While I think GW2 is objectively better, there are personal things that make me prefer the prequel. -I honestly preferred plants sticking to defense and zombies to offense. Felt more thematic plus it's what the classes were based around. -The new classes are cool but kernel felt to similar to solider and pirate to cactus. -It felt weird that the new classes got very little variants compared to the old ones. And on launch Citron and Super Brainz had half of their variants be legandary. -Aside from trials of gnomus, the updates felt weaker to me. GW1 updates added new modes and new stuff and the ones that added variants usually had a lot. Suburbination only had plasma and there was the weird promotional variants but usually they had a lot more. -Cosemetics were better but that's not just me lol. -I liked the maps in GW1 more. They felt more PvZ than most the GW2 ones. So yeah I prefer the prequel, but I can't deny my preference is based on personal gripes.
I’m Still mad we didn’t get brain street and all the gw1 maps back, also the customisations are awful with only a few exceptions, compared to gw1 thats the other way round: 90% good customisations 10% bad customisations.
I think one of my favorite aspects of this game is how creative they got with the character designs of the variants and even the elemental variants explore a different concept around their Element (Like BBQ corn, Yeti Chomper, Cpt. Squawk, etc.)
When i play the deadbeard i always feel like im playing GW1 even though ive never played the game it feels so polished like hes been in the series for years
Gw2 is a perfect sequel but I feel some parts where indeed weak, mainly the customizations. I feel Popcap could have one final update for this game where it ported most of Gw1 into Gw2 in case of a remaster for the first game doesn’t work out
The fact that the completionist once said "perfectly blend multiplayer and completely require microtransactions.... oh yea that's right" as he glances to Garden Warfare 2 will never not be insulting.
@@SylviaYSII never liked the completionist. I think ranking Pvz2 as the "worst video game sequel" when Overwatch 2 exists is just very unnecessary and cruel.
@@SylviaYSI All the silver, gold, diamond, and gem cosmetics felt like a way to pad pack drops so you can consistently get things that aren’t consumables without running out after 20 or so packs.
@@SylviaYSI I could say that PVZH is the best strategy game i've ever played. The game is still not getting any updates, heroes, cards but the game is so balanced that i still have so much fun playing it and im still playing it.
@@TherandomguyhiAlastar Well, there are a lot of counters to the them. But i can agree on Teleportation Zombie because of it's HP. But you can easily kill it at round 3. Depends on your opponents deck.
Hot opinions Gw1 maps and aesthetics better (though the time travel thing was pretty cool and allowed some interesting location) Gw2 abilitys suck Bfn has the best gameplay the abilitys maps and shooting just feel perfect)
@@keirduigy Agree to disagree then. GW2’s physics are interesting (and quite fun at times), but the overall floatier nature, lack of coyote frames, and poor midair movement can hinder the experience by a lot depending on who you’re playing as.
Hey man, was digging around older pvz videos about garden warfare and at 1:18 there’s a scene with a white board which says “Zomboss Arena Prototype” which is not checked off, it doesn’t hold much importance but to kinda show it was hinted at early on and to maybe give a date on when it could’ve happened, I’ll leave the video in the replies to this comment.
@@SylviaYSI One thing I will mention is that I played bfn before. I personally think that it is so much better than a lot of people say it is. It still is unfortunately a downgrade from the sequel from what I've seen
I have some criticism, and it ain't nice. I can't call it a "perfect sequel", as gw2 like BFN took some steps forward and back. JESUS CHRIST THE MAPS ARE ACTUAL GARBAGE! ITS LIKE SOMEONE PUKED THE COLOR PURPLE ALL OVER IT! And unlike gw1, man is the game is unbalanced towards the zombies. WHO THOUGHT OF TOXIC BRAINZ?? NO, SERIOUSLY! IDC IF U CALL IT A SKILLL ISSUE TB IS ACTIVELY A BROKEN MESS. I think Gw2 is overrated, but it is not entirely bad, I guess... Uhh, ops is good..? Look, I don't like gw2, infact it's my least favourite shooter, and if u wanna fight me in the comments, don't even bother, your "counterpoint" is irrelevant to me.
I fell like Pvz Gw1 doesen’t try to be “cool” with cosmetics and characters and most importatly MAPS. While the second game improves progresion and graphical things for all of this stuff. Preaty sad.
@@SylviaYSI Thanks for the information. Sadly, my only option is the PC version. Maybe i can get a console in the future and can play this amazing game.
For someone who has played 2.5k hours and have competed at the highest level, I'm really glad the game is getting more and more recognition. Sad thing is that it's currently dead and we have no hope of it being revived. The game is unfortunately meant to die
Especially concerning the recent dev tool leaks that have happened, I think it’s safe to say that GW2 is mostly done for at this point, which really sucks.
@@SylviaYSI thats right. more than that, the game is just not getting a new instalement because all devs have been moved to others games. So yeah, pvz shooters are done for
It still has a solid fan base here on Xbox. We get around 50 group posts for the game (And growing a bit due to literally every PC player flooding in rn) and we can get into a full/big multi-player game in around 5 secs(Only including turf, team vanquish, random, townhall and some ops diffuculties)

GW2 is an example of a perfect sequel. Surely they couldn’t mess up the third instalment…
Yep surely they wont
yep, good thing its awesome
Well, I know a lot of people dislike BFN, but I have very… different opinions on the title
@@SylviaYSI I’m a *huge* BFN apologist lol. It just needed more support and a better marketing strategy.
And they didnt!
GW2 cosmetics are really bad compared to GW1 and even BFN imo. And not just the variants but the cosmetics themselves in general.
While I think GW2 is objectively better, there are personal things that make me prefer the prequel.

I prefer the slight art style differences from the original, aswell as the bright and suburban settings

The fact that the completionist once said "perfectly blend multiplayer and completely require microtransactions.... oh yea that's right" as he glances to Garden Warfare 2 will never not be insulting.
He’s the same person who said that PVZ2 is the worst sequel ever made… I think he just has a major bias against PopCap, and IT REALLY SHOWS

Veteran players: GRRRR DISCO CHOMPERS LEGENDARY MODE IS SO DIFFICULT (we all play disco for the music, not the win)
Backyard battleground: *bruh*
The literal perfect sequel
Except for cosmetics imo, I really feel like they dropped the ball on those. But even then, we got some returning from GW1, so it’s not all bad
@@SylviaYSI All the silver, gold, diamond, and gem cosmetics felt like a way to pad pack drops so you can consistently get things that aren’t consumables without running out after 20 or so packs.
“And hover goat 900” while hover goat 3000 is present on the screen
I think I was getting brainium and hovergoat’s numbers mixed up, oops lol
I feel like a better kernel corn intro would be foot solider but more aggressive
Man, these games you review are great! The next two are going to be great, right?
I mean at least heroes was good enough.
I am somebody who has never really liked Heroes, but… I’ll try my best to be unbiased about the game lol
@@SylviaYSI I could say that PVZH is the best strategy game i've ever played. The game is still not getting any updates, heroes, cards but the game is so balanced that i still have so much fun playing it and im still playing it.
@@Emir-zp3gr How is teleportation zombie or Galacta Cactus not OP?
@@TherandomguyhiAlastar Well, there are a lot of counters to the them. But i can agree on Teleportation Zombie because of it's HP. But you can easily kill it at round 3. Depends on your opponents deck.
@@Emir-zp3gr Having to run a counter to a zombie means that the game isn't healthy. Don't get me wrong though, I like the game a lot.
The comics have a good explanation on how zomboss took over
Hot opinions
Gw1 maps and aesthetics better (though the time travel thing was pretty cool and allowed some interesting location)
Gw2 abilitys suck
Bfn has the best gameplay the abilitys maps and shooting just feel perfect)
I also enjoy BFN’s physics engine more than GW2’s.
@@TwilightChomperEnthusiast i liked some of gw2 movement tech
@@TwilightChomperEnthusiastImo bfn ruined the enjoyment of the cool physics of gw2.

Video “Plants Vs Zombies Garden Warfare Dev Diaries 1#”
I wish this game would just have gotten a switch port instead of bfn
I never got to play the garden warfare games.
I heard that they were really good though.
They’re really fun games, would recommend if you can get them for a cheap price on console!

Gw1 was way more imbalanced tbh
I will pray to God to get the BfN video next.
PVZ Heroes before then :)
I fell like Pvz Gw1 doesen’t try to be “cool” with cosmetics and characters and most importatly MAPS. While the second game improves progresion and graphical things for all of this stuff. Preaty sad.
I wish boss mode was in gw2
Alright a new video
Is the game still alive? I never played this game but it looks so good. If the multiplayer mode still playable i can give it a chance.
It’s still very much alive, you’ll just need to avoid multiplayer on the PC version specifically due to a developer tool leak that happened recently
@@SylviaYSI Thanks for the information. Sadly, my only option is the PC version. Maybe i can get a console in the future and can play this amazing game.
super commando on top
Great video ^^ perfect sequel
Bro you got the youtube voice lol
Yeah, kinda wish I didn’t 😭
@SylviaYSI haha dont worry about it i still enjoyed the video bro
Infinity time💀
Plant and zom
Man, this video makes me wanna play GW2. Let me just boot up my pc and enjoy a couple games- oh wait....
😭
Why did you maked a video about a game that camed in 2016?
I’m doing a retrospective on the entire franchise, one game at a time
Don't let this guy see the retrospectives made on any game ever
Easily the best PvZ Game

Shame EA dropped support on this game.
Gw1: prequel trilogy
Gw2:original trilogy and best
Bfn: sequel trashfire that made for money
Its better
