Game Theory is an interesting subject. It has implications on all of our lives, and it's not something that's blatantly obvious all the time. It's the science of strategy, and it's pretty cool.

Bruh why you gotta do me like that

âMost research on Game theory focuses on how groups of people interactâ
*Bold of you to assume Iâm interacting with people*
Chill out, what ya yellin' for? Lay back, it's all been done before. And if you could only let it be, you will see that I am the funniest CZcamsr of all time. Admit it, my dear follower imma

@@purplemystique8308 There's this popular CZcams channel called "The Game Theorists" and their most popular video series is called "game theory" but it's about video games. The host (if I can call him that) is called Matthew Patrick, but he just calls himself Mat Pat.
Also he always ends his theory videos with "And that's just a theory, A GAME THEORY!"

Hey Aperture, Iâm letting you know that I appreciate your diligence when making these videos. These are part of my evening routine, and I watch them right before bed to unwind and relax. Itâs almost like reading a book. These videos let my mind wander and loosen up, and I really am grateful for you and your content.

It asserts dominance.
idk who designed the game of life but it sucks. yea it starts promising, you get better stuff by farming, increase your attributes and such but later on your attributes decrease even to the point of going totally bust. if you don't like the game you can't really quit, you have to play by rules made by others and you can't really change the rules much either. you may also experience bugs, yet again out of your hands, that may terminate your unit at any point (at least some of them can be fixed). even if you are generally speaking a nice person some may not tolerate your views or way of life or beliefs and even if you play life and abide all the rules and pass all road blocks you may still not reach your goals or find happiness and you're always competing with everybody for everything. the game may terminate at any point and the more you play the closer you get to the end but you don't really know when that is either. no but seriously if somebody did design all this, they really trolled everybody really hard and if they are watching us, how we all don't get along and bicker and experience all the hardships of the game of life, they are probably loling hard at us. and another funny thing, they designed the game in such a way that we as a whole will not stop playing, there will always be new people forced into this game without even given a choice whether they wanna play or not and a lot of them get bad start and the game is already rigged so hard against them that they may not even enjoy it at all. one day the game may end for our whole race but it may also restart and repeat itself infinitely and maybe that is the case even now but sadly we do not remember if we played it before
And yet despite all of this
Our community of gamers found a way to keep succeeding and improving the game making it more and more easier and rewarding for each new player
We have a much wider range of difficulty sets and millions of different quests we can choose to tackle
We don't really have to worry about survival mode anymore because that's basically outdated
Basically like in pokemon the game got so easy that we are now forcing ourselves to come up with new playing rules to make the game even more harder because the default version of it has became too easy for the current skill set level of the modern players
Btw I'm assuming we're both tierzoo fans here right?
@@tpsam I don't know where you live, but a lot of the world is still in survival mode, hell! I am in survival mode too.
You should read the homeward bounders by Diana Wynne. A very intriguing novel where a bunch of demons play games with human realities
I just realized that the people who are forced to play this game, need 8-9 months, to make the developers of the game, customize their character
Studying game theory could actually help you win an among us game.

You are not first,
You are not last,
But most certainly
Nobody asked
one of the best poems I've heard
You are not the original commenter
You are not the last commenter
But most importantly
Stop stealing comments
That's a yes from me
Why do we need permission
Why do people have to ask though? Also, I swear to god I see this same comment on like every video.
This actually helps me out alot. I spend alot of time trying to guess what others will do before they do it, whether it be people trying and get closer to me as a individual, insult me or my work, or simply just having a good chat for a short while. Most of these predictions are pretty accurate, either because of me self-fulfilling these prophecies or actual good guesswork.
Either way, hyper analyzing these small, sometimes insignificant interactions that I have with others is something I enjoy pondering on, this video reaffirms that its not a waste of time, just a fun way to pass it.
That was a nice way to put it. Not wasting time, but simply passing it. Well done Sir
đ
Unless your playing among us where no one makes rational decisions
If you're getting better at guessing right that's definitely useful to your analytical logic improvement
You are improving pattern recognition problem solving data collection
There are a lot of useful skills that you are honing by keep being focus and trying to elaborate the outcomes of all these nuanced interactions
@@MrMayro-um9wm Haha Well Said
âAre you the type of person to analyse every second of the interaction you just had with someone for hours on end?â
Me: mmhmm
âOr are you normalâ
Oh...
Would be so dope to see a colab between Aperture and GameTheory
this video came up just when i started studying game theory. thanks, aperture. it was, and still is, indeed very helpful.
Wow, you really nailed the introduction part of the video, with the explanations and stuff, great job man
Life is like solving a puzzle, then finding out it still doesn't make sense
Because the puzzle piece is You!
Yep it doesnt make any sense because there is no reward
If you're alive you haven't finished your puzzle.
â@@itztwistrlThe puzzle won't ever be finished, even if you die. To finish that puzzle would mean to do everything there is to do in all possible ways, perfectly. Or just being perfect at death, with nothing you haven't done or perfected. The puzzle will forever be complete, by definition of our universe.
Aperture, I love your vids man. Your channel is so unique and special to me. Keep up the great work!
This man is seriously brilliant. Love your vids man keep up the good work
Always love all your videos!! Really found a great intellectual channel on youtube! Thank you.. đ I guess I needed to understand why people play games in life and with other people and their feelings and what is the outcome they want to achieve out of those games.. Your point on people choose the outcome on the things that most benefits them is the most accurate!! Explains a lot about people and how their minds work!!đđŻ
Hello internet. Welcome to GAME THEORY
But hey! That's just a theory!
Thanks for watching !
You forgot the caveat of the prisoners dilemma; where the police lie to both of them. The police say to both prisoners that the other one already ratted.
Iâm never going to get over the fact that every time i revist your channel for a rewatch of your videos, you upload the next day. its wild.
I was just literally thinking itâs been a while since Aperture made a video and then boom
Haha thanks for uploading đȘđȘđȘ
Everything has limits and knowing when to use what and what its limits are is true wisdom , not just knowledge.
You win if you are truly satisfied with your life. I have not yet won, but I am on the right path.
What do you want? I just want a nice house and a nice family.
Aperture, I love your videos. Keep up the great work!!!!! :)
Awesome video man.....you never disappoint on your delivery.
Such calm and soothing voice! I love it â€
Yoooo I havenât watched it but I know this shit gonna be good
You have the best videos. They inspire me and drive me to who I seek to become. Thanks bro. I believe there will be a day where we will meet. Best to you.
Aperture, I love your videos. Keep up the great work!!!!! :). this goes to show that life is literally just a game..
this goes to show that life is literally just a game.
Yeah but the definition of game in this case is different
Imagine someone with a good knowledge of psychology that also studies game theory. He'd be a pretty formidable opponent in just about anything
With my unmatched perspicacity coupled with my sheer indefatigability makes me a feared Opponent in any realm of human endeavor.
This reply is funny ...đ
A very good one. Please do some more on this and related topics.
Super fascinating topic, thank you for reminding me how much it interests me! I'll go enroll in an online course about it ^^

Your Videos are so deep
i love them!
I swear this channel has the same vibe as summoning salt's,
And I love it.
Aperture you're the reason why I have an existential crisis during class.
Cats: meow
Dogs: woof
9-year-olds: *FIRST FIRST*
I really love these kind of videos
Youâre so close to a mill! If any, you deserve it most
"And the reason to win, so you can be free of it" - Love that. Go spiritual and stay present. Wont solve all, but helps =)
It does solve all, you just don't know it
Lifeâs a lot cooler once you realize youâve been doing the equivalent to grinding in world of Warcraft in your life for the past few decades.
Also thanks for the video dude. Itâs almost always that after I have a in depth conversation with someone about a topic you come out with a video relating to it. Get out of my head haha. Or maybe weâre just sharing the same collective consciousness huh. Thanks anyways
I got a theory. People who have similar lives will probably have similar thinking. So you thinking about stuff he makes videos about basically means your lives are similar. Another theory is that the stronger the connection between two people the more they'll share similarities. So you might also have been watching a lot of his videos, liked them, and now your way of thinking is similar to him. This is just something i came up with but it usually is right, at least in my case
@@aboodtube3969 meh I get what youâre saying. But what Iâm saying is a little deeper than that. For example this week I wanted my friend to come over to help him understand these concepts of god that Iâve been trying to cover with him for a few weeks. (He wasnât understand through text). And he chickened out, and on the same day. âItâs okay to be smartâ dropped a video of âwhen is now?â Explaining to a certain extent the concept I was trying to explain. And he watched it the next day and after meditating I got a text from him saying it was pretty mind blowing. And at that same 30 min window, âAfter Skoolâ dropped video about religions best kept secret. Give it them watch if youâre interested
A great way to end my day in a nice chill way đ
"The concept of trying to guess the other player's decision is what makes the game so tricky."
That's so true. Even though it's only predictions, if you can base them on facts, or previous actions, or even just the other player's personality, it'd be that much easier to win.
"Winning [tac-tact-toe] requires both players to respond optimally to what the other player is doing."
Correction: for tic-tact-toe, winning requires the other player to NOT play optimally. If both players play optimally, it's always a tie... Such a dumb game... LOL
When I play the game of life I always lose aha-
Thatâs why I keep getting resurrected
Lol what a noob
Definitely NOT a Genocider thatâs why I always say gg for the +25 karma on hypixel
Wonderful video, keep up the good work đđđ
well Explained about Game Theory...thanks Apertue
Girl at 3:23 be like "Sure, if losing my queen is the obvious price to pay for eating your horse I'll pay it gladly. I hate friggin' horses"
Great video man!
I did my final year project on game theory and it was fascinating. My supervisor told me I'd never look at the world in the same way again... and he was right! This whole Covid thing is basically one big game of N-player prisoner's dilemma. Some people are defecting against most of us cooperating and the defectors are really spoiling it for the cooperators. This is a simplistic analysis as it's more complicated than that since defectors may be affected negatively by their own actions but the principle is there.
And yet we now know the defectors werenât actually risking the cooperators. At least we now know the rules were lies. Did we learn more about the cooperators or the defectors. Seems to me we now know cooperators are willing to go along with authoritarianism and wonât admit they were lied to. What does that say about the game of life?
Easily the best CZcamsr out here
this is extremely well produced
You should make this a podcast and I'd listen to them everyday. Nice video as always!
You make me want to buy stocks!
The highlight of my day is when I get a notification for a new Aperture video. Keep it up I am vested in the success of this channel!
You really make amazing content!
Aperture, can you make paradox explanations like inventors paradox? And the video is equally brilliant. Thank you
Ahhh waited all day for this
One thing to be aware of, just like how other players have an impact on your game, you have the chance of making those impacts as well.
Missed opportunity to end with
"BUT HEY THAT'S JUST A THEORY A GGGAAAAAAAAAMMMMME THEORY, Thanks for watching."
Eyyyy! A fellow Theorist!
No stfu
I mean this channel isn't really involved with video games so
People need to know that nobody cares about this game theorist stuff when we're talking about actual, math game theory because every time I see a video about this the comments section is always stupid
I would listen to this guy talk about everything everyday
i could not miss this!
The fear of knowing you would be whacked if you didn't stay quiet was enough of a solution for many at one point.
This "strategic" way of looking at life as a game of winners and losers really hurts us as a species. Who is one to claim what the game is? Who is one to claim what is the right way to play it? There is no such answer, for there are no winners nor losers in life, only beings, trying to survive. Life isn't a competition that can be "won". Life is simply existance that an individual can interpret in an infinite amount of ways. Life is different for everyone, no experience is the same.
How can you sure about that? For example you want to board a plane but you didn't know it will involve in a crash because of Engine trouble?
But if you choose to stay home, the robbers will kill you while they sneak into your home.
or if you choose to Marry a City Girl but she's having an affair?
in-order to Avoid this, you need Strategy and tactics in the Game theory, which is the Game of choice..
@markeen mehogne "Choices" are but illusions created by your brain to rationalise a situation your facing. In actuality there are no real choices but guesses which lead to consequenses, a choice is when you can predict the outcome, thus choosing which. If you couldn't, it wouldn't be a choice, for you can't choose something you don't know. And this is the point, life can't be a game, because a game by it's definition can be "played". And playing something means to choose a certain outcome by doing certain actions. But reality isn't this predictable. In fact, no matter what you do, you can never 100% choose your outcome. Sure, you can guess and try to predict with logic what'll happen, but you can't fundamentally choose what'll happen.
@UCTzuhYdAdPgNL8Gruy1U2Uw I think you missed the point. If you play [VN] ren'py, you can understand what I mean, in life there's a choice that will dictate your destiny. Let's put it Simply: if you choose A to accomplish B' , but the outcome is X, you will choose another path, to avoid the Disaster of 'X, but the last variable is you don't know the outcome that if you choose A, you take 'X. Which is not Good.
@@OntologicalShock777 you are talking abra kadabra mate. A choice that you make which leads to actions as a result is always related to yourself, direct or indirect
@@machinegun20 , I believe in Einstein's Superdeterminism, everything is pre-determined and we act according to external factors that is built upon us even before we born.
I have something similar to this. Whenever I finish doing something or see something, I think in my head all the possibilities that could've happened.
i love your videos man
I came here expecting Game Theory jokes
I wasn't disappointed
As someone who overthinks EVERY decision I make in life, I finally understand now why I do it đ
I am glad this video was uploaded
"It takes time to truly understand" nah man I got it all for a while now. Great video thou đ
"We're just trying to win the game of life. And the reason to win is so that you can be free of it."... That last line was a bit dark.
This man just cracked everyoneâs head open into their âgame sectionâ and just dug 5 layers deep into it
The most important part of gameing is the values and principles that our games bring to the table...without that elements the game itself loose identity
Do you have a Podcast because I would listen to ur voice everyday!!!
this video: has a name relating to the topic itâs about

âSometimes you lose without even playingâđ I felt that
