By popular demand, all thirteen of the original Story of Payday episodes rolled into one. The early episodes have been remastered to fit more so into the style I settled for on in the later ones. Nothing has been gutted, simply touched up, with new episode transitions being recorded to create a more natural storytelling style. Additionally, Episode 12 is decensored and contains never before scenes. This video concludes with a final Q&A, delving into the most pressing questions you guys had after the series finished. Thanks so much for watching and supporting the series. Work is beginning on the City of Gold Campaign story video so rest assured, I will be covering it. Roll on Payday 3.

    @@gamingjolt9621 During CrimeFest there was a new microtransaction put into the game where you could buy safes (loot boxes) for special weapon skins and blueprints, some of which gave stat boost. The community felt betrayed by the devs who said that microtransactions would never be a thing in payday 2. As a result, the lootboxes were taken out and you can now earn the weapons by just completing heists and getting really lucky or trading in the community. Kknowley put it into the lore when he mentioned Vlad's weapons that he started giving out for free around 1:34:50.

    Hardcore (named Hardcore Henry in some countries) was such a wild movie, I recommend watching it if you like unique and well made action movies (it's filmed 100% in first person), i'm still amazed that according to payday2 lore it's set in the same world as John Wick, Reservoir Dogs, Left 4 Dead and Hotline Miami. Jimmy was such a fun character in that movie and is my favourite crossover Heister.

    I think my favorite part of all this is that the Dentist's failure is his own damn fault. If he hadn't engineered Hoxton's arrest, the gang wouldn't have pissed off so many powerful people, wouldn't have had to expand, and thus wouldn't have recruited the only man on the planet who could help them break the cycle. The thing that gave him the leverage he needed for his plan to be set in motion is ultimately what ruined his plan. Poetic justice at it's finest, folks.

    I know I’m super late to this party but about the kings. I had a theory that the 3 kings of the Kataru were actually originally the 3 Tamil kings who ruled by conquest over much of India. My thought was that maybe in this timeline, the nephalim (or however you spell that,) originally came into contact with the Tamil kings, providing them with life extending technology and so on. This idea sort of made sense to me what with all the references to history and mythology from many cultures. Plus it would explain how they’ve been around so long.

If they match the symbols of the core four, and are meant for us, shouldn't we be wearing the masks in the coffer? If our masks we're wearing rn dont shapeshift, why is there an identitcal shapeshifting masks locked in a coffer nobody has seen for eons? Who made them?

I'm guessing the sword would be either the payday gang or just his explosives and stuff. I tried looking for connections to the other heisters but I can't really make out anything. I looked up a guide and apparently there are 13 riddles and a quick Google search shows there are 22 total heisters in the game.

    This was so cool! Listened to this while welding in place of a podcast or music. Amazing video and breakdown, man!

    4:04:25 My personal theory is that the masks in the chest are actually meant to be the ones you get when you complete the secret (the ancient ones, not the "Secret Dallas/Chains/Wolf/Hoxton" masks), but for some reason, Overkill just put in weathered versions of the default masks in there, probably since the secret ending masks were likely made well after Henry's Rock was released.

    I'm saying this right now before a watched it because i don't care how accurate you put it together: You're a fucking Legend for making this. All the work and research you had to put into this video must've been huge. Much love from Germany man, keep them dozers flying.
