Hey everyone. I just noticed an editing error that wasn't in the original cut. After making some final edits for the UA-cam public premiere, I appear to have "ironically" messed something up that was working just fine before. You'll notice Note #18 isn't there (as in it didn't pop up on the screen)! This bugs me so much, but I'm just going to have to learn to live with it and be extra careful next time. I'll go ahead and give you the imgur link if you'd like to see the note attached with it! Thanks for watching everyone :D imgur.com/wlPmVJg
@@MJFShadoW520 I mean to say the Note itself did not appear on the screen. All of the notes are filmed and implemented into the video, just the note itself was hidden behind the footage due to a new layer being created on top of it as I wanted to de-saturate it. The original footage was super bright already because of the slot canyon setting!
If you can find a way to manage the turrets go for it. Make sure to go on more egg runs tho if you do. It’s not like there will be any wyverns guarding it lol. Seriously that would be awesome
I love this series and I’m glad their doing the scorched earth pages now Edit: after watching this I got slightly emotional, the John dekaha pages always were fascinating to me
Hey! Thanks for popping into my stream today, sorry it wasn’t working when you showed up 😬 but it’s cool knowing an awesome creator like you knows about me!
@@kishy6558 because she origianally played on mobile and then got bored of it and did pc, now shes doing mobile again because a lot of the og fans want it back
The energy and effort everyone puts into these is amazing! I love the little details, like the buildings being destroyed and the, "Come get some!" from John. Props to all involved!
Hey all! As a general reminder, you can watch the survival story (right now!) before it releases if you sign up to become a Patron of even the lowest tier over here! Link can be found below. Thank you! www.patreon.com/neddythenoodle
Just awesome! John and Raia are one of the best stories 'hidden' in Ark (for those players who can't be bothered to read the explorer notes....). Full props to you and your voice actors/models for bringing the story to life.
I'm glad you like them. They take tons of work, and I'm glad to be able to work on these kinds of projects bringing Marc Soskin's story to life in this way -- albeit in a fan-made way :)
You know that the video is good when you already know the outcome and you’re STILL sitting on the edge of your seat hoping somehow, someway, that Dahkeya would pull through in the end and make it out alive. Fantastic work to everyone involved and thank you for the time and energy put into making this. 🙏🏻
You have brought so much life to these explorer notes! I hope to see them continue. I know they take lots of time, energy, and money. All I will do what I can to support the continuation of these episodes. Thank you I love them
Dude these are phenomenal. Others have decent readthroughs, but yours, between the amazing voice acting and the intricate in game footage, knock them out of the park
This was absolutely incredible. Excellent voiceover, camera work, building and editing. These projects must take an obscene amount of time to coordinate, I can only imagine. Nicely done!
Your explorer note series are seriously the best Ark machinimas I've seen. Thank you for all the hard work making these and I look forward to seeing more!
Wow, that was absolutely amazing, I don't even know where to start. I loved every second of it.. *Mantis playing with pickaxes... :D :D* Incredible, how the video was made, with the original soundtrack behind it.. the great voiceovers.. Definetely cannot wait for more of these kind of videos, could be a ark-series, from island to genesis2. That's guaranteed something I would watch and I'm sure a lot more people would. Very nice, chapeau. words aren't enough for how much I enjoyed it, still have goosebumps thinking about it.
I love learning the lore of this game, and the way you bring it to life is astounding. Your channel is amazing and I admire all the effort you and other's who worked on this put into it! Awesome job. :D
This was awesome. The final note from Reia kinda gave me chills because I realized it is her who saves Helena and has been surviving on the Ark for years.
“Being attacked by spike throwing lizards, weapon wielding mantises and dragons is the worst thing to ever happen to a cowboy” “Have you ever heard of lumbago?” “…”
"Blondie" has gotta be some viking-age dude with an Old Norse name. John Dahkeya speaks to my soul. And props to Spencer Cannon for the delivery of the, "If you pull a stunt like that in my goddamn town," line!
Hey I'm new to Ark and been watching your videos when I'm done with a map and this one brought me to tears. You've done an insane job at this and I wanted to thank you for it!
Thanks for watching! If you'd like to be more immsersed into ARKs story, I created a mod called Explorer Notes Plus for the Steam version of the game that adds in the voice over from the survival stories into the notes themselves when you pick them up and view them. Check it out if you're interested! :) steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2871123928
I really love this series since it put the notes from just paper to full on roleplaying videos which to me enhances the context and atmosphere of the story of Ark so well. It really makes the story sound alive and I love it.
Hey Ned! These videos never ceases to amaze me you can tell the was care that has been put into this genuinely well done and thankyou for this outstanding video keep up the great content my friend 👏👏
I have to say,I'm so very surprised that this channel doesn't have way more subscribers. If nothing else,the production quality is astounding. Besides that,this is one of the only ways for me to learn the story of ark since I don't speak Latin, Chinese,and whatever other languages might be still coming. And out of the resources out there,this is IMO the most entertaining and captivating one out there. Bravo,this series is amazing work. I hope you'll find something similar to do after we run out of notes,this format is great.
Love these vid's bro, thanks for gathering all the explorer notes and then putting them all together in such well made episodes, I always wanted to know the story of the different arks but never had the time to find all the notes myself. Hope you make it all the way to gen 2
You did the impossible, you made ark lore fun and enjoyable and actually gave me a shock as an extra bonus there at the end. Your work is appreciated by many and I hope you continue.
Glad you liked our builds. If you’d like to see the process behind them, you can view our video on the behind the scenes: m.ua-cam.com/video/fkpSCgXBesM/v-deo.html&t
I always thought it was implied that John distracted the Wyverns while Ria made a break for it, but rereading the note again and seeing it depicted here makes me realize that they probably did beat the wyverns since they couldn’t outrun them on the sabertooth and John explicitly states that he’s not foolhardy enough take them by himself.
@@NeddyTheNoodle Thanks for the reply! Mad props to you and your team for your dedication to retelling the story as accurately as possible. Keep up the awesome work!
amazing work i personally have always been a lore junkie and have read all the notes but you bring them to life in a way i couldnt imagine thank you and all the people who work on this series this shit is amazing.
This is amazing! I honestly am so in love with your directing talent. All the work you have done is just fabulous. Your perspective is so unique! Thank you so much for all the hours of work and dedication.
I just finished raias story and I loved it, but this blew me away, this is the first time of seeing John's story put into some context other than just reading it. Very very well done! All of these are spectacular!
I'm not that sure why my comment didn't appear, but I love what you do Neddy. I just started watching your content and I am loving it. If I could, I would support you and all you do the best way I possibly could. Keep up the fantastic work. You are so SEVERELY UNDERRATED. I missed this because my sleep schedule is garbage. I went to sleep around 11:20 am, and it premiered at 12. The content you make deserves more than a million subscribers in my opinion! I will be here the whole way through. Please don't forget me when you are famous!
Great video, I love it even though I have 2 more days to wait until it premieres but it would always be high quality when it comes from NeddyTheNoodle.
Amazing! I didn’t even know this character existed since I haven’t played Scorch much. 10/10. Can’t wait to see more. This really is the best way to learn the Ark lore.
Hey neddy, look, I know you deserve more views, more subscribers, more everything… but please, even if it is not rewarding enough, please keep up with this series, it’s an amazing work, done with heart and passion, and i’m in love with it.

You sure? I just watched that part in the video...at about the 12:25 mark, that note you posted is in the video.
@@MJFShadoW520 I mean to say the Note itself did not appear on the screen.

It's fine! the voice and body actor(s) were still amazing! It's not like an editing mistake will change anything :)
I can’t wait for aberration my favourite map
Eats spicy goodness like a boss
RIP John, a real homie to the end.
Ya..😢
@@ML-sc3pt so does that mean one of the wyverns is named jack?
That ending gave me CHILLS! Spencer captured the greatest lines of John PERFECTLY, even the ones that weren't in the notes.
Yeah boiii. Looking forward to this one!
Raasclarck?!? You watch this channel too?!?!?
Yoo my two favorite youtubers
Oh what A suprise
Two awesome UA-camrs are united xD
Raasholes unite
Suddenly I have a strong desire to fill the trench with turrets...
If you can find a way to manage the turrets go for it. Make sure to go on more egg runs tho if you do. It’s not like there will be any wyverns guarding it lol. Seriously that would be awesome
Do it.
(Throaty palpatine voice)
@@ToSP. Someone hasn't played official pvp
Good luck with that.
Dude those ending scenes of the city crashing were epic!! As always it was a huge honor to work on this project!
This is just the beginning! Thanks for making this possible, ChipZz.
Chipzz too??? Is the whole community watching neddy
@@Judged-Dread of course! These videos are perfection!
@@CHipZz is axeman in this to
Hey chipzz, how did it feel to watch your incredible build sink into the ground? Lol
Never thought scorched earth had this amazing story. Gonna reinstall the map and search for all the Explorer notes now.
I am really excited!! Can't wait to meet the cowboy of Scorched Earth!!
This was amazing very nice work!
I never expected to see you here
Glad you think so!
Dang, first raasclark then H.O.D, some of my favorite UA-camrs
Legend
I love this series and I’m glad their doing the scorched earth pages now
Edit: after watching this I got slightly emotional, the John dekaha pages always were fascinating to me
Hey! Thanks for popping into my stream today, sorry it wasn’t working when you showed up 😬 but it’s cool knowing an awesome creator like you knows about me!
Hey, you watch these too? A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one
Youre both some of the best ark youtubers in my opinion!
yoooooooooo
Hi schwable I have a question I know u play on pc but how come you play on mobile
@@kishy6558 because she origianally played on mobile and then got bored of it and did pc, now shes doing mobile again because a lot of the og fans want it back
John is one of the best characters in ark as he goes from a untrustworthy outlaw to a respected and revered man and also rip John
I love how the sabertooth was actually jumping off of the rooftops while the buildings were falling.
The energy and effort everyone puts into these is amazing! I love the little details, like the buildings being destroyed and the, "Come get some!" from John. Props to all involved!
Thanks :)

Ned are you going to do scorched earth dossiers and Helena's and Rockwell's story on scorched earth
Why was it delayed you said it would come Friday
how long does it take to make one of these types of vids
@@Logan_is_very_cool_it takes a fair few months, and that depends on a few things, like volunteer count, building sets and such.
What about Raia's Story?
This was sooo cool to watch ...great job guys :) keep it up
Thanks Chubby! :)
LETS GOOOO cant wait to watch yet another masterpiece
Just awesome! John and Raia are one of the best stories 'hidden' in Ark (for those players who can't be bothered to read the explorer notes....). Full props to you and your voice actors/models for bringing the story to life.
This was amazing, you have truly found some great voice actors.
These stories are amazing, John Dahkeya is one of my favorite characters in Ark lore. I can’t wait for the Aberration ones!
I'm glad you like them. They take tons of work, and I'm glad to be able to work on these kinds of projects bringing Marc Soskin's story to life in this way -- albeit in a fan-made way :)

Fantastic work to everyone involved and thank you for the time and energy put into making this. 🙏🏻
And to think this was YEARS before the Arrival of Helena, Mei Yin, Rockwell and Nerva. Excellent work! 🤯
You have brought so much life to these explorer notes! I hope to see them continue. I know they take lots of time, energy, and money. All I will do what I can to support the continuation of these episodes. Thank you I love them
Dude these are phenomenal. Others have decent readthroughs, but yours, between the amazing voice acting and the intricate in game footage, knock them out of the park
This was great. The narration, the tone, and voice. Another great addition.
holy shit i feel so sorry for raia. shes waiting for someone to defeat the scorched earth tek cave. ): as many of us were hoping.
Dang! That last line was sick
damm... you really know how to tell a story. that ending had me crying for no reason
Can't wait for this!!
Hey Ned! Just wanted to say i love the series! Keep up the good work!
This was needless to say incredible! I love watching these so much and seeing the story of ark. You are amazing. Keep up the great work.
Wow its still in premier and i already love his accent
These always bring such great life to these characters. It’s amazing how you seem to find the perfect voice actors
Damn I hoped he didn’t die to the wyverns but he did 10/10 great character great voice actor I kinda got attached
Same but if santiago came back 3 times I hope both John and raia can as I loved both as they act like yin and yang in a way
This was absolutely incredible. Excellent voiceover, camera work, building and editing. These projects must take an obscene amount of time to coordinate, I can only imagine. Nicely done!
This was easily my favorite so far. Gorgeous job everyone. Scorched Earth has such a great story...looking forward to the other notes!
John and Raia are my Favourite characters I can't wait to see Raia's video! Thank you so much for doing this!
This will make a fine addition to my collection
Don’t forget new creatures means possibly… more dossiers to be covered!
So yeah… big boi worm and wyrm’s
General Grievous, you are shorter than I expected
@Vishwas gaming Anakin Skywalker, I thought someone with your reputation be a little... OLDER

Very nice, chapeau. words aren't enough for how much I enjoyed it, still have goosebumps thinking about it.
John Dahkeya???...More like John Marston. Who would've thought there would be a RDR/Ark crossover.
Few months in the making, it’s finally here. Cant wait for more ned!
I love learning the lore of this game, and the way you bring it to life is astounding. Your channel is amazing and I admire all the effort you and other's who worked on this put into it! Awesome job. :D

Great work and fantastic visuals. I hadn't appreciated Scorched Earth before your series nearly as much!
I love the bit where she turned to pat the Saber and it woke and got up. That was smooth.
You and your team should earn millions of Dollars for giving these videos to the ARK community
You did the impossible, you made ark lore fun and enjoyable and actually gave me a shock as an extra bonus there at the end. Your work is appreciated by many and I hope you continue.
I never cared for the Ark Lore but after I found this series I found myself very invested in the story! Can't wait to see the rest!
Oh man, I was waiting for SE! Amazing job as always! So excited for Raia tablets!
You and me both!
I just want to say thank you to everyone involved in making this happen. It brings so much more depth to game.
8:27 has become one of my favorite quotes from John.
Woow... just wow. Thx so much for all the efford you all put in this production !
I absolutely love these, extremely well done and well voiced. I hope you continue these for all expansions.
I just stumbled upon this series a couple days ago and when i saw that you were making more I was just ecstatic
