City stage my beloved. Used to specifically skip to that stage just because I thought it was the most fun- I really loved the options for takeover- usually I'd either go with culture/faith (because I genuinely don't remember if they'd ever even attack you for converting their cities) or the favorite: big flowers with massive guns on them!!! I'd spend hours designing their buildings and picking out my city ambience. To this day I want a website that lets you pick out the ambience from the city stage. I spent so long in the creature designer trying to make a feasible human being. Never did succeed, but what can I say, I was like 12. Edit: almost forgot- economic is easier if you start as military. you can switch at any time and buying up other cities is so much easier when you already conquered the other cities spice geysers with less work

The fact that the land is blue and the sea is green trips me up so much

Spore was my first game to download, and I'm really disappointed that after 13 years there hasn't been a sequel to this game (if there were currently many with the All Tomorrows Fandom I would do Qu XD stuff) I hope that one day a sequel will be released with the graphics of this era.

Me, 18 minutes ago: Oh hey, this guy did a video about my favorite game of all time. Me at 18:22 looking at how my funky little tribe of mushroom frogs I made somehow got their way into a KZread video, giggling like a little schoolgirl: *Look ma! I'm on TV!* But all things set aside, despite how much of a slog this game is at times this has been a keystone game for my creativity and I for one love this video for showcasing how much of a mess it is. But more importantly, about the fact that this game exists is still a miracle. In spite of the Spin-offs, in spite of the delays, and in indubitable spite against the company that shall not be named. So despite how harsh you picked on this beautiful hunk of junk I and I bet so many other people will say thanks for giving Spore a chance, and the fact you made it to the Space Stage told me you at least tried all of the courses off this eclair of evolution.

This game was my childhood, I had no idea how bad it actually was in retrospect but man it had potential. I actually loved City stage for some reason as it was satisyfing getting that army and steamrolling the planet... until you got too big of an army then it just got easy!

You’re hilarious dude! Not a ton of creators make me laugh out loud while watching, kudos to you man! Surprised you’re such a small channel, keep grinding though, you’ll get that big break soon

Civilization Stage was always by far my favorite part of the game. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I now realize that I just love Grand Strategy and that stage was my soft introduction to it. I tried Europa Universalis 4 a month ago to see if I would like it. I already have over 200 hours in it.

I thought this was gonna be about Mushroom Men the Spore Wars at a glance and got _real_ excited. This is great too!

Spore was probably the first actual game I played. Sure, there were some flash games and such before it, but I got Spore when I was 8, and I played it religiously for years. I must have had hundreds of planets and thousands of creatures by the time I shifted away into Halo 4, Terraria, and Destiny, 3-4 whole years later. I absolutely adored it, and played it over and over again, whether just creating creatures for fun or taking a cell all the way to space over a week. I don't have it anymore, thanks to EA hating joy and happiness, but as that one weird kid whose favorite movie as a child was Alien Planet and whose favorite book was Expedition (and if you like spore at all then you should absolutely check out both), Spore was truly magical to me.

A lot of folks talk about the scrapped Aquatic Stage, but there was also a scrapped "Town Stage" which would be in between Tribe Stage and Civilization Stage. It would be like a simplified city builder where you have to build up your fledgling town managing things like culture, crime and pollution. I think that this idea would've probably fit a lot better because the way you run your town would be a better indication for how you would decide to conquer the planet. If you make your town an Authoritarian Police State where criminals and decent are severely punished, you'd be a Military Nation. If you focused more on culture and faith in your town, you'd become a Religious Nation. If you made your town an industrial powerhouse, you'd become an Economic Nation.

Oh frick my nostalgia hit so hard at the sonic heroes music during city stage. Excellent selection

8:50 I can highly relate to this moment, both with the game crashing when I died near to completing hard mode creature stage, then realising the last time I saved was more or less 5 minutes after starting the creature stage. And then the first town I took over in civ stage on that world I accidentally chose to keep as an economic city, then save just before a military civilisation began to attack my original city. And as basically everyone hates you in hard mode by default, I had no possible way to progress with a single city I accidentally kept as economic.

I love Spore and it makes me sad we sad we've never gotten a sequel

Dude, how do you only have 3k subs??? I watched this and got the impression you had easily more than 100k! The production is so well done, I can’t wait to see what you do next!

18:20 in response to that question I can think of only 2 others. Team Fortress 2, and Halo: Combat Evolved. Halo CE has an EXTENSIVE modding scene via Halo Custom Edition, which is basically a mod platform for the PC port of the game. Multitudes of mods are STILL being released for Halo CE, especially now that through the MCC it’s receiving proper, first party mod tools for the first time. The abandonware port of the game was kept alive by its modding scene for at least a decade, really more like 15 years. Now while the support of Custom Edition has waned with the release of proper mod tools, causing people to move over to the Master Chief Collection, it’s still very much alive. And if you don’t believe me, just look at some of the things people have created in recent years with SPV3 and especially InfernoPlus’s Cursed Halo. It’s arguably been more supported than Spore.

"But if you play as a defensless herbivore you can either find them in meteors, or just collect them from the cells that other cells kill." Or stick spikes on your head and murder anyway. And this is still ignoring the option of having both a carnivore mouth and herbivore mouth(which I have pulled off _in the same spot,_ enlarging your frontmost bone to max after sticking the filtermouth on, then shrinking it back down to where you want it is the most consistent method I've found) or the omnivore's Proboscis.

Spore blew my mind as a kid. The scope and scale of the game was unlike anything I had ever seen before. An entire galaxy that felt real. To this day, I can only think of a couple games that can match the scale of Spore.

I love these videos! This channel is definitely going to blow up

I have found a goldmine upon KZread content! Loved this video holy crap :)

Dude, your channel is criminally underrated. Keep up the good work man. 😊 👍

I thought this video has 1.2 million views I was very surprised that it only has 1.2 thousand nice content man keep at it!

I loved spore as a kid, I think I had more patience for tedium and I let my imagination (and limited selection of games to play) take the fun in new directions. I think coming back to this game as an adult I’m shocked what I put up with lol. Still love this game, lots of charm and character

bro I love your voice, you're so charismatic

"You get bored of this really, really quickly." I'm pretty sure the cell stage is like everybody's favorite stage (or is at least really close) Also, I've never actually have Spore crash even though my computer is almost as good as a calculator. The tribal stage was also one of the most fun for me too. (Also, not EVERY tribe starts mad at you) And also, if you think the space stage is kind of boring based on his war faring perspective, it's not. It's quite fun to befriend other space faring civilizations, then ask them to accompany you and then you can kill things together. Buy planets, steal creatures from other planets, use them to terraform other planets, and not to mention the fact that there are 8 different "classes" with unique superweapons. (Everyone hates you if you use them, except the Grox.) The game isn't actually as bad as he makes it seem, it can be a bit repetitive at times but it's still fun even after replaying it like 5 times.

Question. How the hell do you only have 2.4k subs!? Like bruh you got so many good qualities, the way you speak just attracts someones attention and keeps people entertained.

I really liked this game when I was younger. The thing is, I was like 11-12 at the time. I didn't go online to read about videogames, I didn't know it was super hyped. I just saw it one day, thought it looked neat, and bought it. And I played a LOT of spore. Playing through the game, the creator creation is certainly limited. Like you mentioned, there is always a "best" part. But to me, my favourite part was just making random creatures, buildings, vehicles of all types, etc. Then when I DID play the game, they would all randomly appear. I think that alone is the best part of the "procedural generation", when you randomly stumble upon something YOU created (or even something cool by another person) in game. Since the abilities of other creatures is a lot less impactful than your own, they can have much more variety. The way they get more and more complicated as the stage progresses, the way you get to see and interact with so many creations... it's great. I thought village was certainly the worst (surprise) and city was okay, but space was also cool as heck. The entire concept is something that could be it's own full game, exploring the galaxy, flying down to planets, terraforming them. It literally teaches you SO much about what exists in space and how to get living creatures to survive. It was so important, the expansion was totally based around missions in space, that were basically a sandbox for people to make fully custom levels and quests to complete.

Man your videos are amazing, I really hope you blow up soon.

Wow, I saw your punch out video and really enjoyed it, so I subscribed and started checking out your other stuff. I was so shocked that you have so few subs with such polished and interesting content! Im sure you’re gonna blow up soon, this content is great!

Nice video! Never played Spore but I've heard good things. I think the ground creature stage seems the most fun. Keep it up with your videos, cheers!

In the "cell stage" you can use both herbivore and carnivore mouths and the stage takes at least 1 minute, also you just need spikes and you can kill even giant titan cells

6:50 In fact, the game shows in the evolution tab how many years passed from the cell stage to the space stage, and every time you change your character a little, thousands of years pass before we hatch in the egg, it took me years to discover that

I'm one of the few folks that loved Darkspore. I played it so much and was sad to see it die and disappear forever...

I think people fell in love with the idea of Spore, evolve with a species from single cells through civilization and space, maybe hang out as creatures for a while and see what you can get out of that. EA doesn't seem to understand games which may not be the main reason they dumbed down Spore from something that could be used in classes to show how one strange body type would move, to just another game for the masses and a franchise built on top. The character creator is great and I LOVED the original blurry demo. I don't know about playing it but that demo is a great opener to the imagination of where games can go. Maybe it proved to be too much work or having Sims and Civ under your belt wasn't enough to really sell it all but it's still impressive.

Dude this guy deserves way more subscribers

One of my favorite games of all time

Underrated channel

The Creature Stage rant about creature creation, I've taken this lesson from my big sister, who played Spore a lot: "Make a powerful creature, and on your last trip to the creature creator, create the creature, you want"

Great video! Would love to see more👍

Pretty sure a lot of the reason why people are still making so much stuff for Spore to this day is because of the far and away more fun and interesting Galactic Adventures expansion pack (the biggest problem with Galactic Adventures is that it's an expansion pack for Spore, frankly), which was left completely unmentioned in this video. e: To be fair, I guess Galactic Adventures being an expansion for Spore at least spared it the fate that befell Darkspore, of being saddled with always-online DRM that rendered it literally unplayable after EA killed its servers.

Yeah the galactic adventures expansion is easily worth the base game as well

Noticing a lot of the Sonic OST in the background, I approve

SPORE is probably one of the games I return to the most, even if I hate the Tribal and Civilization stages for how BORING they are, I still come back just to make some cool monsters or outright mess with the galactic adventures planet editor. I'm honestly impressed by the amount of full playthroughs I have of this game alone, it was a huge part of my childhood too. I agree that the game had so much potential (the aquatic stage not being a thing makes me sad every time I remember it.) Right now I have discovered the modding scene, and boy oh boy that is going to expand my amount of hours put into the game.

The end of this video genuinely made me a little bit emotional.

What somebody should do is make a new game that's like the Spore creature stage and creator but it's updated and has various biomes also with servers and multiplayer

I genuinely never knew Spore had civilizations and space exploration. I thought it was just a creature-builder because that's where everyone seems to quit playing.

18:24 I've got one: The World Ends With You. TWEWY is niche and literally only got a sequel BECAUSE of fans supporting it for 14 years. Being so passionate about it

This game holds a special place in my heart and its a shame something of this magnitude hasn't been attempted afterwards

Spore is the game that is closest to the perfect game for me. That’s why I love it so much. The probably never will be the perfect game, but until the the merit of spore combined with the nostalgia makes it one of my favorite games.

Honestly when you put the premise of the game like that in the opening, I just realize that Evolve idle by Dermageddon (a free browser game) is honestly just Spore But Cooler.

the only spore game I've played is spore creatures on the ds. It's not that great but I will say the main villain is amazing. to put it simply, it's just a creature in the space stage, which doesn't sound that interesting but from the perspective of a creature that while intelligent doesn't even have basic tools. and It's going up against a life form so advanced that it can take the DNA of other creatures and make entirely new ones.

Hey I had the iceberg too. That's 2!

I 'cleared' the space age by rushing the center. Loading as many terraforming and colonizing tools as I could, traveled until I ran out of supplies, then cleared and terraformed a planet long enough I could resupply there and then moved on. Sure that colony was essentially doomed, but they got me enough to go a little bit further in.

Great editing

8:10 aw sweet bonus dishonored review!

Yup I adore spore and will never get bored of it but this game made me so stressed when a game even lags a little cause of crashing

I had the boxed collectors edition of spore that I couldn't install after the 3rd time and it was just a paper weight until about 2 years ago when I finally threw it away.

I've actually never had any issues with spore crashing in my entire time of playing it even when i had a really crappy computer so the crashing is news to me

I would love to see Spore made today.

I heard it mentioned for a split second and I have to say it. The DS spore game was actually pretty fun.

Aaaaw I love the trouble phase

(I knew it was sonic heroes from the distinct style just had to listen to THE WHOLE SOUNDTRACK to find the song.)

i prefer spore as a tool for creativity more than a normal game. i especially like telling little stories with how my species evolve, where you can still find traces of ideas from the cell stage and such

my main path will pretty much always be -omnivore (by putting both carnivore & herbivore mouths on it) -Adaptable -industrious (being friendly is easy, just give them a gift first) -economic (and launch the final weapon on the bottom) & stop not long into the space stage

there is actually 5 routes in the space stage, which are based on which routes you took in the previous stages

Space Stage is my favorite part of Spore, which is apparently an unpopular opinion

I dunno man.

I've never had crashes in Spore. Spore crashes if you try to play it on modern computers apparently

I think you exaggerated quite a bit on how often the game crashes. In my experience, the game has only ever crashed when I performed a glitch that allowed you to fling yourself into space. Otherwise, it's been completely stable.

It is so weird to have this be the only Spore game I never played. Spore Creatures on the DS? Great. Spore Heroes on the Wii? Good exploration, shit minigames. But I never had a PC that could run this game, not to mention my lack of money.

Tbh i like playing economic in the civilisation stage, it's easy and fun

Why do the best games not have an auto save and yet frequently crash, it happened with both subnautica and spore

Psst, the reason everyone hated you in the tribal stage was because you were aggressive in the creature stage.

Yes

I grew up with spore, played it in fourth grade at school in this weird extra activities thing we did once a month, got it for myself, loved it to death. Do I still love it? yes. I enjoy playing it every time I go back to it, Cell Stage is w/e, Creature stage is alright, Tribal Stage is fun, Civilization stage is very fun, and Space Stage is super fun for a while but its endless nature means the fun eventually drops off and I stop. I basically do not relate you ANY of your grievances, and when I would like to say "well i'm just nostalgia blind" there are other games that I am just as nostalgic for that I hate.
