Good day - been a minute, but I just got back from Stockholm for PDXCon. I'm no longer an uncultured swine. More content on the way, probably a bit more frequently since the last one. Hope you enjoy!
Thanks for the upload!
Hope see more.
Did you play or have any interest in Victoria 3? Your blend of whimsy and existentialism could liven up the economic imperialism for some fun videos.
May I suggest a name. Meanus Peanus
A tale of Geralt Williams will be fun again, it's been too long since we seen P Zomboid
"an angry, photosynthetic Beyblade" is something we should all aspire to be
LET IT RIP
I laughed out loud at this one XD

We don't kill to eat. We kill to send a message.
It's not about the food, it's about sending a message
That’s exactly why I eat the deer I shoot. I also gut and skin them in the woods, to send a message to the deer who keep coming onto my property and eating my trees. I sometimes leave random deer heads on pikes around the perimeter of my property to remind the deer who’s boss around these parts.

I feel like "genocidal herbivore" is just how I would describe hippos
> Genocidal herbivore challenge Ah yes, the hippo playthrough.
The most fun I've had in the space stage is actually fighting the Grox. They really...reallllly...REALLLY...don't like it when you terraform their planets. Even bringing a world to tier one is sufficient to prevent them from placing a colony. So...y'know... Give 'em the gift of volcanoes. To help build an atmosphere of course. For all the plants that they'll be growing on the planet. When you convert them to Veganism. Forcibly.
This right here. Terraforming was honestly super fun for me in Spore. Going around and collecting a bunch of different species and plants, deciding how I wanted to make the planet look. The worst part is just the grind to unlock and afford the more efficient tools
The ironic part is that Grox are the only species worth befriending due to their size and placement. Though that's a challenge on itself.
@@TheArklyte It's not a challenge at all. Commit enough war crimes and they'll love you
@@KaguroDraven if you'd ever show any agression towards them(even in tutorial), you're locked away from doing that.
@@Red-Tower I always hoped NMS would go the same route too once they started rebuilding the game. It grew massively, but I'm not sure if you can introduce "invasive species" from other planets even now.
You know, despite the flaws and how much EA gutted from it, ya just can't hate Spore. The diversity of what you could make in that game was fucking astounding for 2008
it would be cool to see a competent spore 2
@@jimmybean420 I think that is what I mean when I say A competent Spore two. We aren't completely there yet, but ... we've come a long way in algorithms, and concepts of artificial intelligence. Neural networks and machine learning Etc. Computers can solve the protein folding problem now. No man's sky did an amazingly creative way of procedural generation of creatures. And there is so much more that has never been attempted with things like cellular automata. And there are at least a few projects out there like the bibites.

Yes once you are vegan and you become thicc
Make sure to binge on lard and ice-cream while doing squats and cycling nonstop, then become vegan
Yesss plz !! do it make it happen
As a vegan i can confirm, this is stage two of veganism
What’s stage three?🦦
Ugh I hate it when bosses have second phases
@@pumpkinuser2624 You should see stage three when the vegan police grant us our psychic vegan powers. It's so much easier to sneer condescendingly at people when we can float in midair and impale our enemies with asparagus spears using only our brains. 😂
Haha
@@RivkahSong Tell me oh great Vegan Wizard of the youtube comments section, if you can farm honey ethically, does that make it vegan?
spore is definitely something i’d like to see more of in 2022
Last year with no place left to turn I prayed to God in repentance then begged for help with all my heart, "I was until then a lifelong Atheist." I then had a dream of Jesus coming before God and he spoke of the Tabernacle in perfect context, "A word I didn't know existed because I've never read the bible", and the love I felt from Jesus was unlike anything I've ever felt before - A lifetime of joy every second - It brought me to sobbing and it changed my life forever. I've had other miracles since, a few being a light turning on in answer to deeply needful prayer 6 times, seeing a orb of light hours before a major surgery, seeing an Angel in a dream the night my mother prayed for me to see one, "Without telling me", and so much more. Know that God and Jesus ARE real and that they love us deeply. Let go of your hatred and Imagine yourself holding the people who've hurt you. Tell them you love and forgive them and I believe we should do our best to follow, "I've failed many times", the 10 commandments. Always have hope. I believe love is the answer.

Spore definitive edition when?
We need a remake
Love these nostalgic dives in these games from this specific Era I have no name for. But they are tremendously enjoyable as they remind me of my childhood, of easier times where the biggest dilemma was if i wanted pancakes or hotdogs
Post World-of-Warcraft pre Iron Man. It was a good time. The Freedomization wars were cooling off, Hollywood was still dumb but hadn't gotten their hands on big IPs yet either, and phones could do music and maybe some websites. Oh and the housing bubble was getting nice and big. And the music was "r&b", country-rock and emo.
@@JoshSweetvale You mean the 2000s? Post Y2k?
Pancakes, duh.
You mean the Aughts?
@@Silverthief22 i suppose that'd be a good name for it yes
"Like an angry photosynthetic beyblade." This is why I come here.
Writing in this episode is stellar.
Indeed
YEAH MORE SPORE
We love spore
I agree fully with this comment
Now I'm just really curious if its possible to truly genocide everything in spore by killing literally everything in every stage.
Im 90% sure in the cell phase they infinitely respawn
@@BlackoutGootraxian they do
cant in the cell stage, but in the land stage you in fact can. the same goes for the tribal, city, and space stage.
In cell stage as others have said they respawn, in creature stage I believe it's possible to make the entire playable continent go extinct(I tried it once but got bored halfway through - the continent is massive), in tribal stage the creature nests respawn and can't go extinct, in civilization stage there's just cities and epic creatures so after dealing with them it could count as a genocide, and in space stage ... theoretically, it is absolutely possible to genocide everything, though I can't even imagine how long that would take haha
@@lennybjorowitz4256 technically you cant in creature stage bc you cant visit the other continents
The fact that you didn't call it the Herbigore hurts my soul. But still, another comedic masterpiece from one of my favourite channels. Please never stop.
I've only ever known one vegan in my life and she was exactly like this
She had an ass to die for?
Good heavens, this man is so desensitized to this game that he doesn’t even bother coloring his creations anymore.
The vegan bodybuilder analogy about aggression and self righteousness toward all others is spot on
vegan gains in spore
All i see is people complaining about vegans. I don't see the vegan sanctimony. At this point the other side is annoying.

It's hilarious how many amazing lines you can find in these videos. Like a photosynthetic beyblade... Genius.
The first legged version of the creature is way too cute for what it is
I think he's gonna make a carnivore gameplay where he befriends everyone based in the name of this creature 4:36
@@Sucullentbutter He already did. It's from the pacifist carnivore video.
@@nekuro5548 oh ok
Watching the Prius drive around space was hilarious
you know, i think this is the only full spore playthrough ive ever seen. Shocked and marvelled by how your save was spared by the spore gods o7
I recently had the pleasure of talking to someone who worked on Spore. From what she told me it's really a miracle the game ever shipped. If it wasn't for EA, Will Wright and the rest of Maxis would have kept working at it until the studio would've gone bankrupt.
Ea is the worst
@@koiontop5627 I don't think you understand. Spore would have never come out if it wasn't for EA.
@@koiontop5627 EA is the worst but it's also true that they saved Spore.
i think putting the mask on the snout was a sick idea
“Like an angry, photosynthetic beyblade” This is why I come to your content. Nowhere else can I get this specific aesthetic of monologue.
I can not put to words how much I appreciate you doing the 'Challenge everything' at the start of these. Just a lovely piece of nostalgia to get smacked with right out the door.
You can tell if a KZheadr has good content when he travels back in time just to do a spore gameplay
Hot Dog do I love spore, but I still, after almost 15 years, cannot pin down if its a good or bad game.
so true, i think about it more often than id like to admit lol
Yes
It was not a good game gameplay-wise, since it introduced several different game genres within one game through the evolutionary stages, so most people have at least one stage they hate. For example I didn't like the civilization stage and the space stage - I did try them a couple of times, but eventually I went to just stopping to play with that alien race once I completed the tribal stage and then started over again with a new planet and new alien. That was back when Spore was still new and I was a teen with much enthusiasm for simulation type games. I don't like strategy games (only like 1-2), they're just not for me. However Maxis did take a risk with Spore and that I respect very much. It's a shame that no other game has tried to use the evolution concept that Spore had. It could be a better game with some tweaks, an art style change and maybe a new gameplay concept for the different stages.
@@LunaRuna212 you should actually look into the early development of spore, it was gonna be a much more mature game and i personally think it seemed a lot better
one of the most games of all time
I always get confused by "The best offense is a good defense" because it can either mean you are using your defensive prowess to be incredibly aggressive, or it can mean you're using your significant offensive talent to protect yourself, and while they both fit the slogan they are kind of opposites
The best offense is a good offense. The best defense is also usually a really good offense.
Attacking a well defended position is, still to this day, very hard and costly.
defense so great that your enemies are offended and go home
Maybe because that's the wrong sentence, it's a joke. The right one is "the best defense is a good offense". If you are aggressive and attack first, there's no need to defend yourself.
@@j.f.l.bousquet1998 And you can use your incredible toughness to fight through the pain and attack the opponent, which is also the opposite, so there's no difference here
I was just thinking today about how much I love your spore content. I hope you are doing well, my favorite shady amphibian ❤️
@Pedro asd Take a chill pill, dude
7:00 min is my greatest experience watching this channel I have yet experienced!
The editing style changed a lot. Also you’ve started adding more sound effects unless this is a new editor or something. I just realized this video is decently different in its own way. From the script to music/sound effects and jokes
I actually like the fictional implications of an herbivore that feeds off dead, like with a death pit that fertilizes well or grows mushrooms or something
I have an itch something like that exists in insect kingdom, although the closest I can think of is leaf ants shredding shrubs and trees to grow a fungi they feed on.
Trying to kill and eat our enemies but the clap of our dummy thicc ass cheeks alerts them to our presence. So became vegan.
Yes yes the soft and frightened “EA GAMES” sends me every time. Thank you for giving us what we want ❤️
Always love a good philosophical walk down memory lane
"Someone said "Vegan Anarchist Bookstore" and suddenly all began cheering." I've found my people!
sounds like a really nice bookstore
So basically you made the Kicks (Killer Cows) from the Lost Fleet series. Herbivores that reacted to any other sentience with fear, hostility and xenocidal mania in a herd-like desire to shape the universe into your herd's grazing field. Only no one could contain you to your home system.
Youve very quickly become one of my favorite youtubers... idk what it is but your voice puts me at ease when I've had some bad days
I watched some of your older spore videos and actually started doing a run of this exact challenge myself like 4 days ago this is the greatest coincidence lol
posted right before my sleep, thank you! I have watched most of your vids on this channel i started ravaging through your vods :^)
So glad to see you back on spore. Ive watched your spore vids like a million times, easily my favorite of yours
god I've had the way you say "CHALLENGE....EVERYTHING" stuck in my head for weeks and I found it so satisfying that you started another video off with it
I absolutely love the 'challenge everything' intros. Crack up every time.
I really loved this video haven't seen a spore video in a long time certainly a joy to watch. Keep up the good work.
Spore videos are by far your best! Keep em coming!
Spore was amazing and a huge part of my childhood. Hope ppl play it more often
This thiCCCness might get AA age restricted 🤣 I'm so glad I found your channel a few weeks ago, I love your story telling and humor so much. 😎🤙
I freaken love you man.always makes me laugh these clips
your Spore videos make me so damn happy for all its quirks, I love that game
The first second of this video was the absolutely perfect way to start my day. Thank you froggy swimmy
You can make asymmetric creatures in Spore, hold 'a' while selecting a part (I think, it's been a while since I played), and it can lead to some of the most ungodsly creatures ever unleashed onto a game.
The way you talk really calms me down. I always love watching your videos before sleep as they calm me down and help fall asleep. Thank you 🙏
"Video game / disjointed tech demo" Holy shit. He did it. He summed up Spore in five words
The fact that it doesn't need meat to live truly shows that it kills for sport
Always a good day when AA puts out a Spore video
I love that you took my or other peoples comments seriously and tried the space stage, I hope it grows on you, since it's the best stage with the most story plots to be told. You gotta see it as your galaxy wide sandbox for weird shananigans xD
love the spore videos! so excited to watch the VOD
I too have an uncontrollable urge to come back to this game every year
I'm incredinly impressed yet at the same time disturbed by your ability to create a spore creature with actually quite inviting posterior.
Good to see you alive, there are vids but i was going into withdrawal because of lack of content here
You may not post often but when you do it's dam good videos
Congrats you recreated what is a essentially a hippo that became sentient
At some point in the tribal stage, this started to feel uncannily human. Attacking others not for food but just because we wanted to defeat them ... whew! Back to the buttpads now. 😅
And again with the Algernon Empire being okay about the player buying them off while their civilisation was razed to the ground 💀
I've loved so many of your videos. This one had me laughing out loud.
Dude this is great content. Love the commentary 👌🏻😂
As a vegetarian I want to thank you for this accurate documentary. Finally we are being portrayed for who we really are.
Go vegan. Stop exploiting animals.
Didn't know milk and eggs are plants
I'm surprised you dont like the space age, its my absolute favorite part about spore! Spread the vegan love of hatred and war across the universe!
I really do love your stuff man. Thanks for sharing.
The narratives you weave are always great to see
As an angry vegan I approve of this content. Edit: guys this did not deserve this many likes calm down
I salute you
Yeah, nutrient deficiencies are often a cause of mood disorders
@@moistloaf3854 please elaborate on these magical nutrients that don't exist in plants
@@L454RU5 Well you got your cholesterol, your arachadonic acid, your prions, your endotoxins... Wait... All those things are BAD!! Shit.
@@L454RU5 Well, vitamin B-12 is the big one, along with iron and zinc (and yes I know all these things can be found in certain plants, but they're less plentiful than in animal products and can develop into deficiencies over time). Don't get me wrong, I think veganism is great for the planet and I eat vegan at least once a week, but it's important to acknowledge that our diets can be lacking in some nutrients.
"Vegan Anarchist Bookstore" absolutely killed me
Thank you for existing, you make amazing videos. I love the videos you make so funny.
Congrats on 1 mill!!
I could tell how strong and evolved these species were when they started hunting down milk cartons and pouring them on supermarket store floors
I’ve ruined the word smooth brain for myself
YESSSSSS God I love your spore videos! Hello from France!
The delivery of the jokes is some of the best shit I've heard in year. I've not been disappointed by any video I've watched so far.
Anyone notice his energy is different in a good way? It's like a fully refined individual reaching the apex mentality of such monstrous origins
"The best offense is a good defense" is actually a quote by Primarch Rogal Dorn, master of architecture, tactics and defense against siege warfare.
Loved it. Thanks for the awesome video.
Listening without watching the video leaves so much more to the imagination with how you narrate these videos and I'm all for it.
Had a stressful day. Came back to see this great video. Heck yeah!
My intense, unquenchable desire for efficiency, makes it hard for me to be a violent monster in the space stage. It’s because that if you destroy Species HomeWorld, you only get the colonizer up to three cities. But if you buy or befriend into possession of their home world, get to keep all 12 of their cities that HomeWorlds normally come with. That or you have to be a zealot and use your zealot super weapon on the HomeWorld to convince them to jump over to your side and then you can otherwise be a monster. But then you have to wait for your super weapon every single time
Love the vids keep up the good work love you broo
idk why but the preeus made me LOL so hard. good stuff AA, you never disappoint!
Kindivore vs Harmivore is a battle for the ages. Whichever way it'd end, the victor is going home hungry.
Sustainable cannons. Finally a civ playthrough that even vegans can enjoy
For sure the best thing I've seen all year
I knew you'd eventually get to this game, the options you have are perfect for your type of content
Best part of my week is when you upload🫶
As a vegan u approve the peaceful ways of these creatures, moral violence
Nitch?? NITCH?? MY BROTHER IN AMPHIBIANS- As always, love to see you upload man. Puts a smile on my face every time.
