Thoughts after watching The Remarkable Life of Ibelin Documentary

[@daddy9267]

Story touched me, I cried all the way through the documentary. RIP Ibelin, This story has changed the me I was.

[@VibeGuyAndy]

It's certainly brought me to change my daily habits and bring to the forefront an awareness of how I walk through life. Thank you for listenin🙏🏻🪈✨

[@FreakyGremlinDK]

He was a good guy and a good friend. I had the joy to know him as I was in the same guild as him and share many great moments and adventures and talks together. If he know how much his short lived story would have impacted people world wide, he would probably have thought it unnecessary and even silly. He was that humble of a guy.

[@VibeGuyAndy]

@@FreakyGremlinDK oh wow! Thank you for sharing this. It’s truly a story of the century. I believe it’s one that’s very important for people to hear. Peace and love 🙏🏻✨

[@InnomineWow]

I'm sorry for your loss. I'm honored to know his story.

[@BalloonInTheBalloon]

This was a fantastic documentary, a touching humanistic film.

[@roguesgallery4228]

Just watched it and I had no idea just how hard it would hit me. IBELIN your story, your life will touch millions.

[@VibeGuyAndy]

@@roguesgallery4228 same here! My sister recommended it and I hesitated at first but then something told me to watch it. It brought up a lot of reflection for me. Thank you for listening and commenting🙏🏻✨

[@keviiino]

as a father with young children, just watch this movie

[@AuroraRosewing]

I loved the documentary - his story has been known in Norway for many years, he touched the whole nation. ❤

[@VibeGuyAndy]

While watching I actually recalled hearing about him hears ago helping researchers build the gaming input system he used. I’m elated his story is able to be told in this way. Such an amazing film. Thank you for listening and commenting. Peace and love 🙏🏻✨🌅

[@RealTrumpite]

He didn't just touch the whole nation.He touched the whole world.

@@RealTrumpite Truly. I really hope this film wins an award!

@@Miamia_01 Oh that's wonderful to hear! I hope it is recognize here in the US as well.

Thank you for sharing, and I think you are right on the mind - the world is a better place when we tell others how much they means to us, that they make an impact in our lives. I also think we are making more of an impact in the lives of people than we are aware of. - Nomine/Starlight.

[@VibeGuyAndy]

Of course, and thank you for listening. Above all things, people remember how we made them feel. Peace and love🙏🏼

[@RadarRider226]

I just watched it. Not only a moving story, but it brought back so many wonderful memories of friendships that I made in WoW back in the day. What I wouldn’t give to be able to reconnect with them again. We used to have so much fun together! I tried playing WoW again recently, but how people interact with each other has completely changed. Almost every guild that I would join required that you communicate through Discord or something of the like. Since those days, I’ve lost my hearing and now wear bilateral cochlear implants. It’s very difficult for me to effectively communicate through voice chat. A lot of guilds won’t even let you raid if you’re not on voice chat. WoW can be a lonely world without social interaction. 😢

[@VibeGuyAndy]

The dynamic of the Internet has certainly changed as a whole. I experienced a similar phenomenon playing Halo2 back in the day. So much of our technology has gone so far beyond analog that it’s just not tangible anymore. The community aspect becomes lost in the weeds of it all. There’s still good to find but we gotta look for it. I think eventually people will turn back to just meeting up with people in our material world. I wonder if you could contact those people you used to play with and maybe meet up with them in real life. Wouldn’t that be wonderful. Thank you for listening and commenting. Peace and love 🙏🏻✨🌅

[@chaoticrager1722]

The documentary was outstanding!! I think I cried from the moment he was born to when he died. Remarkable person indeed. RIP Mats/ Ibelin

[@VibeGuyAndy]

Yes, probably the last half I kept tearing up. And the moment I saw the girl he loved carrying his casket, I almost lost it😭 Thank you for listening and commenting. Peace and love 🙏🏻✨🌅

[@scajdmasse853]

You are a child of god, I’m proud to know you everyday !

[@kevinheise7]

I'm gonna sit down with my wife and watch it tonight. Our 6 year old son has autism. I feel like he's more sane than we are, yet our society is so hyper individualistic. It's hard. Thank you for keeping it real, friend✌️

[@VibeGuyAndy]

I hope that through this film you and your family may reflect and find peace, understanding, and awareness. It's truly a documentary of the decade. Thank you for listening and commenting. Peace and love to you and your family🙏🏼✨😊

[@mr.pledplool272]

I felt like the story was so touching/inspiring and it really does make me reconsider some aspects of my life. Totally resonate with what you are saying here. And the crazy part is: here is Mats having an even larger impact on so many people around the world watching this documentary. RIP

[@VibeGuyAndy]

It brought forth much reflection for me as well. I hope that his message will make an impact across the world. Thank you for commenting. Peace and love🙏🏻🪈✨

[@TheRealRetrokai]

I watched it now with my wife (we met on WoW somwhere around 2010 cata release) and we just cryed our eyes out, because a game we both love and share good memories for made us remember our own son who passed away 2023. World of Warcraft and Its People are remarkable un-swappable. He died too young, but he certainly in this documentary and in real life, his persona was the best his family and his guild could ever recieve. Greetings

[@VibeGuyAndy]

The energy of our loved ones is always with us, eternally. I hope watching the movie brought you and your wife some solace. Peace and love to you both🙏🏼

[@RaiKobert-s4w]

Andrew, you posting this video is a part of bringing that mindset forth. Thru all doubt and hesitation, i want you to know that you are important. Thanks Andrew, its a show of charachter.

[@VibeGuyAndy]

Thank you, I'm grateful for your words!🙇🏻‍♂️ Peace and love🙏🏻🪈✨

[@iampriscillamusic]

I watched the documentary and CRIED. I am not a gamer and yet, I was profoundly impacted. He made a difference and cared deeply for others. There is one part of the film towards the end where he expresses the fear that his life has not mattered and his friend in the game breaks down all the ways he has made a difference… when I tell you, I sobbed bc I think there are a lot of people who sometimes feel this way. And yet we may not even realize the impact we are making and it starts and ends with being a part of a meaningful community. And whether you find that community in person or online, we can make a difference by being kind. So simple but profound. The film has stayed with me. Makes me want to be a better. ❤

[@VibeGuyAndy]

That's also why I wanted to encourage people to watch it cause it isn't just about gaming. It's a film that will hit home for anyone. Thank you for listening and commenting🙏🏻🪈✨

[@lindamcclain5569]

It was an amazing documentary, and I felt as impacted as you are right now. I play wow, and the feelings I had from this remarkable young man, just hit me so strong. My whole other world was open and alive, and his story was inspirational. I wish we were all more aware of each other and cared more about each other. The world right now is upside down, I just want to hug everyone in it and make it right again like Ibelin. Fly free Mat, you will be in Azeroth forever.

[@VibeGuyAndy]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings. I believe, especially with stories like Ibelin’s, that humanity will right the course and we will come to a time of great peace again. Peace and love 😂✨🌅

@@tjiron968 yeah it got me tearing up through at least half of it. I almost lost it when I realized near the end that one of the people carrying his coffin was the girl he cared for.

[@mayragatica2275]

I just watched this documentary and there are many life lessons to be learned but more importantly it’s to take the time to reflect within our souls and family ❤. Very sad story but also inspiring.

[@VibeGuyAndy]

It's one that brings up much reflection for sure. Taking time to look inward is imperative during our time here on Earth. Thank you for listening and for commenting. Peace and love 🙏🏼

[@BigBeeBeeSting]

Mats was such a wise young man and unafraid to reach out to others through the anonymity of the game. It is a very moving observation of humanity and what is possible if we let it.

[@VibeGuyAndy]

@@BigBeeBeeSting Yes, the advice he provided was so wise for his age. So loving and caring. It shows how deep a connection can form when we take time to slow down and truly listen to one another. Thank you for listening and commenting. Peace and love to you 🙏🏻

I have taken that example from Ibelin ever since he died in 2014. Be the best person you can be for others, even if they sometimes hurt you, they might need you more than they know. Tah

As the saying goes, it is those who hurt others who need the most kindness and love. We will come to a great time of peace through fighting anger and hate with love and peace and respect. Thank you for listening and commenting. Peace and love 🙏🏻✨

Back in the day, I knew the people of Starlight. My guild, Stormwind Academy, was allied with them, to do content both out guilds were too small to tackle on our own, so yes, I have played with Ibelin, though I didn't get to know him very well. Sadly I contracted a pain condition, which has left me handicapped. I remember my first session at the Pain Clinic I had a custom Stormwind Academy tshirt on. My therapist asked me about it, and I thought "Oh no, now I have to hear about being a gamer". But I explained how I found friends and opportunities online, when I could barely walk, and all the other fantastic things the documentary hightlights. Her reply: "Interesting. You're instinctively tried to do, what I am about to teach you". Gaming can be very healthy for you and there are real friends to be found too.

[@EyebrowsGaming]

What was your name back in the day? I remember Stormwind Academy being an elusive but highly respected guild, with the likes of Richeron and Elizabetha being your most famous faces. Regards, Umbert Ironshield of the Argent Battalion

Thanks for the review and for sharing this on KZbin. Blessings
