My favourite thing about this video is how all of this crazy weirdness can exist, and yet go completely unmentioned by any of the characters, and a coherent story is still told from it. That's the kind of storytelling that walks the line between madness and genius.
The memories. Oh, the memoreis of days past. Staying up until 10 when I was younger and had a sleep schedule. Being comfused yet entertained and happy. I didn't miss my younger years, but this, and many other things, just makes me nostalgic. Thank you Lizr'd, for making my younger years happier.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that a Bioshock character is in a video that is made with a program that is specifically made for Valve related content.
It ain' easy to mahe a ten-minute story without any more dialoge that the occasional quip written to be yelled out in combat by a mercenary, and yet, here I am seeing this to the end. It's a bit confusing with the flash backs and flashforewards, so maybe in the future make those a bit more obvious with a sephia tone or blur the edges or something.
If this video were about double the length and with some actual voiceacting to flesh out what was happening, it could be an SFM masterpiece. The animation quality's there.
This is one of my favorite SFMs ever, and it's all because of the setting. I don't even know what it's supposed to be, either. A hotel? A museum? Both? Neither? I don't know, but it looks swanky and cozy as hell, and I love it to death for it.
I love how you used several game references all in one SFM. And the story was just magnificent, it truly was. This could be a nominee with a good chance at winning a Saxxy. 10/10.
8:52 when you are trying to play war thunder and you are about to get revenge on that typhoon and Elizabeth warps you into a chaotic mess... dont ya just hate that?
This is honestly the best SFM I have ever watched. The voice lines, the characters, the animation, the settings, the story, the effects, the use of different games I enjoy. Just. Amazing.
I think is was.. a little choppy, but it honestly grabbed me more than something like Live and Let Spy which is so straightforward. The plot is definitely the weakest part, but I love the use of characters. Also whenever I see a good use of voice lines, it really improves the SFM for me.
This definitely deserves more views than it currently has, great animations, great story line, cool and smooth actions. By far one of the best I've seen. Kudos to you!
I think I figured a possible plot. After messing around with the timeline in Bioshock 2 and the Rapture DLC, Elizabeth learns tu fully control her Timespace Manipulation Powers, and free of all his troubled past, decides to travel through dimensions. In a way she manages to appear in a place between all dimensions (That's why there are so many characters from different franchises), where everyone in someway knows that a Multiverse exists, but seems to not be able to travel, until Elizabeth shows up and with her powers help the TF2 Mercs to reach things not reachable normally. Her powers, sadly, evoke merasmus that tries to destroy them, but everyone combine their strengths to defeat him and his giant monster. After the ruckus, Elizabeth decides to stay with the TF2 Mercs and the Turret, to live new adventures with her new family. I hope I made Justice to this MASTERPIECE that I still watch with joy.
dude that was some seriously sleek animation, and nice work actually properly voicing elizabeth! loved it.shes my fav all time character in gaming and its awesome just seeing her around the internet and in good hands
If anyone is curious, the MAP used is based on a REAL PLACE in orlando florida. It was called the Adventurers Club, u know... before they closed it... but anyway, to all who cared to read this I hope u learned something new ^^. Also love this video
I love coming back to this video every now and again, the amazing map, animation and silly story, general vibe everything has is so fun it makes me wish we had some kind of valve related show like for tf2 or something
+the runesmith of death ikr, the storyline isnt as dark as before, i bet children who play with em want a darker storyline too, becuz the new one's too cheezy or idk
So the story behind this gem stone of a video is: There is an oasis villa home to the TF2 Cast and a family of singing turrets (and pet companion cube). They entertain, adventure and thrive in the (assume to be exclusive) villa that is under tight security. One peculiar guest is allowed in (I.e. Elizabeth) and befriends the child turret, they spend time in the oasis and meet the adventurer sniper who goes on expeditions to fund and fill the oasis with antique items, statues and more, also sharing in his finds with he locals, while distributing the riches he tosses a gold bar at the child turret and injured it aswell. Elizabeth notices a window and opens it up to repair him and everyone is amazed by her powers as she fixes the child turret and explains who she is and her powers. Meanwhile Sniper goes out again to find more riches and runs into a cursed artifact, the "Necrobombacon" and in turn summons Murazmus, there's a fight with the TF2 Gang, Elizabeth and Turret Child to defeat Murazmus and win.
I really love how you made my friend's map so lively and that you also made the characters interact with the objects within the map too. Very good animation and was defiantly worth watching, I sent brerben a link to this video just so he can see this masterpiece which was made on his map. :)
SouIEater676 man bionicle was my childhood, dont get me wrong hero factory is cool and fun to play with display and build, but that jolt after finishing that xl version of mata nui...
I love your sfm videos because they don't have the camera movement swerving around and the characters aren't constantly moving, it looks fluid and natural. well done.
Takua from Bionicle is in this video! O.O I'm still new to Portal and TF2. Do the Turrets walk in canon too? The Companion Cube walk animation was nicely done too. I saw someone mention an Elizabeth in the comments. Which game is she from? Is opening magical windows a special ability of hers? The story is a little bit confusing, but the animation looks nicely done. Kudos to you! ^_^
Normally, turrets do not walk in canon, no. And Elizabeth is a character from Bioshock Infinite. A special ability of hers is, indeed, to open portals anywhere.
Hompomto So she's almost like a magical, steampunk version of Chell? Fascinating. And she's teamed up with another character from a portal-related game. Very fitting. I haven't completely read up on Bioshock yet, though I will later. Thanks for telling me the name of the game. ^_^ So Turrets don't normally walk. What about the FrankenTurrets (Turret/Cube hybrids) I've seen in fan art?
TheStarryArcher1213 She's not anything like Chell... She can open windows to the past, for example, if there's a broken health kit machine, the player can tell Elizabeth to open a window on it for a health kit.
There is a story. The story is the fact that this has DOTA, TF2, Portal and Bioshocks elements all fit into a new universe. It doesn't need to make sense as it all forms into the fact that they found the bombinicon and now they need to get Sniper back from the beast. Then they get their riches and sail away. :)
It's a joke. Obviously Rest In Peace (RIP) already includes "In Peace". I remember a long time ago on /b/ someone posted an FB screenshot of someone making a status actually saying "RIP in peace" and being completely serious. That was the first time I'd seen it. I've seen people actually make that mistake a few times so I think it just sort of become an ongoing joke that started by poking fun at people who made that mistake.
My favourite thing about this video is how all of this crazy weirdness can exist, and yet go completely unmentioned by any of the characters, and a coherent story is still told from it. That's the kind of storytelling that walks the line between madness and genius.
even war thunder?
+Pizzaman4343 And Bioshock Infinite.
i like to think of it as a reference to the Origonal Mummy with Brandon Frasier. The book, Egyption pyramid, supernatural stuff
Even Battle of Britain
Madnass and genius go hand in hand my friend, so much so that they are pretty indistinguishable.
The memories. Oh, the memoreis of days past. Staying up until 10 when I was younger and had a sleep schedule. Being comfused yet entertained and happy. I didn't miss my younger years, but this, and many other things, just makes me nostalgic. Thank you Lizr'd, for making my younger years happier.

Lolo shit, it's unfair ;(
Maybe divide it into two parts? Each would be about 5 minutes. Part one and part two. =3
weegee991 I wholeheartedly concur!
*throws gold bars*
I have no idea what I just watched but the animation in this was flawless.
This is one of my favorite SFMs ever, and it's all because of the setting. I don't even know what it's supposed to be, either. A hotel? A museum? Both? Neither? I don't know, but it looks swanky and cozy as hell, and I love it to death for it.
I love how you used several game references all in one SFM. And the story was just magnificent, it truly was. This could be a nominee with a good chance at winning a Saxxy. 10/10.

Hey from 2023 I still watch this video from time to time
I think I figured a possible plot.

had to go back just to watch this masterpiece again. Cant believe its been 7 years
dude that was some seriously sleek animation, and nice work actually properly voicing elizabeth! loved it.shes my fav all time character in gaming and its awesome just seeing her around the internet and in good hands
2:10 medics hands on that gold bar is not normal.....
the location is where all valve characters meet and hangout.
***** well, i guess the people from bioshock must be visiting then.

how is this like Wreck-It Ralph?
Elitos Big-Boris Mainly the different video game characters meeting up outside their games. I didn't mean plotwise.
Exactly how is takua from bionicle a steam character

0:27 That little guy is Takua from Lego Bionicle in the first movie he transforms into the 7th Toa Takanuva the Toa of Light.
"TAAKUUUAAAA!?"
It's kind of grating
The terrible irony is i watched that movie be for this
This is honestly my favorite SFM video because of how warm and inviting it is.
This makes me feel nostalgic because I watched this so many years ago
Back after 5 years or so still pretty good.
Same here
Even though the plot was completely random, this was one of the best SFMs I have ever seen
The bad news: I don't know what the hell kind of story is this.
The good news: I don't care!
Best line: "TINY GUN." -Hoovy to Elizabeth

First time I saw this I was like "Ok, so girl can make wormholes and bring glowy-hats in. Cool?"
Then I played Bioshock Infinite.
