When I saw this video was 10 hours long I assumed it was an unedited VOD of a playthrough, but no, there's actually high quality editing and explanation all the way through. You're absolutely insane for making a video this long and it's really impressive
Bro its a dream come true. Sometimes i watch high quality videos like this and think to myself "ahh i wish it wouldn end" and this vid is closest banger to being neverending i saw yet.
I'm 2 hours in, never played factorio but this is great If you like long video game stuff here's another if you've never seen It's a 5 hour video on the history of the A Button Challenge for super Mario 64 ruclips.net/video/yXbJe-rUNP8/видео.htmlsi=AeITp7WYwPuk1S_v
These videos are the reason why i like youtube so much. 10 hours of nothing but high quality gameplay with no obnoxious edits and no annoying idiot screaming in his mic. Good job.
What blows my mind is it's essentially a 10-hour long video about logistics problem solving with occasional explosive intermissions. No-one could make me sit through a 10-hour long lecture about logisitics problem solving, even if there was food, beer and occassoinal explosions. But, this was genuninely entertaining. Also, Michael. When you became a truck driver originally Denmark lost a potentially briliant engineer/coder.
This is actually insane. Usually I expect a ~50m of a very high quality video, or ~10hrs or a very low-effort (quality wise) production. This video is _insanely_ long, and _very_ engaging throughout the whole thing. I actually had to put down my plans to use this as "background noise" and ended up sitting through the whole thing. I'm actually amazed dude. Congrats on this video!
I aggree,. I never have watched a Factorio Series this way. Normaly i open a Map, play and let the video play in the backside, maybe switching from time to time. This,... has cost me hours of progress in my own game lol. Thanks for that hahaha. While i have to say, i play this game since... i dont know maybe 1 week after it hit steam. But i never played thiis intense. Mostly a LOT of mods to spice it up and change the experience. I bought it and thought its a nice game for some time, not knowing that i, years later still can play it through all the MODs you can gather. Its one of this few games that never get old, never need graphic updates just by very carefully thought thrue game choices. Its one of the Games i rate as... Its like in the old time :D
3:24:30 After 3-1/2 hours of “introductory” gameplay, we finally get to the real introduction! And you thought only the finales were epic multi-part adventures.
@@mmacedok I'm watching Factory for the first time and just looked in the comments. Your comment is literally where I am (3:24:32) - I'm excited to see what comes next, and besides, you can't imagine the joy of this coincidence.
the biters must have really felt like you were a terrible parasite at the beginning... every time they think theyve killed you and then you show up with an even bigger base 60 minutes later
I've never played this game, nor watched your videos. Your editing, explanations, voice, and humor have sold me. I'm a few hours in and will definitely be finishing. Worth the subscription
I am now 6 hours in. I was expecting more of a raw style of gameplay, this is absolutely insane. The level of quality content is crazy. There is very little downtime where something isnt being explained or examined. Everything is very entertaining
I am basically a beginner at Factorio, and watching this series is absolutely amazing. I'm only 4 and a half hours in but it's incredible to watch all the processes, high-quality explanations, and all the little jokes peppered through. Thank you so much for making such a fantastic video!
This video seems to be a masterpiece already, so I might end up editing this comment to add more over time, but... 42:57 Having a section like this where you show a full "cycle" through your base is genius. It really helps to pull all of the scattered clips together into a cohesive whole, and brings much-needed perspective to the task at hand. Love it!
I... wow, this is something I would not be capable of. I wouldn't last 5 minutes as I watch you build just a small complex to make a thing so fast I blink and it's done.... Between you and Nilaus I am humbled by just how organised you get and so quickly. I know I will never try something like this but to watch it's astonishing
I have never played nor watched a minute of factorio content before in my life but I’m so glad the first video I ever saw was your 10 hour long god run masterpiece. Thank you
This is an amazing way to just chill on a satursay afternoon/evening/night. Not only because it's by Mike, but because it's one of the greatest Factorio series ever conceived (and IMO, THE best one.) Love it Michael, I will watch it wirh the same excitement as when the episodes were dropping for the better part of a year.
This isnt the video I searched, but the video I didnt know I need I couldnt imagine sitting through 10 hours of factorio would go so fast, you did a really good job keeping this interesting!
Love this for making it easier to binge through this series again, from finishing the rewatch. I love foreshadowing that didn't notice the first time when watching. Beautiful stuff! I'm also keen to seeing how the run with 100% evolution goes too when that kicks off again!
This video landed perfectly. Yesterday I started watching some more playthroughs of Factorio and I was searching for a new Deathworld run. This is diamond material!
7:22:20 I cannot begin to tell you how much i love this whole part of the video. It was so beautifully and masterfully edited, and what i mean by that is it seemingly wasn’t. You don’t do any super fancy build-up, no music, no talking over it. You see the train pull up to the area, with only the noises of the game. Then the artillery guns extend their barrels and begin re-directing to their first targets, and begin firing. just the pure quietness of the game, uninterrupted is powerful. it felt powerful. the sound of the guns booming was so stunning in such an amazing segment of the video it was just absolutely amazing to watch the first time. i know this isn’t some high budget movie and you weren’t going for an emotional pull for this particular part of the video, but i thought it’d be nice to mention how incredibly you pulled it off if you did. better than most high budget movies. real life is a lot more powerful than music, and just the sounds of those guns is powerful.
As a person with ADHD - newly diagnosed and unmedicated this game is a nightmare, I'm so impressed by your methodology. It's been so rewarding looking at it from day one and seeing the progession, albeit you have a great deal of experience in the game going in but to me and my somewhat hampered brain the order and organization is beautiful.
It is so interesting to see all the different phases of the game. You start off with the temporary builds, where grenades are king, and attacks require manual intervention. Then a proper wall needing manual repair and still on starter resources, but grenades don't do much. Then bots and laser turrets, with proper base automation going, but the need for expansion. Then the base is in okay shape, and you have the ultimate spider armor, but big and behemoth biters arrive. Finally you arrive at artillery.
I love how in depth he explains the cause and effect of things. I never thought of Efficency Modules as literally being "starve the biters, less attacks". And calculating how much Iron each tech requires, really puts things in perspective.
this is the first time and probably the last time i will watch something this long, but i am proud to say, that ive did watch the whole thing and not just in the background focused on something else. it took me 9 days to watch the whole thing. i have massive respect for you
"So what is the best way to place those annoying pumpjacks? ... Well, I dunno, but this is one way to do it." you're teaching me to worry a bit less (a lot less) about certain things. I used to calculate ratios down to fractions like my life depended on saving the last few assemblers. and after all that I'd improvise a horrible bowl of pasta. ...on second thought I know what it is, I played Satisfactory first, which has constant, infinite resource nodes, so it was possible to make perfect ratios everywhere. that approach falls apart pretty quick when ore patches run dry or part of the base becomes lunch
Not sure why it took RUclips this long to recommend me your channel Michael, im so glad I found it! This was insane and your ability to pull it off it second to none. Very well done, I can't wait to watch the other videos on your chan.
Oh just the video I was looking for. Can't wait to tackle this over the next week or so. I love long-form videos of factorio, and so far, this one is really good! Definitely earned a sub!
I am just now realizing that the biters are the inspiration for some of the enemies in satisfactory. Crazy good video, never been hooked on factorio like this before.
I have never thought that someone will make me watch 12hrs long (with 2nd part included) RUclips video, but you did it. Thanks for this awesome content, I really appreciate your efforts, especially with editing. Greetings from Poland!
RUclips stopped recommending me your channel and unfortunately i forgot about it, i just remembered and am now so happy i have a whole bunch of videos to catch up on.
Wow I really loved this video ! This has to be one of the most "edge of your seat" factorio vids I've seen. Totally absorbing and well narrated. Thanks for sharing!
My guy, I've never even played or watched this game but you had me throughly interested throughout the entire video. Congrats man, not many creators can do that but you can :)
3 Hours and 21 minutes in, I'm hooked to your ability to tell a story. Your gameplay is great, your adlibs are funny and it's just pure entertainment for me. Well played, good sir. I hear you did it again with biter evo turned to 100%. I'll watch that when I'm done with this gem.
Incredible! I’m a new player and struggle with the stock settings. When I saw the initial map after you tweaked the settings I thought this is impossible dude, no way ANYONE could survive this. After watching other death world play throughs where people tweak settings to HELP them like bumping up the starting area and upping moister for more trees, as well as increasing the mineral richness so they could stay in the starting area longer; the fact that you kept all default settings except for the things that made it HARDER on yourself is crazy. I’m three hours into the video and I never would have thought it possible to get where you are now. Absolutely mind blowing.
Thanks! All those "help" type tweaks (especially more starter resources) can make 600% deathworld even easier than "unchanged normal deathworld", and my personal annoyance with such tainted claims where actually one of the driving factors to make this "pure" playthrough
Absolutely, It always felt a little off to me when people would change settings to help them in a challenge run, even just bumping up the trees or such. There is something about the fact that you did this "pure" that just makes it 100x more satisfying!@@MichaelHendriks
Dude, the amount of work in all of this. A simple Thank you so f much is not enough. So, please accept this very acrobatic frontflip into a head to ground japanese-style reverence THANK YOU SO F MUCH 😂 Really, really appreciated, you won a intasub. Wish u the best in your life
I didnt even know this guy or this game at all prior to finding this video. I'm currently 4 hours in and I watch this every night before I go to bed it's amazing. The editing skills alone are phenomenal the vid deserves way more views. Very good vid bro keep it up
I've never ever played Factorio in my life, just the demo many years ago and left it after some minutes. Still watched through and enjoyed the whole thing. One of the best videos in the entirety of youtube hands down. Impressive.
I think I have watched about 60 hours of your videos, and only now I have finally found out what's your accent! At around 4:19:00 you say you are Dutch 😌 Man I love your videos so much. Even the long ones I watch with focus, not as a background activity. You are awesome!
Man this is a masterpiece. I just bought this game and watched some tutorials and hooked to this video. You are amazing. Never saw a 10hr game video on youtube which is high quality like yours.
this is my first Factorio video ever and you made me want to try this out for myself. the pacing, random captions and commentary was simply amazing. would definitely be binging more of your content!!!
I'm 4hours in, and i have to say that im totally hooked. The editing in this "movie" is absolutely fantastic, and voiceover the whole time.. I subbed, subbed subbed.. Wish i discovered your channel earlier. Amazing work.
So, how did this april fools joke play out for you? I am not quite sure people are getting this and are now locked into a 10 hour factorio video. Good bye weekend plans...
This is great man, 10 hours saturated with clever and funny humour, intense strategical decisions, and making an absolute mockery of the biters even at their most powerful, you have cemented yourself as the apex predator of the factorio planet
Man, the fact that you’ve edited all 10 hours of this video with various bits, voice edits, and even talking over these 10 hours with recorded voice footage that was after the video, you’re insane and I’m all here for it, wonderful video
never played this game. but you are truly in it. watching 2h of this video, I have to say (and don't want to know) you invented many hours in this game, but beautiful explained everything why and where you did. For creating this video (without seeing the end) you deserve a thumb up. Unbelivible what it has taken you to create this video. Well done.
It has been the factorio ride of my life watching this series. I'm sad it's come to an end, but so happy that it happened. Michael Hendriks, you are one MAD bastard and I love it.
This is the best Factorio playthrough I've seen. Detailed, interesting, witty and funny as hell. You're an engineer of some sort I gather? The nerdyness is real, I love it!
Love to see this type of long form content still doing decently fine on this platform. Keep it up. Not done with the video (about 2 hours in), but extremally fun to watch.
Truly, and with no hyperbole, thank you for this video. A fully edited 10 hour video of a fascinating game played in the most extreme of ways, with twists and turns and plenty to learn. RUclips content as high-effort and passion like this is very rare.
6 minutes in and I’m blown away by how good this is. Note: I’ll edit in how much I’m enjoying this 10 bloody hour long video as I watch it 43 minutes in: 😧 it’s like watching an entertaining commentary movie that just keeps on giving. Love it so far! 2 1/4 hours in: Went from great to good for 10 minutes then picked up again (happened a while ago). At this point my trust in the RUclipsr to continue to entertain me is high enough that I’ll just go ahead and say this entire video is a banger (edit: it is, just finished watching it all). Plus he edited it all properly and provided commentary for it like a mad lad… Hendriks, this was insanely good, thank you!
5:20:20 is soo satisfying, after about 60 hours of suffering you are just mowing through those biter camps. Thats how to treat a native population which is protesting your development.
THANK YOU for actually using factorio music and for balancing the audio when you speak, you have no idea (or you probably know it better than me) how much this improves the watching experience. factorio music was built to pair with factorio gameplay, anything else feels kind of out of place
Love this style of Factorio content, it's vanishingly rare, but every bit of it is precious, especially such an incredible challenge, played so well, and edited for us. It's also very satisfying just to have the whole challenge in (technically, two) videos and to just be able to go through it all again in one smooth, uninterrupted industrial slurry flow. The metaphor kind of ran out of control, much like the plans for "world peace" here, but hey.

Thanks! All those "help" type tweaks (especially more starter resources) can make 600% deathworld even easier than "unchanged normal deathworld", and my personal annoyance with such tainted claims where actually one of the driving factors to make this "pure" playthrough
Absolutely, It always felt a little off to me when people would change settings to help them in a challenge run, even just bumping up the trees or such. There is something about the fact that you did this "pure" that just makes it 100x more satisfying!@@MichaelHendriks
I might regret starting this at 11pm, but who needs sleep anyway when you have a Michael video!!
Dude, the amount of work in all of this. A simple Thank you so f much is not enough. So, please accept this very acrobatic frontflip into a head to ground japanese-style reverence THANK YOU SO F MUCH 😂 Really, really appreciated, you won a intasub. Wish u the best in your life
You don't seem to realize that cliffs and water are FREE and INDESTRUCTIBLE walls that biters CAN NEVER cross.
They still often create weak points in ones defense
I didnt even know this guy or this game at all prior to finding this video. I'm currently 4 hours in and I watch this every night before I go to bed it's amazing. The editing skills alone are phenomenal the vid deserves way more views. Very good vid bro keep it up
I just love these multihours movies you make. Perfect when you have nothing else to watch or are sick or something.
Sitting at home sick with Covid, I must agree with this sentiment.
I've never ever played Factorio in my life, just the demo many years ago and left it after some minutes. Still watched through and enjoyed the whole thing. One of the best videos in the entirety of youtube hands down. Impressive.
Not enough likes and views for the amount of dedication you have. Mad respect 👍🏻keep it going
I think I have watched about 60 hours of your videos, and only now I have finally found out what's your accent! At around 4:19:00 you say you are Dutch 😌 Man I love your videos so much. Even the long ones I watch with focus, not as a background activity. You are awesome!
This is the only content of "I survived 100/1000/365" content I like
what is the song that starts at 4:55:00?
Good video man! You have a good energy and voice for this beast of a video
I even enjoyed the hammy quips with a smirk x)
One of my favorite series on youtube edited into a 10 hour video of madness?! im in!
Man this is a masterpiece. I just bought this game and watched some tutorials and hooked to this video. You are amazing. Never saw a 10hr game video on youtube which is high quality like yours.
YT: we need more short form media, people only engage with short videos
This guy:
He is my savior
This is really awesome, deserves so many more views! Super engaging watch
incedible, this will be watched over the next week (also 1st time being a time traveler)
Hahaha roookie xDD
this is my first Factorio video ever and you made me want to try this out for myself. the pacing, random captions and commentary was simply amazing. would definitely be binging more of your content!!!
This is so good, the editing effort here alone must have taken ages.
I'm 4hours in, and i have to say that im totally hooked.
The editing in this "movie" is absolutely fantastic, and voiceover the whole time..
I subbed, subbed subbed.. Wish i discovered your channel earlier. Amazing work.
you sound so Dutch :) 😁
I absolutely love your voice, story telling, and highly intelligent writing! Wonderful content my friend!
So, how did this april fools joke play out for you? I am not quite sure people are getting this and are now locked into a 10 hour factorio video. Good bye weekend plans...
Using the meta-meta to fool people into watching a REAL "10 hours" video hehehe
This is great man, 10 hours saturated with clever and funny humour, intense strategical decisions, and making an absolute mockery of the biters even at their most powerful, you have cemented yourself as the apex predator of the factorio planet
Best gaming video ive ever seen, 24 yo yet this playthrough took me an entire day to finish , huge congrats on your work keep it up
Man, the fact that you’ve edited all 10 hours of this video with various bits, voice edits, and even talking over these 10 hours with recorded voice footage that was after the video, you’re insane and I’m all here for it, wonderful video
never played this game. but you are truly in it. watching 2h of this video, I have to say (and don't want to know) you invented many hours in this game, but beautiful explained everything why and where you did.
For creating this video (without seeing the end) you deserve a thumb up. Unbelivible what it has taken you to create this video.
Well done.
This. Was. Amazing. All 10 and a half hours had me hooked. I watched it over a few days and enjoyed every second. You earned a subscriber!
It has been the factorio ride of my life watching this series. I'm sad it's come to an end, but so happy that it happened. Michael Hendriks, you are one MAD bastard and I love it.
this is so awesome, the amount of effort is clearly showing! u definitely deserve more subs.
This is the best Factorio playthrough I've seen. Detailed, interesting, witty and funny as hell.
You're an engineer of some sort I gather? The nerdyness is real, I love it!
Man I am blown away by the scale and the quality of this video! It’s incredible! Thank you so much for making it man!!
Bro this video was sooo good I now wanna buy this game. Never watched anything about this game before!
Great, I had to subscribe, I just couldn’t let this insane effort go unsupported. I’m in awe.
Love to see this type of long form content still doing decently fine on this platform. Keep it up.
Not done with the video (about 2 hours in), but extremally fun to watch.
Truly, and with no hyperbole, thank you for this video. A fully edited 10 hour video of a fascinating game played in the most extreme of ways, with twists and turns and plenty to learn. RUclips content as high-effort and passion like this is very rare.
6 minutes in and I’m blown away by how good this is.
Note: I’ll edit in how much I’m enjoying this 10 bloody hour long video as I watch it
43 minutes in: 😧 it’s like watching an entertaining commentary movie that just keeps on giving. Love it so far!
2 1/4 hours in: Went from great to good for 10 minutes then picked up again (happened a while ago). At this point my trust in the RUclipsr to continue to entertain me is high enough that I’ll just go ahead and say this entire video is a banger (edit: it is, just finished watching it all). Plus he edited it all properly and provided commentary for it like a mad lad…
Hendriks, this was insanely good, thank you!
Thank you for making a multi-episode upload, now I don't have to traverse youtube AND I get to rewatch this whole series :)
5:20:20 is soo satisfying, after about 60 hours of suffering you are just mowing through those biter camps. Thats how to treat a native population which is protesting your development.
Dang, I love the editing. You hit the right tempo perfectly. Narrating and then pausing to just watch was very very well done.
THANK YOU for actually using factorio music and for balancing the audio when you speak, you have no idea (or you probably know it better than me) how much this improves the watching experience. factorio music was built to pair with factorio gameplay, anything else feels kind of out of place
This was extremely satisfying. Well done on the editing and commentary! You had me laughing out loud!
I'm at 1:38 and can't stop watching, will get back to it eventually, it's so good and yet so different from my regular Factorio experience.
Im gunna fall asleep to this.
And wake up.
and not even be halfway through.
Love this style of Factorio content, it's vanishingly rare, but every bit of it is precious, especially such an incredible challenge, played so well, and edited for us. It's also very satisfying just to have the whole challenge in (technically, two) videos and to just be able to go through it all again in one smooth, uninterrupted industrial slurry flow. The metaphor kind of ran out of control, much like the plans for "world peace" here, but hey.
This is the longest video ive ever watched and i absolutely loved it. Keep up the amazing videos man
