Plague Inc. Wiki editor and longtime community member here, thank you for giving the game a boost in exposure and popularity with this video. It’s a game with fascinating mechanics, so I’m glad you took the time to learn them through. 😊 By the way, Severity is a trade off mechanic - humanity’s response will be stronger, but you get more DNA from popping bubbles :)

[@toxicthereporter515]

I honestly don't believe this has ever actually mattered for anyone who is playing the game at any serious level; casually - yes. You might have to contend with severity, especially if playing but otherwise? Severity has very little impact other than increasing relative cure research (basically non-existent depending on your playstyle) and affecting how fast you're discovered. It's a mechanic that only exists to punish bad play, and has no real integration with the rest of the game - past merely providing a convenient way to farm DNA (massively spike infectivity & severity when ready to get huge amounts of DNA)

Just in case you were wondering the "manufactured memory" sounds like a psychology concept called "false memories" where if you gather enough information, your brain begins to really want to put everything together to make an actual story. It actually starts to piece together real events, imaginary details made up by the mind, and sometimes details distorted by other memories as well. These memories can actually begin to feel so real that in the past during law cases, there has actually been innocent suspects who start believing they were actually involved in the crime, resulting in false confessions.

[@neoqwerty]

me with that one memory that I SWEAR TO GOD I saw ending credits on Duck Hunt after clearing wave 20. It's impossible, and I suspect that I glitched it something fierce and somehow got garbage letter tile barf from the Mario Bros side (it was a Super Mario 1 + Duck Hunt cart) and my brain never actually read the "contents" of the credits, I was just satisfied I "beat" Duck Hunt on my birthday, even if I was cheating with the zapper right against the CRT screen to turn my gun into a hitscan weapon. And that's the generous explanation, I may have just hallucinated or fabricated that memory wholesale because I really fricking wanted to beat Duck Hunt.

[@f.d.3289]

@@neoqwerty maybe you dreamt that and then confused the actual event with the dream. i had quite a few memories that by now i think must have been dreams because it would make absolutely no sense if they were true. i also have something that i believe to be a very early memory, but which i thought to be a dream for 35 years. there is only a very thin and fuzzy line between dreams and memories. both are reflections of reality that are created by our brain, and which thus evolve over the years, with there being no way to tell "truth" from "fantasy" except communication with others.

She was spayed at 7, and they accidentally found out she had a severe hernia when spaying her- it saved her life by chance as she presumably would only have about a week left if unchecked, the poor thing's a fighter- she never changed how she act, we never would have known!

Actually, the topic you shared about the "manufactured memories" is truly fascinating! Your personal story, though 'fake' memory, really got me thinking. It's incredible how our memories can be shaped and influenced, especially at such a young age. Just a while ago, a friend and I were reminiscing about a trip we took, and through our conversation, some details seemed to get embellished or altered. It made me realize how susceptible our memories are to suggestion, not only in childhood but also in adulthood. I wonder how often this happens in various aspects of our lives. It's intriguing to consider the malleability of our recollections.

It's not without its flaws, but every entry is a super solid movie in its own right and unlike other trilogies that are notorious for DRASTICALLY dropping off in quality in the later installments, this one holds strong until the end, with an emotional finale if you've watched from the start. As examples of other trilogies that I think handle themselves extremely well I'd list the Hunger Games and How to Train Your Dragon trilogies, with Maze Runner being pretty dang solid overall though with a few more blatant flaws than the others.

It's interesting seeing shadow virus speedruns because I always learned to play it super slow and steady because if you don't trigger the actual infection and instead just sit in one place farming until you have like infinite points, you can basically just win every time

[@invu_lynn]

This game always makes me anxious and worried about a random plague breaking out in the world but here I am watching anyways. Love you!!!

[@otakranio1417]

Man, I love this game, it's rare for me to watch a full one hour video, amazing video as always!

[@Garrett123]

59:19 literally all the time I could be somewhere that I’ve never been before and I smell something that I remember from my childhood

[@Marx_ii]

6:50 using Saudi Arabia for 9/11 plagues is too meta

[@seccsycabbage2979]

As a kid I never even managed to finish the virus stage so its kinda satisfying seeing this now. Patience and strategy were not my strongest suit :))

[@V4MP992]

Congratulations man you deserve it! Keep up the good work!

[@Izayoink_Saccuy]

Tips: its a good idea to get more severity in early game of mega brutal since it gives you more dna per bubble popped

[@tristanokert-xn8dq]

Thanks!

[@pedrorenault5335]

That bit where you started talking about random insights in the vampire virus was youtube gold

[@maxbracegirdle9990]

Hell yeah, i loved this game. I could never get past virus though. (The second one, not the first one hahah) One thing a lot of people dont know you can sell traits back for DNA. So if you get a random mutation that you dont like, you can get rid of it. (He does this during the simian flu.) Also, madagascar and greenland were always the worst for me I had a good strategy that when id get any symptoms, you can delete them for DNA to use somewhere else, and id put it all into infection. Then once everyone was infected, id take all the DNA back and put it all into symptoms to just watch everyone die hahaha

[@catboytavi]

i also did that... these days it can cost dna to unevolve, though, so i wouldn't recommend doing that ^^;;

[@maxbracegirdle9990]

@@catboytavi Oh really?? That sucks. That was my go-to strat hahaha, maybe it was too OP

[@The24thWight]

It kinda depends on difficulty and the disease. But yeah. Most of the time it costs dna to unevolve.

[@andrewmcphee3099]

Always up to the best of speed runs

[@MrEvanNoyes]

I’ve always been curious, do you keep all your route notes for these games? You could be the biggest speed runner help website ever if you did and uploaded them lol

[@Delta5x7]

"We're gonna be using Saudi Arabia for 9 out of 11 plagues" What did he mean by this?

[@austinwilburn1772]

I just recently found this channel and this content is really good. I’m surprised KZbin hasn’t suggested you in the past. Definitely worth a sub.

[@MARTINZONN]

I like how it changed from Eazy documenting the game to sharing his memories

[@darksmiley5081]

Genetic drift does affect everything, which makes mega brutal so difficult. You can pick sympto-stasis, patho-stasis or trans-stasis, but not all of them at once, so you still have to be quick because everything is going to cost more and more

[@typicalfangirl2001]

So while watching this I was playing plague inc on my phone, just relaxing. I was listening yet sorting out at the same time, yet my attention was fully grabbed when I heard you mentioning a dog named Lucky. I have a dog named Lucky (he's currently snuggling up to me). I just found it interesting that we both had/have a dog with the same name.

[@_antisocialmedia6377]

I love how by the end of the run there was no more speedrun tech to talk about so he just rambled about random thoughts

[@thatdoggoo]

57:36 Love you too man

[@Dipply]

No I did not expect the wholesome sweet message near the end but I’m very happy to hear it :) thanks speezy

[@kennymcintyre9186]

i like the tomato anus style positivity shout out. it’s always nice to hear even when i do start to expect it. it’s important to hear those types of things especially in todays world, and a chill video like this that people would probably watch to escape from life is a great place for it. appreciate it

[@ashleydraws7443]

the random affirmation of being loved caught me so off guard, but thank you

[@zenjitlst1330]

57:32 really caught me off guard and made my day genuinely Easyspeezy is the goat

[@logancartwright8280]

What you mentioned about creating fake memories is both common and fascinating. Researchers studying testimonies after 9/11 found that witnesses' recollections of their memories changed as they received more information about the event. This phenomenon, known as 'memory conformity' or 'post-event misinformation,' shows how new information can alter or even create false memories. Some people even recalled details that were physically impossible.

[@frostlord1246]

Your speed running skills are so good, its sickening

[@Crafty_Breeze]

It's like his skills are infectious

[@anshsgh6092]

I can't even imagine how he coughs up that much skill

[@superintendentvergil9928]

57:56 I came here to watch a speedrun and ended up questioning the way our brains work and the fact that I think I remember many things I didn't even experience

[@Rundy975]

Same. My parents told me a fake story and then I somehow created a fake memory of it then I was surprised to know it never happened

[@The2Cat7Guy]

I'm so glad you played this game! :D

[@danielhonetschlager8508]

6:53 so he really just *used Saudi Arabia for 9/11* plagues, i mean whether that's intentional or not, amazing subtle humour

[@gamersfinest5319]

17:32 The like 2M people left must’ve all been doctors somehow lol

[@syd_dasciencekid63]

its a great day when eazy uploads❤

[@cyruscordaro8444]

Damn an hour long vid You deserve the record man 👏👏

[@chronosgod1]

28:13 canada got destroyed in seconds.

[@waterninten]

I also love hearing you talk! And I also needed that bit of encouragement so thank you. I always love watching your videos

[@cebulkagra6988]

Thanks

[@daikietquach4853]

How are you not pinned 🤫🤫🧏‍♂️🧏‍♂️

[@Kemoa7966]

Hear me out, He does a true 100% undertale speed run

[@violaedwards2897]

Sickness speedrun

[@insanely_tired]

I just realized that this game could turn into a real life situation at any point

[@TheChris2hill]

2019: Am I a joke to you?

[@genericname2747]

Literally Covid

[@jeepercreepers9]

I always thought the humans in this game were ridiculous when it came to dealing with diseases, easy mode literally says that sick people were given hugs, but after COVID happened this game started to feel a lot more real with the kind of stuff people were doing in real life

[@kichiroumitsurugi4363]

​@jeepercreepers9 Meanwhile the pointers for Mega Brutal on Cure Mode: - Everyone believes fake news - Doctors play Plague Inc all day - Sick people given hugs

[@recordkeepingandinformatio8206]

6:50 “we’re gonna use *saudi arabia* for *9/11* of the runs” i see what you did there

[@technoformers5974]

if you enjoyed the "lore" of the simian plague in PLAGUE INC then you'll absolutely love the movies i would advice you to watch them, was pleasure to see you speedrun a game i love so much
