Talking About Our Flaws | Eco #2

[@oliviareyes7838]

Ross talking about his self confidence issues and trott talking about how he doesn't think he's funny made me kinda sad :( You boiks are wonderful!!

[@MissFagina]

Olivia Reyes *Hugs*

[@lewis6590]

The saddest part is that they're kinda right about their flaws. But that's just life I guess, everyone has flaws. It's interesting that to them it's a giant flaw, but to us it's like 'oh I guess that's true sometimes but I never noticed it really'. We could all take a lesson from that.

[@oliviareyes7838]

LewieBot dude that's such a good point. Like, just because something feels like a big deal to us, it's really not apparent to anyone else; a good lesson for us all to stress a little less!

[@michaelvincentpratt]

My #1 flaw is that I want this series-able.

[@zippo6953]

Michael Pratt i saw u on the previous eco video saying series-able do you need help or are u just really excited

[@michaelvincentpratt]

As much as I love GTA and TTT having a new recurring series would be lovely

[@angusdonaldsmith9808]

Michael Pratt the GTA is hardly a series and the TTT just simply isn't a series but I agree something would be nice not this tho, Maybe they could try colony survival?

[@lightningshark67]

I don't think they would fit colony survival. However, I think something like this would really benefit the channel. I really miss having a series, that progresses, with these guys.

[@nakenmil]

I'm pretty sure Smiffy has PTSD from having to play minecraft years after he got tired of it.

[@93Flowrider]

or allergy, from years of living in an oversaturated environment.

[@MrJordanFace]

Enthused Norseman i

[@Liamneedham29]

I wanna see a ross solo stream on some really high octane or tense game (though not horror, i wont watch that), and I dont care if hes good at it or not. Ideally something with quickish rounds, so that he can interact with chat between the activity, therefore giving him regular conversation topics. I think he worries too much, he has a natural charisma that an active audience and a game with lots of energy would facilitate.

[@shotmeonsightplease]

And to be honest, if you don't feel that you can stream because you are bad at games, then focus on something else while streaming. Bad at game, but great at interacting with viewers/chat? That appeals to a lot of people! Another thing that will attract people is helping you figure out a game. Admit you are bad and ask people for help in improving, it will be a great stream for everyone. You won't know if you don't try however. I miss the informal solo-streams they used to have from time to time :(

[@Guffy1990]

SuperHot VR, Hotline Miami, Doom maybe?

[@ryanphillips4123]

I'd love a Ross solo stream

[@mcsquizzy440]

I don't know, Ross solo horror streams would be pants shittingly hilarious

[@Liamneedham29]

Tyler Fleck True, but Im a massive pu55y. Dead by Daylight is alright, but I wouldnt watch any jump scare manias or really vivid-gory horror games.

[@tteckk5787]

I saw a different side of Hatfilms today It felt less like you putting on a show to keep people entertained and more real. it was more interesting than funny (But both present) and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[@mitchellspencer1617]

i totally agree, its nice to see both sides of hatfilms once in a while

[@Cheesepuff8]

I like hat films partly cause they always seem more real, even wen they're joking around and saying weird stuff

[@Echricter]

You guys are great, you're so entertaining and charming that i literally just sit and listen to playlists of you guys for hours just to offset boredom, you've gotten me through so many bad days and made good ones even better. there's no set of people in the world like you three and the entertainment you bring. I go through so many KZbin channels but without fail I always come back to this one and have done since the day i started watching. So for the all comments on flaws remember your still some of the best people out there on just the entertainment you produce, let alone the worth of each of you as people. Thanks for all the amazing content guys

[@theaveragegatsbyy]

Echricter PREACH!

[@jaycorb4555]

Echricter I couldn't agree more

[@furiousbadgergaming3047]

You literally summed up my YT experience

[@kiwibird8441]

FuriousBadgerGaming same

[@MegaCookiegal]

Well said, it's always these guys I come back to, like home

[@ArlanKels]

My flaw is laziness. I know I need to get something done, but I always put it off and I know I can do more and make my life better, but..y'know...that's just too much work. I'm k just floating here like a blob on an ocean.

[@calebchaplin5456]

Yeah... Same here...

[@Otaku157]

Eco has never been so emotionally deep when I played it, must be a new feature.

[@jamesmerrett2841]

My number 1 floor is made of a nice oak wood with a matt finish 😊

[@SirNightmareFuel]

_Daaaamn,_ that's a nice floor.

[@jamesmerrett2841]

Whos That Guy? Thanks :) I try not to tell everyone about it

[@SirNightmareFuel]

James Merrett Understandable, its not nice to make people jealous all the time.

[@Vrykion15]

Rosses windows troubles are so entertaining

[@kelseyfish9661]

I think hat films biggest flaw is that they are just too spectacularly amazing, and my biggest flaw is my tendency of poisoning every person I meet with the sheer amount of negativity that flows my personality like the strongest BO you've ever smelled. Great stuff boys! Love the bants!

[@jackabea9534]

It was really nice to hear about your guys flaws as it reminds me you are real down to earth people

[@gregorywhatley9659]

14:28 this got really sad, the music too was really sombre. I feel like we might be part of the reason why Ross says one of his main flaws is self confidence. Years of people in the comments saying "WOW Ross sucks so much at these games" I'm glad I've learnt with age to appreciate these guys not for the gameplay but the commentary. That's what I idolise about these lads, how well they mesh together and work off of eachother. So many years and they still have so much to talk about You boys are my favourite channel on youtube, and your charisma is something I personally aspire to achieve some day

[@grevok]

Wow yeah, that's certainly something to think about. These guys are my idols too

[@VestinVestin]

I remember one stream where he thanked people for the appreciation they're expressed... because he took the time to rebind some useful function to a handy hotkey. Then he put it in perspective by saying "People usually tell me to kill myself because of how bad I am at video games, so I'll take compliments where I can". It was heartbreaking.

[@gregorywhatley9659]

Poor Ross, he's such a lovely guy. Just plays for fun

[@KobanWanko]

Please continue this series. Also, seeing a more realistic side to all of you kinda humanizes the watching experience; it helps erase the gap between you three as comedians and us understanding your real selves. I'd like to think I speak for everyone when I say, the jokes and jabs are fun and all, but being able to see this more vulnerable side to all of you was definitely a welcomed change of pace.

[@awesomeaartvark]

Overthinking. Which kinda mixes with a low self-confidence. I can't help but think about all the possibilities and outcomes, good or bad, of a situation or decision, and sometimes it just leads to me getting nothing done because I can't decide what I think the best decision is, so I procrastinate or try not to think about it. Just writing this comment, or most comments, really, takes way too long because I don't know what to say or how to phrase it right. It was interesting to hear you all genuinely talk about what you consider your flaws. Obviously, I love the banter and jokes (puns especially, hehe) but the fact that you guys keep it real and stay genuine is why I love ya and keep coming back! But anyways, you guys should totally do a bake-off, I love watching you all cook!

[@chriscrayfish3395]

I actively wish this series to continue... Also my flaw is my overwhelming lust for Chris Trout...

[@yigit726]

Chris Crayfish don't worry buddy, I have yet to meet a person who doesn't have that flaw

[@monberg1000]

I think this game looks really interesting, and I honestly really want to see you guys trying to save the planet, whatever it takes, or die trying. And the one flaws I have with you guys, is that you worry to much about what other thinks of you. XD You might not be the biggest on KZbin, but that is okay. :) What really matters is that you are making so many people happy by just being yourself, and sharing that with us. That is why I think you are awesome, and no matter what you do, I am grateful to you for letting me be a part of that.

[@atomfpv1907]

Couldn't care less about the game but the banter was top notch. So its good you can play and talk about more than just the game but It will be alt tabbed.

[@georgebowyer5170]

AtomFPV yeah you don't come to hatfilms for the games it's all about the hatchat

[@sirBrouwer]

I come for the faptastic faces.

[@Valokiloren]

>come to the faptastic faces Fixed that for you, mate =D

[@ArdanTheHalfDragon]

Valokiloren “come to the faptastic *feces”

[@emmadunn7574]

Trott, it's so deeply encouraging, as a naturally quiet person who's eternally trying to come up with something to say, to hear that someone as truly funny and creative as you struggles in the same way

[@marmoolo]

I was happy seeing the #2 of this game, and one of my flaws is probably that I have trouble understanding subtle social cues.

[@BlindmansJesus]

Wish you trio of Charities would come back and play more of this.

[@braaaaaains]

ECO: INTROSPECTIVE BOIS EDITION

[@grizzlymusicify]

Trott, you're a very funny person. You don't have to be constantly trying to impress or interest people, the occasional moment of humorous brilliance from you always makes me smile.

[@joeldutton4911]

You guys may think you’re boring to listen to but I could sit for hours and watch your videos without getting bored. Thank you for always making my day better.

[@Robinski000]

it's really grounding to hear you boys talking about your flaws so openly, i think one of my big ones is that i don't give people enough of a chance to become close to me

[@The_Superdwarf]

You guys are smart, funny and I believe I’m not alone in thinking that you’re basically the coolest people alive. Also, as a trio, you completely make up for each others ”flaws”. You seem to constantly have a good time, and sure, it could just be a persona, but then you’re Damn good actors.

[@Fenrir1]

I'm a perfectionist when it comes to myself and subconsciously set expectations (on myself, not other people) that are literally unattainable and end up not even trying because I know I can't meet those expectations. I'm never good enough, so I choose to lose instead.

[@nihilsubsolenovum2338]

This, a million times this. Why try when my own goals are impossible.

[@davidwynter5914]

Creased, editing this must have been hilarious and deeply saddening at the same time! Imagining Craig just walking through and giving you all a little hug

[@davidwynter5914]

Also my greatest weakness is my alluring but deceiving butt hole. Looks tight and puckered one moment but as soon as I relax it's as loose and as the stretched and chewed sleeves of an anxious primary schoolers jumper.

[@RichardCox0]

I love your voice a lot trott, the fact that you speak more calmly than the others is in no way a bad thing, and you often don't get to finish your stories because you get interrupted.

[@bishopau1228]

This video is why you guys are my favorite people. You self-aware, humble and switched on yet hilarious bastards are the best.

[@pete8991]

I would like to see more of this please

[@MissFagina]

I'm the same as Trott. I get hung up on criticism. I'm extremely defensive. Especially when I've spent so much time on something. It's not like we've not make an effort.

[@martinhansen1829]

Flutterby x made* (constructive criticism) 😅 Sorry man.. I couldn't help myself

[@MissFagina]

Martin Hansen hahaha. I hate it when other people feel it! These guys must get so fed up of people who say "Do it this way!". It's their choice how they play games. It's why people subscribe to them!

[@jamesfyffe6193]

I find you very interesting and funny Trott, don't worry about it :)

[@lewis6590]

TheNativeNadd I think he has actually gotten funnier. Trott has his own deadpan style of humor that's grown on me a lot

[@sebastianschannel5638]

I got lots of my sixth form friends to watch Hat Films because of you Ross. You humour is just perfect for me, and now then too. You three have been like close friends that I've never even met but can always rely on. It's a strange coincidence that I was thinking to myself in the shower about how much I appreciate the Yogscast and Hatfilms. Lewis is amazing, so is Turps and Sjin and of course you guys! My personal favourites, anyhow, keep on doing what you're doing. While we still can enjoy it!

[@yutwob]

Your flaws are what define you and your character. I watch Hat Films because each of you three have uniquely entertaining and endearing characters that mesh well with each other. So, in a way, those flaws you're self-conscious of are what makes you special to so many of us loyal viewers.

[@benhamer4139]

7:10 I was dying, the editing was the icing in the cake xD

[@EctoMorpheus]

Just wanted to say that I don't care at all what you're playing, as long as you talk a lot and there's not a lot of random screaming in it. The latter is because I usually watch your videos early in the morning or while in bed, they help me to either start the day or to relax at the end of the day. I felt this video was quite personal and emotional, with the topic coming up out of nowhere. That's exactly why I started watching your videos years ago and why I still do: you guys interact together really well, always have something to talk about and can bring up literally any topic, be it serious or complete banter. I'm not the kind of guy to listen to a podcast because I have to look at something, but your videos perfectly fill in that spot for me. Keep doing what you're doing, as long as you can be yourselves! Truly the best channel on KZbin. I don't care what kind of games you play and whether you're good at them, I never came for the games. If the game is actually interesting to watch (such as trailblazers), that's just a great bonus!

[@ai2802]

Just going off from what Trott said about happiness and work, I once received an incredible piece of advice from a very talented director, his exact words were, "Does the work please you?" What he meant by this was simple, say you spent a few days creating a painting, you finish and look at it. Does what you see really make you happy or content? Does it satisfy you? If it doesn't try again, but if it does, if the work pleases you, then it no longer matters what others think of it. Some may find your painting terrible, some may find it ugly, but if you are truly are pleased with it, then it doesn't matter, you've made yourself happy and in this world, being able to be proud of your work can be a difficult thing to do. Does the work please you? Be honest with yourself but be proud of what you can do.

[@chumbuck7872]

I actively wish for this to continue.

[@shynarcissist]

I really love you boys. The fact that you guys got real with us in this video and how quickly you reassured each other that their flaws were not as troubling as you thought was so sweet ♥️

[@missunderstoodmaniac]

I love you guys and your flaws

[@Deoeckle]

So hungry for a series from Hat Films and this one seems pretty good. As a bonus it has a well defined ending with either a meteor smashing everything or the trio surviving.

[@ParadiseKuna]

your flaws are what makes you human, and you lads are some of the best human beings out there

[@Geo-os6bo]

Definitely continue this!! Think it's great for you guys, always love the chat whatever it is

[@Pendarin_]

Continue to do what you lads do, you're my favorite trio and make my days off filled with hysterical laughter that gets me through the next shift

[@st.eldritch7121]

I actively wish to see this continue

[@LaconicBeats]

Doubt is natural but you guys bring so much joy and inspiration to many of your fans myself included. Telling you not to feel the way you say you feel about yourself is never going to help because I share the same flaws all three of you said you had and I understand. Stay positive (not HIV) and remember when you're having existential crises that you have helped the lives of many a lost soul. Farewell from Australia.

[@djxcon980]

Definitely more of this! The random builder/explorer shenanigans you boiks get up to is epic.

[@RHSide]

Liking not so much for eco but for the open and honest chit chat in and amongst the usual. Means a lot to hear you guys talk about stuff like this and normalises it. We all feel this way sometimes, dosent mean it’s accurate but we’re allowed to feel it! Thanks boiks!

[@kevingarnett1255]

I can't express how much I want this to be a whole series

[@Beletang]

you guys definitely need to create a series out of this. its been a fantastic two episodes so far! lots of laughs.

[@connerr8364]

I love the realism and philosophical talks you guys have. When you aren't dicking and joking around, that is. Love that too. You guys are great.

[@TheXxkloexx]

Hatfilms: where every video becomes a mini podcast at one point be it political, ethical or sexual

[@chrism45]

This is kinda wholesome. Also Smith never said he does anything to the kids he just snatches them.

[@samjones3167]

Guys you are amazing actually the best channel on KZbin by far not even joking

[@MiotaLee]

I'd love to see you continue the show, and because of the timer on the game you know it won't go on forever and leave you bored of the game.

[@gregorywhatley9659]

Smith, you don't have to go to the gym to get more in shape. I've never been to a gym, but in the space of a year my physique has improved massively, just from things like going out for a cycle every other day, and doing weight lifting with dumbells in my room. And the more you do it, the more you'll want to. It's moved from 3 times a week doing light weights, to that and once a week cycling, to 3 times a week cycling 8k, to cycling 10k every day (although the increased cost of bike maintenance is a bitch)

[@15thTimeLord]

Awww Trott, I'd say you make me laugh more than Turps and make me feel like I need to cool it down in my social interactions.

[@Incentiv]

My worst floor is probably in the downstairs bathroom. We ripped up the old carpet but never got around to covering up the ugly wood underneath.

[@DZIRalexjimbo24]

This is my favourite hat films gameplay in a while (besides ttt stuff) really hope it continues

[@glich86]

I don't like a lot of videos, but this is straight trials/podcast stuff. Beautiful.

[@kyarren1709]

I actively wish to see this continue. As a series.

[@MrJordanFace]

My worst floor is probably the landing stairway, the carpet is frayed and the floorboards creak. However, my best floor is probably my kitchen floor because that is tiled and easy to clean after I’ve spilt or dropped something. Hope this helps reach the quota!

[@Xaint900]

Would love more of this, it's got the classic hatfilms 'talk absolute bollocks for 20 minutes' feel to it that I love (genuinely)

[@nurgleface]

I think my main flaw is that I am constantly feeling 2 opposing things about most things, it's really weird how I can be super enthusiastic about something while simultaneously despising it. It makes me really indecisive, seemingly apathetic at times and makes it hard to motivate myself or feel properly happy or calm about stuff.

[@DatScrubBoik]

Hat films, you guys moved into a new level of real here and it was fantastic! Like always you guys are the best.

[@hamishwoodland7424]

This was incredibly powerful guys, no joke. We love your work.

[@itachiato]

I actually find Trott very funny in vlogs. I find that I have a self-confidence issue like Ross. I like how this turned into therapy. It's very endearing.

[@DHayes-V94]

My flaw: ridiculous levels of anxiety, I once became convinced my dog only pretended to like me! This is a dog who sleeps on my old jumper and becomes melancholic while I'm at college for the week

[@guppo26]

Trott, I legit consider you the main comedic source during most of the vlogs. Just the dead-pan jokes and silly narratives you start usually get a good chuckle out of me. Just know that in the end, everyone that thinks you are funny is going to be dead alongside you, so it's all pointless anyway. But more Eco will put that thought off for a while!

[@Rugby16Zg]

Please actively continue this series :D My flaw is procrastinating with your videos instead of actually doing something! And I know I am not alone in this.

[@mreffgee7555]

MOAR! Man... the podcast chatter is so good. It's like old MC vids but without the hatred of MC.

[@luis.monteiro]

I actively want this to continue! I love you 3. (Trott you are funny as heck) And, my biggest flaw is I see myself making the wrong decision and I still go through with it. I am too good at fooling myself, if that makes any sense to anyone.

[@rasmusazu]

I really want this to be a series, I need it in my life, also my flaw is that i want this series to happen so badly that I'm currently watching through your windows making sure you dont stop playing Eco.. EVER AGAIN! ... Trott, stop moving out of the way of my laser dot, I promise I wont shoot.

[@IndieGamingVault]

Here's a like for the editing.. making their faces zip in and out of the screen so much must've taken so much effort!

[@patrickmellor4704]

A lot of these flaws I don't see these coming out, you guys are amazing which is why we watch you

[@Naecreptis]

I actively would like to see this continue... You guys seem to be enjoyin' it, i certainly am. i think y'all would have to make a bomb shelter-esque, mine like bunker to survive the meteor, its just gonna crush everything on the surface when it hits, no? Y'all feel like you are in your element when ya play crafting, survival games like this, it just feels right... Minecraft, Rust, those sort of games you play are when i love you guys. As for my biggest flaw... i procrastinate, but i'll talk 'bout that at some other time... as for your flaws... no need to mention them, your flaws are what make y'all so watchable and interestin', love ya guys

[@drmjh]

You guys are the only KZbinrs I consistently watch, keep up the good work!

[@projectM1K3]

Smith and Ross make a point about popular culture with movies such as American Pie. Even though they're wildly inaccurate, they're entertaining and give you enough insight into what's "normal" to another perspective. It's engaging to think about those differences and similarities! And I think that's why I've stayed subscribed for so long. Someone in the comments mentioned you three are charming and I agree. Games like this seem to bring out the banter that I subscribed for all those Skylands episodes ago, all those is that Ross or Smith talking moments ago. Keep it up, Hatfilms!

[@DrPacman]

this video was so good you made someone who is bipolar think about their faults. thank you hat films

[@MuzzaiaH]

Loving these lads keep it up, you guys seem really chill and natural in it and i love that and hope it means you're actually really enjoying it big love to all of you xoxo

[@vech2514]

Greatest personal flaw... I'm still watching this channel!!! Keep these vids coming boiks

[@morrmachbamedia]

feckin series boys. my flaw is that I can't stop watching your videos and then when there isn't enough I cry!!

[@Hathhe]

You should really make this a series. I miss watching your longe lived chronological series. GTA and Trials are fine as vlogs but the gameplay has really done its part for like..a couple of years ago. Would be nice to have a new series to look forward to that actually progresses towards something.

[@3leg3gancer]

I want this to continue. My flaw is that I am too curious about hearing of other people's flaws

[@jasmineros-davison8793]

this is great stuff. honestly it was kind of great listening to you guys have a real deep chat. I tend to get defensive in the same way as trott tbh i always have to remove myself from it and come back.

[@PageAaron]

The episode took a amssive turn and become a therapy

[@SegginsProductions]

I honestly don't know what they're doing in this game, but the banter is great!

[@trashboatdumpsterfire]

i like trott's voice honestly. its super mellow and very chill. i also have to admit this episode was heavy and made me have an existential crisis myself but ayy that happens every day anyway lmao. also to get even more heavy, because why not keep with that theme, you hat boiks are the reason im still alive today. cheesy, cliche, whatever, i know but 2016 and 2017 were hard years for me mentally and 2018 isn't fairing any better so far but at least i have you three fucks to look forward to watching on youtube before the inevitable demise we all face. oops this got long lmao. sorry about that.

[@itsweirzy]

This would be a great series! You lads could make your own challenges to it, how fast can deplete the world of resources or try a vegetarian run. I'd watch the hell out of that.

[@bshaw8175]

I quite enjoy this, my flaw would be i'm super quick in to thinking that people hate me and that their is something wrong with me

[@arthassblindfollower9072]

If you just played this over and over again, I would be so satisfied

[@atarirob]

"Mary's too busy trying to escape the spectre of her own death" Smith pls it's too early to be late this loudly

[@Valokiloren]

Hmm... biggest flaw. Definitely bits of everything, though I'll go with my "main flaw", which is that I do tend to be far too self-depricating. At one time I used to give up my free time to help others out when I desperately needed said time to help myself; and I often just make myself out to be an awful person by over-emphasising my own issues, even if they are incredibly minor. Still, that's an issue I share with quite a lot of other people - the only difference is how openly self-critical I tend to be.

[@DigitalFumbles]

If you guys end up continuing this I believe you can look for specific resources on the map.

[@geeyeahyeah]

I'd love to see the progression of your little town

[@OgreDLink]

14:00 things to think about right before bed by trott

[@thefire226]

I would love more of this i like seeing you guys play this more than others as a group.

[@hawkerz7882]

Can't wait to see more from this series, so fun to watch

[@caldx5067]

Flaws is something i think i'm made of so won't bother of it. Guys just keep up the good work - and would like to keep seen this game as you play. Love
