I got the inspiration to make this video from watching 'Rock On' (duh!) but it even surprised me that a movie which has nothing to do with Video Games at all is the one that got the ball rolling, Inspiration comes from anywhere truly.
'PROCASTINATION POSIONS CREATIVITY'
That's the thing I learnt from this project , I had so many great ideas for this video now granted I was able to execute 90% of them but that remaining 10% man , the ideas that I missed out on might not be important in a macroscopic lens BUT I OBSESSE over tiny details , if something doesn't go the way I want I will lose my mind , because what if that 10% of the ideas that I skipped had the key to take my content to the next level , and the only reason why I didn't do them IS BECAUSE OF ME which is hilarious! Aur mai koi red pill Andrew Tate type stuff preach nai kar raha vo sab Bakwaas hai!
Eh zyada time waste nai karunga bas itna keh raha hu Don't Procrastinate on stuff ESPECIALLY If you are in a Creative field , make the most of the time you have!
Also seeing so many comments on the last video of people expressing their views and thoughts about gaming ,I can gladly say that I achieved the goal I set for that video and its all thanks to you guys! I really hope you guys enjoyed this video too! and if you think this video lacked something or could have been better , definitely let me know and no NOT BETTER IN THE SENSE KI MERA FAVORITE GAME MENTION nai kiya but as in The pacing of the video , the editing and all the other stuff!
Anyways its 4:30 AM while am writing this and why are you still reading this!? I leave these notes for me.
The pacing seems really good to me, actually this might be the 1st time i have seen a partial hindi video game essay with good pacing+editing. People only do commentary gaming videos here and nobody tries essays or they don't have the style that is digestible.
Also, small correction 2nd hand console games can be returned after buying on the same website for a bit price deduction on gamenation(haven't used cex or gameloot) and therefore console gamers can play at lower cost
12:43 What's with that moan sfx
Jin games mai Denuvo hai woh toh hum buy karlenge. Why pay for denuvo less games.
If u want to waste your money on steam for the same experience which you will get from piracy then go for it. Vaise bhi it dosen't matter if u have a pc it means you are paying for your wifi.
You deserve more subscribers and views man, you are so passionate.
@@aqplaysgames you have a point man!!
bruh could you talk about the whole #fixTF2 and the bot crisis
"If buying games isn't owning then pirating games isn't stealing"
#ubisoft😂
You never "owned" the game though. You were always lent the game on lease. It's literally why EULA exists. Ubisoft just stated it out loud that gamers aren't liking it. It's nothing new to the table
@@iditrirajan people when they refer to talking about owning games they are taking about games like God of war 2/3 , Nintendo's Pokemon games any ps2-3 games which can run on their own without the need of the games server being up or not
@@iditrirajanthat's what they meant by owning games , even if you watch some ordinary gamers who is vocal about the fact that games should be a product you own , he doesn't asks the companies to only make offline games he is asking them to make games but when the game is about to be closed or being shutdown provide and option for running it without the need of internet so that people can actually own their games and play whenever they want
I know it is not possible with games like fortnite or rainbow six siege but it is damn well should be possible for games like God of war Ragnarok or grand turismo titles or any games which doesn't need online connectivity to actually make the game function
u people want a excuse to steal.accept it and move on xd.
Quite rare to find an indian talking about such topics in gaming. Kudos , brother

Bruh i downloaded skyrim with my mobile data 💀. Everyday with my 1gb mobile data. Take me a whole month to download skyrim. I Had to wake up 4am to have a good internet. The feeling after installing Skyrim is insane.
@@gokuok516 i did this too during early jio days , downloaded games in 700mb parts from a site by the name 'apun ka games ' , that was year 2019.
Today i'm 21 years old with a decent laptop and an xbox series s . Times have changed , i can afford to pay for playing games. And i bought these by my money , not my fathers. Life changes , but the love for video games never faded

I played a lot of games with piracy. Now, since I work , I bought almost all of them. Why ? Just because I can now pay for it, and being a programmer myself I know the hard work of a programmer.
Well i work too. But honestly I don't think many western developers deserve my money.
@@sampatkalyan3103 yes bro like 4000 is too much and Ubisoft almost 10k for AC shadows bruh
Even donkey works hard , don't pay for it unless it's a complete product and it doesn't push any political agenda.
Specially ubisoft
How they can remove games from our library because someone was inactive@@sampatkalyan3103
Which website is he talking about because I can't figure out?
Nice try IRS still gonna pirate
I have been literally collecting games in EPIC GAMES since 2020 but stopped in 2022 then restarted after a year. I didn't even had a PC which could play any of those games but still collected those and now i am enjoying those games.
Thank you for giving this advice!
Did you play Ghostrunner? It's so good..
fr I've been collecting pc games from epic games since they made gta 5 free I've never missed a single games best decision ive ever made the amount of games and the quality of games I've gotten from it is just mind blowing whenever I show my library to my friends they just can't believe that everything I've had in their is free
I have been collecting since 2020 gta v. And this year I'm getting gaming pc
I missed some of the anticipated games bhai, dishonored, wwz, death stranding, I was able to collect many although. I didn't even have a PC back in 2020, now I have a ryzen 5600g build, I will upgrade with a decent graphics card by next year probably.I was able to play GTA V and complete the story, and man I waited for the story and didn't ruin it for myself. Played Sekiro and DS1 as well. I purchased the Arkham Collection today for Rs. 212 and I am satisfied. It was my first Steam Purchase.
One of the best Indian gaming commentary, and being a gamer for over 15 years really impressed with the level of research and the video script.
Gamer😂😂😂
Loved your pov on piracy aur kya end kara video ko mast.
Bhai tu yaha pe kaise itna underrated hai tu
@@Amanz86 bhai itna bhe sach mat bolo 💀
Omi bhai aap bhi pirated game stream kario full sapot.
Bro decided to drop another banger video
delusional
As a student i really cant pay 4000 for games like ghost of tshushima or the last of us. For me its either pirate the games or dont play them at all. So in those cases i have to resort to piracy . But this one tweet i read from a game developer a couple days back sums it up, "If u cant help us financially, help us through word of mouth" but one thing i can say for sure is that when i start earning i will buy games
This is the only time piracy is justified. Since you literally can't spend any money on games, its fine, but later when you get a job and start earning you shouldn't continue to pirate. Otherwise you don't have any morals and are simply chindi.
Bai even as student, you can save enough to buy games like the witcher 3 or superliminal or other indie games in steam. But yeah, if you want to play the high end games then pirate is best choice.
from where can u pirate games i just opened a yt channel an am currently learning
@@prajwalkrishnabhat5539 bought forza 4, witcher 3 and hollow knight and ac2
@@Platinash03 fitgirl repack is the best. All games won't be there but whatever is there is top notch, almost no problems.
If paying isn't owning, then piracy isn't illegal
Ubishit
we pay to get a copy of the game to play and own the copy, not for the assets of the game as they have done many R&Ds for it
@@editingmachine3748 No one discussed owning a game outright; instead, they focused on owning a copy and not being banned for reasons that don't align with the company's policies.
as if you own the game, you wouldn't pirate lmao man just accept it, and move on
a person buying a 80 thousand device and pirating a 1000 rupees game is a chindi
pirating abandonware games isn't wrong, but same for the indie titles or titles present on the store is definitely yes
many titles go very cheap at steam sales, buy those and it can easily be done by managing your expenses
But the thing is why do you need to justify? Just do whatever you want
hands down greatest video game commentary video I've watched, half of the reason was elder scrolls's soundtrack used but HELL YEAH!! great video
This video is very engaging, really appreciate the style
Quality content! 👏
Skyrim Music + Game Sound Effects, got a new subscriber dude nice editing man
under rated channel. ngl your writing and editing are upto the mark, there was not a single time that I thought the video became boring. You hooked the audience till the end. Keep it up buddy
Bro who are you man. You have insane story telling skills. I absolutely loved the conclusion. Looking forward to more videos!
Just discovered this channel, always happy to see a quality indian content creator. Wishing you the best bhai
Such a quality content, properly explained with good editing and humour, absolutely LOVED the meta jokes, iconic soundtracks of different iconic games throughout the video ❤❤❤
This is the kind if genre that Indian UA-camrs never explored all the best broo. I see a lot of potential in the gener and your editing skills will add on to it
👍👍
You have been picked up by algorithm it will be quite nice to see whether you keep making these videos as a source of creative or you succumb towards sustainability by making fast paced 10 min stimulating and rage inducing videos.
Hope thay you find the best path forward and create a union of sustainable and creative videos
Brotha You Make Quality Content. Enjoying This Keep Posting
bhai u gained a sub, your content ek aise slot me fit karta h jiske mujhe itni need thi k me khud banane ka soch rha tha 😂 but still keep on going
great video! waiting for more commentaries on video games
didn't expect such high quality video from such a small creator, keep up the good work man
The content and video quality is just too good. I watched full video without skipping. Just amazing video
A w Video Broooooo....Thank You
Excellent
this is a very well made video, keep up the goodwork
Your channel gives me hope, we need more creators like you
Not even the fbi can't stop me from pirating AAA games who's greedy corporations shut down the games which I PAID FULL PRICE FOR and not even letting me run private servers....
"Tere Naam hairstyle", love ur content
bro you are a true gamer at heart. in the entire video you spoke like someone who is grown with games.
Glad that youtube has recommended your video. Being a 90's kid, this topic has matched with my emotion. I played many pirated games, then I used to pre-order every game when games were cheap and now I just simply wait for 2-3 years for a good deal like 70-80% off on the game as I don't get too much time to play anymore. But yeah, thanks to you for speaking on this topic. subbed. 👍
Piracy industry had a huge role in shaping mentality of Indian society these people allowed middel class people to access the Movies, music and Videos games which they can't afford I played so many PS2 video games because of these RS:30 CD'S now when I have money as an adult I'll surely buy the original Video Games but I won't have this much of passion for it agar ye pirated Games nahi hoti, As a content creator I understand the loss of the producers but we have to understand one thing IF someone has the money to buy original why he would buy Pirated. All these Pirated company's shaped the Indian society we are like this now because of them. as of now I buy replica sneaker but whenever I have decent budget I go the OG too. This piricy thing is good to build the interest in the public and when they are able to afford they'll surely go for the OG.
if someone has a device to run alan wake or cyberpunk, i am 100 percent sure wo game bhi afford kar hi sakta hai
games go very low on sales, thoda paise save karo aur sales mein buy karlo, many people don't really know about managing expenses and saving money
even if you save 200-300 rupees per month, you can easily buy games at sales, also don't forget gamepass as an option
second point agar PC acha nahi hai toh indie titles toh waise bhi 200-300 ke milte hai, you can get good quality experience at very cheap
Bhai ye Banda aise hi videos banata jayega toh ek din pakka bohot famous hoga. Mere shabdh dhyan me Rakhna ❤
man you gonna go big amazing video HUGE W
Great editing and you have great voice and pacing of the video is just right on dot. Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
Since you mentioned games like Hollow Knight, Firewatch and Undertale which are actual gems, and people here in India don't play "Non-Mainstream" games, where all people play are games like GTA V, Valorant and other free multiplayer games, I appreciate you talking about them. Great video, sub earned.
Kaer Morhen music is love💕
Hands down good video bro 🙌🏻 kept me attached throughout the complete video❤ liked it and good job for the script work too
Good stuff bro. Happy to see an Indian UA-camr talking about gaming in such nuance. The script kept me engaged throughout the video too
I am 18 yo who earns no income at all ..my parents are kind of persons who hate video games.. I somehow convinced them to buy me a 2lakh pc but they never give me a single rupees for games so i got none other way then Just to pirate them 😂😂
So you had money (were able to convince your parents) to buy a 2L PC which have parts sold at large profits by very big corporations but opt for pirating games instead of purchasing them even at a discount?
What kind of logic is this.
@@RingoSkulkin I said that I wanted to learn graphics designing you know..nd I am learning as well but as I said they hate it so I can't spend money on that stuff unless I earn on my own.. nd they hate it so there's no option for me to convience them to buy games even at disc..nd they re corporate they're supposed to sold item at sustainable profit margins to survive..
@@obito9897 you must be ripping your parents off bro for learning graphic designing 200k u spend for a pc is too much that all i have to say bro I'm an vfx and cgi artist my parents never had to pay that much amount for a pc
@@RingoSkulkin he can do a lot more with a pc
2 lakhs for PC is too much
Bhai kisi web series ke 1 episode jitni lenght ki videos 💀
This video was really well done, you got a sub!
Nice video broo maza aagaya relatable content tha , also agree on the piracy part of video
I recently came across your channel, and I am loving every upload, keep going brother, we want to see more from you 🩵
Warframe ko tor ne ki kya jarurat thi bariya game toh hai ,baaki video toh sahi thi 😂
Gotta appreciate your BTS hairstyle 😅😅
Great video brother especially the end part
Loved the video Man!!❤
Well said👍👌
Best Method: Play CS2 and get creates free every week then sell them on steam market and use that money to buy games on steam sales
Edit: You can only sell creates on steam if u have bought any game small/big in your lifetime.
Ek crate se kitna kama lenge?
@@mr.statuz4393 5 rupay (me being optimistic)
Yeah and in 10years you (may) have enough money to buy fnaf2
And you would get cents
So I have wish listed far cry games on steam waiting for it to go on sale
When the sale arrives I intend to purchase it but steam didn't accept my debit card
I was pissed 😡
#PiracyJustified
haa same happened with me as well Maine mere friend ka card borrow kiya fir, if any of your friend have a visa or mastercard debit card ask them to gift the game via steam and then pay them
@@mydee2802 bro don't use credit card, better to buy using steam gift card, i dont have credit card but i buy games using steam gift card
steam also uses upi tho, i used just a few days ago
Bhai , feels like old good friend! Brought some sweet memories
Just checked ur channel after this video nd i wanna say this one blow up..gonna say ur consistency from four years
You forgot about a very important point.. Purchase power parity.. Based on purchasing power, 1 usd is roughly equal to 23 rupees. Americans view 1 dollar as we view 20 rs. So a 50 dollar game to them feels like 1000 rs, but for us it's 4000...so for them it's like buying a 200 usd game, they'll never do it!! So why the he'll should we not pirate these
Great comment
players who play pirated games are true gamers💥💥💥❤🔥

Message to Indian guys. Unless you're not talking in english, stop making english worded title and thumbnail. Misleading useless and annoying. You guys have your own script right ? Use those if you're talking in your language

we use english a lot here
cry about it :p

You have natural talent for long form content man. Keep it going!
Awesome vid buddy.. Took me down the memory lane multiple times in this vid, i 100% agree with everything you said.. Earned my sub! 👍
Great content yaar! Subscribed

Good opinions man. Please keep making videos
Beautifully made! You got a subscriber!
In your upcoming video I'd like to see you talk about regional pricing more as I'm a ps5 player and that platform does not have great deals as good as pc ones.
Good video bhai, keep it up, subscribed!
Just found out this channel.
Never found any indian channel serving this niche topic.
Great editing! Great video!
Loved it bro ...!!
less go love the vid quality content
Man you had my undivided attention for 30 min straight!
Your script was really good
Didn't skip anywhere and listened carefully on your views on this topic ❤
actual cultured gamer right here, hard to find around these parts
hats off to ya
Since most people here have already voiced my opinions on the video itself, I just want to compliment the choice of video game soundtracks you used throughout the video. I got giddy when I heard MGS music.
what a great detailed and informative video for new gamers
The Algorithm randomly recommend me this video and I freaking loved this. Definitely subscribing and waiting for your next video!
The editing, the writing, this is a masterpiece. Instant sub.
Randomly found your channel on UA-cam. You are a real gamer bro.
Really well video, i enjoyed it
great video good subtitles thank you

this type of content is not made by indian youtuber, kudos to you bro, you brough back so many memories.
This was such a well made video 🍻
good video, bhai. very factual & informative. i'm an old gamer who's playing since 2005
Bro i like your content . Hope your old videos are like this

Appreciate the Oblivion clip and vice city soundtrack. You’re in my zone
Great video brother, as a fellow gamer i admire people like you making genuine gaming content for indian folks, you gained a subscriber🎉
I can't remember the last time I watched a 30 minute gaming related video from an Indian UA-camr. Kudos brother!
It's so good to see people in India talking about these topics. Many so-called gamers play only multiplayer free to play games or games which are trending. For example the souls genre is so famous outside of india but in india inly few people know about Elden ring, sekiro etc.
You really contradict yourself. Lol
dude loved the channel finally we have a actual real gaming channel
great content man!
Bhai editing is really good for a small channel and content is also good keep posting
