I'm really bad with horror, so I admit the "Viral Horror" style of things where my horror experience is mostly through watching someone else suffer through it for me on KZread does make it a lot more palatable, there's several games I'd never go anywhere near if not for the virtual hand-holding Markiplier and others provide. As someone who has a soft spot for FNAF, even after falling a bit off of it myself as things went on, I'm glad you weren't TOO harsh on the series. I was worried when this video uploaded it would be another case of "let's rip on all the FNAF-y horror things" style of video. Though looking back I can concede on a number of your points for most things past that. Frankly you were nicest to FNAF and Baldi which surprised me. Surprised somewhere among all the horror and adjacent games mentioned, you didn't take a Yandere Simulator pot-shot somewhere though.

For those who were morbidly curious: The slenderman stabbing was an incident back in 2014 where two girls tried to kill their friend as a sacrifice because they thought slenderman was real. Thankfully she survived and is alive today. As for the other two, I know at least one was diagnosed with schizophrenia. They were supposed to be jailed/placed in a mental facility for 25 years, but I think both (or at least one) got out early. Regardless, it absolutely tainted Slendermans' popularity and creepypastas as a whole.

It’s basically Slender, but with an interesting art style and stuff to do that actually increases or decreases your survival chances, which is what Slender needed!

One thing about the "lore" obsession is that it fills in way too much, spelling out in crystal clear the who what where why when and how of every part of the story. I think it's way more effective if horror gets done in broad strokes. You don't NEED the main villain to be a guy with dead children who is researching how to become an immortal robot and using his pizzeria as a front to both perform the experiments and get subjects, him being just a serial killer whose motives are unknown but who for some reason prefers that location is more effective.

i think your distinction to start at 2010 is really good because amnesia is very much a 'viral' game compared to corpse party which is just a popular horror game, theres a difference.

It amazes me how much of a profile Poppy and the Ink Machine has. So many people hated the ending of Bendy and the Ink Machine had, but, at the time, I just kinda shrugged and said “Ya. What do you expect? The story hadn’t established anything more than ‘creepy ink thing thinging around.’” And Poppy’s Playtime will do the same thing. It IS doing the same thing. Why do people expect the game to turn out different just because the animation is better?

I love that most Mascot Horror is about evil companies… Now made by evil companies.

While Treesicle did kinda start off the theory that Baldi is a criticism of our education system, it's one that I kinda agree with. The idea of teachers being so arrogant that there's hardly a dialogue between them and students can and has become a reality. If there's any "lore" it seems to be more just a satire of lore and the real lore is just the meta fact that school kinda sucks. And it looks like Mystman didn't even intend that. It's just Sonic Schoolhouse without Sonic but just as much uncanny.

Been a fan ever since the original punchout video, and I really love how consistently polished your videos are. You manage to mix together a serious discussion or history lesson of a subject while easily mixing in jokes so seamlessly, and I'm here for it.

Just some things to correct about the Fnaf lore stuff to make it seem less stupid (it is still stupid, I agree it should've ended at 6 but here we are). In Custom Night, it's been confirmed that William was not sent to hell and, in fact, did not die, he was being kept alive by one of his victims (Golden Freddy) so that they could torture him for his crimes and that everything in Custom Night wasn't William's afterlife, it was a living nightmare induced by this spirit. Unfortunately, by the spirit doing this, they may have accidentally allowed William to escape death again which leads into Fnaf VR where he infused his soul into some of the circuit boards in the electronics for the pizzeria (how did that happen? Don't ask me... actually, if we're taking the books into consideration then it could be that his body exploded buuuuuut I'm not gonna say that's completely canon yet) and also there may or may not be somebody who knows this and is helping William due to Fazbear Entertainment specifically requesting that the circuit boards be used and that, in Security Breach, Vanessa with William's spirit possessing her was sent to the Pizzaplex as a security guard despite the higher ups saying otherwise since she has no prior experience in that field... this person/people are never mentioned again so it may be possible that someone other than William is in on the plan but we'll just to have to wait and see until Security Breach's (free) DLC comes out. Thank you for reading these pointless Fnaf lore facts that I have stored in my brain and I wish I could erase and leave room for something more productive, I hope you have a great day! (Also, I'm hype as hell for the DLC because, from the teasers, it seems like the setting is the collapsing Pizzaplex, the animatronics are incredibly damaged and, if they improve the AI for most of the animatronics, I think that this is going to be a great addition to the series, we'll just have to wait and see though)

Tbh, I quite like what they’re doing with Baldi by making it more of a puzzle solving game than a horror spoof and it can be pretty fun. Also, as someone who liked FNaF and has been there through it all, I do agree the series is starting to falter quite a bit, but the fangames like The Joy of Creation, the One Night at Flumpty’s trilogy, and recently things like JRs and The Glitched Attraction are what’s keeping me in the series mostly.

The random door knocking sound effects sprinkled throughout the video raised my anxiety far more than I'd like to admit.

i know its not the main point of the video, but im glad you touched on programmers just trying their best to do their job. developers are often really poorly treated by big game companies, and even indie devs can have a lot of pressure put on them. especially if you're one of if not the only programmers for a game

My friend introduced me to your channel with this vid, and this hits the nail right on the head with how modern horror is presented nowadays, This was really entertaining! Though I have a softspot for some of it when I first played it, it’s unfortunate how much the genera is now being exploited. I really appreciate some of the gems who aren’t trying to be “media titans” with their game (Baldi and Tattletail honestly deserved better). Even on the lore side of things horror nowadays try’s to go for a lot of it just flat out feels… The same. I really hope someday, someone out there will put some of this lore stuff aside and do what Scott did. He didn’t chase the Slender trend after all. Don’t try to be the “Next FNAF”.

Yeah when it comes to horror games as a medium I feel they really lost their luster when they went from being about producing an experience to producing a phenomena. While it's fine to strive for fame and popularity you need to have a vision for where that fame will take your franchise if you choose to run with it. As for the stuff you didn't talk about in this video I would love to see some more in-depth discussion about the RPG Maker Horror games (the games that introduced me to the genre and really sparked many an indie developer, their influence on the genre cannot be understated) and maybe even a deeper discussion about the bait-and-switch style horror like Doki Doki, Don't Hug Me, ETC.

Nitro rad mentioned how having no weapons is a horror double edge sword. Because the only option is to run and hide. So it _has_ to work. He mentioned how the old silent hills had this element of uncertainty. If you run and hide it doesnt have to work. So it might not. If you fight, you might not make it. And since ammo is limited, every shot counts. Tormented souls and the evil within 1 & 2 had this. He said that TEW 1 isnt a horror game. But 2 was praised by him for it. And even used an example of the photo monster with how it makes the same noise whether it found and is chasing you or is just moving to another room. He makes a break for it and manages to escape at the last second because it _did_ find him. He then says "i couldve turned around and fight it but because there was this sense of panic and uncertainty i decided to run" Wordvomit.exe has finished executing

I think one thing that really helped Bendy become as popular as it was besides the videos was the songs. Especially anything by DAGames. Those songs are still absolute bangers even if the game is trash. Also, I have a freind who really likes Bendy, but hates the games. She says that she mainly enjoys it due to the style and the genuinely good fanfanction people have made. Considering the game was just written by fans due to the incompetence of the directors, I can see why.

these viral horror games actually encapsulate a huge issue I have with stories in general really well. that being; over abundant lore. lore is meant to be a nice supplement to the main story, it can help flesh out the world and characters if used properly and make the main story more engaging, but it's basically a side salad while the actual story is the main course. but these types of games focus SO MUCH on cryptic lore and foreshadowing that there's no actual story to be seen which makes all this lore completely worthless because you don't care. we don't care about the story that happened fifty years ago, we want the story that is happening now but there is none which makes the actual game shallow as a puddle and just make you wish that you were going through the much more interesting story that the lore is constantly building up

32:15 Well, everyone, we did it. Bumbles now has to release the “Jack complains about the FNAF Storyline” cut. Next goal will be to get the SpongeBob Movie Game video to 1 million views so we can read his college essays on the movie!

Just as a note, would *absolutely* be willing to watch ya talk about RPGmaker/WOLF RPG horror games for at least 30 minutes. ...Or less, depending on how much time ya wanna talk about 'em.

we need a feature-length Bumbles video about RPG Maker games from Yume Nikki to Omori, i'd wait all the time necessary to watch that

with a caveat - one without Yume Nikki Yume Nikki would probably be served best by a separate video, because the entire culture of YN impact and a giant pile of fangames would take focus away from other considerably less or barely known titles that could use the spotlight instead ~cough~ Pert-em-Hru ~cough~

I want him to talk about Lisa The Painful even it is for 4 minutes

I’m probably gonna be blasted and considered to be some whiny 5-year-old baby, but I legit find jumpscares scary. At least half of it. Half the time I get completely taken by surprise and feel the top of my head get tingly. But the other half, it feels like a rickroll

You know what’s funny? You managed to bring back more nostalgia by playing ‘Clock Tower’ from Epic Mickey over the Bendy section than most of this entire video, and I lived through the FNAF era as a nerdy ass middle schooler! I’d love to see you discuss that game, possibly also the history of Disney Interactive

"You're making a Jonestown Rollercoaster" is a sentence that never existed until this video and i don't know how to feel about that XD

A spooktacular treat for my birthday eve, Bumbles talking about FNAF is gonna be real interesting! FNAF 2's gotta be the best one, but the OG FNAF did the best with the "uncanny valley" premise that set the series to stardom, I feel.

"why is foxy a pirate when no one else is pirate themed" i always assumed it was a reference to how one of the animatronics that hangs out with chuck e. cheese is inexplicably cowboy'd up

Literally two days later and Joey Drew Studios uploads a video saying how the trailer, presumably for the BATIM Sequel, is coming out Tomorrow. Sounds about right.

I know you said you don't blame FNAF but honestly I think what blew the whistle more than anything else on cashing in on "horror for kids" was Scott himself doing it. 3 was when FNAF obviously should have ended, 4 was clearly the series buying into its own BS with the 'deep lore' and Scott actively encouraging more theorizing by throwing new stuff out every time it seemed like everything was 'solved', and everything after 4 is more of a cash-in than the last with pizzeria sim looking more and more like a freak incident ever as time goes on. Scott so publicly milking the franchise to death for every dime and still retaining his popularity was like blood to shark for anyone on the fence about whether they thought they could get away with doing it themselves. And that's not even getting into what kind of people Scott was giving all of said money to....

Fantastic vid man! It's so interesting to see someone discuss games being discussed from such a similar perspective, being near identical in age. You've been making banger after banger and I look forward to whatever you make next!

That intro was too spooky.

i like how you theme the cards for each video rather than just using the same ones every time

"Did you know Ammesia got a sequel" Doesn't it have three sequels?

Five Nights at Freddy’s is kinda like Jaws because they were both great, but they completely ruined the horror genre of each their respective medium.

I just love at this point some "horror" game devs are trying hard to appeal to MatPat of all people. Seriously? Appeal to the people first and make a good game with a worthwhile experience than just one dude who makes theories

Bumbles….your opinions on these games are absolutely spot on, infact despite me being young, I knew I had the power to make a video to talk about what’s a good game and what’s a bad game. But you beated me to it. And I’m glad you beated me.

You talking about how taking away the option of combat enhances horror reminds me of something someone said that honestly goes in the complete opposite direction: "Having the option taken away just feels unsatisfying to me. Like, I get the feeling they’re going for, but in some ways, it actually makes them LESS scary for me, because there’s no question of “okay, what’s my better option here, do I have the means to deal with these enemies, or should I just try to avoid them?” In a “you have to run” setting, it’s just pure “Okay, just have to avoid it.” It… feels kinda boring to me with no other options. Becomes more of a stealth game than a horror game, and I don’t usually enjoy stealth games that much."

I agree with this. In all honesty, OG RE3 exemplified how combat can still enhance horror through one simple mechanic: Nemesis. The game doesn't punish you for running from Nemesis, but it does reward if you choose to fight him. To someone not familiar with Nemesis as a whole, it creates the perfect storm of false security. They can fight Nemesis early on and win, leaving them to think "...Why was this thing so important to get cover billing on the game?" And continue on, only to be nearly done with the RPD and have NEMESIS JUMP THROUGH A WINDOW WITH A ROCKET LAUNCHER. Boom. Horror *With* a combat element.

Its different when the game is older as the standards were different

I kind of wish you had mentioned Tattletail, but because of how obscure the game is now, I can't blame you if you haven't even heard of it.

Thank you for a rant on the FNAF storyline, I will be soberly waiting

I unironically really want the Jack complains about the FNAF storyline cut because I love listening to him and that rant was great

I’d say Withered Bonnie’s design is pretty cool and scary, it does a lot with a little.

Deeply disappointed this video didn't even shout out the best viral horror game, the scary maze game

You mean the Photon Aerospace Control Engineer

Fnaf World ends with a boss battle against Scott Cawthon himself. He calls out the fan base for demanding more and more out of him and not letting him rest while literally throwing the fourth wall at the player.

16:55 Frick, you actually got me with that knocking for a few moments (until I realized I'd heard that soundbyte before). But it made me second-guess every random sound I heard for the rest of the video in an oddly unsettling way. Not sure if that was the plan, but it sure was effective.

Around 32:30, “Calvinball Rules” was a blast of nostalgia I was not prepared for, 10/10 reference

I literally cannot find the juicer I bought 5 years ago, and this video got me feeling attacked.

The random door knocks are a nice touch and totally got me the first time through the video. Bravo!

“Everyone is scared of the dark. It could have a scary animal or hepatitis in it.” Help I am in SHAMBLES🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I love how his reason for not talking about ddlc is just because of how genuinely terrifying it is.

16:58 That knocking would've scared me if only I had my right earbud on.

"William Afton on a USB Drive" got me into a coughing fit because i was drinking soda in the middle of that and could not hold back my laugher. Thank you.

Fun fact, Slender: The Arrival also had Joseph DeLage, Tim Sutton and Troy Wagner (The Marble Hornets Team) on board and actually helped write the script for initial release

In addition, Marble Hornets got a comic continuation, Troy went on to make a series in the same universe called Eckva, and Marble Hornets' influence ended up causing well over a hundred series, such as EverymanHybrid, TribeTwelve, DarkHarvest, 2FreeEnigma, and I Could Make You Care. There's a bunch of drama in several of the communities but some of the sub-communities are alright

My shift today just started so this will help it go by so much faster ♡ Thanks dude!!
