@@heckingbamboozled8097 I like the idea of reverse video game even more. There is some great spy vs spy lore in the background, but you do not play the intricate spy game - you play the few moments when they piss every day, with the sceneries getting more and more riddiculus (some rich mansion, dubai, nuclear submarine, space station etc.) but all you get is some self dialogue, maybe some phone action while you take the dump and then game fast forwards to another number one or number two the next day lol
Charlie stopping the Jacksepticeye instructional video before they mention him in the credits as "Charlie White - Moisturizer Captain" is the true horror.
Charlie: "Why would they not believe him? A cult or weird people in a forest is not too far fetched." Also Charlie before the game even starts:"I don't believe him, he's lying."
He was skeptical(perhaps just jokingly so even) based on how they were going about starting the story. Of course once the story is over you're left with two major plot holes, which kinda indicates it is actually fake
@@jonathanpilcher337I mean, if you start a story with "people won't believe me", "I was working at a fire watch", and clearly fake information about salary, it's pretty obvious that you made it up. At least the fire watch stories always make me wish I lived like that.
@@jonathanpilcher337 Which plot holes? I think it's fake too tbh because like how do u not notice that your RV door is open when you leave the diner, also all the stories seem too detailed and far fetched except norwood hitchhike
Taking a piss in the porter potty to make yourself lighter so you can run faster was the smartest play I've ever seen. You should join the Fears to Fathom ranked esports team my god.
That first jumpscare at the door genuinely startled the fuck out of me. I was so at peace enjoying Charlie's humor until that moment. Meanwhile this dude just goes "I see."
If by 'breath of fresh air' you mean 'boring as sin', then sure. He clearly gets no actual enjoyment out of horror games. I wish he'd stick to playing shit that actually has a fucking impact on him. Like, I'm not asking for him to shit and piss himself, but you'd think he was watching paint dry. Like, stop torturing yourself, homie 💀
@@DopeioThePhoneBoi I and many others enjoy watching him play horror games for multiple reason. Charlie is actually funny and makes it entertaining most of the time. And second, unlike 90% of other RU-vidrs he doesnt fake his reactions towards these shitty games. Im an absolute b!thc when it comes to horrorgames and i still dont react even close to how RU-vidrs fake it. Charlie in general is a huge breath of fresh air since he doesnt fake anything and simply is how he is.
"Goatman is one of few cyptids that have a confirmed kill, because someone fell off of a bridge while looking for Goatman" I don't know why I found that so funny
As a homeless person living in an rv, I can tell you they don't all cost that much. You're paying extra for water not seeping in at corners, reliable generator, functional fridge. If you're willing to give all that up they can be very attainable!
Fun fact, 10:38 this wolf stock sound effect actually dates back to 1997 in the Lucas Arts game *Outlaws*, used in the soundtrack "Sanctuary". Actually used to love this game
15:45 till 15:56 got me absolutely dying 😂😂 *"That's good news"* *"I see you behind the trees to my right"* *"That's- That's connor"* *exits without elaborating*
No lie, literally at the exact same second Charlie started to read the text on screen saying “Hey, how’s that burger” (3:30) I had started to open up the wrapper on a burger I had just brought home from Culver’s. It was an almost startling coincidence 😂
I like to giggle about how not scary horror games are, but if I were in Charlie’s shoes, I know I and a lot of others would be quivering while playing this game
The nighttime can be dangerous in the woods, I once saw two people going at it in the forest. When the dude spotted me he made a b-line towards me like a madman, I was only able to outrun him since I think he took off his shoes so he couldn't run very fast in the trail. I'd say that's one hell of a suspicious activity.. I felt like if he caught up to me he'd straight up strangle me to death.
This is one of the few times in recent memory where I have actually been startled by a piece of media. The kind of analogue feeling to it, the mystique of the vast wood parks of the Pacific Northwest. Lit campfires in the night and 90s camper vans driving in the dusk. It all gives a feeling of a summer road trip story from like some Reddit thread which seems to be blatantly false, but you never truly know. Great stuff!
Right when I was thinking about how terrifying it would be for a park ranger to be stalked by satanists in a watch tower, Charlie blurts out “Nobody’s here!” while hiding. Comedic gold 😂
13:44 a damn good point. In horror fiction: "It was probably a prank lmao" "Haha yeah probably!" *proceeds to be certain death* In real life, if it WAS a literal prank, it would be blown out of proportion and scandalized/theorycrafted to hell and back. Not to say pranks such as leaving fires and skulls outside someone's door is ok in the first place, of course, just that in fiction "it's just a prank", and in real life, a prank would NEVER go underestimated.
I went to college on a mountain in Virginia. There are places the locals tell you not to go hiking in. Mainly because of meth heads. But legends spread about portals to hell and all sorts of stuff.
Dudes coworkers are definitely part of the cult if they don't believe him... his family also being involved is just too far fetched though. It's possible but I'm not believing it unless I see Charlie play a part 2 of this and they actually show/tell us
Yea the family thing is weird, as is literal photo evidence just being overlooked. I mean I could see the photo thing being added to make the story more interesting, but I can't explain why he'd lie about his family either somehow being involved or legitimately not believing him
“That u again Mitch”at the jumpscare outside the bottom of the tower always has me dying of laughter how calm Charlie is after being approached by some random guy at night
very nice of penguinz0 to include gameplay from charlie and voice overs from moist critikal honestly the amount of collaboration going on i had to take off my sunglasses to see the actual beauty before my eyes, i then took off my second pair of sunglasses to further my vision i was at a lack of words from what i could see, tesseracts forming, non euclidean geometry all around me i---
Nothing will ever make me laugh harder then "Whats up everybody is Cr1tikal, im playing OctoDad..commentating while im playing, LETS GO" Great to see the progression of these videos and channel man! Long time fan!
My aunt an uncles live near Roseburg Oregon. It's a beautiful area. Lots of great woods and outdoors around there. RIP my cousin David, he passed away in a truck accident while hauling lumber for the lumber mill there
I am 25 and I have lived in an RV for 3 years now, and sincerely, they are not terribly expensive. Ones you drive around, yes. But RV is also used to describe ones you two behind a truck (trailers).
@@samu-chanthats a stylistic choice. Its meant to look like a random story sent in by a random player. Because they're based off of stories from players.
It could just be me but it feels like Charlie has been reading dialogue in games more recently. It makes it so much more enjoyable when he reads the dialogue lol, could just be me but I feel like he’s started to do it more frequently now
I remember turkey hunting in the middle of no where and stumbling onto a pentagram in the dirt with candles around it never been scared of the woods but that freaked me out an awful lot.
Charlie I’ve been watching your videos for so long and it’s great to see that you still are the same, as many other RU-vidrs leave or change for the worst, you have stayed the same. Thank you for being yourself and bringing joy to millions.
seeing charlie’s smile sparked a gleam in my eye and a slight palpitation of the heart. my grandmother was watching as well and now she can walk again. my goodness, may charlie inspire millions once more
I actually live next to the “goatman” forest. Sadly, the bridge you talked about is a train bridge, and it’s a popular place for people to jump off of. We recorded a horror of the “goat man” lol
The presentation in this game was very good, from how it looks to the pacing of the events .. but the end being a silly chase from a random cult dude was a bit of a let down. It would have worked better if it had implied more about why this man is dangerous though it only takes one lone whacko with a knife to stab you to death.
you know these games are supposed to be based on true stories right? you can decide whether or not you think it's real, but this story was sent in by a random person.
I agree this episode just felt a bit weak compared to the previous 3. It was also a major disappointment to me, as rayll stated in development before the release that "this will be the longest and most ambitious episode". but it was really just as long as carson house and not 2 hours long as it says in the game at all. Still the episode delivered and yet another solid edition, still not a single episode has missed in the fears to fathom series.
@@James-pw8kg I mean, "true" stories being that they got them from people who aren't part of the dev team but I wouldn't be surprised if most of the submissions they get are fabricated or (heavily) exaggerated.
@@DatCameraMON I know, that's why I worded my reply the way I did. My point is that the story wasn't made as a video game plot, and therefore it makes no sense to critique it as such.
bro what kind of game is so short. it was kinda just, you go into a ranger station, your buddy gets killed, you hide under the bed, you run away...what???
This chapter sets up so many things, but the cult plot is the only thing that has any meaningful reveal. What was the whistling about? Who was Silus? What was with your RV's bathroom? What was the trooper not telling you? Why do you eat in your bed? All these things are spooky, but they don't lead up to anything.
If you pieced things together you’d know that the whistling is the cultists, and Silas is a cultists member, and the guy from inside the diner with the shovel was a cultist and intentionally screwed with your bathroom, and the trooper is working with the cultists, and “eating in bed” is just a personal choice of Jack Nelson, they aren’t meant to lead to anything but are rather meant to be connected together.
