I wanted to try out your game, but I'm hesitant to do so. Firstly, it seems like your developers aggressively respond to negative reviews and disable comments, which I find distasteful. Even on positive reviews, they seem to attack any criticism about the game. Additionally, I feel that $25 is too much to pay for a game that is still in Early Beta with limited content and options. I want to support your channel, but I felt the need to highlight these issues with the people you are working with. With that said, I do appreciate this video and an awesome look into the PAX environment for those of us who can't attend.

In the almost 26 years since they have grown a web comic about a couple of dudes who like video games and make crude jokes into a gaming media empire. PAX was originally a tiny get together of fans, and turned into essentially one of the primary gaming conventions in the world. Also, they are huge nerds. The "Tycho" character is directly named after Tycho Brahe, the Danish astronomer. They have also helped raise tens of millions of dollars for children's hospitals through their charitable foundation, Child's Play.

After listening to everyone it’s clear people want out of video games the same things they want out of life. The common threads I heard were: 1) Growth. Either as a person or in the game. Done through challenges giving you a sense of accomplishment. 2) To feel something. And not necessarily always needing to be positive emotions. Just make me feel something. I always cringe when I hear people talk about games being a “waste of time”. It’s often from people that view video games as a toy and not an art form. Certainly not ALL video games are of equal caliber, but you can say the same for music, books, movies, photos, paintings, etc. Yet somehow there are people that throw all video games into the same boat. It would be silly to say “music is a waste of time” just because one song is terrible and lacks artistry. Some of the best stories and art are now in video games as opposed to books and movies. I wish they got the credit they deserve, but unfortunately there are predatory purposefully addictive games that prey on the dopamine rush in a bad way impacting lives in negative ways and that’s what many people will focus on. But man, there are AMAZING games that can impact and enrich your life just as much as a good book, movie, song, or other work of art.

I've got to admit that going into this video it was a little touch and go. I thought here we have a none gamer who doesn't get it. He won't be able to cover this in a way that will either satisfy gamers or outsiders looking in at what all the fuss is about. BUT of course we have a very clever guy here who understands exactly what he's doing. Not only did he come to understand gaming at a very deep level that some people I feel may never actually grasp. Game = good or bad is as far as it goes for some. But also we started to get a real sense of what the mechanics in games are actually for. What are they achieving. What itch at they scratching. And it was actually quite amazing. I have never seen a video about gaming covered like this. It reminds me a little bit of that talk he gave about going back to the Moon. That started out a little touch and go too. You weren't exactly sure where it was going and whether anyone wanted him to go there haha. But of course it also turned out to be one of the best videos I've ever seen about space, period. I'm sorry I doubted you, I should have known to just hang in there and go with it.

I’ve watched tons of game expo videos from gaming creators and this is one of the very best that I’ve seen. Part of that is the baseline of knowledge that Destin brings to something new, but the other part is just the patient interest that he brings to each interview, really pulling out the core of what people believe and value in their games. There’s also a really earnest permission that Destin offers to each pitch to advocate for each game while talking and sharing what the devs love about their games. I’m deeply familiar with this “field” and the way he advocates for understanding here ads value to everything else he’s put out looking at other fields.

Another very cool thing that comes to mind when talking about Universe Sandbox is Space Engine, Universe Sandbox is the one you go to when you want to mess around with things and Space Engine is the one you go to for observing things. Space engine really gave me the realization of how small we actually are and how big the universe truly is, after travelling from the Earth to the Sun at light speed knowing how fast the speed of light is and it taking around 8 minutes to get to the Sun just like in real life really put that concept into perspective for me. Especially when you consider that doing the same thing but going to Proxima Centauri instead (the nearest star to us) would take more than 4 years to do it, or the Andromeda galaxy which would take more than 2.5 million years at the speed of light. I already knew these things beforehand but when you actually get a realistic visual representation it really blows your mind.

They have a unique problem of needing to simplify simulations but still preserve the behavior even when they are sacrificing accuracy for speed.

But you should know, they don't make those keyboards anymore, and if you get one, you will only have access to the free features. Fortunately, the screen mirroring they're doing is a free feature on all supported devices, and it's really good. You could do this with your 90+ RGB keyboards you have laying around, basically any brand as far as I can tell, and not have to pay for SignalRGB (unless they have a device number limit on the free tier... idk). Overall, I wouldn't pay for the monthly, but if you want something to get a few good effects, and screen mirroring across multiple devices with one UI, download it. Idk, that just seemed like something worth noting.

I'm laughing but I can see the level of commitment and joy that these guys experience. I'm not a game person but this video has been an eye opener into the world of how games are constructed and what the purpose is and the objective in making it immersive and challenging for the user. Thanks Destin. I keep editing this post. TJ is a laugh. "Setting your food on fire". OMG that is hysterical. I can just imagine kids playing this and rolling on the floor laughing. Such a lot of fun.

PAX Prime is on Labor Day Weekend, which will tell you how long this one was in the edit. I remember when the whole event fit in the Convention Center. East still does, but it's a bigger convention center.

Not into gaming at all, but I like how Destin makes a good video about it.

I feel like Destin would be the kind who would like Factorio... but I could be wrong. Kerbal Space Program for sure.

Games are the ultimate media platform. You’re live rendering a world you’ve created top to bottom. You get to control everything a user experiences and it can include haptic feedback, sound, visual, and experiences not possible out of a book, video, music. On top of that you’re often pushing engineering boundaries to provide some best in class experience but also just because that’s what you need to make make computers do cool things haha. I just love everything that has to come together to actually get a game to a user. I didn’t do game programming but I’ve been toying with firing up some side project again after this.
