If you need your balls scratched - hit me up, got a CBA (cock&balls' aerodynamics) bachelor's degree at the Bellend college in Massachusetts, ill fix u up good
From the point Schlatt was almost killed onwards this legit felt like a movie. The leader of a small group of survivors is shot and nearly dies and they all risk their lives trying to find supplies to save him, only for everyone except him to be killed when a storm hits and they run into the wrong person. It legit worked out in such a perfectly tragic way, it almost feels scripted lol.
Even more movie like when you realize they ran into that guy earlier in the city, he's the dude who threatened them with his connections before they killed him
The really cool part about Terrence's death is that it almost feels foreshadowed, in every crucial moment his gun jammed but he always lived through it somehow, and of course the reason he dies is because his gun jams at a crucial gunfight causing his death, feels like a story the whole way through, awesome improv and characters, props to slim squiter and Terrence for being cool as hell
God. This was genuinely a masterpiece. The big ballers, the rush for the hospital, the climactic shootout, the lone survivor too distraught to live...THIS is what real zombie apocalypses are. The dread. The fear. The unlikely friendships, cut down in an instant. Godspeed Slim Jim Meat Industry, Terrence, and Squibbledy(?). You were all the good the world had left.
It is astonishing to me that there aren't nearly as many zombie movies that are to this level / about the human condition, the logistics, the distrust, the climactic shootout, and specifically the dread. Even then, the majority of them that are like this are shows. Too obsessed with "the how" and "the why" of the apocalypse with complete disregard for what it would actually feel like long term. Where do you sleep? Do you try to socialize or play it alone? Do you have a plan? Your gun jammed and you hear your friend that you thought was already dead continue fighting, do you swap to your pistol that only has 3 rounds or do you take the necessary time to clear the jam and pray they stay alive long enough? These are very intriguing concepts that get left out to dry way too often so it's nice to see them executed here. I'm saying this as if it's scripted but that just makes it worse if non-scripted gameplay of a modded release of an arma 2 mod can be infinitely more entertaining than most movies of the same genre
@@j.t.1280f I’m in a situation where one my buddies are kinda fucked I got a Jammed gun and three shots in my other gun I’d just use the last 3 bullets at the fucker to give my mate an opportunity and myself more time to clear the jammed gun
2:11:47 The irony of Terrance saying “Schlatt” would keel over in 10 minutes when he himself would be shot to death less than 10 minutes later is impeccable
1:35:25 He told Terence that one day he might tell him what “Pops” meant. He never got the chance to hear it, but it got out there in the end. Long live Terence, Squeeter, Slim Jim Meat Industry, and most importantly Popsicle stick “Pops” Schlatt, if not in life, in memory
Goddamn I know I'm late to the party but this is a cinematic masterpiece. The subtle details are really what make the story so engaging and captivating, like at the end when they are all going to commit group suicide and the guy that doesn't know how to count shoots himself at the wrong number was perfect. The way the main characters interact with each other is so immersive it's like they've known each other for years. each character including pops has their own unique personality. The chapter where Pops is brutally injured and everything is greyscale is so tense and atmospheric and I couldn't help but grab my seat every time shit started to hit the fan. The ending is genuinely amazing and really gets you at the edge of your seat. The entire time I wanted to think that maybe Squieter and Slim were still alive but deep down, I knew. I think that is what truly made this story so heart-wrenching and inspiring.
2:14:00 The climactic shootout takes place… RIP slim Jim… best we ever knew. RIP Terence. Protected pops with his life. RIP Squeeter. His last thoughts were loyal RIP Popsicle stick… after all his friends sacrificed their lives to keep him alive, he avenged them, and he threw away the life that his friends spent their lives to give him, because he couldn’t live it without them.
“Eat frying pan, granny. Fuckin’ whore” - Squeeter defending Pops “They turn into raging monsters and start bleedin’ out their cooch.” - Squeeter on women Just some wise words from Squeeter
Schlatt feels really in his element in DayZ. It's really interesting and fun to watch the friendships rise and fall, and things get so real, yet still being funny.
very glad to see the return of dayz, this game provides a wonderful outlet for "schlatt" to vent his violent tendancies without endangering real citizens
2 hours and 32 minutes of pure art it was like a movie there were moments I was at the edge of my seat moments that were so intense I was biting my fingernails and the climax wow how emotional everyone was gone and popsicle stick was the last man standing a proper tear jerker I checked rotten tomatoes gave it a 98% and IMDb 9/10 amazing we’ll done
Schlatt I know you probably won't see this but this was actually better than most movies I've seen in the past 5 years. I, a grown ass man, physically stood up during some of those last moments of the stream lol. I fully understand why you might not, but I highly, highly, encourage you to upload some of this stuff to the live channel. This is merely on the vod channel but I'll remember this story for a long, long ass time. Masterpiece of a video and it is absolutely amazing this was completely unscripted.
This is a top quality stream, from Pops befriending Slim, Terrance and Squieter to watching them all go down in glory, to Pops going insane and being the last survivor and taking himself out. Good stuff.
The Siege of Pops Shack was so nerve racking, and hearing all of Pops partners sacrifice themselves for the big guy himself was so sad. Rest In Peace Squeeter, Terrance, and biggest man out there, Slim Jim
Okay the chemistry between slim and pops is just amazing lmaooooo Them trying to hold in their laughs while talking back and forth is *chef's kiss* EDIT: uhm okay wtf???? This video was a fucking movie. The fact that Schlatt found the alcohol on that dude's body in the end is the part that hurt the most. wtf. PAIN T-T
These DayZ streams are some of the very best stuff you've ever done, imo, but somehow I completely missed watching this one last year. Just totally passed me by, despite being something I looked forward to so much after the initial streams. That being said, the Slim Jim run literally felt like a movie. Sometime earlier into the stream you said, "I prefer to craft my own narrative," and then the rest of the stream literally proved why that element of the game is so cool by featuring communal comradery between distinct characters, unexpected conflicts, a gruelling escort mission where the once-great-leader falls gravely ill, and finally a downright morosely tragic finish. That classic run with Dapper was already genuinely narrative but this ended up being on a whole other level. On paper, this shit literally reads like ideas for a script. Really really hoping you keep these up, even if it's just a rarity each year. I just wish it were easier to access the full unedited VOD as well; I love watching the quiet nothing sections you understandably cut out from the final RU-vid cut.
this felt like a whole fucking film. I didnt know how to react for the ending it was so amazing. This is some of the best shit i have watched in a while
This was the most captivating peice of media I've experienced in years. I genuinely can't remember the last time I was as sucked in as the last 18 minutes of this masterpeice.
The fact someone asked him what pops meant and he said he didn't want to talk about it until the ending he finally said it before he died...schlatt needs to do more DayZ streams
So sad that u playing dayZ doesn’t get as many views as ur other content, especially because you enjoy it so much. Hopefully dayZ will get as much numbers as ur other stuff soon keep doing what ur doing king
I am not kidding when I say that those last 30 minutes were the greatest thing I have ever seen on youtube. Whoever was in control of the music when editing A++ job bro
“I’ve always had a silver tongue, people would tell me. Spent the last twenty years of this apocalypse using my skills to manipulate others into doing my dirty work. I’ve run with a lot of gangs, both good and bad. I’ve lied, cheated and murdered my way through these wastes. I did whatever it took to survive… but then things changed. First it was Slim. Middle-aged fella that kept his hair all white and spiky. I thought it made him stick out too much, he thought it made him look mature. Then there was Terrance. So strong. So capable of taking the lead, yet he never tried my authority. Then… Squirter. He was a laugh. Everyone needs a Squirter… It started out like any other con. Lured the three into a false alliance with me. I was just gonna use them to get through the noisy part of town and maybe snag some of their goods once night hit… but then I got injured. A bullet just barely reaching deep enough to graze the side of my skull. Just the wound itself would’ve left a nasty scar, but it wouldn’t have been enough to kill me. No, that was taken care of by the infection that followed. Day after day I got sicker and sicker, but the boys never gave up on me. They towed me from building to building, getting us to the hospital as quickly as they could. They saved my life on many occasions. It was right around this time when things started to change. As I faced what could potentially be my last few days, I reflected back on my life. The choices I’d made- the people I’d manipulated. Sure, many of them had been evil…but many had been just like these guys. Against all odds, we got the medication I needed, and things were looking up. The fever broke almost immediately, and I was able to stand on my own two feet without much issue. Not only had my physical condition improved, but my outlet on life had been altered as well. Maybe I really could be a Big Baller. …and then the attack happened… We were hunkered down in a house while I finished recovering, when gunfire broke out just outside the front door. I was just about to grab my gun and go help when I heard Slim scream for me to stay back. While I had changed my ways, I knew they’d try to protect me if I got in the way, so I decided to hang back with Terrance. What a mistake that was. By the end of the night, everyone but I had fallen. For the first time in my life, I had people I would truly fight for…and now they were gone. Was it a punishment? Had god decided it was too late for me? It didn’t matter the reason; all I knew was, I was alone again. So here I am, beaten and broken, with a barrel pointed at my own head. Even at the very end, I still managed to convince some young’ns that ending their lives with me would be better than continuing on. Better than doing whatever it takes to survive. Better than fighting off the wretched horrors outside. Better than gaining a real family, only to lose them… But hey, like I said, I’ve always had a silver tongue….” 💥
How can something be so funny and yet so heartbreaking? Rest in peace, Slim, Clearance, and Squirter. And Pops? Popsicle Stick? Avenging the murders of your friends before going out on your own terms, AND bringing two others out with you? Man, you're the real big baller, here. And may your balls never itch again.
the ending was almost poetic, pops lost everyone that ever meant something to him, after they all did everything they could to save his life, but for pops, without them, it wasnt a life worth living
Schlatt you have single handedly made me one of the biggest fans of your content. I watched the whole VGHS Vod and then this masterpiece was presented right to my feet and my god this what makes you one of the best content creators to face the earth.
The last two DayZ streams were really great, this one was even better. This was also the second stream i got to watch completely live which makes it a whole more special :)
i absolutely love your dayz streams Your ability to create such beautiful rp content like with dayz or even your old sub rosa videos never ceases to amaze me keep up the good work chief
This is the best day z video I have ever watched it’s not some story with a bunch of raiding and stuff it’s just some dudes playing the game and the story just being made as it goes and the ending was so amazing more dramatic most movies and it was so funny too I would love to see more of these day z streams
