Just finished watching this. I have no idea about the guy besides the fact he is fat and gay. Seeing how skinny he used to be just makes me kinda sad. Also made me grab a bottle of water instead of the can of soda I was planning on drinking
Well, this'll be one of the very few Disturban videos that probably isn't demonetised. I guess he got tired of missing out on ad revenue.
I would say he couldn't get a sponsor. Not sure what the sponsor actually pays him.
Really? Mind explaining what exactly about the Mandela Catalogue you dislike? The lack of subtlety is something I can understand. As someone who has a fear of the uncanny valley and things of that nature, I found the fact it didn't hide the horror and put it out on display even scarier, but as I said, it's only because I find the topic itself to be scary. The fact I watched it at home alone during a rainstorm didn't help much either. I suppose I just want to see your thoughts on it.
I get why people would be unsettled, again I'm guessing it's just cynicism on my end.
>11 minutes of "this fat gay faggot is doing it for attention"
I see. I have a few points to ask you about. Again, not trying to say you should love it, just want to nitpick your thought process.
I agree that they should not have used a modern sounding TTS bot. I would have preffered one that sounded less realistic, such as this one
I hate shit like that, but I think you may be confusing ARG's. I can't recall any times where it has done that. Correct me if I am wrong since I'm going by memory, but if hungover memory serves right, the fact that it didn't use loud jumpscares and instead used ambiance and silence to get points across was what made me like it.
There is no doubt that Local 58 set a high bar. The key to analog horror is to find an arg that covers a topic that scares you. For example, L58, the monster was the moon (or so we are lead to believe), in MC the monsters were human lookalikes, in Eventide Media Center the bombs were the monsters, et cetera.
A little bit of both, it looks like. Skimming through the Christian VHS and Vol. 1 it looks like there's a mix of both silence, static and noise. I guess my point is more that the whole face thing isn't very subtle and I've noticed it in a couple other analog horror series.
Oh, for sure. Honestly it's probably L58 setting the bar that made me dislike these series in the first place. They look like amateur projects and they're certainly better than anything I could make, so I'm not trying to really attack a creator just for putting in earnest effort in a world sick with irony poisoning. Just wish people would be a little more honest and forthcoming with constructive criticism.
Oh the face thing isn't subtle at all. infact a gripe I had was showing what the alternates looked like. I would have preffered to leave it to my imagination, or stick with those stick figure silhouettes instead of the photoshopped people.
Criticism is what makes any project go up a level, okay to good, good to great, great to legendary, et cetera. Infact I like that the creator stopped making community posts out of character due to fan suggestions, since it broke the illusion for me. But these projects do have an armature nature to them, especially some of the ones I had watched that had under 10k views. Just some kid with Photoshop, Vegas Pro 17, and a TTS bot. It's hard to find quality ones due to market oversaturation.
Slightly late on flesh pit talk, but TES' video was just him reading the disaster report without any commentary, so keep that in mind if you're diving into this without any knowledge whatsoever.
I was really into this video. I love all of his stuff, but I really enjoyed this one for some reason.
my friend keep me up till 5 am ranting about this video, while the Spongebob guy has good production value, his work its filled with cliches and very on the nose messages that have been made before and in a better and clever ways by Alan Resnick, its entire concept its a bandwagon clickbait that followed the Skin theory video, and as it seems he rush the idea to the ground very fast by involving the ARG and the "i dont want to do this" by the 3rd video, also the direct involment with Inside a Mind, made me think that the interest on the ARG shit was minimal and he wanted people to not necesarily notice it but to give a shit about it, how many millions of people watch the spongebob videos because theyre generic clickbait shit?, how many of those give a rat ass about a shitty tacked on ARG? i bet less than 100k if being generous.
There really is something weird with this ARG.
To be fair the creator's args are kind of like shitpost args and he doesn't take himself super seriously especially with how weird his pizza arg was.
