I thought it was spooky until the whole "I will tear open the sky and make it rain blood" thing, like it can't just be a weird monster that watches you sleep, it has to be apocalyptic AND religious
i took it as just the raw power of his hallucinatory effects, like i doubt thats actually happening but it'll for sure look like it for his victims
that or like, its symbolic or something
after all, if he did have that power, he wouldnt waste time just watching people sleep
it was kinda religious from the start though with the Psalms verse being part of the required watching equipment
i think its reasonable hes some kind of demon, or at least a ghost under very demonic influence
Am I the only one that doesn't find horror scary, like at all? Can someone explain the appeal to me? It's literally just a movie or a video game or some shit, it is literally incapable of hurting you, the entire reason we have the fear instinct. Drop me in a cage with a bear I will shit my pants. But literally how do people get scared of movies about guys running around stabbing teenagers. They're not real.
It's more about the atmosphere it creates and the symbolism and themes of the story. If a horror game game only tries, and can only, trick a split second fear response out of you then it's trash.
You're just not suited for horror, anon. Horror as a genre is useless unless (you) can actually get immersed in the narrative, whether it's directly in the first person or empathizing with someone else's plight from the third person. Some people just aren't able to do that well or get taken out of it by problems with the medium, such as like Vidya AI being so repetitive or certain forms of movie editing that make you notice the "cracks" so to speak.
I mean this kind of applies universally, but horror is the genre that suffers the most from it because it relies on the viewer/player actually inserting themselves into the situation in some form.
I like the aesthetics, but I don't really get frightened, despite being a paranoid person.
I prefer the slowburn aesthetic stuff over the jumpscare gorey movies.
most of the internet "horror" stuff now is driven by morbid curiosity
if you ever get your hands on a VR headset for unrelated reasons you should try out some VR horror games
>Can someone explain the appeal to me?
It's not appeal.
consider the following: Animals in zoos will go "crazy" if they cannot move about like they do in the wild. now look at the humans who live in urban areas and have never done anything natural. draw your conclusions
i realized the Absolute State of youtubers when everyone for some reason concluded that the entirety of doctor nowhere's channel was all one singular ARG when theyre clearly separate stories

I found him a bit spooky until he spun his tiny little claw.

I think it's goal is to amass the power to do that, like it doesn't just give you hallucination fricking wats your spine

what is this thing
>I will rend the sky and millions will fall
>also check this thing out
>look at it go!
>also check this thing out
>look at it go!
That was so funny. What's the opposite of a jumpscare? A jumplaugh?
tbh i didnt think it was a claw, but whatever he was birthing clawing its way out
This wasn’t scary. Zoomers can’t make anything scary.
new 'ak
i tried
heh nice
gem!

maybe it's just low iq and you are incapable of self inserting and immersing yourself in the narrative. that being said I'm the same

to be fair, the TOE stuff is definitely an ongoing story
yeah, which is why every TOE video is titled TOE
everything else is separate and nobody seems to get that
I just can't understand the analogy horror stuff at all, I guess.
Probably because you're not a moron
It's pretty metaphorical
Doctor Nowhere and Urbanspook feel like the only analog horror creators that can actually draw and not just stretch a police sketch out in photoshop
