*1/06/2024* I got the inspiration to make this video from watching 'Rock On' (duh!) but it even surprised me that a movie which has nothing to do with Video Games at all is the one that got the ball rolling, Inspiration comes from anywhere truly. 'PROCASTINATION POSIONS CREATIVITY' That's the thing I learnt from this project , I had so many great ideas for this video now granted I was able to execute 90% of them but that remaining 10% man , the ideas that I missed out on might not be important in a macroscopic lens BUT I OBSESSE over tiny details , if something doesn't go the way I want I will lose my mind , because what if that 10% of the ideas that I skipped had the key to take my content to the next level , and the only reason why I didn't do them IS BECAUSE OF ME which is hilarious! Aur mai koi red pill Andrew Tate type stuff preach nai kar raha vo sab Bakwaas hai! Eh zyada time waste nai karunga bas itna keh raha hu Don't Procrastinate on stuff ESPECIALLY If you are in a Creative field , make the most of the time you have! Also seeing so many comments on the last video of people expressing their views and thoughts about gaming ,I can gladly say that I achieved the goal I set for that video and its all thanks to you guys! I really hope you guys enjoyed this video too! and if you think this video lacked something or could have been better , definitely let me know and no NOT BETTER IN THE SENSE KI MERA FAVORITE GAME MENTION nai kiya but as in The pacing of the video , the editing and all the other stuff! Anyways its 4:30 AM while am writing this and why are you still reading this!? I leave these notes for me.

@HiDogg 26 күн бұрын

The pacing seems really good to me, actually this might be the 1st time i have seen a partial hindi video game essay with good pacing+editing. People only do commentary gaming videos here and nobody tries essays or they don't have the style that is digestible. Also, small correction 2nd hand console games can be returned after buying on the same website for a bit price deduction on gamenation(haven't used cex or gameloot) and therefore console gamers can play at lower cost 12:43 What's with that moan sfx

Jin games mai Denuvo hai woh toh hum buy karlenge. Why pay for denuvo less games. If u want to waste your money on steam for the same experience which you will get from piracy then go for it. Vaise bhi it dosen't matter if u have a pc it means you are paying for your wifi.

You never "owned" the game though. You were always lent the game on lease. It's literally why EULA exists. Ubisoft just stated it out loud that gamers aren't liking it. It's nothing new to the table

@@iditrirajan people when they refer to talking about owning games they are taking about games like God of war 2/3 , Nintendo's Pokemon games any ps2-3 games which can run on their own without the need of the games server being up or not

@sai_neko_reddy 26 күн бұрын

@@iditrirajanthat's what they meant by owning games , even if you watch some ordinary gamers who is vocal about the fact that games should be a product you own , he doesn't asks the companies to only make offline games he is asking them to make games but when the game is about to be closed or being shutdown provide and option for running it without the need of internet so that people can actually own their games and play whenever they want I know it is not possible with games like fortnite or rainbow six siege but it is damn well should be possible for games like God of war Ragnarok or grand turismo titles or any games which doesn't need online connectivity to actually make the game function

As a student i really cant pay 4000 for games like ghost of tshushima or the last of us. For me its either pirate the games or dont play them at all. So in those cases i have to resort to piracy . But this one tweet i read from a game developer a couple days back sums it up, "If u cant help us financially, help us through word of mouth" but one thing i can say for sure is that when i start earning i will buy games
