- I'm sorry for parts of the video being muted, some guy content id claimed multiple parts of the video even though the thing he's claiming on his channel is literally royalty free. SORRY AGAIN!
Oh god I did not intend for this video to be this long dear god what have I done. Was meant to be like a 30-40 minute video but I recorded way longer that I should have apparently. I said towards the end of the video but let me reiterate that I don't want to be a minecraft exclusive youtuber, but I would enjoy continuing to play fear nightfall if you would like to see more. I will finish Minecraft PSX sometime probably within the month, please do not comment that you want more minecraft on every video I upload until then though. Also something cool is that two parts of this video apparently have already gotten copyright claimed due to music used in the modpack, that's incredibly annoying so if you're one of the first people to see this video just know that if you see the part where I say spider four times around the 34-36 minute mark just know you're very special, and something around the 1:12 -1:13 minute mark got copyright claimed but RUclips wouldn't actually tell me that initially only when fixing the other one which also means I can't view what it was at that time. I would get annoyed at the modpack creator for using copyrighted stuff but honestly I doubt they did it looks like its just some jackass claiming generic horror music in order to try and get easy money so I'm not blaming the modpack or the dev. And days after uploading parts continue to get cooyright claimed, if audio starts to drop in quality it’s because I used RUclips’s edit out the music feature so sorry, but some Jackhole keeps copyrighting music in this video

As long as it doesn’t become Roblox horror I might be okay
Probably the scary thing about this video. Doomed to play mein kamph for all of eternity.

At what point does Minecraft “horror” just become an unfun clusterfuck of random assorted features trying to make a coherent experience but failing miserably at it
this point
Thats what happens when people who don't understand horror try to make a horror mod. Also tbf it's a modpack not a well planned singular mod so a clusterfuck of random assorted features is kinda expected.
It's partially because of how lazy Minecraft horror is. Jumpscaring people repeatedly and killing them repeatedly with OP mobs isn't horror, it's just cheap.
Wow you hit that on the dot.
As a buncha people in this comment said- it already quite is.
A bunch of modders for Minecraft either don't understand what horror is or opt for using the cheapest kind of horror.
From the Fog at least attempts to build dread rather than just consantly jumpscare you and a bunch of mods in the Fear NIghtfall seem to also attempt that- like the one which let's mobs break into your house (this is shit no mincrafters expect, their house not being so impervious as before).
But mostly, as I said in other comment- Minecraft horror should be about dread, that something is not as much as jumping at you, but is always after you and you find aftermaths, not active activity
Herobrine's actually a real one in this mod pack, bro just checks on you and that's it
"you doing good? aight cya"
It's actually funny how Herobrine can see you getting jumped and just think "Damn bro fight back"
checks on you, dont look at em cause he dont like it 😂
@@rhust3522 herobrine in my wrld was watching me get jumped by 3 iron golems he made unfriendly and started a raid 😭 bro really had it out for me
He stole my gear, dude just got my full iron and teleported away
the scariest part of this modpack is how poorly designed it is; like the game can only be so scary if you can't even go outside to see it because you keep dying instantly
Even if you try and stay inside mobs just find a way in, even then from the running around I did nighttime doesn't even seem that crazy
@@Friend_Akinda just seems to rely on darkness and spooky sfx every 2 seconds = horror
yea at one point the only viable strategy becomes building a skybase and just peacefully farming wheat up there
Its because you need to put a large wall defending your property, then you have to walk the walls regularly. It also helps when your brightness is all the way down, and you change the fog to max for the shader. shits spooky. oh yeah, Im also only rendering like 4 to 5 chunks in front of me. I also upped the spawn rate of certain spooky mobs.
@@ThatMS this is still just a plethora of random cheap horror mods mashed together and called it a modpack. I've seen low download count kitchen sink tech packs be more coherent than this.
every minecraft horror mod equates scary with spawning a gazillion mobs at a time and then are like BAHHHH!!!! YOU GOT FUCKED
OooooOoooo SCaRy earraping sound
@@anaxolotl4119this shit is more annoying then scary mannn someone who actually knows horror needs to make a proper horror mod
@@zsidontknowwhattoname4395 the one who made cave dweller (gargitron) knows horror its just that its quite literally impossible to make nextbots and minecraft scary
Honestly, I thought that the first 18 minutes or so of this mod looked great. It looked beautiful, and made enough of an atmosphere to be noticeable while not too in the face. And then the creeper blew up and destroyed everything from the other side of a wall, and that kind of made it less fun.
It has potential to be great but the insane spawn rates of everything ruin it completely
the reason the creeper blew up was actually because there was no corners to his house, they don't normally do that
It would be cool as a farming/ building modpack if they just removed the mobs
@@PantheonofCylinders Nah it's because they poorly configured the Enhanced AI mod. It gives creepers and a lot of other mobs the ability to see through walls. It also allows creepers to basically go off near player placed blocks in the way of it, or even launch like 30-40 blocks into the air to explode on impact. There's also a chance it'll be super-charge level damage if not higher. It really isn't fun. Oh also Zombies will just sit there and mine through anything, even obsidian, due to that mod. Especially since most zombies will be digging ones.
@PantheonofCylinders i would say youre right except for the second time where it just blew up his wall.
Minecraft has a lot of potential for cosmic horror. Modders should be trying to recreate the feeling of entering the Nether for the first time with unnerving alien dimensions.
Instead of fear of the unknown, we know exactly what happens in all of these horror mods: Jumpscare after jumpscare.
or even the skulk is so far the best implementation of horror in minecraft imo. the whole "ancient civilisation has disappeared and been replaced by mushroom things" is already creepy but is actually interesting
@@yaoitiddieexpert1486what are you talking about
@@zsidontknowwhattoname4395 oh its easy to explain. i thinkg that the skulk is so far the best implementation of horror in minecraft imo. the whole "ancient civilisation has disappeared and been replaced by mushroom things" is already creepy but is actually interesting
@@yaoitiddieexpert1486 oh ya I ageee the deep dark actually is terrifying
@@yaoitiddieexpert1486not really the warden kinda just shows up and then kills you through walls lol. The whole "he's blind but can smell and hear you" is a cheap cop out to not actually make the mob blind
25:48 Nothing says nail-biting, pulse-pounding horror like a needlessly involved meat prepping system!
i agree so much like realism doesnt equal scary (or fun to play)
Not to mention it kinda makes it easier because you get more loot per cow
@@mushroomsalad5525That's subjective
as someone who’s actively playing with this pack on a server, the butcher mod makes it less scary and much more silly. The “horror” of everything is very much mitigated by the absurdity of a bunch of llamas on meat hooks in your base. Or when someone starts placing skinned carcasses everywhere. 😭
Honestly if it was a little less astheticaly displeasing, i wouldn't mind having that mode in my world to add to markets and scenery, its almost cozy how you can get so many different cuts of meat to cook with
your skin being jermas face scared me more than the mod tbh
1:17:19 genuinely had me cackling , the amount of confusion having gold horse armour in ur inv and then just outright saying, "Why did i cream" is weirdly funny to me.
There's something so charming about a guy playing horror casually without overreacting, and just being overall chill.
I've noticed an effect that I'm sure has a name, but I don't know what it is. Horror games stop being scary when they get too hard. It seems counter intuitive at first, but as it turns out, the more the player has to do the same thing over and over, the less scary it gets. The true enemy of a horror game is frustration.
Here's a neat coincidence: The harder you make Minecraft, the more annoying it gets. If you die, you either go through the whole rigmarole of getting everything again. With the vanilla game's easier difficulty it's almost ignorable, especially given that you can stockpile resources and make backup gear. However, Minecraft apparently has to be hard to be scary. How do you make Minecraft harder? Crank up the numbers. It's pretty much the only thing you can do aside from completely redesigning the game's systems. The fear comes from the atmosphere and the threat. Minecraft can achieve the atmosphere rather easily, even the vanilla game had the vibe for some players. The threat, however, is negligible. The game's enemies are balanced to be easier to compensate for the poor combat. Not a non-threat, but too easy to be heart-poundingly tense. Not to mention the cultural familiarity with any of its vanilla mobs. It's hard to make a creeper scary when I'm thinking of Dan Bull rapping about them.
So we crank up the numbers and what do we get? A mob that kills you in 1-2 hits. Very threatening, yes, and maybe even frightening... until you die the first time and come to the crushing realization that you have to do that same thing you do every time you die. After that, it's an annoyance. It's not *scary*, startling maybe, but frustrating always. And that's a big reason why Minecraft will never be truly scary. The game's design is the total opposite of what you'd want from a horror game.
Horror relies on keeping things fresh. Minecraft keeps things fresh by updating the game and adding a new gimmick. Once you've experienced it a couple times it gets stale. So, in an attempt to make Minecraft scary, you only really have a couple options.
1. Boost the atmosphere and leave the threat vanilla. It's a safe but boring option that *just might* give some people what they want. But it's all build up and no payoff.
2. Boost the atmosphere and boost the threat. Now it's scary for a bit and then annoying.
3. Boost atmosphere, threat, and variety. This pack picked this option. The gameplay is now hyper-specific in what you need to do and actively discouraging you from engaging with the game's mechanics, of which it added many. Half of the mods are meant to make the game more difficult, half of the mods are meant to give the game enough new content to entice you to slog through it.
I might sound a bit cynical about this. It's because I am. I've got a bit of a bias when it comes to Minecraft's game design and how mods interact with it, mostly from experience playing it. I would (and did) buy into Minecraft having horror potential. But I just flat out do not think it can be done in a playable form. I respect the admirable and above average quality attempt from the modpack author and I wish them luck in the future with whatever they may do.
i've made a ton of horror focused packs in private to play with friends at this point, i agree with quite a lot of this comment. Seeing someone else make a horror modpack is genuinely cool to me, but unfortunately... this attempt really does just learn far more on the "Hard to survive means its totally horror!" angle, which i just don't like. i've found a lot of horror focused mods work better when they aren't utterly ridiculous... and unfortunately, the modpack author of this specific pack, is kinda infamous in some ways, specifically, they are an author who churns out kitchen sink modpacks left and right, so the problems of this pack isn't exactly a new problem...
Modpack rambling to i guess give an example of a """"horror"""" modpack that CAN work, atleast it managed to work for my friends, which was a pleasant surprise.
The last horror modpack i made, which was.... unfortunately before this sudden boom in horror modding, so now i'm sure there has to be some other hidden gems out there i could add to it, i wanted to do a balance of still keeping the gameplay of minecraft, and adding a good amount of vanilla plus mods, or mods that wouldn't feel THAT far fetch'd from vanilla, but also include a horror twist to it atleast a little. this one was made around halloween time, so i opted to include some halloween and fall mods to spice things up. i wanted nighttime and caves to be feared, without being overly punishing, and i wanted the daytime to feel welcoming and actually nice.
As for the horror aspect, the mods i ended up going with for that pack was Alex's caves (since one of its caves IS horror themed.), A tweaked version of Alex's mobs removing a lot of the animals that didn't fit the vibe, and bumping the spawnrate of Murmurs and cave centipedes underground up, as well as allowing ghost miners to spawn in any cave. i made sure to keep their spawnrates reasonable, so encountering atleast the first 2 would be both memorable, and an "oh fuck" moment.
The Cave dweller is... kinda the only good "dweller" mod out there, so we tried it during its height if popularity. It's one of the only one of these dweller mods that actually feel **Even remotely** balanced, with the dweller being able to be killed of course.
Ambient noises and other sound overhaul mods really helped out with a lot of the horror elements, definitely some of my favorite aspects of the pack. i feel like so many horror related things, minecraft especially just ignore or don't care about sound design, and.... that has always irked me.
Earth2Java was added for a couple reasons, but it included pretty balanced two new zombie types, and skeleton wolves to join the undead hordes and mix it up a little bit.
The craziest in terms of "difficulty" mods we had, was the chance for Bloodmoons with Enhanced Celestials.
Eyes in the darkness is an extremely simple, but effective and easy to deal with horror mob mod.
From the Fog to have some herobrine shennanigans, i'd tweak the config to make him as random as i could and just be at the mercy of RNG if he decided he'd want to fuck with us or not. is from the fog scary? not really, but god do i love this take on herobrine, it's just a nice little well put together mod that i'm glad goes back to the roots of the creepypasta for the most part.
From the Shadows is the closest thing we had that added any mobs that do ridiculous damage, but once you were armored up, you could take them on pretty simply: the nehemoth, a large demon-like mob that sometimes spawned in big caves underground. i think if i were to do another horror pack again, i'd probably drop this one, but they were definitely a cool mob and had a lot of cool moments with them.
Hostile Mobs and Girls is a mod that, i couldn't see myself using normally, i heavily scrubbed the config to disable most of the mobs from this mod, mainly because it had a couple of really good ones that fit the theme of horror, and once you remove the mobs that don't fit, the remaining mobs left are usually rare spawns and felt mostly balanced. honestly, if i had made this pack today, probably wouldn't have included this one, i was desperate to have atleast one more mod give us a new night mob, after having to replace the john mod, which is another one that i think is pretty good (if you disable the baby johns.), but unfortunately, the johns weren't set up properly, and spawned too much in Alex's caves biomes.
Mob sunscreen applied only to zombies, allowing zombie threats to still be around, and while we were at it, the TZP resource pack to make all the zombies sound scarier and have way more variety in appearance.
speaking of resource pack, we used a halloween resource pack that was very well made, and even without some of the halloween replacements, it tried to stay pretty close to vanilla textures, and just had a very pleasant autumn vibe to it overall.
Nyfs spiders to give spiders the ability to be proper spiders.
Observed, giving us the rare observer mob that focused more on debuffing than being a super strong, super scary monster.
MutantMonsters, which had most of its mobs disabled except the mutant zombie, who was an extremely rare sight in our world.
The same Sanity mod that's included in the modpack in this video, but tweaked a bit.
and finally, in terms of "horror" or mods that help fit the vibe at all, is a mod that i feel like is extremely underlooked when it comes to the horror atmosphere: The Graveyard mod. it adds a good amount of content, mostly via well made structures and blocks, but it also includes a small handful of mobs, only 4 of which are night spawns, and those 4 feel pretty balanced towards a vanilla playstyle.
i'm sure now, there's probably some other good "horror themed" mods that isn't just Dweller mod #34 but the Dweller is unkillable this time, OoOoO that i could add to the pack, i've seen a lot of cool mods that probably would fit the vibe come out lately, and seeing things like the low effort dweller craze, or this modpack effectively just being a challenge-pack, really makes me want to try to update the one i've got, even if it never sees the light of day outside of a select few people....
@@koopliss It'd be cool if you posted that modpack, since it seems pretty fun
@@PixelledYohan unfortunately, i wouldn't know the first thing about properly making a modpack that could be downloaded instantly and played, like other modpacks. all i do is, once i get the pack in a state that i'd want it in, i just zip up the mods, resource packs, and config files and privately send them to my friends.
if i did try to work on the pack again, i'd probably write down a list/link to the mods in question if people really wanted it, and just detail which config options to change. the pack would probably have a few more mods added to it/tweaked more than the current state it was in.
It's a combination of two things (Long comment, TL:DR is that the trend is horror producers not understanding horror):
[Edit: None of this is saying anything about the Modpack publisher- More on the producers of the mods included.]
1 - Something I'd call "Desensitization through Fatigue", but really can just be called "Overexposure"
It's the fact that as you are exposed to the same kind of stimulus over and over you're more than likely going to react to it less and less- That's just how we are. We're used to cheap jumpscare-filled cashgrabs following on the coattails of other producers so naturally they're going to have less efficacy as we grow more and more exposed to them- Anyone who was around during the age of screamers can attest to the first one always getting to them more than the second, third, fifth...
2 - All media is a kind-of game between the product and the consumer; The consumer agrees to "buy-in" to the product's intentions and in return the product will deliver what the consumer wants- Suspension of disbelief, we've all heard of it.
For Horror media, part of that buy-in is that the product will provide the consumer with the feeling that they are in danger and the feeling of tension without actually putting the consumer at any real risk- a kind-of tongue-and-cheek back-and-forth where the consumer willingly subjects themselves to what the product offers, knowing that they are behind the safety of their screen, that they can close the book whenever and be free of it etc.
Emphasis on "the feeling of".
The main fault here is a misunderstanding of the "buy-in" phase: The person creating content- in this case the mod author(s)- may fail to recognize that Horror is meant to only create the illusion of danger: The more risk there is of the player failing the more that fear and dread is going to turn to boredom and frustration-
"Great, now I have to... (Go get my stuff again; redo this much of the level etc.)" And as soon as the consumer begins to feel that way the horror fades from the product.
Horror, in the context of horror games, wants you to feel dread and anticipation more than anything; that uneasy feeling where you're still not wholly aware of how the game works and, as a result, has you asking questions like
"What's going to happen when (the monster gets me, when I run out of resources etc.)" It naturally has your mind fill in the blanks, and your mind will always be capable of creating a more terrifying scenario than the developers of any given game-
in other words: Horror is entirely dependent on atmosphere and the inherent fear of the unknown. In a game that sense of horror dies immediately when
"What happens when I fail?" is easily answered with "There's a loud sound and a png/gif flashes on the screen and then it's game over."
I 100% agree with your statement, An enemy no matter how disturbing and disgusting the design is, will be pure annoyance once you get killed enough times by it, Hell, Mojang themselves did it with the Warden! It straight up kills you instantly but at least you can avoid it entirely unlike these "dwellers" things, this is why I like psychological horror more than something like FNAF.
My biggest problem with this modpack is that it's just completely unfair. The amount of random bullshit enemies it throws at you that either 1-shot you, or deal half your health worth of damage in a single hit is absurd, and on top of that the sanity system making life more annoying than it needs to be doesn't help.
There is nothing scary about this modpack, it's just bullshit levels of difficulty for no reason.
ya exactly someone who actually knows horror needs to make one of these horror packs
@@zsidontknowwhattoname4395 They'll have to find some actually-good horror mods first, though....or make them, which isn't easy unfortunately.

@@A-Clear_View oh no the spooky guy is running towards me!! whatever will i do!!! im so scared!!!
honestly, people hate the dwellerfication of MC modding
but what I hate is slapping quest books onto random modpacks that don't really need them
I didn’t know that create modpack even had a quest book. I was just doing my own thing.
I actually like them for this. It suits the aesthetic.
I think you made that from the fog vid at the perfect time, a lot of viewers from a different niche spilled into yours. And I totally agree that you shouldn’t keep trying to drain that other niche dry. The thing that made your vid special is how dispassionate you were about something that was trying too hard to get some kind of rise out of you, and you didn’t get obnoxious or belligerent about it either, keeping a perfect level headed balance. It was beautiful!
You definitely hit the nail on the head. His calm demeanor contrasted with the game most certainly trying to scare him in any way possible is genuinely enjoyable and entertaining. Just started watching him this morning and this is my third video lol
I wouldn't say From the Fog was trying too hard to get a rise out of him, both he and the creator of the mod said that it's not really even intended to be scary, it's just meant to harkon back to the old Herobrine mythos and part of the feeling it gave some players. Not necessarily full on fear, more just like weird happenings in the world and sightings.
Now, the dweller clones, on the other hand, are different.
Casual approach to horror games is the future, absolutely peak content
True, I would recommend the youtube channel The Librarian. They make a good amount of horror related content and just casually run through it, and it's more about the exploration of the horror related enviroments rather then focused on immediate jumpscare clips.
seeing herobrine show up for 2 seconds halfway through was such a tone killer gjkfdhnjgfh
all these fancy mods and textures and then herobrine just shows up to say hi and leave
i think the reason a lot of people are drawn to your channel is your lets play videos are more mature and it reminds people of some of the earlier types of minecraft content we used to watch as a kid but practically doesn't exist anymore in a world of over saturated over the top minecraft youtubers that mainly market towards kids.
i understand you not wanting to carry the legacy of a minecraft youtuber and the implications that may bring, but its incredibly refreshing to see a chill guy just play some modded minecraft. you've got some serious og 2014-16 youtuber vibes; no crazy editing, no massive productions, and genuine gameplay without having to scream at every jumpscare with fake reactions.
if you decide not to go down that road, thats cool. but if you do, i seriously look forward to your next upload if you make this modpack a series. do what you think is best and dont turn it into something you despise doing.
the moment when you collected a block from some unknown mob mining towards you was pretty intimidating lmao, your way of commentary is the type i enjoy a lot
I’m pretty sure the reason your videos blew up is because you voiced what many of us were thinking but weren’t really bothered to say - that lot of new minecraft horror mods were just becoming bland and not scary jump scares that insta kill you, zero subtlety. Many huge minecraft youtubers covering these mods would overreact to it and it seemed like everyone was getting spooked, so I figured it was just me up until I saw your vid.
We appreciate the honesty. Keep being honest to yourself and play whatever the hell you want to dude.
The weird gargling sound you heard at 1:29:29 comes from one of the mods in the modpack called Zombie Awareness, a mod that enhances the mob (Specifically the undead ones) AI by making them aware of when blocks are placed and/or broken, light sources (I.E: Torches), and blood scent (Which explains the blood splatters on the ground in parts of the video and why you "creamed" at 1:17:19). The obnoxious gargling is a sound cue that you've alerted a mob to your location.
Zombie Awareness and Enhanced AI (Another mod in the modpack) are probably the main reasons why mobs are as cracked in Fear Nightfall as they are, it's something you can get used to as you progress, but it can get extremely annoying at times. Even if I haven't played the modpack myself, I'm still very iffy about it. It's not RLCraft levels of difficult, but there's a lot of aspects that seem like they'd get really old as you progress through the mod.
I will say though, I'm extremely happy mongoose_artist's Born in Chaos (Yet another mod in the modpack) is getting a lot more attention now; It's a bit of a jankfest (As seen in the wonky generation of the mod's structures at 6:22), but it has a lot of heart put into it for being made by a solo developer, it even has support for daedelus_dev's Better Combat mod!
i think it adds a nice challenge, plus, if you figure out the mod's mechanics through trial and error, you will find out that even if the mobs can dig, they cant actually build, so if you raise your base up by like, 3-4 blocks, the mobs are automatically no longer a threat and creepers will rarely breach you (and even if they do, just set up a few spikes around the perimeter to discourage creepers, thats not that hard)
zombie awareness can get kind of annoying with the ''sound'' because it plays a lot but apart from that i like the challenge, plus, without any kind of difficulty or things to do, horror mods just get boring, i've made a few modpacks based around horror and i've found that if you dont add 1-3 progression mods, it gets super stale and boring because you have nothing to occupy yourself with and thus no reward/incentive to actually engage with any of the spooky stuff
also yeah, born in chaos is absolutely sick, love that mod
it sounds like a reused DayZ sound
@@Hamza2_7272 tedium isn't a challenge. people like you are ruining gaming as a whole.
@@MsMoonDragoon oh i wasnt referring to tedium being a challenge. i personally quite enjoy the challenge of making your base suited around adapting to the world (and tbh, any mod where you die repeatedly and literally cannot recover your items will always get frustrating). it also really depends on your luck, if you can get a good seed and can get a good start, you wont struggle as much and it can actually be really fun. my original comment was four months ago and since then i've played a decent amount with fear nightfall and i'm really trying to get a hardcore world where i've made progress (still working on that though lol). though i will admit that my previous statement of ''literally just build your house up four blocks and no one can reach you'' makes the game quite unfun. since then you dont get to engage with any of the features and your basically just playing vanilla mc
another big big thing though is the caves, you basically cant venture in caves for such a long time because you'll almost certainly die or being out at nighttime. which i think is quite boring since you cant go outside nor go mining at nighttime. so you literally just have to find something to pass the time with
i def get your point about tedium, mods like the one who watches, man from the fog, corpse stalker, etc etc are literally designed to just kill you if you encounter them with almost no chance of living, which is just boring and tedious imo
Modpack seems less like a horror mod, and more a horror themed difficulty mod. Less scary, more difficult.
The musical choices are a bit odd. Like, I like the tracks. They're cool. but they just play when nothing is happening.

No overdramatic screaming and mellow commentary is really nice. I really hope you continue doing more horror stuff even if it's not Minecraft related since at some point that'll run dry

*proceeds to go against all common sense and ignore self preservation instincts, going underground to fight skeletons, creepers, zombies and god knows what other horrifying creatures*
"Why did I cream?"
"Is he holding something? Is he holding a blunt- what is that?"
Chill, actually human commentary with genuine and mildly humorous moments; I think I might have found a new channel to vibe and accidently fall asleep while watching (in the good way ofc)
Keep up the good stuff, can't wait to see what else you do!
1:04:19 why does every horror track have the ticking clock, for me it removes immersion since its so overused
It's funny how through almost an hour the only thing that startled you was just the sound of someone or something breaking blocks
The earlier version of the modpack was a broken mess. The current version is a broken mess that irreversibly griefs your world.
idk how you can handle playing like more than 10 minutes of this. this seems so unfun
This modpack feels like it was designed.
One of the modpacks of all time
this like the other 40+ min videos was incredibly easy to watch and honestly left me wanting more. Your chill comentary is a breath of fresh air on the minecraft scene and I'm happy to be here from the start!
A lot of other channels cater to kids (for money) and speak really fast and it just gives me a headache
genuine reactions somehow are funnier than those over the top yoowasthatherobrine??? type of reactions yk
Dang it’s like all the horror mods together weren’t designed to be fun for the player but instead to just make every single monster as powerful as possible to add “fear,” in the form of lost progress. You should probably in all honesty just turn keep inventory on.
I think I’d love this modpack if it were A), better balanced, and B) was portrayed as more of an adventure than a horror. I love anything with specifically outlined quests, so I’m a bit biased towards this modpack. Love your gameplay as well, it’s entertaining and a nice refresher from over-dramatized shit I normally see!
Yeah agreed. Bunch of jumpscares and overpowered mobs aint that much of a horror game
I love how youre hyper competent in combat and repeatedly facing odds of 6 - 1, constantly facing random, unpredictable, uncounterable bs along the way and somehow coming out alive most times..
BUT IT'S NEVER ENOUGH. This mod is an inconsistent jankfest and always finds a way to invalidate you with stupid nonsense. From zomboid mobspam, to gatling gun skeles, to two-hit fish guys you can't escape, to wallhack creepers.. to that REALLY scary miner mob that almost got you. Yeah this modpack is insane.
Gotta love how the multi-hour bamboo adventure could have been prevented if you had just... planted a SINGLE PIECE OF THE BAMBOO
Does this modpack have Evil Endive from Evil Chowder in it? I need that REAL bad.
WOMAN! YOU ARE ONE GIANT LUMP OF COAL!
BAH HUMBUG!@@Friend_A
The night music is idiotic. When nothing is actively happening, you play subtle eerie sounds, not full on chase music.
I appreciate your unfiltered recordings. It's not like I dont enjoy highly edited, and planned out videos, but I really like watching people who are just being themselves, playing a game. It's one of the reasons I personally really enjoy creators like Jerma985. And now you are one of those creators to me. Thanks for that.
One of the coolest things for, RUclips picking up and recommending your videos is it also exposed a ton of other small RUclipsrs that were in your recommendations at the same time. There’s a bunch of assorted Minecraft channels I’ve discovered and really like recently that I found through recommendations from your videos, and all their channels are taking off at the same time.
I feel like sanity mechanics in minecraft need a LOT of buildup. Minecraft isn't a game with neat scripted 5 minute long chase sequences, you shouldn't start getting eye squigglies and monochrome vision just for staring at the dark for a minute (this is going to be the majority of your gameplay)
Having these absurd monsters spawn in dark areas is ALREADY enough of an incentive to light shit up.
"it's 2 am and i'm annoyed" is my mood every night
I'm loving these videos. It feels like I'm just watching a friend play Minecraft via Discord screenshare, yet it also feels like I'm in 2016 again
ur live commentary videos give such old youtube lets play vibes. like it a lot, man
honestly I feel like the problem with this modpack is that it’s trying too hard to be “don’t starve”. down to the sanity feature (and the design of the red markings around the screen, funnily enough,) the fear of the dark, more complicated recipes, desaturated colors, random remains of people you can find, etc.
yea this modpack just seems more annoying than scary at all tbh
*edit:* also just make whatever kinda vid you want on whatever game/topic you want, i subbed for the personality
I have to say, you’re super underrated. I’ve watched all your other videos, especially the ones with your friends, and I really liked them aswell. I would love to see more Minecraft and Gmod horror stuff, but I also like the fact you stay true to yourself, so go with the flow.
I think part of the reason your getting so many views and subs us cause your making minecraft videos like the good old days. Longer videos showing gameplay that arent overly edited. Its exactly the kind of video I've been wanting to watch and i dont think I'm alone
the sanity mod frustrates me to no end cuz its SO clearly based on the sanity mechanic in dont starve but its executed so poorly... they take the effect that only appears when youre fully insane and apply it whenever you lose sanity?? which sucks for minecraft imo because its not made to have a bunch of effects taking up your screen like that every time one of your stats changes its just annoying. and when you do go insane they put a bunch of text on the screen?????? which again only serves to be annoying? the things that make you gain or lose sanity are either unfair, niche as hell, or just dont make sense? why would i gain sanity from walking on a carpet? why would i LOSE sanity from hurting animals when its one of the most reliable food sources? a lot of the gain/lose mechanics are ripped straight from dont starve but mostly from character specific things (gaining sanity from campfires is likely taken from willow gaining sanity from being near fire, losing sanity when getting hurt is taken from walter, trampling farmlands might reference wormwood losing sanity from cutting trees?) or changed (instead of picking flowers you have to pot them now which takes one of the easiest ways to gain sanity and makes it much more difficult). overall i just dont see how it makes sense.
why would killing a sheep lower your sanity but fishing raise it? does the fish not die as well? do we not care about them? WHAT is the thought process?
I mean tbh fishing is kinda relaxing compared to going up to a cute sheep and just starting to stab it
@@antonionegrea3554 as someone who used to volunteer ona farm, sheep arn't cute.
i found this channel recently and i just want to say you’ve immediately become one of my favorites. you have a similar calm goofy energy as jerma and it’s an incredibly good change of pace on youtube, especially the minecraft community. i’d happily keep watching if you go back to variety games, keep up the good work man :)
This mod actually seems really cool, it actually changes the gameplay up a fair bit.
Do not recommend, it's fun for a bit, but then you start to see the cracks. Lots of really questionable and poor choices in mods and other things.
@@jackwilliams2673its too difficult which ruins the fear factor
because it just gets annoying rather then scary
@@zsidontknowwhattoname4395 I wouldn't really say that, it STARTS difficult but as soon as you get some decent gear and a shield (especially a broom) it's all over. The annoying part is how most monsters are bland damage sponges with poor animations or they just spawn CONSTANTLY. Other than that they're using Spore which is wholly incomplete so it just spawns everywhere and you can't clear or reduce it... and one of those "enhanced AI" mods that make creepers into basically ballistic missiles that specifically explode on your walls- along with mining zombies that just appear in your base... So you're forced to live basically at build height.
if you made this a series i would definitely watch it. :D this modpack looks torturous in a way that makes me want to try too lol. but def dont feel trapped into doing only one thing, doing whatever u want is the spirit of youtube
I'm subbed.
It reminds me of when mods first started to pop off on yt. The emotions are pure, you don't exactly know what you're doing, but your learning. It's refreshing to see someone not be the expert of the modpack and get to a ridiculous stage of the pack in one episode. And the vibe you give out is really chill.
Keep up the great work
1:17:18 Bro was really excited about it just being him and two witches.
0:19 We came out of the wall, Friend. We are friends B through Z.
Found your channel and I love the way you commentate, just giving your thoughts and not feeding into modern youtuber standard. Makes you feel nostalgic to watch, just the style I enjoy watching. Keep it up!
It’s seriously relieving that you are of the people that not only not stick to what works instead of playing what they want, but also not over exaggerate your emotions. Keep up the good work man!
im being fr the scariest part of this video was parts of the video going silent cuz i thought my headphones were acting up and not the modpack itself
Same, kept going back and forth in the video wondering if it was me or not.
i think people liked your other minecraft videos so much, because it was such a simple format, a return to the times before everything was so over-edited and in-your-face
thanks for having subtle and relaxed content
i really enjoy your content because youre funny and not overly edited to achieve it, keep doing what you want, ill definitely be regularly tuning in
I genuinely love your videos so much. For some reason listening to your voice while playing horror Minecraft mods brings me peace and comfort.
dude genuinely your videos make me feel such joy and peace that is not found often in this new world of ours. i am so happy i got to spend and hour and a half watching you play minecraft and ramble about things. it reminds me of how i used to play minecraft as a kid. thank you )
I just stumbled across your channel a few hours ago and even if your primary content is not Minecraft, you made me wanna start playing these kind of modpacks with my friends, they look interesting and challenging. Your content is great and I'm looking forward to what you make next, keep it up!
Unironically, I would be interested in seeing this become a video on your channel. Like, don't feel forced to make content you don't wanna make, but this video was very entertaining, and I am morbidly curious to see more of this pack.
I’d recommend turning the brightness on the videos up a tiny bit mostly at night but that could just be a me problem/modpack problem :P dope video
I think the modpack might have hardcore darkness which removes the minimum light level
@@ashadeofblue6815 yea ur prob right
I recently found this channel and can i say im glad i did, you're entertaining and honest and i really enjoy these past minecraft videos because i honestly relate to what you say about these dweller mobs and how they aren't scary and stuff.Anyways keep up the good work man, im loving this kind of content🔥👍
i would love to see more content like this, your content is pretty fun!
Damn, that’s the first Minecraft letsplay I’ve watched in ages… A decade actually, huh
Your videos have really good vibe, like it’s great times of old Minecraft again
Longest video I watched in a while, too, and damn I was invested
You’re really talented in making chill content, like a grasp of fresh air
bro ive been watching your videos recently and you have such a calm and relaxing voice its nice to put you on after a long day at work :)
I found you through your minecraft horror stuff and it is all I have watched of yours. But I think you should do whatever makes you happy. If you're not looking to become a minecraft youtuber, then don't force yourself to. I enjoy your blunt personality when it comes to commenting on these horror mods and personally I'd enjoy seeing you play more of this kind of thing, but again if you don't really enjoy it, then that's your choice. Take care!!
i initially found your channel because of minecraft ofc, but what was most entertaining was how chill u are, very reminiscent of older lets play era but with a little more editing so it doesnt get stale. i dont mind if u stray away from minecraft but i'd hope u keep doing more general horror stuff every now and then, it compliments very well with ur nonchalant attitude lol
I love this video so much I rewatch it all the time with my friends it's awesome. You got me into Fear Nightfall and because of this video I've been playing it sooo much recently. If you ever do a part 2 (which would be AWESOME but it's ok if not), here are some tips I learned through my playthrough:
- Cover your base in at least 3 layers of cobblestone (it shields you from creeper aggro) and ON TOP OF THAT lay out 3 layers of spikes on the floor surrounding your base. That prevents zombies from mining in during Miner Moons or if they spawn with pickaxes (which sometimes happens).
- Carry spare campfires with you to regen sanity if needed. Being at too low sanity (like what happened at 1:08:18) spawns mobs that are Very overpowered like the Rotting Stalker.
- Live in a village. Trust me as soon as you find a village, everything just gets easier. There's sturdy structures everywhere, it's already lit, AND you can trade with clerics to get ender pearls.
- Farm bamboo, like plant as much as possible so you have enough for a ludicrous amount of spikes.
- Farm wheat also. For some reason, cooked meat takes forever to eat- so in combat, bread is a MUCH better food source.
But that's pretty much it. I love this video. I love how you approach horror mods in such a down-played way. You're just the perfect guy for minecraft horror. Do more, or don't, only if you want. But I personally love this. ok thank you for reading my comment.
I genuinely love your videos dude, I watch you probably as much as I watch some of the biggest MC youtubers
Enjoy your videos. no craziness, honest and humorous. Surprised how well you did on fear nightfall it was super hard when I played lol
I really like your stuff because of how genuine and off the cuff you are. it all feels very relaxed as opposed to really forced like, in my opinion, forge labs. which I greatly appreciate.
Also I don't know what mod is doing it, I think zombie awareness? but that sound the zombies keep making is absolutely horrid
this is so scary im shivering and crying oh my oh my my biggest fear is a big tall minecraft monster playing a mp4 of a scary scream
Bro this could be a really good series to start. your in that same boat as me where my friends are very easily scared but I’ve experienced so many horror movies and games that I’ve become very desensitized to it so it’s really hard to enjoy a scary game or movie because it’s always “ I’ve seen that before” but this could be challenge series to find the scariest pack. The big pull is the watch a young man like yourself go on the quest conquer fear. People love to see it.
I really like your commentary. It kind of reminds me of how Remainings talks. So comforting.
I think the best part of these minecraft videos is how chill they are. You just go around exploring the world trying to mind these inconveniences. And you just kinda talk in these videos. Not trying to be goofy for the sake of entertainment or anything. Just being very honest and chill. This video has a nice chill vibe.
Is it weird that I am watching a horror mod pack to fall asleep just because your voice is soothing?
okay everything was chill until 44:00 holy hell 😭 that’s wild
Hi! YT suggested me your PSX Minecraft video, watched it and now im stuck here watching all your vids! Liked and subbed, keep up the good work friend! ❤
love your stuff man keep up the good work
I'm subscribing homie please keep grinding this channel could be so big
he won the idgaf war fr
I was gonna subscribe then i realized im already subscribed lol. Good content, voice vaguely reminds me of old tobuscus in one way or another
I dont know why but your video's are really relaxing to watch, you really should have more subscribers
I just like your haphazard way of commentary, it’s enjoyable. You don’t try to over exaggerate and that’s ironically unlike any other RUclipsr
found your channel today and i think your voice is very soothing, hope to see u play other horror games in the future!!!
Dude PLEASE keep this style of videos, its so fucking good and ive been so fed up with overproduced shit on youtube
and thank you for the amazing video even though it had some weird audio cuts and stuff, also that ps minecraft is pretty nice, I love playing that now
16:02 , A miner Moon ? more like, a Minor's moon
suddenly dream is very interested in this modpack
