Duck Season speedruns are horrifying 

Totally agree, remember loving this a lot when it first took off

the "older feeling easter eggs" are there because the game IS old. it was originally released in late 2017

@@Bread_37 i think they meant like retro easter eggs not old feeling

Pretty sure this game was massively popular when it was released

This game was decently popular but it had the unfortunate luck of releasing around doki doki literature club.

I remember I used to sleep with my door open as a kid, and outside my door it was kind of like a balcony type walkway into an open stairwell, so at night you would pretty much just be staring into the abyss past the railing. every night I would look into that abyss and imagine the dog from duck season climbing up the railing and attacking me. I think it lowkey traumatized me because this video was so hard to watch it actually scared me and I don't find any other popular horror game from back then scary in the slightest now.

@@zitronensaaft3454 Bro, I thought I was the only one. The game like traumatized me for like a year until I just forgot about it.

@@RBGamingloll Same, back then I would be chilling, on my phone, and then I look somewhere and I just hallucinate the frickin' dog coming around like, whatever corner I'm looking at-

Should I be worried

@@davidherreragonzalez6145 Well... Kinda. In the other 2 bad endings the dog escapes through the TV into the real world if he breaks the TV in the boss fight and eliminates David if he stops the dog from breaking the TV but fails to stop him from killing him. Both occur if you shoot him. But in the nuke ending you don't have to shoot the dog to get it. So here it's possible to get the ending without giving the dog a reason to eliminate David.

I mean, some theories go that the dog is actually his dad... So, you know, if you don't shoot the dog, it won't want bad things for you...

@@SleepyIceman6472 well... shit I guess I just gotta watch out for any dogs and nukes then

I actually inspected the scene closer and caught a glimpse of what was actually going on. The dog walks over, crouches down and waves at him. He does the same thing when he traps David in the TV

"the dog isn't just inherently evil. Yeah, he'll murder an entire family as retribution for a child harming him without the knowledge that he's sentient and he'll record you with a camcorder without your consent for... reasons?" Yeah........definitely not evil

​@@pokemata1035exactly, i was like "are you even reading what you're writing"😂

@fluckter_600 Perhaps not phrased the best way... I meant that he does things with reason. Bad reasons, reasons bad enough to probably justify calling him evil now that I think of it, but I wanted to note that he did have a reason for his actions because it seems that a lot of horror monsters just kill to kill; because they're the horror monster character that is supposed to chase and hunt the victim character. I thought it neat that he *actually has to be prevoked* to do anything. Now the camcorder is just kinda weird, uncalled for, and the fact that it can happen in a playthrough without provocation feels like the devs flat out forgot to make it dependent on the player's route.

@@oksure9261 That's very fair, I probably should have realized that's what you meant. As for the camcorder, yeah, that's weird. My immediate theory is that maybe he was still deciding on whether or not to kill you. This is backed by the fact he recorded one of his victims in the hidden tape, and he still steals the knife. But that's just my theory.

I think this is satire

ME TOO!! I literally couldn't go into my kitchen at night because I didn't want to see anything outside the door.

i got one like that too and the lock on it broke ☠️

@@worldwidefunnyguyyou’re cooked💀

SAME... I would always get too scared to go into the living room at night because of that door 😭

reletable

I've seen one like this about zygarde

the "dog" ending of SH2?

I wonder how many people recognize the hommage.

me reckognize but never played the silent hill game

I keep thinking there's a Ouija board ending but I never see anybody talk about it so maybe I have the wrong game.

@@SudsyCola no yeah i think i know what you're talking about! does it involve the cat clock? i distinctly remember that being important

Just say that jumpscares make u pee ur pants

@@Dhruvvrma9224 you’ve clearly never seen films like skinamarink… or any psychological horror movie or game…

@@The_anomaly760 ok but that's not what I am talking about

fears to fathom is another spooky game that has jumpscares but they're either just to get you worked up or because you died. the fear factor is very much there, especially with the knowledge that they're true stories and in every day places. spooky.

@@Dhruvvrma9224 Nah jumpscares just aren't... scary. A jumpscare doesn't get you on edge, it doesn't even scare you. The tension and buildup do that, all a jumpscare does is get a reaction, but that isn't fear.

This is how most characters in horror movies should deal with their adversity.

It’s funny how many times the police shot the dog

The indomitable dog spirit

He got that dawg in him, literally

It reminded me a little of the beginning of the movie The Naked Gun 😂

16sec ago

More like the ATF

nah that's what police dogs do to any random black or poor person, or a protestor

damnit @meepdhctdjsh i was going to say that joke

Thia isnt really mascot horror

@@shrub8644 hence the quotation marks since i know some people would disagree. Based on the broad definition of the genre, i do think duck season falls into that. If theres any other niche definition of what makes a mascot horror, I am not aware of it

@@fuelthepyre00 Maybe I'm wrong but I always thought they were defined by having marketable characters that act as the mascots for the series

@@shrub8644 i think its because the story for duck seasons is mainly told from the perspective of a child whos playing a game featuring the mascot, so you dont really see the "marketable" corporate side of it. But the in game ads kinda mimics the old 90s commercials featuring the dog kinda like poppy playtime's ads. Also maybe because duck seasons as a game/franchise doesnt really market its 'mascot' as a mascot (not selling the dog guy as a cutesy mascot merch etc unlike hugsy or the fnaf charcters). Idk i think its because the dog guy is its own thing instead of a part of a corporation thing? That people dont really think its mascot horror. But to me it fits all the criteria of a mascot horror, just not a corporate mascot horror, more like "this one game cartridge has the soul of a serial killing dog in it" rather than "this mascot was made in a factory designed specifically to lure children to their death" kinda thing??? Idk its hard to explain lol

bruh same im still paranoid of seeing that dog outside of my window even after years of seeing a playthrough

Room scale is amazing. When I was big into VR i had it setup I’m a huge living room. I could walk all over. It was amazing for immersion

“Fun fact I’m one of the few people” no you are not lmao

for some reason they reminded me of spamton g spamton from deltarune if you’ve played it

really wow thanks i see it now!

That's what I thought, but I wasn't sure I was seeing it right.

Well this game was made by one of the guys from corridor so that's neat.

@@WaterYoshi not "one" of the guys but Duck Season is made by SLZ, who work in the same building as Corridor, so SLZ commonly collaborates on projects with Corridor

@@WaterYoshi That's very neat

idk a lot of these are just dead games that nobody played, as you saw near the end, there was a single attempt for the all endings speedrun...

i just love the "bone" series, spent over 90 hours boning in both of the games!!

i had fears for weeks that the dog would just appear out of the dark areas of my house and kill me

@@NotPsyduckc Yeah, but that just goes to show how well made and scary it is lol.

As much as I love MatPat, half of his theories are as solid as water.

@@CowWithTommyGunAltAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA yes

Okay? And?

You saying his mom is into furries? That's hot.

Ya I saw that video.

that theory was debunked by the game devs

He's not

I once pointed out how every single one of MatPat's theories was either wrong, or not even a theory because he was basically just rēading the wiki. Like good job "figuring" out that SMB3 is really a play, did the fact that it was presented as a play tip you off? Or was it the interview where Miyamoto said that the entire Mario cast was an acting troupe? The strangest part is he implies that _only_ SMB3 is fake, when the whole series is canonically non-canon, so his "theory" is technically wrong. Anyhow, on to the relevant portion. Someone was butthurt that I was "insulting" him but pointing out his faults, so I asked them to tell me which theory they thought was the best, had the most credibility. They sited this one. They literally sited "the Dog is your Dad" theory explicitly debunked by the devs themselves. I guess I shouldn't be too shocked... when Game Theory was trying to figure out Ash's father, they ended up choosing Giovanni, the _one single person_ that the Pokémon Company has confirmed that _it isn't._ Like, seriously, Jessie has a higher chance of being Ash's Dad at this point... advanced cloning _does_ work in that world.

@@Wendy_O._Koopa chill out bro, those videos are just made for entertainment

@@l38endary And, without fail, some simp chimes in, "Ackchyually, MatPat doesn't really _believe_ anything he says, so it's okay!" No, that's _worse._ I don't know how to explain to you that it makes it so much _worse_ that way?

It never fell off, the devs made a good game everyone liked. Then they went to do other projects, no crappy merch, no sequel, no $200 book series, I respect them.

@@pokemata1035 fell off i mean like it became less popular over time after it came out, although i totally agree with you

​@@cdkt1970 most game do that, unless they get regular updates or something.

How far we've come from the days of old

It was confirmed to be false by the devs, they made a statement after MatPat popularized the theory. The dog was probably just mocking you.
