This was a really interesting approach: you find another person but are so paranoid you won't talk to them. I like that you left it a bit ambiguous on whether it was an entity or a person. Subscribed!!
So just by the way the person running after him talks and the way he sound, I'm guessing that wasn't a real person but rather an entity. If that's what this backroom video is, then this is a rather interesting approach. Dude was so paranoid he couldn't even trust whether that person or thing that was chasing after him was a person trying help him so he doesn't get hurt or it's just another interesting yet freaky entity. Great video Giraffe. 😂😊❤🎉😢
This was pretty interesting. Being alone in the backrooms would make even a human seem terrifying. I'm assuming the guy in the video has been in the backrooms for many hours to have reached this point of paranoia hence the video recording stopping and starting. It's also not afraid to narrate the entire footage, Most narrations are sprinkled in just a little bit and then the cameraman shuts up and maybe says something every few minutes. This footage is kind of how I would behave in the backrooms. Fearful of dark hallways, paranoid by other people in this space yet too curious for my own good. As if traveling through the backrooms would take my mind off of being trapped in a area I'm lost in.
The first time I watched this video and once the character first landed, I thought this would be an unrealistic mess based off of the colors. Then I saw the camera movements and voice acting, and I IMMEDIATELY knew I was wrong. The fact that someone was so insane that they were straight up chasing the protagonist (who, mind you, was pretty paranoid) was a very unique and well put together idea. Good video, I hope you do more backrooms content.
Outstanding work! Really liked the voice acting here, explaining how he felt etc. 0.45 was such a cool feature looking into that room that resembled a bedroom. I don't believe that other person was an entity. Entities don't understand our language so when they come out with words, they most of the time don't make sense. The person was able to put words together.
At intervals, there is a deep thumping sound that is SO anxiety-inducing (if you are listening with headphones or high-quality earbuds, that is)! GiraffeLord's Backrooms videos are among some of the BEST nowadays!
My guy here, looking for another human being in the Backrooms, and he actually manages to find one, a very rare and lucky encounter, and he decides to just run away and get himself killed in the process.
Sees normal-ass guy: *runs, hides, generally acts like trapped animal* Sees shrieking fungus monster: "Oh my God, I finally found someone in this nightmare place! I hope you don't mind hugs; my whole family are huggers!"
Making convincing dialogue is way harder then just creating mute low-grade realistic video. Also, the guy seems distressed about being lost. Unless the other person had something clearly wrong with him, I do not understand him freaking out.
GiraffeLord, this is a Grade-A Backrooms video. The voice acting is superb, along with the rendering. This introduces a new kind of terror. It's not the old overplayed Bacteria, but something much more interesting b/c of its portrayal as a human being. Hell, for all we know, it might even be an actual human being just like our protagonist. What establishes the horror before he encounters anything else is just like the guy implied: this place makes no sense! What architect would design such a place? It's all form without function. That, in my opinion, is what begets such primordial fear. If one can't trust where they are, how can one take a chance trusting anyone they encounter in it, human appearance or not?
Style and animation are incredibly good. Like, top notch. Some of the dialogue was either unnecessary or seemed aimed at someone that isn't present. The, "So scared I was going to run into somebody, you know what I mean? There's just no way there's no exit, right?" This is something you'd say after the fact to someone else. Not while talking to yourself. "Is anybody here?" and "How the f*** do I get out of here?!" get the same points across in a more simple and coherent way. "I'm getting this weird smell of like cleaning chemicals or burnt plastic, maybe it's the ceiling, whatever it is, it's making my nose itchy" Ok...? "It all looks the same, just a different style of architecture." We can see that. This isn't a book on tape. The muttering "The only way is forward . . ." was perfect for the moment. The nervous talking to yourself in an unsettling situation was well done. Plot: S Tier
