 Hello, and welcome back to the craft box. My name is Brenton today We are talking about a thing that got suggested in the comments. I Do this sometimes try and do it once a week, but it depends how many comments I get you know if you have any suggestions of the things that I should talk about In a video go and leave them down below in the comments section and I I do read all the comments if I don't Trust if you it doesn't look like I do trust me. I do I try very hard to do that. I Yeah, I yes But anyway today we're just gonna go to a different Realm because it's a bit of mice my mouse is still dead. I've yeah, okay my mouse is dying It's okay. Don't worry about it though. It's fine. It'll be fine. I promise it will try and be fine Um Weird scenery today. I know we're in dragon's fire like yuck. I thought I might do this Well, I'm farming more master because why not? I mean I would do it anyway And it gives me a perfect excuse to do it plus being productive. So like it's a win-win But anyway, as you can probably tell by the title We are gonna be talking about Kingsile games like Wizard 101 parrot 101 on steam Um This was a topic that was brought up in the middle of last year 2017 With the release of ever clicker. I believe when I think it got approved They like tried to put on steam and it got approved. I think it got approved. I'm not 100% sure I haven't really Dug into it, but I hope I'm using the right deck. I don't think I am that would be bad Am I No, I'm not Luckily we have to wait So Yeah, it was brought up in the middle of last year And it kind of sparked a bit of debate around the community I've seen a couple of videos about it and I'm not saying that like I'm first to spring on the subject, but it got asked so I'm gonna answer it in my personal opinion I Haven't really thought about it, but like I Think that it would be good for some of the games, but also Bad I Think it would be good Because it will bring a whole bunch of new players To the game, which is really good, especially for pirate 101 and I would highly I Highly want pirate 101 to be on steam and I wouldn't mind if was it isn't because I don't see wizard 101 as a dying game Mainly because I do play pirate and there's definitely a dying game But yeah, I wouldn't be adverse to it, but Yeah, basically, I don't think that there is enough Advertisement currently for either game like there's no advertisement at all. I haven't seen adverts in like years I I started I personally started playing the game in 2010 or 11 and I've played because I got spam with advertisements. I Gave into advertisements. I didn't know what I was doing. I was like 10 or 11 But like I got spammed and I'm like, whoa, this seems weird. So I clicked on it once and I'm like, oh, it's a game That's cool. So that's personally how I've started and I do think that there needs to be far more advertisements For the game you see other games that are old if not older then Wizard 101 obviously this game is coming on 10 years this year. I believe yeah 10 years 2008 18 10 years which is crazy But other older games like RuneScape and wow you still see advertisements online for it I see RuneScape ones too many times It's because I used to play it, but yeah, I see it way too much, but that game is Still going okay ish. I'm Have heard of issues with it, but I'm like it's not as It's not dying as much as say Pirate 101, but And that I would think is to do because they have so many Advertisements and just trying to entice new people to play which is a good idea for a game and that's what all games should try and do obviously King's Isle is a company and Trying to earn money which some people find hard to believe and I kind of And they criticize King's Isle for that, but I I personally don't I think what they're doing Yeah, there's better ways to do things, but for what they're trying to achieve as a company. I Think that they're just trying to make money I can't even speak trying to make money, which is what all companies should be trying to do and if you have investors, it's Definitely important So that's personally what I think Other people have different opinions, but back to being on steam. I think it would bring a whole new Kind of a whole new life to definitely Pirate 101 and I think being on steam plus More advertisements would definitely help their income which seems to be their excuse Yeah, I don't like the word excuse, but at this point it kind of is their excuse for not making updates and I find it really hard to Play pirate with like out without many updates Like I don't think if I was if I wasn't doing the privateer walks where I wouldn't have a membership for pirate But there's no question about that. I don't go on my musketeer. I don't go on my witch doctor I went on my witch doctor around the Christmas season to get the badges, but If I wasn't playing the game would have I gone and got a membership just to get the badges. No, I Did it just because I already had a membership like and I think a lot of other people who Play both games like blaze life hammer and all those like him He I know he doesn't I'd pretty sure he said in one of his recent videos that he doesn't actually have like a Membership to whiz pirate because he doesn't play it anymore And I completely understand that because if I wasn't doing the walkthrough I wouldn't have a membership to pirate and I think if they could Try and get a whole lot more new players in it would definitely help Them as a company Achieve more and hopefully allow them to update the game with a new world which we haven't seen since 2015 Or 2016 2016, sorry, which is crazy and It's kind of disgusting because it's a great game like if I could play one game I Would definitely be playing part one on one But I just don't because it's just so boring because nothing's new there's nothing to come back to the only reason This is something else you guys don't know the only reason I came back to was a 101 is because of pirate 101 I Learned that they were making a new game called pirate 101 and like hell. Yeah, that sounds lit So I decided why not I'm just gonna Play it and this was really early on I was I've played pirate 101 for a long long time Nearly since it came out. I think since it came out I've had an account of some kind playing the game, which is kind of crazy because I haven't been I Haven't ever in my life been so hyped for a game and then Yeah, and I started playing was a one-on-one as well because I'm like well why not I did did remember was a one-on-one. Obviously it was part of my childhood as worth the runescape those two games are kind of like my childhood games and I Thoroughly enjoyed was Obviously because I still play it and I came for pirate and then I'm like well, maybe I just thought was again Because why not? It was a fun game. Let's see what's different what's new and I came back to was in 2015 just Three days before the release of fishing so you can probably find out exactly when that was through the update notes but um, yeah, it was it was fun and I love Playing pirate 101 back then so I didn't play much on was I made my life character and it didn't go very far Because I just stopped playing it but because I was focusing on pirate which is in my opinion the superior game It honestly is the I Would like to say Pirate 101 is the best game that Kings Isle has ever created and I would definitely stick by that statement today It's a great game. It's very different to was a 101 and it's got far more strategy instead of just clicking random cards It's like you actually have to control your companions and how you move them Obviously, you guys know if you've watched my walkthrough, but um, I think that that type of game would be really good on steam because there's not many competitors for it and If Kings Isle had pulled it off well and actually updated it, I think it would have been Very very successful if they kept constantly updating it and just Improving the game even more and more and more like they have but it's been way too slow for it to become more mainstream and I think that It's something that should have become more mainstream and I think Possibly adding it to steam would give it its new life and New influx of players that would motivate the developers to start working on it again. Of course. I got nothing Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow shit all anyway And I think that's really important for a game to keep Evolving as technology evolves and I think that a next step for Kings Isle would be definitely putting it on Steam I think that would honestly be a really good idea for them Was a 101 on steam obviously would get more players and Possibly older players returning again because they play games on steam anyway I don't think it would change anything like membership prices. I honestly don't think they would do that at all My opinion But I also think before they put was a 101 especially on steam. I think they should definitely Update some things I've seen a lot of other people who play was on YouTube Talk about updates that they would like to see There's a lot of them that I agree with Especially changing your player. I think I personally wouldn't do that because I honestly I I love all of my characters they I don't name them ridiculously and Even if I did in the past like my own death my fire wasn't that I've done a video About finding my own accounts. I think way. I think a whole year ago I wouldn't change them for anything because they're part of me. They're nostalgic but um, some people really dislike and are unhappy with how they made themselves back in like 20 2008 2018 here definitely 2008 and I I don't know I would um, I sympathize with them obviously and I kind of is definitely really odd. I would say very odd of how Kingsile doesn't allow you to Change your character. I think it would be a big improvement for them if they could because Basically all other MMO RPG games, which is what was a 101 and Pirate 101 are cannot allow that in some way Whether it's like a one-time use or like three crowns or microtransactions, which people hate so much Which there's a whole nother topic as well But I think it would be a good improvement and there's also other things like Graphical updates making it all like flow Obviously, they're saying to do that with the cinematics All the cinematic camera angles. I don't actually remember what they called it But the dynamic camera angles, I think that's what they call it and was it when I'm in Wizard City through Dragon spy now, which is how they do it and chrysalis onwards Kind of like zooming the character into the character To like the character you're talking to and all that sort of stuff what they do in Pirate 101 basically And I love that. I think it gives a whole new kind of level to it. It's not It's bland anymore. It kind of gives a bit more movement, but anyway Another topic. I think if they continue doing that if they did some graphical reworks, which I really hope is Coming up in the producer's letter for the end of last year. They definitely said what was One of the things that I definitely remember is what was old will be new again And I'm kind of hoping that will be a graphical rework of some kind. I Really hope that they Yeah, that's kind of what I hope I really hope that they just work on old areas and making them better Before doing that but yeah, if they over all I would definitely think it would be good and healthy for both games to be put on steam and I really I Do hope that they Definitely look into it and do it My problem with things that people do is they just Don't do things So I think that what they should do is just go for it and Why not if it gets more players you earn money and if it gives more advertisement why not it earns more money Either way, I I kind of think that they should definitely go for it Like really should just do it no matter what all players. I don't think would be annoyed because it will Increase the player count, which is why people think this game is dying I use that in air quotes because this game really isn't dying. I've seen Like this game isn't doing well, but like it's not dying Like there's a lack of players, but with each update they Come back because at the moment. This is my morning my kind of morning afternoon Usually there's a couple round like look at this. These are all crowded, which is fantastic Straight after and Perrier came out there was I think all the way down to like blossom at one point was all full Which is crazy. I haven't seen that since Back in like the peak times of like 2015 and before Kind of like when I started playing again There was just the page full of like I remember coming on at like my the peak time Which is my early morning, which I often can't be on I've just seen like a page in a like a half of just full realms. It was ridiculous I'm like whoa this game so full and I Definitely think that if they wanted to make the illusion that it's more full they should cut down on the amount of realms that you can go to So like cut them down by like half because even these ones down here. They're still like perfect so But I personally prefer going on perfect realms just because I don't have a good computer to run the game and record at the Same time and I also kind of prefer playing by myself, but that's just me personally But yeah, anyway overall, I think that they should definitely consider going on Steam I don't know where this video went or how long it went. I kind of just Labeled for a bit, but um, yeah Hopefully hopefully there's something that can be taken out of that. I don't know But yeah, anyway, thank you for watching room to live a like and subscribe and if you've already subscribed press a little bell So you know exactly where I post another video and remember craft outside the box
