Four Giggly Idiots Laugh At A Bad ARG

About a month ago I discovered a Minecraft Horror Series that astonished me. Not only was it just not scary, but it also stole ideas from other creators and was boring as sin. So, I invited my friends to blindly react to the video, but what I didn't expect was to get distracted by my friends insanity and losing track of the plot relatively quickly. What was supposed to be a scathing review of a terrible ARG turned into a giggle-fest at crappy TikToks.

    I like how they litterally just stop looking at the arg like 2 seconds in
  • @explodeinto2
    The "With the Boys" Phenomenon is crazy cause the dumbest shit becomes peak humor for no reason
  • @Beepers559
    I find it funny how they went from “mediocre ARG” to “finding crack” and a guy beating up a VR person.
  • @gnogman
    my favourite genre of video is when it’s just a group of friends watching something stupid then halfway through they get distracted and watch something else
  • @cerulity32k
    > spends 5 minutes watching a bad arg > switches to tiktoks for the rest of the video > bullies a child for more time than the arg was watched for
  • @donutguy804
    I love how half the video is laughing at completely unrelated videos
  • @jaramiahredford
    Theres a YouTube channel called "LPC 9929" its a guy who comments all over YouTube saying he's "infertile from eating scented candles" and on his community tab he rates the candles in broken English While hoarding enormous quantities of random stuff. Hilarious ARG. Its like ARG satire

    using the withered foxy jumpscare as a censor is so funny for no reason

    I watched this entire ARG and I can confidently say that it's either bait for bigger youtubers like RetroGamingNow, or it's just made by a really, really impressionable kid, but I think the first option is the most likely: -From the very start, the ARG follows a generic premise that we've seen a million times: non gender specific human being of a darker hue (original character DO NOT STEAL) is stalking the player, then weird things happen (E.g: The game starts acting weird, there's signs because of course there's signs, the computer crashes and makes a Wii noise [Classic ghost stuff], etc.) -There's a lot of the ARG that is just on its knees, BEGGING to be analyzed, rewatched, and reviewed; the wall of signs in front of the player's house is the most egregious example: it's just a wall of blurry, generic text that's meant to "intrigue" you and either pause or replay the video, upon further examination it's a journal that...basically reveals nothing, it's just lore for the sake of lore, none of it matters because it's JUST a journal, it doesn't even make sense contextually: You're trapped in a minecraft world and your first thought is to make a journal? Short-sighted and nonsensical detais like these make good videos go bad. -Like you said, it's piggybacking and straight up copy pasting ideas or concepts from other unrelated ARGs that the creators probably didn't give permission, even if markus101 went so far off the rails that it ended up back at the railyard, I highly doubt the creator of Mark101 was expecting (or wanted) people to do something like this. -It's so catclysmically lazy that they couldn't even be bothered to make a chase sequence in an episode where the protagonist is being chased, he just runs in random directions (at times doubling back on himself) while turning around like he's being chased by spy tf2, you can't even blame it on old minecraft or lack of experience, whoever's behind this can clearly do foley and edit existing sound effects, as shown in LITERALLY THE FIRST VIDEO EVER UPLOADED. -It's just so generic that it feels like it's trying to play it safe, and what little it tries to do by itself clearly doesn't work: All the traps and stuff that are set up for the player mean nothing because the player just keeps coming back like nothing happened, it's so focused on being formulaic that the few times it tries anything new, it immediately reverses it, because if the main character dies or gets lost then they won't be able to stretch the series out for another 20 episodes. -It's painfully staged, it's not even trying to pretend like it's an ARG, the "help" video is by far the worst, it's the one with the obsidian walls and the signs, you can't just put signs everywhere and pretend like it's your story, you have to do something else, it's the minecraft equivalent of putting black text on a white background on the screen. -It's always acting like there's a deeper meaning to things, playing into the idea that this is just bait for ignorant essay youtubers who just see non gender specific human being of a darker hue and old minecraft versions and go "I could make a video out of this". -The story is so painfully not scary and not engaging that it's a sin, the entire point of an ARG is a story you're supposed to follow and interact with, and yet the only form of interaction we ever have is reading an update page where 70% of the page is just "???" because that's ScAAaAaaAaary -Unrelated, but I absolutely HATE, and I mean HATE, the "cut to black when spooky noise" thing, it makes me want to strangle someone, the creators must think I'm a baby, it's one of the most generic and boring ways to end a video, and it's apparently supposed to make me wonder what happens next. The only thing it makes me wonder is how little the creators think of the viewers. There's probably more that I missed, but still, the fact that this list is that long is just a sign of how little the creator/s cared about both the series and the viewer's experience, you made the right choice by choosing to watch random shorts, because they actually provide some form of entertainment, primitve as they can be, at least you're not staring at a black screen, to enjoy fractured you'd need to be lobotomized and barely sentient, then and only then could you get any form of stimulation out of it. You know that Gorillaz song that's supposed to be a parody of generic pop that tries to be deep and ends up being worse than literally nothing? Rockit? This is literally that, minecraft man walks to the something blablablablablablabla, old minecraft blablablablablablabla, non gender specific human being of a darker hue blablablablablablabla, the end.

    there should be WarioWare D.I.Y. ARG that ends with Wario coming out of hell and kiling the protagonist to deatth
  • @maxxcrafting7519
    My favorite genre of youtube video is "friend group looks at stupid shit and somehow makes it 300 percent funnier"
  • @gaffythefox
    as someone who enjoys creepy minecraft series, i must say the scariest part is always when the skin proxy to make skins work in alpha and beta stops working
