Guys, we understand your RAGE, but we tried very hard making this video. We didn't know everything will turn out like this. You can subscribe to channel, there are a lot of interesting vids to watch
This seems to have been inevitable and nothing you could do about it, besides not publishing the video. It was honestly great, and we appreciate it. Regardless of what happens.
Also screw sony, they can eat bug guts.
Seems like idiots can't understand that this is (almost) all Sony's fault. Sure, AH could've addressed it better, but ultimately Sony's the culprit behind this
Except now everything is FINE! WE WOOON!
FOR DEMOCRACY!!!!!!!!!!
i should really get to beating magicka
And just like that, all the good Arrowhead has built, Sony burns down in one day.
Yep
[Post Informed Edit] I know, and I hate Sony too. We will fight them. And we may not win, but they will suffer still for what they have done to our way of life and to Democracy. RIP foreign Helldivers community. Fuck Sony.
(original post was asking why this is a big deal. I've since had time to gain awareness of the situation and become extremely enraged by it)
@@SphendranaSony sells ur data and its getting hacked every year, also their anticheat gains a lil too much of ur pc data.
@@fugopychotka7560 Ok. What's that gonna do?
Again, genuine question. No tone of negativity or disbelief lol.
@@Sphendrana PSN is not safe. It has had a very comprehensive history of being hacked over the years. This results in user's data being stolen by malicious parties. This can lead to issues such as identify theft (which has happened to PSN users back in 2011).
Also, if a person has like 200 games on steam, then data such as purchase history, their reviews on games, preferences of games, limited bank data used to purchase games on steam, etc will be exposed to third parties incase of a data breach on Sony's end (which is pretty common compared to other companies). Also, even if Sony didn't have frequent data breaches, they would use this user data to sell to other advertisement companies to give its users specialized ads based on their purchasing habits. Any claims about security in relation to this PSN account linking fiasco is a facade to get more data from the steam users and to show a increased userbase for PSN to shareholders.
"PSN is not available in some regions" is a false statement. It is not available in MOST regions. Out of the 192 countries, only 69 of them have access to PSN. Due to steam's refund policy only allowing 2 hrs of gameplay, people who have spent hard earned money to purchase the game AND participate in ingame purchases to support the developers have been kicked out from the player base and have had their money basically stolen. If PSN was a necessity from the beginning, Sony should not have sold the game in those regions that they don't support. This practice is equivalent to a rug pull and it highly immoral (and perhaps illegal).
Also, when you went to Sony's website in the faq section, the answer to "do you need a PSN account to play play station games on pc" was a no. Only a couple of hours before the announcement of PSN linking did this faq get edited to "some games may need a PSN account". This is scummy for obvious reasons. People may have reffered to this faq before purchasing the game, so to have it change so recently is an anti consumer move from Sony.
There are more things i could say about the morality of the situation but imma end it here.
AH deserves all of their success and glory. Making games because they love making games, protecting their projects from soulless corporate greed.
Definitely agree
so, anyway, the game has MTX. what was that part you said about "soulless corporate greed?"
let me guess: "but other developers do it even worse and are more greedy."
ah, okay. that must mean that their soulless corporate greed is not soulless corporate greed then.
moron.
News flash😂 the protection is gone I repeat, protection is gone😂😂😂😂
@@Press_X_ care to update your agree to hard disagree, or are you gonna keep coping and living in a fantasy?
Sure but they also knew ahead of time and said nothing to us they also scammed us they are better than sony sure but they are also bad.
I just realized. This is a history channel. A true history channel. That focuses and catalogues the stories of such a niche within a niche. No wonder history channel is dead. It’s TH-camrs like you that keep my thirst for this knowledge alive. Thank you for this video. I enjoyed it very much learning about Arrowhead and their failures and successes.
Hope you’ve subbed
Man, Magicka was one of the best things to have happened back then, I've had copious amounts of fun with my friends during that time.
It makes sense why Helldivers turned out the way it did, the skill and humour balance feel of both games is probably what really ties all together.
Sony has to understand that if you mix a bucket of poop and a bucket of cake you end up with two buckets of poop.
Better wise up sony suits. We wont bend the knee.
I just hope that AH don’t let off the gas, updates have been so consistent I almost forgot what a live service game is supposed to be!
The biggest party killer in Magicka was the damn netcode. We had to use hamachi to play together semi stable
Oh yeah, I remember hamachi lol.
This managed to age like milk sooo quickly lol great video though.
Legit just saw this last night while going to bed after a great couple of drops. Now I don't even want to log in. Way to kill the mood Sony. Worse than when Notch sold Mojang to MacroHardOn.
We the players, and the devs at AH don't deserve this shit.
This aged well
The situation seems to be resolved with PlayStation's announcement. Then the full outcome is known I won't if anyone will be able to secure an interview with Arrowhead about how they feel about working with PlayStation after what happened. Do think you should make a follow up video at some point regardless.
Game is great, but unfortunately Sony woke up and it wants ALL THE MONEY.
Great video! I love Magicka, literally my youtube profile is a mage from Magicka that I drew when I was like 10 years old.
Thank you ❤️
great video but damn is HD2 in a weird spot right now
it was really fun to learn about the Company, that made my new fav game. Great Vid. and Top Quality
This is a great documentary! Thank you very much - was a lot of fun to learn more about AH, as i love HD2 but tbh, haven't heared anything about them before. Its fascinating to get know the creative heads behind this amazing game
this is a great documentary!! inspiring for newer devs like me. A well thought out and well put video. Thank you!!
Newest chapter: Then their Faustian bargain to go under Sony's wings bit them in the ass really hard.
It's a tragedy the game is collapsing over the weekend. I wonder what will happen next
The Showdown Effect was actually one of my favorite games at one point that I would play all the time.
Edit: Also played Magicka a lot back in the day, including expansions.
Great video, well researched like all your longform stuff. You deserve so much more subs.
My favorite part of helldivers 1 if you played it on the ps4 is that you would hear sound effects from the controller like when your ran out of ammo. Also cape spinning.
Love your in-depth research into their history, they deserve all the success
Don’t forget to watch other videos
Well this didn't age well lol
Really good video, your channel is criminally underrated
I hope you’ve subbed ❤️
It turned out they are exactly like everyone else.
They definitely captured lightning in a bottle with HD2!
I'm 200 hours in and looking forward to the next 200 ❤
Wonderful game
channel underrated af
This video is so good and well made! You will surely grow Your channel a lot. I have spoken.
I hope so
Beautifully made video m8!
This video is now outdated
link account to PSN :)
Turns out they are like everyone else after all.
I don't think having Sony force this on them makes it their fault, nor are they like everyone else. They got Corpo'd. They thought it was a good move, turns it out wasn't, actually. But I wouldn't put the blame on AH. This is a Sony thing.
@@Sphendrana Sony "forced" them to not talk about this for 3 months? Sony "forced" them to hire community managers that actively mock and silence people speaking up about the isse? I call BS, they're just trying to shift the blame entirely on the publisher, who is *mainly* responsible, but not exclusively.
What a documetary, really well done
I mean, I subbed because I love long video essay comment, I would have subbed a second time after seeing that intro call to action if TH-cam would let me. Nicely done.
Now I'm imagining Magicka 2 as a third person shooter. 😢
More to come in the future
bless their hearts
7:50 where can i fins original interview?
Is it me or is he wearing kufyia?
I hope they keep friendly fire, not only does it prevent explosion spam, it leads to some pretty funny moments
Sometimes I think friendly fire should be extended to also destroy samples and secondary objectives, like the artilery shells making their success impossible. It would make the game more tactical. But there should me more samples in the game for compensation.
>prevent
yeah, talk to my friend about that. He's nothing but 120>380>Air Strike>Cluster>120>380>MOVE PEOPLE MOVE!
Like this channel, narrator is silly and the content is very informative
Really weird that he has had a finger in most of those games I loved growing up too.
You got another one cooking after today?
Welp...
The only thing i can fault Helldivers 2 for, is the lack of Couch Coop.
Besides the spotty net code, crashes, and matchmaking that is...
This aged like a fucking avocado
Did it?
on one hand, arrowhead does deserve praise for keeping the spirit of gaming alive
on the other hand, i want to bash them like bongo drums for their coding, which consistently crashes and glitches across all their titles. its unacceptably bad coding in games with serious potential. to put it simply, magicka could have been so much more if the team didn't suck.
I think we can forgive them
It ain't a Bethesda/EA game bro, relax. The bugs aren't THAT bad.
00:55:00 VEHICLES!!! 🚗
This video aged like fine milk.
#PSN-Sony
yo what if they made a 3rd Person MAGICKA?! :o i'd play the F outta that
"Køtt Bullar" means meat buns... Køtt means meat not boring??? where did you even get that from???
genuine question, BTW, I'm not blaming you for getting a language you don't speek wrong
Gosh darnit.
F bro. Betcha didn’t think this would age so horribly, so fast.
I'd like to point out that Arrowhead co-founder Malin Hedström is a woman who looks like a woman and not like any of the random guys with beards that she's depicted as in this video. :P
Also the comment about boring food is completely lost in translation, i think the joke was supposed to be that they ate swedish meatballs, 'Köttbullar', so often that they started calling them 'Tjatbullar' which has a similar pronounciation but roughly translated means nag-balls.
Ooops
The Ministry of Truth approves this propaga... * shooting noises * independently made documentary.
You've been awarded a "Like of Liberty" as well as a "Democratic Subscription".
For Freedom, for Liberty, for Managed Democracy, for Super-Earth!
😉
What about mortars
5 hours and no comments? let me fix that
🙏
“But it turns out WERE like everyone else”

Well this aged poorly.
Why??
@@thejuansnow Update: Sony has stated (but not yet reversed) that it will not be blocking the sale of and playing of Helldivers 2 in more than 170 countries because of the decision to enforce a PSN login connection to operate.
For the time being, the game is still no longer listed in at least 170 countries for purchase at this time due to this decision.
@@Nobleheart111 your point?
@@ArcanoSilverwind
Sony has shown that they control the studio.
Ergo, they are NOT just for fun, but for control over a captivated consumer base.
didn't age well
Arrowhead must find a way to buy out it's own IPs. I hope someday well no longer allow an investor to steal ideas and be content with just getting the fat stacks or perhaps...
This aged very poorly.
whats this ai generated script man
Why?
@@Press_X_ You repeat your points a lot. Like you restate your sentences without adding any substance. Like you could cut runtime by 20% if you reduced the restating.
REMOVE THE REQUIERMENT FOR PSN ACCOUNT CONNECTION ON UR GAME
