The uniqueness of this game was unmatched. There were many mistakes made which led to its downfall but it is truly a beautiful creation that doesn't deserve the path it has gone down. Gave me some of the best moments I've ever had as a gamer.
There's something that pulls the heart strings about any game when the plug is forced to be pulled. It feels as if you're forced to put down your pet of 10 years for medical reasons. especially having played this game in its peak, it really is the definition of a slept on masterpiece.
This games sucked and u can tell cuz ppl stoped playing, I quickly stoped playing this boring mess of a sht show, any game that adds bots is already a dead pos and needs to be gotten rid of quickly
Dude this actually hurt, such an incredible game that has a very high skill floor, not easy to get very good at quickly to most. Praying they re release
I only played this game a handful of times right before it died. I wish I would have been there during prime bc this game idea and mechanics have been my favorite I've ever seen. I really hope they do release!
@@romeda5156 if you had paddles on your Xbox controller it was waaaaaaaaaaaay easier, and if you’re on PC and have good general coordination you’d be fine. But it’s not welcoming for people who don’t pick up things as quickly, and can easily get frustrating. It’s not like going from call of duty to apex where it’s still a shooter, it’s a completely different experience that has entirely skillshots(no lock on abilities) which also makes it extremely difficult against decent players-but extremely rewarding when you win. Another reason I absolutely loved it.
This whole video was kinda heartbreaking. I've never even heard of Spellbreak, but it looked like a game me and my friends would have played for hours on end. The art style is beautiful and the gameplay looked so crisp and polished. Its disappointing that it ended the way it did.
i have played the game abit after launch and it felt like a masterpiece and even helped me with titanfall2 movement And its just sad how a game that has the potential to surpass one of the big three went downhill i bid Farewell
I never played a lot of Spellbreak, but it was a game I was interested into and I'm sad to hear that the servers are shutting down. The skill gap was high to get into, but design wise, it was such a refreshing experience when compared to all the battleground shooter games that exists out there.
This game and you specifically introduced me to the community I've grown to love. What happened to this game will always leave a bad taste in my mouth, but I'm forever grateful for the time I had with it and the friends I've made along the way. Thanks for the video, Marcus! Always a banger!
@@NapOfNaps that's why I'm also making really good ai to simulate that community in solo play. It's alot to explain but there will be so much the ai can do, it honestly might be better than multiplayer
Really well done video, Marcus. Thanks for putting your heart into the game just as much as so many of us on the Prole team did through the years. It crushed me to see how things were handled as well…heaps of potential that never hit the inflection point to stay ascending. I’m going to miss the community tremendously.
I never even knew a game this amazing existed. Thanks for popping up into my feed and letting me see this beauty of a game, at the least, in its final moments. I felt your emotions at the end and I wish the devs and you a good luck in your future endeavours! :>
I downloaded the game day 1 and played for a week with friends. Lost every single game to a team of dudes that could 360 no scope you from distances you could barely even see them... movement of a pc player was very obvious from day 1 as well. Game suffered massively from no skill based matchmaking and cross play being forced.
Although fun this video covers all the issues. I had a ton of fun playing and got a few friend's to play but even then if I died early we didn't win and none of us really liked battle royal type of games.
Damn, you were the guy I went to for tips when this game first came out. Sucks to see such a fun and unique game slowly die. Hopefully a spiritual successor will come out someday
The best BattleRoyale game that existed until today. I am very grateful to have been a part of this community. Thanks to all who enjoyed the game even in the last hours. If we ever get another game like Spellbreak like in the Alpha times we will see us there again...
@@gavo117 That's not always true. Look at Overwatch 2 and Team Fortress 2 for example. Overwatch has 1.5 out of 10 in metacritic while Team Fortress 2 has 9.0 out of 10 but I bet Overwatch 2 is still more popular. Good or not, advertising matters alot. Lol XD The problem with Spellbreak is that, it was more fun than Fortnite and Apex Legends in my opinion too but according to this video it sounded like Spellbreak didn't had enough good content update to keep people invested into the game, plus I bet being bought by Blizzard helped with that decision too, and I also thought Fortnite and Apex Legends had alot more advertising too sadly even during launch rather than it being older.
@@fidgetyjester2399 you are 100% right, I just heard of it because of this video. I really think I would enjoy it! Advertising is a big part of a succes nowadays
To be fair, I always thought giving you every element out of the gate was a great idea. Felt like choosing a starter Pokémon, except you get them all. Loved seeing what element newer players picked, and how their play-style took advantage of it. Unlocking elements could have helped your previous issue of “one good player dominating” since whoever has the “better” gauntlet could snowball easier into victory. Like imagine being stuck with fire or toxic, and someone can just use wind to climb a mountain to escape you, if you had no rune or talent to help your movement. May just be a wind player here trying to justify it’s insane movement potential. All in all, this game will be sorely missed. Only under a month left before it’s gone. Currently getting all trophies on PS as a sense of goodbye. It would be awesome if everyone came together to play for its last day!
I played Spellbreak from open beta to the very end. Watched you and Timmy the whole time. What's going to last even longer than the game is what you did for my enjoyment of it, putting a face to a community, a game and an experience that were really valuable to me. Thank you for everything!
You probably wont remember me, but when the game first released we actually ended up in a game together and I felt like I met a star that day xD. You rock man and this game does too. Its an honest shame the spellbreak chapter is ending but I also hope that one day it will be revived as it truly is a one of a kind game that just had issues on how to keep people entertained long term. Great video Marcus and keep doing what youre doing! :D - BLVNK
this game suffered from the same problems as Gigantic, two absolutely amazing games, and two heartbreaking losses to community i hope that maybe something similar comes out in the future
NO ONE REMEMBERS THAT GAME BUT I LOVED THE LIGHTNIG ASSASIN. Also the archer and the girl princess who's dad was her greatsword. That game had amazing character concepts
I played Spellbreak since the alpha and despite the fact I can't stand most battle royale games, this one was an absolute blast to play. This has been one of the very few shooter games I actually got invested in and put hours of my time into, and made some amazing memories doing so. It'll be very hard to find another game with this certain playstyle for sure. I think the thing that made me lose interest was the Dominion mode; what you said about it was spot-on. Spellbreak will still be an experience I'll never forget, and I'm glad I was able to experience it as long as it lasted. Hopefully Blizzard can somehow make it into a free archive game in the future but I doubt it :(
Spellbreak was one of those games that you tell your friends they had to try when it was in its prime. I was so upset to see it go. I supported the Devs as much as I could and loved every second of gameplay. Its truly a shame what happened to the game but at least I was able to find your channel thanks to the game and ive enjoyed keeping up with your content both on YT and Twitch.
Still playing it every now and then with friends and really sad to see it go. I will say I was super hype for the map updates to bogmore and banehelm, those were beautiful and I was so excited to see how the map was going to look once they upgraded all the areas. Really hope blizz does something with it or at least puts up servers again, but I know that's likely just copium like you said. Rip Spellbreak, you were one of a kind
You were THE Spellbreak player/content creator in my eyes. Great retrospective video on the game and cheers to the next great game that you find to make your own!
I absolutely loved this game, even though I started playing really really late. It was just, so FUN. I saw it was shutting down and was both shocked, annoyed and incredibly sad. I barely even played it, and was excited to play more, and then it was gone. Really disappointing to see such a great game shut down.
Man, I miss playing this game. If only they implemented some sort of offline practice BR mode where you could beat up on bots, at least we'd be able to experience the game mechanics when the servers are shutdown. =\ Definitely one of the most unique and fun 'shooter' experiences - one I don't know if we'll ever see again.
What a great video Marcus! It's heartbreaking to watch Spellbreak drift away over the horizon, but the years we did have were fantastic. Much love homie
I had the pleasure of being knock out by you more than once lol, and then at a later date playing on the same team. A lot of fun was had by me playing this game and even spent money on more than one outfit with the Brilstone Automation (The Robot) being my favorite. I will truly miss this game and find myself having the same thoughts, feeling etc that you had towards the end of your video. Too bad we can't have a giant party in the real world with all the people we played this game with in the virtual one. Perhaps this game will be brought back from the dead at some point; since we see that with games that are much older than this one. I will miss playing the robot among other things from the game. If Spellbreak is never brought back again may it R.I.P.; because either way I enjoyed the ride that was Sprellbreak . . .
Beautiful video, brother. To each and every person I've played Spellbreak with/against: I love you guys. By far the best community I've ever been a part of.
hey dude there is always overwatch but it is sad that a great game is gone and how i stumbled on you playing it one day got me to play it and love it may spellbrake rest in peace.
I just searched "spellbreak fail" cause i got curious what happened to the game I enjoyed playing for a good number of weeks when it launched. Your name looked so familiar then I realize I used to watch you for guides and tips. This game had so much potential and was so unique. Great video btw.
Starting on Sept 3 2020, I found your channel right away. You made me want to be a better Vowbreaker. This game helped me get past my depression during the pandemic. I will always be grateful for the developers creating an AMAZING game unlike no other, to you and many streamers for making me want to be a better player, to the community who've I've met so many amazing people that I still am in touch with. The decision to end developement of this game really hurts. It's a huge part of my gaming experience. I am a better player because of this game. Thank you Marcus and to every one who contributed to many, MANY, MANY hours running this game. :(
It's a shame to see SPELLBREAK dead, I hope the game comes back someday. But for you Markus, HOLY SHIT!!! this video is amazing, pls bring more review tipe content like that talking about other games and franchises you really have the talent for it
you sir, are the reason I started playing this game and I can say without a dought it was one of my most favorite style games of all time! once the player base crashed and it took 1 hour to get into a match I sadly had to quit. I think the failure of this game was mostly due to the time frame of its existance. Hopefully one day this game can come back and become the game it was suppose to be!!
Absolutely LOVED Spellbreak! Was my favorite of all of the battle royale style games. Went to introduce my friends to it 2 months ago, played one match (all bots) won, and then spent 15 minutes queuing and never found another match.. so upsetting to only just then realize the player count had plummeted and I had lost my opportunity to enjoy the game more before its death.
honestly just now getting to watching this video because its hard to relive the downfall of the game I made most of my friends through and have so many fond and (also not fond lol) memories of started grinding this game at a low point in my life in mid to late 2018 and it means a lot to me, thanks for making this video man
Great video Marcus! Im definitely going to miss playing with all the homies, playing scrims, and playing those tourneys and qualifiers. This was the first game I actually became good at to the point of being recognized. Goodluck in all you do Marcus
Really well made Marcus, summarized everything perfectly. Thanks for the fun battles back in the day and I hope we can all find something we'll have similar passion for in the future
Love the video and I couldn’t agree more with everything you said! I miss the game, your legendary gameplay videos of it, and still have yet to find another game similar to it. I too hope they bring it back in one way or another. Thank you again for your video and bringing back enjoyable memories of it! 😢💯
I feel you 😭 It sucks when you find a gem like this... a game with so much potential and unlike anything else at the moment just to see it fail... I have a similar experience with a game called Super Mecha Champions. I love that game with all my heart but it has a lot of issues (perfomance) that deters most players. But if you manage to push through it's really an amazing game and I've never had an experience quite like it. I know that it will fail as well one day and it makes me really sad but until then I will enjoy and after the fact I will always carry it in my heart 😭😭😭😭💔💔
We all feel your pain and heartache, this was one of the first games that i every played religiously, and i cried when it was shutting down and i just fucking wish that blizzard would do something to the game. RIP to one of the best hidden gems in the world. RIP Spellbreak: 2020-2023
Spell break was one of my favorite games and hearing that is was being discontinued hurt a lot. Blizzard I hope that you can bring the game back up in some way and give the world the spell break we all love
i doubt it sadly, the devs they bought up from spellbreak are going to work on wow... so they traded a new unique game for more wow resources what a waste. fuck wow.
i remember playing this game when it first released, just messing around in the practice range, although never playing it much after. Crazy to see a game become so good looking and fun while watching a video about how its shutting down
This game was gorgeous and fascinating, I looked forward to getting involved with it. It's a tragedy I missed out on such a creative endeavour with so much potential, it truly deserved to last. The mechanics were reminiscent of Fable Three's sorcery, for me; my favourite aspect of that title; what a thrill to see what this game had to offer. Here's to hopes of a resurgence.
Great video, I can see how it impacted you with the game dying. Just knows all things come to an end and this gives you ample opportunity to start a new journey somewhere else. I had the same feeling with TERA. One of the first MMO's I really lived for. Much respect for having the courage to show your feelings.
It really is surreal to even scroll through these comments and read all of the comments of friends and teammates that this game brought to us. Whether I'm remembered as Brett or Mavv these players really brought the best gaming years of my life so far and I found them all through your stream Marcus, much love as always
I learned about this game from Marcus back in the beta i think. I subbed to him on TH-cam, tuned into a lot of streams. Game was so amazing; really made you feel like badass to say the least. It kind of upset me that Marcus didn't mention the class: Stoneshaper. Lots of people at the time said that it was the most broken class in the game, but I felt that it was very balanced. It would gain shields (up to a limit) upon hitting an enemy, and it would do very good damage. The cost of using the gauntlet though, would be that you could only hit people on the ground, so being in a game where players were in the sky constantly, it was a class of punishing, not engaging. The ability it came with was a boulder you could throw that would increase in size and damage based on travel time, and being able to slam to the ground faster than other classes made this element really unique. I always loved combining the Stoneshaper Gauntlet with fire or ice. Being able to lob a giant flaming meteor at the enemy that would explode and ignite players, or a frozen rock that would freeze players upon hitting them. It was so much fun... The main attack for this gauntlet, as said before, would be a shockwave that would travel forward on the ground, this could also be ignited by the fire gauntlet or do major damage to frozen targets. I was devastated to hear Spellbreak had to close down, but nonetheless I enjoyed my time playing the game, one of my top ten game of all time, and my favorite battle royale. sorry for the rant, but thank you for reading
This makes me so sad to hear that Spellbreak is done, i remember playing the lauch version and having so much fun with spell type fights, i tried playing 2 months ago (or so) and could get a game, i waited for 15-30 min until i got tired and uninstalled it, Rip Spellbreak.
One of the greatest games of all time, and an absolute tragedy that it won't be playable anymore. I pray that there will be either private servers or another iteration of the game in the future. R I P
Truthfully a wonderful game during alpha it was so cool to see it evolve and grow the way it did, and of course I cherish every moment I had with the game, but I think the real crux of the game was in fact the epic exclusive, and what you mentioned in movement , compared to the early versions of the game it still does feel like moving in molasses I hope another game can come and do what spellbreak did or maybe even the revival of spellbreak, but I can only dream
i used to play this game when it first released and i never didnt have fun but somewhere along the line my attention was taken somewhere else and i only recently (sometime in november) remembered it existed and i opened up the game to see the notice that it was shutting down. i tried queuing for a game but it was taking over 20 min so i gave up. i miss how the game felt to play and how unique it was. we need more games like spellbreak
This video right here and your reaction at the end, is why I hate that people say "dead game" at everything that's not top 10 games. They have never experienced true death of a game where it is shut down and abandoned. It is a soul crushing horrible feeling and I hate that it's being downplayed. I'm sorry the game died man at least you enjoyed it while it was there
I feel like this game has massive single player potential. Gives terraria vibes for sure. Imagine working your way up to fighting a boss like the cultist? Absolutely stunning visuals and incredible movement. I would buy that in a heartbeat
@@aleccarlson492 with the spell slinging and the dashes and such. The characters abilities in this game remind me of terraria characters right before hard mode. Like multiple jumps, and different types of jumps at that, switching spells, spells that specialize in AOE damage vs single target
I uh... Resonate with this video a lot... I'll always remember pre-eoc runescape. Even when they "revived" it, and made osrs, it just wasn't the same. I feel for you man, and the news I'll give you now, will suck, but also be awesome. You'll always remember how much joy the game brought you, always :) so don't let the sadness of it keep you down
Somehow Spellbreak flew over my head. Didn't even know it was there. Looks great, like it could port well to consoles too. Wishing you the well moving forward, perhaps this video may steer people into trying it. That click moment was a nice touch btw
Sad to hear bro :( i learned everything from you btw i was rockin that wind frost combo everygame its satisfaying to hit long range shots which was your best ever everytime i used to watch you live killing the whole lobby man you were amazing at that game but good luck in the future ❤
This saddens me... My friends and I picked up the game on release and played it every few months, and then as quarantine ended we couldn't play often. We played again for the first time in a while and my pal and I decided to play Spellbreak until the others joined the call we saw the closing message and paused. For a good 5 minutes, we just sat and stared. I can't speak for my friend obviously but it kinda confirmed my biggest fears that as we grow older we'll only get more distant since we can no longer find time to game. I've been playing with these guys since I was 9 and this game while it wasn't our favourite it was big enough to leave a lasting effect on me. I can't play any other battle royale for longer than 30mins without thinking about Spellbreak giving me more freedom and making me actually think about what I'm doing. It sucks... This game was great, flawed, but great. Hopefully, Blizzard listens to you and does something with this IP but I don't know if I trust Blizzard with Spellbreak, especially after Overwatch 2.
fun fact, spell break started as an idea i always thought was neat: battle royale, but with swords, bows, and magic instead of guns and grenades. over time, apparently the magic system was the most fun to use, so they dropped the swords, bows, spears etc. and focused on the magic system.
I never got into Spellbreak because at the time of its release it was "Just another battle royale" to me. I had gotten so burnt out by the genre's over saturation that if a game was a BR I just straight up didn't care about it. Looking back at the game and also giving this video a look made me realize that viewpoint wasn't really fair. You're absolutely right that there will likely never be another game like Spellbreak, and I do regret not giving it a shot...
I made a lot of friends on spellbreak but I had to take a long break for college and when I got a ps5 I got the bad news about the game :( I will probably never see those people again but it was really fun ❤️ o7
Never played this game, but as a gamer I feel ya bro. It´s ever sad lose your universe that you have shared emotions, momments, friends and laughs online. I miss Defiance, Riders of Icarus, Gigantic and some other amazing experiences as well. Nice video.
I've never heard of this game, or you. This popped up in my timeline, and I figured I'd give it a shot. Now I'm sad, like my favorite game got shut down... wish I had found you sooner, the game sounded good
Hey Marcus, thanks for sharing this tribute to Spellbreak. It was such a pleasure to play, and it will always hold a special place in my heart. Your video captured the essence of the game perfectly and brought back fond memories for me. I appreciate the effort you put into giving it a fitting sendoff. Keep up the good work!
This game was an absolute gem!!❤️ I’ve been playing since launch and as someone who’s a big nerd for magic, powers, mages, & things of that nature this game has always wowed me for its concept and how well they were able to nail it!! It deserved/deserves SO much better. I REALLY hope this game makes a resurgence and it’s backed by ppl who know how to run a good battle royale. The concept of battle mages with elemental magic powers in a battle royale is just TOO good of a concept and the gameplay was SO clean. Here’s to hoping if it’s not revived SOMEONE will pick up this concept and expand upon it further and give us cool designs, more magic, and cooler maps. #RIPSPELLBREAK💖
Hey!..I remember you!..From the vids on Spellbreak official channel...Good to see your own channel have grown up... And the game died...Damn...I've never played it after release...Always thought:"I'll play some other day..." Well...Guess there won't be any "other day" anymore...Feels bad man... But,hey...Even Paragon got revived recently...So,maybe...
I was an early adopter like you, and I remember that after I took a break from the game with my brother, optimization and MM was what killed it for us. At some point, my brother couldn't run the game so smoothly and so do I and combining it with the lack of match making, meant that after a short time we said let's wait till they fix the optimization. Then we came back to a game that ran better but empty lobbies. I was also hoping that I will be able to grow as a creator but because of IRL stuff couldn't make it a reality. I really wanted this game to succeed T.T. Also because the game was so long in public beta contributed to this issue.
Feels like deja vu man. Ever heard of “Magicka: Wizard Wars”? That was the high skill ceiling, element based combat game I got into during alpha and the mourned when it was taken offline only a year or two after launch. Definitely feel where you’re coming from. It was a special time, and some of my first ever competitive multiplayer experiences were in that game. I still remember the handles of some clan mates who I never met in person, just because of the memories we shared chatting on Teamspeak while we practiced dueling, or experimenting with combos in the game to help shape the meta. Here’s to you Jensen, Argotha, Trance, Shark_in_a_Box, and Neon, and many more! RIP MWW
This broke my heart.I’m on ps5 and I was watching my old clips,my wins,my losses, funny moments, cool moments, and this is what the game has become into
I have not been a gamer since StarCraft: Brood War days. My brother had a lot to do with Spellbreak and it saddened me when it got killed (needless to say a thing about the acquisitions and their outcomes…!). Anyway, nice to see some Spellbreak post-mortem love.
I played SpellBreak for a while and really enjoyed it but I also felt like the lack of proper new content and mmr based matchmaking was the downfall. I remember my first match was played in duos and both my teammate and I died in mere seconds without even seeing who hit us, it was disheartening to say the least and the idea that I tried to jump in several times over the course of 6 months or so and nothing ever changed was another hit to my desire to play
This is why playing some games is really hard cause we invest so much time into it. Just for it to close sometime down the road and it's like that time was wasted somewhat, also if the player is a cash shopper that likes to buy mounts/skins you just wasted a lot of money. This is especially true for mmorpg games. I myself had over 500 hours in spellbreak and was also sad to see it was closing.
It's really weird, because everyone I talked to about this had the same situation as me and my friends did: It came out on steam, we played it, we loved it. We never played it again. After Like 3 days of playing it, never boot it up again. No idea why, it was fun, we all loved it, but just stopped playing and forgot about it.
it is sad to have something that impacted your life pulled away by things out of your control. I hope your able to find something to bring you the joy that this game and community provided. whether that is with a new game or hobby, or perhaps an existing part of your life that you might find is worth more or your attention. good luck going forward.
well you're the only one that I watched and knew when I first playing SpellBreak. I'm very surprised to know that it is about to come down. Hope you find another game to make content in the future like Sea of Thieves
Used to play this a lot with friends along with fortnite back then but the lack of content and players made us completely stop one of the most unique games ever fr
The most charming thing about spellbreak in its early days was the feel of the magic. I truly felt like a novis mage. It was challenging and required a bit of practice. Thats magic in a nutshell.
I think one of the biggest reasons that this game died was that there was almost no advertising. Just like Titanfall 2 the game had so much potential but with such a lack of publicity no wonder people didn’t play. My other problem with it was it’s lack of true progression. I’m sad to see this game go, I still loved it as one of the most unique games I’ve ever played.

The uniqueness of this game was unmatched. There were many mistakes made which led to its downfall but it is truly a beautiful creation that doesn't deserve the path it has gone down. Gave me some of the best moments I've ever had as a gamer.

There's something that pulls the heart strings about any game when the plug is forced to be pulled. It feels as if you're forced to put down your pet of 10 years for medical reasons. especially having played this game in its peak, it really is the definition of a slept on masterpiece.
agree
I just barely missed it’s peak, I loved it’s gameplay but just couldn’t compete with the opponents after a month or 2
Oh and que times sucked
They should open the server infrastructure so the community doesn’t let it die 💀
This games sucked and u can tell cuz ppl stoped playing, I quickly stoped playing this boring mess of a sht show, any game that adds bots is already a dead pos and needs to be gotten rid of quickly
Dude this actually hurt, such an incredible game that has a very high skill floor, not easy to get very good at quickly to most. Praying they re release
They need to re-release with 3 new elements and fix game bugs
I only played this game a handful of times right before it died. I wish I would have been there during prime bc this game idea and mechanics have been my favorite I've ever seen. I really hope they do release!
Idk my guy I suck at most BR’s like really bad but this game seemed really easy right from the start to me. I Won like 7 of my first 10 games.
@@romeda5156 if you had paddles on your Xbox controller it was waaaaaaaaaaaay easier, and if you’re on PC and have good general coordination you’d be fine. But it’s not welcoming for people who don’t pick up things as quickly, and can easily get frustrating. It’s not like going from call of duty to apex where it’s still a shooter, it’s a completely different experience that has entirely skillshots(no lock on abilities) which also makes it extremely difficult against decent players-but extremely rewarding when you win. Another reason I absolutely loved it.
Very high skill ceiling *
This whole video was kinda heartbreaking. I've never even heard of Spellbreak, but it looked like a game me and my friends would have played for hours on end. The art style is beautiful and the gameplay looked so crisp and polished. Its disappointing that it ended the way it did.
Same filings here
Same
i have played the game abit after launch and it felt like a masterpiece and even helped me with titanfall2 movement
And its just sad how a game that has the potential to surpass one of the big three went downhill
i bid Farewell
It's fucking awsome what happened
yeah, i just found out about this and it looks so fun, kinda sad to see it go before it got to really live
I never played a lot of Spellbreak, but it was a game I was interested into and I'm sad to hear that the servers are shutting down. The skill gap was high to get into, but design wise, it was such a refreshing experience when compared to all the battleground shooter games that exists out there.
This game and you specifically introduced me to the community I've grown to love. What happened to this game will always leave a bad taste in my mouth, but I'm forever grateful for the time I had with it and the friends I've made along the way. Thanks for the video, Marcus! Always a banger!

Really well done video, Marcus. Thanks for putting your heart into the game just as much as so many of us on the Prole team did through the years. It crushed me to see how things were handled as well…heaps of potential that never hit the inflection point to stay ascending. I’m going to miss the community tremendously.
Game made by communists died? No way how can this be?
@@arkgaharandan5881 not sure you can accurately call a profit-oriented company communist, but I suppose you think you did.

It's the first video of yours I've seen, but damn man you can feel the passion and love you had for the game and the ending literally made me tear up
I never even knew a game this amazing existed. Thanks for popping up into my feed and letting me see this beauty of a game, at the least, in its final moments. I felt your emotions at the end and I wish the devs and you a good luck in your future endeavours! :>
I downloaded the game day 1 and played for a week with friends. Lost every single game to a team of dudes that could 360 no scope you from distances you could barely even see them... movement of a pc player was very obvious from day 1 as well. Game suffered massively from no skill based matchmaking and cross play being forced.
@@davidedds6562 had the alpha skin and everything I remember the alpha build of this game was bosssss
@@miguelcuevas7224 too bad the alpha players were the only players who enjoyed the game 🤣
feel this, never heard of the game but it actually looks pretty cool, shame its already dead
Although fun this video covers all the issues. I had a ton of fun playing and got a few friend's to play but even then if I died early we didn't win and none of us really liked battle royal type of games.
I alpha tested this game and I really thought it was going to last. It's sad to see that it isn't. It is a very unique game and I'm sad to see it go.
Damn, you were the guy I went to for tips when this game first came out. Sucks to see such a fun and unique game slowly die. Hopefully a spiritual successor will come out someday
Some day

Hopefully in a different genre! Fuck battle royales.
@@ZiggityZeke true. I did have a lot more fun when they introduced teams.
The best BattleRoyale game that existed until today. I am very grateful to have been a part of this community. Thanks to all who enjoyed the game even in the last hours. If we ever get another game like Spellbreak like in the Alpha times we will see us there again...
Lol. If it was the best it wouldn't be shutting down....
@@gavo117 lol actual fkn dog.
@@gavo117 That's not always true. Look at Overwatch 2 and Team Fortress 2 for example. Overwatch has 1.5 out of 10 in metacritic while Team Fortress 2 has 9.0 out of 10 but I bet Overwatch 2 is still more popular. Good or not, advertising matters alot. Lol XD
The problem with Spellbreak is that, it was more fun than Fortnite and Apex Legends in my opinion too but according to this video it sounded like Spellbreak didn't had enough good content update to keep people invested into the game, plus I bet being bought by Blizzard helped with that decision too, and I also thought Fortnite and Apex Legends had alot more advertising too sadly even during launch rather than it being older.
Spell break shits on any other battle royale 💯
@@fidgetyjester2399 you are 100% right, I just heard of it because of this video. I really think I would enjoy it! Advertising is a big part of a succes nowadays
To be fair, I always thought giving you every element out of the gate was a great idea. Felt like choosing a starter Pokémon, except you get them all.
Loved seeing what element newer players picked, and how their play-style took advantage of it.
Unlocking elements could have helped your previous issue of “one good player dominating” since whoever has the “better” gauntlet could snowball easier into victory.
Like imagine being stuck with fire or toxic, and someone can just use wind to climb a mountain to escape you, if you had no rune or talent to help your movement. May just be a wind player here trying to justify it’s insane movement potential.
All in all, this game will be sorely missed. Only under a month left before it’s gone. Currently getting all trophies on PS as a sense of goodbye. It would be awesome if everyone came together to play for its last day!
I played Spellbreak from open beta to the very end. Watched you and Timmy the whole time. What's going to last even longer than the game is what you did for my enjoyment of it, putting a face to a community, a game and an experience that were really valuable to me. Thank you for everything!
You probably wont remember me, but when the game first released we actually ended up in a game together and I felt like I met a star that day xD. You rock man and this game does too. Its an honest shame the spellbreak chapter is ending but I also hope that one day it will be revived as it truly is a one of a kind game that just had issues on how to keep people entertained long term. Great video Marcus and keep doing what youre doing! :D - BLVNK
I'd love to see them make a mmo similar to this game.
That would be sick (In a cool way).
Would be really cool, I really like this combat system it could work really well on a mmo
Yes
roark's attack on titan fan game
Tribes: Ascend was pretty similar in mechanics even if not setting.
this game suffered from the same problems as Gigantic, two absolutely amazing games, and two heartbreaking losses to community i hope that maybe something similar comes out in the future
NO ONE REMEMBERS THAT GAME BUT I LOVED THE LIGHTNIG ASSASIN. Also the archer and the girl princess who's dad was her greatsword. That game had amazing character concepts
Gigantic was dope ngl easiest top 5 game for me.
I played Spellbreak since the alpha and despite the fact I can't stand most battle royale games, this one was an absolute blast to play. This has been one of the very few shooter games I actually got invested in and put hours of my time into, and made some amazing memories doing so. It'll be very hard to find another game with this certain playstyle for sure. I think the thing that made me lose interest was the Dominion mode; what you said about it was spot-on. Spellbreak will still be an experience I'll never forget, and I'm glad I was able to experience it as long as it lasted. Hopefully Blizzard can somehow make it into a free archive game in the future but I doubt it :(
Spellbreak was one of those games that you tell your friends they had to try when it was in its prime. I was so upset to see it go. I supported the Devs as much as I could and loved every second of gameplay. Its truly a shame what happened to the game but at least I was able to find your channel thanks to the game and ive enjoyed keeping up with your content both on YT and Twitch.
@username a hidden and forgotten gem
Still playing it every now and then with friends and really sad to see it go. I will say I was super hype for the map updates to bogmore and banehelm, those were beautiful and I was so excited to see how the map was going to look once they upgraded all the areas.
Really hope blizz does something with it or at least puts up servers again, but I know that's likely just copium like you said.
Rip Spellbreak, you were one of a kind
dwerkie?
this game remind me of phantom dust
You were THE Spellbreak player/content creator in my eyes. Great retrospective video on the game and cheers to the next great game that you find to make your own!
He wasnt all that good. Get his 🐓 out your mouth
I absolutely loved this game, even though I started playing really really late. It was just, so FUN. I saw it was shutting down and was both shocked, annoyed and incredibly sad. I barely even played it, and was excited to play more, and then it was gone. Really disappointing to see such a great game shut down.
i didnt play this game and i dont even know this exist...but everytime i see videos about games shutting down, i kinda feel emotional
Rip, great video man.
Man, I miss playing this game. If only they implemented some sort of offline practice BR mode where you could beat up on bots, at least we'd be able to experience the game mechanics when the servers are shutdown. =\ Definitely one of the most unique and fun 'shooter' experiences - one I don't know if we'll ever see again.
Or just allow the hosting of private servers
@@narojdebeste world of Warcraft has private servers so im sure spellbreak could. Someone would just need to find all the code
@@growingoaks "just find all the code"
What a great video Marcus! It's heartbreaking to watch Spellbreak drift away over the horizon, but the years we did have were fantastic. Much love homie
Been here since the M40A3 Disciple days, cool to see you still making videos man
I had the pleasure of being knock out by you more than once lol, and then at a later date playing on the same team. A lot of fun was had by me playing this game and even spent money on more than one outfit with the Brilstone Automation (The Robot) being my favorite. I will truly miss this game and find myself having the same thoughts, feeling etc that you had towards the end of your video. Too bad we can't have a giant party in the real world with all the people we played this game with in the virtual one. Perhaps this game will be brought back from the dead at some point; since we see that with games that are much older than this one. I will miss playing the robot among other things from the game. If Spellbreak is never brought back again may it R.I.P.; because either way I enjoyed the ride that was Sprellbreak . . .
Extremely well done, Im so glad Spellbreak brought us together
Beautiful video, brother. To each and every person I've played Spellbreak with/against: I love you guys. By far the best community I've ever been a part of.
SLAYERRRR
@@thuggycharms7758 Can't wait to do that again lol
SB really was the best. Weird to say, but I reckon Dec 2018 - July 2021 was a major high point in my life
The highest of points in mine, for sure.
hey dude there is always overwatch but it is sad that a great game is gone and how i stumbled on you playing it one day got me to play it and love it may spellbrake rest in peace.
I just searched "spellbreak fail" cause i got curious what happened to the game I enjoyed playing for a good number of weeks when it launched. Your name looked so familiar then I realize I used to watch you for guides and tips. This game had so much potential and was so unique. Great video btw.
Starting on Sept 3 2020, I found your channel right away. You made me want to be a better Vowbreaker. This game helped me get past my depression during the pandemic. I will always be grateful for the developers creating an AMAZING game unlike no other, to you and many streamers for making me want to be a better player, to the community who've I've met so many amazing people that I still am in touch with. The decision to end developement of this game really hurts. It's a huge part of my gaming experience. I am a better player because of this game. Thank you Marcus and to every one who contributed to many, MANY, MANY hours running this game. :(
Try tarkov.
You need to try fortnite
It's a shame to see SPELLBREAK dead, I hope the game comes back someday. But for you Markus, HOLY SHIT!!! this video is amazing, pls bring more review tipe content like that talking about other games and franchises you really have the talent for it
you sir, are the reason I started playing this game and I can say without a dought it was one of my most favorite style games of all time! once the player base crashed and it took 1 hour to get into a match I sadly had to quit. I think the failure of this game was mostly due to the time frame of its existance. Hopefully one day this game can come back and become the game it was suppose to be!!
Absolutely LOVED Spellbreak! Was my favorite of all of the battle royale style games. Went to introduce my friends to it 2 months ago, played one match (all bots) won, and then spent 15 minutes queuing and never found another match.. so upsetting to only just then realize the player count had plummeted and I had lost my opportunity to enjoy the game more before its death.
honestly just now getting to watching this video because its hard to relive the downfall of the game I made most of my friends through and have so many fond and (also not fond lol) memories of
started grinding this game at a low point in my life in mid to late 2018 and it means a lot to me, thanks for making this video man
Great video Marcus! Im definitely going to miss playing with all the homies, playing scrims, and playing those tourneys and qualifiers. This was the first game I actually became good at to the point of being recognized. Goodluck in all you do Marcus
Really well made Marcus, summarized everything perfectly. Thanks for the fun battles back in the day and I hope we can all find something we'll have similar passion for in the future
Love the video and I couldn’t agree more with everything you said! I miss the game, your legendary gameplay videos of it, and still have yet to find another game similar to it. I too hope they bring it back in one way or another. Thank you again for your video and bringing back enjoyable memories of it! 😢💯
I feel you 😭 It sucks when you find a gem like this... a game with so much potential and unlike anything else at the moment just to see it fail... I have a similar experience with a game called Super Mecha Champions. I love that game with all my heart but it has a lot of issues (perfomance) that deters most players. But if you manage to push through it's really an amazing game and I've never had an experience quite like it. I know that it will fail as well one day and it makes me really sad but until then I will enjoy and after the fact I will always carry it in my heart 😭😭😭😭💔💔
We all feel your pain and heartache, this was one of the first games that i every played religiously, and i cried when it was shutting down and i just fucking wish that blizzard would do something to the game. RIP to one of the best hidden gems in the world. RIP Spellbreak: 2020-2023
I think you're going to do great things wherever you go man or whatever game you gear your content towards next! goodluck!
Spell break was one of my favorite games and hearing that is was being discontinued hurt a lot. Blizzard I hope that you can bring the game back up in some way and give the world the spell break we all love
i doubt it sadly, the devs they bought up from spellbreak are going to work on wow...
so they traded a new unique game for more wow resources what a waste. fuck wow.
Great video and a proper farewell to one of the best games ever. Thank you Markus and thank you to the great community that kept the game alive.
i remember playing this game when it first released, just messing around in the practice range, although never playing it much after. Crazy to see a game become so good looking and fun while watching a video about how its shutting down
This game was gorgeous and fascinating, I looked forward to getting involved with it. It's a tragedy I missed out on such a creative endeavour with so much potential, it truly deserved to last.
The mechanics were reminiscent of Fable Three's sorcery, for me; my favourite aspect of that title; what a thrill to see what this game had to offer. Here's to hopes of a resurgence.
Great video. It’s sad to see SB leave, but I’m hoping it comes back under the Blizzard umbrella.
Great video, I can see how it impacted you with the game dying. Just knows all things come to an end and this gives you ample opportunity to start a new journey somewhere else. I had the same feeling with TERA. One of the first MMO's I really lived for. Much respect for having the courage to show your feelings.
It really is surreal to even scroll through these comments and read all of the comments of friends and teammates that this game brought to us.
Whether I'm remembered as Brett or Mavv these players really brought the best gaming years of my life so far and I found them all through your stream Marcus, much love as always
I learned about this game from Marcus back in the beta i think. I subbed to him on TH-cam, tuned into a lot of streams. Game was so amazing; really made you feel like badass to say the least. It kind of upset me that Marcus didn't mention the class: Stoneshaper. Lots of people at the time said that it was the most broken class in the game, but I felt that it was very balanced.
It would gain shields (up to a limit) upon hitting an enemy, and it would do very good damage. The cost of using the gauntlet though, would be that you could only hit people on the ground, so being in a game where players were in the sky constantly, it was a class of punishing, not engaging. The ability it came with was a boulder you could throw that would increase in size and damage based on travel time, and being able to slam to the ground faster than other classes made this element really unique.
I always loved combining the Stoneshaper Gauntlet with fire or ice.
Being able to lob a giant flaming meteor at the enemy that would explode and ignite players, or a frozen rock that would freeze players upon hitting them. It was so much fun...
The main attack for this gauntlet, as said before, would be a shockwave that would travel forward on the ground, this could also be ignited by the fire gauntlet or do major damage to frozen targets.
I was devastated to hear Spellbreak had to close down, but nonetheless I enjoyed my time playing the game, one of my top ten game of all time, and my favorite battle royale.
sorry for the rant, but thank you for reading
This makes me so sad to hear that Spellbreak is done, i remember playing the lauch version and having so much fun with spell type fights, i tried playing 2 months ago (or so) and could get a game, i waited for 15-30 min until i got tired and uninstalled it, Rip Spellbreak.
One of the greatest games of all time, and an absolute tragedy that it won't be playable anymore. I pray that there will be either private servers or another iteration of the game in the future. R I P
Truthfully a wonderful game during alpha it was so cool to see it evolve and grow the way it did, and of course I cherish every moment I had with the game, but I think the real crux of the game was in fact the epic exclusive, and what you mentioned in movement , compared to the early versions of the game it still does feel like moving in molasses I hope another game can come and do what spellbreak did or maybe even the revival of spellbreak, but I can only dream
The only similar movement to this is warframe, but they abandoned their pvp and players dont care either. Its a pve game with a failed PvP experiment.
This game and its community will forever hold a place in my heart.
i used to play this game when it first released and i never didnt have fun but somewhere along the line my attention was taken somewhere else and i only recently (sometime in november) remembered it existed and i opened up the game to see the notice that it was shutting down. i tried queuing for a game but it was taking over 20 min so i gave up. i miss how the game felt to play and how unique it was. we need more games like spellbreak
This video right here and your reaction at the end, is why I hate that people say "dead game" at everything that's not top 10 games. They have never experienced true death of a game where it is shut down and abandoned. It is a soul crushing horrible feeling and I hate that it's being downplayed. I'm sorry the game died man at least you enjoyed it while it was there
Really wanted this one to succeed. Rip. Hopefully we get something this fun and unique again soon.
Perfect Video.
I feel like this game has massive single player potential. Gives terraria vibes for sure. Imagine working your way up to fighting a boss like the cultist? Absolutely stunning visuals and incredible movement. I would buy that in a heartbeat
terraria vibes? how so
@@aleccarlson492 with the spell slinging and the dashes and such.
The characters abilities in this game remind me of terraria characters right before hard mode. Like multiple jumps, and different types of jumps at that, switching spells, spells that specialize in AOE damage vs single target
Spellbreak had a place in my heart, thought I stopped playing for the reasons you mentioned. I hope that it comes back better than ever.
I uh... Resonate with this video a lot... I'll always remember pre-eoc runescape. Even when they "revived" it, and made osrs, it just wasn't the same. I feel for you man, and the news I'll give you now, will suck, but also be awesome. You'll always remember how much joy the game brought you, always :) so don't let the sadness of it keep you down
❤
Somehow Spellbreak flew over my head. Didn't even know it was there. Looks great, like it could port well to consoles too.
Wishing you the well moving forward, perhaps this video may steer people into trying it. That click moment was a nice touch btw
Sadge. I Started tearing up at the end with you brother. Congrats on the success. I have a feeling blizz will do something idk why.
One issue with the game was that there was barely any advertisement. Without that, they weren’t pulling in enough new players to keep it going.
Sad to hear bro :( i learned everything from you btw i was rockin that wind frost combo everygame its satisfaying to hit long range shots which was your best ever everytime i used to watch you live killing the whole lobby man you were amazing at that game but good luck in the future ❤
I miss this game so much bro. I remember laughing and giggling with my friends when we first played this when it first blew up.
This saddens me... My friends and I picked up the game on release and played it every few months, and then as quarantine ended we couldn't play often. We played again for the first time in a while and my pal and I decided to play Spellbreak until the others joined the call we saw the closing message and paused.
For a good 5 minutes, we just sat and stared. I can't speak for my friend obviously but it kinda confirmed my biggest fears that as we grow older we'll only get more distant since we can no longer find time to game. I've been playing with these guys since I was 9 and this game while it wasn't our favourite it was big enough to leave a lasting effect on me. I can't play any other battle royale for longer than 30mins without thinking about Spellbreak giving me more freedom and making me actually think about what I'm doing.
It sucks... This game was great, flawed, but great. Hopefully, Blizzard listens to you and does something with this IP but I don't know if I trust Blizzard with Spellbreak, especially after Overwatch 2.
fun fact, spell break started as an idea i always thought was neat: battle royale, but with swords, bows, and magic instead of guns and grenades. over time, apparently the magic system was the most fun to use, so they dropped the swords, bows, spears etc. and focused on the magic system.
I never got into Spellbreak because at the time of its release it was "Just another battle royale" to me. I had gotten so burnt out by the genre's over saturation that if a game was a BR I just straight up didn't care about it. Looking back at the game and also giving this video a look made me realize that viewpoint wasn't really fair. You're absolutely right that there will likely never be another game like Spellbreak, and I do regret not giving it a shot...
I made a lot of friends on spellbreak but I had to take a long break for college and when I got a ps5 I got the bad news about the game :( I will probably never see those people again but it was really fun ❤️ o7
Never played this game, but as a gamer I feel ya bro.
It´s ever sad lose your universe that you have shared emotions, momments, friends and laughs online.
I miss Defiance, Riders of Icarus, Gigantic and some other amazing experiences as well. Nice video.
This is like that one person you fell in love with you lost and you feel like you'll never meet another again
I've never heard of this game, or you. This popped up in my timeline, and I figured I'd give it a shot. Now I'm sad, like my favorite game got shut down... wish I had found you sooner, the game sounded good
Hey Marcus, thanks for sharing this tribute to Spellbreak. It was such a pleasure to play, and it will always hold a special place in my heart. Your video captured the essence of the game perfectly and brought back fond memories for me. I appreciate the effort you put into giving it a fitting sendoff. Keep up the good work!
glad to be apart of the community. wish things ended differently. damn. put 1.5k hours into the game. don't regret a thing.
This game was an absolute gem!!❤️ I’ve been playing since launch and as someone who’s a big nerd for magic, powers, mages, & things of that nature this game has always wowed me for its concept and how well they were able to nail it!! It deserved/deserves SO much better. I REALLY hope this game makes a resurgence and it’s backed by ppl who know how to run a good battle royale. The concept of battle mages with elemental magic powers in a battle royale is just TOO good of a concept and the gameplay was SO clean. Here’s to hoping if it’s not revived SOMEONE will pick up this concept and expand upon it further and give us cool designs, more magic, and cooler maps. #RIPSPELLBREAK💖
Hey!..I remember you!..From the vids on Spellbreak official channel...Good to see your own channel have grown up...
And the game died...Damn...I've never played it after release...Always thought:"I'll play some other day..." Well...Guess there won't be any "other day" anymore...Feels bad man...
But,hey...Even Paragon got revived recently...So,maybe...
I was an early adopter like you, and I remember that after I took a break from the game with my brother, optimization and MM was what killed it for us. At some point, my brother couldn't run the game so smoothly and so do I and combining it with the lack of match making, meant that after a short time we said let's wait till they fix the optimization.
Then we came back to a game that ran better but empty lobbies. I was also hoping that I will be able to grow as a creator but because of IRL stuff couldn't make it a reality.
I really wanted this game to succeed T.T.
Also because the game was so long in public beta contributed to this issue.
I’m glad this video got the attention this game always deserved. My pfp is still my art from back in my spellbreak days 😭
Feels like deja vu man. Ever heard of “Magicka: Wizard Wars”?
That was the high skill ceiling, element based combat game I got into during alpha and the mourned when it was taken offline only a year or two after launch.
Definitely feel where you’re coming from. It was a special time, and some of my first ever competitive multiplayer experiences were in that game. I still remember the handles of some clan mates who I never met in person, just because of the memories we shared chatting on Teamspeak while we practiced dueling, or experimenting with combos in the game to help shape the meta.
Here’s to you Jensen, Argotha, Trance, Shark_in_a_Box, and Neon, and many more!
RIP MWW
I remember trying out Spellbreak for the first time and thinking “wow, it’s like Magicka, but you can jump… and you have a face!”
This broke my heart.I’m on ps5 and I was watching my old clips,my wins,my losses, funny moments, cool moments, and this is what the game has become into
I have not been a gamer since StarCraft: Brood War days. My brother had a lot to do with Spellbreak and it saddened me when it got killed (needless to say a thing about the acquisitions and their outcomes…!).
Anyway, nice to see some Spellbreak post-mortem love.
I recently found the game in my library. I remember playing it and having a blast. Now i found out the game was shut down and im sad to see it go.
The last bit of this video that you “really didn’t want to do” was very touching.
its actually so sad to hear this game is being shut down, i havent played in forever but i always had good times playing, it sucks to see it go
I played SpellBreak for a while and really enjoyed it but I also felt like the lack of proper new content and mmr based matchmaking was the downfall. I remember my first match was played in duos and both my teammate and I died in mere seconds without even seeing who hit us, it was disheartening to say the least and the idea that I tried to jump in several times over the course of 6 months or so and nothing ever changed was another hit to my desire to play
found your channel through spellbreak. Loved this game, sad its gone.
This is why playing some games is really hard cause we invest so much time into it. Just for it to close sometime down the road and it's like that time was wasted somewhat, also if the player is a cash shopper that likes to buy mounts/skins you just wasted a lot of money. This is especially true for mmorpg games. I myself had over 500 hours in spellbreak and was also sad to see it was closing.
It's really weird, because everyone I talked to about this had the same situation as me and my friends did: It came out on steam, we played it, we loved it. We never played it again. After Like 3 days of playing it, never boot it up again. No idea why, it was fun, we all loved it, but just stopped playing and forgot about it.
it is sad to have something that impacted your life pulled away by things out of your control. I hope your able to find something to bring you the joy that this game and community provided. whether that is with a new game or hobby, or perhaps an existing part of your life that you might find is worth more or your attention. good luck going forward.
well you're the only one that I watched and knew when I first playing SpellBreak. I'm very surprised to know that it is about to come down. Hope you find another game to make content in the future like Sea of Thieves
Used to play this a lot with friends along with fortnite back then but the lack of content and players made us completely stop one of the most unique games ever fr
The most charming thing about spellbreak in its early days was the feel of the magic. I truly felt like a novis mage. It was challenging and required a bit of practice. Thats magic in a nutshell.
It’s sad to hear it’s shutting down I took a break from it so I had no idea it was going down it was such a unique game
I think one of the biggest reasons that this game died was that there was almost no advertising.
Just like Titanfall 2 the game had so much potential but with such a lack of publicity no wonder people didn’t play.
My other problem with it was it’s lack of true progression.
I’m sad to see this game go, I still loved it as one of the most unique games I’ve ever played.
