The Developers Made Phasmophobia 10x More Difficult with the New Update
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- Welcome back to Phasmophobia! In this video we play with the new tier 1 items while doing a no sanity challenge. This really shows how much harder phasmo has become on the new update because new players only have the terrible starter items which make getting evidence so much harder. Which means the games will take longer which will result in lower sanity and more deaths. ENJOY!

When you sat the Shitty T1 DoTs down, and it fell behind the Headboard of the Bed.... i felt that in my SOUL.
The game doesn't need to be more difficult, it needs to improve the interactions and the visuals of the ghosts, they have been the same since the beginning. I also think that the new progression system is not friendly for casual players
Yeah the game has improved massively but the models and animations 100% need updating. I think the sound design is pretty decent already though
The Tier 1 equipment has made casual playing a lot less fun for me.
Same for me and my friends. I don't want to grind for hours to get better gear in a game that I play from time to time just for fun. That was also the issue with most of the horror co-op games and I don't know why phasmo devs would make it this way.
@@MihaiDurus Making it a career mode option and then allowing all the tools for custom games might be the answer. As of now I am probably not playing it.
it takes two days to level up to tier 2..
@@randomannoyanceYou are a child with infinite free time. We are working adults who cannot play a video game for two days straight.
@@randomannoyance I see that as a down side. I'm not not new to phasmo...I just don't play it a ton. I enjoyed hopping on and figuring out a few ghosts with my friends for a few hours a week. The Tier 1 tools are a struggle. I end up guessing wrong on DOTS and Spirit box...a lot. I was also guess EMF 5 wrong a lot. I know now after seeing this video why. This update essentially broke phasmo for me.
The startup for new players must be insane. I played Phasmo a year ago to lvl 55 and even the comeback is exrtemely hard. So mutch new stuff new mechanics and enteties. The pain starting up without the hole arsenal of tools and the things you can use are nerfed as hell.
Man playing early game with no smudge sticks and no sanity is hard as fuck. And i've had like 3 games where spirit box just absolutely refuses to pick up the ghost despite me walking around for 5 minutes with it in the dark and then i get the ghost wrong
Spirit box works kinda like dots now - you gotta be where the ghost is roaming to get the evidence. Can be kinda dangerous if it’s a Yokai so be ready to dip out as soon as you get the evidence!
@@dnatortnator I try to use it around where an object is thrown or a door is touched, and i spam it, usually works well enough.
The update made my friend group not want to play anymore, its way too tedious for how repetitive the gameplay is
@@dnatortnator I mean I use all tier ones and its not all that bad. I recommend playing amateur until like level 12 and you unlock smudge sticks. I was level 263 before the update btw so I really am not that good.
Thank you insym for explaining the ghost event spirit box strat at 13:10, I wasn't ever sure if the airball teleports the ghost to a diffirent location. Amazing video btw.
Tier 1 items are the secret Hell mode the devs just didn't tell you.
maybe you should make a list on what items are the most important to have upgraded
try out the headlamp (lvl 2)..
EMF level 3 is a little bit of a downgrade in some cases, the level 2 works from the door and sometimes even from the van, but the level 3 more often than not doesn't.
crucifix higher levels have more uses (lvl3 I think)
thermometer, the lvl1 is actually pretty nice since it's realtime, while the electronic ones are slower BUT they're more accurate.
DOTS, no doubt, upgrade it.
the writing book lvl1 is trash, anything better is gold.
spiritbox level 2 is fine.
uv light lvl2/3 is better since it has more range but the lvl1 is actually pretty good due to being able to throw it on the floor and it working pretty neat.
flashlight, higher levels = more light. I don't really use them in the house maps since i prefer an extra inv slot and the headlamp is ok for me. (playing with brightness maxed out anyways)
salt is another one of the ones that can help you out a lot depending on the level.
same for the tripod, higher level has rotation which is neat.
Me and my friend just started playing this game and your videos have been a huge help.
I was finally starting to get comfortable on professional and then I got auto hunted at 99 sanity by a demon and it made me actually scream out loud. 10/10
I recently had a run of 3 ghosts that gave themselves away within a minute of me walking into the map. Demon hunted almost as soon as i walked in the door (default professional). Then i had a ghost where i walked in the door, said "where are you", heard something in the dining room and when i got there the table was completely cleared. And finally i walked in, said "where are you" and the door next to me went from 100% open to 100% closed.
If it wasn't for you and Psycho i probably wouldn't have known what any of that meant, so thanks for all the tutorializing. It really helps.
I hope they leave the Obake pause in as a real thing going forward. It's actually a cool way to detect them and very telling. Other ghosts have very distinct hunting abilities and the Obake is otherwise a pretty unremarkable ghost. It's basically a crossdressing Spirit with different evidence.
Ive had several games where i just couldnt get spirit box (despite that being the evidence). I would walk around in the room talking for 2-3 minutes and it would never respond. Tier 1 is now a guessing game when you only get 2/3 evidence between dots and spirit box.

CJ hearing this: Awww, gee thanks Insym I appreciate your feedback. I really fixed that shitty old UI didn't I?
DK, an Indie dev doing his best: -_- ....
Thank you insym for caring about the new player experience because the devs sure as hell do not
The devs cares alot about the players so please don't disrespect them. That's why these videos are made to help new players the devs are pretty chill people and interactive. It takes time to learn. You can have the ghost set to friendly to learn more about the ghost
Another crybaby about the update. If you think this is “new player experience” then you are sorely mistaken. New players aren’t playing on nightmare and getting hunted 10 seconds after walking into the house. Try playing on amateur like a real new player and the game is completely fine. They give you just enough items to start with to learn before you start unlocking more and more.
Starting out with the best stuff and earning the crap stuff later on would be pointless
Exactely. Start at amateur and then go to higher difficulties once you unlocked better equipment and gained more experience. Also, don't play on medium or large maps unless you have better equipment or are a really good player. The small maps are way easier, especially the normal houses. @@davidwaxter66
yea i'd hate to say it but since the update with tier items phasmo became less fun. i was getting frustrated by the equipment not working as it used to, the leveling/progression system is satisfying but the gameplay itself isn't as fun as it was. it has become more challenging and if challenging is fun then that's fine but it isn't for me
Have to agree, I get bored wandering around with no clues ( or clues that mislead e.g bad emf monitor saying 5 but its not 5! ) appearing. Use to be much more fun with less grind when it first came out
Insym is amazing. uploads twice a day, he's insane w it. he NEVER leaves us bored. queenie fr

New viewer, watching your vids for only a few days. And yet, I only leveled up at all because of your advice. Subbed, and staying for good!

Just wanted to say we appreciate you insym, keep it up
I have to applaud you, good sir on those massive balls of steel you appear to have. Cuz I'mma lil' b***h when it comes to this game and the scare factor! Haven't played in a LONG time but you were the one I came looking for when I heard about the new update. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication to this game and it's players. I'd have given up the game entirely if you didn't do what you do.
Insym's strategies have made such a huge difference. Looping has saved me SO many times. I play casually with friends and have been able to upgrade some equipment, but I like the challenge. ❤
How would they fix the problem of having a huge difficulty curve due to T1 equipment, though?
The intent is that maybe new players are intended to start on lower difficulties to offset the item inadequacy? An idea I had is to start new players with T2 gear until they prestige the first time to give them time to get a feel for the game? Or maybe an option in custom difficulty that allows automatic t2 or t3 at the cost of rewards, say x0.3 for free t2 and x0 for free t3 items where these settings give you the full loadout for just that mission, overwriting any items you own.
Could also practice getting standard evidence with friendly ghost mode until you're more comfortable with how they work.
Assuming they fix dots 😅
@53:40 That's how Myling should be. Mylings should be able to hunt without the warning noise and come at you like the fucking Predator. That would make the game 1000 times scarier and make the Myling way cooler
Loosing the D.O.T.S was so relatable. Made me LOL. Thanks for the video.
20:00 that bed likes to eat equipment, last time the blanket just ate my writing book😂
When i first started with the t1 items, i literally only got like 50% of ghosts correct, and made like maybe 400 bucks per mission....
Then I did some no evidence, had a 90% success rate, made 1500 per mission, and the missions were like 10x faster.
It just shows how awful the tier 1 items are, that literally using NOTHING is better than using them, lol.
Can we petition to have the crucifix to be wall mountable, and when it gets used, it turns upside-down as well?
12:23 i genuinely thought it was MY computer having an existential crisis 💀💀
I'm actually quite happy the game is more difficult. I remember back when the game first came out, when the original thermo was the easiest way to locate a ghost room and start piling in all your gear (since the ghost didn't roam yet at this point.)
The game was literally so easy my parents who wanted to join in from overseas started to figure it out and get a little bored. The game requires a lot more thought and patience.
I think we forget that many of us started this new update with the 1st prestige with everything unlocked. As a new player, by the time you start getting T2 items, you begin unlocking the harder difficulties and larger maps, which almost require the more advanced items to tackle with efficiency. I haven't started unlocking T3 items yet and I still find myself really struggling with full-size Asylum without a headlight and better candles.
I won't be surprised if CJ makes the T1 essential items a bit better for the sake of raising the skill floor, but as long as the skill ceiling doesn't get pulled down, I'll be happy with the changes.
The game has come full circle bro. Guess what my go to item to find the ghost room is now? The T1 thermo. It's so busted man lol. Sometimes I'll find the ghost room before it does a single interaction
@@IDyn4m1CI It's really funny how the T1 Thermo is so good for locating the ghost room. Though it's a struggle to confirm freezing with it when it counts. Broken detection tool, not so much an evidence tool compared to the T3 thermo. Far too often my team is squinting at the T1 thermo wondering if it's actually freezing or not.
@@nanakixiii3 Yeah I mainly use it to find the ghost room, I don't really count on it for finding freezing temps lol
As someone who started playing for the first time after the update and has all tier 3 at this point: the tier 1 DOTS is hot dog-shit in 90% of locations. It works alright in thin hallways where you can bounce it off of walls and/or prop it up on a table/chair. But if you get an even remotely open door-way to the room you're fucked and most likely just aren't going to get it. I had no problems with the other evidences.
On another note, I hate the tier 1 ghost orbs because the screen is SO small, it forces me to sit so unhealthily in order to accurately gauge whether it's orbs or not, I had no problems identifying orbs or not, but the screen size genuinely needs a change imo, it's unergonomic and forces bad habits.
EDIT: I would like to add, new players do NOT get smudges, it's gated behind like level 15 or 20 I can't remember exactly when. For a surprisingly long time, if the ghost sees you and you don't know how to loop (which new players don't) you're just fucked.
come back to game after 4 months. pre-update nightmare was my playground but now new update got me died by a lot even at professional.
tier 1 really made game harder for sure and I don't have other choice but to endure with them until I can unlock further tier xD
You would think that these ghost hunters, knowing that smudge sticks have different time effects for Moroi/demon/spirit, would have started bringing in a stopwatch or a watch in general to keep track of these measurements
15:25 THANKYOU!! I felt bad on my performance alot more after the big update, before that I always play nightmare with my friends and we get most ghosts correct. We're just casual players but it's still fun nonetheless though , sometimes abit pain cus tier 1 stuffs take alot of your time 😅
One problem with this video is that new players don't start with smudge sticks and it takes more than a dozen levels to aquire. It would have been more appropriate for a video for new players to start with no smudge sticks as a reference to a lvl 1 player.
I tried doing nightmare to speed up my leveling and my god I cannot tell you how many times the tier 1 spirit box made me choose the wrong ghost
How to deal with having shitty equipment on nightmare mode ------> KNOWLEDGE!
I bought a USB pedal to use with livesplit so I can time precisely the smudge time and the hunt time. I sometimes have difficulty saying when a hunt stops if there is no lights. But it was really useful one time my partner said "this is a demon. It hunted too fast" and I could say "no, it wasn't too fast. Last hunt was 26 seconds ago". I'm glad I prevented the group leaving with a false assumption :D
The new progression system has some real problems. The fact that you effectively start the game on hard mode, and then unlock easy mode later down the line, seems a little counterintuitive.
I think what would have been nice is everything that is T2 should have been T1, T3 should have been T2 and then for T3 they should have just come up with some cool additional functions for the items on top of their basic functions but kept the usability the same. This way T1 actually functions and doesn't feel like you are just completely hamstrung by garbage gear and T3 wouldn't be OP would just add some cool extra stuff to make T3 not required but maybe just more fun.
Starting out with the stuff that makes the game easy just to level up and earn stuff that is worse makes no sense. Most people wouldn’t choose to use the shittier gear unless they are trying to challenge themselves but using worse gear doesn’t give you better rewards so they would just stick to the better gear and change the settings to make it harder and earn more rewards
Learned all the ghosts abilities and common things they do so tier 1 items are no problem, love the new system 👍
I spent last night trying to get a friend acquainted with the game. Trying to teach hiding spots and loops. He died on all but one investigation, lol. Good thing I've been footing the bill.
I just started playing this game last week and so far I think it’s pretty fun, the tier 1 thermometer is my favorite over the 2nd and 3rd by far.
Hi... I've been watching you for a long time and I love how you explain how to play Phasmophobia. I'm a brand new player, I started playing when there was this big update and as a new player I have 2 big problems when I play.
1. is that I can't distinguish between the hunt and the event and 2. is that when there is a hunt I can't see the ghost (ever), I never know exactly where it is. Could you perhaps explain how I go about these problems? Thank you... Luv your videos 😀
for 1. at least, usually a ghost event will either have a light go out/change color or close a door. if neither of these things happen, it could be a hunt. also, when doing an event the ghost will physically manifest immediately, whereas during a hunt there is a grace period where it will not be visible--you can only hear it. so if it pops up right in front of you you know its an event for sure. finally, when the ghost hunts it will lock the front door which has a distinct sound, so if youre close to the entrance youll be able to hear the sound of the lock when it begins a hunt. combining all these three things where relevant will help you distinguish a good majority of the time, but if youre ever unsure its worse to die than to miss out on a ghost photo, so always run as your default as a new player!
@@addimcfarlane5510 Thank you for tips, I will try to pay attention to these things 😀 Do you have any idea why I never see a ghost? The light always goes out and I always turn off my flashlight... Do I have to leave the flashlight on? 🤔 Insym always says you have to turn off your equipment 🤣 I'm confused
1. Keep the door in sight. The door will only close during a hunt or fake-hunt event. Listen for the door shutting noise. Just hide. It's always safe to do so.
2. Turn your brightness up. 90% of the players have their brightness up.
@HuffyT turn your flashlight off only seconds before you've safely arrived in the hiding spot.
I really liked starting with complete garbage. In fact I've loved the grind too. The game is honestly way more fun now that you have an actual progression system and every upgrade feels like a massive upgrade. It fits very well with the difficulty system because some of the items really do just let you go up in difficulty like having less or no evidence because the equipment just straight up tells you the ghost sometimes. I think the tier 3 EMF is the best example. It just flatout tells you that you have a twins when it does the double interaction. Same with something like a Yurei. Progression is a good thing and it's honestly not that long of a grind if you actually want to level up. They have given all of the tools to level up very quickly if you choose to do so by just spamming Tanglewood with very easy settings that still give a 4x multiplier.
The items are significant upgrades every time you get one and it is very satisfying going up in tiers. I have an actual goal now every time I play which has vastly upped the replayability. It has the perfect perfect learning curve as well.
I don't really like the garbage T1 items, but I do like unlocking more powerful items, feels very rewarding. I'm going for my 2nd prestige now, and luckily I have a friend that is not on the same lvl as me, so he can put in his T2 T3 items when I only have the T1 garbage unlocked lol.
I appreciate you repeat information. There is so much to take in, and things change so much that you are doing a service by doing this.
Something Insym doesn't address in these that would be good to add I think is the ghost name.
Out of habit he always checks it because back in the old times we thought it was significant but it just doesn't do much anymore if at all, and he doesn't go out of his way to tell people to use it but it might be nice to point out that you don't need it and it's a relic of the games' design.
I know it's all implied or unneeded but still, just a thought that occurred to me.
I got over 500hr in this game and still have trouble with the tier 1 stuff. Specially the DOTS with a Goryo and ONLY A GORYO i dont get DOTS. So if I see DOTS on Cam while im in truck then i KNOW it aint Goryo lol😂
When he talks looking at the side monitor, does anyone else imagines he's talking to a tiny person?
i just wanna mention, if you want a safer way of looking for dots, you can place down a camera and dots pen and then stare at the dots on the truck monitor.
also: T1 emf reader can _jump_ to emf 5, especially if a ghost event just happened (which produces emf 4). that does not mean it's emf 5. for an actual emf 5, it'll be going crazy and show _emf 5 and above._ just make sure the ghost isn't manifesting before you write it down, although according to the wiki that should only make it go from 1-4.
go into training or a custom game with a friendly ghost to get a feel for how it works.
Something you said made me wonder: are there limitations on the ghost when it changes rooms? Can it literally go anywhere on the map, or is it limited to rooms near/adjacent to the ghost room? (Eg within two rooms adjacent or similar?)
Surprised nobody answered your question. I can't say for certain this is how the game works, but anecdotally it switches to adjacent rooms. On higher difficulties it can change rooms quickly, but I don't believe it can jump across the house instantaneously.
@@clocked0 Thank you, that super helpful!
🎶 Ring around the rosies, a pocket full of posies… 🎶
Dammit. 10x more difficult? Well, that's gonna be a real difficult grind, just to level up threw all 3 tiers.
This game has really evolved with this update, ive been having so much fun with it
Challenge should be a true causal/ beginner NO pills, smudge, or cross, Tier 1 only Must get all three evident before choosing the ghost type. This game is no longer for causal players. For two years this has been the perfect game for a quick play now it is just a grind.
Insym (and Psycho) are why I will never get bored with this game
I set the dots flashlight within view of the camera so I can sit in the van and watch. Normally I find if you watch a minute or two on a few trips back to the truck the ghost shows up.
I played when the game first came out and got to ab level 300 then stopped after the first major update but have recently jumped back into it and it’s been crazy the amount of stuff I’ve had to learn and catch up on but it’s been a really fun learning experience. Having INSYM has been super great also as he’s helped me learn so much so quickly
You're great. Thanks to your tips, I have a good feeling about playing in VR after the update. Keep it up.
most of the tier 1 items have less charges anyway, I think what they should do is make them have the same efficiency in range as tier 2, but keep their low efectiveness or keep their low range bt increase their efectiveness to tier 2 levels, it feels like a duble nerf. the salt, has a very tiny area anyway, why also take off 1 charge now... or the cross, it has a small area and only one charge, which is like a 2x nerf conpared to tier 2 that has 2 charges and bigger range. same for the book, low response rate and smaller area makes it feel extra less efective than tier 2 at least for the main evidence colecting items... it may make new players feel they are not using the toold correctly, but is mostly the equipment fault.
Holding the dots makes it easier, sure, but if you're using even the SHITTY cameras, you can still place the tier 1 DOTS projector. place it on a somewhat lifted surface, if possible, with the dots pointed at a wall within view of the camera. Even then, just having it up against /a/ surface helps, and we've had a lot easier of a time getting DOTS that way.
if anyone can explain how i can tell if the ghost is doing a ghost event or a hunt? I've been having trouble figuring that out
When in doubt just run. Like if you can instantly see the ghost just standing there, humming or singing, then you know for a fact it can't be a hunt. If there's a crucifix covering the entire room, and the ghost appears in that room? Can't be a hunt either. Ghost showed up but front door is still open? Not a hunt. But any situation other than that and the ghost appears? I'm running
T1 DOTS feels physically painful to use.
that onryo ghost room change happened to one of our games - but it was an obake ... most rooms didn't hav freezing breath coz the temps aren't low ... then we were in the library room in prison... suddenly we start breathing freezing breath... then suddenly it hunted ... probably one of the scariest encounter coz it found us ... lol
The ghost is lost in the sauce, OH NOH MARIO NOT THE TOMATO SAUCE FOR THA SPAGETTHI!
I had a Spirit accidently turn off a light right after I turned it on so I filled in Mare and left. Yeah... That was unfortunate.
It was 0 sanity, no evidence and was a normal speed ghost during the hunt then did that.
I would like to see you make a Ghost Tier List, Item Tier List & Map Tier List for Phasmo's latest update. It would be great to learn more from you. Thanks!
Insym is the reason why I got into phasmaphobia
I don't understand I try hiding or looping around the cars exactly like you do, and they always are way faster than the ghosts in your videos move. I can move around Tanglewood without a flashlight, and only play one level above the lowest. Also, if it sees me hide I die, but I usually hide really early in the hunts, and mute my mic, and turn off my equipment. why are all my ghosts so fast?
I play on Steam, I'm not sure if that makes a difference, or what you play on, the headcam at tier 1 doesn't show up on my screen. it lets me wear and use it, no problem, but doesn't cause anything to block my view.
Hey Insym, you may have played it recently but if not Ghost Exorcism Inc. has gotten some updates: new modes, new ghost and more. It would be awesome to watch you play it again.
If your monitor has a shadow control option you can change the contrast of the game's shadows and then up the brightness to play that way, hope this helps some people.
Yeah...T1 items are just doodoo lol. The few friends I had that were willing to play Phasmo with me all decided they were no longer enjoying the game at all with the T1 items and didn't want to suffer through getting everything up to T2 withkit actually enjoying themselves so they stopped playing with me.
They fixed the spirit box in VR. Past few weeks it couldlnt be picked up. But now VR sanity is insane. Doesnt really drop at all anymore, as long as the lights are on.
Yooo the new patch notes make it so I can grab my spirit box in VR again hell yeah. Also the lighting was changed so now you don't have to actually be in the light to reduce sanity; as long as the light in the room is on, you're good.
I bought the game on its release and I have only 150 hours played because I don't have time. Thanks to you, I know some tricks to be good at the game because it get more difficult in every update. Thanks for your explanations.
Might I suggest putting the dots pen on the stand with the radio, facing alongside the bed? Might get dots easier? I'm not sure, stuff is just hard to figure where to place things lol
Nvm, got to the part where you sneakily put it on the head board of the bed XD
I think with the first ghost he forgot freezing temperatures is an evidence piece and due to nightmare difficulty having 1 less evidence present I think we all know what happened
I started playing about 4 days ago with my girlfriend next to me, we both went in blind and after doing the tutorial we guessed wrong for each ghost for about 3-4 runs in a row. I personally got real upset because the tools never seemed to pick up any evidence, or the evidence behaved on a seemingly completely different ruleset from the tutorial.
We'd check items that got interacted with with a UV light - nothing, multiple times, nothing. Only to cross that off as possibility, and then see the correct ghost DID in fact leave UV traces - yeah I'm new but I don't think the tutorial explained that there's only a CHANCE of getting a print after literally watching something happen. This is one example, but as a new player it felt like a big middle finger for playing the tutorial and jumping in.
I ended up closing it and not relaunching it after a few hours of playtime because I really did think that the ghosts were breaking the rules of the tutorial to trick me. My girlfriend started watching guides including your videos, and now it makes sense - but holy shit this game by itself didn't hardly explain a god damn thing. Level 8 currently and my god is it a slow process to level up - I just want to use decent tools and it's really going to take a LONG time playing casually.
My wife and I started playing this game when it first came out, previous to the update we were level 100+ and considered ourselves pretty proficient ghost hunters. Since we came back a couple of weeks ago, we have been extremely humbled.
Insym was LVL 16661 before the update lol 😆 i was 416 and there is still sooooooooo much to learn
Phasmo used to be legit so much fun. Now its pretty much another elitists ghost hunting game where the only REAL advice to give someone is just "know everything about the game bruh" at which point it looses its fear factor and turns into annoyance very fast.
Especially with ghosts REFUSING to give any evidence and just defaulting to getting it to hunt and figuring out in like 10 seconds.
Went from a Ghost investigation game to a Ghost Antagonist game imo.
Idk what you're talking about, Phasmo for me is still as fun as the first time I've played it in 2020. Of course personally the fear factor is now long gone, but this is what tend to happens, you get used to the game and it doesn't remain scary forever. But it its still my favorite game to hop in with a few friends, play casually and have fun
@IDyn4m1CI It feels less like an investigation when u literally have to shove the equipment down the ghosts neck to MAYBE get the evidence or maybe get hunted and figure out the ghost that way.
What's the point of investigating if it's really not needed most of the time or just too artificial to do coz u can legit spend 20 minutes trying to get the ghost to interact with say a book for writing but it just never does and instead prefers to just enjoy your company, wasting time for no reason so to speak.
It gets old fast
even with 200 hours in this game before the update I got bamboozled by the T1 EMF constantly because I thought it was going to 5 when it wasnt. I think for the sake of clarity they should make that distinction clear and easy to tell with no gray area for the sake of the beginners and console release
1:10:31 it'd be really cool if each ghost model had it's own footstep audio. So when the Obake shifted it was audible in a way that wasn't a bug.
That wouldnt be fun because it would be 1 hunt and boom.
@@mahiwaga3308 it would only be relevant to the obake because only the obake can shapeshift (unless its mimic obake). So if it's a child it's got a lighter footstep than the fat guy. And just to clarify, I'm not saying different ghost types have different footsteps. Just their models.
i always appreciate your uploads! they give me something to look forward to and to watch while i eat my meals for the day and have other downtime. i appreciate your passion and dedication to uploading, thanks for making your communitys days brighter :)
I totally forgot i caught this stream so was going insane with "wait i know this, he said this before what the fuck"
So now its a question of "is it not the right evidence or is the T1 equipment just not working"
They could add a wristwatch on players model with timer function
I don't agree, some of the T1 gear is bad like the DOTS, Book and Spirit Box but the Thermo, UV and Incense are best at T1 and a lot of the others like the Salt, EMF, Candle, Matches, Motion Sensor, Parabolic Mic, Camera, Sanity Meds and Tripod are all perfectly suitable for getting evidence and checking off objectives at T1.
Insym dead ass the best content creator~
We love you insymmm❤
The next 4 AM Insym video, let's go
I can nearly guarantee you that besides raising the chance to answer on the spirit box, devs made it so saying the ghost's name out loud increases its chances to hunt
If I’m being completely honest, I like tier 1 temperature more than tier 3
Damn that onryo was crazy, would have absolutely fooled me too
OMG Yeah I started the game I think right after this update, and I legit had no idea what counted as a legit evidence on the EMF and Thermometer (still are a little iffy on those). I watched so many different videos on how all those items worked.
I wonder if we'll ever get a stamina bar.
wait why are the candles called firelights? seems like an odd choice
Wouldn't a really simple way to make it better for new players is to only have "easier" ghost types on lower difficulties and all of them as possibilities on professional +?
Yeah tbh I was thinking the same thing. Have some ghosts completely blocked on amateur and intermediate and only appear on professional+. Because something like a Goryo for example is completely unfair to new players because of how stupid it is to get its DOTs. And they won't have the knowledge to tell its a Goryo without the evidence.
Tier 1 has been a challenge. I enjoy the challenge but I only play in VR so phasmo was already more challenging. Some changes have really upped the difficulty as I play with the tier 1. Like till the update on September 6 I could not pick up Spirit Box anywhere but the truck. I'm terrified the matches will take both VR hands to light and I guess I'll have to light the smudge off my belt.
19:58 How to setup Tier 1 DOTS
I only had trouble with the dots so far from the tier 1 items. All the others worked pretty well for me.
My issue is with the thermometer. Does the thermometer purposely sit at like 1 degree above freezing to throw you off about the temperature?
My main problem is that you dont get smudgies or sanity pills until the teen levels. it sucks having the ghost already hunting before you can even get all the crap in the house.
You don't start with crucifix either. The lack of defensive options as a new player is the thing that's actually killing me right now. If you can't identify the ghost while hunting you're pretty screwed because it's so difficult to get evidence before your sanity hits 0 with the new tier one stuff.
Just had an Onryo zooming like a Morio...
Guess it's a new bug
