I Have A Question. Will Ever Pop Cap Realise That Good Game Make Them Mountain Worth Of More Money Then The Trash That They Pump Out. If They Did Realise It Then What They Do? Updating GW2 Again Or Make GW3?
This game just hits different I’m a teen and still play this. I mean have you ever seen a shooter with around 120 different unique characters? Or spawn immediately into a war zone? There’s just so much to do in this 30gb game. It’s amazing.
@@royaljadeee I agree. I didn't play the matches much except one of the rounds-based ones which I loved, but I played the theme park area a ton, where you'd just go around killing randoms. I spent a LOT of hours doing that, and it was a blast. I loved the winter/holiday decorations they had up for that time of year, and I truly had a blast just doing that.
This game will always remind me of tf2 first because of the name, the community, the goofy style, the fun time you will have on either games, the lack of updates, and being able to infinitely replay both games I love both of these games but if tf2 ever dies I think that may be the time that gw2 dies or vice versa but when they do die they will always be remembered.
I honestly hate that Torchwood and Hover Goat were made purchasable, as it completely undermines the value of the Trials of Gnomus. Although it's very difficult, I think that's what makes the Trials enjoyable. Edit: Since the Town Hall events happen less frequently now, I do admit that having the characters be purchasable is a good thing.
@@roxinim6479the easiest and most simple way to do it is to go to the post box in the backyard (you spawn next to it every time you load up the game), you can then find what you are looking for and buy it. However it’s soo much more rewarding to unlock them
I can’t even count how many times I repeated that one memory puzzle. It took me a long while, but when I did it finally, I felt so satisfied with myself. It was nice getting rewarded with something for going out of your way to get it. I stopped playing PVZ GW 2 a while ago, so I’m sad that they’re purchasable now.
@@xArt_16 trial of doom was by far the hardest for me, the memory one was easy because my brother just took a picture and told me 😂. Yea it was a cheap way of doing it but if I could cheese it I would
The game is just fun. It doesn’t have a predatory progression system, it doesn’t have a forced in ranked mode or eSport, plenty of content for both PvP and PvE, all for one price. It feels like a game that wants you to hop in and have fun, which is reflected in how nice the community is to eachother.
I love this Game because 1. I used to play GW1 and GW2 a lot when I was young and 2. Its pretty much the only "competitive Shooter" which I can play when I just want to have fun and relax without getting upset or feeling any urge to tryhard. Usually when you play other competitive Shooters like COD, R6 Siege or Overwatch for example, you easily get upset at something or feel like you need to get better at it as fast as possible and want to sweat even more, learn all tactics, loadouts, Heroes and whatever else. Its often not really something you can actually lay back and relax with if you get what I mean. GW2 Is totally different for me personally and a very fun and chill experience, no matter how old you are. It amazes me that its still has such a big Community that keeps the Game alive so even after all these Years you can find full Lobbies and enjoy this piece of Videogame Art.
@@darknessinc.Inc830 In bfn they could have reworked varients to be more different as well by having quality over quantity. Maybe have 2, or even 1 varient of each character on launch and slowly start adding more. Things like ice cactus, electric cactus ect were so boring and pointless. Toxic pea could have bouncing projectiles as an example, and fire pea could leave molten fire on the ground that hurts those that step on it.
@@jakepeng9962also general cosmetic things for all the variants wouldve been cool, from more details to the naming scheme for the elemental variants being more creative in general. The concepts of variants were never bad especially gameplay wise, but in its other aspects popcap needed to put in the effort to make it shine yet they opted for just throwing it all away instead.
@@jakepeng9962 I have honestly always really liked the idea of ice variants, but i feel like they have always been really underwhelming, I agree that fire variants and toxic where too similiar, but i quite miss all the sunflowers alternatives and chompers, those where quite different from the rest. It's quite obvious they put no effort is PvZBFN. I am quite deluded in today's gaming market.
for me i was allowed violent games and didnt exactly have any attachment to PVZ i think ironically the gunplay is genuinely very enjoyable, no matter what you actually enjoyed playing, all of the classes were enjoyable, even the cactus which plays more like a sniper i think the chomper makes it accessible to people who suck at the game too, i know i had a lot of fun with the chomper also the variants of the plants, i remember getting the plasma pea shooter and it made the game feel fresh etc i have a lot of good memories playing garden warfare with my friends and might try and get some of my friends to play it again sometime
This game is also very satisfying whilst doing any damage, (I haven’t played in a while so the names could be wrong lol) Silencer pea and just beaming people in the head and seeing the numbers pop up with the headshot sound, hitting along range rocket as the jump soldier, being a dirty chemist/Marine Biologist just dropping people and seeing those big numbers pop up. It just felt good and clean to play, and while sometimes you get hit by something that obviously didn’t hit you, that goes both ways so it never felt “bad” to me. Just felt like very forgiving hit boxes. The game allows any play style to be viable (imo), like there are solid options for everyone. And with the ability mods or upgrades (once again, I forget the actual name) it adds even more variety to the characters.
My dad plays 2 games, this and Fortnite on his X-Box. He used to play the first game exclusively but moved on to these two. He has been at the max level for as long as I remember him playing. His account is pretty cracked, and he has thousands of hours. He exclusively plays the first 50-kill game and cranks out multiple of them. He is always the highest rank in his lobby. I asked him this same question a while ago, "Why do people still play it." he said, "Because it's a great game." I love my dad, lol. (BTW, I'm pretty sure he never spent any of his coins, I wonder how many he has by now, lol)
At first, I was wondering if this was my son’s secondary UA-cam account. Then I read “never spends coins” and knew that you weren’t talking about me. 😂
The game went on a huge sale recently and 4 of my friends got it and now we've been playing a game I've been playing since release for years. Feels great.
Its like TF2 but with plants and zombies. I remember getting it on my birthday cause it came out just before it. I love jt and still play it sometimes, While i admittedly did buy the larty characters, i earned Z7 imp (by preordering it) and torchwood and hovergoat. I even recorded jt, you guessed it, on a physical cam corder, on a tripod, pointing at the TV. I loved that game so much and the fact that every match has a bunch of no rank plates (fresh installs) is amazing
i was a game tester at the time for this game! glad to see that people enjoyed it... i most certainly did... was my favorite game to work on... when we had full rooms to test the servers and such.. the game was most enjoyable... super brainz really broken at the time
The main reason I liked it was because all of the heroes had variants with their own special abilities , something very rarely seen in games. I could have a mech sword fight against a teleporting unicorn on a moon base and never get bored.
I remember when the first game came out I was so confused and turned off by the fact it was a shooter. But its actually so much fun and makes perfect sense to make a shooter PvZ game lmao.
Shout out to my agent pea players, the class system was one of the reasons I kept playing GW2 instead of B4N, like I totally forgot some of these characters existed like the rock pea, the vampire flower and the hot rod chomper.
Its probably the lack of paywalls to interesting content that keeps it going, as well as the gameplay. So many awesome cosmetics, so many cool variants, all without needing to spend money on them, and you can get it all at a fast pace too. The gunplay feels good, the gamemodes are wonderful, and the game is slow enough you can play at a decent skill level without needing to learn advanced mechanics to be good at the game. The visuals look great, and visuals are what convince me to buy a game as well as its gameplay.
It’s because the game is still genuinely better than most similar style games and it executes the concepts very well. It just needs to be relaunched or something.
I would love that, so it wouldn't take a ton of work by the team... Just do a remaster of sorts, maybe add in a map or two, and re-release it, bring in a lot of money while bringing the community back together, and then work on GW3 with that money.
Good video brother! I actually was one of the people who did not know this game even exists. I thought there is only GW1 and BfN. Also I just saw GW2 is currently on sale so I might as well give it a shot
When I first got this game for Christmas back when I was like 8 years old I got so excited, especially because I loved playing the original plants vs zombies.
the variants definitely needed their own section here, separate from replayability. getting to unlock new variants that play differently and leveling them up was part of what added to the game's replay value immensely, with a very long line of them, allowing players to play almost every class with a variant that suits their playstyle. and then bfn came out and ditched them entirely, which just destroyed so much interest in the game. though the grinding went on a bit too long, tbh.
I remember playing Garden Warfare 1 on day one, and it was a magical experience. It was a nice change of pace from the COD and Battlefield games I typically played, and it truly was just a blast of a game. I didn't get much into GW2, but did play a lot of BFN. Not the matches, but I played in the theme park area where you could just go around killing randoms, and it was a ton of fun. I really wish they'd make a GW3, with a theme park style thing like they did in BFN. I am going to give GW2 a try, because I loved GW1 so much. It is sad though that these games are probably over with... I have spent tons of hours in them overall. I played as the cactus in GW1, and I don't think I've had that much fun in any other game. The music itself is so iconic, and brings back so many memories... I really wish they'd realize that people loved the GW style games, and if they spent the money making another good one, people would play it, and more so than the old ones, now that social media is much of a bigger thing, and UA-camrs would be showing it. I know they won't take the risk though, so I am sad.
The first Garden Warfare was my first online multiplayer shooter game. I even remember waking up earlier to play a single round before going to school. Gotta give a chance to the second game
i still can't understand why are they just don't stop supporting Plants versus Zombies neighborville and come back to Garden Warfare 2 and start updating it again
i played it a long time ago then i quit and i started playing again because of nostalgia and i now want to master each and every character before leaving the game again and all their styles too
Man the nostalgia that i have for this game is crazy, even if i played this game when i was like 8 lol. I used to play it with my cousin all the time, and we would spend actual hours playing every day that we could. We spent so much time finding out every possible easter egg and the gnomes, the gnomes were easily the most fun we had in the game. We were HYPED when we found out about the gnome cave area (i forgot the name) and the gnomus trials. And the whome hub world (whos name i also forgot) was so much fun to just run around and discovers things. The missions were the best part of the hub world for me, the storylines, new maps, objectives and other stuff.
I am genuinely surprised that it is still going with a dedicated player base. I still remember watching tons of videos of this game years ago and begged my parents to buy me it
Too this day I think evolve was ahead of it’s time. That game, in this gaming age would have been one of the biggest free to play games out there, would be as huge as dead by daylight
Stopped playing cause overwatch is the greatest hero shooter (superior balancing of classes imo). But wow I'm surprised how popular this is, truly is a fun experience and glad the community is thriving
This is a great video, more than half of these reasons are why I have pretty consistently played the game. Another great point is the road to max rank grind keeping people on and on the grind! (like me)
I got the game on release date and played it for 250 hours. A month ago I was thinking about it and decided to reinstall it and see if it was still active, and to my surprise, it was. I'm glad that this amazing game still has an active community even all these years later.
I came back to this game recently since I randomly stopped playing at some point. I remember it was one of the first games I got when I got my ps4 in 2017 Having over 500+ hours played and playing it again reminded me how much fun it is. Still being the first and only pvp shooter I genuinely enjoy playing It’s also nice people my age also play and enjoy gw2
me and my friends all bought it for pc because sometimes we just want to play the game we used to love so much again. The great thing about GW2 is its so timeless and casual and you have lots and lots of fun. Honestly in my opinion one of the greatest games ever
I remember buying it in launch aswell as gw1. And honestly we shouldnt have asked for gw 3 the game was fine but ea heard the fans and made a game that died so fast I havent played in years. Was so close to unlocking torchwood and never got a good legendary such as iron brains or toxuc brains
I LOVED the first garden warfare. It was the first game I bought on my Xbox One in high school. I don't remember when I started Garden Warfare 2, but it was a great game that I was just too distracted with other games to play much.
Honestly if theres any updates I’d wish it would be for the quality of life features that were only added in bfn to make it to gw2 as unrealistic as it sounds. Having a chomper that doesn’t rely on cheap abilities, or a super brainz with a turbo twister ability that’s literally just empty space, the more balanced hyper, the way contested turf points work, the very useful overtime bar. Those are just some but I can’t believe they chose not to put those very useful features in gw2 for instead a game that ended up poofing after a year…
I got Garden warfare 2 recently since I was a fan of it and never had a console back then. I’m glad I bought it cause playing scalleywag imp is really fun even though I die every five seconds
Although for me, this is a game of the past, it has definitely been amongst my favourite games of all time and one that I’ve sunk a lot of hours into. This video makes me want to play it again but I haven’t touched my Xbox in over 4 years and don’t intend in doing so
It’s super replayable due to grinding to get characters and rank them up. It’s one of the few games now without sweaty sbmm lobbies which is refreshing
One faithful day I found my cd for Pvz gw 1 in a box and remembered how fun it was (had a complete account as a kid, all characters and almost all cosmetics) so I take my ps3 plug it and loose the account… this made me buy gw2 and it ain’t bad, nostalgia hits just right
In my oppinion buying the trials of gnomus should force you to play the trials first and then you can get the skins or have it unlock the trials so you only have to the gnome fights
I was 10 when the game came out, my parents didnt mind much on 18+ shooters game that I would play but never touched it. I tend to love GW2 alot. Now that i’m 18, I still play on this day playing GW2 after quitting rank games. Yet never bothered about 18+ shooter games due to mass microtransactions and battle passess, absolute steal.
This was my favorite game for so long, I haven't played it in at least 4 years now, but I cant believe people still play it, Im going to see if I can find where I owned it to get back into it!
GW3 would go so hard… but I loved this game back in like 2017 and it was just really fun. Been playing every once in a while for the last year. Thinking about trying GW1…
There are a lot of reasons. For example, the game has less sweat players, it's chill, there is no battle pass or skins or pay to win stuff and the gameplayis overall extremelyfun . Basically it has everything that makes a game good
Is it worth buying it again? I lost my disc a few years ago but I’ve grinded al the characters but I’m not sure if I should buy it again if the matches don’t have people.. do they?
Even though i stopped playing gw2 after i reached max rank. Still Will be one of my favorite games i played. I honestly wish they still update this game. I hope this game can update one day.
I'm glad to see this game is still being talked about up to this day and that somewhow it got revived since not too long ago (a year or more?) it was pretty dead and couldn't find any games. lol
i wish theyd make a new one with the same passion. i only got the chance to play it a few times before its death, garden warfare that is, as growing up i wasnt fortunate enough to just buys games and have a new console soon as it came out. i remember watching videos on it and thinking it looked so fun and by the time i got to it, it was all players who had the game down so id just die and let it go. Its crazy how much potential these "silly" games had.
I'm a fan of the character designs and just how flipping addicting this game is. There have been plenty of times where i say to myself "one more game," and then bam, its 8am and I need to go to bed lol
If you guys enjoyed this video, check out some of my other GW2 content!
It isn’t still working lol last time I played this it was all bots there would be between two and 5 players in any lobby with the rest bots
are the multiplayer servers closed? I want to buy it but idk if the multiplayer servers are still on oor are the servers for gw1 done?

The first Garden Warfare was my first online multiplayer shooter game. I even remember waking up earlier to play a single round before going to school. Gotta give a chance to the second game
i think its the same reason that tf2 is still alive being that its really replayable and more importantly really good
i still can't understand why are they just don't stop supporting Plants versus Zombies neighborville and come back to Garden Warfare 2 and start updating it again
It probably looks bad for ea stock investors. They don't care about their games or player base just money
They did shut down support for Neighborville they just didn’t comeback to gw2
They stopped supporting the game 3 yrs ago 💀 the game died really fast and all future content got scrapped
i played it a long time ago then i quit and i started playing again because of nostalgia and i now want to master each and every character before leaving the game again and all their styles too
I downloaded gw2 yesterday again. Its still very good game in 2024.
Man the nostalgia that i have for this game is crazy, even if i played this game when i was like 8 lol. I used to play it with my cousin all the time, and we would spend actual hours playing every day that we could. We spent so much time finding out every possible easter egg and the gnomes, the gnomes were easily the most fun we had in the game. We were HYPED when we found out about the gnome cave area (i forgot the name) and the gnomus trials. And the whome hub world (whos name i also forgot) was so much fun to just run around and discovers things. The missions were the best part of the hub world for me, the storylines, new maps, objectives and other stuff.
I wouldn't be surprised if GW2 ends up like TF2, a game still thriving years after not being updated.
This video has made me want to go play GW2 again, so I guess I'm doing that now.
I am genuinely surprised that it is still going with a dedicated player base. I still remember watching tons of videos of this game years ago and begged my parents to buy me it
Too this day I think evolve was ahead of it’s time. That game, in this gaming age would have been one of the biggest free to play games out there, would be as huge as dead by daylight
Stopped playing cause overwatch is the greatest hero shooter (superior balancing of classes imo). But wow I'm surprised how popular this is, truly is a fun experience and glad the community is thriving
Over watched is good except them delaying stuff
I started playing again on pc yesterday. Even with lag, framedrops and all the bugs, this is SO MUCH MORE FUN than overwatch
This is a great video, more than half of these reasons are why I have pretty consistently played the game. Another great point is the road to max rank grind keeping people on and on the grind! (like me)
so true, I haven't even played multiplayer more than 5 times and I still have played the game almost every week for 6 years
Nostalgia is the only reason why I’m buying Garden warfare one again
I got the game on release date and played it for 250 hours. A month ago I was thinking about it and decided to reinstall it and see if it was still active, and to my surprise, it was. I'm glad that this amazing game still has an active community even all these years later.
Keeping the same concept from the first game was nice and the new characters were actually nice to have around
I came back to this game recently since I randomly stopped playing at some point. I remember it was one of the first games I got when I got my ps4 in 2017
Having over 500+ hours played and playing it again reminded me how much fun it is. Still being the first and only pvp shooter I genuinely enjoy playing
It’s also nice people my age also play and enjoy gw2
I love this game because of the varients and incredible game-feel
Truly no other game like it
me and my friends all bought it for pc because sometimes we just want to play the game we used to love so much again. The great thing about GW2 is its so timeless and casual and you have lots and lots of fun. Honestly in my opinion one of the greatest games ever
I remember buying it in launch aswell as gw1.
And honestly we shouldnt have asked for gw 3 the game was fine but ea heard the fans and made a game that died so fast
I havent played in years.
Was so close to unlocking torchwood and never got a good legendary such as iron brains or toxuc brains
It’s nostalgic, it’s for all ages and is one of the best 3rd person shooters ever.
I have mad nostalgia for this game staying up late in 2017 grinding the game and in 2020 doing trails of gnomus watching wolfy playz
I LOVED the first garden warfare. It was the first game I bought on my Xbox One in high school. I don't remember when I started Garden Warfare 2, but it was a great game that I was just too distracted with other games to play much.
It’s one of those games that is pure nostalgia and ages amazingly well. Can only say that for very few games.
Wolfy Playz is one of the bigger UA-camrs still playing the game to this day. He brought me back to the game multiple times.
Honestly if theres any updates I’d wish it would be for the quality of life features that were only added in bfn to make it to gw2 as unrealistic as it sounds. Having a chomper that doesn’t rely on cheap abilities, or a super brainz with a turbo twister ability that’s literally just empty space, the more balanced hyper, the way contested turf points work, the very useful overtime bar. Those are just some but I can’t believe they chose not to put those very useful features in gw2 for instead a game that ended up poofing after a year…
I got Garden warfare 2 recently since I was a fan of it and never had a console back then. I’m glad I bought it cause playing scalleywag imp is really fun even though I die every five seconds
glad to see all the GW veterans here after all this time.
popped up in my recommended and im suprised this game is still around lmao. i remember grinding the first one back when it came out
i remember getting my xbox one for christmas and i got first garden warfare with it. Had alot of fun back then
Although for me, this is a game of the past, it has definitely been amongst my favourite games of all time and one that I’ve sunk a lot of hours into.
This video makes me want to play it again but I haven’t touched my Xbox in over 4 years and don’t intend in doing so
Isn’t the phenomenal plant/zombie pack thing new?
i loved this game because of all the character variety every character has something special to them
It’s super replayable due to grinding to get characters and rank them up. It’s one of the few games now without sweaty sbmm lobbies which is refreshing
Gw2🤜🏼💥🤛🏼tf2

Being outstanding sequels that have stood the test of time due to being so amazingly unique, iconic, and nostalgic
One faithful day I found my cd for Pvz gw 1 in a box and remembered how fun it was (had a complete account as a kid, all characters and almost all cosmetics) so I take my ps3 plug it and loose the account… this made me buy gw2 and it ain’t bad, nostalgia hits just right
Ages ago I used to live stream this game, I had like 250 hours of streams and thousands of hours on it so I come back to it often.
its at 9000 24 hour player peak on steam rn
In my oppinion buying the trials of gnomus should force you to play the trials first and then you can get the skins or have it unlock the trials so you only have to the gnome fights
I think it's also just a case of people like myself, who played the game so much that we got attached to it, despite it being a very flawed title.
I was 10 when the game came out, my parents didnt mind much on 18+ shooters game that I would play but never touched it. I tend to love GW2 alot. Now that i’m 18, I still play on this day playing GW2 after quitting rank games. Yet never bothered about 18+ shooter games due to mass microtransactions and battle passess, absolute steal.
i honestly pray that one day the developers see what much of a master piece they made and come back and update it
This was my favorite game for so long, I haven't played it in at least 4 years now, but I cant believe people still play it, Im going to see if I can find where I owned it to get back into it!
Helps that to this day its still the most unique shooter out there. Though rivals seems close.
tbh lot of shooter's are really bloody and violet but gw2 it takes the cake
Im thinking about buying this game now
nice to see this game is still around!!! It was a banger in my childhood!
GW3 would go so hard… but I loved this game back in like 2017 and it was just really fun. Been playing every once in a while for the last year. Thinking about trying GW1…
I didn't knew it was successful at all at lunch ! Interesting, it was a nice experience when I tested it.
GW2 is what Battlefront 2 should have been.
Battlefront 2 is a great game
@@stormchasin7417 took 2 years to get to that point
@@thatoneantoid51 yea but it’s a great game now, it’s not dice’s fault that EA made them put the game out so early
@@stormchasin7417 GW2 is what BF2 should've been at launch.
Please do not excuse them.
Yeah keep going I hope that you become a great UA-camr
Your an amazing youtuber!
bro i played pvz1 and pvz2, got everything maxxed in pvz2 but played it last time 2020, and last time with friends 2018😭 that sh*t is so nostalgic
There are a lot of reasons. For example, the game has less sweat players, it's chill, there is no battle pass or skins or pay to win stuff and the gameplayis overall extremelyfun
. Basically it has everything that makes a game good
Is it worth buying it again? I lost my disc a few years ago but I’ve grinded al the characters but I’m not sure if I should buy it again if the matches don’t have people.. do they?
On PlayStation at least it’s easy to find matches. I’d imagine Xbox and Pc are similar
The games never boring with all the variations of characters and the community isn't toxic af but welcoming and chill
I have some great memories with this title!
Thoroughly enjoyed this video!
Awesome, thank you!
Longer time to kill in a kids game = less ragequits. probably a significant contributor to its success
I still play this game and my sons a lot . I still play it and never gets old
Usually when I go back to nostalgic games, I get bored quite quickly but gw2 just hits different 😝
zesty ahh emoji
Zesty ahh fella
Even though i stopped playing gw2 after i reached max rank. Still Will be one of my favorite games i played. I honestly wish they still update this game. I hope this game can update one day.
I'm glad to see this game is still being talked about up to this day and that somewhow it got revived since not too long ago (a year or more?) it was pretty dead and couldn't find any games. lol
Garden warfare is on that
Online void with tf2 at his side
i wish theyd make a new one with the same passion. i only got the chance to play it a few times before its death, garden warfare that is, as growing up i wasnt fortunate enough to just buys games and have a new console soon as it came out. i remember watching videos on it and thinking it looked so fun and by the time i got to it, it was all players who had the game down so id just die and let it go. Its crazy how much potential these "silly" games had.
How could it be more successful? Add a rotation system and the boss fights in, I know they say they can’t but it’s possible.
I'm a fan of the character designs and just how flipping addicting this game is. There have been plenty of times where i say to myself "one more game," and then bam, its 8am and I need to go to bed lol
The reason I still play is because I play the first plants vs zombies game when I was 3 years old and I growed up with the franchise and I love it.
