The Beginning of The End: Volume 3 Finale | Gacha Club | AU William's Tragedy |

[@ZacharyZakk]

Read the description if you feel inclined. In a few weeks, I'm going to be making an announcement video talking about the future of this channel going forward. I will also go into detail behind the making of this episode and why it's... well, short. Despite it being a finale and 16 minutes being rather small. I will answer as much as I can. So stay tuned for that and, at the very least. I hope you enjoyed. For those who have been waiting for an eternity for this episode. Thank you for sticking with me...

I'm sticking to this adventure 'til I'm a pile of bones, I love your works! 🤩

[@Undertalefire22]

Here's a question. Out of all of the characters in Williams Tragedy, which one is your favorite? If you have one, that is since you made the AU.

[@ZacharyZakk]

@@Undertalefire22 I don't exactly have a favorite from my own series. I mean, if I have to answer then the perhaps, Cassidy?

[@Undertalefire22]

@@ZacharyZakk Cool. She's my favorite from your AU as well, tho i focused on William more when I'd make videos on your AU since he's the protagonist. In my AU, my favorite is Sans. I just asked since I thought about Marvel and remembered Stan Lee's favorite is Spider-Man or Silver Sufer.

No way he's back. I was just revisiting your older vids last week! Good to see tou doing well

[@trentspears4494]

Good to have you back, Z

[@Undertalefire22]

This was awesome. I made a reaction to this and it should be uploading right about now. When it uploaded you can see it. I have to say again thanks for everything, Zachary. Good luck for the future and have an awesome day.

2:06 Chris spitting facts right there, William and Michael need to take a moment and sort their issues, because they've been on that for a while now.

Great video as always, Zachary! Hope you have a good one, and don't worry, take yours time, we'll be waiting patiently 👍👍👍

Freddy has plot armor bro took no damage and then survived lets see if he can win a 4 on one

[@CalebS-e7m]

Good call man

[@Undertalefire22]

Sup. Have you ever read or heard or "I HAVE NO MOUTH AND I MUST SCREAM"? if so, what is your opinion on it? And since Cassidy's the vengeful spirit. Well, at least used to be in this AU. How would she react to AM? Since he has similar hatred that she had. Except. Ever so slightly more.

[@daranaqelforastero319]

16:19 Nah they ain't dead, they transferred their consciousness to the “human” bodies and William or Henry probably programmed the suits to just attack head on while he chased after Vanny, that's my theory 😎👍

[@dangerdesavage1043]

Hey this was amazing and I like to make a request that the FNAF 1 and Afton family react to After hours remake by JT music

[@Undertalefire22]

If I may ask. What editing software do you use? Personally, I use Kinemaster given I make videos, and my series on my Android Tablet and Capcut seems a bit too complicated for me.

[@ZacharyZakk]

I use Davinci Resolve 19 Studio. It's not beginner friendly. So I would avoid it.

[@Undertalefire22]

@@ZacharyZakk Ah. I’m not exactly a beginner however. My series is over a year old by now and I’ve advanced a lot at this point. But given I already have issues with capcut, I doubt this will be any better. I might atleast try it once. Since I still use Capcut for things like Vs or Power Scaling edits and i created a whole FNF parody using it as well. But yeah I probably won’t be shifting to it.

[@ZacharyZakk]

@@Undertalefire22 Davinci Resolve 19 is widely considered to be the best alternate software for something like adobe premiere Which is mostly used to create VFX and stuff. I use it for all sorts of things, but it's mainly the reason I'm able to do all the cool things I've shown basically and that's like... 0.1% of what you can achieve.

[@Undertalefire22]

@@ZacharyZakk Hmm. Before I attempt, I must ask. How is the lag compared to most editing softwares? For reference, my recent episode "Newfound Responsibility." Lagged after about 20- 30 minutes of several layers and green screens with effects. For some reason, whenever I'd have small clips and stitch them together over 3 times, I could not record that on the app itself; it would literally crash each time (pathetic, I know). I also can't speed up a video for over 4×(also pathetic). And eventually for the Cassidy vs. William/Error 666 fight scene, it crashed, forcing me to upload what I had and deleting the project. I then made a new project, gave it the same name, and put in what I had just uploaded, and the lag disappeared, but I had to stitch all the music and SFX together since when I started a new project the music I used was gone and I couldn't just place the music where I already had since I forgot the time stamp, and I cut the music a few times for an interval of about 10 to 30 seconds. I made about 5 new projects before finishing the video. No, I don't have enough to pay for more storage, sadly. I ask because I tweaked a bit with Capcut and saw it has far less lag and can do things much better, so I noticed some editing software will lag less than others. For example, I could speed the video up past 4 times.

[@ZacharyZakk]

@@Undertalefire22 Storage capacity isn’t the main issue unless your projects are exceptionally large. Here are some key things to remember with editing software, whether for graphics or video. Editing is highly CPU-dependent, with the GPU playing a partial role, but most of the heavy lifting is done by your CPU. Large projects with many effects-built-in or added-demand more processing power, which often causes lag. Additionally, each effect you apply to scenes adds strain to the CPU. The more effects, the greater the load, and consequently, the more lag you may experience. In the case of DaVinci Resolve, for example, there’s a feature that allows pre-rendering effects on the timeline to reduce lag. However, rendering can still be slow, as the CPU and RAM affect the speed of rendering both projects and effects. Finally, if a fully rendered video doesn’t lag when reloaded into the editor, it’s because the software is simply reading the video file rather than processing each individual effect again. To illustrate: when I began creating A Killer Reborn, I applied many overlapping effects onto around 50 clones of Glitching Glitchtrap’s face. At that time, I had less RAM and wasn’t using Studio, which leverages the GPU for additional support if the CPU is underpowered. Playback on the timeline lagged heavily due to these constraints. However, if I reloaded that project after rendering it into a complete video, the lag on the timeline wouldn’t be an issue because the video is treated as a finished product rather than a work-in-progress with multiple effects. In short, rendered videos are far less demanding on the system than unrendered projects with active effects. DaVinci Resolve demands a lot more since it's for professional editing... It's a much bigger software then Kinemaster.

[@blaisefontenot798]

@@daranaqelforastero319 Yeah but I didn’t expect a cliffhanger.

[@daranaqelforastero319]

​@@blaisefontenot798 I honestly did 😅

[@ZacharyZakk]

@@blaisefontenot798 While many ideas for this episode didn’t come to fruition due to my own challenges, this wasn’t one of them. The ending of this volume was always meant to be a cliffhanger. The main theme was to tie up a few loose threads. Chris (the real Chris, not a recreation of his personality) has returned, seeking to comfort Michael, who still feels guilty about the past. Chris is determined to help him move forward. Meanwhile, Jeremy and Susie discuss their future, as do Charlotte and Cassidy, though with more specifics. Fritz and Gabriel also contemplate what lies ahead for them. After all these interactions, William and Glitch rediscover and finally solve the remnants of the Original Glitchtrap. William resolves to face a showdown, while Glitch prepares for something significant. And finally, Cassidy repays William. These elements were essential to the episode. I couldn’t discard them, unlike the countless drafts I had originally planned to include. This episode was intended to be 30 minutes long, but things didn’t go as expected. I’ll admit, it’s not the strongest episode. As for the future... Volume 4, at least as initially conceived, was meant to be developed later when Gacha Club 2 or a future app came out. I’m not satisfied with the current state of Gacha Club and its features; after using it for so long, it’s become a slog. I didn’t want that for Volume 4. It was meant to be shorter-about four episodes, 30-40 minutes each-but with updated visuals. I want Volume 4 to look great, not subpar. Things will take time, as always, but I promise that when (or if) I do create the first episode of Volume 4, I will give it my best effort.

​@@ZacharyZakk noice! We'll be on the watch! As always amazing work, Zachary! You're the freaking GOAT!

[@Undertalefire22]

Here's a question I thought of. I honestly can't believe it took me this long to realize this, but. Most of your videos before have been 1080p. Now it's 1440p. Is there any reason you did this, or is it just a change based on a desire to improve quality? Given what you've said in your video after this.

[@ZacharyZakk]

Yeah, I do everything at 2k now. So, as a byproduct of that. I've upped the quality to allow for 2k.

[@Undertalefire22]

@@ZacharyZakk I see. Kinda fits. Also, as you have seen in my doodle of Williams!Tragedy!William, like I said, I am trying to learn how to draw. For me. It's because I kind of wanna leave the Gacha community. I said before I was gonna leave it, or at least the FNAF side had I not found your channel. It's less of any vendetta towards the good people in the community, like you or many others. But more towards how they are treated. In real life, i get teased a bit due to it. Gacha doesn't necessarily have the greatest reputation, I think you know this. But that essentially paints anyone who does Gacha to a non-Gacha user. Or someone who isn't in the community. They legit think I make inappropriate content and don't even bother watching the videos to see themselves. So I am learning how to draw so I can animate the rest of the series, similar to Undertale AU series's like Under!Verse. That being said. If I do get to that point and *do* , become an animator. Would you mind if I remade some episodes of yours but as animated? I'd credit you as always, and it'll be similar to some reanimations you see of Glitchtale. Also, that time will be a *long* time from now, assuming i do wind up an animator. So it probably won't be for a while.

[@ZacharyZakk]

​@@Undertalefire22 That's a good goal, I wish you the best. Although, I would like to say something inspiring. There's actually a person who does that better then what I could have said. I do believe, that Pewdiepie's video titled "I Drew Every Day for 365 Days..... *it was painful*" There's actually another video before this one. Which is the first update in his journey to draw. What he goes into in that video. Will speak volumes about what you're journey in drawing can be. Honestly, I could use a little of that advice in my own way (not about drawing, but just about the passion of doing something).
