I don't understand this boy. First he leads you to a place where no one else is looking 1:48, gives signs saying "OUU YEAH" and lets you get close and then 1:54 gives you a slap in the face when it comes to kissing. Dw. Not your last date broski. Tall guys are always like that.
In safe mode, monsters will stop of you're near them. If you throw something at them however, they will break and run at you so they can hurt you. I think they did this to prevent players from going "LOL throw this and that at the monster, it can't do anything against me!"
