The version of the game that Wirtual showcases in most of his videos, including this one(Trackmania Nations Forever) is actually free to play on Steam.
Because : 1. the game itself is very simple to understand. There’s a car, and a track. That’s it, classic racing game. 2. Nice editing 3. Nice naration and explanation
Holy fuck seeing this in my recommended, what a game Trackmania nations was. I used to built tracks on trackmania exchange which servers picked up on back in like 2006 under the name of Racerspooky Gotta see if those tracks are still around. Genius video btw, very chill story telling documentary style'd showcase. Cheers
@@CombraStudios Haha imagine! That would be fun if I came across old names. allthough I played the game from 2005 til like 2008 and I imagine a lot of new people came to the scene. Fun to see the game though after such a long time
@@Spooky1611 I love how some communities can stay dedicated & care for their game for years even after the general crowd went on. I have so many good memories of me playing trackmania with friends too. Either together on one pc, as a lan-party or online. I still remember how we spent so much time designing racetracks & then went on to try every stupid shit to break each others's record. It was the worst when you as the trackmaker lost your first place :D
Damn, dude, I just love how Wirt decided "My favourite game has so much extremely interesting stories about shaving tenths of a second from each track once per year every blue moon and nobody is talking about it? Fine, I'll do it myself." then done it and it is extremely interesting
You guys are ridiculous 😂 I just wrote down what I was thinking and it's true. If some notification from Wirtual pops up, I stop what I am currently doing and go watch the video. I really enjoy this type of video more than anything on UA-cam currently.
@@EmilM-pb2hn True, there's alot going on the new tm, it''s really booming. But all the records are new, doesn't make them worse but there's something appealing on records that are x years old getting broken
the amazing thing for me is not that they managed to do it, but that a single post in a forum can lead up to a community trying to accomplish it for 12 years. This makes me incredibly happy and sad at the same time, because it remembers me of my hardcore gaming times
For the longest time there was only one conceivable way to make glue dry faster. To let the passage of time have its way. But then one day something happened that forever changed the way we watch glue drying. Today we are going to talk about the....
The first time I saw this game was when I was in my brother in law's room, when I was a child. Now I have my own computer and decided to download TrackMania and give it a try. I then randomly got your videos recommended and watched some of them and I am absolutely fascinated by this game. TrackMania is a so simple game, the only thing you do is start a race and try to get the best record possible for yourself. But seeing how many players across the entire world play this game and especially specific maps like this for decades is absolutely mind blowing in my opinion. I am sure TrackMania does not have a very big audience of players but I love how active they are after 12 years now. It is like the game does not need any new players, because the community is such a strong one. :)
Me: "Um.. I have work tomorrow, I should probably go to sleep." My brain: "nah, you've got to learn about this video game from 2008 and the culture around it."
I just want to note. The fact that he use the Ori's OST makes this video even more satisfying. The perfect soundtrack for the perfect documentary of the perfect game.
@@Farteous Can't leave out Hollow Knight and FEZ tho. Dude has the perfect choice every time. If only there was some Risk of Rain Coalescence or Moisture Deficit.
I absolutely love how the Ori and the Blind Forest soundtrack was mixed in, with the ending bit tucked on just as the last run finishes. Such a cool detail, that anyone who played the game will appreciate! Edit: It's also awesome to see the symbiotic relationship between regular TM players and TAS users. Better to share a common goal and help each other than be hostile.
I don't even play the game. I did when I was in primary school so there is some nostalgia involved. I love the way you tell the story behind the records and also how you attempt challenges. I also like the motivation you give in some videos. My favorite quote in one of your videos are "Risking failure is what it takes to succeed". Awesome video. Can't wait for your next video.
Listening to trackmania stories is like reading an old diary with an inspiring story or like an entire adventure movie where every player goes on a quest for the perfect run.
I love how I've never played trackmania but recognize but some of these player's names just from your great videos. Your storytelling keeps me coming back.
Ty wirtual for making these beautiful videos. I do not even play tm but your voice and your story telling are so calm and relax that you help me a lot with my insomnia. Btw i follow you even on the other account and the passion you put in this game is so crazy that i decided to star playing tm. Ty so much for doing all this
I thought about this when I saw this track for the first time a couple of years ago. (I didn't know the community at all back then) Amazed that it's finally been done!
I just started watching your content and i love the content! I have not really played TM Nations the last years. But watching your content i am playing TM Nations every day now. Keep up the good work!
Just stumbled upon this video and gotta say this is exactly the type of stuff I find enjoyment in what a great video loved the commentary and Ori music at 11:00 really made it epic!
I've never played Trackmania but there's something about how you put a video that keeps me coming back to learn more and more about track histories and legendary players.
Hey Wirtual, I have been watching most of your channel. The content is amazing and I absolutely love the visualizations. I subscribed and can't wait to watch more! Thanks!
I don't play this game , but with your story telling OMG. I'm so hooked. I also get emotional when that Ori and the Blind forest sound track comes up 😭😭❤️❤️❤️

Plenty of those would be children's cartoons so that isn't really a compliment
Wirtual is the poet of Trackmania. There are many players, there is only 1 Wirtual

Honestly. I already love Wirtual's videos, but randomly hearing Outer Wilds' soundtrack in one of his videos made this one even better :)
This vidoe had Ori and Outer Wilds!!! I lost it.

The only thing you can't cut here is Wirtual's epic storytelling
Wirtual has an entire farm of what he can use for his content with the crazy amount of wrs and cuts that have been discovered
You reap what you sow. And Wirtual is sowing shortcut videos.
I look forward to all of them!
i hope that you never change your way of speaking, it is literally iconic at this point
I just want to mention that I absolutely LOVE your selection of music in your videos :3
You've had clips from several of my favourite games in there
Me: "Um.. I have work tomorrow, I should probably go to sleep."
My brain: "nah, you've got to learn about this video game from 2008 and the culture around it."
I just want to note.
The fact that he use the Ori's OST makes this video even more satisfying.
The perfect soundtrack for the perfect documentary of the perfect game.
Plus a touch of Outer Wilds for the inspirational bit at the end, music choice on this whole vid was excellent
@@Farteous Can't leave out Hollow Knight and FEZ tho. Dude has the perfect choice every time. If only there was some Risk of Rain Coalescence or Moisture Deficit.
Finally! Someone else who heard it!

wirtual uploads one more video with ori ost and i nut myself
The music choice is phenomenal, the soundtracks for Outer Wilds and Ori somehow fit perfectly.
The 2 best games in each of their classes
I absolutely love how the Ori and the Blind Forest soundtrack was mixed in, with the ending bit tucked on just as the last run finishes.
Such a cool detail, that anyone who played the game will appreciate!

Like always Wirtual, another Banger of a video. Also the potential here is insane, amazing narration too
The Ori music with this run was EPIIIIIIC!
the final song is from outer wilds though
Timber Hearth popping up out of nowhere at the end too
I love that your channel is an encyclopedia for Trackmania’s history
This video is pure magic. Thanks Wirtual for putting so much effort in a video for a game that I play for 14 years now.
Some of the shots you put together for these videos are absolutely glorious man. Keep up the amazing work.
These videos are such a blessing to the Trackmania community!
Bet thisll be a bomber vid

Ori and the blind forest ost !
I almost teared up hearing that...
and then Outer wilds ost :d
Dream
Dude thanks for editing
ori and the blind forest. its cave music im pretty sure.
Why are these videos so interesting, I’ve never even heard of this game before I saw one of your videos a week or 2 ago and I can’t stop watching them
Listening to trackmania stories is like reading an old diary with an inspiring story or like an entire adventure movie where every player goes on a quest for the perfect run.
Thanks to all the players who indirectly collab with Wirtual by breaking maps and setting world records.
Ori and the Blind Forest OST, perfect selection of music for such a milestone
Ori and the blind forest soundtrack always goes hard tho
Outer Wilds soundtrack was great as well
Ori music is God tier
As soon as I heard it I came to the comments😂 so glad others also heard it
The Ori OST fit this very well. Good job to whoever edited this! :)
Ori and the blind forest music, respect++
damn love the Ori and Outer Wilds OST
The way you present these videos remind me of multi-million dollar documentaries man great job
this is so epic. the best thing imo is that this story takes such a long time for over 10 years... this is pretty much history and that is just great!
I've never even heard of Trackmania until yesterday yet I'm %100 invested in this game now
Bro like 1 month ago you had 100.000 subs. And now you have almost 400.000?! That’s crazy but very well deserved
Suddenly, I feel like playing some Ori and the Blind Forest.
