The whole Spike and Barley thing reminds me of early yogscast, with shadow of israphel. I have probably the biggest youtube nostalgia for that series, and it's pretty much the same thing, 2 guys play a game and then it comes alive and fucks with them.
I remember i tried playing Afraid of Monsters (Director's cut) back in the day and after i turned the lightswitch off in the hospital, i was too scared to play it anymore. Oh yes, i was happy i managed to discover spike and barley playing back in 2011 after looking for some gameplay videos from svencoop. Easily my favorite youtube gaming duos to date :3 !! Loved their sven coop and doom playthroughs !
+Andrew Cochrane Hey! I also accompany you and Spike for a long time. I'm also a fan of your videos on your main channell, While i understand you don't upload too often anymore, i still enjoy from time to time seein your videos. That is a way to me saying thank you, as did Scarfulhu on the video.
Spike and Barley was immediately on my mind when I saw the thumbnail, I love that you brought mention to them because they are 2 of my favorite guys to watch. Anyway, great video.
Holy crap! I wasn't expecting a reply, And that fast too? In all seriousness, not judging. I'm a firm believer that you're just in it for the time management and commentary. Definitely.
I've been meaning to say this for the past few videos, but it always slipped my mind: you've really stepped up your game. Not just in terms of content output, but just overall ratio of good game analysis with out pretensions and your brand of humor&editing. This game seems really inspired by Silent Hill judging by how it starts, with some Max Payne thrown in as well.
This is one of your best videos in a while. Since updating your formula you've seemed to put a little bit more of a personal twist in your videos and I like that! You do good Scarfulhu. You do good.
In 2 weeks, I expect to be out of my exams already, and I want to start my own review channel (in Spanish though). You know why? Because of you, my friend. You are now the inspiration for people like me. Thank you so much for time and for this amazing videos man.
+Xtreme Games Try watching Grim Beard's videos too. They have a pretty similar format and Grim Beard has like 500 subscribers. Try this one /watch?v=zhPlBzTpqxY
Bro, as soon I saw the title of this video, I was gonna mention the Spike and Barley, it's soooo awesome knowing you're a fan too, still my favorite lets players on RUclips
I have youtube nostalgia too, and it definitely shaped my tastes. I don't know if I 'd be into retro and/or quirky games if it weren't for youtube videos.
5:26 Funny you say that, because there actually *was* an ichthyosaur in the water in the 2005 version of AoM, probably removed because it didn’t fit with the games theme very well in the DC version.
Those twisted spider things are actually remodelled Alien Slaves, and the giant faces are just invisible Alien Grunts with their muzzle flash retextured as a face.
Exactly the very reason i like that game is because of Spike and Barley, i will forever adore their videos. Now it's your turn to make a legacy as good as them.
There were ichthyosaurs in the sewers in the original AoM so you had every right to be freaked out by the sewer though they (thankfully) didn't show up in DC. The distorted Abominations are just extremely fucked up Vortigaunts, changed up from the original AoM Vortigaunt reskins with insta-kill melee attacks. The most brilliant is the Bleeding Specters because of the fact they're simply invisible agrunts with the Hive Hand muzzle flash replaced by the giant face and the crunching stinging noise replaced by child laughter.
Wait, so, did the guy playing David in the spike and barley play through possibly inspire the "phantom Simon" in cry if fears multiplayer? He pops up every so often and acts like a mini boss.
If it's not possible to make a light cone on the half life engine, he could have at least emulated the cone by making a lot of spots that make up a cone. Regardless, this is great work.
Amazing video as always really enjoyed this mod despite its flaws however why no 60FPS? internet speed? it makes it so much nicer to watch the gameplay, thanks again.
Stellar review, mate, and I realy like how you talk about your influences :) Very inspirational. Shame this game seems to be far too spoopy for my liking :-X Oh, and I adore how you pronounce "face" :D
So i checked out your streams yesterday, and woah! You have alot of potential to be a brilliant streamer in the future. Your an amazing and funny dude and it was cool to talk to you! (Heh, even if i did fill the stream with terrible puns, and called you a wimp ;-) ;-) )
Oh, Scarfy, you sexy bastard, you've really been coming out with a lot of new videos recently. That's friggin awesome, man! I love you, Scarfy. Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn
How topical that I'd watch this video when RUclips's Content ID has changed for the better now, and Doug Walker wanted people to talk about the games, movies, or whatever media they bought because of online personalities. It all comes full circle.
SPOILERS FOR CRY OF FEAR AHEAD 4:44 This is super weird because in one of the Cry of Fear endings it's revealed that David is the one who crippled Simon by hitting him with his car.
Actually I am excited when I get whoppits. That means I can defend my self from the spooky scary skeletons that talk to me in my sleep that send shivers down my spine, while screaching, and for revealing this information will probably deal my doom tonight.
Those water things from Half Life, the Ichthyosaur, were probably the spookies things ever in video games. I just hope they aren't in Afraid of Monsters...
So, the guy who did Afraid of Monster and Cry of Fear went to do something else, like a full game or something like that? I mean, the guy had a lot of talent.
Silly Scarfulhu, it doesn't need to be Halloween to feel the allure of "the spooky". It can happen any time... any place... Why, "the spooky" may be behind you right now. Yeah. That's "the spooky" you're feeling... right now. I typed it's name three times which summoned it to me but now you've read it's name three times and it has been called to you. 01010100010010000100010100100000010100110101000001001111010011110100101101011001001000000100100001000001010100110010000001000011010011110100110101000101001011100010000001010010010001010100101001001111010010010100001101000101001011100010000001010100010010000100010100100000010001010100111001000100001000000100100101010011001000000100111001001001010001110100100000101110
Hey that's me too! Thanks for the video! :) /Andreas aka ruMpel
You must see my AOM videos ony channel just look it up on my videos
TeamPsykskallar hey you should remake afraid of monsters updated like they way you made cry of fear like the graphics and s**t
It's hard to stop asking for more when the stuff they do is so good and diferent from the rest...
there's a bug in cry of fear where the note at the start of the game the 54 one wont let you exit the note
The whole Spike and Barley thing reminds me of early yogscast, with shadow of israphel. I have probably the biggest youtube nostalgia for that series, and it's pretty much the same thing, 2 guys play a game and then it comes alive and fucks with them.
Holy fucking shit I feel the exact same way, I can't believe I found a comment like this lmao
I remember i tried playing Afraid of Monsters (Director's cut) back in the day and after i turned the lightswitch off in the hospital, i was too scared to play it anymore.
Oh yes, i was happy i managed to discover spike and barley playing back in 2011 after looking for some gameplay videos from svencoop. Easily my favorite youtube gaming duos to date :3 !! Loved their sven coop and doom playthroughs !

+Scarfulhu This video made me check out Spike & Barley's channel. Thank you and keep up the good work.
+Andrew Cochrane Hey! I also accompany you and Spike for a long time. I'm also a fan of your videos on your main channell, While i understand you don't upload too often anymore, i still enjoy from time to time seein your videos. That is a way to me saying thank you, as did Scarfulhu on the video.
+Andrew Cochrane hey are ya ever gonna release any solo vids in the next few years? cause that shit is top quality but your channels been rip ;_;
This brought me back. Half-life Gold had a truly fantastic modding community.
Thanks Scarfulhu ^^
Spike and Barley was immediately on my mind when I saw the thumbnail, I love that you brought mention to them because they are 2 of my favorite guys to watch. Anyway, great video.
Yeah! Spike & Barley really enjoy these guys.
jeez, man. you're on fire with all these quality uploads. keep it up!
random sidenote: I really miss Spike & Barley. that channel was pure gold.
There is a huniecam studio on that video list and it says "watched."
I'm so proud of you.
Scarfulhu Exposed.
Holy crap! I wasn't expecting a reply, And that fast too?
In all seriousness, not judging.
I'm a firm believer that you're just in it for the time management and commentary. Definitely.
+BananaBros Gaming, scarf is at the "I have to read the comments" stage of being a youtuber. They only stop around 100,000 :P
+Robin de Oliveira he certainly deserves 100,000 subs.
I love Team Psykskallar's games so much. Cry of Fear in particular is my favorite horror game of all time

i really like your documentary styled videos

It's been 5 years... when are we gonna see that show of yours?
You're slowly becoming my favorite reviewer.
+Xtreme Games Try watching Grim Beard's videos too. They have a pretty similar format and Grim Beard has like 500 subscribers. Try this one /watch?v=zhPlBzTpqxY
+Billybiscuits13 Thanks for the suggestion I liked it! I think I'm going tu subscribe :)
Me too! But im still between caddy, AVGN, and scarf.
(NEVER FORGET THE DAMM SCARF
It took you this long for that to happen?
Oh my goodness, Spike and Barley is why I was so excited to see your video on this! I have the same nostalgia!
Remodeling at the end
i love you for mentioning spike and barley!!!! theyNEED more recognition!!
Bro, as soon I saw the title of this video, I was gonna mention the Spike and Barley, it's soooo awesome knowing you're a fan too, still my favorite lets players on RUclips
Seeing as I showed up during the last minute of your AoM stream I'm glad you made a video about it. So I kinda-almost didn't miss it
Holy shit. Posted 1 minute ago? Convenient timing.
Glad you're still making so much stuff, Scarf.
-hulu
*-ulhu
damn autocorrect
God, I've been waiting for people to talk about this game for a long time.
Thank you.
Afraid of Monsters is a mod that kind of got me into modding and game developing. It's one of my favorite mod for any game ever.
Thoroughly enjoyed this vid! And I have a feeling I'd really like Spike and Barley. Keep it up Scarfulhu buddy! 😄
SPIKE & BARLEY are underrated Let's player, I'm big fan those guys. I love their video, they make me laugh so much and I cry in tear x3
I have youtube nostalgia too, and it definitely shaped my tastes. I don't know if I 'd be into retro and/or quirky games if it weren't for youtube videos.
Good as always Scarfulu
Oh shit that S & B throwback! Man I loved those boys, I'm glad there's still folks that know of the lil ole men!
I came across okami for the wii after watching a lets play of it, and now I am playing it, and loving the heck out of that game.
100th. Silly firsts.
Great video Scarfulhu, one day I'll kiss you on the cheek for being so damn great. Congrats on keeping up the pace, Strong Bad.
5:26 Funny you say that, because there actually *was* an ichthyosaur in the water in the 2005 version of AoM, probably removed because it didn’t fit with the games theme very well in the DC version.
Nice vid! I know this is two years old but I love this!
You've earned a new subscriber!
holy shit someone remembers afraid of monsters
Both mods are great! The Mistake mods are also good.
I miss Spike and Barley:c
Those twisted spider things are actually remodelled Alien Slaves, and the giant faces are just invisible Alien Grunts with their muzzle flash retextured as a face.
This has been a special Scarfulhu moment.

Brilliant review! Really glad I subscribed to you again.
Ouch. That Doom 3 burn was just cold. Accurate, but cold.
One of my favorite goldsource mods were they hunger episodes 1 through 3
A review of Fran Bow would be nice. Nice creepy little indie point and click. Very beautiful and mysterious.
Great video, man! c:
Loved the final bit
The beginning hospital area in this game is the scariest shit out of any game

So I'm not the only one who likes to celebrate Halloween in April? Seriously though I have that exact same skeleton out in my room right now! Lol
Now review Cry of Fear. I really want your opinions on the game, it's so
BLOODY
AMAZING
Exactly the very reason i like that game is because of Spike and Barley, i will forever adore their videos.
Now it's your turn to make a legacy as good as them.
Watching this on Halloween......the META though 0.0
I love you, Scarfulhu!
It's funny, I have a lot of strange nostalgia for this game too, except mine stems from Conne's numerous tf2 maps.
could you provide a link to a Mistake-1 walk-through? I can't find any on youtube
Another Sarfulhu video............THAT I HAVEN'T WATCHED!
There were ichthyosaurs in the sewers in the original AoM so you had every right to be freaked out by the sewer though they (thankfully) didn't show up in DC.
The distorted Abominations are just extremely fucked up Vortigaunts, changed up from the original AoM Vortigaunt reskins with insta-kill melee attacks.
The most brilliant is the Bleeding Specters because of the fact they're simply invisible agrunts with the Hive Hand muzzle flash replaced by the giant face and the crunching stinging noise replaced by child laughter.
Wait, so, did the guy playing David in the spike and barley play through possibly inspire the "phantom Simon" in cry if fears multiplayer? He pops up every so often and acts like a mini boss.
+spengrantest I think it actually was the inspiration. Can't confirm it though.
I could've sworn I saw Peter Capaldi move his eyes. Better call an exorcist, dude.
Gabriel Knight music spotted when talking about water! When will you do it?! Review it!
Did you use music from Phantasmagoria 2?
I did, yes.
If it's not possible to make a light cone on the half life engine, he could have at least emulated the cone by making a lot of spots that make up a cone. Regardless, this is great work.
I always celebrate Halloween. Don't worry, we don't mind the spooks.
I loved Cry Of Fear so I'm gonna have to give this a go
Do you upload your streams scarfulhu? If you do where could I see them?
I'VE NEVER BEEN SO EARLY. Ok that's a lie its happened a few times. BUT STILL WOOOOOOOOOO
"Listen, I'm allowed to enjoy my garbage, okay?"
You need a Trubbish plush.
Amazing video as always really enjoyed this mod despite its flaws however why no 60FPS? internet speed? it makes it so much nicer to watch the gameplay, thanks again.

Nice to see someone praising lets plays for once.
Yeah right! They have been getting so much hate lately.
Yeah right! They have been getting so much hate lately.
this game uses a lot of AT tracks from selected ambient works vol 2
So basically this mods a sort of First person Silent Hill with some more Jacob's Ladder rubbed in?
What's the song you were playing whilst talking about Spike and Barley's Playthrough? I recognize it as a tune from a Silent Hill game, but which one?
+Ben Bell 'Tears Of ...'
+Scarfulhu I've found out which game it's from. The ORIGINAL Silent Hill. Good Choice!
The original AOM from 2005 actually has Ichythosaurs in the sewer area but they aren’t that scary and are just black and white reskins.
Oh the good ol days of Spike & Barely...
This is very good
Btw i dont know what has tumblr has done to me
9:50 this event happened recently on Vinny Vinesauce, just the best kind of roleplay...
If you want to get mileage out of the skeleton you should name it and make it a mascot for the spooky games. Anyone have name ideas?

You should review They Hunger, one of the best HL mods ever.
Afraid of Monsters is less about horror and more about the downfall of an individual.
Hexen does have a backtracking problem, but everything else is so awesome I don't care (especially with the Wrath of Cronos mod installed)
+Dracomut Yeah it's still a lot of fun regardless of the backtracking. Might cover it at some point? We'll see.
MEESTER MAN!
This seems like a cool mod. :O
Oh, Scarfy, you sexy bastard, you've really been coming out with a lot of new videos recently.
That's friggin awesome, man!
I love you, Scarfy.

He needs to do the Ghoul's Forest thing he teased already.
SPOILERS FOR CRY OF FEAR AHEAD
4:44 This is super weird because in one of the Cry of Fear endings it's revealed that David is the one who crippled Simon by hitting him with his car.
It's a joke ending
The opening scene in the bathroom is eerily reminiscent of Silent Hill 2...
Actually I am excited when I get whoppits.
That means I can defend my self from the spooky scary skeletons that talk to me in my sleep that send shivers down my spine, while screaching, and for revealing this information will probably deal my doom tonight.
Genious!!!
Hey what about the skeletons with osteoporosis? Brittle skeleton lives matter!
That outro music is...interesting.
Those water things from Half Life, the Ichthyosaur, were probably the spookies things ever in video games. I just hope they aren't in Afraid of Monsters...
I half expected Jordan Underneath to make an appearance
I'd love to see that collab. Love both of them to death. I was so happy when Jordan appeared on the Indeimaus show, too.
congrats on being casted as young Ned Stark
open a NEW TAB with Aphex Twin - Stone In Focus as background music
now play both videos at the same time... PERFECT!!!
What music did you use for your outro? (Great video, by the way.)
+Devil Child It's Remodelling from Silent Hill 4 (Although it's actually reused in Afraid of Monsters I believe)
Scarfulhu Thanks! :)
So, the guy who did Afraid of Monster and Cry of Fear went to do something else, like a full game or something like that? I mean, the guy had a lot of talent.
He's working on a new project that will be survival horror
You're awesome dude! The end fucking got me :')
Doom 3 did the flash light right though. I hated that BFG made it unable to be separated
I believe the common monster is called a "Twitcher".
Silly Scarfulhu, it doesn't need to be Halloween to feel the allure of "the spooky". It can happen any time... any place... Why, "the spooky" may be behind you right now. Yeah. That's "the spooky" you're feeling... right now. I typed it's name three times which summoned it to me but now you've read it's name three times and it has been called to you.
