How swag 😎
It's my new sleep paralysis demon
NEAICE COAUCK
“swag boy” this made me laugh way to hard💀
kurtis says “sorry for talking so much” like we’re not here to watch him talk for 25 minutes
Like sir, I come here just to hear you. You are hilarious
i come to watch him talk for sometimes over an hour for the podcast 🙃
Literally
right
I got so excited to see if was a longer video :DDD
this game is inaccurate af. juliette would've most likely be torn to shreds by sway house fanatics due to the threat of a woman being present in an all-male entertainment group
True!!
8:33 I imagine One direction board game as a snakes and ladders, but without snakes. You know, cause only one direction

Kurtis should make a Kurtistown game that is literally just Sims City but every Sim has Kurtis’ face
I love that for you, bestie
Omg go off queen yesss
I would play that unapologetically.
That’s terrifying…
I love it 👍
and he is still the mayor and we still have to be nice to him b/c its the law :)
The update of this is *chef's kiss*
1. There is still only one episode over 6 months later
2. To release a second episode, they are now asking for 15k instead of 50 because their following has decreased to 5k
3. They lowered the subscription to 1.99 a week, so now you can save on the zero content that you're buying!
Do you have screenshots? 10 months after the video (4 months after this comment) still only one episode, they're still asking for 50k followers, currently sitting at 38.9k, and the subscription is the same cost (3.99/week)
@@SuzER08 idk I'm looking at it now from their Instagram and it's still 1.99 a week
@@windflowers9793 I don't see that anywhere, it looks like their insta hasnt been active since march, I just "played" through that actual game and it says $3.99
I HAVE had a baby (vaginally) and I can confirm their delivery of those lines was more painful to get through then child labor.

The most unrealistic part of the episode knockoff is that the sway house has fans their age.
Lmaooo true😂 All of their fans are literally 12
Fr the fan rage is like 12-14
@@fisusolina7315 🥾be gone bot
For real. I think it's pretty sick (the bad one) that they're charging €4 a WEEK when all their fans are minors, AND they only have about 5 minutes of gameplay available until the foreseeable future...
My theory is yes, they don't care which is why they don't advertise much, but also that the lack of advertising is somewhat strategic. Just a small bit. People are gonna be paying money week after week while they can get the rest of the game ready. I could be wrong though (but I do think it's a combination of this and them not caring).
[Edit to add: I also reckon that these people will be paying while they wait, and then when Sway have everything good to go they will advertise a little more to get more money and more regularly]
@@salomahoney2675 "I think it's pretty sick (the bad one)" Is fucking killing me
As a woman in her late twenties who is too old to know these influencers and doesn't watch them. They look like clones of one another. Lol
As a 17 yo girl in their prime targeted audience, I’m convinced it’s the same guy in a wig.
As a woman in her early twenties I still have no idea who these tiktokers are
“The next morning, you wake up to sounds of grinding metal…”
Slayer in her kitchen: 🎸🎸 🗣🎤
actually probably hanatarash. they drove an excavator into that poor girls kitchen
can we talk about how making a game about your fans dating you is one of the weirdest indulgences of unhealthy parasocial relationships? they know their public is mostly 10 year old girls who are attracted to them. making what is basically a dating sim about youself is bizarre at best
Couldn't have said it better
it’s a gross ego bost too
@@shizzlemywizzle1 right??? they’re so arrogant it’s embarrassing to witness
i literally didnt even think about it like that! apparently the Sway Game flew wayyyy over my head!

Oh totally, and I would never walk by that house without a knife and other people
And make sure you're not alone for good measure
okay petition for Kurtis to make a game called ‘kurtis town’ where it’s basically like animal crossing mixed w stardew valley and set in canada.
Omg yes‼️
yes.
The fact he called his fans *customers* is so telling. It's clear that the Sway house sees their audience as people just there to give them money.
Atleast its honest
I give him credit for honesty
freudian slips🙏🙏
@@vini_the_human That slipped out as he was bragging. Running his mouth and there’s the slip. If anyone asked him I’m sure he’d backtrack.
@lorien
I thought that was something only my brother says 💀💀
I love that the reason that they’ll possibly hit 50k is because we all want to see Kurtis play the rest of this game.
omg !! yeahhh! i was really invested like the writing at times wasn't bad, then it just stopped! like hey! i was intrigued and you just cock blocked me and kurt and all of us...@sway boyz, say you're sorry plz! >:(
that kind of sucks honestly
the tiktok account even posted a video addressing Kurtis’s video! lol
I knew Kurtistown would come in clutch😩
Imagine that was their plan this whole time 😂
I was in show choir and theatre in high school. I was great at facial expressions and stage energy. I wasn't the best dancer at all, but with practice, I managed to learn all the steps. And if I messed up, my enthusiasm covered it up.
Even beyond the stage, dancing was a big deal at my junior high and HS. Break dance circles after school, imitating the latest music videos, grinding and dropping it during school dances, knowing the steps to group dances (like Electric Slide or Cha-Cha Slide.) Being good at dancing was a point of pride. It earned you cool points.
I'm in my 30s now, but I bet dancing skills are still valued by today's teenagers.
So when I hear about TikTok dances, every single time I think, "Oh, this must be some cool choreography. Complicated or just looks really good. Lots of effort behind it."
And every time, I am disappointed.
im so sorry please dont think thats all teenagers do nowadays theres still some good in the world🤕
UPDATE for those curious. As of Feb 9, 2022, episode 2 is still not out. The account is at 40.9k followers. It’s been 4 months. That’s ~$50 of subscription fees for no additional content.
UPDATE. As of February 19, 2023 the TikTok account is no longer existing. Thank goodness.
kurtis’s mustache looks like two centipedes kissing and i can’t stop staring at it
Why does this not have more recognition, it’s scary true
don’t think it’s centipedes, more like caterpillars
I can’t unsee it now
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love wins
fun fact! sway is an acronym! it stands for:
S- growth
W-brotherhood
A-content
Y-creation
this makes more sense than this casting decision ruclips.net/video/b48eBBMYUcc/видео.html

Woah dude …
swroth, wotherhood, aontent, yeeation 🥰
But what IS he whisper/mumbling around 10:19: "first one to prudence talks to her first" - it's really hard to make out. ("First one in the pool gets to talk to her first?" Is that it?)
yes
2 years later and they still don't have 50k followers 💀
Sway Stories: 15.96$ per month

Hey, comrade. I just came across this video like two months after it released, and I’m really worried.
I just want to make sure…
You _did_ cancel your swayboy house thing game subscription, right?
Like, you haven’t been paying them this whole time, I hope.
Just a heads up. I know I’d forget and then find out in like two years that I’d been paying these scumbags tons of money.
Ok, cheers :)
what a comrade! Thanks.
Thanks comrade! Hope he sees this
He might've paid for 2 years man
Fun fact: if they don’t release the full game people can sue them for not supplying services since they are being charged. The fact that they charged for it opens them up to lawsuit
Lol
I’m so happy for Kurtis’ hands, they seem like such a happy couple.
Can't wait for them to *tie the knot*

Kurtis apologizing for talking “too much” in his own commentary video is peak insecurity and I can relate lol.
@dream team you’re making your mother cry
this is random but ur so pretty omg
his job is literally to talk and he feels bad for it :( can relate tho
so quirky
@dream team depends what you did
You obviously deleted your comment for a reason, don’t be brand new lmao
“where are the rest of my sway boys” and the “you good??” had me SCREECHING with laughter it’s been a bad few months thank you for this video lmao
I could’ve sworn there would be a “thats what she said” joke at 11:55
A content house is like a fraternity house, but you aren’t there for college, you’re there because you dropped from college
and it pays YOU lmfao 😭
How can you drop out if you don't go in the first place?
what's up with the replies above?? they also replied my comment like get out of here 😭
@@amandavergara8043 I swear to God, every time I get a comment is from one of those, like "Deep wet gapping Stephanie has replied to your comment" but is seems like RUclips is striking them down
makes sense lol
the sway house is basically my nightmare. “a frat house where all the frat bros are famous tiktokers” like I would genuinely rather die than have to be in that house for any amount of time
Understandable view but see it differently. You could steal a lot of their belongings and sell them on ebay. Make quick bucks, get out the house and rent a nice apartment.
@@ArturGlass.C i was about to say that, I guess we all think alike
@@lickvinegarkids3654 It's all about knowing how to make the best out of a shitty situation lmao.
it’s the two worst things alive combined
I think I would die on the spot if I entered the sway house
I almost joined this company a few months ago and all I can say is that I definitely got the impression that it was mostly working on cash grabs. Tech was actually interesting (I know it doesn’t look like it, but there is a reason they got a ton of cash).
I’m glad I didn’t join in the end, I wanted to get in the videogame industry, but not like this.
i dont know how to explain this, but watching kurtis’s videos while eating poptarts in the middle of the night hits different
Huh so it’s not just me
i’m glad he apologized for talking so much i was trying to get a word in the whole time
Lmao
this deserves more thumbs up lmao
this was good joke.
i laught
This feels like a comment drew gooden would pin
The whole time I was like "When is Ether going to get a chance to talk?"
This game is literally just a wattpat fanfiction but you have to pay money for it.
LOL and even with wattpad you still have to pay for some fanfictions ..
So like a wattpad paid story
Lol this game would have been fun if it was a “do you want to be an influencer” game where you have to do short videos with you character and you can earn in game money to buy clothes and views as well as save up for a nice house. You can create a squad which will be called the anything just like the sway house and real people who play the game can give you views, likes, and comments. I’d play that 😂
@@loopymomy2532 Girl you could literally create that! Its so smart you just came up with such an idea from the top of ur head
@@jarbincks6715 Totally. Too bad I'm not an influencer like the Sways. If i was, you know my game would be good. I always wanted to create my own game.
As a guy struggling to get a job for sound design in video games, when you said “I wish I could hear it”….. I felt that. I really felt that.
11:33 "I was stoked to get an invite to a sway house party! Yeah!" *screeches like a demon*
When Kurtis has probably played this game longer then everyone in the sway house combined

I was so happy for them 💀
what the sway house stands for:
Sgrowth
Wbrotherhood
Acontent creation

11:28 I think he said “first one in the pool gets to talk to her first”
kurtis should make a stardew valley style game called kurtistown where you play the mayor and have to take care of the town
i would buy that
10/10 would buy that
Ahahaha !!
Or maybe you get to play as a member of kurtistown, even a standard save the world story is gonna be amazing
YES
Plot twist- the Sway house was just one guy duetting himself over and over, in different variations of the same “cool-guy” wig. The proof is in the pic.
So that’s why I could never tell them apart?
🤔 it does seem a lil sus
This would actually be hilarious. It's the same freaking dude but somehow the Sway house STILL breaks up hahaha
Well I’m convinced
eh still better than all of Danny Gonzalez's deep fakes lol
15:12 that was 1/5 of an episode and they already expect money
I think the reason they always talk too quiet is because if they talk too loud they'll lose their "deep sexy sexy man" voice.
Kurtis's 70s porn stache and creed shirt transcends reality and distorts this simulation one joke at a time
💀 PLSSS
NOT FUCKING PORNSTACHE 😭😭😭😭😭
Agreed. Indeed. Lmao.
“We’ll see who she really be seein’…” The awkwardness of that statement lets me know he 100% doesn’t talk like that IRL
i was thinking this, made me cringe SO bad
I know I was like dude just...just dont...don't do that.
Omg I was looking for this comment!!
Can't stand when non-black creators use aave because of this. It's so forced and unnatural :/
time stamp someone???
14:32 the way Kurtis does Josh and Griffin’s voices is so funny 😂
10:07 you got me there, i wasnt expecting it
one direction could randomly release a line of literal dish soap and you know that stuff would be sold out within the hour
i would buy the dish soap ngl😵💫
i would buy ALL the dishsoap
I don't and have never consumed any type of One Direction related media but I would still buy that shit tbh
@@therealslimshitty5186 They could call it "The Soap of my life"
I know they’re not the same but I know for a fact JLS released a brand of protection. My sex Ed teacher brought them in during a session.
Their group lasted less time than the development of a cheap mobile game, rough
you know what else was a disaster? Chris Pratt being cast as Mario ruclips.net/video/b48eBBMYUcc/видео.html
That was actually a nice burn lol 😂
Oh wow, Pat watches Kurtis too?
Gotta love exactly TWO comments on a big Poketuber’s comment that doesn’t have a CLICK ME link. Bots man, f*** em.
spam bots are out in full force today huh
The sway boys sound like they're either speaking into a cup or whispering while their mom sleeps in the other room
12:50 NOOOO WHYYY I HAVE TO LEGALLY CHANGE MY NAME NOW. THIS NEVER HAPPENS PLEASE NO. DISGUSTING.
Kurtis' hands getting married reminds me of the time my little sister had a wedding for her kneecaps
This is an excellent comment
Yeah this is the best comment
i really like this comment as well
This is the comment ever
this is a special comment
at least episode has a character customization option. in this game you HAVE to be a pretentious, pretty, white girl who has a poc "sidekick" and falls for one of two near-identical white boys
Yep! Plus the community creators actually have interesting stories (AND NO SPENDING DIAMONDS) unlike these asswads.
Yeah in Episode you could customise anything! You can design the people your character will interact with, you can choose the gender of your love interest, you can also pick your body type and literally so many more to list!

@I Don’t Know They aren't saying Episode is perfect, they're just saying it's much better than the Sway House's cheap knockoff. Weird as hell to call someone gross for something so trivial.
that sway boy game is literally every 2000-2010 disney live action movie ever

Watching this video is 2023 is SO FUNNY because they STILL never got to 50k followers, they actually went down to 5k for an embarassingly long time, and then decided to start posting memes in hope of winning people over, when it’s all just facebook jokes that they edited their charecter on. Thankfully they stopped posting in 2022 and have saved my eyes from seeing any more 🙏
2023 and it still hasn’t reached 50k
This whole, pay for the game membership indefinitely until we maybe put out another chapter or delete the app (Especially when the main followers are kids) feels kinda illegal somehow… At least like super scummy.
