Pointless [Saxxy 2017]

[@the_winglet]

You do a really neat job of telling stories with little to no dialogue, I like it! Great video man :)

[@Kostamoinen]

Thanks, appreciate it. x)

[@medkit1290]

Awesome

[@AdrlOink]

Did you know you got killed in Kostamoinen's winning the saxxy video? At least I think it was the real you.

[@Icke-existant]

StickMaster500 has more likes on his comment than u

[@rjpena6273]

The Winglet love your smf's!

[@guessingguy7865]

Heavy stared into the void. It comforted him.

[@TheFlameMasterMC]

And he became self aware

[@mariobros237]

I'm having a deja Vu, where is this from?

[@James-xe8dq]

He stared into the abyss and the abyss stared back

[@thebreadbringer]

Finally. Heavy find enemy his own size!

[@gabegamer8646]

Check your like number

[@YourCrazyDolphin]

Here's a detail- While Heavy acts more realistically during the firefight at the start, everyone else around him still moves mechanically like they do in the game (particularly notable with scout moving left and right)- matching with the Heavy being the most aware too: the rest just being ignotant mindless bots. Or it was just easier to give them stock animations.

[@tobyret9302]

This is Kostamoinen and this animation fo Saxxy. You're right about bot theory i think.

[@Victor-056]

There's an easily missed detail in this as well. Look at the Red Spy he spared. His movements after bumping into heavy are not mechanical... And when Heavy aims his shotgun, Spy _Drops his Knife._ It's also notable that when Heavy left, we're not shown the Spy's face or what his motions are as he runs off. This means only one thing... Heavy is not alone.

[@ziha0499]

Red sniper didnt have stock animations tho

[@cerocero2817]

A hatless spy not killing a friendly opponent??? That's a real mystery

[@daniell1786]

Cero Cero I dont usually have hats on my spy and i dont kill friendlies

[@cerocero2817]

It's but a joke, even i sometimes go hatless as spy, but there's a lot of truth in this stereotype, almost every time i see/join a group of friendlies in a match it ends with a inexperienced pyro or spy killing mindlessly

[@C0rruptedSpY]

he dropped his knife

[@PuzzlingGoal]

Cero Cero I'm... Not sure I get it.

[@objectingobject1398]

mystery*

[@mrcomp1971]

Ah shit, heavy became self aware.

[@GeZz.]

heavy is high AF

[@dgrunklesamiii4615]

mrcomp we need to have a game plan to givethis guy a memory wipe. mrcomp, you fly above him to serve as a distraction. Stickmaster5000, kneecap him to slow him down. Spy the was just offered mercy by the heavy, break his legs. By that point, me and some others will hold him down so the spy can give him a concussion. From there we take him to the administrator and she'll have someone give him a memory wipe.

[@dgrunklesamiii4615]

Captain general of the adeuspts Custodys in the comics heavy outsmarted the administrator's guards to get to her just to ask for a new gun. Then MyM happened. Heavy what have you done.

[@thisisrandall]

Just Heavy

[@pyrrehraus6571]

ThisIsRandall *Sayonara plays but replaced by "poot"*

[@jadedninny3212]

2:02 I love the way Heavy acknowledges what Engie said with a "Hmph"

[@helfire14]

Those who take the game seriously and really get into it, and those who realise it's just a game and decide how they like to have fun? That's what I get from it. Regardless, good job, a nice narrative without being too self-serious and enough humor mixed in to flesh out it's style. Well made, and well done.

[@Kostamoinen]

Quite a peculiar experience. In a world where everything is done, here was something different. Hope you enjoyed it! Higer resolution picture of the thumbnail/poster: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1317448077

[@danwopp2697]

Kostamoinen of course we enjoyed it like always

[@Crowborn]

Amazing work. Really interesting how he tries to point that to others but they dont even wanna hear something from outside of their small lives. Just like us humans :)

[@manuelkfc7916]

Kostamoinen I'm a man of culture, i see a new video of Kostamoinen, I know i'm going to learn a valuable lesson in life.

[@ZachX888]

Truly an excellent piece of animation. Wonderful concept, I hope you continue with it in the future.

[@tahsinbinkabir]

i love your videos Kostamoinen Keep it Up Man!

[@StickMaster500]

This is what happens when you surpass Noclip

[@Schmorbo]

StickMaster500 everywhere you are

[@Falconwing3]

yes

[@sopito9923]

duck

[@KKYY12]

Yep

[@spinozilla2421]

stickmaster is everywhere and is always guarantee to be in tf2 video,pokemon or silver gunner video

[@kafelkan1482]

This is like one of those Lovecraft stories where they go mad from the revelation except Heavy takes it pretty well. Everyone else lives in Ignorance while Heavy stares laughing at the unbearable truth. Myös on aika kiva tietää toinen suomalainen joka ehkä ajatelee yhtä syvällisiä.

[@manuelkfc7916]

Onuak Alasnak so deep.....

[@gweegweezoozoo]

Manuel kfc yeah i think it broke him, that's not laughter of a sane man

[@manuelkfc7916]

Harold P. Penisman but if he really know he's not real and everything, that would explain why he's not scare or frightened when is playing cards with talking animals and guys from alternative dimensions in Poker Night At the Inventory. Xd

[@kafelkan1482]

PivotmλrtuX Ia Ia!

[@Victor-056]

Two years later, and I cannot _BELIEVE_ we all missed this. When the Red Spy ran into the Heavy, he did two things no class can do in-game... One, he _Stumbled,_ and Two... _He dropped his Knife._ In TF2, you cannot drop your weapon until Meet Your Match, and even then, it was to swap your weapon for a similar weapon. This gives a BIG Significance to Heavy Sparing the Red Spy... As Heavy realized that he's not truly alone in this Tale of Existential Crisis. He spared a member of his Kin. It's likely why he was able to accept his existence at the end. He's not truly alone.

[@ravenwashere1776]

I noticed that too! The spy holds his hands up as well, something that you can't do in game that I'm aware of, except maybe as a taunt. Heavy seems to notice this and backs off. I wish we could see how the spy went on this journey too.

[@NoName-sg8pz]

1:16 Denial 1:29 Anger 1:47 Bargaining 1:58 Depression 2:38 Acceptance

[@VoltShatter]

The TF2 theme at the end gave me chills.

[@T1mT1msen]

*THEY'RE IN SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!*

[@conqtron3702]

I dont think you got it

[@mario8533]

It means there in a maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap!

[@gurpreetsinghgurpreetsingh9969]

+Mr. Meme saxuygarlkme

[@EternalFireOnTop]

In the trees

[@TheFoolishSamurai]

Spy's probably thinking: "This gibus doesn't even know how to shoot!"

[@IanZeep]

*Good Stuff*

[@fourme7]

*iz nice*

[@asdadaadasfwe3yef456]

*Da*

[@asdadaadasfwe3yef456]

Erhmmm..... Да!

[@Navisition]

Dah

[@mungs2321]

Iz it cocaine?

[@viccyyboii3308]

It would be nice to see more adventures of THAT Heavy

[@communistpootisbirb]

Fake 0:39 that totally would have counted as a headshot coming from the huntsman.

[@nonamenosauce]

@Sgt Cancer nah that arrow was fully charged

[@MrSamulai]

1. Starting to question the meaning of your life. 2. Realization that it has none. 3. Questioning if you are alone, seeing how everyone else is able to keep going. 4. Apathy and indolence. 5. Accepting your own insignificance and deciding to just have fun with what you've got.

[@kumpir6150]

woosh

[@ralphgonzalez8202]

He also eats mush

[@dsadsa726]

1.Starting to question the meaning of your life. 2.Realizing it has none. 3.Questioning whether you're worthy to keep breathing or not. 4.Apathy and indolence. 5.Suicide attempt. 6.Realisation that you've been victimizing yourself. 7.Leaving to Chile to teach kids english. 8.Realizing life is most beautiful gift you could've ever gotten.

[@MrSamulai]

I've been stuck at 4. for the longest time now, thanks for the correction.

[@dsadsa726]

MrSamulai I just felt like sharing how it was for me. Don't give up bud,issues really are circumstantial,it's all in your head.

[@josephadams6351]

A metaphor for how small we are in the universe

[@ryemaclone360]

Wow, this is intriguing! A self aware heavy about tf2 and what they are fighting for. I like it!

[@SciRei7H3dEG3NeR4T3]

Woah, this vid kinda gave me chills. XD I do love myself some self-awareness, just not if it’s over-redundant.

[@xd1498]

Yeah... if I can't do much to change, it's just better to get used to (or at least try)... otherwise, the same psychological drama strikes in me over and over again... some conformism in this regard has been the best way to deal with that ;-; whatever

[@tostie3110]

SciRei Fireshock yeah this was unsettling

[@VictorTheProcrastinator]

The fact that I forgot you for months is weird...

[@Idothinkysaurus]

I felt the same about a year ago, you get used to the "Oh yeah" experience after awhile.

[@cyuubii]

0:50 I always thought they just shove it into their wounds and they'd be fine

[@MrJeff-sy6mg]

Players point of view of playing as a Heavy Scout 0:05 to 0:26

[@prepolo976]

k

[@Niiue]

uh, it’s called fat scout. eh.

[@yoosperson9753]

the animation is realy fluid , the video realy was good , please do more :3

[@Kostamoinen]

Absolutely! That's what i've been doing. (for about 6 years now..) ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽

[@beastslayer9368]

I love the narrative in this video, i love how heavy instead of going through an existential crisis after learning that hes in a game, he thrives with the idea, seeing it as a good game. This coupled with the animation really creates an intricate story.

[@TheSmollest]

I love the touch of realism in your videos. Its brilliant!

[@BootScoot]

Oh, so that's why there's more friendly heavies than serious ones.

[@wanderer_newalbum]

For me, this is still the best work of Kosta.

[@dutchman5435]

Meet the self aware heavy

[@LineX240]

I'm very late, but I gotta say this is really well made. I also liked when he drinked the medkit. Good job!

[@realPNDR]

This is deeep

[@drogoburrows8805]

Kineto it's not that deep

[@ReTeep_]

The cave was deeper

[@jackspedicy2711]

Kineto the 3th and 4th top comments have mlp profile pics... I quitted it a week ago becose the show sucks now

[@DreddLypso]

Never, in all my life have I seen a view that's actually enthralled me- no- kept me in a state of 'wow'. From the expressions- everything- Its just. Amazing. Honest. Good job man! This should be a series!

[@temmiedestructo7309]

This is really good. The spy part was the best part; the foreshadowing from the engineer, the way that the expressions show so much emotion, the way that the lower angle shows how solemn the heavy is and how confused and scared the spy is. It's an amazing scene, and it makes me appreciate this animation even more than I already did.

[@duplollamaree1250]

I forgot how much I love every single one of the videos you make. I've been reminding myself for the whole night. it feels good to watch this again, feels comfy in a weird kind of way

[@heavygaming-com]

It's really curious work of yours. When it was first came out I didn't even noticed it. But now after 5 years, when I really don't know what to do in my life, I feeling something that I can't describe. Good video.

[@swedneck]

I like how it's heavy experiencing these 4th wall breaks and philosophical conundrums, it makes sense because heavy is actually one of the smartest people in the game and has a background in (IIRC) literature and philosophy.

[@TheOwlslayer]

here comes the existential horror~! Great video, pretty interesting stuff.

[@paulf.t]

Valve : *Ban Heavy , the Heavy know the secret*

[@MrAuthor3DS]

Guy just needed a moment to sit back, see the full picture, and unwind. After accepting that truth, he doesn't have any worries to bog him down. That's what I got from the ending, anyway.

[@anthonycavuoti5663]

This is what SFM was meant for.

[@dadmitri4259]

When it zooms out into the void. The impact on that zoom alone is like, wow.

[@benjigrayscale9276]

In terms of animation it feels (or at least for me) like a meet the... Animation really cool keep it up

[@shalala2091]

holy shit, everytime i play on hoodoo, i think about going through that cave. thanks for showing me what's behind the curtain

[@swedgie2638]

Congrats on that Saxxy my dude, experienced it firsthand on 2fort yesterday.

[@justmovedin]

I really like the way you edited the health kit working!

[@william_brobrine8975]

Interesting video. I like how you show that he holsters his shotgun no one does that except in official material

[@multigrandmarquis]

I've been looking for this video for two years.

[@Doktor_CC]

damn this is trippy af, heavy knows everything around him is not real and he just now goes along with it.

[@yagazieosuji5308]

you know, even though TF2 has to be one of my favorite games out there, sometimes i think about its future. Mayby thats what the video is trying to reveal also the way the demoman died was fucking awesome

[@neromastic4512]

Man these are some Excellent Animations. Excellent work Mate. I love it.

[@Metastudios]

Great animation and original idea! I love how in some parts heavy is mocap mixed with realistic animation, but everything else is made to look like they are part of the game. Very clever stuff. It is also good that there are so many little details in every scene! :D music is also good

[@crimsonlanceman7882]

It must have taken a lot of time to make that version of the map, and it shows. Ur dedication is amazing.

[@kittyface3505]

I love this, it annihilates the fourth wall, while keeping things interesting 10/10

[@robertmihai2023]

i never knew i would see heavy this way...badass action and some little drama. im impressed

[@TrytheGreenOne]

Creative, I like it! I became interested when the filming got weird, quite different from the usual string of jokes. A bit spooky and a bit peaceful

[@chunkular7152]

Nice dude, very smooth.

[@MadGameBoy]

really hate that the sfm entries have to be only 3 minutes... I want to see more of this plot :c

[@Idothinkysaurus]

Too much medicine.

[@misteralfredo]

Nice! I've never felt existential dread from an SFM before. Well done!

[@biscuit564theiii5]

I remember at one time I was doin acid frequently, honestly it was a blast and it was amusing as hell but one day when I was on acid. I would start to think about life and if I what I was doin was how I was really spending my life. It was the worst time of my life because at the time nobody was open to talk to me because I was a “druggie” and nobody cares about you then. I eventually sobered up enough to stop doing tabs but damn this video related to how heavy just dropped the shotgun..

[@Kostamoinen]

Psychedelic substances certainly should not be used for fun and good times. They often induce intense spiritual and mystical experiences and they bring out all the unconscious shit and abuse the user might have ignored in his life. Now, if you wanted to bring this out, they can be a great tool. I hope you found some help and support

[@biscuit564theiii5]

Kostamoinen yeah I remember from the times I had used it before it was more of a relaxing feeling and something to used to laugh but I saw that doing acid wasn’t gonna get any better and it was either a worse feelin than before or just not as appealing so I thankfully left it. Thanks for replying, I appreciate you took the time to write out something, love your vids and everything you’ve helped produced !

[@WatchYouUpTo]

Just Heavy.

[@GalaxicMeh]

Congrats Dude! Keep up the good work!

[@ImpyWorm]

Kick Player: Heavy? (accused of being idle) But good job on this though! Glad someone did something with the unexplored sections of the maps!

[@theoriginalmasterchief9993]

U make such funny TF2 vids keep up the good work 👍🏽

[@bilbo4780]

Youre animations are so perfectly realistically animated i love it

[@ajkk55]

Animation, story, everything about this is amazing

[@Cakeorpieify]

Love the idea of them becoming self aware

[@joeyanderson4669]

Dude! Your videos are amazing!

[@abinjjaimon]

Huh? Edit:After rewatching, I found heavy is going to come to the human world. And good stuff, mate.

[@syfox3388]

Pretty nice, probably voting for this!

[@npc_blob1609]

This was essentially me when I first noclipped and discovered that the maps have ends.

[@WaveSmash]

If I where in this situation, I'd do EVERYTHING I COULD to alert my team and explore the limits of the void.

[@tuxedeoboi9155]

the heavy will become real in 15min

[@gbyjrjn]

Waited for this video for last 3 years. This was good, but to short, there is much more behind this concept of being self-aware.

[@ancientdevil7186]

The truth has been showed to this one Mann perhaps he will share his knowledge of the world they live in.

[@CeoOfSheeps]

I need a wallpaper of the miniature

[@electron9678]

Jacket HLM just screenshot it

[@dogman15]

Kostamoinen could make a better-looking still image of the zoomed-out map by itself.

[@sirpizza2044]

This needs to win

[@murlacose72]

this is why you block off areas with invis walls

[@AgsmaJustAgsma]

You somehow made an even more meta video than Live, Diet, Repeat. Amazing.

[@romandiaz2802]

Welcome back!It's good to see a new video of yours!

[@Kostamoinen]

Never left in the first place! Sorry, these take some time to make.

[@romandiaz2802]

Kostamoinen It's fine to be honest,and thanks for replying.Have a goodnight/day.

[@maladroitknight]

Tonight on Team Fortress 2: Heavy has an existential crisis

[@saintsugoi]

Agh, glad to have you back dude

[@moodymoosh]

The fact that he shows spy mercy and spy doesn't even question it suggests this happened more often

[@theturtlefromjojo1934]

Hoovy pootis heavy is an hearted artist who see the world as a jail and the real world is just void.... Empty... Depression....

[@juusoj.1007]

Wow, an accurate presentation of heavys experience of the war: a nightmare with respawn preventing him from waking up. Good job!

[@doorknobr]

This is why, you *NEVER. EVER. EVER!* Accept small health bottles from the Medic from STBlackST's world.

[@HellishSpoon]

Most fear the void But he could only laugh while staring down the void Now thats a real man.

[@johnjekyllson28]

This is really interesting. Great video, Kosta!

[@null-0-f1h]

Valve member:"HE KNOWS I REPEAT HE KNOWS!" Gaben:"Dont worry ban him"

[@beet158]

When Heavy lost Sasha and finds the realm of tf2 maps. “Oh my god.... SASHA, SASHA ARE YOU THERE”

[@AlsoTheBlueBoy]

So Deep, Very Melancholic and on same time filling the curiousity in mind, i love it, such of a very good sfm, I'm also trying to makes a animations but is being hard..I'll try my best..i wish one day win the saxxy

[@thebeastkoolaidman]

I love this realistic animation!!

[@Rei-uq1jv]

Heavy realize that fighting is nothing but a pointless thing

[@swordguy60]

Its nice to see you again, I very much enjoyed this video.

[@shadydusty1023]

I would love to see a continuation of this please.

[@chilidog2469]

Just imagine if every time a game ended all the characters just froze there on a timer waiting to be used again, like a sort of Purgatory

[@weedeater237]

0:52 that face heavy makes is weird but laughable at the same time.

[@genkoti]

Do not fear the void. Fear the person who looks into it, and looks away unphased.
