    Fun Fact: As you asked Ian, I did actually ask Stupendium on his community post personally on this and got a reply, unfortunately he did not write any of his lyrics for the Chalkeaters's song "Count to Three" which is why his lyrics writing style is non present :) Not that the Chalkeater wrote bad lyrics whatsoever, but still he did a amazing job performing as always tho :)
    PS: Peabody and "Atlas" were the names of the co-op protagonist for Portal 2 :)

      @@dacomputernerd4096 fun fact though, when looking at the time when you are not watching the video, the time shown is either calculated or rounded differently, making it say it is 3:00 despite it only really being 2:59
      (also, I counted 3 times they said "three", one at 1:11 one at 2:22 and one at 2:42 in the original song, or for a link for each time: th-cam.com/video/jpw2ebhTSKs/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/jpw2ebhTSKs/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/jpw2ebhTSKs/w-d-xo.html
      though, if you only include ones in the subtitles it is only 2 as Kippy commented, though also captions show the third three...

    You also missed how the elevator at 8:19 till 8:40, when its descinding and ascending, its counting the floors as dislikes and likes, in half-life numbers ( -1, -2, -2.1, -2.2, -3).
    Two other funny things:
    - every floor has something already in it, except for floor -3, because there is no third half-life content to fill the stage. Instead there are caution and warning signs everywhere, because you have no idea what's there and Gabe wants you to stay away from that "place"
    - when the elevator its ascending, it does so after the mention of hope from Half-life: Alyx, imitating that people start to regain hope and give likes and attention to Valve. Even so, at the end of the day (when the elevator reaches top floor), total like-dislike ratio for Valve after all the previous crap... Is still a glorious zero :))

  • @latech7671
    @latech7671 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    (Unfortunately some Spoilers for Half-Life Alyx)
    Oke, here are my favorite lines as a Fan of Valve:
    8:39 The first time Three is called and what is shown right after is probably the Key to an actual Half-Life 3 being made
    8:49 "Well here we are again / It's always such a pleasure" are the first 2 lines of the Endcredit-Song of Portal 2 (Want you Gone)
    9:01 "But Alyx gave us hope we'll rise and shine" Again shows that Half-Life Alyx has made it more possible that new games will come out, but this time it is based on Portal and not Half-Life. The Reason is that before Alyx shipped Valve was in no fit state to ship any game as their Engine was not finished and they simply couldn't concentrate on one project for long enough (which is because of their Work-Culture where everybody can pretty much work on whatever he/she wants)
    10:50 "For soulless Card-Games and Hardware Releases" is obviously a wink at probably Valves worst game, Artifact, being released during their big void of games and a lot of Hardware that didn't quite catch on being released during it.
    12:32 "Life gave you Lemons take them out the freezer" is based on Portal 2 where Cave Johnson uses Lemons as an Metaphor for "Opportunities in Live" and they are obviously using this here as well saying: Take your opportunities out the freezer where they have been stuck in for the last years Valve
    12:45 "When everyone's anticipating another Masterpiece of Art" is I think the most direct callout at how hard it is to be working at Valve and making any new game in any of their franchises (especially one with a 3 at the end) as you can almost not live up to expectations (except I think Half-Life Alyx would have done for me, even if it was called Half-Life 3, which it could have easily been called SO Great Job to all the Devs on that Project)
    12:50 "If this machine keeps playing dead we may end up on the other side" with the other big publishers being the other side I think clearly shows that if Valve never did any other games but only collect money with Steam everybody would see Valve as just another of these Money-Hungry publishers BUT connected with the other part before about how hard it would be to live up to expectations you can really see the problem Valve has. If they release nothing they will be seen just like all other publishers making no games because it is the cheapest way to make the most money but if they make a new game and it doesn't land well, it will basically result to the same as they are now not seen as a good developer anymore but one that has left it's good days behind.
    13:16 "The Valve been stuck corroded by the Money" At the one hand the way many people in the industry see Valve today but in a weird way also the way Valve actually is, because Valve has basically infinite Money and infinite Time for whatever Project they want to work on which results in them simply not finishing a single project. Sometimes not having time or other restrictions is the best motor for creativity.
    13:24 "We can't believe the Engine started running" is in one way a continuation of the "Valve" of this engine being stuck and now finally working again but can also be taken literally because (as I said before) Valve had a hard time over the last years (I think basically since Portal 2) because they didn't have a finished engine and many projects they started didn't make it because the Engine was not ready BUT with Half-Life Alyx they finally (mostly) finished of Source 2 and it is now actually working. This is my favorite part of this song ;)
    13:28 "This time he's bound to count to three" Basically the hope of the community that with the Tech now finally being up to scratch again (mostly) that Valve will finally make a 3-Game (Half-Life or Portal mostly) and I think even Valve thinks the same as Developers have said they really want to make more Games in the Half-Life Universe and connected with Half-Life Alyx's Ending this has only elevated the Communities expectations. Then again, Expectations where one of the problems all along
    13:54 "We've got some work to do" with Alyx handing Gabe the Crowbar is basically a rehash of the Confirmation from Valve that they really want to make a Half-Life 3. It is taken from the After-Credit Scene of Half-Life Alyx where BIG SPOILERS!!!!
    Eli gives Gordon the Crowbar and says: "We've got work to do"
    14:05 I think the To Be Continued... is more of a joke on Valve who always have cliffhangers as endings for Half-Life Games and therefore pretty much always say "To Be Continued..." after every Half-Life Game. This tradition alone pretty much means that there will never be an End in the Half-Life Series.

    the line "you said its been worth the wait" is referring to one of the most memorable quotes in the tf2 community by none other than Gabe himself when tf2 was originally released in 2007 and is usually used in the context of some major game bug/exploit or simply bad game design/mechanics in a form of irony. The follow-up line in really hits home when she says "his wait keeps passing harder" since tf2 haven't had a major update beyond Christmas and summer cosmetics in 3 years, especially with casual servers being overrun by aimbots and yet valve does little to nothing in helping it, even though tf2 is more popular now than ever!

    Count to three can be a reference to big thing that Valve is preparing. "He said it's worth to wait, his weight keeps pressing harder", "we can't believe the engine starte running", "So hold on to all your hats, let’s
    Show ‘em a triple-A done right!". I believe it's true.

    7:06 Something to say was that his rule wasn't about skipping a rhyme, it was specifically breaking a song because a character can't think of a rhyme. The only exceptions he put in was for if it fit the character (like in Bikini Bottom Day) or if it's supposed to be a character who is writing the song, so he fumbles as he tries to improvise. It wasn't about breaking a rhyme, just stopping the song to have a line about not having a rhyme

"It's creepen' a bit" is one of my favorite lines from Dr. Evil ever..from how he describes Scott's laugh and how he needs to "take it down a notch"..I watched THAT movie way too many times back in the day.

    35:15 - Doctor Evil references aside, it's been well-documented that real-life dolphins simply have _really_ good PR and are actually WAY more "playfully violent" than sharks (and _certainly_ easier to train to go after certain targets), which means laser dolphins are pretty much the _ideal_ marine pet for a villain! :D

The playbutton is very valuable due to it's material and its rarity. JackSucksAtLife (he specializes in obtaining youtube awards) bought the playbutton for more then a thousand dollars.

    Some facts about "Count to three". Of course, I've seen someone say they say "3" only 2 times and the song is 1 second behind 3 mins. But this song was also originally going to be more "punishing" than motivational is how Chalkeaters put it BUT the reason they didn't make it meaner was because Gabe Newel turned out to be so nice. Gabe even tried to sing a couple of lines but, as he said, “that was.... bad”. Lol. This song is so great. Gabe and Ellen both actually being involved with this song makes it so cool!
