Games that go too far with their graphics

Delvin wants Skycraft to have perfect graphics

[Cludnugget]

So Dev is the backstory to Honeywood's self aware NPCs?
Brilliant. 👏👏👏

This explains why sorcerer Baradun is ludicrously powerful and handsome (patch notes words, not mine), and why all the NPC's dislike Greg so intensely! Adam created a simulated reality where his douchebag boss is at the bottom of the social ladder, is forced to interact with every single player, while not being able to ever leave, and is forced to just swallow insult and disrespect on the regular. In the episode where Greg is temporarily given a wife, the patch notes literally say "did not mean to make Greg happy". Such vindictiveness! I love these guys.

The "ignores player requests but sees one YT comment" feels very real :'D

[AmblingAardvark-nh]

This reminds me of the Carl Sagan quotation: "If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe"

[Darkbeast]

It's impressive that that is the extent of the lag given what he's simulating.

[jppf]

It has gone full circle .... Now we know why it's so photorealistic

[Ourobius]

I love how you kept in the re-take of the photosynthesis line. Fits perfectly with the character.

[scientist]

Oh so that explains how Greg gets sentient.

[AlexeiZagaiciuc]

The only question now is how Delvin later managed to optimise the game enough to keep the sentient NPCs, but still make it playable live, as we know that it did eventually become popular online.

[fioamateeglin]

Hats off to Adam. The explanation line was so long and he made it sound natural. ✨

[pyktkmrge]

O SHIT I was not expecting a lore drop for why skycraft has sentient npcs ! I love it!

[XtremeKll]

The way they made this loop around to being the company that makes the game they've been making videos about is genius.

[BeckettLeung]

"... similating life itself!" And then YouTube chose that moment to lag so I thought the circular white loading graphic was part of the video. I was prepared to call it genius until I looked again 🤣

Jokes on us, we are the so-called sentient "NPC"s in Delvin's fully working replica of the entire universe.

[Jimorian]

It plays DOOM by creating not only the author of DOOM, but a civilization that creates computers that the author can create and then run DOOM on.

[linweihao]

bro taught himself complex astroquantum physics, molecular biology, ecology, and created the universe in a simulation just for a game. Bro literally became a god. what perplexes me even more is how and where the company is storing all this processing power to render 1 frame every 10 seconds

[crashandersen]

I like how they left in Adam repeating himself at 2:02. Its like his lack of sleep is causing his brain to skip and repeat. Very realistic of someone working overtime, and i speak from personal experience.

[michaelscarlata]

Thank you for dealing with the Delvins in the world, I am a Delvin, I know how difficult we can be, I'm sorry, we just get really excited because it's such cool stuff! lol. I haven't laughed this hard at a video in years, thank you for making this!

[epicfail]

I love how the boss forgot about the costs from the sheer extreme Delvin went to

[LordGilien]

2:58 Wait...is that the official explanation for why some of the NPCs are sentient? Did we actually just get the official explanation for why some of the NPCs are sentient???
