    So, basically, a lot of people were scammed out of a lot of money, spent on a shitty merge game on balls that ultimately wouldn't even stick around, rendering their purchases ultimately meaningless in about a week when the server they spend their money on crashes.

    I don't know what the point of the video is, but I can't help but feel like it's nothing but a good look into how insanely easy it is to make a predatory game. Of course people are gonna wanna see every funny looking ball and literally all it had to do was it make it take an unreasonable amount of time to get every ball and make the game so poorly that it crashes over and over and over so you quite literally have to spend money to get everything. It's not even a grind like a clicker at that point, you're not paying to skip the wait time, but to guarantee you get to see the last ball. I'm happy for anyone who had a good time with this game without spending money, but everyone who did waste their hard earned cash, I'm sorry you were preyed on by such a shitty game.

      1 robux is worth around 1 cent (0.01 USD) so just divide the robux by 100 and you have your dollars spent.

    This is completely unrelated to the video, but in the JToH map, the cyan block in the Citadel of Laptop Splitting tower frame is unanchored. If you get there, you can push it down into the ball pit. It doesn't do anything except sit there, but it could potentially be used as a helper for dupes?

    yo new update came out. When you merge items you can get coins. With these coins you can buy certain things that can spawn as well as noob helpers, clones, tools, name tags, and more. When more people also join a private server together, the ball spawning speed increases, and can go to 2x spawn rate I think.

      Thank you, I'm happy this is your favorite video of mine. I don't usually tend to make part twos for videos like these, for instance The Password Game video I uploaded, which recently had a bit of a breakthrough and could have an updated video to it, however to me I probably wouldn't make a follow-up on that video or any other video like this I've made.
      I haven't fully been caught up on the Merge! games and community but I am aware the new Merge game added five final balls, all being different from Merge Classic, I'm glad I was able to make the new Merge expand farther because of this video. I don't exactly remember what Balls 21-25 is but I've seen them all before, especially the question mark ball shown in the thumbnail of this video, believe it or not Birbs himself reached out to me and was inspired to make the ball in the thumbnail in the new Merge itself which is cool.
      I do remember there being a duplication glitch with the saving and loading feature in new Merge, but when it comes to Merge Classic I don't believe much has happened there. I'd imagine many people went for Ball 25 and sadly ultimately failed but as for public servers if I recall Ball 22 has been obtained legitimately before. Obviously Ball 25 has been obtained tons of times due to exploits and many other loopholes to break the game.
      Merge Classic holds a special place in my heart, it was a really fun game and community from late 2021 to mid 2022. I enjoyed grinding for Ball 25 and just being around the community at that time. I sort of made this video to really get this game and story out there and I suppose I was successful with it. I'm glad I was able to come back to this project for a couple weeks and let many people (probably) experience the same thing. I never really cared for new Merge, it's not bad it just didn't have that simplistic taste of feeling that Merge Classic had, this video was subjected around Merge Classic.
      I'm not sure what else has happened around Merge and it's community but I imagine a lot more has happened that I've missed, but unfortunately I probably will not make a part two to this video. I simply just wanted to make this as some kind of reminiscence that could be seen out there and I believe I did a good job at doing that.

      @@SlashedWasTaken I understand not wanting to make a second part, the production would completely rupture your upload schedule, merge (and the classic version) is a phenomenon in Roblox in which a community comes together and has to persevere through the chaos and spend hours at a time in a single server, it won’t happen again, and that’s fine, but as Igor said in Minecraft story mode (which is one of my all time favorites) “Nothing built can last forever, and every legend no matter how great fades with time.” The saga of merge will never happen again, but it was pretty damn awesome to see it.

      To me I don't see there being another game like Merge Classic, maybe on the subject of time-wasting probably but man it hits hard looking back it. Over two years ago doesn't feel real to me.
      On a side note I guess I don't really have an upload schedule, I'm not really sure what to upload but when the time comes I'll think or remember something, and get it finished days if not weeks later. I finished a 15-minute video a few weeks ago but never got around to uploading it, mainly because I think it's a bit boring but I've also gotten into some deep territories lately, just some personal things that I should probably lay low for a bit, but who knows, maybe something for Merge might happen again
