I only recently discovered this channel but it's so entertaining. These games are definitely in the category of "more fun to watch than play," for me, especially when it comes to these challenges. You've got a pretty niche role with your channel, I'd say, but you make it work pretty well.

[@everythingsalright1121]

Same boat as you, i dont have the mindset for these games. So complex...

[@shreknskrubgaming7248]

@@everythingsalright1121 exactly, I would give up so quick. I'll stick to "run around and shoot things," for my entertainment.

[@baconultimate6045]

I love games like these since sometimes a game that uses more smarts than mechanical skill can be super nice.

[@shreknskrubgaming7248]

@@baconultimate6045 I've got a decent amount of knowledge, but I can't say the same for intelligence. Basically, I know a lot about a lot of things, but I'm terrible when it comes to thinking outside the box or things like that. It's weird, honestly.

[@baconultimate6045]

@@shreknskrubgaming7248 I mean I guess but really the games like trailmakers and besiege and scrap mechanic it more about learning.

[@JohnDoe-ml4ye]

but does changing the machine retroactively make it unable to complete a previous level? For example, does removing the shrapnel cannon at the start of the second island remove the ability to beat the windy level? it would be nice to see you run though all the levels again with the final machine. Other than that, great video

[@hellohi2516]

Pretty sure that’s what he’s talking about by “second run-through.” He will redo them all to make sure he doesn’t need to make any more design changes

[@JohnDoe-ml4ye]

i’m sure he will, just something to keep in mind

He talks about a second part, I'm sure that's what he's going to do

[@preston6408]

@@JohnDoe-ml4ye he literally showed a score card for all the levels stating if they’ll be problematic and he’s working on making machine that will do all the levels. That was the whole point of the video

"The Duke's Dear Freighters" is a fantastic reference I definitely did not understand when I first played this game

[@legomotion77]

@@viking6917 It's a reference to a Dark Souls II boss, "The Duke's Dear Freja". Definitely an odd choice, but a great one

And if that doesn't work

@@dean_l33 More! ROCKETS!

[@patrickturner6082]

I made a massive shrapenal bomb which was basically layers and layers of bombs and grabbers. Press 'v' and the whole thing collapses and get set off. Like 750 pieces of max velocity shrapenal which literally wipes maps. Truly great....

[@dean_l33]

@@patrickturner6082 That's a niffty solution you got there. Impressed I am

[@minibosstank6505]

if that doesnt work drop a bomb

[@anonymousman4961]

"Just drop a bomb on everything" Reid has just invented the USA

[@nuc2726]

Use a plunger system of pistons or some other way to extend the grabber with the bomb so that when you release the bomb, you can then use the grabber more efficiently and get things that are on the ground or in holes

[@auri1075]

Probably a separating machine could do the job, and it would help you by focusing their builds to do one job each instead of all jobs.

[@noodledood12]

glad to see that people are still playing this game. this was a really creative idea :)) great vid!

[@Insanity_TM]

16:00 on the mine level you can find something in the rock that looks like a spiked egg maybe a dragon egg

[@tedwintheslyfox9382]

ngl, when the title said "only using one machine", i remembered markipler kinda did it long time ago. But yours is actually planning on how to do it. Great video as always 👍

[@cameronoakes7382]

Yes you can. There are quite a few ways and some people have done it with machines with less than ten blocks. I made an all zone machine a while ago.

[@bobaski]

At 17:00, you can put a rope/winch connected to the grabber and lower it down. It also works for like every over level where you need to pick something up

[@thebaddestogre-3698]

Nice to see people still loving this old gem!

[@justsomejerseydevilwithint4606]

A lot of dark souls references in the level names; awakening bells for bells of awakening, consumed king, the title of oceiros. The Duke's dear frigates for the Duke's dear freyja, a boss from dark souls 2. I like it.

[@Poisonjam7]

The Duke’s Dear Freighters….now that’s pretty funny. Well done, Besieged writers. 🤣

[@Hunter-ze3my]

The level with the freezing 0G cube can be solved by using a ballast, winch, and grabber, as all three of them are immune to freezing, and you can then use the winch to pull the cube to the insignia.

[@Juli-zy4ew]

Flashbacks of "the cube"...

[@B_dev]

pro tip: instead of skipping the ones that are repetitive, do a montage. Breaks up the voiceover with more action.

[@General_Taylor]

Reid: Hehehe rockets to brrrr Markiplier: I have yet to find a problem that can't be solved with explosives. Hmmm

[@user-ft3jq5vi2l]

Ah yes, as germans call it, the "Eierlegende Wollmilchsau" (egg-laying whooly milk-pig).

[@Secreto31126]

Hey Reid, have you ever tried to narrate a game *while* you are playing it? I love the way you narrate your videos, but I think talking while playing could be interesting too, like hearing your live reactions when something unexpected happens. Although, I admit it might not fit in many of the games you play. Just a suggestion :)

[@saidbateh9567]

agreed he should at least give us one video to try it out

[@fazbeark1ng]

or just cut to the reaction because of the time lapses and stuff

[@chance713]

That idea would work better as a livestream

[@TheChronova]

couldnt you move the bomb off to the side and add a piston to the grabber? so if you still need to grab it you can fly over it and pick it up, but also allows for grabbing things like the poison jug/book

[@taureon_]

there is this one ancient video where one dude built a massively overcomplicated box to do that same thing years ago

[@charlowo_]

Oh my god. I forgot about you for like 6 months. I just came back to watching you and, holy, your voice and your content is amazing. Gotta remember you

[@12...]

real quadcopters turn by having 2 propellers spinning clockwise and 2 counterclockwise (in opposite pairs) if they speed up 1 pair and slow down the other, it spins in the opposite direction but that only works if the game simulates the rotational force caused by a propeller spinning which idk if it does

[@serendipity-tilde]

I doubt it does, otherwise the drone would be spinning a lot more :P

[@mickys8065]

It does simulate rotational forces, but not with the small propellers used in the video. The spinning they do is purely cosmetic and gives 0 rotational force, while a propeller blade on a spinning block does give off rotational force

[@2no.1self]

These videos r a huge inspiration to me, I wanna do my own content but damn im lazy lmfao

[@datbubby]

Excited for part 2 :)

[@no_body4918]

Really interesting series, love your stuff!

[@brinks2469]

You could make the balloons detachable so in the wind level you push a button and they’re off

[@cream._4463]

Best channel to chill and watch

[@koromationsproduction]

so what I was thinking for the hard to reach grabber stuff is you put the grabber on ropes so you can adjust how far you grab making things like the freezing cube easier (plus a decup to give it some umph)

[@anonymousaltyn]

15:14 I feel like this isn't even a figure of speech, he just actually thinks about besiege levels when he sleeps.

Maybe putting a grabber on the front would help

[@ReidCaptain]

[@chipstick3856]

Thought this was going to be a new age version of the really old machine that beat every level (without rebuilding). Something more advanced and intricate than just an unfolding box. Main problem with this is that you could just delete everything except 1 wood block (or even the core) and it’s still “the same machine” because it retains one piece of the previous. Kinda cheap.

[@Rieny880]

Moral of the story: bomb it, everything, just drop a bomb on it

[@yuriprotector9091]

Please show the explosions next time, there is no reason not to. I would watch an 1 hour video of you talking over explosions. Also very good video :)

[@snortmemes9899]

This actually encounters a philosophical question. If you keep changing your machine, how much can you replace until it's not the same machine?
