    This game being promoted by CZcamsrs was always kind of a shady thing in my eyes. It's the most clean cut example of a cash grab rip off of a game that got its popularity off of being a genuinely fresh and original concept, and creators promoting something so derivative and (production value-wise) inferior feels like they're just doing it for the bag.

      Just saying, if this is "oh my god" worthy to you, then maybe you should expand your horizons a bit and look at all the "influencers" who don't even say they're sponsored but completely endorse products chalking it up as personal interest.

      For the same reason Palworld can't be sued. Copyright Laws are broken and can't be fixed. Ripoffs are obvious when seen but a generic description is too broad in application. Any attempts to clarify the laws only leads to non-ripoff games getting caught in the crossfire. We would need a good faith system to prosecute these sorts of games and good faith systems just aren't compatible with the sinful nature on Man.

      Hello Fresh has its own skeletons in the closet, from QC issues like not enough of the ingredients being shipped for a recipe, food arriving rotten, being anti-union and treating their workers like expendable meat machines and being overpriced when buying the same ingredients in store for less (Per capita). HF also owns some other brands like Factor who've also been getting the sponsorship rounds
      Meal kits have their place, I know disabled people who swear by them, but I suppose we can't all avoid scummy businesses and I hold no ill will to people who otherwise depend on these things. I just wish their workers were treated better and customers not getting rotten food.

Especially considering how much better fall guys is to stumble guys. While Stumble guys is still probably the best fall guys knockoff, it can be quite decent when played every once in a while, and it has some cool ideas, there are a lot of negatives and some recent updates to it make it feel like the game has gotten worse ngl. There is a reason why I play fall guys a few times per week compared to Stumble guys where I play it like once or twice a month.

    Great vid! Just a couple bits of feedback. I think the intro could be a bit shorter. The longer intro makes sense for the first vid since it’s your debut, but if it takes over a minute to get to the subject every time, I feel like it might get old. Also I think the bgm is slightly too loud sometimes, I had a bit of trouble hearing you some of the time- not anything major, though. Finally, I think you practice annunciating the words you say in the VO. There are a few times (particularly at 2:40-2:48) where it seems like you’re slurring your speech a bit and rushing as well.
    Aside from that stuff though, the editing, subject matter, and overall visual presentation is all really good and I can’t wait to see more! Have a good day!

    I'm really surprised that you didn't mention that Fall Guys was at one point a $10-20 game and only went free to play after it's first year. It's true it got popular from PS Plus but to get it on Steam or keep it after PS Plus ended you had to pay for it (and even more for like a Hotdog Suit premium edition). Then after a year it was pulled from Steam like a week after it was put onto Epic Games Store. Otherwise a good video, CZcams didn't recommend this one to me until a few days after it was posted despite being subscribed.

      @StarCheesy Před 2 měsíci +2

      Two more points:
      1. Basically mocking Fall Guys
      Fall Guys made a level maker for all players a while ago (an idea they do not own). And, stumbIe guys, obviously, took that idea, which is completely fair, but then they almost copied every aspect of the Fall Guys level maker trailer, and the script almost word for word, and pasted it to their trailer.
      2. “Fall Buddies”
      Self-explanatory. The codename for stumbIe guys (and the first name) was Fall Buddies. And, it still remains unedited.
      So, if Epic Games uses these pieces of evidence, they could possibly win a lawsuit.

      I've played Raid for a offerwall thing... It was terrible. The actual prize from the offerwall was "complete x amount of monthly quests", but the only way to do that was to buy something with real money that costed more than just skipping the offerwall and buying premium currencies in the game I was playing.
      The actual game itself wasn't good either, very much making you grind way past being annoyed to get currencies to upgrade armor on your units to make them viable for stronger opponents.

    Honestly I downloaded this game because it was sponsored by a CZcamsr I liked and I was really shocked at the lacklustre quality. The other day though I caught my younger brother playing it (he’s 11) and he seemed to enjoy it, so it’s definitely good at appealing to its target audience.

    I've played stumble guys before, it was really popular in my country a couple years ago.

    Just from the fact it was called *STUMBLE* Guys, I could already tell it was a cheap Fall Guys knockoff. I guess I was right. I find it funny how that short song loop just sounds like every other mobile game. Same bpm, instrumentation, just same everything. It appears this game was meant more for mobile, and I guess they just rushed the port to console and PC. Also, some game concepts kinda just work better on mobile, and just some concepts in general, like phone keyboards vs on-screen smart tv keyboards (trying to type with a tv remote [which I've had the displeasure of trying to do *MULTIPLE* times]).

      I mentioned this in another comment but during the end of the pandemic my kids heard about fall guys and wanted to play it, looked it up on the app store (since we don't have consoles and only ipads for school/general use) and looking up fall guys led you to this. I initially just thought it was the same game, and it took me a few play sessions to realize the characters looked different from what I'd seen before.
      It's pretty shameless and sleazy that they took something that worked and copied it, but at the same time, they went straight for mobile first, which, to my limited knowledge, fall guys didn't/doesn't have so they took a concept people wanted and delivered it in the requested platform before the original team did, it was a miss on the original game to not cover their bases with that.

    7/10, i'd play it.
    jokes aside, loving these videos so far! very refreshing to have a channel tear into promoted content.
    i always found it kind of weird how, especially for game promotions, they never really give THAT much of a reason to actually get the product (because they don't have a reason lol)
    its always "1 million players worldwide", "use my code for a gazillion super-gems and 16 EXCLUSIVE characters!", "this is *my* FAVORITE game", etc.
    i really don't understand how it gets *anyone* (other than 8 year olds, which i am now realizing are likely the prime audience for those ads.... hm.)
    i also hope that you don't end up stuck being a purely comedy/lighthearted channel, while i do enjoy it (very much!) i would also be interested in taking a look at some more serious stuff, like those "ai therapy" ones, or the outright scams like that one where you buy a 1 square inch plot of land to become a "lord" or whatever (which i'm pretty sure is like, dead and gone, but just as an example)
    and while i'm sure others share my sentiment, if you do continue to exclusively make comedy(etc)-oriented videos that's also good! (as long as you don't end up a sell-out :troll:)
    all in all, keep doing what you're doing! you've already exploded in popularity in just 2 weeks, and i highly doubt it's going to slow down much any time soon!

    Just stumbled upon your channel and subscribed, enjoyed both of your videos.
    And as you progressed through the video I wondered if you where going to mention it's mobile version. During the last stages of the pandemic when ppl where maybe venturing out, kids learned about fall guys, but without a console at our home, and with kids already using tablets for school, looking up fall guys on the Apple App store leads you directly to Stumble guys. It was free, and what my kids most enjoyed was dressing up their characters with stuff they'd win and it was fun to be able to quickly play online the 3 or 4 of us in the same room pretty painlessly. Credit where it's due, stumble guys filled a gap fall guys didn't account for, gotta give them credit for that. Having said that, even my young kids realized this was a knock off game of another one, heck this might have been the first time they grasped the concept...so bonus points for educative-ness?
    Objectively d tier, but I'd rate it higher personally just because it brings back good memories, and save for an odd costume I paid for my girls, essentially free to play.

    HSR and Genshin hold their own as PC games, and honestly are some of the least offensive gacha games on the market (outside of like Limbus Company). People understandably complain about gacha games because of their predatory monetization mechanics, but the worst of the genre hardly reaches the western mainstream and both games have interesting combat and stories when you get into them. Hoyoverse games are still gacha games, but compared to games like Fate/Grand Order, the odds are very manageable... The thing is that the less accesibke gacha games aren't really advertised as heavily.

    I think Fall Guys is more B tier. It launched as a buy-to-play game meaning it stood on its own without any major free-to-play elements, and then when they added in a battle pass it was far less terrible than most battle passes I've seen. Prices are actually reasonable. And it's quite fun with friends. Def not a high B tier game, but I like it.

In my school, my classmate would made a lobby where the entire quarter of the class is playing Stumble Guys. While the game was at its peak, it slowly dies and no one mentioned Stumble Guys again in 2023.
    The reason why its so popular at the time? Because a lot of people play with their phone and also like to play together with their friends/viewers. Sometimes, some of them didn't know about Fall Guys and would call Fall Guys a copy of Stumble Guys.

    I still dont get why people think stumble guys is better. “But the load times-“ Shush.

      Apparently fall guys devs are soon releasing an optimisation update for load times (also, the load times in stumbIe guys are because they match you with mostly bots)
