Oh when is the history of Hatoful Boyfriend Pidgeon dating simulator coming out?!! much love from spain

aye aye Captain! As always a great job. Some ppl don't realize the value and quality invested on this type of content, but surely enough I can confident say that this will eventually become out historical heritage in the near future for our generation. As always, thanks for sharing and supporting this series.

Hell yeah I love posteriors, I'll comment for a posterior upload

@@thenaiveofficial2670 Would love to! It's been a few years since I completed those games but I hear the bird cafe is real!

Newbie here, pls explain this comment

@@wrath2008 both co founders of Psygnosis.

@@mrsmilee Psygnosis were so import in my gaming history, Sony stole them from us. 😥

RIP man. Proper programmers. Proper legends.

Absolutely. Very sad. We had hoped (and still hope) to do a doc on Psygnosis and their massively underappreciated influence. I hope one day we can get around to doing it properly. May they rest in peace.

Woah

If life coning a full circle was a YT comment - BTW is she working on the next GTA? It's announced now, so you are now allowed to ask her.

@@lucifer_69960 that’s not how that works she still can’t say what she’s actually doing

Hah - It's never not weird when industry people tell us they watch. It was nice to finally put one of those moments in because it's as much a celebration of our entire community as it is us - and we get to hear it a bunch these days.

​@@NoclipDocs you do such an amazing job with these documentaries, makes me feel happy about you getting noticed more and more by the developers

@@NoclipDocs Guys, it's amazing what you do. I thank you deeply and wish you to prosper! Happy 2022!

Don’t worry, those kids won’t understand the joy of riding a dinosaur.

I learned that GTA existed to Playstation - wasn't even aware x)

Thanks, it was! I had to remember that the work is always about people watching it tomorrow, and ten years from now.

Haha awesome. I remember when a friend of mine once asked me while we were playing GTA4 "Where is GTA made? America right?" He's CLUELESS about games and anything in general tbh the thick lovely chav. And he was SHOCKED and PROUD af when I told him it was his own Scotland. He just turned his head so quick from the screen to me with a joint in his mouth "We made it?! Fucking right on pal!" Things are always way more profound too when you're stoned af We were smoking 10 year old tack (hash) that an ex dealer friend had found in his attic when clearing it a 9 bar he just gave us it as he didn't smoke or deal no more lol. Good times. 😂 The bad thing about tack though compared to the weed we and everyone else were smoking by 2008 was HOT ROCKS. For all you young weed smokers that have never smoked tack back in the days hot rocks would RUIN your tracky bottoms! You smoke your joint and a bring orange red hot rock of tack would fall from the end of the joint and burn holes in your bottoms! If your mam seen this she'd KNOW you've been smoking tack! 🤣🤣 They were a nightmare for a young kid. No one smoked tack by this point (2008) as it was diluted to soap bar SOO much it was unsmokeable. Weed took over as a result. Because the route from Morocco to Spain got fucked so to make the money back up they diluted the hash with all fucking sorts, so much that it was horrible to smoke and didn't really get you stoned. It was a HUGE mistake they fucked up so bad by doing so that they lost the market to the Vietnamese weed growers in the UK and now no one smokes tack and everyone smokes weed and it's GOOD. BUT its way more expensive than tack was man. It's a shame as tack in the 90s was soo fucking good and you could get way higher as good hash is stronger than weed for obvious reasons of how it's made. Woah fuck me I'm too high and talking more about the history of the UK cannabis market than GTA. 🤣🤣

@@rooneye Hey, for what it's worth, I found this very interesting and insightful. As a degenerate burgerfat from Houston, Texas--thank you for sharing this anecdote. 👍✌️

That's wonderful to hear. One of the reasons I felt so strongly about celebrating Dundee as a character in this story was that I'm from a post-industrial port-town in the south of Ireland. My grandfather worked in a jute mill for a time. We've not prospered as much as Dundee but I'm proud of my city's efforts to reinvent itself during my lifetime. I could hear that same pride in the interviews we did, and it felt right to speak to it. Games are so often these ethereal things. It's easy to forget they are borne from places with distinct histories, struggles and dreams.

We Dundonians have a lot of things to be proud of if you dig deep enough. For a nerd there is GTA, Lemmings and the ZX Spectrum (they were built at Dundee's Timex factory), then there are games made by other Dundee developers like Earthworm Jim, State of Emergency and Crackdown. Chris Sawyer is from Dundee, he made all of the Tycoon games, such as Rollercoaster Tycoon. The Beano, the Dandy, Topper and Beezer, the four most popular UK kids comics are all made here at DC Thomson, as well as Oor Wullie and the Broons. Mary Shelley wrote some of her novel Frankenstein in Dundee. The postage stamp was invented in Dundee The RRS Discovery was built here, it took Scott of the Antarctic to the north pole on his ill-fated voyage. Marmalade was invented here (a trader whose shipment of oranges were left to bake in the sun while he waited for customs clearance decided to boil his wasted fruit and came up with a disgusting alternative to jam) Winston Churchill was Dundee's member of parliament for 14 years and did incredible things for the city, falling in love with the city and spending much of his free time here. William McGonagle, arguably the worst poet in the history of poetry called Dundee his home. He's famous for his shite poems. Captain Kidd, one of the most famous pirates of the golden age of piracy was from Dundee. In 1832 James Bowman Lindsay broadcast the world's first radio signal from Dundee which was received by his team in St Andrews In 1879 Karl Marx, the father of communism and author of the Communist Manifesto would have been killed in the Great Tay Bridge Disaster if his Dundonian hosts had not pleaded with him to stay in Dundee, he was in the city to deliver a lecture at one of the universities when the "storm to end all storms" rolled in and destroyed the bridge and the train he would have been on, killing 70 people. Dundee's notorious Liff Mental Hospital became famous when Douglas Adams (creator of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) referenced it in the title of his book, The Meaning of Liff. Dundee is situated on the slopes of an extinct volcano. Dundee folklore is heavily influenced by the story of a dragon that lived here 1200 years ago, the dragon killed nine maidens by nine wells, hence the name of a well known pub and a hospital. Camperdown park is named in honour of Adam Duncan, 1st Viscount Duncan, a Dundonian admiral who defeated the Dutch fleet at the battle of Camperdown in 1797, the second greatest naval victory in British history after Trafalgar. Seriously, once you scratch the surface and find out some of the incredible shit that has happened in our city it'll blow your mind. Today we are probably about the 50th or 60th most industrious city in the UK but at our height in the 1850's Dundee was the third most industrious city in the UK after only Birmingham and Liverpool with 80% of all jute and linen from India landing at our docks and being processed here, and with the majority of whaling ships being built here and based here. At the height of the whale oil trade Dundee was for Britain what Nantucket was for the eastern US, our city kept the oil lamps running across the whole of the UK for 100 years. I am damned proud of this city.

So much innovation came from the UK - much of it from Dundee/Scotland. Every modern day gamer should learn this history.

What a truly odd, back-handed thing to say. Why on earth wouldn't you Like a video that you enjoy? How hard is it to support someone's creative work, that probably took hours, days, weeks to make? All you have to do is click an icon; you're not putting yourself out.

@@w0mblemania I don't like to play along with the notion that content driven by engagement, such as comments and likes, gets promoted by algorithms, so I mostly don't play along with that. I made an exception in this case because I can know that re-uploading a video can be a killer for a content creator due to loss of momentum. Instead of all that I have youtube premium and support creators with my watch time.

@@VascovanZeller Fair enough, cheers.

@@w0mblemania it doesn’t always come naturally, especially on the tv app. I don’t like and comment on a tv show I’ve been watching. Different people have different behaviours.

@@VascovanZellerHoly shite: I found the single most respectful and succinct expression of differing opinions in this thread.. and it all went okay! Right on dudes. ♥️✌️♥️

God forbid anyone other than Americans made anything

Indeed, it also brings into focus how them not being involved in GTA6 isn't a big deal as some think it is.

Dude, the housers get COMPLETELY DESERVED credit for the games that made Rockstar huge because they're the reason the games were good Without Dan Housers writing, gta, bullyand red dead would've been mediocre at best, and garbage in rdr 2s case Gta 3 would've been massive regardless and frankly the writing in gta 3 isn't that great anyways but from then on, the writing is what made them all great Rdr 2 is genuinely one of the worst playing games I've ever played but I still loved it. Only because of the story The housers deserve nearly all the credit

@@GamesNosh wtf are you talking about? It absolutely is. Without them writing it, gta will be complete garbage. It's like metal gear Without kojima. You can't take away what made something good and think it's gonna work out. Especially when that thing was THE ONLY good thing. GTA IV, RDR, and RDR 2 would've all been terrible games if it wasn't for the writing. Gta 6 will be an embarrassment

@@HugoStiglitz88 Do you know the Houser brothers? What's with the weird defensive reaction? lol If you watched the doc you may have picked up on how little the people actually involved credited them with, virtually nothing. DMA, Leslie benzies and the guys at Rockstar North in Edinburgh deserve all the credit.

When Driver came out I wished you could get out of the car like in GTA

@@fearless1000 like getting off the board in tony hawk

@@fearless1000 same, but Driver 2's on foot sections were so bad, a GTA 3 style game seemed way off, in terms of quality. Driver needs a reboot/remake

Ah yes Driver. Yet another game set in the US but made in the UK.

Awesome!

That silly glitch gremlin

The best recommendation yet. Great to hear from you Tom! :D

Thanks so much! We've been doing this for 5 years, enjoy the back catalog :D

Wow, must have been a heck of a time

Hey Dan, Yes, you deserve more credit for your amazing work on SV. I'd love to pop by in Dundee for drinks once this Covid thing is over. Dma was magic and this doc made me remember.

@@obbevermeij7285 Thank you both for your work on the game, it was one of my absolute favorites of all time and certainly lots of fun as a kid on the N64 who later loved GTA3 on a technical level too. I've thought about it a lot over the years and it was one of those games that makes you want to push yourself to be a more creative programmer remembering viewing all of those ability listings, figuring out the funny puzzles from the objective text, and trying to make sure you got around to each new animal and corner of the map, particularly the ice ones. I think it might have even made trips to the San Diego Zoo and learning about evolutionary theory & simulation a bit cooler.

@@accretedarcana Thank you very much. It's very humbling to find out how much people connected with gta and also Silicon Valley. I enjoyed the experience and challenges of making games with a great team. Hearing from people who still remember them after all those years is mind blowing.

@@accretedarcana Thats amazing to hear, thank you. ^_^

@@obbevermeij7285 Would be good to see you again! Also, got you xmas card! ^_^

the format that made vice big, "more of this" i say.

Just saying, FPS boost is implemented on an API level by Microsoft and the devs have nothing to do with it. That said, quite a few devs do offer frame rate upgrades for their games for free or for a small fee. And some developers like 4A studios offer insanely impressive raytraced versions of their game for free. Rockstar recently gave us a cashgrab called the “definitive edition” and will probably release a version of gta 5 on the next gen consoles with graphics which PCs already got back in 2015. And I’m pretty sure they’ll do the same thing to RDR 2 for consoles a few years later. But all this will be forgotten when Rockstar unveils gta 6.
