    NGL, if EA didn't shove their business into Spore, and rush Maxis and pressure them to make a bunch of time skips and leave a lot of unused features, graphics, and etc, Spore would be much more of a masterpiece than it would be today, and maybe it wouldn't be such an obscure piece of internet. But that's just me.

      you're right. the game honestly feels a little bit unfinished if you ask me. it feels hollow, even with the inclusion of mods and shit, like there's some fundamental part of the game that's missing. although maybe it's just because of how ridiculously glitchy the game is lol

    One time my brother was able to become friends with an epic, he wasn’t able to recruit it into his pack but it wouldn’t attack him and had a green relationship. What we think happened was he was able to befriend a nest of the same species as the epic so it spawned friendly. Also there is a glitch that I was regularly able to pull off that allows you to stack weapons and mouths in the cell stage. What you had to do was make the front max size and put a max size carnivore on it then you can put a min size spike in the middle of the mouth. You can then replace the spike with another part if you want.

      @@AdamPersson They were ruined by EA just like everything else they destroyed.
      We came to the era of corporate greed, online locking, paywalling of halfbaked tech demos being sold as ''finished games''. And EA was one of the first companies who iron fisted this idea into reality where lots of others followed because they seen how easy they can getaway with it.
      Some got sued but the gaming market speaks for itself. They sell scams with ease and enough idiots buy into it justifying it's existance.
      Publishers milk investors, developers milk the publishers, when no more money flows in release a mockup as a ''finished game'' milk it dry while move to the next title project that can be milked. So yeah folks, your ''games'' today are nothing but gimmicks, money laundring and a overall big placebo effect when it comes down to gameplay. Especially new gen kids don't even know wtf actual healthy gaming is when they grew up on these. They either grow out of it or grow into an addiction, if they even stay alive to become adults, that is.
      But you will see in parts of the world where all generations don't care for games and rather play something on PlayStation2. Still the most popular retro choice since with mods it can run all old stuff even more then that.

    I find it crazy that any form of drama on the sporums has been completely eradicated over the course of ten years because some people found better things to do. Looking at old controversies in spore that have almost zero consequences today is like exploring ancient ruins.

    2. when you ally the Groxx, all of your allies become hostile immideitly.
    3. some say that Spode is the Debug Squid, since it has tentacles and is "the first being in the universe"
    4. its pretty generally known but for the sake of the easter egg. galaxy spinning in the menu shows devs.
    5. the use of cheats in the space stage gives a badge.

      No, it definitely has to be that one by CantaloupeFish, It fits all requirements.
      It's a Human Faced Dog creation, made for a halloween contest (Ghost Town 2010), and it even has a comment from MaxisCactus themselves mentioning and linking a thread that's no longer available (or at least for me) about disturbing creations.
      The date could just be a mistake in the story or narration and it's actually 2010.
      Not only that but all Human Faced Dogs you say are edits of CantaloupeFish's creation, it's obvious because they're the exact same model with some modifications and in every description of those "clones" they explicitly say "I edited CantaloupeFish's creature" and his name is in the tags.

  • @alienstar2088

    Honestly, if there theoretically was to be a 'Spore 2' I'd hope whoever makes it decides to take it in the more realistic depiction the beta footage was trying to push. I think a game where you literally enact the acts of a creator deity with the added benefit of being a little more gritty would work fantastically.
    Just to be clear, I don't mean it should be anything similar to Dark Spore, grit not edge. What I mean is that during the Cell, Aquatic and Creature stage the game should attempt to mimic the rules of our world. Adapt to overcome certain challenges your ecosystem and planet give you whilst still having overarching control of how your species evolves. Basically, say you're put in a situation where the ecosystem you currently dwell in is low on prey species, you can either evolve your playstyle to be less aggressive, adapt your creature so they don't have to have so much food, move ecosystems and adapt to a new one or adapt to an omnivorous life style. You still choose the direction you wish to take your creature but obviously there are drawbacks to every choice you make.
    As for stages like Tribal, Civilization and Space, I'd like it to be more focused on agriculture, religion, traditions, etc. really forge your own society however, like before, your choices are still up to you but they are guided by the world you live in and the risks you take by adapting your creatures the way you do. Spore 2, if there was to ever be one, should take what Spore did and expand it.

      I think it would be great if actions from past stages had consecuences for the next one. For example, if you drove a lot of species to extinction as a creature there should be less animals available during the civilization stage and if you were reallly aggressive during the civilization stage then that should limot the technology you can have acces to later.

    15:40 I remember seeing someone explain this a bit in the comments, but it didn't do a good job at elaborating, so here's a more in-depth explanation:
    Pause boosting/creature slinging is a technique typically used by speedrunners to move around faster. You need a creature with wings to do this. The steps are as follows:
    1. Click on a creature to select them. It can be any creature, as long as it isn't the player creature.
    2. Face the direction of the selected creature.
    3. Pause the game. This step is mandatory, as otherwise you will just jump in the direction of the selected creature.
    4. Jump twice while the game is paused. This will activate the wings, which is what makes pause boosting/creature slinging possible.
    5. Un-pause. Your creature will get flung in the direction the creature you selected was in at a super fast speed and the momentum is kept even if you start using the glide ability, so you can fly very far distances very fast with this technique.
    It's useful not only for speedrunning, but also for quick getaways when you're in a bind. I believe you could also achieve the flight of the bumblebee achievement with this technique pretty easily.

Why go through the trouble to get them that way if you could use mods to get them? Because EA's customer support can activate the parts in your sporepedia, that way you can share and download creations that use them.
    I think they dropped support for that game around 2019 or at least that's what I have read so far.

    15:40 Pause boosting is used in speedruns of the Creature stage. I think it happens when you jump and pause at the same time, so when you unpause you get launched.

    • @garfunkle8642

      It's a bit more different than that. Firstly you have to have wings equipped on your creature, and after you'll have to select another animal/object you can interact with, pause the game, jump twice (once with a normal jump, twice with the wings) and you've succeeded in pause boosting. The boost is so powerful that, if you combine it with the freecam glitch and a higher level wing/jump (along with maybe mating calls?), you can even touch planets! (You can't look down if you want to keep floating, you have to time it just right and you phase right through them, but it is pretty cool)

    The "Human Faced Dog" one actually has an explanation. It's a yokai (natural spirit, monster, or demon) from Japanese folklore. It's said to be a dog with a human face that appears at night in urban areas, capable of speech but want to be left alone. There are two possible explanations - misidentification of macaques rummaging through garbage, or just an unusual dog that was exhibited in a sideshow in the late 1800's that turned into an urban legend. Like that "human faced dog" that was making the rounds on the internet a few months ago.

    Have you ever noticed that despite the Civilization stage being about your creatures converting cities of your own species, in the loading screen there'll appear Maxis' creatures on it? I'm talking about the civilized creatures.
    Yet, when you play through the stage there's no sign of them.
    Well, I distinctly remember playing the Civilization stage a few times years ago, and my species only owned one city, while the others were controlled by Maxis' creatures.
    I've never heard of something similar happening with someone, not that I've searched a lot to be honest. But it was something that always intrigued me.

    I think something that is overlooked with the cake editor is that the cutscene where you transition from the tribal stage to the civilisation stage shows your creatures 'discussing' what the new society would look like. In part of this you see from the speech bubbles of your creatures suggesting and agreeing on thinks like a building and vehicle which you then have to design. In this cutscene, you also get a different symbol depending on what ending you got from the tribal stage and pie. The pie just seems to be included for comic relief since it's dismissed by the rest of the creatures, but the unreleased cake editor makes me think that 1: instead of using pie for the joke, they planned on using cake and 2: you would use this editor to design some kind of national cuisine.

    Fun fact : The robotic parts were actually a absolute disaster, I went out buying Dr.Pepper to get the parts myself, and they had MAJOR flaws. All the mouths and feet (except those attached to "fresh" arms and legs) in spore have at minimum level 1 sing, and level 1 dance. You cannot make a base vanilla creature that doesn't have sing. (Due to needing to use social to "recruit" pack members, at least with this minimum you'd still be able to recruit your own species)
    However....uh....how do I say this robots can't sing? The mouths in the robots pack had no sing skill, as a matter of fact I think they didn't really provide any major boost beyond bite-power and were all classified as Omnivore. Which also extended to their feet and when all put together, you couldn't social, get pack members, or even use the social system in creature stage. Doing so crashed the game and if it didn't your creature would just stand there and...well can't do actions you don't have. They looked cool don't get me wrong but I ruined quite a few creature stage games when they would use six or seven of the "robots" i made in space-stage creature creator it'd basically lock me out of advancing outside of aggressive if too many spawned in a playthrough.
    This was all creature stage bug's though so outside of that stage of the game nothing else was of issue I think.

    Creature slinging is commonly used in speedruns. Yes, people speedrun Spore.
    Also, regular Spore creatures are HUGE, you can easily cross a continent on Earth even with that slow ass hologram.

    3:57 “not in the Sporepedia”
    I think it’s notable to include, while not technically the sea monster, the Maxis creature Battered Feesh shares a striking resemblance to it.

    The video was amazing! I've been in the spore community since the day I knew about it
    In my free time, I constantly read the wiki, just to figure out about some curiosities, and stuff like that
    I'm very glad to know there are people who are still interested in spore nowadays
    My best wishes from Chile, and keep up with the good work.
    And my apologies in case of misspelled something

    I remember using the comic creator a handful of times as a little kid. I even printed out some of the pages I made and stapled them together. god knows where those are now..
    I do remember a few things about it. You were given a selection of backgrounds, and some pngs of different creatures in various poses that you could drag and drop into different panels. It wasn't anything particularly interesting but i miss it and was happy that you mentioned it

    One thing about the cake editor, I think it could be an easter egg to the end of the Tribal stage, where a member of your evolved pack suggests that "now we can.. bake cakes" or something like that and it could've been used in the game as a joke, as if the member's suggestion was accepted
    (Also, music from true lab and abyss just o.o dark, even darker, so thrilling)

    25:45 I have a little theory for the cake editor and here it is.
    maybe the cake editor wouldve been an optional editor that appeared on the menu whenever its spore's birthday and players would have the ability to create a cake for it. Then your / Maxis'es creations would celebrate it with the cake you've just created.
    Just a little theory of mine c:

      It's real and was made by CantaloupeFish. Here's what they had to say about it in the description: "An emaciated cur with the face of a man, this poor creature's forlorn expression never changes. Once a neglected sideshow attraction at a now-abandoned circus, he wanders the streets of Ghost Town for reasons unknown. Entry for the Ghost Town 2010 contest."

    I love how RoyalBlueXIII is a fan of UnderTale. He used UnderTale soundtracks like The Core for the core of the iceberg, The True Lab theme for Below The Iceberg, and the infamous Gaster’s Theme for The Abyss and even having “The Abyss” flickering through Wing Dings, which is the language W.D. Gaster from UnderTale wrote in. I’m actually semi-fluent in it myself because I’m a dedicated UnderTale fan.

  • @TKs3DPrints
    @TKs3DPrints 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    one thing i would like to point out about the game and editor there was a command ingame that saved out your creation as a 3d model with textures. this was due to maxis used to 3d print spore creations. and i used to 3d print spore models for people before it started going downhill. also did you know robin Williams loved the game. he was at a viewing of the game and was aloud to play with the editor. it was great to watch him enjoy himself. that might also be where people got the idea about a spore movie as he was making up his own voices and dialog as he was playing with the editor. i loved the game i also managed to get featured a few times. i loved the creativity that you had with the game.

    Fun fact, afaik it's totally possible to unlock the Dr. Pepper parts past contract end by being an active creature creator on the Sporepedia and then just messaging the support a bunch of times. Idk if this works in 2022 still, but it's worth trying if anyone has time to do it
    (There's also a datapack to give the Dr. Pepper parts social abilities to make them playable)

    Like how you played "core" during the core, and how "this is where we say farewell" came in near the end.
    Love both of those songs ^.^
    Not the only good thing about the video but just something that stood out to me as being really fun, and wanted to give some credit where credits due.
