I think your video had the desired effect 🤣 This year's Fasnacht celebration had almost 2,000 people attending. They were expecting 200, but they got way more, and I imagine it's because of videos like yours. As someone who grew up going to Fasnacht, and someone who even recognized some of the people and musicians in your video, thank you for promoting this wonderful little town, and the event. 😀
who fckn cares. what is fknut so.why.
As someone who would *love* to visit for Fasnacht, I love hearing this. I hope it stays busy for you guys every year. Though I imagine finding a place nearby to stay during the celebration isn't the easiest of tasks.
Wow that is incredible! 2k people when they expected only 200 to show! wow
This year we had to sell advanced tickets and limit the number of people inside our historic buildings! 😅
It would be cool if you could organize a petition to have Bethesda to put up an in game poster of the flyer that shows ways to donate to the real life helvatia.
Yes
YES!!!!
@@orryteare7452 YES
yep. i support this statement.
1,000% yes! A free poster from the atom store. :)
I got a nice thank you email from them for my donation, I hope people donate and take next years Fasnacht to another level, they really do appreciate it.
I just put about 20 hours into editing this video over my experience at the REAL Fasnacht celebration.. That's not even counting the amount of time, & money I used to go out to Helvetia, West Virginia to get all of this footage! This video has been a long time in the making..
Since this only happens once a year, you will only see this footage of the real celebration here on my channel for now! I didn't notice anyone else out there recording the event in 2020, unless it was from their phone recording tidbits.
Consider leaving a like on the video, and possibly share this with some people who you'd think would be interested in this.
rifle your the best
Notice me
Don’t notice me
Looks like a fun event to attend to
Ok I was so confused at first
I love the fact that this is a real life event
its still a thing a ton of people celebrate in germany, in denmark we celebrate it too under another name, Fastelavn, it variates a bit in the way its celebrated, but in general its the same
Imagesearch; fasnacht luzern
on google. thats how we celebrate fasnacht in my hometown in Switzerland ;)
I've been to fasnacht in Stetten I few times!
Yeah ❤
As a Swiss national I cannot thank you enough to show my culture to the world and I appreciate you trying to help the community. Will pass this along :D
Grüezi gseit.
I was there this year. I remember seeing a bearded guy with a camera. I didn't know it was you, bruh. But then again there's a lot of people walking around looking like cast members of Duck Dynasty in WV. I live an hour and twenty minutes away. I've had lunch at the restaurant a few times. I'm from the Savage Divide in real life. Bethesda did a good job implementing my home state in the game.
Men before machine, amirite?
You're from the Savage Divide, eh?
How's Rose doing?
Deniz Julian Metinoğlu T. if anyone goes to Grafton tell the Mayor I said hi
I don't really feel like they did an amazing job. They could have done a lot more for Charleston, Morgantown, and Wheeling. There was a lot of history they could have worked with like the burning of the capitol buildings, or Marshall University, or the historic WVSU. I was kinda sad to not see something like Charleston High School included or some kind of alternative timeline for it. But I guess they did enough, idk how much they could squeeze in to a game about an entire state.
@@dandbfilms8022 yeah the same thing with Fallout New Vegas...I lived in Henderson Nevada when it came out and its a major city and in the game it wasn't that big lol...but yeah , trying to even remotely replicate a state...is a massive undertaking...they decide on some things and toss others out...
GREAT JOB RIFLE! This is exactly, why Bethesda's Fallout Series is phenominal! The amount of detail and work going into research, art and geographical precision, is what makes Fallout a GREAT franchise. Washington, Boston and West Virginia have been great to explore and visit, if you cant yourself. Looking forward to next adventure!!
i agree! i’m a super big fallout nerd so i may be bias but even tho the games got some flack for one thing or another but they are amazing games! i’ve been playing 76 for probably a little over 2 weeks now and i’m enjoying it a lot more then i thought i would! and i regret talking shit about the game before playing it because i’ve been enjoying it a lot.
@@michelangelo5903 I have a feeling that a lot of people will share your sentiment in the coming months as the game seems to be starting to show it´s potential realized...
sweet vlog we can achieve anything!
From a west Virginia native I can say you make our state proud with showcasing of our simple but luxurious full love life we live! Thanks bro!
Donated. More than happy to support the real fasnacht.
I'm just gonna drive up there soon and deliver some stuff
That was awesome. I'm about 2½ hours away, down near Charleston, and I'd never heard of this before 76. Might need to change that...
Imagine being at an event like this it looks super fun basically a costume party but still
I visit this video every year now around fasnacht event f76.i love to see small towns like this getting some❤ the world is slowly forgetting about things like this and it's sad. With the way the world is today it's nice to see there's still times when everyone can get together put aside their differences whether it be personal, political, ECT and just enjoy each other's company and have fun.this is what Americans should be doing! This is who we are! And we shouldn't forget that. Great job highlighting this town and showing love to these people and their traditions👍
What a shame, so many trash Bethesda, at every turn. I am in my fifties and AM not a gamer, however, while at home recovering, from an illness, I stumbled into Fallout 3. The art, ambience and the FEEL, of this game was impressive. Most Gamers look over how much work goes into GUN DESIGN. INTRICATE!! You learn geography, from this game. The amount of CHAOS that can go on, at any moment, is stunning. Even with the bugs, Bethesda has gone over the top, with game implementation. I thank Them, for their hard work.
I'm embarrassed to think about the amount of hours I put into fo3 back in high school...
Jk no I'm not.
Check out Fallout New Vegas if you like fo3.
Yes! Do as pixi suggested! New Vegas is amazing!
Fallout 3 was my introduction to the series, good times. If you like 3 I'd say that New Vegas is certainly worth a look.
Try borderlands
@@agentpixi6435 I played Fo3 back in the good times when I was still in highschool. Good times indeed.
Thank you for your engagement in preserving small localities in or great state of WV!
Point Pleasant has a “ Moth-man Festival” every year
I am amazed how well Bethesda rebuild this little village in Fallout 76. On a side note on the sold dishes (minute 18:47): I know #3 quite well as I live in Saarland and if this recipe is quite close to what we have here I can highly recommend it, and it is really a classic for this region. I am amazed they have this on their menu. Usually you eat it inbetween a sliced roll and have a beer (Karlsberg would be the most known regional brand) as beverage. #4 is a rather modern thing but you can really get a Döner Kebab everywhere nowadays all over Germany, but this is definitely not a classic german recipe ... a well, thanks Rifle for this very interesing video, keep up your excellent work
It's not even German in the first place. Doner Kebabs are Turkish as it clearly stated on menu it was brought to the Germans by Turkish immigrants, not sure why it's claimed to be a German food lol if I'm wrong then please do let me know but I'm pretty certain it's not remotely German XD you can get donor meat on almost every corner of England, 90% of them are owned by Turkish as well so that should say something in itself
@@michaezo339 the classic döner was indeed invented in berlin by a turkish cook. He just put that meet in bread. So it is really kinda a german dish. Thats the great thing about it i think, food just connects us humans better than anything. It really gave me warm feelings to see some parts of home right in the us in helvetia west virginia.
Thank you so much for supporting IRL Helvetia!
Imagine walking into your house after work and then walking out of the same house in fallout 76
That is amazing!!! It’s crazy to see all these building in real life! Thanks for taking all the time and effort to make this!
Greetings from Germany. My home town is known for our Fastnacht tradition😁
Maybe RifleGaming should do the same video, hard work and effort next years event but in Germany this time? 🤔🤔
@JesseRedbull We in Southern Germany celebrate Fasnacht differently than e.g. in Cologne. We call it Fasnet.
Hauptsache dort gibt es Döner xD Aber German Gyros ist etwas weit her geholt ^^
@@2705Stocki Ja, das stimmt 😅 Bekomme aber schon fast nen Anfall wenn ich in Fallout Krapfen lese... bei uns heißt das Fasnetsküchle 😅
@@Kevin32LP
Ich hätte nie gedacht, dass ich mal d' Fasnet in einem Fallout game sehen würde.
4:45 - I found Rifle's mask.
I grew up in Roanoke Virginia and I’ve been to West Virginia over a dozen times and I’ve never heard of that little town but that’s really cool to know this is actually in the game.. I appreciate you sharing love the video brother god bless
“Burn him, burn him, burn him!” I loved saying that each and every time the event was up on 76
this is so cool!
I love your vids and I’m subbed jersey
celebrity sighting!
76 likes.. no one else like!
Jersey mt man!
Fantastic video!! Thankyou so much for your hard work and time, it's greatly appreciated. Sharing to FO76 friends.
Thank you for the positive feedback, and I highly appreciate you sharing this with your friends!
I donated $10 it’s not much but hopefully together we can raise enough to get them to their goal
If everything did that it would be huge!!!
That's one of the few places in my state I haven't seen. Really hoping to make it to the fest one day. Glad you enjoyed yourself!
I love how you don't only focus on gaming and how it supports you. But how you can use your platform to drive up support for the causes you feel need a push.
I remember watching this like it was yesterday 🤔
Lol
Yeah, the video literally got corrupted on RUclips and became unwatchable on all devices after a few hours..
@@RifleGaming RUclips is weird
@@RifleGaming I was wondering about it
@@RifleGaming no worries, I had a feeling something wasn't right, I hope your reupload gets as much or more support than the last 👍
I've played Fallout 76 since it first came out and we just finished 2 weeks of the Fasnacht Event every hour of every day. It is SO fun knowing it was taken very accurately from a real town & celebration! Thank you!
Definitely am down to throw them a donation of 20 bucks. I think its awesome they gave a little nod to 76 with the Deathclaw mask. Good ol' wholesome stuff. Just like that event that happened at the RL Goodsprings.
Really makes me appreciate the Fallout community being so kind and helping out people like this. I completely support this.
This is pretty cool. Helvetia is a very small town, it makes me wonder how Bethesda decided to include the town in the game. Good attention to detail. Also Doner Kabobs are really good
It's so cool seeing the real thing, and seeing in game masks irl.
Every time the event is happening in the game I remember this video, it's great to know the real event that inspired the game. I'm happy that this act by Bethesda and this video in particular helped bring more visibility to the event in real life. If I didn't live in another country I would definitely go see the event in person. Congratulations friend, you do an incredible job.
Love this video! Thanks for all you have done for the Fallout community for all these years.
Appreciate that sir. You keep up the great work yourself for the Fallout community!
You did some incredible work with this, Rifle. It’s really a treat to compare real life Helvetia with 76’s depiction. I have to say they did a great job. Thanks for showing us all of this, and glad you enjoyed it!
Wow this video's giving me an extreme sense of déjà vu... :P
I know this is an old video, but have only recently started playing FO76. I love the little town of Helvetia in game. Just donated $5, thanks for the video. Bethesda did a really good job of recreating this pretty little town.
They even nailed the post card stands. Lol
It was nice that Rifle highlighted the older man helping the guy with the big mask.
Great video man, nice work.
Bro thank you for doing this video for all of us to see it , looks like you’ve had a awesome time doing it. Peace bro
As many bugs as this game has. Their recreations of real buildings are so spot on!
Ngl this whole event looks like the start of a swedish subtitle horror movie that won many indie awards at the sundance movie festival very cult-like.
I'm glad you finally got around to doing this video I've been waiting a long time for this since you first teased it
I appreciate you giving people info about my wonderful state, thank you from St. Albans, WV
Just switched my smile account to them, hopefully, it will help.
Amazing how much attention to detail was put into the game when seeing the real life Helvetia in your video. I would help my son get around 'The Division' because the game emulated Manhattan so well that I could recognize buildings and give him 'shortcuts' around the city so he didn't need the map so much. Nice to see that in FO76 as well.
This is my favorite event in FO76. I had no idea how realistic the buildings are. What a neat little town. Great work Rifle Gaming! Thank you for raising awareness. I will absolutely donate to the town that has brought me so much virtual fun...and hope to make a road trip in 2022! Update: made the road trip in summer 2022. It did not disappoint! Had lunch and walked the town with a couple of FO76 buddies of mine. I highly recommend making the trip!
Grew up in WV.. Love the people & how friendly everyone is .. Been to helvetia & ate at the hutte .. Delicious food. It is a small town .. Blink & u pass it by , but many small towns are that way in wv .. Thx 4 the upload & glad you enjoyed your trip
Donated. Awesome video! Thanks for shining a spotlight on this awesome event and town!
This is awesome. My wife has a PhD in Germanic Studies and was impressed and amused with the recreation of the Helvetia location in Fallout 76. Btw, it's great living in a country free enough to allow a town to be named after and celebrate the culture of another region of the world-- flags and all.
Amazing work Rifle. Event coverage like this keeps these events from fading away.
Very cool 😎 👍 love the death claw mask :-p I will do the Amazon smile thing forsure!
So cool how you actually went there I'm def gonna use amazon smile!
I absolutely love the video and will hopefully attend sometime! Thank you Rifle for your patience and awesome vids!
Thanks Rifle! Some of us are looking into going next year thanks to your previous mention and clips from this. Happy Merry Fasnacht!
I donated really easy. Keep up the good work rifle
Commenting again then ^^ want to support this great video! I sent a donation to Helvetia, it wasn't a lot but I hope it helps out and gets something starting! Great video Rifle keep up the wonderful work!
Thank you so much for making this video. I know a lot of time and effort went into putting it together. I live in south eastern Ohio and often travel to WV for work. I am an Archaeologist but had never heard of Helveta or Fasnacht until playing Fallout 76. Your video is awesome and does a great job of showcasing how much historical and cultural research went into making this game. It is amazing how accurate Bethesda recreated the historical architecture and lay out of the town. I plan on visiting Helvetia the next time I am near there for work. I want to checkout the restaurant and the general store.Thank you again for another great video.
Thank you for making this. I didn’t think about this being a real event! Love seeing the places I run around and jump on during this event. I will donate to this 💕
It is incredible how Bethesda got it so perfect to real life. I am for sure going to donate some money to Helvetia and visit Helvitia some time in the future 😄🇩🇰
This is so cool! I think my wife and i are going to try to get out there next year or do a fallout 76 honey moon in WV
Fasnacht was the thing I was most excited for in 76. As soon as I got into Beta, I made a bee line for Helvetia and was devastated to find no masks there. I stopped playing after Beta until a few days ago, and I've been playing the Fasnacht event every chance I get. I've wanted to go to the real life Fasnacht for years; I'm just under 3 hours away (across the river from the real life Camden Park), but I'm a shut-in with severe social anxiety, so I always put it off. This video makes me feel much more prepared. Thanks for this! I also set up Amazon Smile for Kultur Haus; thank you for showing us how to do that too!
I live about a hour away from Helvetia,it's a awesome place to go visit! Thanks for doing a video on this and trying to help them out,they're great folks! There's a lot of tourist attractions not far from there too!
We should push for 6k likes. I'm new to FO76 and Rifle has helped me so much with farming and useful information in general. Keep up the hard work!
This is an very interesting video!!!
I will definitely one day go to Helvetia. I seems to be an really cool place!!
I unfortunately can't donate to them BUT I hope that this re upload o the video will catch allot of attention and in some shape or form help the people of Helvetia. 😁
I was planning to watch this video for years. Now was the time.
What happiness and fun! I'm glad you were there and then spread the joy with this video!
Thanks for reposting! When I tried to watch original on ROKU TV, I was sad that it wasn't available. Really enjoyed watching the re-upload. Wife and I planning on going to Fasnacht now as we are moving to Ohio soon.
I’m close enough and think I’ll be there next year....really cool.
I'd love to go there dressed up sometime in the next year it happens. That'd be dope.
Thank you for this, absolutely fascinating to see Helvetia IRL, from the UK
You're so awesome thank you for sharing! I definitely will support YOU and this town I frequent in game. Awesome video. Keep them coming!
TO HELVETIA: You guys are so cool! I wish I could go there for the Fasnacht, but considering the current times....I really can't but I will try to go there next year! If any of you guys from there see this, what kinda mask are you supposed to create? is it anything freebie make anything you want kinda thing? Or is it specific?
Nice work, love seeing the real place that I play daily. Crazy how art imitates life.
Awesome video! I think this just sold me on actually making the trip next year. Thanks!
Be great to build an outdoor stage under a tent for this. This would be amazing as a Fallout community yearly party as a bigger festival. Looks like a lot of potential fun.
PS That food is not expensive for real food like that.
本物の場所でフォールアウト76のファスナハトをやってくれてる！
すごい！！
それにしても、フォールアウト76は再現度が高い。建物の大きさは少し違うけど、ロケ地そのまま❤
Dang, I should maybe go set up a camp down there, anyone wanna come too??
Nah I'm gonna slam a survival tent in the middle of the road by the church
Add me to team so I can travel there free pls
Great job! You're by far my most favorite fallout youtuber. Thank you for your hard work on the video. I cant wait to one day experience the event myself. 💛
I come from a town in Ohio that is fairly small itself. We have our own little festival at the start of fall in October, so this video really reminded me of that. I'm so glad rifle made this video. The quality of the video is incredible. This video made me really want to preserve this incredible tradition and I hope that it does for others as well.
Random thought; you should set send some of the ad revenue to Helvetia, I'm sure this video will get huge and definitely help you and the community of Helvetia.
Re-liked, shared here, on FB and TW. :D
This is an AWESOME video. It really made me smile. Thank you. You seem like a really good human being.
Dropped you a like, love all of your vids. This looked like a lot of fun, thanks for sharing your Fasnacht celebration experience!
Thanks so much for doing this! I love all the real life stuff I have learnt about WV from FO76. I'd really love to visit there one day. I donated US$20 to them to help. Cheers from New Zealand.
I never knew this was real
Thanks for reuploading, love your videos very informative keep up the awesome work
Great job on the video, we enjoyed getting to see the real life celebrations and were amazed how similar the 76 Helvetica is to the real life town. Keep the great content coming Rifle.
Wasn't this posted yesterday?
It got corrupted, he had to re-upload it, he did a whole video explaining what happened
Yeah, it was. I remember seeing super early this morning on twitter that he was having trouble with it, and I guess it got corrupted
This is a comment to make the video more popular
Great video, man!! Appreciate your hard work!
These videos are so amazing. I love the time and effort you spent making them and it really made 76 come alive. Seeing where Bethesda uses as background is always enjoyable to see. I hope the people of the town are doing ok since I notice this video was before the pandemic.
Why did you reupload ?
Also, Hand over your caps, nice and slow.
Video corrupted
Hahaha...
Raider recognize raider. Bahaha
At last Bethesda got something right by including fasnacht in fallout 76'such a cool event,even better now I know it's a real festival.gotta go there someday....
Ive been there, but only briefly.
Thanks for this man. Good stuff!
Dude, this is awesome! I'm pretty new to the game and I'm learning alot. Definitely gonna make a donation!! Thanks for this
Well they will be getting a recurring donation from me. I'm going to do all my subscribe and save through amazon smile now to donate to them.
This is looks like a bethesda cosplay party tbh.
Looks like quite an amazing trip… Love the content keep it up man !!!!
You have very quickly became one of my favorite RUclipsrs. I’ve been watching you videos on my breaks at work for the past couple weeks. Keep up the good work and I’m sorry about your video corrupting. ❤️
