"Will you submit to hypnotic regression to your past life in ancient Egypt? Yes/No" is without a doubt the wildest pop up window I've ever been or will be presented with. I really wanna know what happens if you click no
Mmm... While there likely was some... uhh... probing happening, I suspect it wasn't quite this central to the building of the pyramids. I could be wrong, though, it's not like I was regressed into an ancient Egyptian life of mine.
There's also evidence to suggest the pyramids weren't built by slaves but by people who got paid a good wage, had decent housing, and were allowed days off.
But how could the primitive peoples of 2024 ever create an Ancient Aliens game? Could the game have an otherworldly origin? Ancient Astronaut theorists say.... yes
I love that even in the game they get the difference between "tenets" and "tenants" wrong. WTF are the "basic tenants of construction"? Resident contractors that drink soy lattes?
If the aliens came to us because their planet is in crisis from a cataclysmic event, does that mean their own planet has aliens that cause THEIR events?
We can't know for sure, but what if it were true? I don't see any evidence disputing that claim, so that makes it fairly likely. We definitely have something that we can't exclude as a strong possibility 👌
That whole "Work for us, and we'll help you defend against a cataclysm on your planet" had a real "Nice place you got here... It would be a shame, if something happened to it." vibe.
@@RonParkeryup. It's pretty, it stays pretty, it's rare so FOMO kicks in, and it can be made into lots of pretty shapes. There's no way we wouldn't end up loving gold
The show acting like the only logical way humans would want gold is because aliens is so funny. Definitely not because it doesn’t rust/tarnish and is extremely malleable and can be formed and used for electronics, tools, and even weapons. Of course jewelry just because pretty color that’s easy to shape into pretty shape (but also great for people with allergies like me) almost like it’s a very easy to use metal. But nooo aliens make us think rock is pretty
Yup. A lot of ancient astronaut theory hinges on dated, now-disproved science. Like Sitchen’s theory that Earth was the best source for gold, or the original Chariot of the Gods’s speculation that Egypt’s mummification was preparing a person for scientific resurrection similar to cryogenic preservation. We now know any hope of bringing a person back like that would involve stopping the brain damage that happens within minutes of death-and literally the first step of Egyptian mummification was scrambling and removing the brain through the nose.
"Plausible Deniability" as a resource is pretty neat tbh. It reminds me of how in Cultist Simulator you have to find ways to avoid/get rid of Suspicion or you'll attract unwanted attention. It's a intriguing concept, & definitely not something I expected from this game.
I remember playing this game on mobile. When the hair guy invited me to regression therapy to reveal a past life in which aliens manipulate humanity, I started to feel like Ancient Aliens is basically Scientology except without a good guy or a bad guy
Don't worry! If you dig deeper into alien conspiracies you'll discover that many of them do in fact believe that there are good guy aliens and bad guy aliens. The bad guy aliens tend to be the reptilians or the insectoids while the good guy aliens..... Well..... They're often referred to as "the tall whites" or sometimes even "the Scandinavians"........ Yeah, it's exactly as racist as it sounds lmao
It is. Both plagiarized from the same racist bullshit text, the same text the Nazis took from. It’s nothing but trying to gaslight people into submission; that we’re only of worth when we’re scrabbling at the feet of tyrants.
“Aliens enslave humanity to mine our planet for gold” is literally the premise of Battlefield Earth, a novel written by L. Ron Hubbard, which is just so fitting for an Ancient Aliens game
Sidenote, the way people see the goldfinger reference and immediately interpret it as a Jarvis reference instead is absolutely iconic. Legendary. Jarvis supremacy
The Jarvis Johnson Gooooooold. Is amazing. Also isn’t there a crap tone of gold in asteroids and stuff? Why would aliens come to earth where it’s rarer?
OMG we had the same tiny baby gamer Y2K butterfly dress!! I had the pink and also the blue dress. I remember them being vaguely itchy because of that weird transparent fabric layer and they also restricted any movements you’d make but overall they were a vibe
My husband and i were OBSESSED when this game came out. The only thing that sucks was it just....stops. The end. Otherwise its such a bizarre and wild ride 10/10 would absolutely recommend
"Will you submit to hypnotic regression to your past life in ancient Egypt? Yes/No" Alright. Move over, "Tap LB to throw the door at your enemies". Prostrate yourself, "Press F to pay respects". There's a new contender for funniest prompt in a videogame.
Oh sure, when ancient aliens has you experience the past lives of your ancestors to be manipulated by aliens it's ridiculous, but when Ubisoft does it, its "Assassin's Creed" and "okay, I guess"
Being "that guy", but to be fair, in AC, the Isa and the "Gods" might have influenced events, but most of the time Humans or Isa are still very much the ones changing history with their own hands. In fact, canonically, the digital gods get very annoyed everytime either the very human factions of Assassins or the Templars go off the reservation and do whatever the hell they want. Most of the "ancient aliens", on the other hand, explicitly outright states that Aliens are responsible for most of the greatest feats in the Africas... because being "that guy", most ancient alien conspiracies are just diet racism because people in Africa definitely absolutely couldn't make the pyramids at all or other large structures.
@@Gloomdrake Abstergo says it reconstructs stuff from DNA, but who knows? It could very well be a big hypnosis machine! It's all coming together now.... :D
My favorite fun fact about ancient aliens is that the narrator (not the host) voices a character in China, IL who is an ancient aliens believer trying to teach it at college and it's basically taking the piss so hard it's amazing that he's participating in it.
I'm currently in development for a PC game that kinda goes around similar ideas. The "Gods" of ancient civilizations are all actually aliens that are using humans. You start in the future and then time travel all the way back to Sumeria. You meet Gaia who is basically mother Earth and she creates all of these monsters like the hydra, kraken, werewolves, etc. It's a similar combat style to games like Diablo but also has RTS elements for building up cities. We actually emailed Giorgio to see if he would do some voice acting for us but he never got back to me lmaooo.
Mom's reminder worked. I've been watching these pure works of art for a while now, but didn't realise I wasn't subscribed all this time. They were already on my main recommendations so it never even occurred to me. Cheers!
I feel that a Chariots of the Gods strategy game would be neat. And yeah, the Plausible Deniability is an excellent idea for a mechanic, it could be a resource in so many urban fantasy settings.
Aliens wouldn't come to Earth to mine gold, it's one of the easiest elements to find in the universe, an average sun like ours has 2.5 trillion tons of liquid gold in a layer beneath it's surface, the Oort Cloud has even more than that in the ice & rocks of it's billions of asteroids. Coming to Earth to mine gold would be like a child going out of their way to pick up a dirty sucker covered in dirt and cat hair off the ground while they're in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory.
Many humans like gold because it’s shiny and pretty? Idk seems pretty valid, humans are weird and like things that don’t actually serve us a practical purpose for no particular reason
Ya, and its perceived value wasn't even universal. Many Native American tribes didn't value gold nearly as much, with its only real use being that it doesn't corrode and therefore can make good jewelry.
That in itself isn't very practical tho, i mean yeah it doesn't tarnish but then again how many times is gold actually used for making some practical tool? It's used to make jewellery which themselves serve no practical purpose other than fashion and decorative purposes@@Viteaification
Even before you mentioned Age of Mythology, I of course noticed the first note of the theme when you put the pyramid on screen. What an iconic game though, I still keep coming back to it (love the Norse faction!)

Half The Comments Here: I think we call all agree that our day is better when this person uploads a new video to this website/platform. Please make more content for us humans. I am definitely a real person and not a bot.
I was at a tabletop gaming convention a couple months ago and one of the games I wanted to try but never got the chance to was a 4X game called Anunnaki: Dawn of the Gods. The premise was that each player played as a different faction of aliens visiting Earth in early history, being worshiped as gods by the natives, and trying to conquer Atlantis. I thought the premise sounded delightfully goofy but it also looked like it took itself pretty seriously as a 4X game, so I hope I get the chance to play it someday.
I started to recognise pieces of this game as you went through and am now convinced I've played a little of it, but I have absolutely no recognition or memory of the introduction. It's so weird. Guess the aliens really did wipe my memory
Because of ad placement, I just had the Ancient alien spiel at 6:47 interrupted like so: "Did ancient aliens really help to shape our history? **Here's how much wet cat food I was buying...**"
Discovering this was originally a mobile game is extra funny to me because I’ve seen physical copies of it at a Walmart or Target or something. They made a PHYSICAL release for this game.
I'm sure hearing the Melee Character Select Screen menu music was nostalgic for many people but as someone who listens to it randomly at least once or twice a month it was more of a surprise to hear it here instead of a nostalgic thing
@@HemostatSAME! I have been going through SO many comments just feeling old af wondering how no one has seen that movie lol. I kept thinking I'd see someone like me but nope just another Jarvis comment 😂
Only five minutes in but...travel back to your past life in order to obtain answers from an ancient race in order to save the world from a upcoming world-ending event? Isn't that just the plot of the first few Assassin Creed games?
Imagine if this is how we tested Science. You're a grad student in the audience, some Meme points at you and BAM you're the first time traveler in human history.
There’s something I just love in that’s it’s unapologetically turning into a Gordon Ramsey and Ancient Aliens channel that’s lovingly trolling them, and I’m all here for it.
I wondered what this was. Seems like every Walmart in my area has at least one copy of AATG on good old-fashioned DVD-R in their game aisle. It feels like something that escaped the floor in 2004 and beamed into ... THE FUTURE.
I agree with your opening for everything except for one point. 45 minutes have passed? Absolutely not I start playing at 6:00 in the afternoon and next thing you know I hear birds chirping in the morning. But hey, you can't blame me. Baldur's Gate 3 and Dragons Dogma 2 are just too fucking good.
not the annunaki, i will never forget when i played the nancy drew game where she was helping out on an excursion in Egypt, and I was flabbergasted when Sonny Joons notes were all about aliens even in this place xD a wild trip and even wilder to realize that this actually something ppl theorize over ^^
it's kinda funny to me that it takes your alien-boosted slave minotaurs longer to build a pyramid than it does in Pharaoh, an older, much more complex game where you must employ arcane alien technology such as "make sure worker houses have a well nearby" and "try to make it so laborers get to see a funny guy do a little jig on their daily commute to work" maybe aliens just sucked at management sims? is that why we are like this?
Some of these graphics are lifted directly from Pharaoh. I recognized the house models instantly. I always knew those attacking Nubians were after my iridium!
... native tribes in Brazil couldn't care less about gold. It's literally documented how colonizers thought they were dumb for exchanging it for objects such as mirrors. Gold digging was one of the first and major activities from colonized brazil. SO WERE BRAZILIAN NATIVES NOT IN CONTACT WITH ALIENS??? HOW ABOUT PERU? INDIANA JONES CLEARY TELLS US ABOUT THEIR CONTACTS
Salt is way more widely valued across most cultures because it provides some nutritional value, keep food preserved, and attract animals like deer. There's lots of other uses too. Way better than gold
@@saraschu2735I mean gold is a useful metal. It doesn’t rust and it’s easy to mold. So things like electronics and medical tools (well any tools) it’s just a very easy to mold metal that doesn’t tarnish. I mean yeah for a tribe of course they don’t care about that as much as salt but it’s so funny how they just assume we think it’s pretty 😂 whole reason diamonds are popular for wedding rings isn’t because it’s the prettiest stone. It’s because it’s the hardest stone and can “last a lifetime”
@layladavis02 I wouldn't go that far as to say tribes in North and South America don't care about gold. Most groups preferred copper over gold, although I don't know as much about copper as I do salt. However salt is also highly valued in places that value gold, for example certain civilizations in Africa. Mansa Musa was famous for his gold but he also controlled lots of salt which helped secure his seat of power even after crashing the gold market when he gave too much away. Humans like gold because it's shiny and useful for sure but I think lots of folks may not know how many groups really value salt and still do. There's a reason it's on tables at restaurants and stuff. I just think salt is more interesting but I'm also an archaeologist / historian in North America where gold was and still is less of a priority for many cultures.
I finished the 2nd pyramid years ago and haven't been able to log into the game since. I figured they didn't finish developing it. Thanks for showing the ending!
Not that anyone needs to be dissuaded from "we like gold because of aliens" but it's really shiny and really soft- so its perfect for making jewelry and statues and stuff like that. Some cultures valued it as more than building materials and some didn't.
"how could people possibly make all this" they wonder. and then it's literally just people being enslaved for their entire lives becoming extremely skilled in their craft out of being forced to
"Will you submit to hypnotic regression to your past life in ancient Egypt? Yes/No" is without a doubt the wildest pop up window I've ever been or will be presented with. I really wanna know what happens if you click no
I must know what happens if you click "no"!

I thought the premise sounded delightfully goofy but it also looked like it took itself pretty seriously as a 4X game, so I hope I get the chance to play it someday.
0/10: no Canadian Laser Bears, no meteor chickens, no Fork Boy, no Bella, no hippos that WUV WOO.
(and thank you for reminding to play the new AoM)
i swear that the day you hit 500k i was watching a video and i saw it change. i was so hyped for you. You're hilarious.
Gabi is the only person who goes from talking about Tiktokification of emo music to alien game
was just thinking about how i needed more ancient aliens content from you!!
I started to recognise pieces of this game as you went through and am now convinced I've played a little of it, but I have absolutely no recognition or memory of the introduction. It's so weird. Guess the aliens really did wipe my memory
Because of ad placement, I just had the Ancient alien spiel at 6:47 interrupted like so: "Did ancient aliens really help to shape our history? **Here's how much wet cat food I was buying...**"
When do we get the hot chip video
The goldmember clip had me howling. Also the audacity of not finding out what happens if you click no after the hypnosis 😂
excited for that hot chip video, i love consuming misinformation
Discovering this was originally a mobile game is extra funny to me because I’ve seen physical copies of it at a Walmart or Target or something. They made a PHYSICAL release for this game.
Just when you thought Ancient Aliens couldn't get any more ridiculous....
YES MAN PROFILE SPOTTED
@@undeadsweetheart7508Join us friend...
You come off a very genuine person!
Keep up the good work! 💕
I'm sure hearing the Melee Character Select Screen menu music was nostalgic for many people but as someone who listens to it randomly at least once or twice a month it was more of a surprise to hear it here instead of a nostalgic thing
3:18 why is this the way i find the origin to jarvis’ gold channel’s intro
Man how old is everyone in these comments? Nobody ever watched Austin powers?
@@HemostatSAME! I have been going through SO many comments just feeling old af wondering how no one has seen that movie lol. I kept thinking I'd see someone like me but nope just another Jarvis comment 😂
I believe ur channel is like regulating my endorphins levels, tis chill content and edutainment w honesty & sympathy, thz
Only five minutes in but...travel back to your past life in order to obtain answers from an ancient race in order to save the world from a upcoming world-ending event? Isn't that just the plot of the first few Assassin Creed games?
Imagine if this is how we tested Science.
You're a grad student in the audience, some Meme points at you and BAM you're the first time traveler in human history.
I have no clue how I got here 4 seconds after its premiere, but I think it's a sign
The aliens did it
There’s something I just love in that’s it’s unapologetically turning into a Gordon Ramsey and Ancient Aliens channel that’s lovingly trolling them, and I’m all here for it.
I have a theory that the ancient alians crew are just the stargate-sg1 flavour of the harry potter millenials
As a Stargate fan, you may be right 😁
I wondered what this was. Seems like every Walmart in my area has at least one copy of AATG on good old-fashioned DVD-R in their game aisle. It feels like something that escaped the floor in 2004 and beamed into ... THE FUTURE.
I agree with your opening for everything except for one point. 45 minutes have passed? Absolutely not I start playing at 6:00 in the afternoon and next thing you know I hear birds chirping in the morning.
But hey, you can't blame me. Baldur's Gate 3 and Dragons Dogma 2 are just too fucking good.
not the annunaki, i will never forget when i played the nancy drew game where she was helping out on an excursion in Egypt, and I was flabbergasted when Sonny Joons notes were all about aliens even in this place xD a wild trip and even wilder to realize that this actually something ppl theorize over ^^
it's kinda funny to me that it takes your alien-boosted slave minotaurs longer to build a pyramid than it does in Pharaoh, an older, much more complex game where you must employ arcane alien technology such as "make sure worker houses have a well nearby" and "try to make it so laborers get to see a funny guy do a little jig on their daily commute to work"
maybe aliens just sucked at management sims? is that why we are like this?
They also had you make each colossal brick individually in pharaoh and then drag them into place in order one by one.
Some of these graphics are lifted directly from Pharaoh. I recognized the house models instantly. I always knew those attacking Nubians were after my iridium!
Age of Mythology has one of the best game soundtracks ever and is so underrated! Love the shoutout Gabi.
... native tribes in Brazil couldn't care less about gold. It's literally documented how colonizers thought they were dumb for exchanging it for objects such as mirrors. Gold digging was one of the first and major activities from colonized brazil.
SO WERE BRAZILIAN NATIVES NOT IN CONTACT WITH ALIENS???
HOW ABOUT PERU? INDIANA JONES CLEARY TELLS US ABOUT THEIR CONTACTS
Salt is way more widely valued across most cultures because it provides some nutritional value, keep food preserved, and attract animals like deer. There's lots of other uses too. Way better than gold
@@saraschu2735I mean gold is a useful metal. It doesn’t rust and it’s easy to mold. So things like electronics and medical tools (well any tools) it’s just a very easy to mold metal that doesn’t tarnish. I mean yeah for a tribe of course they don’t care about that as much as salt but it’s so funny how they just assume we think it’s pretty 😂 whole reason diamonds are popular for wedding rings isn’t because it’s the prettiest stone. It’s because it’s the hardest stone and can “last a lifetime”
@layladavis02 I wouldn't go that far as to say tribes in North and South America don't care about gold. Most groups preferred copper over gold, although I don't know as much about copper as I do salt. However salt is also highly valued in places that value gold, for example certain civilizations in Africa. Mansa Musa was famous for his gold but he also controlled lots of salt which helped secure his seat of power even after crashing the gold market when he gave too much away. Humans like gold because it's shiny and useful for sure but I think lots of folks may not know how many groups really value salt and still do. There's a reason it's on tables at restaurants and stuff. I just think salt is more interesting but I'm also an archaeologist / historian in North America where gold was and still is less of a priority for many cultures.
I finished the 2nd pyramid years ago and haven't been able to log into the game since. I figured they didn't finish developing it. Thanks for showing the ending!
"these are not real chapters lmao gotchuuuu" 💀💀
8:00 You monster! No one else in the village is going to believe that poor guy.
Gabo do the thug shake
6:00 The way Ancient Astronaut theorists feel about the Ancient people seems awfully familiar to how politicians view their -peasants- constituents.
😱 So, Ancient Humans learned to do SLAVERY from Aliens?!!
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
This brings me back to when it came out. Thats sound of collecting dna is burned in and plays during my sleep paralysis
Jarvis Johnson 7:14
I think what makes Tsoukalos so great is the fact that he loves what he does. How many people can HONESTLY say that?
The picture of her as lil kid too cute 🥰
My attention got pulled away from the video just before the fighter jet part, but that pulled me right back into the video.
Democracy can wait.
Balls
Gabi officially is my favourite youtuber after acknowledging aom.
I heard the music before. But still respect for the mention.
Not that anyone needs to be dissuaded from "we like gold because of aliens" but it's really shiny and really soft- so its perfect for making jewelry and statues and stuff like that. Some cultures valued it as more than building materials and some didn't.
6:38 I looked back at my tv hopping he would be there when you said gold lmfaooo perfect
I've been watching these all day and didn't realize i wasn't subscribed until your mom reminded me! That's so cute!!
"how could people possibly make all this" they wonder. and then it's literally just people being enslaved for their entire lives becoming extremely skilled in their craft out of being forced to
YOUR COMPUTER BACKROUND IS ON POINT!! IT MOVES AND IS PIXELLLL!!
