William Kasten is like a genie but instead of rubbing a lamp and making 3 wishes you find him morphing into your buisness offices and dissipating leaving behind fully voice acted max dialogue and a half-eaten bag of pistachios. Now that I think about it that’s not very genie-like.

Fun fact about Brock and ash’s connection, Ash says that Brock is an old family name in the 2015 Evil Dead show, it’s revealed that Ash’s dad is named Brock. I have no idea if this a coincidence, or if they thought of that connection while writing the show

The only disappointing part of this video is the clip used for Steve's party bazooka wasn't the Brock Samson version purely because of Brock's reaction.

@@clydenorthrup5484 It wasn't even pummeling. Samson stands up calmly and walks straight towards Steve. Steve runs off and Samson calmly changes course to follow until both are offscreen. No noise of struggle. No screams. Just your imagination filling in the blanks far better than the devs ever could.

To be honest I entirely forgot of the existence of Gotham City Impostors, a game i havent played since the 360 was the most recent game console. I miss it so much, and remember how bad i was at it.

Hey, nice timing. I just finished my rewatch of Grayfruit's Poker Night streams, so I'm glad to see this so soon. Well done on both videos.

Sam and Max is one of my favorite Telltale games, I just love the surreal and cartoonish atmosphere it has.

Okay, but when are we gonna hold an actual poker tournament? You, me, and any other Poker Night content creator who aren't cowards. I'll take on all of you, any time, any place! Great video, worth the wait in every regard. And I am honored to have offered my voice to such a project, I would love to come back on the next video on Poker Night 3- oh... right

The day has come! Thanks for letting me be a part of this.

Cool to see Grayfruit mentioned as a thank you. His PN content is one of my constant rewatches. To be fair I probably never know of this game if it weren't for him, and it's one of the first things I watched of his channel.

I love how most people's immediate assumption when hearing Warner Bros. is the old Hanna Barbera and Looney Tunes characters.

Got a mild hyperfixation on the game series earlier this year and wrote a sequel called "UNO Night at The Inventory" starring Sonic the Hedgehog, Susie Deltarune, Hat Kid, and Joker Persona 5. Also hosted by Chris McLean from Total Drama. As for the dealer and the whole Teens or Below theme, I decided to go with the cute little robot from Square Enix: Cube from Live A Live.

watched part 1 while eating a hot dog planning to do the same thing again

Minor correction: The Expanse isn't an IP that Telltale have created, it's originally a series of novels adapted into a TV series. I don't know if you already knew that, it's just the way you phrased it made it sound like they had created it themselves.

When I heard Nick Herman's voiceover I immediately went "Wait... that's Casperr!! :D" Man, watching this video is nostalgic. I had such a good time with Poker Night. I miss it.

Finally, you have no idea how much I've been waiting for this.

hell yeah, glad i showed up to the party early

Gosh, what a nostalgic video, great job partner. For I do remember playing Poker Night At The Inventory 2 a lot when I would be on road trips that or just out in public on my phone, suck a shake that when I had gotten some sort of update that it just delisted it from my library and just made it unavailable to download anymore, but I will never forget what it brought to me. As of today it’s actually still fun to hop on my laptop and play the games 1 and 2 whenever I got free time. As it’s nice to just sit and play and occasionally hear the banter of one character to another as it was just… nice. With it either being Brock and Claptrap bickering to how claptrap needs a bodyguard, that or how Heavy would say “I will make hat of you little bunny” to Max was just a barrel of laughs. That and the unlocks, I’ll never get rid nor delete the cosmetics I have in TF2 from 1 and 2, that or even my borderlands 2 unlocks. This really just makes me wish that we would get another Poker Night At The Inventory 3 featuring a lot of characters and other things, but that is only a wish and a thought, 2 things that may never come true. But it’s best to live with what we got now, two prices less pieces of nostalgic media of a classic game of video game poker. ♥️ ♣️ ♦️ ♠️

I'm a massive fan of your previous video, glad to see your return!

Nostalgia is when you like something just because it's from the past, and not because you actually appreciate the story on its own merits. I'd encourage you to give Portal more credit, as it's a genuinely fantastic narrative.

i have been waiting for this and it definitely did not disappoint, great job to everyone who helped and thanks for making this

I JUST finished watching your last poker night episode and saw you uploaded it as soon as that video finished.

Watched the documentary for the first Poker Night that you did. Glad to see you got to the second game this video was great ❤

Honestly to this day I still prefer Poker Night 1. However, a lot of Poker Night 2 I overlooked as you included in the video. Gonna install it again after this! It’s been a decade-I can’t believe it…

Eyyy, what a pleasant surprise. Just wanna say that seeing your video on the first game about a month or so ago, convinced me to go and find these games to try them out and enjoyed both of them thoroughly. And I was also thinking that it would have been nice to see a video on the second game as well. Perfect timing

This felt like a movie. Great work as always!

Thank you for making this. It was a real treat.

It's amazing! I was just rewatching your video on the first game and I see that you made the video you teased about the successor. Especially love the section on the music, since I'm an avid VGM fan myself. Decided to give you a sub since what I've seen so far is nothing but quality.

this was super well made and deserves more views!

There videos are so interesting for several reasons, so cheers for making them

I’ve been looking forward to this! This is amazing

Another amazing video, thank you so much! So entertaining

I've seriously waited for a second video ever since I watched the first Poker Night video And I think much like Poker Night 2 it delivered a more extensive and complete documentary with double the length of its original predecessor with much more quality put into it I seriously think that both of your videos are KZread classics about Telltale Games as a whole (IMO) But to wrap things up, incredible job on making this video and the first one, I highly enjoyed watching them both

Oh man, talk about a blast from the past! I remember watching videos of this game on KZread when I was little. I didn't know how to play poker, but I enjoyed the banter so much!!!

I have awaited this for awhile. Thank you

dream Poke night 3 table: Hellboy, Buffkin from Wolf Among Us, Space Ghost, and Sam&Max

I miss this game and hate myself for not buying it before it was unlisted, developers weren't afraid of featuring eachother's characters in their games (or even tv series etc) and it was the most prominent in TF2 with all the cosmetics it offered for preordering certain (good) games. Despite being so small and simple its really enjoyable to just spend time with the cast because they're convincing enough that they're actually there, so to say. I wish there was more games like this, fun & relaxing gameplay with unlockable content in other games by just playing on top of it? Unheard of these days.

Ive watched and enjoyed all of your videos and i wish you luck in all your future endeavors. May the algorithm bless you

A decade old; so surreal -loved my time with this one

Been waiting on this for a while!

This is so thorough 👌 absolutely beautiful

Although handing anything to the new TT scares me - There needs to be a new entry in this franchise. With new characters, but while also bringing back all the old ones from previous two games. Even reusing interactions between returning characters (while adding some new ones).

Extremely well made video, great work here.

A very well edited video. Nice job

The soundtrack really is fantastic, I'm glad you devoted enough time to really appreciate it in the video. With regards to Ash I never understood the mountain of hate Danny Webber got, I thought he did a pretty solid impression of Bruce's voice and mannerisms, and almost sounds dead on when he's really confidently projecting himself.

This is the best sequel ever since poker night at the inventory 2

Ooo la laa! This was amazing, keep it up! ❤❤

The first part was in my recommendations just a few days ago, I checked the channel and said , Damn, I guess the second part never happened... well here we are !

been waiting for this one

Holy shit I was just rewatching the first video wondering when you’d release the sequel and lo and behold it finally came!

Imagine a world where the premiere character crossover game is not a pvp brawl simulator made by Nintendo but a funny poker sim where every character from every franchise suddenly gets together to play a round in the inventory. Now that's something I wanna see someday...

My ability to watch long-form content like this is uncanny

Fantastic video, cheers man, subscribing and hoping for more :)

I really regret not picking these up. I had meant to for years and by the time I finally wanted to they were gone. Hope they show back up some day.

yippee! a new hour and a half long video that i can watch based on a game that i will never play!!!

I vividly remember seeing a screenshot of that game and never thought much of it. I couldn't believe this whole series was a telltale endeavor! Tycho being a representative of PAX as well?? This is some deep hidden lore I have never seen before in my 13+ years in the gaming community. Honestly some great documentation right here. Can't wait to delve into this one.
