@@SamSeriesInc many foreign words can sound like english words or be spelled the same (this is known as a false cognate), but have different meanings, they were just clarifying. The same can be applied to other languages as well, for example: "burro" in spanish means "donkey" but in "burro" in italian means "butter".
It really is. The sweetest things about dead games is that almost all of these games so far has the friendliest players and that is the best thing ever :D
Dude seriously, it's heartwarming how wholesome he approaches others players in these games. When I play online with a headset I meet a nice person like every 100 matches lol. And I'm always trying to be nice and talkative.

Oh yeah, it's wholesome af and I love it. It's bittersweet in a way, because the people who have died since the game's release who used to be regulars, but they're effectively immortalized so they won't be forgotten. Plus, it shows they left an impact
It’s sad but it is also one of the best games ever for that exact reason. Personally I never played it however I was a heavy RuneScape player and I think it would’ve been awesome to incorporate memorials there too. Most games do not stay around long enough to even make these memorials and I think it really gives importance to all that time and interactions those who have passed made in their time
About Beyond The Wire, the community play sessions are every Saturday at 10am PDT / 1pm EST / 5pm GMT. One of the recent sessions got to 56 players. I've been playing Beyond The Wire for over 2 years and we've created an awesome community I am proud to be apart of. The game has been through a number of ups and downs and we've weathered through them and continue to play and have fun.
I love how heartwarming old game servers are. There's something so personal about the connection - I think a lot of big servers are overwhelming, and you never really get to know anyone.
Hey ! Im french and that french little guy was so cute, im just gonna translate the words in french that he asked you : - "Fusil" that means gun - "Casque" that means helmet - "Gilet" that means a vest -"Ciel" that means Sky, i don't know why the kid say "Tiel" but it's Ciel :) -"Téléphone" that means a phone Yes i am flexing my french but i thinks it's great to know for the culture lol
Thank you so much for looking at Beyond the Wire. To this day, it remains the biggest disappointment in my experience of playing video games. I was extremely passionate about this game and followed the development of it more closely than I have any other game in the past. I've said this before on a previous video of yours, but I'll say it again. I was a dev tester for that game and for the longest time, I believed that it was going to be the next big tac shooter on PC. But through a painstaking series of bad decisions including a stupidly high early access price tag, abysmal optimization, lack of a progression system, and a SEVERE lack of marketing, Beyond the Wire met its demise extremely early. The devs didn't lower the price until well after the game died, which was a huge slap in the face to the community- or, what was left of it. I think that the "paradox" of dead games is honestly really disheartening; that being if a game is dead, people will stop playing the game and write a negative review for the game citing that the game is dead, which steers away potential new players from buying the game. That's exactly what happened to Beyond the Wire. It was one of my favorite games on Steam, and to see it suffer such a tragic fate was a huge disappointment.
WW1 shoters were never very popular to begin with, even Verdun/Isonzo that are pretty casual. WW1 just isn't "popular" history like WW2 or Vietnam. Add to that even more realism, which keeps most people away and there is a very small target audience left. But yeah you're right, most the already small potential playerbase is most likely gonna see those videos and titles about a dead game and not bother anymore.
As a Beyond the Wire player , I can tell you that we refuse to let this game die .No matter what , we connect every Saturday and keep it alive somehow and in some way . It deserved so much better for how fun it is .
Man it's awesome to see your channel getting the recognition it deserves. You make some awesome content. Love the theme of these vids, give some great exposure to games long forgotten by most and the nostalgia for those of us who played them is ace
God I miss H1Z1. Most memorable session was with a few buddies when we got the cop car and went around picking people up we found, handcuffing them and taking them to jail while role playing as some horrible southern accented sheriffs.
man your videos are so wholesome. As a gamedev, it's easy to get lost in the sea of toxic gamers and sometimes we forget there are some really amazing, sweet people out there. Watching your videos and seeing some amazing gaming community is such a breath of fresh air
i dont know why but i always find this type of video interesting. it´s almost like videogame archeology. this vids will definetly be seen in the future for studying games of certain eras. BTW as recommendation you should check out project reality. it´s a tactical hardcore shooter with bots and that´s barely alive at certain timezones last time i checked. very in-depth mechanics
Me and my friends used to play H1Z1 all the time. We hoped back on it a few months ago to see if it was still up and we spend and hour on it and could only get in 1 game that even had 3 people in it. I always find these videos really depressing. These games we used to spend countless hours on and had great memories and now it’s just empty, almost feels post apocalyptic.
It warms my heart to see young people playing these old dead games in your videos.. These young fellow gamers reminds me of my younger self when enjoying games back then. I did not care about content, updates, any kind of shit we see today. Back then we all just played and enjoyed games how they were. I miss these times. RIP NeoSteam, Allods
Battle cry of freedom was a really fun game when it first released, multiple servers with 100s of people in it, sadly the game died and lost players extremely fast after about 2 weeks and now it is how it is now.
I’m out of the loop on what’s popular, so this series is helping me avoid some dead games (many of which I’d probably like). I did play Beyond the Wire when it was new, but I was pretty terrible at it. Steam still tries to recommend Blackwake to me, probably because it’s similar to Holdfast, which I played constantly a year or so ago. Most recently I tried (and enjoyed) PUBG, but the level disparity was brutal. It’s no fun being level 12 and continually coming up against guys at level 250+.
This is so wholesome. I recently got back into playing custom servers on Neverwinter Nights and it blew my mind that there were still groups of people playing on them twenty years later and just over a decade from when I played last time. I've noticed that folks there are far friendlier than in popular modern games and go out of their way to help you out (to grow their community, but also because they genuinely love playing those games).
hey rye, starting off I came across your channel a few weeks ago, brings back nostalgia with the music choices and the games you play. Kinda shocked you played BCoF, being such a niche game, I recommend playing commander battles since thats where that came shines, its a little difficult to first learn since they use the command F1-F10 keys to issue orders to your troops, if you want some fellas to teach ya me and a few friends would be down :) but if not keep up the good work rye, you hit my 22 year old ass in the feels every one of these exploration videos lmao
Battle Cry of Freedom (BCOF) had so much potential. Still does, but the devs made so many mistakes after release, they killed their own game. BCOF could have been on par with games like Holdfast or War of Rights, but alas
i love this series bro, please keep it up. there’s so many of these dead games you’ll never run out of content. maybe switch it up and make a dedicated video to a specific dead game you’re partial too, but what do i know i’m not a youtuber
Damn black wake and BCoF really hit me hard. I played both when they were popular and the servers were full of players. BCoF you'd go bayonet charge their cannon line, and then go sing in a church choir with your boys. In black wake you'd sip tea over the bodies of your dead opponents. Good times. Am I getting old?
ive watched a handful of this series at least i believe so, and everyone of these videos have their own special moments and its fucking amazing. plus the transition music is a bop
Rye, I randomly found your vids as a recommendation from IGP.. I LOVE your abandonware vids and dead games. Going to have to dive deeper into your vid library more! Sub Subscured!
GayBreak made ton of pleasure "hotfixes" in their H1Z1. Inverted recoil - You spread from top to bottom, but the bullets go reverse, some buildings and interiors not showing graphic, flying cars (easy to cheat) and bugged hitmarkers. Amazing game, of course family friendly very nice KIND people in lobby :D
Take some of these games and do community games with more. Like blackwake for example. I remember its early days where each team had multiple ships, the captains were trying to communicate with eachother while giving the people on their ship orders, it was very hectic and intense all the time, ship battles is cool in game, shame theres not more of it.
Back in 2016, Blackwake used to be a great tactical team-based competitive game with not large but stable community. The game was really fun in its classic naval 3v3 combat without bots, forts and some cheap stuff the devs inplemented to make the game easier for new players. These changes made the game unchallenging and less skill based. It was one of my favourite games and I miss those times
Found ur video 2 days ago now i am big fan for the content ur providing It brings tears to me talking with people from other countries when u play dead games and old games the memories u make damn that feeling is intense And finding kind people I wish i had a pc Tq for this great video ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
These videos have such an interesting premise, and they show me games I could have never known existed, like Worlds Online, which went live before I was even born. I also hugely appreciate the usage of Toby Foxes Undertale music, it gives the video another great touch.
I think it would be really cool if you covered "Angels Fall First" It's a spiritual successor to some of the ideas that they wanted to implement into the old star wars battlefront 3. Space combat with pilotable capital ships that fighters can launch from and such. Boarding enemy ships. It's pretty dead, but I think it deserves more love.
Ive watched quite a few of "dead" games what ive worked out the community arent toxic there to have fun and they are aways willing to help new members like that chinese person. Such a wholesome moment
Just came across your channel, I actually enjoy these videos lol. Some of these games I want to pick back up and play again watching this. Star Wars Battlefront 2 is a nostalgia game for me. Unfortunately PC is lagging bad on those servers still.
21:05 WW2 Online, I tried joining a server but it would not work. I have to accept that it wasn't worth my time, then again the micro (more macro) transactions are horrendous. Definitely deserves to be reviewed negatively
The best memories i made where from either minecraft tutorial worlds or cops and robbers and other games but i cherish those memories because they helped me through school and just being around people i cared for on those games but its what still helped me through depression and anxiety but ill check these games out aswell
Man, H1Z1 back in the good GOLDEN days, before King of the Kill, when PlayerUnknown was the creator of the BR mode. Those days were the best! I believe it was back in 2015 or something like that. With the OG map of course. It was what got me into Battle Royale games, getting together with my friends almost every day playing it. Eventually, we all migrated to PUBG once that was released to the public.
Im a big fan of Squad, Hell let loose and similar games so i played Beyond the Wire while it was in closed beta testing and it was actually really really good, just released at the wrong time for me. Really sad that the game died so fast, I saw so much potential..
I live in China and the amount of nice guys you can meet on online games is heartwarming. Yeah you meet some duds, but most are super chill and just want to relax. And it's bu ke qi (Boo Ku Chee) Mr. Rye.
Hey Rye!! I believe you should try out the division 1 or 2 not that it's a dead game but the player base is slowly having a decline and I just wanna see it again within a lime-light
beyond the wire was great during the early access period (2020 mostly), lot of fun memories, I used to blast music with soundpad, sadly it never grew, I guess ww1 is not as popular as 2 for a setting
I played Battlecry of Freedom when it first came out and it was honestly one of the best experiences I've had playing games. Its unfortunate its dead now.
God, thinking of kids playing FPS games I always think of the cringy squeakers in COD lobbies. But watching this series has restored a little bit of hope in humanity seeing these foreign kids having wholesome interactions with you.
Figured I'd go into my own dead game experience here, for a little bit. So last year they came out with a hero shooter called Gundam Evolution, obviously, based around Mobile Suit Gundam. It is genuinely some of the most fun with a hero shooter I have ever had, with interesting movement tech and gunplay with fun characters in the form of the different mobile suits they've added over the seasons. They really managed to balance the amount fan service the game had as well as how fun the actual game was. Unfortunately, the game is coming to a close here soon, on the 29th of November. It'll be a sad time to see it shut down, but I had an absolute blast with it from start to finish. If I can give anyone a recommendation, try it out before it shuts down. It's a great time.
U didn't expect to see WWII online here! I nust say that it's a really nice game once you get going in a squad of people. There are folks with 20+ years of experience, but the game has a certain charm to it
