Hey, just wanted to say that this was an awesome video, loved the art, the nostalgia in listening to your takes on the games i've played my self and you sharing stuff i've never seen or heard of before. Like Creatures Of The Fog and.... Beware ,OMG this done by ONE PERSON???? it is amaaaaazing!!!! even if it is by using kits and a prepped engine it must have taken so much dedication! It looks completely unique and the concept you described seems epic, cannot wait until i get a comp that can handle this game. You, yourself is not bad either, you have a VERY good way of setting this up and if you got a small team helping you, then it is an epic team. Not that my opinion or judgement matters, but i live by a few rules as they were written in stone, never hold back a compliment, if i think someone is good at something, has good qualities, has done something good, there is enough ppl focusing on the bad and being judgmental on the internet. I reserve that kind of criticism for fascists, and bigotry of all sorts, hopefully delivering one fist of constructive criticism and one of rage. But this is about you, not me, so i finish this by saying that you got a VERY charismatic and nice voice and use it epicly well did you take lessons?? Kind regards, Solo - Sweden
What's the music from 17:33? I've checked that it's right after Zerofuturism - Edelweiss, but Akira Yamaoka - Pianissimo Epilogue has piano instead of synth
My favorite was the pictures of giant creatures looming and walking in the distance, it gives me a feeling I can't explain, it's almost as if a portal was opened from another dimension
When I was a small child I used to vividly imagine gargantuan, grotest, otherworldly creatures just on the fog of the horizon as I rode in the car in the mornings. So you can imagine how much I love these things.
I actually never thought of it that way, but that's an interesting thought. Because some people keep certain insects as pets, I've read about people asking if their insects "recognize" them. Depending on the insect, it seems that the general consensus is that because you're so large, they don't exactly recognize you as another entity. You're more like a landscape, or a place to visit, for them. And they learn to associate that "place" with positive things. So the next time you put down a finger, they go "oh cool! I can visit flesh world! I always get cool stuff in Flesh world!"
@@urphakeandgey6308 i think insects do recognize you as a entity, they are evolutionairy required to be wary of larger beings, even if a living creauture was the size of a skyscraper a smaller one would definitely recognize its another creature because it must to survive, insects don't bite for no reason and they don't bite inanimate objects. they can also detect us by scent. insects know larger creatures exist, humans lucked out at being around the bigger end as theres nothing really that big enough, a interior of a dead blue whale is big enough to travel inside of but its still an animal. trees are living creatures but we see them moreso as parts of the enviroment like rocks
I have always loved Zdzisław Beksiński's art work, and the way Carbon explained the feeling of his work was spot on to the way I've felt when viewing his painting.
As a technical writer I think Beksinski's use of text is some of the scarriest when it does show up. Forget about two sentence horror, he might only need one word.
When the smoke from the Canadian wildfires came through my area, it literally turned the sun dark orange. The reflected light, even midday, looked like from streetlights. It was creepy as hell
There's always something fascinating about a world like Little Nightmares 2. It has clear signs that it used to function and all the people were fine, but now it's just a twisted shadow of what it was, where even the buildings in the city are unnaturally falling over like physics itself is in decay.
@@foxpro3002 yeah it's implied by hints throughout the game that the giant blob of eyes and flesh at the end is actually what became of all the people, such as those whose clothes are just discarded like they suddenly vanished.
8:00 the music with the view of the unknown creature walking in the distance next to a tornado & the shots of the shadows on the building walls is really fascinating to me & seems almost, peaceful. Like we weren’t meant to be there & the universe is getting back at us by getting rid of us.
The movie The mist almost captures this feeling of seeing eldritch horrors in a limited field of view but gives off more feelings of fear and hopelessness.
The only part of the movie where this really shows up is near the end, when the focus characters actually get in a car and venture forth into a Maine overrun by creatures from a world that never suffered the Cretaceous comet. And fog.
@@yozi1062 You mean the music from The Mist? The tune used at the end as they are driving away from the grocery store up until they encounter the Mile High Monster is "The Host of Serephim" by Dead Can Dance.
Probably just the music but I feel at a sense of peace seeing these images. Some of my favorite moments are being completely alone staring into nature.
absolutely love beksinskis art. my dad had a book of his pieces on a bookshelf in our kitchen, and growing up i always used to look at it when i was bored. disturbed the shit out of me as an 8 year old kid, but the art always stuck with me, it left me with feelings and memories i could never quite shake. recently rediscovered his art and am so glad i did, the time and effort that must be put into those pieces is incredible. was really cool of you to mention him in this video as i dont often see his work talked about. great channel.
I love this! I am a fan of liminal spaces and find them relaxing. I get a mixture of relaxed and uncomfortable feelings from these places because while they make you feel alone they also fill you with a sense of impending danger, as if not truly alone, just abandoned.
I have been (unknowingly) seeking out liminal spaces since I was a kid. It's a relief to know other people like it. At first I thought I was alone in the feeling of tranquility I get from those types of places, in real life or in photos.
I was looking for the artist for the Loneliness section for a while, and I finally found the artist, this is also for anyone who wanted to know, but had trouble hearing the name pronounced in the video, like me. Artist: Zdzisław Beksiński (24 February 1929 - 21 February 2005) He was a Polish painter, photographer, and sculpter; specializing in the field of dystopian surrealism. Also he was apparently murdered? The Wikipedia article was pretty interesting. Thank you for introducing me to this dudes art though, I have a new favorite artist. This video was perfect for what it's topic was!
I feel a bit like this way, but with a more melancholic and less mysterious atmosphere, when I'm travelling through the fallen kingdom of Hallownest in Hollow Knight, especially in the City of Tears: there is this sense of a desolated place, extinguished by its own ambition of greatness, where only the lost dreams and hopes of these abandoned subjects remain and spread out of their empty shells, like whispers that vanish before no one can hear them. And when we cross these rainy and lonely streets, we feel a profound nostalgia from the golden age of this place, a time, however, that we never lived...it feels the same way as when we encounter ancient ruins of a distant past, a miserable and pathetic scene compared to its passed prosperity
Hollowknight is the perfect incarnation of the phrase "beautiful melancholy". There's this oppressive sense of melancholy and decay that envelops the game, but it's doesn't necessarily feel negative. The area that captures this feeling the most is probably kingdom's edge, the music there is just celestial.
Or maybe the end cities and strongholds in minecraft, add onto those the desert temples... Multiple games have this... "thing", when they snort a pound of- ho tf did bstchld call it- _cocaìna colombìana_ and just... go HARD on the whole "show dont tell" Trust me *{I SAW MANY PLACES LIKE THESE}* *{ABANDONED HOUSES IN MANDELA COUNTY, 9LD DECREPIT PLACES IN YHARAM, DEAD HALLWAYS OF ONCE GREAT ACES OF SCIENCE}* *{I SAW ENDLESS DESERTS, RESTS OF CIVILIZATIONS, ISLANDS WITH NO LIFE OTHER THAN PLANTS AND INSECTS ON THE GRAND LINE, ABONDONED HOUSES IN THREE PORTLANDS SCHEDULED FOR DEMOLITION...}* *{THE QUESTION OF "WHAT WAS IT LIKE HERE BEFORE" IS NAUGHT BUT AN OLD BIT OF CODE FROM WHEN HUMANS WERE NOTHING MORE THAN HAIRLESS MONKEYS WHO LEARNED TO TIE SHARP STONES ONTO STICKS}* *_{A n d i Ł Ø V Ę Ï Ţ =)}_*
Idk why, but these dying worlds feel more calming than terrifying to me. It's like "You've made to the end, Congratulations! Now here's a front row seat to watch the rest of the end". It's the feeling you get when you have an hour left at work. The idea of no more responsibilities, expectations, judging, labels etc. There's nothing more I HAVE to do so might as well end it now. But, if I was able to see a being like the one at 5:50 swimming in the sky. I think it would be worth living a couple more years to see what else happens.
I had someone describe "Creatures in the fog" less an apocalypse and more the clean up crew. The apocalypse happened, you survived. The janitors are here to clean up what was missed.
And thank YOU for making these incredible, immersive, well though and well executed videos my man, truly one of the few channels out there to truly immerse us in these adventures
I'm always very happy to see this kind of chill video style. Its kinda of hypnotic, conforting like an old friend telling you a nice story with the perfect mood set. I just feel so relaxed. Honestly great job and as you said in the end. Soon.
Thank you for this. These kinds of atmospheric visuals fill me with an indescribable sense of calm, I love liminal spaces. Especially Todd Hido's photos. I also enjoy Roufanis' pictures, and Beksinski's paintings, and the game (Beware) looks amazing. I cannot believe I wasn't subscribed before. This is the kind of content I need, more of this, please.
something I keep going back to this is this 1 minute long browser game called "I am not what remains". It's a neat example of a journey through a dying world
Holy shit, the part with the car driving, I literally have dreams like this, often. Where I'm driving but cannot see in front of me, constantly feeling like I'm about to hit something but never do.
Clicked on this mindlessly whilst thinking this was something I could kinda tune out to while finishing up BOTW. Turns out, you had me hooked from the first few minutes. You earned yourself a sub.
I love the kind of Moon Prod cosmic horror videos It gives me the feeling of "everything has changed, there's no such thing as normal left to return to"
Absolutely fascinating documentary. Look deeper beyond the potential horror to see an interpretation of the spaces,the world around us,and ultimately our own souls.
Really nice video, a tour through the liminal world that seems to have shown up in the last 15 years or so My thoughts on this are that its amazing to see the artwork and experience these worlds, but that its also a bit saddening to me, its like as humans we're supposed to be exploring happy and bountiful places, not lonely and miserable places. I wonder if the modern world and its lack of ritual, superstition, mysticism, has caused us to view the world as a giant liminal space. I see artwork often involves humans reflecting their world in their art, someone who lives in a beautiful garden may paint a heavenly garden, while someone who lives in a warzone may paint hell, it seems today we paint isolation and melancholy.
When I first played Silent Hill in the 90’s it was the most disturbing game I had ever played, both immersive and unsettling, I remember feeling completely isolated. Job done 👍
Hello sir, this is an absolute masterwork. If you happen to see this i would ask you to consider giving us hours of what we are seeing. It is so beautiful, introspective, and metaphysical.
Always love seeing the tornado in the background with the huge monster at 8:01 & the empty village with the shadows of two people running for their lives etched into the wall @ 8:32. It gives me this weird feeling. Like a nostalgic feeling of what once was. The world is never going to be the same anymore & we’re gonna have to live with it.
That was genuinely incredible. Such a fascinating facet of art, exploration and wonder, I've always truly loved these worlds and experiences they evoke. The exposition in this video essay perfectly captures that wonder in a manner befitting of the open-ness, questioning, desolation and atmosphere that this art form give off. Incredible work, thanks for a mesmerising ride through dying worlds.
FINALLY! I stumbled across this video and clicked on it because I had never seen this channel before and had a great feeling about it. I couldn't watch it at the time so I started it to get a little in and have it at least in my history then turned my phone off. When I came back, the app had reset and it wasn't in my history so I spent a few hours just trying it as I'd forgotten the name of the channel and video and I'm so glad I found it.
There's something about the tone and vibe of this video that's tough to explain, but I absolutely love it. It's atmospheric, eerie, slightly creepy (but not scary), melancholic, mysterious, otherworldly, and very calming to watch. It's a weird feeling, almost hypnotic
I always get a weird sense of calm when I find videos like this, thank you, i even learned of a few things I haven't heard of before. You've probably heard about Tales from the Loop but if you haven't you'd appreciate it.
Well done! I have long had a fascination with abandoned structures and places and enjoy nothing more than a 4:00 a.m. walk on a foggy moonless night I have never been able to convey to others what it is that draws me to such things there's a certain fearful comfort derived from the experience a sense of somehow coming home. I know I sound like a madman but in the vague foggy night when the world is painted in grey and darkness places mundane in the clear brightness of daylight become surrealistic wonders
This reminds me of SCP-093. Not the big lumbering humanoids exactly. But the empty farming world of run down sheds and farmhouses with fields of wheat still growing but not a soul in sight. The sun continues to shine and is weirdly a little bright, but the world is empty. The feeling of exploring this world and finding evidence of vaguely religious social structure that sets this world as an almost parallel earth, but not really knowing where or when you are is what speaks to the true horror. The fog of a dead world is scary, but what about when it's unusually sunny and you can see across the fields for miles, but there's no one.
This is amazing, I often find myself lost in such places during my dreams... I tries so hard to get out of those using my motorcycle in those dreams. This has been happening now and then for many years. Thanks a lot for this video!
The feeling that large creatures looming in the distance gives that can’t be put into words that everyone’s talking about can probably be summed up like “Something’s coming. And it’s a lot bigger than us. The world belongs to these creatures now, whether we like it or not.”
The original silent hill unsettled me like nothing else, we have very dense fog at times here and it still gives me a thrill of dread in the early morning when sound is distorted
Cannot put into words how many times I’ve dreamed about things like these hiding ever so closely in the fog. Truly cosmic horror that leaves me wordless.
ita quite interesting, liminality. I lived in Ukraine for most of my life and i went back just recently to my home city and stayed in my house in the feilds all by myself...due to the war there is a curfew and you arent allowed in the city or anywhere for that matter from 11pm-4am. also due to the war there are constent air raid sirens, and since i lived in the country the only sirens were in the city and so i could here them but only faintly, to add to this feeling of liminality there were hundreds of frogs crocking and it gave this certain atmosphere that was so sureal. so many emotions went through my head and i now know the true feeling of liminality. it isnt nostalgia... it isnt a nice feeling...its the brokenness of memories and places that you love, its the deepest darkest feeling of loneliness.
~14:05 The time of my life when I felt the greatest loneliness was during my first year at the first time I went to university. I remember being in lecture halls with hundreds of people about my age, but I was completely outside of and removed from all of them, incapable of connecting and relating.
Firstly, this was a great exploration and thank you for curating these experiences. I would say that a game which is now really fitting in with the themes of liminal spaces, loneliness and the modern lifestyle is "Silent Hill 4: The Room". This game really does reflect the modern zeitgeist and fears that are now so prevailent - the fear of being forgotten and lost in a dying world.
That one with the tornado scared me the most. You see, I'm big on tornadoes. I know how fast those winds can get. So to see something just completely disregard it and casually walk around it without even being bothered by those high winds is utterly terrifying.
Something that captures an "odd" vbe like the game you reviewed and makes the player wonder a lot is a game called INSIDE. Big structures, luminous spaces, etc.

Thank you for bringing an aesthetic thats so personal and close to so many souls
Exactly my thoughts. It's just perfect, I love these aesthetics.

Hollowknight is the perfect incarnation of the phrase "beautiful melancholy". There's this oppressive sense of melancholy and decay that envelops the game, but it's doesn't necessarily feel negative. The area that captures this feeling the most is probably kingdom's edge, the music there is just celestial.

Fun fact- Word "Babka" is a short version of Russian word "Babushka" that means "Grandmother". P.S. The video is great, keep it up Carbon
When I first played Silent Hill in the 90’s it was the most disturbing game I had ever played, both immersive and unsettling, I remember feeling completely isolated. Job done 👍
Hello sir, this is an absolute masterwork. If you happen to see this i would ask you to consider giving us hours of what we are seeing. It is so beautiful, introspective, and metaphysical.
thank you algorithm! this channel is amaaaazing!
How does this not have more views? this is extremely well made
This content creator is going to blow up. Good stuff!
Always love seeing the tornado in the background with the huge monster at 8:01 & the empty village with the shadows of two people running for their lives etched into the wall @ 8:32. It gives me this weird feeling. Like a nostalgic feeling of what once was. The world is never going to be the same anymore & we’re gonna have to live with it.
This channel will make a fine addition to my collection.
Stranger, disturbing, and immersive. Good job!
Agreed, Żdzisław Beksiński would be amazed!
That was genuinely incredible. Such a fascinating facet of art, exploration and wonder, I've always truly loved these worlds and experiences they evoke. The exposition in this video essay perfectly captures that wonder in a manner befitting of the open-ness, questioning, desolation and atmosphere that this art form give off. Incredible work, thanks for a mesmerising ride through dying worlds.
6:12 I used to hunt these in Montana as a kid. They're not dangerous, but they will kill crops if you dont repel them
Things like this give me a feeling of comfort and love. Like being at one's grandmother's house. But my grandmother died.
Sorry to hear that, even though this was a year ago. Hope you're feeling better, and bless her soul❤️🩹
this what I love bout youtube! quality channels like these are a gem 🙏🏽
Amazing. It just is. This channel Should have like more then 100k subscribers or even more man.
before 35.7k subs nice
FINALLY! I stumbled across this video and clicked on it because I had never seen this channel before and had a great feeling about it. I couldn't watch it at the time so I started it to get a little in and have it at least in my history then turned my phone off. When I came back, the app had reset and it wasn't in my history so I spent a few hours just trying it as I'd forgotten the name of the channel and video and I'm so glad I found it.
There's something about the tone and vibe of this video that's tough to explain, but I absolutely love it. It's atmospheric, eerie, slightly creepy (but not scary), melancholic, mysterious, otherworldly, and very calming to watch. It's a weird feeling, almost hypnotic
I love this video, so much mistery, and terrifying places /creatures.
Man, your content is awesome
I always get a weird sense of calm when I find videos like this, thank you, i even learned of a few things I haven't heard of before. You've probably heard about Tales from the Loop but if you haven't you'd appreciate it.
I ADORE the looming, creatures beyond comprehension. So strange, and so beautiful, in a horrific way
Watched this on shrooms. Intensely inspiring. The music makes the images more digestible. Bell subbed
Thank you for putting into new things to explore.
Very nice! Beware is looking so good nowadays!
It's so beautiful! 🖤
I would love to see more in depth videos on stuff like this. Really explaining and showing unsettling games and atwork.
Well done! I have long had a fascination with abandoned structures and places and enjoy nothing more than a 4:00 a.m. walk on a foggy moonless night I have never been able to convey to others what it is that draws me to such things there's a certain fearful comfort derived from the experience a sense of somehow coming home. I know I sound like a madman but in the vague foggy night when the world is painted in grey and darkness places mundane in the clear brightness of daylight become surrealistic wonders
This reminds me of SCP-093. Not the big lumbering humanoids exactly. But the empty farming world of run down sheds and farmhouses with fields of wheat still growing but not a soul in sight. The sun continues to shine and is weirdly a little bright, but the world is empty. The feeling of exploring this world and finding evidence of vaguely religious social structure that sets this world as an almost parallel earth, but not really knowing where or when you are is what speaks to the true horror. The fog of a dead world is scary, but what about when it's unusually sunny and you can see across the fields for miles, but there's no one.
Awesome compilation! Really well done. Thank you!
This is amazing, I often find myself lost in such places during my dreams... I tries so hard to get out of those using my motorcycle in those dreams. This has been happening now and then for many years. Thanks a lot for this video!
The feeling that large creatures looming in the distance gives that can’t be put into words that everyone’s talking about can probably be summed up like “Something’s coming. And it’s a lot bigger than us. The world belongs to these creatures now, whether we like it or not.”
Basically the insects’ point of view of the changes humans suddenly made.
The original silent hill unsettled me like nothing else, we have very dense fog at times here and it still gives me a thrill of dread in the early morning when sound is distorted
This video gave me some nice nostalgia and overall brightened my night (:
Very enjoyable 👍
This feels like a mix of Nexpo and the Curious Archive and I absolutely love it
Cannot put into words how many times I’ve dreamed about things like these hiding ever so closely in the fog. Truly cosmic horror that leaves me wordless.
ita quite interesting, liminality. I lived in Ukraine for most of my life and i went back just recently to my home city and stayed in my house in the feilds all by myself...due to the war there is a curfew and you arent allowed in the city or anywhere for that matter from 11pm-4am. also due to the war there are constent air raid sirens, and since i lived in the country the only sirens were in the city and so i could here them but only faintly, to add to this feeling of liminality there were hundreds of frogs crocking and it gave this certain atmosphere that was so sureal. so many emotions went through my head and i now know the true feeling of liminality. it isnt nostalgia... it isnt a nice feeling...its the brokenness of memories and places that you love, its the deepest darkest feeling of loneliness.
Awesome stuff dude
Thanks man!
@@VirtualCarbon love your channel
This was just great. Loved it. You did very well with the choise of music to accompany us too.
Always amazing topics and well made videos, Keep it up!
~14:05 The time of my life when I felt the greatest loneliness was during my first year at the first time I went to university. I remember being in lecture halls with hundreds of people about my age, but I was completely outside of and removed from all of them, incapable of connecting and relating.
I'm grateful that you made this video. This sums all the liminal inspiration up I was searching for, thank you
Simply Brilliant. Subscribed within the first second.
Man, I REALLY shouldn't be watching this at midnight.
But the video is too good I can't look away.
Firstly, this was a great exploration and thank you for curating these experiences.
I would say that a game which is now really fitting in with the themes of liminal spaces, loneliness and the modern lifestyle is "Silent Hill 4: The Room". This game really does reflect the modern zeitgeist and fears that are now so prevailent - the fear of being forgotten and lost in a dying world.
ur def gonna blow up bro, amazing content 🔥🔥❤
I love those peaceful,abandoned,foggy and misty atmosphares.Sudden Goosebumps🔥
Congrats on 100k! this video is how i found you
the lack of sufficient light plays a huge rule in their theme
Great Video. Getting David Lynch vibes from some of these productions. ❤
I love this "giant creatures in the distance" style, like it's just so great
That one with the tornado scared me the most. You see, I'm big on tornadoes. I know how fast those winds can get. So to see something just completely disregard it and casually walk around it without even being bothered by those high winds is utterly terrifying.
I'm genuinely delighted to find a video that portrays this subject that interests me so much. I was fascinated by the images shown.
this channel is a gem. iam glad i found it. keep up the good work buddy!
"Trevor Henderson... haven't heard that name in years."
Thank you. This was an amazing video. Keep up the amazing work!
Something that captures an "odd" vbe like the game you reviewed and makes the player wonder a lot is a game called INSIDE. Big structures, luminous spaces, etc.
3:11 Waters of chaos have invaded all space!
Subscribed! That was a beautiful video. I hope you make more along the lines of this one! Great vid!
Liminal spaces are different from places where you feel like something is watching because liminal spaces are about the absence of life.
Just because something is watching, doesn’t mean there’s any life
BEWARE continues to be updated by its creator. It's been a "ride" since it was released sometime back.
great video! couldnt stop watching
