Garden warfare was surprisingly amazing. I remember spending definitely over 500 hours grinding it as a kid.
no goddang way
ong PvZ gw and PvZ gw2 are actually such great games
@@afanofthepacers593facts I’m waiting for a 3rd one id literally die for it
Yeah its sad that they aren't making any more
It is sad playing it now and there being no other players online.
Finally somebody who doesn't just talk about how EA ruined the series for the entire video.
The ironic, misinformation spreading video made by an obnoxious random that gains over 500K views by jobless, nostalgia-drunk losers whose entire personalities more than likely consist of nothing but anti-capitalistic views they gained from endless Twitter browsing, or just generally (and understandably) have a massive hate boner for EA.
Fr that's all people be talking about in some of their videos
YESS
Are they wrong
Yeah, actually. EA didn’t do most of the things that people hate but blame on them (i.e. adding microtransactions, BFN being unbalanced and feeling rushed on released)
Pvz is honestly a perfect name. There's no pun or nonsense, it simply tells you everything you need to know. Even a name like fruit ninja can confuse a person because it can't not only be read as you're the ninja who slices fruit or it's a game about a piece of fruit that is a ninja. There's no way to misconstrued pvz
Well, except the fact its not the name they wanted to give it
@@akiradkcn but they gave that name to it anyway. The others weren't chosen because they weren't good enough
@@nosh62 besides my point
@@akiradkcn wdym? It's true that it's not the name they wanted to give it at first, but it ended up being the perfect name they could've chosen
@@akiradkcnit’s entirely relevant to your point
An actually well made GW3 would be so good because it would be great to have multiplayer alive again for garden warfare. Also, great video.
They may be developing a Garden Warfare 3. They released Garden Warfare 2 on Steam around May this year, no real reason was given as to why, but many speculate EA’s interest growing in the Garden Warfare series again.
@@JailbreakMoments yeah no. The studio who made all gw games was shutdown
@@shadow_king12344 wait what?
i greatly appreciate you saying only “people liked it” to pvz heroes, describing it perfectly
just wished they updated it more :'(
@@x8e still play everyday and still am a huge sweat on it. Wish it was cared for
I love it, it's a really fun game. Deserves more love honestly.
Probably the best mobile card game, it's such a great mix of competition and fun as opponents never seem super sweaty, really hope it gets updates again one day
@@BlueJay567 yeah, such wasted potential
Imagine if we got *fish v.s. aliens*
edit: holy smokes this comment blew up, thanks for the likes guys!
What about insects vs plants?
Insane aquarium
INSANIQUARIUM!!!
Horrible!
Animals vs Skeletons
7:05 Big W getting the Commando Pea so early on
im 15 and as a kid my cousin would always be playing the warfare game, he was really into pvz and i even have a character spreadsheet of me as a corn that he made at that time, last year he gifted me the original game on steam and i fucking love it, im almost done completing all achievements to get 100% of the game done, it makes me so sad how they screwed up with the franchise and how i was to young to experience the initial hype
Why did you have to add your age into that💀
@@hummingbirdwithanar8281 he explained that by his last sentence.
@@DieshockX oh mb didn’t read that correctly apparently
i am about your age but i fortunately got to experience garden wafare in all of its glory, i got the gw 1 on pc on 2015, played the hell out of it, got gw2 on release but it didnt run on my pc so i got it on ps4 on 2017 and played the hell out of it
i also got bfn a few months after release on my pc... i kinda regret it since it became free on the ps plus and development dropped less than a year after release
Is garden warfare worth getting?
How does this have such little views, this feels like such a high quality video, editing was great, occasional humor was funny, and documented pvz very well
i agree
it was made 7 days ago, but this video seems to be getting a lot more views than other videos
its cuase there are already several videos milking the history of pvz so you can imagine after seeing like 3 already you dont need any more videos explaining it
how can u say quater mil in two weeks in small
Because PvZ is a dead game. ez.
Say what you want about this game, whether it's good or bad, it's always a timeless classic. EA may have been high during development and popcap was maybe supplying them, but now I'm seeing development.
George Fan has apPEAsed us
That’s a good one mate

Playing pvz gw2 with the boys late at night was such a mood. Probably some of my favorite memories. I loved that game so much
GW1 and 2 were actually such great games, especially with how GW2 added this whole PvE base map with a bunch of quests and secrets allowing you to earn more coins. I installed it just recently to check if I could find a game but to no avail.
not sure bout gw2 but gw1 pc still has one filled lobby during main hours on EU and NA
The video makes me feel sad about PvZ’s current state. I grew up with PvZ and am still playing BFN to this day (not a bad game at all and pretty underrated). Here’s to hoping that the future can bring us some hope for the franchise.
Bfn isnt a bad game. Just a terrible sequel to gw2. Removing the variants was the biggest downfall of bfn
@@shadow_king12344 imo, removing the variants was the best part it did. I hated variants a lot, but for some reason everyone else loved them.
@@the_patch_notes how come you hate variants?!
@@shadow_king12344 Variants made the game feel so cluttered and messy, and didn’t make much of a difference in gameplay, with only the exception of a handful out of the hundreds of them
@@the_patch_notes well variants always give you something to grind. And they make the game way more replayable
8:35 bro started speaking alien
It's genuinely saddening to see how this series has fizzled out into obscurity. Garden Warfare 2 was absolutely peak gaming. Me and all my friends would play that game every day after school. Everything after GW2 was a blur, the series just started dying out, and nobody was playing it anymore. I am upset that I completely forgot about PvZ until this video popped into my recommended. Farewell PvZ, you were a major part of my childhood, and I will always cherish the memories you have given me.
Garden warfare was unironically one of the best multiplayer experiences I had
can’t believe you got crazy dave to say this line 8:37
I thought i was the only one in the comments that has ears
Thats too random actually😂😂😭
Bro’s speaking Ohioan 😭☠️
LOL
I still play PvZ 2, it's very addictive, despite the micro-trasactions you mentioned. They keep on adding new plants to it, after so many years. Wouldn't that make PvZ 3's development slower?
No, development isn’t slower since they have their own seperate teams working on the games.
admittedly, the new plants added aren’t the same quality as the ones it has had from the start
and the new plants are actually free
mmmeh...it seems like they're so focused on PvZ 2, specially after the newest update.The devs seem comfy with their current pattern of "add new plants every whatever months", "add new 4 days battle events", "fix bugs". They could be adding new worlds to it, I'd be happy.
EA is not known for creating new games off of acquired franchises..
4:38 WTF I thought someone was tapping on my window it scared the hell out of me
Finally someone who appreciates pvz2
Its a ok game its just really bloated
@@madmonty4761 yeah, the mods make it way better.
It's just the original. The mod? Still better than the original
PVZ2 is BAD
I quite enjoy pvz2, sure it’s not that good now, but mods make it quite fun
6:47 team fortress 2's mann Vs machine
Not even similar
It'd be cool to see a follow up about how the Chinese games fit into this.
czcams.com/video/aAGUk4KOx78/video.html
Yeah that'd be cool since those add new features to the series's games
4:45 and it all went down hill from here
I grew up with this franchise and I started playing last week or so, great games and a great video.
Amazing, a pvz history video that doesn't tell yell EA bad popcap good every 5 seconds.
You are the best CZcamsr I have ever watched. You are funny and creative and overall a good person. Thank you for making these last few months of my life more entertaining. Truly thank you.
Mine too 😅
@@mammon-sama_fan9022 no
If you like this, you might like the video it's inspired by (mostly just the title) "the history of the entire world, I guess" by Bill Wurtz
I'm really, really glad you made this video, on the topic of pvz and it's history, this is most definitely the best out there. Definitely set yourself a bright future ahead!
i remember the feeling of playing pvz2 late at night, I don't think any game will ever give me such a feeling ever again
pvz 1 will forever be in my heart
Absolutely
It has the best art design out of all 3. To be honest, I want to see some PVZ2 and PVZ3 plants with PVZ1 design like Lightning Reed, Bamboo Shoot, Bonk Choy
@@ronaldgabrieljuan8624 No, bonk choy was pretty faithful to the original art as is, at least the original Bonk Choy was faithful to the original game art, I think they were still using the first game's artist when they made the game that first introduced Bonk Choy.
Hm, maybe not, I looked it up and it says PvZ2 was the first appearance of Bonk Choy, but it still blends in pretty well with the original plants of the first game, for the longest time I actually thought it was in the first game despite having played it, I had to replay it before realizing Bonk Choy was a later addition.
they did indeed turn them into plants
All these games throughout all these years, and the first one is still the best
4:40 that scared me
Even though there are so many versions out there I still plays the first one on my phone the game made my childhood😊
This video took me out of an existential crisis. 10/10 would watch again
this is a neat way of exploring pvz's history, pretty well done. i think this is the first time i ever saw early concept art and design for pvz1 lol.
Gotta love these history of the entire world spinoffs
i swear i always thought pvz adventures was just some fever dream i had. i have vague memories of it but could never find the game, it was uncanny learning that it actually had existed this whole time
Conclusion: EA ruins games
Gave us gw1 and gw2 but still I will agri with you
i remember in 2016, i was playing on my brothers ps4 and i came across pvz gw2 and i decided to play it. Probably the most fun part of 2016 in my life ever. It was so fun, the opening sequence with sunflower was so enjoyable. I remember the fun quests i got to do, it spread so much joy to my young face. When plants vs zombies bfn came out, i was so excited since i loved the pvz franchise. Man i miss the old times.
Loved that you followed the humor and formatting of the history of the world video
“The sequel didn’t really do anything extremely different than the first game” -Shaii (about GW2)
I beg to differ.
GW2 did so much different than GW1.
It changed the menu from a regular menu, to the menu being an actual map, known as backyard battleground.
Added a new gamemode, known as herbal assault, which is the opposite of gardens and graveyards.
It added new characters, gave the game an actual Campaign, and made me so hyped when gargs appeared.
(Only true fans know who gargs is)
In all, it changed everything, most of it for the better.
But then BFN showed up, and took a big dumpy shit all over the rest of the franchise.
Hate ea, not pop cap.
hate popcap, they develop the games, ea just publishes
Maps in GW2 were pretty bad tho.
09:46 wait, this one is from my singing monsters, that one character incisaur
The comedically cut-off crazy dave 'noooo's are what cracked me up lmao. You earned a subscriber!
This video needs more than a million views. Cuz. This video is really good. Keep up man👍🏻❤
Contrary to popular belief, the acquisition of popcap by EA did more good than harm
And surprisingly, the microtransactions were planned to be a part of PvZ2 before EA bought PopCap, and EA barely tells PopCap to do anything, yeah they may tell a few programmers to work on an EA game instead (which happened and led to BFN not being that great) but at the end of the day, PopCap are practically free to do what they want.
To me, I just see pop cap as following the tides of the casual market, simple as that
czcams.com/video/aAGUk4KOx78/video.html
@@mkks4559 Even if Bfn had more developers it wouldn't have been good, the whole concept was flawed
@@johnrainworld55 I'll trust what you say because I don't know anything about it.
9:51 *DUN DUN DUN BUM BUDDABUM* NOOOO!!!
I still play PvZ Heroes, I love that game so much. It's surprisingly strategic and it takes a lot of planning to make your cards work.
Nice vid, I like that your influence from the Japan vid was mediated by your own style
pwz was my childhood and i still play the original one till today, its not boring at all for me, i just love td games
My mom really loves the original PvZ, I taught her play in 2012 and still today she still play it. She used to play on our old laptop but now she got a phone she play the game in it.
aww thats so cool man
That's so cute! I teach my mom play it too! She still play it on phone, and I play it on laptop and we still talk about strategies. She more good than me in Vase minigame , to be fair😂
i love how they kept one of the previous names for the game as a minigame as a sort of callback, really feels great (especially since zombotany is my favorite minigame)
4:58i remember playing it like 3times but I got sad when I tried to play it and found it got shutdown
7:41 eyy I played that once
And I was terrible at it lol
The one thing I loved about BFN was the story mode it was very cool and the boss battle was super fun
At 11:20 when he said ''who knows whats in store for the future of plants vs zombies'' i was like well nothing has changed :(
That amazing 🤩 thank you for sharing this video to us !
As someone living in the Philippines when PvZ 3 came out in our region, I played it for about a few days then uninstalled it. Sure enough they listened to some level of criticism- sunflowers re-added, landscape mode, more levels, but it still felt very barren and cashgrabby. At least PvZ 2 was playable to completion and had much replayability with endless modes and events, but here it felt like the game was holding your hand all the way through and there was no variety, essentially ruining the strategy aspect as well.
Perhaps it was good that the game was taken off the store for an nth time, seems like at this point Popcap/EA are trying to trial and error their way through this one, but I feel the main issue is they're changing too much to try and be original or pander to new audiences, like with BFN. The future is uncertain but Ill be waiting with open arms and knife to the front.
"Some plants are so crazy they- cost money-" Crazy Dave - NOOOO!
I was expecting a run-down of the games lore, but this is enjoyable to and I totally agree with these opinions
I swear to god if this is EA bad PopCap good
Oh cool but it didn't explicitly say PopCap added microtransactions
@@loogi_is_die well atleast they didn't go on a full rant about how "ea totally rooined plantes versus zombees!!!!!!!" So thats unironically refreshing
@@GamerboyZun Yeah, but it's still kind of annoying
The thumbnail is so good😭😭☠️
Thanks for mentioning Insaniquarium! I haven't played that game in years and it's a childhood favourite of mine.
Wanna say, this was a refreshing video to watch, purely because the sequels were mentioned with an open mind. And yknow what, yeah! Most of the sequels are great! PvZ 2 is a fun romp, though a bit heavy on the microtransactions (also had a crazy difficulty spike while it was still adding worlds lmao) but it felt like a natural next step for the series, Garden Warfare 1&2 alongside Heroes were unique takes on the series that people really enjoyed!
It’s only been with the release of Battle for Neighborville and PvZ 3’s various testings that the series is going a little… downhill. I’m shocked 3 hasn’t released yet after all this time but, bah, what do I know.
Great video mate! Hope to see more like it :)
Why isn't it called Flower Defence?
Ima be honest 2009 - 2014 was the best versions loved playing it back then :D
Great work keep doing such amazing content
I love the editing on the George fan thinking parts
How are we going to skip over the pvz level where you scream at your ds to keep the plants alive ina heat wave. That’s a core memory for

garden warfare is kinda dead now but me n my sis still play it!!
like im joining multiplayer, barely any people 😥
I get tons of players just the host keeps leaving in garden ops everything I join a game so I have to host my own
I love the bill Wurtz inspo
PVZ 4: yo guys we deleted every plant except the peashooter and to get to the next level you have to pay 100$ plus taxes
5:21 **laughs in BlueStacks**
You forgot to say that in PvZ 2, the players never got more content, the chinese version had a little more to it, but what really was giving the fan base hope were the mods, cause cmon no one normal could ever get a plant to level 20 just by playing the game, the only way was spend money or get one of the modded versions that had evething unlocked for free.
Great video, informational, entertaining and interesting enough so I can watch while I eat
This is well documented, nice.
Man the Warcraft 3 custom game scene has inspired massive franchises like PvZ and has created entire video game genres like MOBAs. Blizzard gave people the tools to create some amazing things and players were better off because of it. But it is all the more of a shame that Blizzard’s current state has drifted so far from that image feels like a shadow of its former self
Please, don't let this game die. Not yet.
very interesting concept, never thought of it, very unique
This feels nothing like the Bill Wurtz video, but still a great summary!
9:25 i actually consider plants vs zombies battle for neighborville PVZ GW 3
Damn PVZ from a basic tower defense game to an addictive tower defense game
W vid, gotta redownload now
This is what popped up when I was rechecking to see if anyone else cared for pvz lore and while it’s not what I asked for to youtube it is a very good video
April 2022 was second new pvz3 beta..... the first one was in September 2021
the moment at 5:13 touched my heart, the acting, the animation, everything about it was great!
truly a masterpiece of a video
Literally nothing happened at that timestamp
@@4rdency you fell for it
the garden warfare clips gave me crazy backflashes to 5th grade playing it every day after school
I loved this game. I remember playing that first game for hours in my computer, and when they released the pvz2 I was really upset because they didn't released the game for PC and I hadn't any android mobile to play pvz2 so I sometimes played it on my friends smartphones but all in all it was great to have that first game in my mind.
6:15 Does anybody know what this is?
the issue with PvZ3 isn't that it's necessarily bad, it's that it's a SEQUEL to PvZ.
Arguably. One problem that surrounds modern game culture is rising expectations. Here, we have a game which comes from a fantastic franchise that is loved by many, making expectations higher.
On the other hand... yeah no, pvz3 is just a mediocre mobile game at heart.
@@scotterboi9 personally i don’t mind the gameplay, my issue is that it is literally a Scapes game now.
worded it poorly, in terms of the real PvZ aspects its alright but not a sequel to PvZ2 and the way you even progress is Homescapes.
@@bored.random Fair enough.
6:10 GW1 completes what pvz2 failed
I have to disagree with what was said about plants vs zombies garden warfare 2. It wasn't just pvzgw1 with more characters. It also added an engaging hub world and a surprisingly fun campaign. However, where the game really shined was with its secrets. Some of my favorite gaming experiences are with grinding out the trials of gnomus or finding a hidden golden gnome until eventually opening up the first part of the vault. As well as all that, the tower defense mode had received a huge update with you now being able to play as zombies in grave yard ops. They also added a new game mode that played similar to a tower defense in the form of infinity time. Finally, the events were loads of fun. around once a week, the town hall would open up and you would be able to play some sort of exclusive game mode whether that be robo cats vs robo dinos or, my personal favorite, the "raid bosses". there were four incredibly challenging bosses that you would only get a chance at once a month. During these times you would grind up your XP multipliers in preparation for the fight. Out of the four bosses, I only beat two in my 600+ hours of game play. Needless to say, the game had much more depth than the original. Battle for neighbor ville not only lost the character varients and stick packs, but also the depth in secrets which was a much larger deal for me.
Yeah backyard battleground was awesome
4:24 ain't no way the ds version has tiktok mode activated
Subscribed quality content 👍
i thought u were gonna tell the lore of pvz not the actual story bru!
nice video reguardless
I love this video. I really hope that they change it so you can pick your plants in pvz3.
lol. You can tell I just discovered youtube emojis
Bill wurtz will be proud of this masterpeice
Not really, it's not even trying to copy the original, just the title. Dont get me wrong, its an OK short documentary.
Just bought the first one again and finished the main adventure in 2 days
It was such a fun experience and I'm sad there's nothing like it again (I've played a lot of pvz 2, but the microtransactions and kinda bad balancing does it for me)
im seeing this at the best time, my little brother has really gotten into PvZ (specifically the garden warfares), I'm so happy I can share interests with him
PvZ adventures still brings a tear to the eye to all of us.
Road trip is looking pretty promising to be honest tho
i love how they used both an extra game mode after one of their one old name ideas and named the company the plants are from after another name
