[@digitaldeathsquid3448]

After watching this stunning re-make, Which didn't look at all half-baked I now must concede, "A good job indeed, So have all the cookies and cake!"

[@omnicowdemon]

Digital Deathsquid You win the internet. 😆

[@GrantTheHierophant]

Revisiting this made me smile, the animation almost completely matches the theme of Zero Punctuation, for example at the end when he says "Two Stars" and the other three fall off to let the game hang. I personally thought that would be something Croshaw would do if he animated his reviews. Great job, can't sing your praise enough!

[@Pyrocynical]

Gotta say, this is amazing maybe even better than the actual thing :)

[@burgers4alvn393]

huh, hi dude! must of made this comment before you got famous lol how does it feel coming back to this Time Capsule of a comment?

[@okokayred]

WHY IS PYRO HERE

[@burgers4alvn393]

@@okokayred because he liked the video?

[@tchitchouan]

yo pyro

[@heartache5742]

niall why

[@SamuraiTex84]

Extremely well done animation. Very smooth and keeps up with Yahtzee beautifully. Hope we can see more in the future.

[@khanhbui739]

Whoa, you took the words right outa my mouth.

[@supmatto16]

Why don't you do more

[@JonNewsh]

I know these are basically a decade old at this point but my God you’re so talented! Please consider to make a few more, they add so much to the content it’s astounding!

[@MysteryEzekude]

Bravo! Oh, bravo, good sir! You did an excellent job making this animated adaptation as smooth, lively and accurate to its still-image counterpart as possible! I love how you added a few of your own elements and jokes such as B.J. travelling through a Warp Pipe and being guided through an empty side-scrolling beat-em-up landscape. I'm sure Yahtzee would be proud of this!

[@KDanielsS]

I'm proud of you fan said Yahtzee never (except once)

[@daltonbecker4494]

KDanielsS Dude you gotta make more of these! I recommend the episode where he reviewed Black Knight Sword & Hotline Miami.

[@97Multiphantom]

KDanielsS Will you ever make another one of these?

[@KDanielsS]

97Multiphantom I don't know. I've been going through so many new projects. I've made attempts to try a new Zero Punctuation animation but all of those kinda dwindled.

[@97Multiphantom]

KDanielsS Ok, even if you dont, these two you made are awesome

[@AbbiXIII]

Please do keep doing these Fan remakes of zero punctuation. They add so much more life to the reviews

[@kourii]

I clicked this thinking it was a bold-faced theft of the original video, but it turned out to be a fan video, and a nice one at that. Well done! (also blah blah elements of harmony brohoof /) )

[@robyoung703]

Very impressed! The art is thoughtful and well animated. The visuals also show a great sense of humor and a firm understanding of the source material.

[@ItsRetroblaster]

You need to contact yahtzee and get you a job at the escapist mate this is amazing you have earned my respect

[@TheMr12310]

I watch this for the first time, I see the elements of harmony and then I must check the comments section to see who else saw them.

[@KDanielsS]

Probably a very long list

[@importedloser]

You've done a tremendous job, I really love the animations and I can see why it took you a long time. Thing is, I've watched Yahtzee religiously since 2013 and I honestly think that most of the humour of the cartoons come from it's abruptness. In a way it kind of symbolises his abrasive and condescending tone, and I think that making all of the animations smooth makes it slightly less funny. But that's just my opinion, fantastic animating job.

[@AgonyofCrimson]

+The Elegant Penguin i agree.

[@MagpieDynamics]

I just realized that the crystals on the "bangle with a mystical angle" are the elements of harmony from My Little Pony. Please don't hate me.

[@chaosmilk2316]

"dont hate, love and tolerate!"

[@MagpieDynamics]

Heide Knight No thank you.

[@cameronmackinnon5923]

Heide Knight Quite the towering monument of maturity, you are

[@Mrtrollfaceization]

Cameron MacKinnon Sorry, it was meant to be a joke. That's why it was over exagerated.

[@jerrycan1756]

epicsauceness100 Everyone who's annoyed about has to admit that they know about a semi-obscure secondary plot element in a show that they pretend to hate. It's a law now.

[@xiphosura413]

This is actually really bloody good, it's like if the video was taken right from Yahtzee's mind instead of put as stop motion first! I especially love all the little single frame jokes and details, and the references, and everything really :D

[@MPAZ22]

dude well done. this is my favorite yahtzee review by far and now i have a reason to love it all the more.

[@Tickerbee]

Wolfenstein was, by far, always one of my favorite ZP's. And this video, as a result deserves far more credit than it's currently getting. :D

[@RangerOfTheOrder]

The animation is beautifully done. It kinda reminds me of the Thing Thing games I played as a kid, probably because the characters are round shapes with disembodied hands.

[@jrudo9]

this was really good, if all of yahtzee's vidoes were this well animated i would watch it weekly, or when ever they come out

[@Jaksonthefox]

You're beginning to build a fan following. A lot of people seem to have enjoyed such pretty, very beautiful done, animations. Especially ones tied in with Yahtzee rambling.

[@moristar]

That was the best review I ever seen or read. It was so beautiful, so I had to cry for a little.

[@boxcat24]

Can you please animate for the actual escapist channel? You are fantastic!

[@marvelousmoostacheman5560]

Tyler Murray He could maybe do some special episodes or something like that.

[@marvelousmoostacheman5560]

Tyler Murray That would be amazing if they did.

[@TheSlenderp]

I've dabbled in animation myself, and I can appreciate the incredible amount of work put into this video. Very well done.

[@902100101]

Jesus...that's really amazing animation you got there dude, keep up the good work

[@ronen_khazin]

I added this to my Favourites before I even started watching. I saw your first ZP remake, and loved it. This one was even better!

[@VideoGameFX]

Holy crap this is amazing! I friggin love yahtzee and when I saw this damn I was curious if you did a great job and damn you did not dissapoint good job!

[@GameGuyandLuLuPink]

That was awesome! ZP with fluent animation, a new point of awesome has been reached.

[@2sly4Anyone]

I would absolutely agree that these videos are among the few remakes that actually live up to and in some ways surpass the standards of the original video. Would definitely love to see more.

[@crosbying]

This animation is incredible, you have real talent. All the ideas that went into the associations you had while listening to Croshaw come off extremely well. Such as the end where he hangs the game from five to two stars, just great visual metaphor. Well done!!

[@damnedgarden]

Dude, AWESOME!, I saw the painkiller one and have been on the edge of my seat for the next one! Thanks for making my day.

[@PKPJayhawk04]

Wow this was actually really well done! I wasn't expecting it to be, but bravo sir. Not to mention you reanimated one of my favorite Zero Punctuations of all time. That limerick is fuckin' legendary haha.

[@liberty8981]

Good god this is amazing! Subtle references, amazing animation and it's completely legal!

[@Lean-cat]

This is clearly well made with a great amount of care, I kept pausing looking at the details in frames that were maybe in two frames of the entire video

[@thisisaformality]

Dude, never stop doing what you do. I bow to your superior skill.

[@TheForsakenEagle]

This was one of the most beautiful game reviews I have ever seen.

[@150cgy]

That was surprisingly enjoyable, in the sense of "I didn't expect it to be this good". Kudos!

[@deafweasel99]

That was truly astounding with imagery and graphics abounding with a talent like this your as popular as bliss and your work should sure draw a crowd in

[@CreamyArlenSpector]

I honestly thought this was going to be garbage but good lord did you shatter my expectations. You should make more!

[@pokefan2552]

2:39 elements of harmony

[@TrueStopwatch]

The greatest thing is that not only have you animated it (really smooth animation, bythewhy), you've put in some extra jokes where the original was otherwise bland, essentially adding another layer of humor which still has that Yahtzee-esque (It's a word, shut up!) feel to it. All the while, you've managed to keep the spirit and charm of the original review. This isn't just a fan-animation, it's an ACTUAL REMAKE. Seriously, make more of these when you have the time, because they're brilliant.

[@NamelessPlayerOfficial]

I can't tell in words how much i am fascinated! i subscribed to you, YOU EARNED IT :D

[@Sarvonis]

This animation was amazing please do all of your videos like this it rocks!

[@sparkie1j]

Now that i have started animating i could see an invisible timer at the top right of the video telling how long it takes to animate every 2 seconds great work man i aprreaciate this greatly :)

[@namelessdork2256]

Damn that was smooth as butter and absolutly connected to the review.

[@TheMjohann]

A very nice fan remake. The animations fit well in with the style he already use and it would be fun to see more remakes.

[@silverrathalos7]

This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. Good job dude.

[@nomadwhy1166]

Just found this again, I watched this years ago but still remember it. Still amazing.

[@ninjablack4347]

any idea what software he used to make it?

[@LuigIan2000]

The elements of harmony!

[@KDanielsS]

I know, right! Who would have guessed...

[@domino9two]

You should keep doing more of these, they're awesome!

[@gregormcscrungus9727]

The fact you included Marathon in that chart is awesome

[@realdoomerhours]

This was considerably more enjoyable than I expected it to be.

[@mahmoudelsheikh3147]

I really like the slick and smooth animations, good job.

[@MisterDragon]

Great job, smooth animation and captured a good portion of the original charm. Thank you for 4 minutes of good fun.

[@jimnicholas7334]

I've watched Yatzhee's videos about twice through over the years yet someone missed this glorious fan-make!

[@climbingbow]

brilliant an honestly didn't expect a fan make to be as awesome haha keep more coming :)

[@red_cosplay]

The Elements of Harmony are actually Maximum Speed, Maximum Strength and Maximum Armor. (and Veil). Excellent!

[@TehGoodcat]

Alot of fun to watch. It added so much more to his movies.

[@KDanielsS]

You're my saving grace you magnificent stranger. I should and probably will start looking for other stuff. One short and two full episodes adaptations are quite enough for the meantime. Although I'd hate to disappoint, more than a 100 people subscribed ever since I uploaded this video, and I doubt it because they wanted to see my animated macaroni picture.

[@brazeplays7296]

This is utterly fantastic. Were it possible to make something so elegant within a week I dare say a gig at The Escapist belonged in your repertoire.

[@KDanielsS]

Magical artifacts with the power to destroy evil and they reach their full power when honesty, kindness, laughter, generosity, loyalty and magic join forces.

[@TheFallenFace]

This was friggin' amazing. You are so much better at the Adobe suite then I... keep it up, friend.

[@BrookeFilth]

I like the way that the star rating is treated as the idlestand when they were going to hang the game.

[@RancidHamwallet]

this is amazing, love the animation

[@Motherbleepers2]

Yahtzee might hire you, the animation is so fluid it looks uncanny

[@haltopen12]

If only this could be done for all the reviews, this was awesome

[@DiddlyDiPotatoes]

Worth the wait. You're disturbingly good at this.

[@wispernrain]

Yahtzee tweeted about this and brought me here, video was great and a real joy to watch

[@stijnvandevyver7958]

The animation is so......fluid. It's candy for my eyes.

[@bibbysonny7498]

I like how the magic medallion is the elements of harmony.

[@LambdaObjection]

the shout out to Asterix made it amazing

[@Whoami691]

i love the still image element of yahtzees reviews but this is defiantly a great remake, gj.

[@xandercop]

I had no idea this was a fan remake until i read the script under the video -.- well done

[@barthvader95]

I love that Asterix reference. For those who blinked, he smashed the bard with a sledgehammer.

[@Muzzled]

References to fill the time, animation so fluid it dribbled down the screen and timing so perfect I can't even come up with a proper metaphor. If you don't make more, I may become rather grumpy.

[@brogeneral]

Probably the best animated ZP thus far.

[@Jacktoro44]

Well if I had to give some constructive criticism it's that THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER CREATED BY ANYONE EVER!

[@rylog8]

four minutes of limerick. You are a God, Yahtzee

[@AwesomeStuffHD]

THIS MAKES ME UNREASONABLY EXCITED

[@piggosalternateaccount4917]

Still one of my favourite videos ever

[@TheAkuandr3zShow]

Dude this was so well made, it made the original one funnier. Keep it up!!!

[@elementalpowerstar]

This is nice, I'd love to see more of these... ZP is one of my favorite review series, just the sheer amount of "Getting down to brass tax." he does is very appealing.

[@Karrallah]

I was watching this and thought "This is a pretty good modern remake of an old ZP video" Then I realized it was released only a year or two after the original video. Damn impressive

[@Thekillerbanana115]

Elements of harmony...

[@PERSONTHATISCLEVER]

Props on doing this. I didn't know you would still do some of these.

[@CaptainCapsize]

Dude KDanielsS, this is awesome animation! Absolutely loved it!!

[@deafweasel99]

one of my life goals is to remember all the limericks in this off by heart.

[@navarone9942]

That was the best fan remake I've EVER SEEN!!!!!!!! I mean HOLY SHIT that was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TheHeadHunter1000]

Elements got edited out in the actual ZP video. Just goes to show how many people have no life but to rant about things they don't like. Hell even Das Boshit used a single audio and there was a huge pointless flame war over it.

[@MegamanXfan21xx]

The actual ZP video came out in 2009, over a year before MLP premiered.

[@DaWulf13]

the fact that it was in limerick form seems more interesting than the review itself

[@Batman-tz5cw]

Hmm...Hmmmm...GOOD JOB MY GOOD SIR! Well done, I expected some shit but this, this is amazing.

[@macmachine88]

Great. Now I want all the escapists videos like this! You have ruined them for me!!! Great work =) was awesome to watch. And made it even funnier!

[@togekiss1995]

I say that this is a very well done remake. Gets across the point Yahtzee makes, well timed actions from characters in video, and a very good video in general. My friend, in this case, if he makes a review for KH 1.5HD, I'm sure you'll do the right thing.

[@jrlegoman]

That ring has the elements of harmony on it!!!!

[@paladinboyd1228]

This is brilliant!

[@wolf92193]

I've seen a few fully animated versions of ZP, but this was the first I actually liked over the original. Most impressive.

[@MegaTrafficCone]

He did the whole thing in limerick! THAT'S AWESOME!

[@JSHADOWM]

the Thuele madalion's crystals in this vid are the elements of harmony. is a nice and stealthy easter egg

[@chazzergamer]

Excellent animation and charm. Also the MLP:FIM reference was very fun. You have made a Brony very happy today.

[@neothunder02]

This is amazing! Great job on this :)

[@MrAlexxela2434]

this is absolutely fantastic good sir, I came in expecting someone trying to imitate Yahtzee's Unique review method and was pleasantly surprised at a brilliant and well done animation :D gold stars fellow

[@tanner4300]

Holy shit its the elements of harmony. "The Ele" *slap* shut up prices twilight
