hey man, keep up the good stuff. this channel is peak. you don’t see very much youtube channels with your style and enthusiasm. reminds me of 2016. amazin stuff octorebel.

[@Octorebel]

Wow, thank you so much for the kind words! I'm not sure if you know how much comments like these keep motivating me to make videos for fun :D I'm honestly just glad you really enjoy the content

[@skylinetanker8840]

@@Octorebel of course man, no need to thank. like i said, ur videos can make peoples day. as the viewers, we’re the ones who should be thanking you for your perseverance and work to putting out these videos. this can’t be easy. I am glad you are chasing ur dreams, and I wish you well on flying high with them. p.s. you play any dino games??? ark? the isle?

[@Octorebel]

Well said :D Though it was a little tiring putting out all these videos, it was most definitely fulfilling as well haha (Though with school, gotta slow to 1 upload per week, but still should be perfectly good) And yes! I have played a few dino games in my past lol Last year around this time, I started playing Ark and I WAS HOOKED! Meant to actually start playing w/ friends on Ark too but it hasn't happened yet sadly. THOUGH... this comment may be the thing I needed to get it going :) I've also played both JWE's too (plus a couple other games I can't remember rn)

@@Octorebel Jurassic world evolution?? heck yeah. did you ever 5 star everything? i think i got 5 stars only on one island LOL. what’s ur fav dino?? (hybrid counts too dw) you ever beat ark before? sorry for the unexpected Q&A lol.

[@Octorebel]

I'm PRETTY positive that I did 5 star all the main levels (at least in JWE 1), but I'm not totally sure cause I haven't played in a good while xD For my favorite most bestest most wonderful beautiful fantastic dino..... its definitely Toast (Carnotaurus) 🤣My whole dino childhood was absolutely fueled by TheGamingBeaver lol, so I developed an innate passion for a funni carnotaurus tryna ram something but totally missing by 10 feet lmao As for Ark, I haven't even gotten past the first boss lol. Basically, I started playing last year during Thanksgiving week, racked up 60+ hours in 5 days taming creatures and building a nice base. Then, I started watching Sl1pg8r again (another childhood hero of mine LOL), realized there was a story, maps, and EVERYTHING, watched a 2+ hour YT video about the entire lore of Ark, and have been extremely compelled to begin the journey ever since. Y'know wut, I'm definitely making a series out of Ark now, I just can't NOT make one XD Anyway, no worries about the Q&A lol. One of my favorite (if not my favorite) parts of being a KZbinr is having interactions with people in the comments like this, so this really made my day :D

You managed to kill the scorpion, but killing it when it has already grown and having a giant corpse there is different and even more so in impossible where in its juvenile form it is already the size of an adult, imagine in its adult form

[@Octorebel]

👀 Yeah, if I never knew about it, my colony would just die from when it first comes in xD

[@kraken0513_krakensito]

@@Octorebel Honestly I couldn't kill him in impossible mainly because the Matabele annihilated the enemy termites in their first raids, although I think that wasn't supposed to happen and rather it was because The termite soldiers were more busy fighting earwigs or my workers.

[@Octorebel]

Lmao, winning after the first night doesn't sound like it's meant to happen xD But that's honestly pretty funny lol

[@kraken0513_krakensito]

@@Octorebel It was actually my strategy because I discovered that if you attack the enemy termite mound workers they will send soldiers even if they are about to be attacked or are being cooked by the sun, So my strategy was to distract their armies long enough for the Matabele to finish them off.

[@Octorebel]

Lol, that's pretty well thought out. I knew that the termites came out if you even went next to their nest entrance, but i never used it to beat the level that quickly. Though, I might do that if one of the new achievements requires me to do so

[@kraken0513_krakensito]

If I challenged you to do "Drive Them Back" without facing siafu (Drivers ants) and without losing termite mounds on medium difficulty could you do it?

[@Octorebel]

wait... WITHOUT fighting the drivers?? that's possible? 0-0

[@kraken0513_krakensito]

@@Octorebel Yes, and also without fighting the termite mounds. "Although not as dependent on termites as the Matabele, stink ants also raid termites, and risk losing out if they let the siafu (Driver) ants dominate the termite mounds" - Narrator - That's the key, if you get a siafu scout to fight the stink ants they will likely end up being expelled, or lose up to 75 causalitys.

[@Octorebel]

OooOOOOooOoh, now thats interesting... ... i may try that someday in the future

[@kraken0513_krakensito]

@@Octorebel Although you will have to keep the stinky ants there and not run away to keep them in the fight

[@Octorebel]

That does seem a bit annoying, but still a cool challenge that I'll probably try nonetheless.

[@kraken0513_krakensito]

19:08 hablas español? O lo dijiste de broma? XD Do you speak Spanish? Or did you say it as a joke? XD

[@Octorebel]

🤣Unfortunately, I can't speak spanish lol, I only know a couple common phrases and 1-10 Ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch sprechen, aber nicht sehr gut ;) "I can speak a little German, but not very well" - I learned from Duolingo LOL otherwise, I'm monolingual ;-; (though, I'ma have to learn a 2nd language as part of school requirements so I won't be monolingual for too long :D)

[@kraken0513_krakensito]

@@Octorebel I speak Spanish (my native language) and English almost perfectly except for a few words that I don't understand and that I can't write very well some words (and since I'm not so confident that I wrote well what was written well) and my strategy is to use a translator, read the translation, Check that it is correct and that it can be understood and correct any misspelled words. I also study Latin (because most of my family speaks it) and French because it is a very interesting language.

[@Octorebel]

damn, that's impressive kudos to you for knowing a few languages 👍 Especially Latin, I'd assume it's more or less difficult to learn, but not really sure lol

[@kraken0513_krakensito]

@@Octorebel It really isn't that difficult because it has words similar to: Spanish, English, French, Italian, etc. Knowing 2 languages and almost a third it isn't that difficult to understand, Also if you speak it, it will be easier for you to learn more languages and that is another reason why I want to learn it.

[@Octorebel]

Y'know that really does make sense, honestly pretty interesting. Well, either way, I wish you luck in your language learning process :D
