with Hitler?AND WHY DID IT GET A SEQUEL?
@@AdamDj-ic3krthere's a sex simulator 12 on steam, anything can get a sequel
"This is really painting yourself into a corner."
At this point, I'm pretty sure painting himself into a corner with impossible promises is Peter Molyneux's fetish.
It really is amazing. Every time he fails, he promises he won't make any more impossible promises, then just instantly does it again.
"Can you imagine cosmetics you have to rent?!" DO NOT GIVE THE AAA INDUSTRY IDEAS!!!!
EDIT: guys, I wasn't asking for examples of the AAA gaming industry being shit. See, back in the day, we had these things called "jokes"....
ManyKudos, congratulations on your new position as an EA executive
This is hilariously common in older Korean games actually.
oh jesus he predicted the new cs update
korean games are already like that lmao
This actually happened with a game I used to play in high school called S4 League.
Oh I CAN imagine a game where you pay real money to rent premium cosmetic items. I grew up playing MapleStory.

The man’s got a fat mouth either way lol
I feel like fable is good in spite of Peter Molyneux even if they are pretty short overall

Looking at the posters on your wall makes me feel like I’m having a stroke
Oh no way! I've matched with you on Grindr so many times (multiple accounts for speed running purposes). Now I'm matching with you on UA-cam!
You have great taste then
speedrunning purposes is killing me LMAO
The working situation in the studio behind The Day Before sounds like one of those Chinese sweatshops with mob ties where you can't quit or refuse to "volunteer" without potentially losing a few fingers, I hope the former staff can find employment somewhere at least a bit less exploitative.
That "Matress" poster is killing me. I need that. Kudos backgrounds rule. Especially his BeefBoys backgrounds.

Jumpscare at 2:36
45 days? Still lasted longer than Concord.
Really enjoying this format! You can really tell you’re enjoying this more and it’s great to see, feels much more “you”, keep it up mate!

I have Godus! It makes me sad, i was looking forward to what it would become and then... Didn't
Its rare to see someone have so much fun talking about games so horrible. Love seeing you have fun.
The fucking burp gave me a heart attack
Wow I didn't even know how deep the Day Before rabbit hole is and I watched videos about it.
Shoutouts to Benbo Quest, which was delisted from steam after changing its whole steam page to being for Team Fortress 3

7:28 I remember IGN UK podcast said it was just going to be a video of Peter Molyneux playing with himself when the cube was unlocked 😂
He's been doing that since Populous II. How the hell does that charlatan keep getting funded? Meanwhile there's hundreds of really promising projects that are flying under the radar because Molyneux and other piss artists are busy chatting absolute shite as always.
Lmfao I remember scram, I also remember how confused I was when “shrek 5” was in my library
Jesus christ that scram game, what an absolute dumpster fire, can't stop laughing to myself over the sheer trainwrek
Oh yeah btw, the whole "renting microtransactions" thing came from maplestory. Nearly every single cosmetic from the cash shop had a rental date.

@@OrgaNik_MusicThe average person is just kinda dumb and gullible.
lol the dev 'accidentally' making the payments recur daily is a genius scammer, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

At least the title was honest. The game was made The Day Before it was released.

Getting to steam's top wishlisted is the games equivalent of getting on the cover of business week
Nice to see a poster of the 1999 epic blockbuster, ‘Matress’.
177 countries have been banned from a game. Is this a new low score?
Love the format, buddy. Keep it up

Greasy Gooner, let's go!!!
I actually tried the Godus mobile version before, it's okay but so heavily monetized that within an hour or so of playing you're just kinda paywalled out of the rest of the game

Wow this video reminded me of when my Dad took off while awfully steamed
Man I'm still sad about Godus, I loved the little bit we had
Never knew any of the back story though, explains why it was full of weird commentary
If you ever do another one like this you should check out 'Domina'
Actually pretty cool game, but got delisted do to the dev putting sexist and hate speech in the game updates........ And in the patch notes
Hope the trip to the USA was good! Glad to see you back
Day Before lasted longer than Concord
Man just belched aggressively in disgust at the day before. Excellent.
Fable: TLC is my all-time favourite game. I hope they can recatch the magic of Fable 1 in Fable 4
Who are you? Your brilliant and im mad I only just found you. This is like my 4th video. Man your so epic
Godus was such a good game, still mad that it got ruined.
I love the fable games. Also you should do a video on sea of thieves lol
Kudos to that barbaric burp, my man.
omg i played godus all the time on my mom's ipad as a kid! it was super cool lol
Damn... i really thought this was your room.
until the hands at the end of the vid :D.
so naive :D
Mideo Kudjima strikes again.
"Main channel video" - I didn't realize that this is a second channel. What is the name of the main channel?
great video manykooldos
Kinda prefer this over your main channel
i fell for the godus scam at the start, a day before it was taken off steam i reported the game,
i like to believe they took it off because of me.
6:45 it kind of seems fair if someone is giving in awful quality work that needs redoing.
But, I don't trust them(or most companies) to be honest in determining if it's bad and that they don't just want to pay since there's a huge Incentive to lie.
I remember Godus on mobile. I think it was interesting but not really all that great or very deep.
The Day Before has had a better marketing campaing than Concord, i get to know about concord because of the "'woke'" controversy on a game that alledgedly was in developement for 8 years... talking about marketing
missed a good 3 minutes of the video because I was trying to figure out if the mario 64 poster back there actually said big penis or not
Let’s GOON bro
Commenting to help with the algorithm
I may have never made a successful game, but at least I've never scammed anyone
the greasy WHAT?
Oh damn. I played that god game on mobile! It was alright. Fun time waster.
nice chill video, im gessing much easier to produce that the main channel stuff but still pretty nice
Thank you Kudos, Very nice
isn't renting skins a thing in CS now?
Those games mentioned on this vid were more than just bad, they're TOO ugly to exist on steam or any other platform EVER. Let alone of them bein titanic cringe
fun vid, I enjoyed it. 😊😊
Steam is what comes out of my toilet after I eat Taco Bell.
Lmao
Your will energy is low. Watch that.
They used AI voices for the trailers btw
Why does your matrix poster say matress
You really need a link to your main channel somewhere in your channel description. I tried looking for 5 minutes and gave up. No sub for you
Next do games that SHOULD be taken off steam 🤣
Lol this is so funny
uploaded too late didn’t get to watch it on the way to therapy thanks a lot mate you just undid years of work 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 /j
Fable 😂 feel 😂
