Sometimes YT hands you a diamond, this is one of those occasions. This is an excellent video and raises the bar in many ways. Please continue to make videos this way.

[@MrBigloltonne32]

this is incredibly well made...its almost like an ASMR, very relaxing

[@diedforurwins]

I was just going to say how much I hate ASMR nonsense…. This is genuinely so calming and zen I don’t even want the game anymore, just going to binge watch this and relax 😂

[@technomage6736]

It's the same background music used in some guided meditation videos 😄 Coupled with his soft voice, it's no wonder it sounds ASMR

[@Kronos0999]

Eugh.

[@PekkanN]

Agreed

[@captainpjarker]

I’ve fallen asleep every night to it. I have insomnia. Something about his voice and this video is just so soothing. Haven’t had problems sleeping in 5 days now :)

[@tw1tchie]

Man, I hope this channel takes off to the moon. So chill and relaxing in a game that can be both at any given moment.

[@HoudiniDUB]

well it didnt

[@moustacherie7042]

Not sure why the algorithm brought this to me, but man... I love it. Simultaneously soothes and intensifies my wanderlust.

[@Kybo69]

Came for the game. Stayed for that voice and the atmosphere.

[@stephengordon576]

stumbled across this playlist a few days ago *April 2024* and I have to say this is the most entertaining play through of Snowrunner I've seen. Its a very slow placed game but the way you edit the videos make it extremely interesting to watch. A belated thank you, to you good sir!

[@itakofkarstaag]

Finally decided to give Hard Mode a shot and this series has been invaluable. There have been a few times when I thought I could do something better or skip a step and I was punished for my hubris. Unfortunately Knull seems to have stopped around eight months ago but the videos up until then are top-tier.

[@ChineseQueen]

way more like 10 1/2 months.

[@jordanoliveto5863]

@@ChineseQueen he said that 2 months ago

[@Beencheeling]

Its really old, a year ago but still, great and i agree with ya, TOP

[@crispybottom]

As a person who loves Australian accents in ASMR, this series is a god-send, best ASMR walkthroughs I've ever seen.

[@mrfalcon7871]

I really miss this guy, no one else on yt have a series that is as relaxing as these videos I’ve watched every video @Knullmoderm has made and I keep coming back to this series. Hope he’s doing well!

[@lolroflroflcakes]

The focus on chill you are taking here really matches up with the nature of the game. It's not frantic, it's not even a laugh and have a good time with friends. It's just that, chill. There's no people, no dialogue, just engine noise, vistas and methodical problem solving. It's literally a meditation tool.

[@ApMignonne]

Just started rewatching after having finished episode 61 about two months ago. Had almost forgotten just how good and relaxing these videos are...

[@An70n1ZzZz1]

I love the way you edited the video. Fast forwarded gameplay with commentary and music. Very relaxing. Just what I needed. Thank you.

[@ozgurtaylann]

I dont sub easily, but seeing how educated and well executed this walkthrough is I immediately hit the button. Top notch content.

[@chloewebb5526]

The vibe of this video and your voice go hand in hand with the relaxing and lonely atmosphere of Snowrunner and it's gameplay loop. This is really helping me mentally prepare myself to start a completely new Hard Mode save

[@JDKempton]

Came here from a Reddit thread and glad I did very good tutorial. Looking forward to watching all the series. 👍

[@stern1994]

Same here!

[@cumunist2120]

Me too but definitely a different one

[@Alypius420]

I was really anxious and on edge and then randomly started watching this. Now I feel a lot better and much more relaxed. Thanks!!

[@christopherappleton4041]

Got recommended this video today and I’m glad. Very relaxing and just a nice easy watch. Made a not so great day a little better. Thanks.

[@lessonzlrnd]

My friend, I thank you for your commitment to yourself and your craft. The walk through is excellent and the music is just right.

[@agn728]

This is exactly the kind of content I've been looking for, I am so excited to see 60+ episodes of this to catch up on! Hopefully with the new season coming out it'll give you a reason to do some more! 🤘

[@bloggstargaming9806]

Hey mate, first time viewer here, I really enjoyed this video, I love the sped up game play and relaxing music with limited commentary and straight to the point. I have only played snowrunner in co op with friends but now I want to try hard mode! I look forward to watching the rest of your videos, thank you so much 😊

[@dane-d]

This video came up in my feed after a Snowrunner search on YT. After reading the title ya had me. I appreciate your commentary, video style and muscial taste. Thanks to you I'm now attempting this myself.

[@vhbcccuhvv8534]

Can we just appreciate the music choice? Well made video. Thanks my man ! The music and the driving was absolutely fantastic together. Also your voice is calm, heavy and soft too. Its so chill to hear it along with the view ans the song.

[@ArcherAC3]

Was looking for gold, just found diamond. What a gem of a channel! Most relaxing gameplay video I ever watched, and helped me so much on getting my bearings at hard mode. Well done, mate!

[@crokette8908]

Thank you, as someone who struggle a bit to start on hard mode his video was very instructive.

[@TowShen]

I was looking for a good hard mode lets play to watch as I play my game. amazing and incredibly well made!

[@tannerhale2954]

I hate that you’ve stopped making videos. I just started snow runners and I found your videos and they are calming and simply amazing. Please revive this channel!

[@Cerstani]

Best Snowrunner walkthrough on KZbin; it goes without saying: subscribed!

[@passiveincome2218]

I just got this my recommended list and I must say, I wish YT would have recommended it last August when it was posted. The music mixed with the narration is amazing. Got my sub, I hope to watch more.

[@colerumford8480]

What a refreshing video. Good work brotha I really enjoy your calm style of voice over and the backround music fits the game play so well I truly feel emersed.

[@MrEvanNoyes]

I was so happy finding this video, feels right up my alley. I know you haven’t uploaded in 8 months but at least I have 60 videos or so. Thank you!

[@bensaslol]

Just came across this series. Very excited to keep watching

[@LudwigBeefoven]

Very smart playing. You have several ideas that never crossed my mind. Well done.

[@roblucas6097]

Just found your videos. I enjoy the gameplay to the soothing music. Subscribed!

[@illidan155]

your music taste is so nice, so trippy, i added all of the songs to my favs ;d, thank you, what a nice new introduction to so many good songs/tracks

[@terrancehornsby4292]

Blown away how pretty this game is and the sunset mixed with the music amazing

[@mraveryf25]

This channel will inevitably blow up. Keep up the amazing work man!

[@Juanma23b]

This video literally made me feel extremely comfortable and calm, I love it. Great job!

[@OtherEdgar]

Wow, never espectad to find such great and well-made video by looking for SnowRunner hard career mode.

[@thejalderman]

This is awesome. I could watch this all day.

[@Aran2323]

Never played a game like this before. Never watched a video about a game like this before. I'm entranced. Simultaneously engaging and relaxing. I love it, really well done! Might have to buy this game.

[@notweaking5892]

The first few maps are really relaxing, definitely have some stressful times but over all it's an awesome game to while listening to music and drinking some beers

[@Hamiltron]

Loving the music choices. Suits the mood of the video perfectly. Kind of lonely and melancholy but hopeful.

[@davide30541]

how am i only being recomended this now... its amazing. relaxing, informative, entertaining...

I really like this approach, good job

What an amazing series! I hope you keep going!

[@millies1264]

Man I love this. Currently on episode 30 and want to play the game for myself now, but before I go attempting to make a song playlist, do dou happen to have a playlist of all the songs in all these episodes? It’s perfect music for this game and I wanna play it with your chosen songs! In any case, thank you for this experience🙏🙏🙏 Your choice in music here makes it euphoric. I just love it.

[@notweaking5892]

Thank you for this video, I'm just about to start my first hard mode playthrough, this video helped alot with getting a good start

Im new to Snowrunner and im very excited for this series!

[@farexlor9938]

Wonderful. The man has a plan, the skill and the music. also the fast forwarding instead of skipping content. Nice. Got yourself a sub and I'm gonna watch this. Need a break from the kosmodrom and wisconsin, uagh

[@Hexis17]

I loved how relaxing, and satisfying this is to watch, very nice job!

[@Arnostic]

I can tell I’m going to enjoy this series

[@andrewsmith1204]

Excellent video. Honestly relaxing and interesting.

[@MarkNiceyard]

Not bad! Very efficient play. And well made video production. I like it.

[@hotrolled50]

First time viewer and I really appreciate the production value you have in this video. i am running the same game type you are, especially no short cuts to better vehicles. I want to play the game as if I was a small business and jetting to Russia and bringing back a Tayga for the cost of a small trailer just seems bogus. I really like your approach here.

[@winfriedbauer2280]

I like your style, man! I played HardMode for quite a large portion of the game, and it is something else! It takes a game that can be quite unforgiving and turns it into an absolute strategic beast... The only thing I don't like about HardMode, is that it seems ones fleet of trucks is much smaller, because of how much less money one gets due to all the money you gotta spend! And I do love driving all the variety of trucks! But great Challenge! I love this game! Gives me this nostalgic feeling and joy I had playing with cars as a kid!

[@smoose1]

this video is so helpful and relaxing. found myself just watching the sped up driving haha

[@Blxz]

Just want to say this series is fantastic. I watch it late at night fullscreen so I don't get a chance to stop and comment much but it's very well made. Especially like your respect for the audience's time with regards to the speed-up sequences. Hope you keep at it all the way through the entire set of maps.

[@iSim0641]

Love the music choice and narration. Good job

Good video, you really help me at the start of the hard mode

[@galaxytraveler5779]

This game is fantastic, I am so glad I finally gave it a shot. Just wish there was a mod that allows to control the weather and timecycle. Would love to make the in-game time to progress the same as real world time.

[@1993Revhead]

I thought this was going to be a generic gamer vlog. But i was wrong! Most calming gaming youtuber I've ever come across.

[@seanmichael8202]

Dude... This made me doze off a bit. The music is absolutely beautiful. I can see many are appreciating how peaceful and relaxing this video is. Pretty cool Edit: And homeboy left us the music list in the description.... Friggin awesome 🤘

[@robjones8733]

Thanks Sean, I was wondering about the music.

[@vaidaskungys4203]

Unbelievable video! Well done

[@oddmushasmr]

This is brilliant! I know from experience that the driving bits can be a bit boring, but cutting parts out (imo) kills the flow of the video. Speeding up the video and doing voice-over is a great way around that! Plus I'm learning a lot, like swapping the sideboard bed from the GMC to the Fleetstar. No idea you could do that...

[@craigegreenwood795]

The best way to play Snowrunner. The unlock all watchtowers (and wotnot) immediately advice is bad. Thank you for this series it's very entertaining and competent. New game and sub obviously

[@murderdoggg]

Very awesome bringing off road gaming to a new level. I shall name it "Canadian GTA"

[@entitygames9751]

I love this series ❤

[@Zacht1980]

Super efficient routing. Nice work!

[@Baito009]

This is mostly how I approached hard mode as well, it was really tough at the start, only thing I did differently was also took part in multiplayer, which feels kinda cheap looking back at it now as it gained me a lot of cash, but some of my friends wanted to come help and when I went into their worlds I didn't bother to switch saves. Playing through solo hard mode all the way is a great achievement. Fuel in Yukon is crazy expensive, just a heads up, recommend running fuel carriers on the back of all your trucks and filling them up at the cheap servos before transferring maps

[@Shockwave224]

Perfect video. Thank you

[@chulopapi812]

This is my favourite video game video genre that I didn't knew I liked. Well done. Difficult challenging gameplay, music, not an obnoxious fake hyped hyper loud youtuber. 10/10 sub, like and will come again.

[@mrugod]

very rare to witness a LP'er that doesnt make me want to smash my monitor, very good style mate.

[@stover77]

Nice video! I would add that the scout fuel trailer was a good first purchase. I dragged it all around the map, getting all the watchtowers, upgrades, and tasks, never worried about fuel. Just fill it up from one of the fuel trailers for free!

[@nightstar6900]

Extreme good job , and relaxing woice + music

I love it, I have started hard mode myself and and it’s absolutely nuts. Your play through gives a new perspective on things, awesome vid your chill approach to the matter is very entertaining, great job 🤘😬🤘
