already knowing everything but still watching because insym is my GOAT
Literally 😭
Tbh this is one of those games where if you have a piece of paper front and back of info you can turn a jaded horror game player whos mever touched this game into top 1% ghost hunter
Its tension and fear that screws most ghost hunts up for people
GOATED
@@nean9894 yeah it's also the kind of game, where it's nice to learn its mechanics BUT at the same time, if you do learn those and know timings, why stuff happens, when stuff can happen etc etc .. its no horror game anymore. You still could get jumpscared, but thats not really horror - that would be a simple scare.
So either you keep the game horror for yourself and creepy, but therefore you probably die more often or can't identify the ghosts that simple .. OR you can identify the ghosts more easily and not die that often anymore, probably pretty rare only, but for that the game will lose its horror/creepy part.
Real
"Explain you"
I love when the dutch brainworms slip out, thank you for being so good at educating players.
tf you mean with dutch brainworms
@@CD-bp3qm insym is dutch and what he means is that he is saying some words in the worong order becouse we say it like that in dutch
@@CD-bp3qm In dutch, one would say "ik zal het je uitleggen" which literally word for word is "I will it you outlay", but if you translated it properly is: "I'll lay it out for you"
the word 'you' goes in a different place in dutch so it can be a pain to remember where to put it in english, or to remember to use the word 'to' at all.
@@IvanLachrymoseI'm learning dutch and its sooo true, sometimes confuses me how its simplified?
@@koresaliva subject + personal verb + rest of the sentence
The fact that I'll play phasmophobia for the first time ever in about a month and know every single information about the game by watching your videos for 2-3 years straight is crazy, keep up you're the goat 🔥🗣️
Why in about a month? Just curious
There is a slight adjustment curve cause actually playing is a different feeling at first. Hope you have fun with the game when you get it!
Yeah I had someone who said this same thing and he turned out to be the worst ghost hunter.
@@basedbasil9261they probably get money by then? lol
@@KungFuBroFist I’m just asking cause I’m curious
Console player checking in! Thanks mainly to insym I am now prestiged and gettin apocalypse trophies.
This all from someone who was SO lost in the game it almost looked hopeless, professional looked impossible.
Thank you DOESNT even begin to cover it!
I love phasmo!
did you know they have cross platform play
how long did it take to get to such a skillful level?
Console doesn't have voice recognition yet. My cousin told me
I hope I play like you then lol😫❤️
I learned so much from your Videos, like how to properly loop and how to spot the Ghosts with no Evidence. Youre truly the GOAT of Phasmo
Frrr
When I first got into phasmo, I wanted to learn as much as I could so I could keep up with my sister, and I stumbled upon your ghost guide. Two years later, and I’m still here, at almost every stream. Thanks for the streams and videos my guy, they give me something to look forward to each day ❤
I tried to play this game... watched insym for hundreds of hours to learn... still get too scared when playing
Practice amateur runs on Tanglewood! Once you've successfully completed a few contracts, the nerves wear off and the game gets easier! I struggled on solo runs because I wasn't good at investigating and the anxiety would get me. Once you win a time or two, it's much better!
@@ostrichblips Haven't played in a bit but playing alone always scared me lol. I know the ghost is just an AI with programmed behaviors but my brain still gets scared when a random noise happens lol.
I learned so much about how to play from watching Insym play this game before I bought it myself. That was way back when there were only a couple maps, just the original ghosts, and no sprinting 😅 I love seeing how far the game has come since then. Even when the nerves wear off after playing so much, it's still fun, especially with friends!
Play with friends. Friends that you can have fun with. Immersion is definitely key here. I could barely play for more than 30 minutes when starting. Now, when playing, I'm normally the first through the door. I'm, of course, still learning (that's why I'm here), but I can open the game and play on my own now and not get scared (though I still automatically turn my mic off out of habit) I STILL can't play Sunny Meadows... trauma from another game that had an asylum in it😅 but I want to play the Apoc challenges, so I plan on trying to get over that. Find friends that you can mess around with in the levels or friends that are serious about the game, but don't mind you having a hard time with it. I got lucky and have one friend I could fuck around with and two more that were more serious about it (but understood my aversion to Sunny Meadows)
Play with randoms! It made me face my fears and I’ve made some friends from it, also they can make it super funny and remove the scary aspect!
New things i learned:
- mare has 10s cooldown per light switch
- ghosts sense equipment within 8m (2.5m for Yokai)
- hear myling at 12m, otherwise 20m
- phantom can roam to random player
- banshee cant change fav room
- obake transformations r hard af to see
- larger maps grant more money
banshee can change its ghost room. Goryo is the one that can't change ghost room(unless you wished for sanity with the monkey paw)
@@kzkaa.Both Banshee and Goryo can't change ghost room on their own.
@@dyonisos1692banshee can if the player is either outside the house or not in the ghost room. Otherwise it won’t due to the lack of far roams like Insym said
@@thebrosthatjustmakevideos I've heard that the Banshee is bugged with changing ghost rooms (it was intented to be able to change) and that they won't fix it in the code.
specifically about the last one its negligible in contrast to how much time u would spend on a smaller map plus everyone knows or can quickly find all bones etc on a smaller map and quicker and easier get perfect investigation bonus so yeah larger maps aren't and never will be worth it for money specifically but more so if u wanna challenge urself i just did apocalypse 3 on sunny meadows solo 2 days ago and i did it with the twins shit was INTENSE

ARMORED CORE REFERENCE
Thank you so much! I'm really thankful that despite your audience consisting on mainly people who have played for years and know a lot about it, you still explain stuff for us who are new!
I recently got a gaming computer, finally! My friends suggested we played Phasmophobia online, I had never heard of it. We played last week for the first time. It is very fun, even though I get super scared when the ghost is around (don't know how y'all play so calmly lol). I started watching your videos to learn more about identifying ghosts and oh boy, there's so much info. I still can't recognize when a ghost is moving quickly or slowly, most of them sound the same to me hehe.
I'm going to stick to searching for evidence for now, but I am definitely enjoying learning more and more details about the ghosts! Just yesterday I identified the poltergeist because of the "throwing stuff hability" thing, I was super proud! I still screw up 99% of the time but I think I'm getting better :) thanks again!
56:20 to fix the Shade blowing out a candle when roaming outside the room a bit thing. Keep the candle far from the exit of a room so it's not in range of the candle. It sounds weird at first but when you understand the borders of rooms and hallways you can place the candle in safe spot to where you won't get a false candle blow making you think it's not a Shade.
Even though im still pretty much a rookie at only level 32, my knowledge of this game has increased tenfold to where when I'm playing with some of my friends who are about the same level as me, I know so much more than them and it allows us to get the correct ghost so much more often. And all that is from watching your videos.
Facts it feels so good to know more than my friends 😂
I have a love/hate with the Sunny Meadows doors. On the downside you can get trapped within feet of a rev, but on the upside it's a good way to tell if it's hunting.
I love sunny meadows forever
some useful tips i got from this video, use this if you dont want to watch a 3H video. (i'd still reccomend watching it)
- shade cant hunt for 3 mins after smudging (using insence on the ghost)
- yokai has less equipment detection range then other ghosts
- Hantu's breath is only seen if the breaker is off
- oni can blink almost instantly during a hunt
- raiju will make your equipment glitch from much further away
- obake's shapeshift ability is used at least once per hunt
- Demon can hunt again faster then any other ghost after smudging the ghost
- the banshee cant really change room due to its ability
- mare can instantly turn off lights
- if the ghost trys to hunt and if there is a candle still lit after the crucifix is used is cannot be a onryo
- jinn's will not turn off the breaker (make sure it waesnt a event, poseession that turned it off)
- Hantu has a higher chance to turn off the breaker
- crucifix's has a much bigger radius if its a demon (it doesnt show)
- Oni cant do Airballs / ghost exhale
- banshee does more singing events than any other ghost
- yurei will close a door but the sfx of the door fully closed is delayed by 1-4 seconds
let me know if i missed any and hope some of these help. 😁
SPIRITS cannot hunt until after 3 minutes, not shades
Watching you from 4 years . Keep it up❤
I’m addicted to no sanity no evidence custom mode because of you. I can’t play anything else and the knowledge of your videos is a fucking miracle. Still watching cuz you’re a fucking legend.
We love you insym!!!!
As a newer console player your videos have been great! Probably would’ve never learned this on my own
Do i know all of this already ?? Yes. Will I still be watching this whole video ?? Also yes. Love you INSYM ❤️
Great for newbies also recapping is so imperative. Thank you
This video has some insanely good examples of some of the ghosts.
Another 3 hours of my life dedicated to Insym!
New console player here and I have been waiting to get this game and now I know certain things that help me. Like phantoms don’t show in pics, jinns can’t turn off breaker and obake can change model and onryo can blow out 3 lights and if the cross burns. Because of insym, I have learned so much and I have so much more fun with friends because I know what it can be and can’t based on the behavior. I can’t wait for more vids!
Amazing, video INSym!
I like how at 2:17:34 the onryo tried to call you to lure you away from relighting the candles 😂
Love your informative videos! The ones where you play with random low levels in public lobbies are my favourite videos because you're teaching people in real time and also stressing over keeping them alive lol.
Hey Insym, What Custom Setting do you run in this video, also Thanks for the knowledge, it has helped me alot and I imagine it has helped other people too, keep it up man, you're goated. But make sure you're getting some rest aswell also king, Much love ❤
Me sitting here doing camp woodwind leveling and then getting shade thrown at me from background videos is really a moment
Youre voice gives me inner calm
My fav fellow dutch person on yt finally uploaded
Honestly nice to see that very little has changed as far as ghost knowledge goes since the last time I checked in on Phasmo.
Regarding the Goryo... I wonder, since it loves it's favorite room so damned much, maybe it could be a low-level Blitz type of Ghost, similar to a Rev or Raiju. If it's target is inside the favorite room, it'll rush 'em. Otherwise, it behaves as normal. Could be a pretty cool tweak to a really irritating ghost type to face on No Evidence / Sanity runs. Also would be quite dangerous, since outside of it's favorite room, it'd still be pretty nondescript, and inside... Well, better have a smudge nearby or be right by the exit. It'd also make Big Room Goryos *lethal*...
I know a lot of them but glad I'm watching this I'm trying to get better at it
I love the difference between Professional and 0 Evidence runs. In Pro you're getting all the equipment through the door and identifying the ghost type before it can even hunt, meanwhile in 0 Evidence starting with 0 sanity is quite the boon as you want the ghost to come to you instead.
God forbid it comes to this but if RUclips stops working for you there’s always becoming a auctioneer
I envy how people can play this and treat it like any other game. I don't fuck with ghosts or the idea of ghosts at all and as soon as I saw what this game was about I got it a couple days ago. This shit is so scary but I hangout where the action is. Being scared is so fun
I love this game and just picked it back up again but I’m getting so irritated at the group I play with. One runs in and immediately says the ghost name 25 times tj make it angry and immediately uses the cursed object while the other 2 are terrified to go in the the map alone. So it’s just me left alive. Usually I get all the evidence then run out of incense and die.
Time for a new group!
Just got this game again with brand new pc haven't played since release time soo nice
39:20 I use those settings on camp woodwind but I still try to figure out the ghost no matter what it is--sometimes you still can't figure it out, if it's a goryo or jinn it can be near impossible, but I like the way that high multiplier setting works!
Done!!2:21:09 1:56:20 1:26:17 1:02:05
41:14 I had this exact thing happen but with the bent over version of itself hahah
I would love to have a mimic more often, i have a mimo in like 50+ games 1 time . Either i know it right away or get absolutly trolled
I dident even know what i dident know untill now
That speed tip was pretty cool. You scratched off alot. Needa try it out.
9:36
When the pills ease your mind,
And the ghost slows with time,
That's-a morooooiiiiii!
I know this guys intro by heart ❤
woo updated vid on this sht ! time to uhhhh, dedicate 3 hours to information i may or may not already know,,..,.,.,,
The goat posted 🎉
I've set the headlamp and the flashlight to separate keys... but you do still have to hold it down to turn on or off the head lamp.
These types of videos make me want to do info sheets on every single ghost and I don't even play phasmo lol
all that was needed for the moon walking at 2:28:40 was an audio clip of the Michael Jackson hee hee (missed the chance)
0:00 Is hilarious His pose
For the Mare ability, relative to immediately turning off the light switch, make sure that a ghost event didn't happen. Plenty of times people get caught in the thought of thinking it's a Mare ability and then completely ignore the event since after playing the game for some time you get accustom to it. So again, if again, make sure it wasn't a ghost event that turned off the light.
If Insym mentions this later in the video I'll delete the comment, but important to say none the less.
I think it would be cool if you could pick before hand what ghost it would be in custom. Obviously the reward would have to immediately be set to 0x like the infinite sprint or friendly ghost.
Have you ever experienced that the rest of the ghost sounds became lower? I couldn't hear some of the ghost footsteps and interactions with 100% volume on both PC volume and in game..
Edit...
And also, I couldn't here the ghost started to Hunt also.
Same here on console
Was it a myling? Or every ghost was like that?
@@thenomad3554 no, all of the ghost we tried to identify does the same, we cant heat them hunting
@@adolphweissman5973 I'm not sure. Was it only certain sounds, or is it all the sounds in-game? I used a 3rd-party software to boost the audio because it's too quiet for me, but I'm not sure if it's the game itself or just my earbuds. I used FxSound if you want to give it a try.
I'm seriously frustrated that the equipment overhaul killed the only very niche trick I ever discovered with the sound sensors... the ability for it to hear the EMF meter and where EMF-5 had a very obvious appearance on the trick monitor.
Love your videos! Don't usually comment, but there's a new game coming out soon called Lost Lullabies: The Orphanage Chronicles that I think is up your alley! Hope this is useful!
I always thought onryo blew out so many candles because it tried to hunt but got stopped by the candle but that candle blow out made it trigger another hunt so it blows out another. I always see a very short delay between the candle blow outs so that’s what made me think that way. I feel like it can chain that interaction multiple times tho so you could see all of your candles blow out in quick succession.
It would also explain the many cases I’ve had with an onryo blowing out the candle and then immediately using a crucifix
@@huntercrawford5556an intro has a chance (guaranteed at blowout 3) to hunt after blowing out a candle, which would use a cross after the candles gone, since there’s no more candle to stop it.
@@thebrosthatjustmakevideos yeah I always try to just have 1 candle at a time to test for onryo like that with a crucifix. If you had two candles tho it would just do a double blow out on the third candle blow out tho right?
@@huntercrawford5556 yes, it would blow out the 4th candle. This also counts your lighter so be careful with that tio
53:40 - because of the Shade and candle blown out while you were in the room..
I mean, a Shade could still do that. I saw something mentioning the ghosts have like a 10m radius of doing ghost events, so probably has a range like that for interactions too.
A shade could also be in the hallway and blow out the candle in your/his room tho. So possibility for Shade is still given at that point.
(Edit: He said it too, okay good xd)
The interaction range is like 1.5m on small map, 3m on medium and large map. It's a very small, but not impossible.
@@kzkaa. hmm
I have a problem especially when I forget to turn on lights before provoking a hunt that I have a feeling that the ghost changed their model even tho they didn't that's why I tend to confuse other ghosts with obake
i had an onryo last night that moved rooms 5 times and i thought it was only because of the candles. never touched the candles it just picked a luckiest corner ig.
1:16:50 I want to scream... Insym just grab another fucking candle you have FOUR
Question, how are the lights in the houses so bright? is your brightness turned up? because whenever I turn on the lights in a house it's like someone likes to live in perpetual darkness, that's how dim the lights are.
Yeah I recommend you to turn your brightness to 200%, makes the experience much better
hey insym What is your custom difficulty so I can see if I can do the same multiplier?
2:33:00the smoothest C̶r̶i̶m̶i̶n̶a̶l̶ ghost
My brain physically hurts tryna gather this information
Had a game where the ghost flicked off the switch immediately for me and another player but wasn't a Mare...
1:04:30 - interesting how for the Hantu the breath INSTANTLY shows up, when you turn the breaker off .. but the speed stays slow until the temps get lower..
Shouldnt the breath also only come up, when the temps went down? They don't go down instantly, as soon as you turn the breaker off.. right?
I think it would be really cool if they add a parking lot map
(Not related to the video)
A good suggestion for a ghost is one that warms the room up to unnatural heights
2:19:20 - does it only count for the THIRD candle or for every third candle tho? In terms of onryo..
So is it only the actual 3rd blown out candle, or is it every three.. like the 3rd, the 6th, the 9th and so on
Now I’m better than my friends >:)
We all know this is why we want to learn, not for yourself just to impress your friends haha
Is it better to just leave if u know the ghost relatively quick or is it better to snap pictures and do objectives aswell and take a bit longer?
Hey me and a buddy are playing phasmo like, right this second. (I have screenshots of both our perspectives) And we have a blood moon, but he doesn’t have it. CJ!
It's not the same for everyone at every time..
hey insym i got a question, when the lights of the house turn red what does that mean. the lights will be normal and then like randomly turn red
It's just a red light event.. That's all.
How can you tell the difference between a hunt and a ghost event
First time seeing myself in the chat!❤
at 38:45. i saw insym was 16x further in the leveling system than i am. and x100 or more, more hours
Do you have any tips on getting better at looping? How do you plan the sprints effectively? Or is it just a skill issue on my part
I have no idea but what I think is you would just sprint until the ghost turns around and goes the long way around the table again and use that couple seconds to get some sprint back.
@@TheLegend-jp1vg don't forget that crouching also break LoS and prevents the ghost from speeding up, which can make it easier to loop. You don't need to do so, but it's very good if you just want to survive or are starting out.
Other than that, it's just something you need to practice a lot.
Why does he always dump all three salt uses in the same exact spot?
bc if the ghost steps in the salt he can take multiple photos, instead of having to wait for the ghost to step in multiple salt piles
Day 2 of asking for the apocalypse challenge done in vr.
In terms of the activity screen and EMF, Polter etc. ..
Doesn't big spikes also happen when there is a ghost event?
Like, if you are in the van and big spikes happen.. that does not mean EMF 5 or Polter throws.. it also could just be a ghost event, no?
I am pretty sure ghost events also have such big spikes, even up to 10 (which normally would happen while hunting)
Ghost event only occur if there's a player in the investigation area AND is within like 10m of the ghost. If there's nobody inside, there shouldn't be any ghost events.
@@kzkaa. but i often have this high spikes on the board and its not em5, so that has to mean ghost event in my head xd
@@Zhyreph If you're in multiplayer, someone inside might've gotten a ghost event. OR you're looking at high spikes from a ghost event like 20 seconds ago. OR it is EMF5 and you just missed it.
My point is that if you're in singleplayer, and you're in the van, and you see high spikes suddenly appearing, it cannot be a ghost event.
@@kzkaa. Okay. But it still coult interact with stuff even if no one is in the house? And also.. but big spikes could still happen when solo in the van but doesnt need to be EMF5 I think.
@@Zhyreph Interaction, yes. Events, no. Big spikes could also happen when there's multiple interaction very close to each other. The tl;dr is that the activity monitor can be hard to read.
2:00:12 Insym the mimic can copy the banshee scream. I've been tricked before by a particularly banshee like mimic.
Obviously mimic can do anything. Literally anything except goryo dots.
Insym...I hate myself, this mimic wouldn't stop being a hantu
In the poltergeist hunt how do you know when it's a hunt and when they're just events?
If its chasing you its a hunt
@JohnnySmartie gotcha I thought some events are a fake chase
@@P9Wshorts well when there is a hunt, the front door is locked and you cant escape untill the hunt is over. In an event you can still escape.
@JohnnySmartie ok thanks that helps alot
I once had an encounter with a Rev, figured out the ghost just by the hunt. But my dumbass was trying to show my friends how I know it's a Rev and started swapping items for my smudge while hiding.
I accidently brought out my camera and I shit you not, the inevitable sound of death as the Rev hauled ass to my location made me scream like a girl.
What is insyms custom difficulty? Mine only gets to 7x
Phasmo nood here! What are the settings for this custom mode?
When are you gonna play Abiotic factor again?
I have a question about The Mimic. Is the Mimic able to copy the banshee scream?
Yes. Just not the Goryo dots.
I played a round yesterday and had Poltergeist and Phantom left. So I lit the Summoning Circle and took a picture of the ghost. You could see the ghost in the photo, so I went with Poltergeist. But it was a Phantom. Is that normal? Can you photograph Phantoms through the circle now?
You can't photograph a phantom, so something must have happened. Either it got bugged or what you think is the ghost is somehow not actually the ghost.
If it helps you, phantom blink a lot less during a hunt(more invisible than they are visible). It's very obvious since their movement will feel very jarring compared to normal ghosts. This might help you.
idk if it was an glitch or it is an ability but me and some friends where playinbg phasmo and we got ghost writhing it hunted and it was shapeshifting i was thinking mimic but mimic also doesnt have ghost writing
I was trying to attempt these, and then a Yurei just spawned on me and instantly killed me. ;_;
the mimic will leave orbs in the ghost room on no evidence
Mare lightswitch a few people in chat including me spotted it 2:51:12
Huh, do you get a higher reward on the same settings with a bigger map?
Yes, you do. Although what actually constitute a "bigger map" might not be what you think it is.
Sunny Meadows(and restricted) and High School are large maps. Prison and Maple Lodge(iirc) are medium maps. Everything else are small maps. You get $100 for getting the right ghost in a small map, $150 on medium map, and $200 on large map.
I believed for 2:23:25 and finally I won. It's to be a beliver
What custom settings are you using?
Short term: ghost traits
What are the settings you are using B0$$? Also, love the content man
Just use Apocalypse 3 and modify but keep an eye on your rewards counter.
Insym I always have trouble figuring out with the normal, phantom, and oni blink. (I am new but can you tell some things so I can level up faster?)
There's video online to help you visualize the difference between the ghost blinks. But in general, phantom blink a lot less(more invisible than visible), so their movement feel jarring compared to normal. Oni blink a lot more(more visible than invisible), so their movement feel smoother. Although it's easier to differentiate between a phantom blink and a normal blink than it is with oni blink and a normal blink.
At the end of the day, just look up videos on youtube comparing their blink. It's way better than what I(or anyone) can do in text.
