Z-Com, X-Company, Zero Company: the Honest Game Trailer that keeps going

With nothing new posted, Jon Bailey's take on Star Wars: Zero Company and its mind-controlling bugs is the video still pulling a daily crowd, with the channel past 1.1 billion lifetime views.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

Honest Game Trailers has now gathered close to 1.1 billion views over its life, and it got through these seven days without adding a single new video to the pile.

The one doing the most work is eleven days old. The Honest Game Trailer for Star Wars: Zero Company stumbles over its own subject in the first line, calling it Z-Com, then X-Company, before landing on the real name. The joke is aimed at the turn-based strategy game's family resemblance to XCOM. The description also bills it as the best turn-based game about evil mind-controlling parasite bugs since Baldur's Gate 3. Jon Bailey, the Epic Voice Guy, narrates, as he has for most of the series.

Behind it sits a trailer for Steam itself, hardware and all, which closes on a pun about having been "Gaben no other choice." Further back, a spring Honest Interview is still finding people: Neil Newbon and Devora Wilde, the voices of Astarion and Lae'zel, face what the channel calls a grueling charisma check, Skittles included.

Without a new upload, daily views ran a little below the channel's usual level, and the subscriber count held steady at about 1.35 million. Among the gaming news and commentary channels of a similar size, the busy weeks belong to GameTrailers, SpawnPoiint and Digital Foundry, while The Completionist is running a bit above his own norm. Honest Game Trailers spent its week in the archive, with a Star Wars spoof doing most of the talking.
