I also met Phil LaMarr!! He's the Voice of Samurai Jack and man. That meant so much to me. I actually wasn't allowed to watch the show as a kid, and got into it during my freshman year of college. Which was, to put it lightly, a really turbulent time in my life. I told him all this and he nodded sagely. "Oh yeah, because of the violence?" "No, because it was trippy as hell." And he laughed at that! And the fact that I made him laugh is still so precious to me. He signed a print with "Fight, Ashi, Fight!!" That I have hanging by my desk. And here I am, Applying for grad school!
If only you knew how bad he really is, like most celebrities. Phil enjoys double standards, he can voice a Japanese man when he's not one, but he was against Cleveland's original VA because he was a white man voicing a black character. Never learn about your favorite VAs irl, the magic will die and be replaced with disappointment.
Can we talk about how much effort, drawing, and editing went into these off-the-wall bits? We honestly got so much more than we expected and it's an incredible time
I *really* wish Cartoon Network would release, like, a private server legacy file for this game so people could play it on their own. Running around using a guitar to blast time travel aliens while Eddy used science fantasy magic to help me seemed so cool but I didn't have a computer for it as a ... teen...
OpenFusion, the revival/preservation of the original FF that's being played in this video, has support for you to run your own local servers you can play with your friends via a service like Hamachi! Alternatively you could play on OpenFusion's own servers like in this video.
@@gammaradiation9839 along with this, there's a program called Flashpoint that let's you play old online games. There's a completely single player version on there which requires no internet connection after downloading!! Hope this helps
That’s cool. Though certain Cartoon Network shows never in the game like Regular Show and Steven Universe ( Even though I was severely disappointed in that show) wonder if the server adds exclusive features in the game.
@@jmachero5852 Regular Show and Steven Universe were kinda right at the cut-off for newer shows getting some content in-game besides Regular Show getting Nanos. Though either way, that content would've been probably quite low quality either way. OpenFusion server's are there for preservation of how the games were so there's not really any exclusive content or features compared to how the game was besides command-access on local servers (which unrelated side-note: Flashpoint basically just uses a local server so you can set up a singleplayer version the same way). If you're looking for any new content/updates to the original game you're better off playing Retrobution, a project unaffiliated with OpenFusion using their server software to rehost a previous fan revival of FusionFall, FusionFall Retro, which added new content and updates to the game with Retrobution adding some of it's own changes as well.
The Chowder experiences war and Johnny Bravo has ptsd segments reminded me that I need to see if Scoob & Shag has new chapters. I HIGHLY recommend others to read it if you don’t mind the horror elements because it gets insane in the best way possible with its cartoon cast.
"Radda radda." "No Schnitzel, we are not going to deploy chemical weapons." "Radda radda radda!" "I don't care if it makes things easier, I said no!" "Radda." "Schnitzel, you know we both see the Geneva conventions as Geneva suggestions, but it's too dangerous to just coat the place in agent orange!"
I remember when Fusion Fall was first getting teased online and me and my old school mates were so confused seeing anime versions of all our favorite CN characters. I have a faint memory of the plot where one of the PPG is MIA and its written really serious or something lol. There was even a teaser comic for it.
IT WAS BUTTERCUP!!! she had an evil variant who was integral to the plot and had a cool alternate design and everything too!! she was definitely my favorite part of playing this game as a kid lol
This gave me the idea of Johnny Bravo but with ptsd, where every time he flexes it's just a short ptsd attack, and instead of grunts it's heart piercing screams.
In all honesty, I’d love to see a reboot/sequel to FusionFall. If Learning With Pibby is anything to go off of, post-apocalyptic crossovers are still popular, and I could easily imagine it working still. They have an entire catalog of franchises from Hanna-Barbera, Cartoon Network, and Adult Swim, so they have a steady supply of content. Also, Johnny Test could wield a whip like he’s Simon Belmont.
Check out Saturday Morning Invasion, sounds right up your alley in terms of FF-based fan projects! Alternatively you could play an expansion of the original game through Retrobution which is a modified hosting of a previous fan revival of the original game FusionFall Retro.
@@connorbeith3232 The original developers didn't add any NPCs but they did add references. The Hana-Baba Temple Infected Zone is a reference to Hanna-Barbera Studios as well as pillars in the Ruins have engravings of HB characters into them. There's also an unused Scooby Tail item in the game that's only able to be gotten through commands. The original Retro remade it and made it a earnable item though and you can get it in Retrobution.
Honestly, agree. I've had the mind for awhile that licensed property video games could be decent and competent, dare I say maybe even good, if big media properties dedicated some time and money, as well as maybe a small but dedicated indie games studio, into them, as opposed to slopping out shovelware trash where the only hook is trying to get kids to make their parents buy the game because it has characters they like. Lowkey a spin off franchise of games set in the FF universe with a steady supply of games that really would only have to be visually cool and somewhat fun and not total butt to play would probably develop a decent fanbase. Of course, I'd like to hope that in such a scenario, the proposed games could be better than fun enough and not total hot garbo visually and mechanically, but as it stands even that low bar would put them above most licensed cartoon video games.
Honestly, I'm wondering if Pibby wasn't at least in some way inspired by FF's plot; a combined multiverse/world of cartoon characters that is suddenly infested with something beyond their understanding, resulting in a situation where even the most dense or villainous characters get the memo that it's either rally with the heroes, or die. Hell, if I remember right, there's even strong implications (you had to dig for) in the original plot of FF (When your character is sent forward in time accidentally by DeeDee, I believe at some point you make it back and stop that from happening, fixing the timeline) that some of the characters DIED in the first waves of the invasion, I recall Johnny Bravo and I thiiink Double-D and Edd possibly being amongst the casualties. But that could me completely misremembering parts of the plot to a game released nearly two decades ago.
So glad the storyboard for the lost Chowder Fusion Fall special, known only as "Food War"*, has been found and displayed for the world to see here on the funny saltman's channel. P.S. Super excited for Friendlocke S4 E1 (Uncut){Live} *[a clever bit of wordplay by the writers, referencing the phrase "food fight"]
Fun fact: this game had a spinoff called Fusion Fall: Heroes. From what I remember, it was basically if you took the concept of fusion fall and then combined it with League of legends and Gacha.
5:52 That line about the Academy being unstable back in the day is no joke. FusionFall back in the day was pretty unstable, especially with the new content that they added. If memory serves they winded down development and transferred it over to a smaller team or something, which probably was a big contributor to the overall quality of the new content. The game still had a habit of crashing before the new updates, but things definitely got more unstable from there.
You remember the sanitized version. What happened is the development studio in Korea that was contracted to create it went bankrupt and didn't tell CN. They stopped working on it -- BUT KEPT ACCEPTING PAYMENTS. They'd have a representative show up for meetings and stuff, but they basically didn't get anything done. In the end there was a mad scramble to save the development assets and bring them in-house so the game wouldn't just die right there.
What a blast from the past, and crazy how small the world is. I was just thinking about this the other day lmao. Definitely some good and weird memories from this game. Great video Salty!
Bloo with PTSD:...my mind is imaginary, but the blood shed...the pain...the agony...they all reign real in my memories...this house used to home imaginary friends...now it homes imaginary friends...and a monster....*fosters home for imaginary friends theme continues playing*

The drawn scenes such as at 12:31 need to be turned into their own apocalyptic universe with tv show characters. (And yes, the scenes described would happen in it.)
The closest thing I can recall is the webtoon Scoob and Shag. It has war, friendship, betrayal, Kermit smoking a joint, gore and horror, and fascinating world building. It also has a cast from classic and childhood cartoons.
Absolutely dying at the bits with chowder and Johnny bravo that were drawn. I could literally watch Derek lorecraft these hilarious scenarios for hours-
FusionFall was my first ever MMORPG, and despite it being weird looking, it was really fun for me! except the time i was exploring and somehow ended up trapped in an area where enemies are all way higher level and generally would one shot me. i basically had to beg for in game cash to get my ass back to the early game locales to be able to play normally again.
@@legendofhayden glad to know it wasn't just me getting stuck. but seriously, i had to beg for money in game. and then i had to figure out how the heck i was gonna get a new weapon because yes, at that point I'm 99% sure i had given my weapons to others for money.
Wow, I seriously thought that Johnny bravo incident was going to divulge into a "dragin' these balls" joke. I genuinely wasn't expecting this to be an actual thing that happened...
I would listen to Salty and Dollip build up this alternate version of this game where all of these non-serious characters leading a full scale war and dealing with trauma, those drawings were incredible too.
I can’t hear the term ‘massively multiplayer online role-playing game’ without thinking ‘oh this is a sponsor’ because of how many mobile game sponsors there are on youtube
Honestly, Dollip and Salty made for such a great comedic duo. I hope we see more with the two of them, or who knows, maybe Dollip could be part of the next Friendlocke
You found it!!!!! thank you saltydkdan for finding the hell cut of the benten season 1 finale, ive been looking for it for years but cartoon network has been trying to cover it up for years! god speed
In all honesty, FusionFall should have made a crossover collection of the short lived Codename:KND online game before they pulled the plug. I always liked the helmet design from Codename:KND because looking back on it, it looks like something you would see in a sci-fi anime then it does a kids show about stopping super villain adults.
I still get goosebumps at the characterization of Chowder throughout the entire arc. By the end, you sympathize with him as you recognize the war has completely shattered his hope and innocence, and probably left him shell shocked and mentally disturbed for the rest of his life, and yet you still have to recognize how commiting himself to the war effort for the sake of protecting Marzipan City slowly erroded his ethics, morals, and empathy until he eventually commited atrocious and unforgivable war crimes as he viciously tortured, demonized and othered his perceived enemies, and eventually slaughtered mass villages of innocent bystanders and victims of the war who weren't on the front lines en masse. By the end, Chowder was a victim, but he wasn't a hero and his crimes can't be forgiven if we're being objectively honest about his actions.
I never got to play Fusion Fall when I was younger, but watching this makes me think I would've liked it. Someone made a comic that's kinda similar to this called Scoob and Shag, except it also has a bunch of characters from Nickelodeon and Disney. Wanna read Courage and Swiper getting into some sort of relationship while Inspector Gadget and Gerald try to fight a mutated Clone JFK? That's the comic to read.
The whole joke about cartoon characters being in a war is pretty much the plot of a webcomic called Scoob and Shag. It starts out as a pretty unfunny comedy comic, but over time it turns into this Shonen Anime with various cartoon charatcers fighting in this huge war. Also, everyone has a power called a Ballyhoo, which is basically a Superpower based around some kind of animation or TV pun. There's also some body horror in it at points. It's genuinely one of the most insane things i've ever read, and it's still ongoing!
i love her voice tbh. the best vocal training outcome i have heard in years. took me a minute to realize she was the one who did the sonic(?) parts in the snapcube RTfandub of sonic games. she's the short one from the crew. think last time i saw her was when jschlatt did the whole vomit vid. i will never recover from swagger vomiting blue goo through the helmet
They made a spin off called fusion fall heros and while it was not popular it was tied to the universe but I think the reason it failed was because of it being like a moba.
@@busa1951 The only 'lore' FusionFall Heroes had was that the heroes were taking the fight to Fuse directly. So it is canon to FusionFall, but the game's world never changed based on the missions you did outside of the game's tutorial, so it doesn't really contradict anything. Heroes actually had some characters not in the original FusionFall like Garnet from Steven Universe and Fiona from Adventure Time, so I guess it had that going for it. I know Project Exonaut was a thing, but I don't remember if it was connected to FusionFall, nor do I remember any of the lore behind that game.
Honestly, free MMOs peaked in the late 2000s. I remember spending many hours on the family computer playing Fusion Fall, Free Realms, and Wizard 101. Really wish I could go back to those days and play them. I could probably find an emulator or something, but it just wouldn't be the same.
the only things I remember about fusion fall is 1.) I really wanted to play it as a kid but never did and 2.) a vague memory of someone claiming that cartoon network made it to piggyback off the success of bleedman’s comics
I swear to god I need somebody to revive the online Chaotic Card Game like people have done for FusionFall and other games. 4Kids dragged that IP down with them and it was so much better than it had ANY right to be. Plus the show gave us sound bytes of Sonic the Hedgehog’s voice actor saying “Maxor!” In a variety of tones which I feel like could be exploited for shitposting purposes.
This game was my childhood, I still remember how I got to lord Fuse early by the clever MMO strategy of "Follow other dumb players and slip past the monsters while they were dying".
i LOVE FusionFall so much. a massive highlight of my childhood, crossovers were like my favorite thing ever as a kid so it was mind boggling to witness something like FusionFall
I remember when this was new, I would milk several hours into FF on weekends and holidays, bumping the JSRF soundtrack in the background while fighting fusion monsters or just roaming the massive open world.
I loved FusionFall. I was too young to understand or get far in it. But it was still so fun to me. I think it was made by a Korean company which is why it looked like an off-brand anime.
The Chowder War animatic had me dying! I couldn’t stop trying to do a Mungdal impression. I’d love to see an animation of a full stakes war but with Chowder characters and writing it’d be so stupid and hilarious.
Man, how did whoever created Eddy's design for FusionFall think that was even remotely passable, his design definitely takes the cake as the most cursed thing I've ever seen from this game.
I closely followed fusionfall legacy when that project was still around. They tried to make new content based on total drama and basically spelled the end of the project. They also had a classic revival for all of the content before the academy update.
Goddamn this game was my childhood, I miss it so much. The innocence of childhood mixed with the enjoyment of it that is, playing it an adult just doesn't have the same charm and wow-factor it did when I was 7.
I love how your videos run the perfect line between informative and completely entertaining. These new ones have been such a nice watch lately so the daily uploads have been amazing.
you are killing it with these videos, man. seriously. i saw the streams before, i hope you'd both play even more fusionfall together in the future, but if not i just hope to see you both stream together again soon :3
I wish there was an official “graveyard team” that companies could hand over their old mmo game assets to, maybe run some ads for minor returns, but done mostly for the community and legacy of the game. So, say the old Star Wars Galaxies gets an uptick in players due to the sequels, right? Then Disney could take notice and revive/remake the game or something. Or old versions of say, Maple Story. Maybe it would be a wake up call to let companies know that people prefer a certain iteration of that game, explaining why some players dropped off. If keeping the game alive is too hard, maybe have some sort of museum mode to showcase models, areas, animations, stories, and gameplay that was unique or beloved in-game. Also main story events.
Grim from that spoopy anime Cartoon Network show is my fav drawn character. 😢 Also: I remember watching Dragon Ball Z and eating poptarts in the morning before middle school :p
It's really weird to think about how so many shows we think are modern cartoon network like adventure time and the amazing world of gumball were in this
Those shows were added in through later updates, but yeah, ,it is weird to think that said shows got representation in a game this old. I think the newest shows to get representation were Steven Universe and Ben 10 Omniverse in FusionFall Heroes, so that gives you an idea of when FusionFall and such ended. Come to think of it, it's kind of depressing to think that Cartoon Network shows we consider 'modern' are actually that old. Makes you realize the drop in the amount of cartoons from the 2000s to 2010s to now.
@@flarestorm9417 wow, steven universe? It's weird to think a show that only ended a couple years ago was in the same game with Johnny bravo and such back in 2013
@@MarcusFigueras So, I was actually wrong about something in my original comment. Steven Universe doesn't have any representation in FusionFall or FusionFall Heroes. FusionFall Hereos released in March 2013, while Steven Universe first aired in November 2013, but no Steven Universe updates were made after the game released. Heck, I don't think FusionFall Heroes even got any post-launch content updates (the original was shutdown around the time Heroes launched if memory serves). Adventure Time (2010), Regular Show (2010), and The Amazing World of Gumball (2011) all got representation in the original FusionFall through updates made after the initial release. Ben 10 Omniverse (2012) was only represented in FusionFall Heroes, and I think it was the most recent show the game used. So I was little off, but I think the point still stands.
Definitely do check out Dollip, I've been watching her for years and she really is one of the most funny and infectious people entertainers out there. I remember watching this live and having an absolute blast! I hope y'all do another thing again soon!
god I was so normal about fusionall. I ate up every little bit of this convoluted nonsense lore. I loved the idea of nanos, of fusions, of nanos, of characters from different IPs interacting, just !! the trading community on Mt. Blackhead was so cool, there so many other little spots we used as hang out locations, some of the later mini-bosses with unique loot like the Blowfish and the Big Echo Echo were hunted for many many times.... So many good memories

@@legendofhayden glad to know it wasn't just me getting stuck. but seriously, i had to beg for money in game. and then i had to figure out how the heck i was gonna get a new weapon because yes, at that point I'm 99% sure i had given my weapons to others for money.
Wow, I seriously thought that Johnny bravo incident was going to divulge into a "dragin' these balls" joke. I genuinely wasn't expecting this to be an actual thing that happened...
I would listen to Salty and Dollip build up this alternate version of this game where all of these non-serious characters leading a full scale war and dealing with trauma, those drawings were incredible too.
it's so fucked up that vilgax is in eternal torment in every saltydkdan video he appears in
“War, war never changes”

I can’t hear the term ‘massively multiplayer online role-playing game’ without thinking ‘oh this is a sponsor’ because of how many mobile game sponsors there are on youtube
the angst fic section in the middle is the funniest fucking thing ever don't change derek
Honestly, Dollip and Salty made for such a great comedic duo. I hope we see more with the two of them, or who knows, maybe Dollip could be part of the next Friendlocke
You found it!!!!! thank you saltydkdan for finding the hell cut of the benten season 1 finale, ive been looking for it for years but cartoon network has been trying to cover it up for years! god speed
i think the correct term for Nanos is
**🧐CHIBI🧐**
I'm almost finished this video and I still can't get over the fact that Salty made a Garfield gets real reference
It's actually Garfield's Funfest with the water that makes you funny, all these fake Garfield fans that don't know the lore SMH
Irwin impressions are back on the menu boys!
In all honesty, FusionFall should have made a crossover collection of the short lived Codename:KND online game before they pulled the plug. I always liked the helmet design from Codename:KND because looking back on it, it looks like something you would see in a sci-fi anime then it does a kids show about stopping super villain adults.
God the Marzipan War arc of FusionFall was a wild ride...
I still get goosebumps at the characterization of Chowder throughout the entire arc. By the end, you sympathize with him as you recognize the war has completely shattered his hope and innocence, and probably left him shell shocked and mentally disturbed for the rest of his life, and yet you still have to recognize how commiting himself to the war effort for the sake of protecting Marzipan City slowly erroded his ethics, morals, and empathy until he eventually commited atrocious and unforgivable war crimes as he viciously tortured, demonized and othered his perceived enemies, and eventually slaughtered mass villages of innocent bystanders and victims of the war who weren't on the front lines en masse. By the end, Chowder was a victim, but he wasn't a hero and his crimes can't be forgiven if we're being objectively honest about his actions.
I never got to play Fusion Fall when I was younger, but watching this makes me think I would've liked it. Someone made a comic that's kinda similar to this called Scoob and Shag, except it also has a bunch of characters from Nickelodeon and Disney. Wanna read Courage and Swiper getting into some sort of relationship while Inspector Gadget and Gerald try to fight a mutated Clone JFK? That's the comic to read.
Scoob and Shag is so good
It took me a minute to realize dollip was marble! I totally missed her rebrand, love her humor!
The whole joke about cartoon characters being in a war is pretty much the plot of a webcomic called Scoob and Shag. It starts out as a pretty unfunny comedy comic, but over time it turns into this Shonen Anime with various cartoon charatcers fighting in this huge war. Also, everyone has a power called a Ballyhoo, which is basically a Superpower based around some kind of animation or TV pun. There's also some body horror in it at points. It's genuinely one of the most insane things i've ever read, and it's still ongoing!
I feel like ballyhoo is sorta like a Jojo Stan for cartoon characters, since it's also puns but music.
@@staticsoul I'd compare it more to a Quirk if anything.
The whole Cartoon Network war bit is basically just the comic Scoob and Shag.
Imagine how interesting things would’ve gotten had Steven Universe become part of FusionFall.
i love her voice tbh. the best vocal training outcome i have heard in years. took me a minute to realize she was the one who did the sonic(?) parts in the snapcube RTfandub of sonic games. she's the short one from the crew. think last time i saw her was when jschlatt did the whole vomit vid. i will never recover from swagger vomiting blue goo through the helmet
Bit late, but Dollip actually voiced Jet the Hawk in the Riders dub!
They made a spin off called fusion fall heros and while it was not popular it was tied to the universe but I think the reason it failed was because of it being like a moba.
Was there any lore or was it just a spin off? Also wasn't Project Exonaut also connected to Fusionfall?
@@busa1951 The only 'lore' FusionFall Heroes had was that the heroes were taking the fight to Fuse directly. So it is canon to FusionFall, but the game's world never changed based on the missions you did outside of the game's tutorial, so it doesn't really contradict anything. Heroes actually had some characters not in the original FusionFall like Garnet from Steven Universe and Fiona from Adventure Time, so I guess it had that going for it. I know Project Exonaut was a thing, but I don't remember if it was connected to FusionFall, nor do I remember any of the lore behind that game.
@@busa1951 Strangely enough there was another CN robot game called TKO, though that was a fighting game.
Honestly, free MMOs peaked in the late 2000s. I remember spending many hours on the family computer playing Fusion Fall, Free Realms, and Wizard 101. Really wish I could go back to those days and play them. I could probably find an emulator or something, but it just wouldn't be the same.
salty needs to do more Ed Edd and Eddy impressions omg
Oh my gosh, what part of my hippocampus have you broken into Salty.....
the only things I remember about fusion fall is 1.) I really wanted to play it as a kid but never did and 2.) a vague memory of someone claiming that cartoon network made it to piggyback off the success of bleedman’s comics
5:33 IS THAT THE TEENAGE ROBOT GIRL? Daaaamn...
I wasn't ready for a second helping of Irwin Impressions after all these years and I'm thankful
I swear to god I need somebody to revive the online Chaotic Card Game like people have done for FusionFall and other games.
4Kids dragged that IP down with them and it was so much better than it had ANY right to be.
Plus the show gave us sound bytes of Sonic the Hedgehog’s voice actor saying “Maxor!” In a variety of tones which I feel like could be exploited for shitposting purposes.
BRO THANK GOD SOMEONE ELSE REMEMBERS CHAOTIX!!
This game was my childhood, I still remember how I got to lord Fuse early by the clever MMO strategy of "Follow other dumb players and slip past the monsters while they were dying".
Fusion Fall was a game I could’ve played but never did. Also love the references to Garfield gets real, pair of kings, and the Cartoon Network shows
i LOVE FusionFall so much. a massive highlight of my childhood, crossovers were like my favorite thing ever as a kid so it was mind boggling to witness something like FusionFall
I remember when this was new, I would milk several hours into FF on weekends and holidays, bumping the JSRF soundtrack in the background while fighting fusion monsters or just roaming the massive open world.
I loved FusionFall. I was too young to understand or get far in it. But it was still so fun to me. I think it was made by a Korean company which is why it looked like an off-brand anime.
12:32 idk why but i really like how johnnys drawn here who did that
The Chowder War animatic had me dying! I couldn’t stop trying to do a Mungdal impression.
I’d love to see an animation of a full stakes war but with Chowder characters and writing it’d be so stupid and hilarious.
I've played this game and created Toon Wars, and I can confirm Dexter and Double D have committed war crimes. KO wouldn't know. He wasn't there.
Man, how did whoever created Eddy's design for FusionFall think that was even remotely passable, his design definitely takes the cake as the most cursed thing I've ever seen from this game.
Had I been aware of this game back when I was in it's target audience I just KNOW I would've had the biggest dumbest crush on anime-ified Dexter
Ahh man... War Crimes... My Favourite! Added with a Cutesy Cartoony flair? EVEN BETTER!
I closely followed fusionfall legacy when that project was still around. They tried to make new content based on total drama and basically spelled the end of the project. They also had a classic revival for all of the content before the academy update.
Saltydkdan and consistent upload schedules mix together as well as ketchup and peanut butter. An unexpected but pleasant surprise
I still remember the night were cartoon network put down boomerang. I haven't forgiven those bastards.
If i had a nickel for everytime i saw mungdal in a world war, id have 2 nickels. Which isnt alot but its still weird that its happened twice
that loading screen is AMAZING. I LOVE how they drew some of the characters.
Salty stop uploading daily your scaring us now
real
he'll dissappear for a year after this
Goddamn this game was my childhood, I miss it so much. The innocence of childhood mixed with the enjoyment of it that is, playing it an adult just doesn't have the same charm and wow-factor it did when I was 7.
I love how your videos run the perfect line between informative and completely entertaining. These new ones have been such a nice watch lately so the daily uploads have been amazing.
Fusionfall is probably my favorite MMO of ALL time, it has so much charm to it
you are killing it with these videos, man. seriously. i saw the streams before, i hope you'd both play even more fusionfall together in the future, but if not i just hope to see you both stream together again soon :3
I wish there was an official “graveyard team” that companies could hand over their old mmo game assets to, maybe run some ads for minor returns, but done mostly for the community and legacy of the game.
So, say the old Star Wars Galaxies gets an uptick in players due to the sequels, right? Then Disney could take notice and revive/remake the game or something.
Or old versions of say, Maple Story.
Maybe it would be a wake up call to let companies know that people prefer a certain iteration of that game, explaining why some players dropped off.
If keeping the game alive is too hard, maybe have some sort of museum mode to showcase models, areas, animations, stories, and gameplay that was unique or beloved in-game. Also main story events.
I love that the chowder thing is something they would actually do on the show if they had a bit more adult theming
FusionFall was such a big part of my childhood. I used to rewatch that opening so many times over just because of how epic it was.
Ah yes, you know you're gonna have a good time when cartoon and war crimes are in the title
Grim from that spoopy anime Cartoon Network show is my fav drawn character. 😢
Also: I remember watching Dragon Ball Z and eating poptarts in the morning before middle school :p
I fear this private server of the game will be gone now thanks to Derek talking about it and playing it
the chowder war segment is why everyone who watches this video needs to read scoob and shag
It's really weird to think about how so many shows we think are modern cartoon network like adventure time and the amazing world of gumball were in this
Those shows were added in through later updates, but yeah, ,it is weird to think that said shows got representation in a game this old. I think the newest shows to get representation were Steven Universe and Ben 10 Omniverse in FusionFall Heroes, so that gives you an idea of when FusionFall and such ended.
Come to think of it, it's kind of depressing to think that Cartoon Network shows we consider 'modern' are actually that old. Makes you realize the drop in the amount of cartoons from the 2000s to 2010s to now.
@@flarestorm9417 wow, steven universe? It's weird to think a show that only ended a couple years ago was in the same game with Johnny bravo and such back in 2013
@@MarcusFigueras So, I was actually wrong about something in my original comment. Steven Universe doesn't have any representation in FusionFall or FusionFall Heroes. FusionFall Hereos released in March 2013, while Steven Universe first aired in November 2013, but no Steven Universe updates were made after the game released. Heck, I don't think FusionFall Heroes even got any post-launch content updates (the original was shutdown around the time Heroes launched if memory serves).
Adventure Time (2010), Regular Show (2010), and The Amazing World of Gumball (2011) all got representation in the original FusionFall through updates made after the initial release. Ben 10 Omniverse (2012) was only represented in FusionFall Heroes, and I think it was the most recent show the game used. So I was little off, but I think the point still stands.
I like how interesting Fusionfall was even though I never played it before it lol.
Is this another step to the saltydkdan x Snapcube collab
Definitely do check out Dollip, I've been watching her for years and she really is one of the most funny and infectious people entertainers out there. I remember watching this live and having an absolute blast! I hope y'all do another thing again soon!
Stream content starts at around 2:40 for anyone rewatching who just wants to see the funny game
Fan revivals of these discontinued MMO's are awesome. I'm still having fun playing Toontown Corporate Clash to this day
Man I used to love FusionFall a lot, sad it got taken down again. There was this whole big team remaking the game, doing music and everything
god I was so normal about fusionall. I ate up every little bit of this convoluted nonsense lore. I loved the idea of nanos, of fusions, of nanos, of characters from different IPs interacting, just !! the trading community on Mt. Blackhead was so cool, there so many other little spots we used as hang out locations, some of the later mini-bosses with unique loot like the Blowfish and the Big Echo Echo were hunted for many many times.... So many good memories
wow, Salty didn't even name his character "JoJo" when presented with the option. he's so reformed.
who is gonna tell salty that the funny water thing was from garfield's fun fest and not garfield gets real?
