The History of Sonic EXE l Novika (ft.  

Now that you've quantified the trope down into these simple to follow steps, it's just as easy to take this trope and put a spin on it that actually is a little spooky. Probably not terrifying, because c'mon, nobody takes EXEs seriously anymore for good reason. Here's my proposition to make an *actually* spooky EXE story. - Completely remove ".EXE" from the title of the pasta. ".EXE" leaves a bad first impression on the reader due to the inherently cliché nature of most .EXE stories, the viewer is going to be expecting cheap tricks and won't be nearly as interested in the story. Let's try a different type of naming scheme. Maybe the version being played is apparently some kind of unfinished "beta build" of the game. - All that blood and gore? Get it the FUCK out of here. Maybe keep a little body horror but keep it at an absolute minimum. Instead we're going to be cramming some abstract horror into the story instead. Create a convoluted story and confusing imagery that purposefully sits dead in the middle of uncanny valley. Uncomfortably unfinished cutscenes with no music or voices that cut off mid-way through the cutscene. If we want to scare someone we're going to be using psychological terror, a much more effective means of scaring someone than "Aaah!! Spooky!!! Loud and in your face with blood!!!". - We want the game to be weird right off the bat. Sure, maybe it seems like a legitimate playable game at first but we have to make it obvious that it's a very old and unfinished version of said game. Instead of an immediate switch in gear to spooky imagery, we're going to use a slow and gradual descent into madness as the game just gets weirder and weirder, becoming more self aware and more intense, with stranger atmospheres and locations that are sit waaay to low in uncanny valley. - The last and final piece, is that this story isn't a story. It has to be a game that the player experiences. A story cannot properly convey the same emotions and feelings as a game. When you're making a creepypasta based off a game, you need to MAKE a game. Otherwise, it's just a myth. You put all these together, and you may just have yourself an unnerving experience that sticks with the player.

@@sympleton7439 Agreed - for every 20,000 bad creepy pastas, you have something like the Mario 64 Iceberg, or Catastrophe Crow, or SOME of the Anti-Piracy Screen things floating around. I have a script called "The Playthrough" that's similar to what you've listed.

Bruh

And of course “hyperrealistic”. There’s an entire troll pasta about this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eWB-x4afO08.html

@@sympleton7439 Absolutely a better style to these stories. I love the idea of creepy or scary atmosphere. Tip though, a good idea is to also go for psychological scares that creep them out with no jumpscares or loud noises

I said I appreciate Muta reading a bad creepypasta, I already know that YuriOfWind is still doing them.

yeah

The wave of nostalgia hit when he did it :(

@Sadist Fake Bootleg Tiki does he really tho? Hes abandoning his channel every few months last i checked

just seeing that intro after all these years sent that chill of nostalgia through my body :') so many good memories

@@averin5193 you and me both man

raspberry tickle bear

that tickles my pickle.

@@manboy4720 :flushed:

Agree

Me two mate

YES!!! I miss Haunted Gaming

I missed those days... but I don’t think I should check his new content because... it’s been a long damn time.

@@vanndymaywho1910 deep web browsing is fairly good. He's kind of attempting to get himself back into horror stuff, but he wants to be himself not buckle to what others say

@@lycieae8879 thats not exactly true, hes been doing stuff that people ask for, like the meme and twatter videos. If anything hes buckled a long time ago and its been pretty successful for him, just not his older forms of content (obviously)

Number 15, Burger King foot lettuce.

8 years ago...

@@CreeperthanPasta, Yep, quite the throwback... And it will get even longer for those in the elderly age, probably one of the most nostalgic memories we would have.

i have an aswer. edgy children who think blood + animal is scary lol

@@katodo8598 it is cuz pewdiepie streamed the game+sonic

Same reason other trash managed to stay relevant, like Jeff the Killer: edgy fanboys that don't know better.

Kinda cool that SEGA themselves acknowledged it in their twitter, so it’s as canon as Herobrine in Minecraft lol.

ig liking sonic.exe is like a guilty pleasure i still watch luigikids content cuz ngl some of the fangames for sonic.exe are actually pretty good at being scary like the pc port game

100 IQ more like 0 IQ

YEEEEEEES! Bob.Exe is another favorite of mine next to ISDY and Warioware Not So Smooth Moves!

@@AmethystRebellion I just remembered Hitler.exe and those smechsy pink eyes....

@@Echs_One I remember Mario.exe and I thought it was cringe lol and why does every creepypasta need a black eye with a red pimple and blood on the eyes

i really like sonic.exe fan games like spirit of *heck* And nightmare beginning

Is this that "Succabus" creepypasta? I remember watching Yuriofwind's Bullshit Creepypasta Storytime video on that one years ago.

That's one damn character development

@@SSFplayer2 one comparable to those of the creepypastas themselves

That was my favorite fucking trollpasta.

SAME!! Every time I hear this story I only get flashbacks to things off that troll like *_"The little swastikas was cum soaked and upside down, the figgel1941, was now instead, figgel69 and the water had turned white! LIKE SEMEN!...Except it looked SUPER ULTRA MEGA HYPER REALISTIC."_*

The line of, "I'm a BIIIIIIG Hitler fan" will never not be great

faxxxx

I liked the story and thought it was interesting. But in no way is it a “masterpiece” JC went waaaaay overboard with that rant

PaleBlueTARDIS he realized that his existence is a mistake and is now looking for a way to end his suffering

Source? I’d love to see it. EDIT: 5:22 is the time stamp. Glad to hear he’s calmed down a bit. Haven’t seen much of the remake, but from what I’ve read, it’s at least a little better. Still not good, but he’s at least trying to improve.

He's also a sex weirdo.

You guys had an encounter is what I'm suspecting?

Yep. It's me, Julie Senna again. That time I am on my art account (I dont have any good video and I am trying to have courage to post my drawings...) anyway, I still have the ExE on my nickname. I just can't let go this little ExE just because of the old and funny creepypasta hahahaha. Good video by the way, I love it. Good day for everyone ❤

walter

Alright, I'll create a sonic.exe cult now

Welp guess i wasnt the only one scared by the outro lmao

UM ACHSUALLY ACCORDING TO OFICHAL SANIC. E XE LORE THE NAME OF THE CHARACTER IS "X"
