The Concerns of Making an Expected Sequel

- I captured an unusual stage of making a video. After I had collected the footage, narrated it and had approximately arranged it all in Vegas, I was ready to view it for the first time. But I realised I had so many worries! Would it live up to the standards set by the series, and the expectations of the viewers? I quickly typed it all up, before getting on, watching, editing and finishing the video.
And what's more, it's a video for a series that has just taken off and gotten popular. This will be the second video that many people will watch and its quality will decide whether they want to watch more. I decided to preserve my thoughts at this unusual moment with this video.
It's now all done and released and you can see it here: • Medieval 2: Total Crash
You ever just thought people may klick just for that gorgeous voice of yours?
+1
That's definetely a factor.
I don't care/play/own CS:GO. I just watch for his voice.
It's kinda relaxing
idk man, it's his personality that klicks with me
if i'm quite honest, i don't really compare your videos to each other ... So far, i really enjoyed all the videos i watched from you, and that's the reason i come back.
I really like the flashbacks, i don't know why, but i like them :D but that doesnt mean there should be one in every video. It seems you interpret into the comments :) I'd say, don't stress yourself to much. Nobody wants a burnt out Philip. Love ya
I think the fact that some DONT like something does not mean they don't want to see more of it. I may not like one part of a video, but seeing it gone because I said so doesn't help anyone.
LOL Im too, are you me?
Oh damn, I knew you read comments but I didn't expect to see me in the video. What a lovely surprise to wake up to. Also solid advice at the end there, For the past year Iv'e been so caught up with one upping myself every video that it sometimes causes me to over-edit and lose work to unstable project save files. You also mentioned video ideas where the individual scenes and skits are great standalone but are very loosely related and/or they don't mesh together in a way that is natural. Iv'e also had this happen, the best way to avoid this happening is to not work on the video as chunks, But rather do what you do and bounce between the game, OBS and Vegas/premiere.
hi peter :D
woah hey peter, didn't know you also liked the taste of the klik
TF:GO
TF:GO 2 episode 1
Why u copy peter scrap scrap?
For me watching youtube videos and watching philip's videos is two different things. Many youtube videos have their own pattern of showing content, their style is almost the same. Philips videos are a god damn journeys that I just want to sit back, watch and feel something different every time I watch a new video. I love your style, music you use, games you play, and you :P (nohomo) your videos are getting better and better, keep it up :D
Fully agree. Usually I get bored of youtubers after around a year because of this but I've been watching Philip for 3 years and it still feels like Christmas when he uploads
Even as a kid you already invested in armor and helmet. Nice.
Phillip, I just want to say that every single one of your videos I have got something out of. First your Hammer tutorials helped me out modding HL2 and made me aware of your CSGO videos, which then caused me to buy CSGO and use a lot of your advice. Your more comedic stuff (not saying your other stuff isn't funny, because it is) such as 2kliksphillip's S.H.I.T, Total War series, and How Will He Die? are all a great time to watch.
I also really appreciate the variety of content you make, as it means that the next upload will most likely be a suprise. (and a pleasant one at that.)
I look forward to your next video.
*PICK UP THAT CAN*
I agree, he's definitely one of the most unique channels on TH-cam - and by far my favorite!
@@IkerPineapple Almost every time I comment something like this happens.
I still have nightmares about that cat
@@IkerPineapple gawd darnit
Ever so impressed by your dedication and commitment. Ever since the first day I came across your channels, I've been such a fan of your videos and workflow. In my experience, whenever I see someone make something they love, I think that's good enough, (though I know others might disagree). Keep up the great work! You're an inspiration to me.
Hey kliksphilip. Can you do an interview with 2kliksphilips dad, please? Ever since the series were 2kliksphilip talked about his experiences with sleep and dreams, I have a particular emotion when I hear the music. I've learned to admire the music and wish to hear from the man who inspired it.
I don't know who else would watch that. But I definitely would. Love the music too.
yes! that would be a great video , there's just something about the music in your videos that makes them amazing like something klicks in my mind
I agree
seconded
@@pjaec7625 I see what you did there
Your Total War is unique, you’re focusing to have fun and make sure that we do too. Don’t stop Total War.
Mann, you're like the most down-to-earth content creator I know, chill, RELAX, you've been in the scene long enough to know what your audiences wants, more importantly, you know what you want, trying to cater for every minority, well; "In trying to please everyone, you please no one" - Regardless, great video, always nice to see insights from the man himself, good job :)
what's so good about this series is the thing you are doing where you treat a serious game in a non-serious manner. the clips of the very serious voices from the game that you pepper in are just great. focusing on the crashes was also very good and a relatable thing even if you haven't played the game before. another thing i enjoy is a thing that i see a lot of video editors on youtube do. little jokes that entertain you while you are editing and you kind of only do for you. more of that please.
much respect!
The British accent and your voice are must for me to listen to each week.Gorgeous lyrics and entertaining videos don't hurt either.Keep doing what you are doing for as long as you enjoy it cuz i certainly love all your content,even some i did not expect to love.
Thanks for sharing your anxiety as I'm sure it's tough to put your feelings out there sometimes. I really enjoy the humanizing factor these reflections have on my view of you. I enjoy your style as an artist and I have yet to be disappointed by you. I'm thankful that you continue to put content out for us. Thank you.
I love these introspective videos,youre one of the few youtubers that ive seen that actually cares about their content,and these videos just goes to show how much thought and work is put into each one. Honestly all your videos are must watches,and just so good. Hope you continue making content,its sure to be great.
I think just the fact that you put so much love, effort and thought into making your videos automatically makes you one of the better TH-camrs out there.
hey man, all of your stuff on all of your channels is fantastic. your insight, wit, and frankness about not only the content of the video but also the creation of the video and your experience as a maker more generally are truly hard to come by anywhere on TH-cam or the internet at all. your stuff all rules, and ill watch it all forever.
I love these kind of videos! A real reminder that you are human like any of us and go through all the struggles has we mortals do
Love the total war series you’re doing. I’ve never played the game but always excited to watch a new instalment.
I’m glad you didn’t just repeat the flashback sequence. Don’t get me wrong I love them but it’s important to not have each video have a flashback and become samey and predictable. Mixing it up with the fake ending and cinematic sequence was top.
The hardest part is coming up with original sequences to insert into the video to make it different but I hope you think it’s worth it because I love it. Of course you can rehash a flashback bit in future videos but I’m glad you’re focusing on keeping them mixed.
10/10 love your work
I listen to your videos for your voice and your thoughts and opinions.
I really do like your videos, not just for your jokes and content (even though they're amazing as well) but you make me go back to my own adventures in gaming when I was young. Usually I pretended to be sick to stay at home, and when I did I got this weird feeling of just being able to do whatever I wanted for the day. The real life parts of some of your videos (Especially the game making adventure ones) make me really happy and give me a nice feeling as one day I would also like to be able to stay at home all the time. Your videos always manage to cheer me up and I'm always excited to see a new video of yours. Keep up the amazing vids
do the s.h.i.t. advice videos make you feel the same?
...
Your videos are always of an impressive quality and the work you put into them really shows.
I watched a 4 minute ad for you.
If that's not love then I don't know what is.
TH-cam doesnt Care If you watch trough it tho
I wouldn't have so much doubt if I were you. You got the recipe right, your videos are really entertaining and the wit of your commentary just feels spot on.
Your video essays are super entertaining and insightful.
I love these videos. You're an awesome creator and I honestly am happy with whatever content you put out!
Love your series, and love listening to you talk.
I think a reason the last video was shared so much was because of the flashback, you've used it a lot and people enjoy it.
That being said, I loved the new video! I liked how different it felt from the previous, even if I prefer the previous (with the flashback). The most recent one had its own feel that most creators wouldn't try to do, but I appreciate you trying to expand and possibly add new twists that we might not have been expecting
I love the way you narrate all your non-topic videos and I want to see more, always : )
Not convinced that this guy could make a video I wouldn't watch and enjoy.
I am really impressed every single video you release is a masterpiece and different experience (apart from that quicksand one)
The poetry was sweet as hell. I personally think this recent video is your best yet.
I for one have enjoyed all the videos in the series, and these behind the scenes videos are fascinating.
I certainly preferred Medieval 2 to the Rome video. Both were incredibly funny. So you’re doing well Phil!!!!
Its 2 am here I don't know why or how I'm still awake but yay a video from Phillip
Man, Philip these self reflection videos are some of my favorite.
I didn’t realise how much making ONE video worries you. I now appreciate that you have created a new video I watched all the going low in csgo and the total war videos. Even shogun 2! As an entertainer you shouldn’t have to worry so much. The longer your video the more I enjoy it. These kliksphilip videos resonate with me for some reason, the sleep disruption videos are amazing because I can always remember dreams and in dreams I know I’m in said dream.
I love every upload you post. I love CS, I love Total War, but most of all I love it when you talk about random things. You are what keeps your audience not the games you play or the series you make.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts/perspective. I enjoyed your video and it's cool to hear how you feel about it.
I love Total War and I love these Total War videos you're doing. Please keep making them!

unnoticed ISP is unnoticed.
I see ya.
Total war: Dawn of the artillery
Anti-aircraft DLC only 9.99
The Big man of the Big Bite is here
I love your videos, especially your total war content, i'm glad you continue to produce them despite the amount of patience it must have taken (particularly dealing with that crash-fest)
Really interesting seeing the thought process behind this.
I think you are my favourite TH-camr! I hope you'll achieve everything that you take on.
In my opinion, almost every track from Medieval 2 is gold.
YES! Never change your music and consistent intros, the music is a huge part of what makes those parts so great. It would be like having different music every time Darth Vader enters a scene in Star Wars, it just wouldnt have the same effect without the music.
I get so excited every time I see one of your videos has been released
You can change, you can copy your old self or maybe even copy others. But one thing will always be a constant: I'll always watch your video from beginning to end, and there is nothing you can do about it!
I'm glad you strive to improve! Your mentality makes these videos really enjoyable to watch and I'm genuinely excited when a new kliksphilip video comes out! :D
Honestly I liked the Medieval 2 video better than the Rome one (although I did like both videos a great deal, don’t get me wrong!). I thought it was really funny and smart how your turned the terrible crashes into part of the story line, and persevered through said crashes (starting and stopping your video recording software, as well as all the time lost on the battles that resulted in crashes).
Keep doing what you do, and we’ll keep watching! :)
for a moment I thought it was an update video to Destruction Darius. No such luck.
These kinds of videos are my jam man, great job!
I'm always excited when I see that there's a new video from you Philip, you're doing a great job, keep it up! :-)
You are the only TH-camr that i watch the videos all the way through, you are such a good content creator.
You make some brilliant stuff. I haven't seen anyone dedicate themselves as much as you. Keep it up mate you are extremely entertaining. That medieval 2 video was amazing. All your videos seem enjoyable to me no matter the subject you always seem to make it interesting.
Philip I just want you to know your videos genuinely cheer me up ^^
i dont think i can be as happy as this video.. gold
The series is well made, that can’t be denied.
I want to mention this here, because I didn't on the actual video, I really liked the black and white poem section and think it was the best part of the video; it made me laugh out loud! And just to reiterate something you already know: you wouldn't have so many fans if you didn't try new things.
People comparing videos to previous ones are usually too ingrained into specific expectations: they want the exact same thing, but different, and never get anything they want, because it just can't exist. You can't just copy and paste the style and replace scenes from the new games. It just doesn't work like that, unless it's a
I own every total war game as I got them in a bundle for relitively cheap, and after playing 2 I found my self burn out. But watching your total war series got me back into the games a lot, currently I'm playing attila which is okay but I'm not a big fan of the 3 city's in a provence, my favourite has to be shogun 2 with a special mention to napoleon (which you should play and kick the French in).
Please make more of these, I enjoy your game play videos a lot.
to be honest i think your narrative is the think that's captured me, i can't speak for other people beyond the people i've shared your work, but it's unique yet using a logical formula for how videos should go, not to mention you're smart enough with old school TW games for me :)
Oh philip i'll watch anything you put out. Your silky smooth voice makes everything better.
Why should i not enjoy your videos. You put so much effort into your videos and your voice is the best.
I think, something that makes all of (" ", "2", "3")kliksphilips videos so special, that they nearly never seem to be the only reason for their own existence. Sometimes the videos seem to be an excuse to do something, no sane person would really do ( the "investigations" in cs go for example, but this also applies to more philosophical things). Sometimes they appear to be a vehicle to transport deeper thoughts on various things and/or to take the viewer on a journey...
There is always much more, than only the video.
If you want to learn, teach!
I don't think I've ever clicked on one of your videos saying, "man I sure hope this is just like the last one" (you know what I mean lol). I think I've always just had the assumption that whatever I was going to get when I clicked on the video was going to be good, I feel you're getting a good mix between new creative content and mentioning nostalgic bits of videos from the past. It's why we're subbed, just keep up the good work and content :)
Please finish Destruction Darius 2, I'd love to play it and see you finish or keep on going with your game making journey
PHILLIP! thanks for featuring me in your video, really made my day. Have a good one from a fellow Briton :)
I think you make good comment, and I understand your concern. I thoroughly enjoyed the Medieval 2 video, and I'm looking forward to the next segment.
personally, I just watch your content because its you and your personality. I haven't missed a video since you started that series on your adventures developing a video game... I thiiiiink that was 2016.... Loving all of it from all 3 channels... or 6 or something...
Thank you Philip! Because of your video I decided to download Medieval 2 Total War for the first time and I'm really enjoying the game so far! You're video was really enjoyable so It gave me interest in the game. Can't wait for the next sequel!
I don't leave comments for the creator often, because a lot of the time I think that they don't read them (which isn't against them or you, you aren't obligated and have other things to do).
I really like all of your stuff. I watch all of your channels, and even though I don't play cs for 3kliks, I still really enjoy all of it. Your content is great, just make what you want to make :)
Philip, you put way too much effort into these videos. the attention to all these little details, the stories you make up and how it all works as a story inside the game alongside with the journey of you creating these experiences. all of that with long forgotten franchises, reaching such a small audience. hell, I couldn't care less about most of your pointless videos.
and yet I keep going back. I feel happy whenever I see something new of yours appear. it's good to know that there are still people out there who make content not to reach the greatest ammount of people but to concentrate in one very specific thing and getting the fullest out of it.
you are a true artist and I am very thankful for all these hours you spend trying to reach perfection. you may never reach it, but especially in your case, the journey is more important than the destination.
I just watch it for your voice and awesome personality.
Every time you use this song it's a fantastic video. Ily.
love you phillip. I felt you were adressing me in this video too. In all the previous Total War videos of yours I commented something along the line " cant wait for your medieval 2 video since its my most favorite game". While I wasn't disappointed with it, the video is in a weird place. You tried to make it similar to the others of the same series with the music, intro, and so on while the game (unfortunately or not) became something completely different. It was all about Rufus and his struggle to win a match instead of conquering the french kingdom. Afterall I still enjoyed it and love the additional Making Of's of those. love ya!
BTW the songs: Duke of death and Crack Your Head With a Tabla are the best songs in all of TW + some of the prussian DLC
I think the series is great so far
Mate you have a big enough audience that it makes little sense to look to each of us individually. Love to ya brother
Hey kliksphilip, I know this is cheesy and all but I just wanted to thank you for being such a positive influence in my life. Even though I don't know you in reality, I've been watching you since I was a kid and I feel like I was watching you while you were still a kid as well. I've watched you have to deal with a lot of turmoil with you being as honest as you are, and it's taught me so much and I honestly couldn't be more thankful for it. You and your TH-cam videos have helped me become the person I want to be, and that's incredibly invaluable to me. I just wanted to let you know you're still kicking butt in case people haven't been telling you it enough, and that you are probably my favorite personal heroes and I draw a lot of inspiration from you.
Philip keep on what youre doing, its good!
I already see the word "voice" in the comments below the box I'm writing this in. Anyway: I do not compare your current video to any of those you uploaded before. I enjoy listening to your voice and hear what interesting/funny/absurd stuff you want to say. I find it entertaining and very fun to watch. I like the way you edit your videos. If you ever decide to make a video about how you eat a banana and describe the taste of it while using the iconic background music you usually use... .. I'm in.
Just do what makes you happy, that will weed out the community.
the mac one actually works really well
I would like to direct that last piece of advice straight at Valve.
at the end of the day i will forget every video i watch
It is always scary to think you may stray from a formula, but it may be beneficial to change so it doesn't seem like the same video.
That knight costume, i had exactly the same! And in my opd pictures i kinda look the same too! Nice vid as always!
I have watched this video while ironing my shirt before work. nice video
I've said it before, but I enjoy your self-evaluation Philip. It's something I don't think a lot of content creators do even in private. It feels good to get inside your head and understand the decisions your making.
I don't really see this series as being like Going Low despite the similar music cues and the callbacks. It's limited, for one. You're going to run out of games soon enough. Therefore it's best when you mix it up. I liked the flashback because it was a reference but no way would I want that as a motif.
I'd have to watch the video again but my only criticism was that it felt a little long. I like how you diversified the effects and reactions of the crashes and I didn't feel bored despite the repetitiveness of it.
2:40 the scream in the background as it hits the case made me laugh way more than it shouldve
When you overthink everything
4:55 Is that Peterscraps.
ooh
4:55 my man Bigg Jobag out there doing work for the ISP fanbase. Good on ya lad!
As other people have said I personally don't compare your videos to the other in the series, if it's a good video I'm happy with that and so far all of them have been.
You don't have to worry about stepping it up each episode of a series. Just keep it as same level as previous. People tune in for a series to have something to exspect like for example weekly
i rEALY like this series young man
I like Philips videos because he puts effort into them and mainly makes them because he wants to and is always about interesting topics or ideas but even more than that he's super transparent with his thought and processes and that makes him and everything he does interesting
I also like his little memes he puts in
Love you Philip ❤
Thanks
keep up the good work my man, I love the series so keep it up....for me ;)
Is the music in your videos your dads?
Yes.
here is all the stuff from him: soundcloud.com/steventhedreamer
Slender thanks
