I recommend rendering in 1440p instead as YT doesnt compress 1440p especially for big youtubers like you (also a lot of people cant watch 4k due to their hardware and roll back to 1080/1440 resulting in worse quality than actual 1440p) just a tip though, continue making great content :)

@@Samifying usually when you upscale your videos Premiere tends to look more detailed due to the different scaling it uses compared to a lot of other apps like Vegas and results in less artifacting/blocking. I recommend exporting your video in 1080p using your main software (or whatever resolution you edit in), then import the edited video into Premiere and render to your liking (1440p/4k), making sure the bitrate is all the way to the max which I'm pretty sure is 50mbps, that way it looks better than if you rendered it with your main software. Also btw just a quick tip for YT, to view videos in best supported quality go on YT settings > playback and performance and make sure its selected in always prefer AV1 so most videos video you watch will have the upgraded AV1 encoder (instead of the standard vp9 encoder which has slightly less bitrate) and I noticed 99% of your videos have it. thank you for reading :)

My poor Kolo didn't get any recognition in this video. He exposed space way before april 2023, got mocked by the demonlist team and still hasn't received an apology
doggie is an amazing player and personality, it would be a bigger hit to me than space if he was to ever be outed for anything. keep in mind ive also been here ever since the start of space, since before him in 2019. sure space was a big hit to me and others, but doggie has everything space had and so much more.
The fact that Kolo exposed space like 6 months before paqoe is something that should be brought up more since nobody believed him and he got a ton of hate from it just because he wasn't a well known player.
Its nice to see a high-end documentary covering this situation. All other videos, while not bad at all, were clearly made in the direness of the situation. Having a series to reflect on the situation in hindsight is nice. Amazing series. This is incredible.
I feel so bad for Trick :(( He was trying so hard to make Firework the top 1 and grinded it so much but then seeing Space come along and sweep a more difficult level is so heart breaking to hear. It's a miracle Trick didn't lose motivation after that, and I'm so glad he didn't. GG Trick you the goat
Your video quality is absolutely unmatched and it is so so enjoyable to watch your storytelling. Thank you for giving us content like this! Specifically thanks for the last parts of this video. People can say I'm too invested in a video game and should get over it but it makes me physically angry seeing others be so accepting of a Space comeback despite the irreversable damage he's caused to the community and to the players that he took monumental recognition from. And the people that poke fun at those that feel uncomfortable with that, saying "it's just a game" and "you care too much" make me even more angry. It isn't wrong to care about something like this when it completely ruined over 2 years of the history of our incredible game and community.
That's mostly because people don't understand how it feels to work hard for an achievement only for it to be taken by a hacker, most members in the gd community cannot relate which is why they poke fun at the top players for caring
I'm not even that deep into gd but I legit teared up when GDCrisis said he does miss hanging out with space. Imagine finding out that your, probably, the closest friend was a cheater and a liar the entire time when you thought you were having genuine moments with him. I feel terribly sorry for him and personally NEVER want to experience such a thing ever!

The somber piano of Professor Layton backing the tragic stories of these beloved players. The striking chords of Never Cry, No Matter What perfectly putting the viewer in the perspective of the investigating Paqoe, as she unravels the disturbing mystery. Pretty much ever track sells the atmosphere perfectly (also bonus point for including Celeste OST, probably my favorite game of all time). Speaking of Paqoe, the way that the moderators managed to expose Space is honestly one of the most creative and out-of-the-box method's iv'e ever seen for a game. It really goes to show how much people care about the integrity of this game. Like a wise fox once said "We shouldn't let anyone tell us that we shouldn't care about a $4 mobile game, because it's the best $4 mile game out there." "Stolen Glory" is probably the single best part of this entire duology. It was absolutely gut-wrenching to hear about all the victims of this crime, all the stolen opportunities for so many people to be in such a prestigious spotlight. The worst of it was absolutely Trick, with a year of ramming his fist (finger) against the same level, over and over and over again, only to have all of it taken away mere days before it would have finally happened. As for my own opinion on Space, I don't think anything he can do will ever justify the damage he's caused, but I don't think that means he shouldn't get another chance. Maybe not now, but I think that someday he might be able to possibly earn some kind of respect back. Just maybe. I could go on like this for hours, but I think you get the point.

The way you portrayed this whole situation was fantastically well done, and as always the editing is top notch. I hope as a community, nothing like this happens ever again; the damage that was done by space is irreparable, and we cannot let this happen again.
I just love the brief break from going over the unraveling of the greatest cheating scandal in all of Geometry Dash to absolutely skewer yolomodeboom for no reason at all
As an editor I wanna thank you so much for the quality and the storytelling it’s a whole Nother level seriously it was the cherry on top and all the things all the hard work man that was such a good thing dead ass that was the most cleanest best montages I’ve ever seen ty so much that was ahh i can't ty(｡>﹏
i don't think i've ever felt worse for someone other than crisis, you can hear sadness in his voice in the last part of the second chance interviews. What a horrible set of events, I hope he's doing alright. :(
Amazing editing and creativity. I used to play this game a lot in 2013 and 2014 and it feels good to see so many passionate people around this. I can't stress enough how cool it feels to watch your videos. You're recreating the "funnygame" scenario here on UA-cam. Keep it up!
I really feel bad for Doggie, Crisis, and a lot of other players who where taken down in the list to a second place, bc SpaceUK felt like hacking and ruining other people real attempts was something funny.
Well, everyone has their own way of seeing what "fun" is and what is not. I know hundreds of people who have their best time trolling and mocking all over internet, its just natural) Dont feel bad for them, be happy that this dark age end and they will get their attention which they deserve)
This... is heart-touching... i never knew that space's hacking scandal would be this deep, how it would affect other peeps in the community and how space fucked em over
Great video! But you forgot to talk about Kolo. Back when SpaceUK didn't even verify Slaughterhouse, he found click delay inconsistency in his now deleted Slaughterhouse 92% video. He wrote about these inconsistencies to one of mods in Twitter, and surprisingly he got rejected. The reason was because his second exposal video was actually wrong. He wrongly assumed that Slaughterhouse 100% video was cut but didn't provide good proofs for it. Because of his second video being bad, the mod instantly assumed that video about click delay inconsistency was also bad. He even recorded his own exposal video before Paqoe, but he got clowned by Space's fans and nobody believed him.
These two videos genuinely amazes me, making a full on movie for a guy that cheated on a silly little cube game is insane. This is 100% one of my favorite videos OF ALL TIME, the editing, the songs, overall the entire video is just GENUINELY AMAZING!!!! Samifying, keep up with these ABSOLUTELY AMAZING VIDEOS!!! Your videos ALWAYS and i mean ALWAYS make myday so so so much better!!!
I don't know if you'll see this, but. You truthfully make my day better when i watch you. If you upload one video, then I've probably watched it more than 5 times, and no matter how bad my week was, you could make it 1000x better. You also motivated me to pick up an editing software and make something i was proud of. Although they weren't good, i thought they were. When i realized I wasn't that good, then i pushed myself to become better at it. Sometimes, when i'm bored, i go on your channel and just watch. I also have to say, that silent clubstep video felt ilegal to watch. It was like a movie for free. It just feels wrong watching something such good story telling on a youtube video thats about a 5 dollar cube game.if my freind doesnt understand why i spendt 2000 hours on gd then i would show them your youtube channel. You can show how great the community is. Thank you
I absolutely LOVE this style of editing. From teh heaven like editing to the colour palette, you’re genuinely unmatched in terms of documenting GD. When the ski I did toilet kids start playing good games (GD) I hope they see this video and your channel to see how passionate the community is.
I have never heard the SpaceUK situation being told that is as calm or even calmer than this one. I am very glad to watch without the feeling of regret, and I am glad that the players who legitimately worked hard for their achievements got the attention they deserved.
I love the way this second part is approached, instead of keep giving space more and more attention, you let the people affected talk, give their opinions and give them a fraction of the spotlight they deserved. Great video Sami, love all of them
One thing I wish this video included was how much this meant to the average person in the community. Space hacking affected me for a few days with it being all I could think of, and I was barely a fan of him. Some of my friends were obsessed with this man, him being their idols, looking up to Space for years. He made everyone treat him like a god for his ego, and he was obsessed with the attention. This would never be a victimless crime, even if people like Crisis or Doggie didn't exist.
I do agree. I looked up to Space, he was one of only two reasons I even tried to get better at this game, was to just try and get on his level, and...yeah. It definitely affected me.
@@TheGrimRaper. what i meant to say was inspiration. alot of people didnt look up to him for life but looked were inspired with how "good" he was and played the game with that in mind.
Seriously, what an insane series of videos? The quality is just impeccable. I am so impressed. Awesome delivery of emotions through the music, and such smooth animations….
What a great documentary. I've played GD over the years and haven't really kept up to date with the whole extreme demon scene, but this is really well put together and super professional.
Couldn't aggree more, I don't even play GD, the only levels I have ever beaten are the basic levels 1 and 2, in my 10h play time while in my school breaks... Still I consider throwing money in his face beacause of these masterpieces.
25:16 LOLOLOL WE MADE IT :DDD , also I noticed that gigachad pop up when he mentioned my slaughterhause comp :D But in all seriousness you make by far the highest quality gd commentary videos rn, this is like lemmino level production for a 4$ game, if you branched out from gd you would hit 1 mil subs fast trust me
Editing is getting better and better. Probably not on purpose, but I recognize songs from what Lemmino uses, and def get the feeling but with a twist with your content which is so GOOD. Love watching quality GD content, and again, truly respect the editing. Love it, amazing video! :D Also the ending gave me chills LOL
Perfect video, only one thing you should have mentioned that Paqoe wasnt the first person who suspected Space, Kolo right after he hacked verified Slaughterhouse knew that something is not right, Kolo also wrote the demon list team but they didn't care at all and he was a small youtuber so who cares (they thought), but he was the real first person who exposed SpaceUK
I just watched the previous part yesterday and was so frustrated that the video ended 😂 excited to see this one. Your editing and storytelling is unmatched!! Great work
Oh my god, I could watch these kind of videos all day long, the editing is so good and immersive, also these OSTs/songs choices are on point, awesome job man!
I must also admit that the colors of your films, brightness, contrast and all this are a miracle 10/10. The transitions between chapters are magic, everything is beautifully animated, everything is in great colors. I never thought I would say that I have my own comfort UA-camr. Keep Up
I think the watermark thing had to be a completely entire chapter, like bro that was one of the most relevant things during this entire scandal. Anyway as always your videos are top quality and I enjoy them a lot.
This is a very well made video! I don't really know anything about the geometry dash community, but I played it a lot back in 2014. You presented the information very well and gave an outsider like me a complete picture of the situation. I wish there were more UA-camrs like you.
This was seriously incredible! I'm surprised that you don't have 100k subscribers yet but you're pretty close to it. Your videos are always so well made and I love the style and editing. It's a shame about what Space did though. It's always the people you never expect to hurt you the most... It was really sad to hear about how people got hurt by him. Like missing being able to vc like they used to. It's the little things that are the worst. I wish them the best in moving past this.
What a great video, Sami. Love hearing the top players speak from the heart about this. It’s surreal to see how impactful this was for everyone, it just keeps getting more and more compelling and sad. 😢
Sami everything about this is phenomenal, I like how you incorporated emotion into the story, it made it feel more impactful, plus the editing is above standards as usual. As always this was a great video :)
Okay, is it just me or the editing and work put in the video is beyond everything else? I mean seriously it is a literal masterpiece. I don't really know if its the editing style that really suits me but I feel like I'll be coming back here from time to time to experience it again.
don't imagine how hurting it can be for Zoink, Doggie, Trick etc to dont be on top 1 because of a cheater, this is truly sad and absurd, i think if i was them i just would rage a lot, and maybe even leave the game, thanks to god that they didn't, and hopefully we won't get lied again.
Thank you for this serie. It genuinely made me sad. I'm not an old player in this community (joined it last year) but I love it a lot. Space always was to me "the top player" and this situation really saddens me. The last things Crisis said were truly heartbreaking. And almost made me cry. Thank you, your videos are awesome. I really like your narration and your editing style. Good luck and keep up
I don’t even play this game (I did, as a time killer but never actually beat any levels lol) and I got into the story so much by this abomb that this community had to face.. It actually touch me… I was furios, disappointed, sad, a lot of emotions kicked in. What a great way to tell a story and edit. Mad respect for all of you that put the hours on a game that you love so much. Sorry for bad English
I simply can't put into words how incredible the quality is here. I'm so glad part 1 of this series was recommended to me by the algorithm. I was one of those mobile GD players back in 2015 or so. I really only played the official levels, and never got farther than Xstep iirc, (I know I know, but all my other time was spent on Clash of Clans or Minecraft, and I didn't know any GD friends to push me farther) but I love music and I love video games. GD has always been one of my favorite games, even if I forgot about it for a while >_
This video is just perfect and incredible! I'm just mind blown how good this video is, the editing, story, and everything. Why this video doesn't even have 1m+ views??? You're very underated and huge congrats on reaching 100k subs! 🎉✨
Easily one of the best UA-cam documentaries I’ve watched in a long time. Very Lemino, very Defunctland. Loved every minute of it. Well done, you’ve earned a sub sir 🗿
Your work at editing this are incredible, amazing videos.. And i want a request video like "The Story Of Zoink" if you want, if you don't its okay. Love your videos man❤
Crisis saying that he would forgive him and that he misses hanging with SpaceUK always tears my heart appart. I hope everyone has a friend like Crisis in their lives.
Sami, you Are my inspiration in editing. I have never, even in the mainstream UA-cam seen better quality of videos. I know this must take A LOT of time, so i wanted to Tell you that we appreciate you Sam ❤
Honestly now that I am aware of his behavior throughout his hacking spree I'm more leaning towards not letting him come back to the community, I really thought he was regretful to the point where he just buried his guilt and kept going, but now it looks to me like he was just toying with everyone, that he just wanted to feel so much superior to others, honestly I can't understand how you can have a friend like him who just shows off and pokes fun at you for not being as good as him, especially considering he hacked everything, I feel terrible for Crisis Anyway with that being said, this video and the previous one were amazing as per usual, keep it up :)
Absolutely fantastically well made video series. Just as the GD community keeps beating harder levels, you keep uploading better and better documentaries! Cheers :D
Wow.. You know its a good day when sami premieres. What a legend! If your seeing this i just wanna say that you are the best storyteller i have ever heard and your editing is through the ROOF!! Keep doing amazing things! :))
Hey Sami, I really like this new direction you’re going in that allows you to keep a more consistent upload schedule, I have a suggestion too though. How would you feel about putting the parts of these videos together and releasing an “uncut” version somewhere after all parts have been released? One thing I really love about your long form content is that I could put it on in the background as I got stuff done around the house and such. I don’t think I would be the only person that enjoyed this about them. Anyway, really love your stuff, thanks for making such amazing content :3
@@Samifying maybe another channel like VOD channels for streamers where the big content is uploaded for people who want it ? I think it would look better than having the parts and the final version on the same channel. The other option would be linking the full video in the description and uploading it hidden perhaps Just giving ideas
Yet another masterpiece from you Sami. I love SummoningSalt videos and I love GD, and you're the combination of those with even smoother editing. Just perfection
dude i am actually so glad we have a video essayist in the gd community and one of the best at that your editing is so impactful and your videos are so accessible to everyone, whether you are a gd veteran or have never touched the game in your life

I hope as a community, nothing like this happens ever again; the damage that was done by space is irreparable, and we cannot let this happen again.
its the guy from the good music!!!!!!!!!
I just love the brief break from going over the unraveling of the greatest cheating scandal in all of Geometry Dash to absolutely skewer yolomodeboom for no reason at all
As an editor I wanna thank you so much for the quality and the storytelling it’s a whole Nother level seriously it was the cherry on top and all the things all the hard work man that was such a good thing dead ass that was the most cleanest best montages I’ve ever seen ty so much that was ahh i can't ty(｡>﹏
Thank you so much koshroo!!!
Wow
The editing in both videos is crazy and the story telling mixed with that is perfection
i don't think i've ever felt worse for someone other than crisis, you can hear sadness in his voice in the last part of the second chance interviews. What a horrible set of events, I hope he's doing alright. :(
Congrats on winning the Winter campaign, just pure respect 🔥
Amazing editing and creativity.
I used to play this game a lot in 2013 and 2014 and it feels good to see so many passionate people around this.
I can't stress enough how cool it feels to watch your videos.
You're recreating the "funnygame" scenario here on UA-cam.
Keep it up!
HUGE FRAUD ⁉
ZYLENOX?
IS THAT THE MINECRAFT SPEEDRUN WORLD RECORD HOLDER ZYLENOX
chester
MASSIVE FRAUD ⁉️🗣
i kid you not. this guy just straight up turned himself into a cheater, the funniest shit i’ve ever seen
I really feel bad for Doggie, Crisis, and a lot of other players who where taken down in the list to a second place, bc SpaceUK felt like hacking and ruining other people real attempts was something funny.
😂😂😂😂😂

Well, everyone has their own way of seeing what "fun" is and what is not. I know hundreds of people who have their best time trolling and mocking all over internet, its just natural)
Dont feel bad for them, be happy that this dark age end and they will get their attention which they deserve)
Spaceuk therapy session when?
NO ONE in this world tell stories like you... An absolute legend❤
This goddamn editing is so perfect like WHATT??? I KEEP GETTING DISTRACTED OVER THE FLYING COKE AND SHARK
This... is heart-touching... i never knew that space's hacking scandal would be this deep, how it would affect other peeps in the community and how space fucked em over
Great video! But you forgot to talk about Kolo. Back when SpaceUK didn't even verify Slaughterhouse, he found click delay inconsistency in his now deleted Slaughterhouse 92% video. He wrote about these inconsistencies to one of mods in Twitter, and surprisingly he got rejected. The reason was because his second exposal video was actually wrong. He wrongly assumed that Slaughterhouse 100% video was cut but didn't provide good proofs for it. Because of his second video being bad, the mod instantly assumed that video about click delay inconsistency was also bad. He even recorded his own exposal video before Paqoe, but he got clowned by Space's fans and nobody believed him.
These two videos genuinely amazes me, making a full on movie for a guy that cheated on a silly little cube game is insane. This is 100% one of my favorite videos OF ALL TIME, the editing, the songs, overall the entire video is just GENUINELY AMAZING!!!!
Samifying, keep up with these ABSOLUTELY AMAZING VIDEOS!!!
Your videos ALWAYS and i mean ALWAYS make myday so so so much better!!!
GG on 100k! I love your videos bro, so detailed and well edited.
Such a unique and interesting editing style. Again going above and beyond. You deserve that rest lmao 😂
You’re joking right? This is lemmino 2.0 for geometry dash lmao
@@hata6290 it’s still pretty cool either way
@@hata6290it does, and i love it. Lemmino is also my favorite documentary youtuber
I don't know if you'll see this, but. You truthfully make my day better when i watch you. If you upload one video, then I've probably watched it more than 5 times, and no matter how bad my week was, you could make it 1000x better.
You also motivated me to pick up an editing software and make something i was proud of. Although they weren't good, i thought they were.
When i realized I wasn't that good, then i pushed myself to become better at it.
Sometimes, when i'm bored, i go on your channel and just watch. I also have to say, that silent clubstep video felt ilegal to watch. It was like a movie for free. It just feels wrong watching something such good story telling on a youtube video thats about a 5 dollar cube game.if my freind doesnt understand why i spendt 2000 hours on gd then i would show them your youtube channel. You can show how great the community is. Thank you
I absolutely LOVE this style of editing. From teh heaven like editing to the colour palette, you’re genuinely unmatched in terms of documenting GD. When the ski I did toilet kids start playing good games (GD) I hope they see this video and your channel to see how passionate the community is.
I have never heard the SpaceUK situation being told that is as calm or even calmer than this one. I am very glad to watch without the feeling of regret, and I am glad that the players who legitimately worked hard for their achievements got the attention they deserved.
I love the way this second part is approached, instead of keep giving space more and more attention, you let the people affected talk, give their opinions and give them a fraction of the spotlight they deserved. Great video Sami, love all of them
cant wait for the trackmania vid… amazing job!
broo your video are soooo satisfying ..
from voice over, to picking music and animations are so smooth keep it up for real
One thing I wish this video included was how much this meant to the average person in the community. Space hacking affected me for a few days with it being all I could think of, and I was barely a fan of him. Some of my friends were obsessed with this man, him being their idols, looking up to Space for years. He made everyone treat him like a god for his ego, and he was obsessed with the attention. This would never be a victimless crime, even if people like Crisis or Doggie didn't exist.
w
I do agree. I looked up to Space, he was one of only two reasons I even tried to get better at this game, was to just try and get on his level, and...yeah. It definitely affected me.
You looked up to a person who spends too much time on a game....You need to find some better rolemodels lmao.
@@TheGrimRaper. I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna take anything from a guy with the username "thegrimraper4619"
@@TheGrimRaper. what i meant to say was inspiration. alot of people didnt look up to him for life but looked were inspired with how "good" he was and played the game with that in mind.
I hope space sees this and realises the impact he's had on other top players
Seriously, what an insane series of videos? The quality is just impeccable. I am so impressed. Awesome delivery of emotions through the music, and such smooth animations….
What a great documentary. I've played GD over the years and haven't really kept up to date with the whole extreme demon scene, but this is really well put together and super professional.
This guys editing skills is on god tier, you made me subscribe bro
Couldn't aggree more, I don't even play GD, the only levels I have ever beaten are the basic levels 1 and 2, in my 10h play time while in my school breaks... Still I consider throwing money in his face beacause of these masterpieces.
Exactly The Same
unironically making me tear considering how much this mustve affected the community and i barely play the game myself, i just enjoy hard completions
Congrats on 100k ❤ Your the greatest video editor and storyteller! Very much deserved 🎉❤
Congrts on 100k sam , ive been watching you for over 2 years , thanks for the comemorable memories!
25:16 LOLOLOL WE MADE IT :DDD , also I noticed that gigachad pop up when he mentioned my slaughterhause comp :D
But in all seriousness you make by far the highest quality gd commentary videos rn, this is like lemmino level production for a 4$ game, if you branched out from gd you would hit 1 mil subs fast trust me
TYSM!! ❤
Grats on beating slaughterhouse! I'm glad you didn't take us joking around the wrong way!! lmfao
LEGEND
Amazing ✌️
Editing is getting better and better. Probably not on purpose, but I recognize songs from what Lemmino uses, and def get the feeling but with a twist with your content which is so GOOD. Love watching quality GD content, and again, truly respect the editing. Love it, amazing video! :D
Also the ending gave me chills LOL
cant wait for a nother blast vid,just take it easy,
gl!
no way! hi xd
Absolutely amazing editing and storytelling. Just got introduced to your channel and couldn't be more bewildered than I already am.
Perfect video, only one thing you should have mentioned that Paqoe wasnt the first person who suspected Space, Kolo right after he hacked verified Slaughterhouse knew that something is not right, Kolo also wrote the demon list team but they didn't care at all and he was a small youtuber so who cares (they thought), but he was the real first person who exposed SpaceUK
amazing video sami!! i love the effort you put into these keep it up man
I just watched the previous part yesterday and was so frustrated that the video ended 😂 excited to see this one. Your editing and storytelling is unmatched!! Great work
2022 awards were 30% skill 70% popularity. Zoink should have won, not space, and not doggie.
Oh my god, I could watch these kind of videos all day long, the editing is so good and immersive, also these OSTs/songs choices are on point, awesome job man!
Man I feel so bad for all of these people, hopefully they can all achieve their goals in the end
I must also admit that the colors of your films, brightness, contrast and all this are a miracle 10/10. The transitions between chapters are magic, everything is beautifully animated, everything is in great colors. I never thought I would say that I have my own comfort UA-camr. Keep Up
I love your documentaries and now you are playing trackmania! GG! Also do you plan on ever making a trackmania documentary
I don’t even play geometry dash but this editing and storytelling makes it super entertaining. Thanks for the feast
I think the watermark thing had to be a completely entire chapter, like bro that was one of the most relevant things during this entire scandal. Anyway as always your videos are top quality and I enjoy them a lot.
I love how much effort you put in. You really care about the game and your videos! Awesome dude
Your videos really are a blessing to the gd community, the writing and visual representation is just so detailed and pleasing.
I love this so much man
ur editing and story telling is actually unreal. i aint even seen this video yet i just know its bouta be good
No way you referenced Lit Fuse by KrmaL in the ending like that...
That's actually genius
I love Lit Fuse tbh
This is a very well made video! I don't really know anything about the geometry dash community, but I played it a lot back in 2014. You presented the information very well and gave an outsider like me a complete picture of the situation. I wish there were more UA-camrs like you.
This was seriously incredible! I'm surprised that you don't have 100k subscribers yet but you're pretty close to it. Your videos are always so well made and I love the style and editing. It's a shame about what Space did though. It's always the people you never expect to hurt you the most... It was really sad to hear about how people got hurt by him. Like missing being able to vc like they used to. It's the little things that are the worst. I wish them the best in moving past this.
What a great video, Sami.
Love hearing the top players speak from the heart about this.
It’s surreal to see how impactful this was for everyone, it just keeps getting more and more compelling and sad. 😢
Sami everything about this is phenomenal, I like how you incorporated emotion into the story, it made it feel more impactful, plus the editing is above standards as usual. As always this was a great video :)
THANK YOU FOR THE SUPPORT JUSTIAN ❤
Genuinely amazing content that helps contextualize the whole situation really well. Editing on point!
Okay, is it just me or the editing and work put in the video is beyond everything else? I mean seriously it is a literal masterpiece. I don't really know if its the editing style that really suits me but I feel like I'll be coming back here from time to time to experience it again.
don't imagine how hurting it can be for Zoink, Doggie, Trick etc to dont be on top 1 because of a cheater, this is truly sad and absurd, i think if i was them i just would rage a lot, and maybe even leave the game, thanks to god that they didn't, and hopefully we won't get lied again.
Your editing and storytelling is phenomenal. One of the best UA-camrs in general I have ever seen. Thanks for being a part of this community
i love the way you edit your videos, i've never felt so deeply interested in geo dash before now haha. great job!
Thank you for this serie. It genuinely made me sad. I'm not an old player in this community (joined it last year) but I love it a lot. Space always was to me "the top player" and this situation really saddens me.
The last things Crisis said were truly heartbreaking. And almost made me cry.
Thank you, your videos are awesome. I really like your narration and your editing style. Good luck and keep up
the fact that he released part 2 of the spaceuk situation 7 days after the first video just shows that he's working hard
well done man
I don’t even play this game (I did, as a time killer but never actually beat any levels lol) and I got into the story so much by this abomb that this community had to face.. It actually touch me… I was furios, disappointed, sad, a lot of emotions kicked in.
What a great way to tell a story and edit. Mad respect for all of you that put the hours on a game that you love so much.
Sorry for bad English
I simply can't put into words how incredible the quality is here.
I'm so glad part 1 of this series was recommended to me by the algorithm. I was one of those mobile GD players back in 2015 or so. I really only played the official levels, and never got farther than Xstep iirc, (I know I know, but all my other time was spent on Clash of Clans or Minecraft, and I didn't know any GD friends to push me farther) but I love music and I love video games. GD has always been one of my favorite games, even if I forgot about it for a while >_
Congrats on 100K bro, you deserve it big time.
Im still waiting for this dude to upload something
Wooo! Congrats on 100k Samifying!
This video is just perfect and incredible! I'm just mind blown how good this video is, the editing, story, and everything.
Why this video doesn't even have 1m+ views???
You're very underated and huge congrats on reaching 100k subs! 🎉✨
Easily one of the best UA-cam documentaries I’ve watched in a long time. Very Lemino, very Defunctland. Loved every minute of it. Well done, you’ve earned a sub sir 🗿
Like I said, Sami's video editing and documetary always gives me so much goosebumps in a good way
Your work at editing this are incredible, amazing videos..
And i want a request video like "The Story Of Zoink" if you want, if you don't its okay. Love your videos man❤
Congratulations on 100k subs,
And also fantastic editing and story telling
Crisis saying that he would forgive him and that he misses hanging with SpaceUK always tears my heart appart.
I hope everyone has a friend like Crisis in their lives.
Sami, you Are my inspiration in editing. I have never, even in the mainstream UA-cam seen better quality of videos. I know this must take A LOT of time, so i wanted to Tell you that we appreciate you Sam ❤
This has to be the most entertaining GD commentary I've watched so far, if not then it's another video of yours. You're just too good at this.
Gg on the trackmania W!
Honestly now that I am aware of his behavior throughout his hacking spree I'm more leaning towards not letting him come back to the community, I really thought he was regretful to the point where he just buried his guilt and kept going, but now it looks to me like he was just toying with everyone, that he just wanted to feel so much superior to others, honestly I can't understand how you can have a friend like him who just shows off and pokes fun at you for not being as good as him, especially considering he hacked everything, I feel terrible for Crisis
Anyway with that being said, this video and the previous one were amazing as per usual, keep it up :)
Spaceuk has a bad childhood (real)
Absolutely fantastically well made video series. Just as the GD community keeps beating harder levels, you keep uploading better and better documentaries! Cheers :D
Always completely blown away by the editing, storytelling and overall quality of you work. Absolutely incredible
Absolutely loving your content! Your editing and storytelling and scripting is SO GOOD
Imagine "beating" the 75 hardest rated levels in the game and lost it all by 64 pixels
Fantastic editing and storytelling, this guy needs a geometry oscar
This was such a great way on covering this topic. Well done on the amazing video!!!
I cant wait to watch this, Your the BEST creator by FAR. I love this content please keep making more!
Wow.. You know its a good day when sami premieres. What a legend!
If your seeing this i just wanna say that you are the best storyteller i have ever heard and your editing is through the ROOF!! Keep doing amazing things! :))
Hey Sami, I really like this new direction you’re going in that allows you to keep a more consistent upload schedule, I have a suggestion too though.
How would you feel about putting the parts of these videos together and releasing an “uncut” version somewhere after all parts have been released? One thing I really love about your long form content is that I could put it on in the background as I got stuff done around the house and such. I don’t think I would be the only person that enjoyed this about them. Anyway, really love your stuff, thanks for making such amazing content :3
one day I might do that!
@@Samifying maybe another channel like VOD channels for streamers where the big content is uploaded for people who want it ? I think it would look better than having the parts and the final version on the same channel.
The other option would be linking the full video in the description and uploading it hidden perhaps
Just giving ideas
@@Samifying maybe bloopers on a second channel would be a good idea, I know I would watch that.
Yet another masterpiece from you Sami. I love SummoningSalt videos and I love GD, and you're the combination of those with even smoother editing. Just perfection
dude i am actually so glad we have a video essayist in the gd community and one of the best at that
your editing is so impactful and your videos are so accessible to everyone, whether you are a gd veteran or have never touched the game in your life
The most well-produced geometry dash video ever made. Congrats Sami
