This game and Empires of the Undergrowth got me so interested in Ants I actually started keeping them. I currently have two small colonies, Messor Barbarus and Camponotus Singularis. Love my babies!
@@abcdefgcdefg5178 There is a channel called Ants Canada, he keeps all sorts of exotic ants, he also sells a line of supposedly beginner friendly ant habitats/tanks. I also remember him announcing/advertising some service where you can buy ants from your local area (foreign ants are bad since if they get loose they can wreck the ecosystem)
Hi Drae, you gave me great advice a few years ago about BMG I'll never forget: "Why don't you just buy the game and if it doesn't run on your pc, just get a refund." I'm surprised you didn't add "duMbA$s!!" but you're more refined than that. It was something so simple I hadn't even considered because in the real world I don't buy things and return them unless broken. You know how there's a culture of people who "rent" things, returning them after done using them one time like a furniture cleaner or even clothes? That's a part of why things are so messed up. But with Steam it's not that way at all and with you pointing out the obvious, I was able to play BMG after all. Also the other ant game too but that one I did refund.. I liked it but am too old to memorize the controls and key functions to really have much fun, and it was stressful as well in it's own way. Like all my other games, even GTA franchise, I enjoy sustained peace for longer periods of time than 5mins, not always under attack with timed "waves" (San Andreas is only exception, that was fun) or like it's Space Invaders, just waiting for the inevitable (death or game over) vs creating a huge empire to truly go out and conquer vast areas of land maybe including a whole continent or else a good sized island. Have said this before and will say it again in this painfully long post: Drae - I don't know how you pick all these games up so fast, but I sure think it's an incredible trait or skill to possess. Two thumbs up. I'll go ahead and buy this at Christmas, and if too complex, I'll just return for refund within an hr of gameplay. Easy peasy. Drae you tha man. I'll never regret subscribing to your channel. The squirrel suit you wore for the ads to shave your balls (and who even does that? Only the ads by the company were pushing that idea or agenda over and over on yt, hahaha and everyone was scammed into thinking that's what girls like today when in fact they're horrified by it LOL) almost did you in for me.. but I am also a forgiving person too. Mans gotta eat and food isn't free.
What a cool game I love it family relationships are weird but that is how it works Mom is head of the home colony and her queen daughters have their own bases it's funny
Probably would never happen but Drae mentioned something I've wondered about for years. Could a tornado pick up like a tree stump that has an anthill underneath it and take it you know... Miles away... And drop it on the ground undamaged in a new area? Imagine how weird that would be for the ants if they had consciousness. The big wind storm comes and suddenly your house is shaking but you're hiding protecting the eggs then it stops and you go outside and your essentially on a different continent basically lol.
Damnit Drae It's not often you play a game that I've friggn Pre ordered! I'm gonna have to postpone the videos you put out for this until I've played a bit.😢 In the meantime I'll just satiate my Drae desires with older videos. No lack of them right
I do wonder if these 2 would co-operate in like a extra optional mission for your collony to learn about a unusual collony of multiple diffrent ant species
This has to be the most political ant game I've seen. Literally performing antarian aid missions. "I will be the claw that strikes if I must," is such a good line, and from an ant game??
I think that the heads thing was a distance thing, like heads instead of feet, as ants have points on the end of their legs while having large heads. Just a guess thou.
No, it... it totally is. Drae even showed that, elbeit briefly, because he checked, walked forward a bit, checked again and the didplay was lower. He just never thinks about stuff like that and then just says whatever random thought he has at the time instead of verifying it (which is a really simple test)
Ick bugs. Dont like em. Even in video games i dont like em. Mainly cause they crawl all over me and bite me making me itchy. And its creepy when they crawl all over you
Why does the ant RTS have the best graphics I have seen in a while.
Drae on Monday? Am I dreaming?
With enough money many dreams can come true lol. Thank the sponser
Right I was like am I seeing this correctly?
Yeah he probably started the upload friday and youtube is just slow lol
We must be shared dreaming!
I was thinking the same thing
"Hopefully we won't fight anything bigger"
Meanwhile irl ants: Brothers and sisters join us as we need to take down the crab!
In my area, it's scorpions and army ants

That's so cool, my son wants an ant colony but I have no idea where to begin or what type of ants would be best, he is 11, any recommendations?
@@abcdefgcdefg5178yeah Google it.
Location and species should be a good start.
I'm sure your 11yo can help you

If I had a cent for every ant game drae played I would have a couple of cents.
this game is pretty well made def want more of this

At long last! Finally someone I watch picked this game up, I've been oh so curious about it. Thank you sir!
Thisnis such a beautiful game!!!! Thisnis one series i can't wait to see more of!!! Looks amazing!!! #Drae
Awesome content as always thanks for introducing us to different types of games.
the ants go marching one by one
Hoooraa hoooraaa
This is cute. Thank to you, VERY funny. Thank you Drae!

Drae: "EVEN BIGGER BEETLES"
Me: "Mushiking" [add enthusiastic voice]
This is taking care of us Americans who really need a positive distraction today. Mad love!
What a cool game I love it family relationships are weird but that is how it works Mom is head of the home colony and her queen daughters have their own bases it's funny
I literally said to myself after work "Damn it's Monday, Drae won't have a video." Opened UA-cam and saw this. 😂
Enter scientist meme:
Finally.... Mondraey
Ofc alot more!❤
I saw an ad for this game recently and the graphics/gameplay look stellar! Love your videos man, stoked to see you play through this game 😎
Your videos are not just content, they are true art. Thank you for your talented creativity!⛺️💚🌿

Empires of the Undergrowth + Empire of the Ants = Empire of the Underpants
A snail in the hand is worth 2 butterflies in the bush 😂
Your channel is a place where I can always relax and enjoy great humor. Keep up your hilarious videos!🏂🐶🖤
Awesome looking game!

🚨🚨🚨 DRAE DRAE DRAE 🚨🚨🚨
-Love the longer videos man!!! And Monday upload??? Whaaaatttt?!?!?
That is all 🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🍁
HI DREA love your videos so much think you are one of the first youtubers ive been subscribed to since i was a kid love from Norway
Awesome a MonDrae video! 😊😮😊
I would love to see more of this!
Butterflys bees and all in between wasps get energy from sugars which is highly valuable to ants.
i have been waiting for this game, i love ant games
I always hyped about this kind of game.
Brothers of the mine rejoice sing sing with me… I am an ant and I’m digging a hole
Am I reading this right!??!? Monday..... and drae....... a rare combo
The "heads" thing is to indicate how far away they are.... its distance lol
Drae, please please PLEASE do a series on this! My pc can't handle the graphics so I have to enjoy this vicariously 😂
Heads is a measure of distance for Ant! ie it would take 1000 ant heads to go to that tree.
Nice im so glad you played this game hope you finish the game
Damnit Drae
It's not often you play a game that I've friggn Pre ordered!
I'm gonna have to postpone the videos you put out for this until I've played a bit.😢
In the meantime I'll just satiate my Drae desires with older videos.
No lack of them right
Interesting. Actually looks legit and thats really nice given the flood of COMPLETE GARBAGE mobile ads featuring ants
I liked sim ant and sim farm back in the day😊😊😊😊.
This game is beautiful
Is it just me or is this basically Empire of the Undergrowth?
Edit: Nevermind I see it is different
I do wonder if these 2 would co-operate in like a extra optional mission for your collony to learn about a unusual collony of multiple diffrent ant species
I would think the heads meant how many ants have used that trail
This has to be the most political ant game I've seen. Literally performing antarian aid missions. "I will be the claw that strikes if I must," is such a good line, and from an ant game??
this was great but Drae on a Monday threw me off but glad I could watch it though
Bro says RTS and the first thing that pops in my head is return to station lmao welcome to amazon life 😂
I think that the heads thing was a distance thing, like heads instead of feet, as ants have points on the end of their legs while having large heads. Just a guess thou.
No, it... it totally is. Drae even showed that, elbeit briefly, because he checked, walked forward a bit, checked again and the didplay was lower. He just never thinks about stuff like that and then just says whatever random thought he has at the time instead of verifying it (which is a really simple test)
12:15 What is this? A giant fortress for ants?! 😗
Please tell me we’re still getting a video tomorrow.
Ant games reminds me of lemmings
"heads" are the ants measure of distance, i.e. 700 yards.
clearly you have not played smalland if you like this you will love that one
I really like this game
Been awhile since the last Monday upload
I think heads may be a unit of measurement, like feet or meters
Secand time when episode come out at monday,and i did think drae play this one
so i just saw this was coming to xbox soon, and was wondering how it played. id like to see more, as right now, im still thinking of getting it or not
Love your video drae
I literally just watched the trailer to this😂
Can we have a series on this?
If anyone wants a good read, Empire Of The Ants by Bernard Werber is a brilliant book
a monday upload?? W
Ant mmo would go hard
Tbh yeah being a single small worker of a entire player controlled hive and listening to your queen sounds very interesting
Dang the graphics is so good
*are
Sooooo.... ITs basically Simant but for this generation, ah, ok gotcha, just making sure we pay respect where respect is due.
❤
Monday uploud no way🥰
the heads thing is distance
First when there were no views
Im i only one noticing different drae voice on diff videos?
Ooh for a second I thought this was gonna be that one stupid ant game for mobile that looked absolutely nothing like the ad 😂
Hi drae
Let me guess.. 1080p 30 on consoles.
Monday video!
Dont hate the sponser unless you want him to stop making videos
Awesome Video
Actually Ants talk alot btw
Fis
First!!!
What
Ick bugs. Dont like em. Even in video games i dont like em. Mainly cause they crawl all over me and bite me making me itchy. And its creepy when they crawl all over you
Cute game, but not something i'm likely to watch.
It’s beautiful but what a terribly boring game
Day 32 of asking drae to play bridges and docks.
Day 32 of reporting for spam
@ its your 4 day
@monkeytoes1155And I can report you for spam too
Why? It is a shitgame and so many better out there.
Your videos are a true oasis for the mind and soul. Thank you for your creativity and inspiration!🦭👻🎣
Thank you for your originality and unique approach. Your videos are always surprising.🤸🦊🧉
