The Remarkable Life of Ibelin (2024) - a jesam se isplakao na ovo, ne sjećam se kad sam zadnji put ovoliko suza pustio na nešto. Baš me pogodilo. Radi se o Matsu, mladiću iz Norveške koji ne može hodati zbog bolesti mišića i zatvoren je u svojem svijetu igrica. Igra World of Warcraft i ima lika koji se zove Ibelin. Njegova zajednica je Starlight. Odjednom umire, i roditelji misleći kako nije imao prijatelje, nalaze njegovu lozinku od bloga (koju je Matt namjerno ostavio) i pronalaze njegova razmišljanja o životu. Tamo na blogu napišu da je umro i ako ih netko želi kontaktirat, neka se jave na email. I odjednom počele stizati poruke od te zajednice. Tu počinje dokumentarac jer rekonstruira sve što se govorilo u svijetu igrica, kako je komunicirao, prijateljstva, ljubavi. Skroz srcedrapajuće, ali inspirativno. Odličan dokumentarac, svima na preporuku tko voli igrice, a i tko voli nešto inspirativno i emotivno. Čak je na njegov sprovod došlo petero igrača i odali mu počast. Matt je stvarno promijenio dosta života, počivao u miru.

Evo i ovdje imaju posjetu, čitam već zadnjih pola sata malo po netu istražujem jako lijepo.
https://www.starlightguild.co.uk/ i evo u našoj maloj zajednici u maloj Hrvatskoj pišem o Mattu/Ibelinu kako me danas u ovo gluho doba noći inspirirao barem na jedan trenutak. U čast njemu malo komentara. Život piše nekad stvarno čudne priče.
Fly high Ibelin. I'll treasure the memories of gaming with you forever. <3
Old lady here…I’ve never gamed a day in my life, had no idea about it. This documentary was not only a tear jerker but also a fascinating and positive insight into gaming. So glad I watched it.
I am 30 years old. I'm a father and a gamer. I haven't cried so much in a long time...
I had the distinct honour to play briefly with Ibelin on Steamwheedle cartel and starlight between 2010-2012, I didn’t know him very well outside of the game but he was always a warm and friendly guy to me, I was really sorry to learn a few years ago of his illness and his passing, I’m really pleased to see this tribute his friends and family can share in.
I cried like a baby through this whole movie. It made me want to be more kind and compassionate to others. Sometimes we wow players forget that there is a person behind the avatar.
I remember this in the WOW community, it was a really sad story about his disease and eventuell passing. Never knew it would be made into a documentary. I guess the waterworks will start again watching this.
But also a very nice celebration for him.
Wife steps in to the room "Are you crying?!? Wtf are you watching?!?" First time she saw me crying...I tried soooo damn hard to hold in the tears.
Ibelin. Your still helping people, even a decade after your passing...
You are missed bud.
One of the best documentaries I've ever seen. Hits especially hard for someone who played WoW for 10 years and met many friends through this game that I still talk to today.
Rest in peace Ibelin ❤
Azeroth was home for so many of us. I know when i finish this I'll ugly cry
Rest easy my brother. You will be greatly missed. The WoW community will miss you big time. Thank you for this documentary.
This documentary is simply a piece of Art. The way they recreated the life of Ibelin (Matt) inside the game is so beautiful. It's one of the most beautiful love/friendship stories I ever watched. RIP Ibelin
