It's really interesting to hear his method for setting deadlines, honestly it's a smart idea considering how much Baldi's Basics blew up
Can't wait for the Nathaniel B-ababooey episode 👍
Ain't You Nathaniel B?
Why hello there nathenial, I remember watching your "how ____ pisses you off series" when I was younger
Oh my god did not expect to see you here lol. I do really agree with you though.
Hi Nathan
I love Baldi's Basics and it's "CGI on a budget of 2 dollars and an Arby's gyro" aesthetic so this is nice to see
Im forever grateful for the creator of this great game, encouraging me to sweep sweep sweep.
I applaud Myst/Micah for turning a quick project for a Game Jam into something huge as BB+ was.
Dude one reason I really like Baldi’s Basics is because most indie horror games back then ( and still now ) has like deep complicated lore.
But not Baldi’s Basics, and even the sprinkle bit of lore in there it was mostly jokes.
Plus will have story, but I don’t expect it to be the main focus.
It isn’t a horror game, it’s even scarier! It’s a spoopy game!
@@Rainbows11942 the funny thing is that it does this one thing really well, it's "unintentionally scary", and in that way, it feels more genuine.
the best part is that the only character who has "lore" constantly calls out other indie horror stereotypes and after you kill him, he disappears from the game and every "scary" or "lore" related aspect is removed
@@tolstartheking im from future, plus still hadnt story:(((
33:55 Null making a comeback?!
i don't understand why Baldi gets so much hate. it seems so self explanatory yet people misunderstand it's motive as an indie game so much
People hate on Baldi’s Basics because it is a popular game among children. Children can often be quite immature, and can inject a lot of cringe into a fan base. But the thing is, I’m not complaining. Baldi’s Basics is one of the only 100% family friendly horror games out there. It has no blood, no excessive violence, or anything of that nature. Not to mention, the colors are very bright and would attract kids. I kind of think it was intentional through, and that Baldi’s Basics was always supposed to be a game that is enjoyed by kids and adults.
@tolstartheking people think it was made as another cash grab indie horror title but it was a game jam game made as a joke and that's what I mean by people misunderstanding it
adults can eject cringe aswell not just children@@tolstartheking
Baldi’s Basics Plus in isolation is great, because it’s more of a survival game than a horror game.
29:24 Write that down, WRITE THAT DOWN!
seriously, this interview made my day! So much fun to watch!
Edit: 32:57 WHAT!?!
Ikr I’m like :0
I think he probably means the 'Light test room' that can be accessed only with hacks, but otherwise IDK...
@@Trigware well Mystman12 mentioned that he couldn't find any ody made a single video about the secret we hadn't discovered yet. So it's probably not the light room
@@Trigware In the second timestamp He said theres a secret message in classic remastered thats yet to be found, and if your talking about the first timestamp its talking about the computer game, not baldi
@@TwistyXR I was referring to the second, but you're right... that's not it...
20:20 JOE ULTIMATE BUS RIDE MENTIONED
Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think they were talking about your iceberg vid 👀
conglaturations rapp
you are now officially considered the baldi iceberg man
gone is the time where you were considered the dave and bambi artist and the baldi loves chip guy
The rapping rep
yooooo rappa!11!1!1!1!
I miss the summer before this summer. Was so fun playing bb+ and watching ur content. First time feeling nostalgic to something so recent.
mystman12 is really good at making things that feel nostalgic because he was into the things that are now considered nostalgic, and so his entire personality just shows that.
Mystman 12 looks like that kid at school who is friends with everyone
2:52 BABY BALDIII :D
3:01 *stares into your soul*
24:35 he's so cute 🥲
24:47 baldi will what. O_O (not that way)
25:43 THE LITTLE SHAKE AWW ❤
I have 310 hours in Baldi's Basics Plus, and still randomly discovering random shenanigans or random facts. At least 150 hours of my playtime has been just since the start of 2023. Thank you Mystman for giving me a problem lol
I love how humble he is, and its pretty clever how he handles deadlines and managing routines,
this is the best thing to see in my recommendations
I remember Micah once saying ToeJam & Earl was also a huge inspiration for the procedurally generated levels. That game deserves more appreciation for being ahead of its time in how it's programming worked, I'm glad something similar survives in Baldi
Also, the movie director who emailed Micah... 👀
Wait a fucking minute?!!what do you just say?a movie director contact mystman12 ?!!where do you get this information?
@@user-zt8vz7lj5gin this video he got the information
@@user-zt8vz7lj5g didnt finish watching the video 😭
@@user-zt8vz7lj5gits in the vid. Micah ghosted him tho
33:00 I’m boutta put 30 more hours into that game now
So glad you guys got to interview Mystman12
The only thing I could see for a Baldi series would be just an episodic joke series that doesn’t try to have some crazy overarching story and is just something to watch for a good laugh, kinda like Gumball (minus the story stuff they started for like seasons 4 and 5)
dude fr
This is so cool! It's cool to hear how he handles motivation and stuff
Time to get down to basics
fnuuy
That should be the name of a Baldi documentary.
The setting deadlines thing reminded me of something I saw years ago.
Two creators who shall remain nameless as one has moved onto other projects announced ~2007 a huge crossover for their fanshows with a release date of Summer 2008. The project was never completed, with an unfinished segment uploaded in 2017 and one of the creators leaving the community around the same time.
Super Mario Bros. Z?
Now this is epic, it's nice to see the creator of the baldi franchise here and I like how he sets deadlines for himself when making baldi, I really look forward to what mystaman12 does with baldi and other creations in the future
Woke up at the perfect time.
i left school early at the perfect time
Emailed Micah At The Perfect Time
42:56 Yeah, working on the main game your developing and also coming up with new ideas for a whole separate different project for a different game at the same time can be infuriating lol 😅. I have actually quit remaking Baldi's Basics into Minecraft (I uploaded a teaser in that on my channel) for my friends and family to play on it, and I also made my OWN game inside Minecraft. Like I had created my very OWN horror map that had been inspired to have similar mechanics like Baldi's Basics, and I might share it on the internet, but that's not the point. My tip is to have a journal for each project, basically like the concept art of characters, themes, mechanics, etc. Each journal should really clear out the stress about having and planning out various projects at the same time, 42:56 been there lol
Finally, let's get down to basics! I've never seen him interviewed before. Great work on putting this together!
THE LEGEND HIMSELF
My son loves Baldis Basics. He's 8 now but when it was a new game , he was obsessed with all the CZcams content surrounding it.
Dude what? That was 5 years ago you let a 3 year old watch CZcams? WTF?
@@tolstartheking Exactly wtf?
@@tolstartheking its their choice i know it's dangerous n stuff but yeah
whatever the case is, your son’s awesome
The creator of the school house himself!
POV: You're checking the comments section to see if mystman12 commented on this video.
33:00 I KNOW WHERE TO START LOOKING FOR THE SECRET MESSAGES IF NEEDED
THE SECRET EXTRA PART OF THE EASTER EGG CRASH HAS A FEW FRAMES I SCREENSHOTTED THAT CLEARLY HAVE THE ABILITY TO BE TRANSLATED!!!!!!!!!!!!
IM FREAKING OUT
I WISH I WASN'T OVER A MONTH OATE TO THIS
Do you have proof? (No hate)
REALLY?
Mystman lowkey looks like Sheldon cooper from big bang theory
Mystman looks so uncomfortable being there lmao
He's probably just fidgeting around he's probably not uncomfortable
No?
maybe autism lol
Im so glad to see that he is going to update plus soon!!
2:54 Hey, i have like small version of that plush!
not me geeking that this man has an aperture laboratories jacket
31:18 is where he talks about matpat
I love supporting my favorite content creator splashdash
What about how he got the idea of NULL (Filename2)
YO WHAT? A PODCAST WITH LS MARK? les gooo
It's Mark and his Community Girlfriend, the podcast is called Cucking Halfway, after the interview Mark goes and plays Sonic while Veronica and the guy hang out.
he's way less weird than i thought the guy who made baldi's basics would be
This is just super cool. The mind of this man is in another lvl. Just gotta thank Micah for creating this universe.
Favorite time of the week
Baldi is the best indie game all because of the mod accessibility, HAVE YOU SEEN RALDIS CRACKHOUSE
i always thought he would be just a kinda scummy dude but he’s insanely respectable and humble
Uh why? Just curious because that's a new one from impressions i've heard of this creator lol.
bruh why'd you think of that?
Well Baldi can be seen as a mascot horror game(wich micha doesn’t agree with) but maybe because most mascot horrors are cash grabs and unoriginal
walking across the hallways finding notebooks so we matter
A Baldis basics tv show or movie will be VERY VERY COOL!!!
Totally radical my friends!
Imagine if they actually get Butch to attend their wedding. 💀
From what we know about Veronica, Butch might be at the honeymoon
What fascinates me about Micah is he is a self professed Christian
The guy looks like grown up Milo Murphy
OHHHHH GOSH HOORAAAAAAY!!!! HOW AWESOME 🎉♥️♥️♥️♥️✨✨
The fact that gotta sweep has a plush, make me jealous. I want gotta sweep. He’s my favorite character
WOOOOOW!! This-
This is FANTAAAASTIC!
:o
Holy moly I was not expecting this.
I love Micah, but HOLY SHIT HE IS SO FIDGETY.
Its so adorable to me
@@lucygalaxik8162 fr
All he has is a chair
us fidgeters have to stick together
Just like me fr fr
I Can't Belive My Favorite Content Creator Is Having An Interview With The Creator Of One Of My Favorite Games Every!!!, Finally.
I LOVE MEETING HALFWAY
w sonny chain
TurtleTM!!!
Veronica loves meeting other dudes
ahhh i wanna meet him!
“It’s meeeeaoim.” But not bitcrushed to boiled potato quality. I don’t know how to feel about that.
This really goes to show how even big industry names won't conduct research on who they're doing interviews with. Literally they never do, they do podcasts and interviews for PR cuz its interactive with their fanbase while not being parasocial, 100% that and nothing else. I mean shit, remember when Alex Hirsch was on h3?? What the hell was that for? Because if any of these creators saw Veronica's first personal CZcams video, they'd either walk the hell away from any of this or continue it anyways because they are also secret serial cheaters and mass manipulators in disguise lmao. I'm starting to respect creators more who don't do interviews point blank.
what the absolute fuck are you on about
I thought it was only Veronica that was the serial cheater
Once a cheater always a cheater Veronica
Podrías explicar este comentario?
Veronica cheated on Mark @@qjkjwq
I Be Interested To play Baldi Basics if it Come out on Nintendo Switch
29:38 me and a friend of mine (cheatexp) worked together to find what this was. it's a really freaky screen that starts with "YOU ARE DOOMED" and then a bunch of rainbow colored "HELP"s before revealing a rotten face that's flashing colors with "CMOSDEAD" written over and over in a background that keeps on getting written over in red. it's really weird why is this in a game about a floating baby head i love mystman's games
22:14 - just for me
FIRST!!!!!11!!
Third
man didn’t know you stooped this low.
* Stomps the shit out of you. *
Gosh i love baldi basics!
New episode!!
1:39 Sonic robo blast 2 detected
Wait this was 5 months ago ?! Who makes the Baldi dolls? Is mystman the one who makes them or does he have someone who makes them for him
16:52 bringing that game and …him… up physically ruined my mood. That speedrunner is an egotistical asshole who is so engulfed in his rage it is literally hurting him. He constantly lashes out on his viewers and he refuses to take care of himself mentally and phisically. He literally mocked people for caring about his diminished mental health.
He’ll try to convince you it’s his trolls that ruin him (and will always point to one and not all of them for some reason), but I know from experience the majority of the time it is himself that makes the streams a pain. (Watched him for 6+ years, i’ve seen it in real time. Had to stop watching him because it’s such a toxic environment) and he always acts like the viewers are in the wrong for getting unnerved and uncomfortable every time he starts screaming at the top of his lungs (to the point the chat goes completely silent because he bans people for differing opinions).
Though, I completely understand your point in bringing that up in the conversation.
The pain of the experience is just so deep my heart sank from the mention of …him.
Legit had to step away from the vid because of how distressed i got.
Either than that, this was a good watch
why did you get so offended over someone mentioning spongebob battle for bikini bottom 😭.
Also who are you going on about? They don't even mention anyone specific at that point.
Content great as ever!
Universally adored by all.
Can't imagine a better creator than LS Mark!
Kyour wife cheated on you.
Sonic schoolhouse creator when??
someone please subtitle this
Я ДОЧЬ МИСТМАНА12❤
HOLY SHIT GOMOTION REFERENCE!!!!!!!
Yo! I loooovvveee this game! I’m also a chaos-loving probably ADHD having gen-Z kid, so…. That’s the end of the comment.
you sound like a character.
wtf
*This road trip of podcast is really producing great results.* Then Sonny joins in. 😞
I'm wondering what tf Baldi Basics is not gonna lie. 😂
