Some people said I needed to do more clickbait stuff. Others said I have big Hbomb energy. I combined them together, and created: plagarism*

Others say the intro is still going. They were right then, and they're right now.

This was fun to make. I can see why people do it. Please never ask me to make clickbait again. It makes me feel dirty. I was too far into the "joke" around doing a clickbaity title and ripping off hbomb that by the time I realised it was a mistake it was too late, and the infinitely better titles suggested by my Patreons couldn't be used because half the video wouldn't make sense. The joke has only become more of a mistake as time marched forwards

Also there's a lot of audio and footage chopping, which frustrates me. The HD file of this is 20GB. The UHD file was 80GB. Davinci Resolve was having NONE of it, and then the credits were screwy so I had to delete the old video. But despite it being unlisted and not sharing a link, 6 of yous saw it before I took it down to upload a corrected version! What's going on there, YouTube?!

EDIT: The original title of this was "Black Mesa Is Ge̶n̸i̵u̶s̴,̴ Ä̸̱́n̴̜̈́d̶͚̽ H̵̞́̈́ë̸͖́r̵̙̹̂̎e̵͎̩̊́'̴̙͜͝s̸̖͚̅̕ ̶̧̃͠W̷̖̽h̵̠̀̾y̸̜̌". I removed the void text after a commenter pointed out that void text can make the title inaccessible to the blind/those who rely on visual readers to access YouTube. I want the things I make to be as accessible as they can be. See, the title isn't *just plagiarism!
