@@MAGAMAN i dont mind paying for things i enjoy. if you dont like it then youre free to do something else enjoyable with your time. not sure why people get so triggered over games
@@hugh.g.rection5906 mostly because, in the persute of exploiting the flaws and limitations of the human brain, the games are actually made Worse (you can actually see the decline in quality if you compare itterations of the same game in sports series when you want to make it really obvious) in order to facilitate ever more exploitative monitisation systems. Most people are quite happy to pay up front for a good game, and even make recuring payments for actually beneficial ongoing services. It's Everything Else that causes the negative reactions.
Buy used DVDS and game disks. Oh, an buy refurbished laptops and PCs with optical drives for PC games and DVDs. Cancel your subscription service and go borrow a DVD from the library instead.
But what about the upgrades and DLC? What, you mean a game was something in one package that was supposedly finished the first time and you didn't have to login to a nannystate hosting service to play it?
I'm glad I'm old enough to have had simple, usable, RELIABLE products... Nearly all of which MADE IN AMERICA OR CANADA... Giving all the jobs and good salaries to US!! Not children in a 3rd world country. It truly was, "good old days".
Mhm! And, they fill back up at a rate of 5 spirits per day. So, if you miss a few days, you’re ACTIVELY wasting money! (Questionable) daily engagement strategies for the win! 😂
You *will* need to upgrade, though, it's in the terms of service you signed (which also gives permission to use your soul for Ouija++, the upcoming premium service where they murder you and you can try out the service from the other side).
@@klaibefhuoaiuwehjklbdfsnxnikI don't know, they seem pretty AI generated to me. I can't put my finger on it, but it just all feels ever so slightly off.... just like most AI generated images. The real nail in the coffin for me was when they were talking about expansion packs and showed the Fortnite Chapter 1 Island... it's just not quite right...
My mum said the only real Ouija board that worked were those made by hand. And they needed a tea cup with fresh tea leaves as the planchette. We'd make her a pot of tea while she wrote the alphabet and the yes or no on a piece of paper. She would relax and drink the tea. Then we'd do the witchy stuff. Funny, the spirits that we contacted always said stuff like, "clean your room" or "get your mother another cup of tea."
That seems to be a normal thing. My spirits said the same, they didn't even need a Ouija board. I just heard disembodied voices that mimicked the voice of my mother. It was really creepy. Usually I was just laying around being lazy and suddenly there it was again, sounding like it came from the living room, and wouldn't stop until I did their bidding. I wonder why I know they sound like my mother. She died before my birth.
I like to think his friend is being possessed by a marketing ghost. The way he talks like a commercial, yet is in clear pain during certain responses, like his inner self is trying to fight.
Tbh if Ryan genuinely launched this people would buy it, it's not like people think it's real anyway and people pay good money for dodgy horoscope apps so might as well pay for out of copyright fictional characters or historical people to tell them stuff instead lol
So why do you keep buying products? You know most of these things are luxury items that you don't need to be happy? So why are you rewarding bad business practices?
@@julianatorquato7796 Naturally, why would anyone want to purchase access to the entire package when they could get just the parts that they need for their business? Think of the savings for your organization by subscribing to the seance model that works for you without all the extra addons you don't use.
I was waiting for the sponsor at the end because those images are really well made. Great job putting that much effort into a 2 min sketch, it doesn't go unnoticed.
It's astounding how you always manage to make our society's dystopianisms hilarious. You are a true gift to the world so please do not purchase the "straight to hell" bundle.
Ryan, your work is usually genius. This one was Genius+ (And it was followed by an ad for a language service that sounded EXACTLY like your costly Ouija+ ... the algorithm spirits were listening)
I know what you meant but making an effort to be helpful - add for addition - ad for advertisement - Also in many ways the algorithm is a spirit with how much listening in on you the internet does.
The absolute discipline to make the "straight to hell bundle" the modern hell price of $139.99 and not the antique hell price of $666. That is some delicious comedy chops.
This is hilarious. As a kid I was always like why is it prounounced weejee? Love the humor and effort of this. The art for the loot boxes and spirit coins freddy krueger and lord voldemort... so good I worked at an extremely relevant video game company for years. you'd be surprised (prolly not) at the amount of cash ppl dump into loot crates and unique weapons etc... it's absurd. kinda telling. kinda frightening
As much of a red hate to spend money on a game like that, I've always wondered what it would be like to hit the billion dollar lottery and just buy every single item on one game from day one just to destroy the other players. 😄
@@CliftonPhotographer my favorite thing was to find a bunch of exploits at work and use them against the public til we pushed the update 😂 and I wasn't a regular tester so the bugs I found could do a lot
This is phenomenal! Conceptually this is over the moon and the execution is perfect as always. So many good elements to this but the real cherry on top for me is that soundtrack! I could have laughed the whole time at just that music playing. Thank you so much sir!
@@howardmckenna Was about to say, an already unstable or mischievous spirit, denied the ability to communicate... yeah, that doesn't sound like a recipe for a nice safe home environment...
Oh so you have spirit shelves too? I used to get annoyed when my things kept mysteriously falling off of them in the middle of the night, but then I remembered, lots of people have cats.
@@ODespertarColetivo I think they meant "I guarantee [to] you [that] people," and not "I guarantee _you people."_ Generally, if the person is speaking to someone, second person pronouns refer to who they are speaking to. Since the comment is directed toward Ryan, "you" should refer to Ryan, not the audience. So, a more clear version of the comment would be: "Ryan, you know you just gave someone a business idea, right?😂. -Because- Ryan, I GUARANTEE you that people would pay for this"
To round the experience out, it should ask for email, maybe optional surveys, mandatory 5 stars, social security, blood type, resume, and a 30 page thesis on the meaning of "The".
@@itsaidicoulddofiftyletterswhy It shouldn't be too hard to make depending on how it's handled. It would be easiest if you could select from a range of questions instead of letting the player type in whatever nonsense. Then getting the marker to go from letter to letter should be fairly simple.
This is too accurate! I'm laughing and grunting at this because it's funny and Ryan's delivery is perfection as always, but this is so accurate to all streaming platforms
This was hilarious and very enjoyable as always, Ryan does NOT miss with his sketches. But at the same time this made me sad and incredibly worried because this is what the world has come to and it ain’t nice.
To be just a slight bit serious on this... The thing is... one doesn't have to pay. They can simply do something else. Sure, you'll be ridiculed by others and/or clueless as to what the big deal is when everyone else pays up like the sheeple idiots they are for succumbing to the lure of paying for pleasure(*), but hey, you were a staunch person, standing up to the ideals of 'the world shouldn't suck like that'. (*) - DLCs and such ilk practices are a form of prostitution, when you think about it...
Obvious attempts to turn people into mindless drones. Weapons training, expand your stockpiles, go off-grid, fortify your home, school yourself in horticulture & agriculture...
@@Velvetx4coveI mean, we already have to pay to exist, even though we didn't choose that. We're told we're not allowed basic essentials if we don't work, then we're told we're not allowed to enjoy healthcare and education unless we are super wealthy or willing to go into debt. Money was created for the sole purpose of giving power to those with the majority of it over those with the least of it. Jobs aren't for sustaining society, they're for making others rich off the backs of those doing all the work and bringing that money in. Money doesn't need to exist, nor does our dependence on it.
@@englishatheart We can't even give birth for free nor drink clean water for free. And you're completely right. We didn't even always use money as a currency and we were completely fine without it. No necessity should be locked behind a paywall. I can't even die without thousands of dollars coming out of someone's wallet. What the hell is that about? A system based on exploitation like this is NOT sustainable.
You forgot the part where your don't actually own the actual board anymore, but a copy that you have to get online in exchange for minutes of your life. It's all ridiculously completed, but basically they give you the unique experience of using money and human lifespans as currency to keep using the board now.
Lemme guess how it ends He does a backflip, snaps the bad guy's neck, and saves the day. As long as Screenwriter Guy and Producer Guy aren't on the trend of subverting expectations because they think one-time shock value is better than an every-time satisfying payoff.
Wouldn't be the first time a comedian makes a full animated movie with great success where he's the only voice actor... So why not live action as well.
Just as brilliant as always. And I loved it, but feel a bit sad because of the state of the society. Classic Ryan George. How could you not love him? One love ❤️
Producer guy: it’ll probably be hard to come up with a Halloween related game, right? Game developer guy: no it’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience Producer guy: oh really Game developer guy: we’ll just make a ouija board with ads and in-board purchases, AAANNNDDD an option to send you straight to hell. Producer guy: and people will buy that? Game developer guy; yeah yeah yeah
Producer guy: It turns out sending paying customers to hell is not a great way to get recurring revenue. Game developer guy: Which is why we've just introduced the Ouija+: Back from Hell recovery service, just $79.95 a month for the rest of your life
Thank you for everything, Ryan George. You're undoubtedly the best comedian in the world who consistently provides truly funny pitch meetings, and skits on this channel. Please live very long and prosper! 🖖 💀🙏🎃👻🪄🔮
@@RebeccaTurner-ny1xx Delighted to see that the ad campaign is paying off! All one has to do is to get the password from the guy at the corner of one’s street (that’s a reference to Ryan George’s video from Friday the 13th of October, 2023: “What using the internet is like in 2023”). Once one has access to Leonard Nimoy’s spirit’s spiritual waiting room, one will be put on hold for a while. It’s not explicitly stated, but it’s an informal endurance test to see that only the most devoted people get access to Leonard Nimoy‘s spirit. Otherwise, Leonard Nimoy‘s spirit has reported that: “It feels thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.” The hold music is Leonard Nimoy singing “The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins.“ It is available on RU-vid in case one wishes to practice listening beforehand. All one has to do is listen to the hold music for 5 consecutive hours between 11 PM and 6 AM on three consecutive dates prior to the full moon. And then Bob’s your uncle! Thank you for your interest in Leonard Nimoy’s spirit! 🖖
Very likely is AI generated art. If you look closely at the irregularities of Lincolns hand, Jack the Rippers coat buttons and other details you'll see common occurrences of AI art.
It's so true. Companies are no longer happy to get your money once. They need to make sure they can take your money until the end of time. Great sketch!
I wish real social media platforms took our security seriously enough to ban users who go against community standards. The really big ones, like harassment or bullying
It's feels like a missed opportunity to not have this video sponsored. Whoever would've sponsored this would've immediately gotten some serious coolness points in my book. :-)
Thank you sir, you've managed to condense my hatred of almost everything I've tried to watch or play in the last few years into a single video. Missed the experience of have him sign a multi-page T&C before he could start playing, though. "Wait, it just moved to 'Yes' before I could even finish reading the first paragraph."
Just thought about RYAN GEORGE + with Extra Jokes & Deleted Scenes & Stuff Like That. Realized we already get all the jokes we need! Which is... JUST GREAT!
