I would like to thank and appreciate Lixian( and also MArk) for the extra step they took in putting epilepsy warnings on this video. My wife suffers from seizures but so many games, movies, live shows and so on just dont put in the same effort to protect and look out for them so neither of you will probably ever see this but i wanted to say, Big props
My sister has seizures as well and she loves markiplier and she was kinda sad when she couldn't watch this with me but I glad and thank him and Lixian that they put them here so I would know she couldn't watch it.
Imagine buying a house and it's really big but when you step inside it's tiny then you turn to the real estate agent and he goes "you have to go thru hauntings to unlock the rest of the house."
You better be watching videos like this at like 3 at night. - Which is what I do... ...with the lights off... ...and the doors unlocked... I'm so bored... Please someone or something come bother me! - Where are the burglars when you need them??... GAHH!!
Hey Lixian - thanks for adding in the flashing lights warnings but one thing - could you incorporate a pleasant, less than 1 second chime, ding, or beep to signal when it's safe to look back at the video? Really appreciate all that you do - keep up the good work! :)
Lmao I don't have these problems but I literally thought about this the other day. How the fuck have people on RUclips just gonna years without doing that. How has know one else seemed to have thought "how is the person gonna know when it's safe to look?". Everybody on RUclips should do it.
I never understood why games especially think flashing lights are scary. They are annoying more than they are scary. Especially with the risk of giving people seizures, I just never understood why they were so prominent.
i guess they think the dark is scary and showing Light but then dark makes it hard to see and it might be scary cuz those lights are broken and prob old idk so it is scarier i mean irl it is scary when u alone
someone pls make a video game where the protag has epilepsy and the demons or w/ have to take care of them and it turns into a cutsey doki doki type thing
Look i made the choice to watch this video at like 3am and then my a cious butt wanted to leave so i cam to comments this is amazing and i jow feel like crying from laughter instead of mild fear
My favourite Markiplier trope is when he claims a game is reusing assets or using something from unity (Not in an accusatory way but as an observation) but then the editor will point out he's just remembering when he played a demo/early version of the exact same game he's playing right now.
I had to double-check the title of the video, because MY dumbass thought, “Oh, not only are they reusing assets, but the names are similar too-Wait, is it just the same game??”
@@ly-de7ox You're right, this is definitely the Horror Engine asset from Unreal Engine. I've been messing with it the past month and they have the same item interaction system, trigger system and item inspection text style. Honestly a great starting point if you're trying to make a horror game on your own.
I was literally thinking of this game but didn't want to pause to figure out which one it was. The demo was great. I wouldn't say this was necessarily a mess, but it seemed like it was going to be coherent and then it just wasn't. Also the polaroid and grandfather clock made me think of Madison, which I hope Mark will play again with the full release comes out.
I just thought of something that would be an amazing psychological novel somewhat similar to this game. Something like this: The entire novel is from the MC's perspective, and they are seeing all sorts of odd events, hearing knocking, unable to open many doors, can move light objects like pictures, hears screams and whispers, and it messes with their mind until they end up curled up in a corner ignoring all that happens around it. Late in the story, the perspective switches to third person. It turns out that the MC is the ghost and it can see and hear things that are tied to the past of other spirits (blood on the walls, all the candles, the demonic rituals) and it views time at a greatly increased speed. The state and shape of the hallways changing, the placement of items, and the flickering of the lights is all just time passing and people moving things as time passes. The whispers are just the sound of conversations, the radio static is the audio changing rapidly, and the knocking is minor construction (boarding windows, fixing walls, etc). In the end, the MC still cannot tell what is going on and simply ends up becoming a derelict phantom in a dusty corner of an old house long abandoned.
“I WILL KILL YOU, you don’t think you can bleed??” Sounds like some hard line from a anime, like it was said to some demon in dororo or something, but... instead it was mark talking to a coat rack...
Coat racks are evil being. Don't get me wrong. They'll kill you in a split second if you do not watch your back~ better to kill themor keepthem friendly. Key to victory, use them as they're intended for and they'll gain respect for you
The atmosphere of the game, as well as the lighting, are actually quite good. But, like the creator's previous game, the story structure is just all over the place. The only reason why I'm watching is because of the entertainment value that Mark brings.
The PT is strong with this one. Not a bad game overall, albeit I feel it went on a bit too long for what little it was trying to portray and present. Also the main issue with haunted house-style games like this is that most of them feature no real actual threat to the player, which detracts from the overall fear aspect, as the player doesn't actually need to try and escape/survive the monster when it does attack. Which makes all the spooky sounds and imagery just come off as cheap jumpscares rather than an actual potential dangers. This is something that PT did really well but a lot of its imitators fail to acknowledge and capitalize on.
I agree with you, this game did drag on for a bit too long. Now that wouldn't have been a problem had the narrative been more clear and consice. Another thing, the reason this game doesn't actually have a "monster" that's a direct threat to the player is because it's a psychological horror game. Psychological horror games focus on the feelings and emotions of the user in lieu of their external persona. That's what this game was trying to achieve with their narrative I presume. Unfortunately however, the game's story got convoluted to the point where the psychological aspect of the game was poorly executed.
@@ryptic4455 Very good points. I will say that whilst psychological horror games don't need an active threat, they can still definitely benefit from it. As fear is one of the strongest emotions and most potent psychological stressors. And I definitely feel this game would have benefited from that, as it would have made the time- and space-loops way more intense whilst also benefiting the plot by acting as a distraction for the player as the story slowly unfolded. Really this game either needed to be shorter or it needed more clever story/action throughout.
@@celticluna1691 for meme comments to die off memes would have to die off, which is unlikely to ever happen because of how humans think. So how about instead you just stop looking at and replying to things you know you don't like?
I don't have epilepsy, but I would just like to say thank you because I know how much of a pain timestamps can be and was actually contemplating about making some myself. Have a great day!
I was looking for this to like it. I was hoping someone did this. I don't have epilepsy but it still hurts my eyes a bit so seeing this is amazing! Thank you
I do have a form of epilepsy and I will tell you, thank you so very much. Its so frustrating sometimes when I want to watch a markiplier video or any video most of the time I end up just clicking away from it instead of watching because I'm deathly afraid of having any of my episodes. So this really helps out a lot and I really appreciate the work you put into this for those of us who have seizures.
@@inferno7289 That's like saying to elderly "Stay inside because we all want freedom, but you're at risk of serious harm from COVID" If everyone just stayed inside, it wouldn't be as much of an issue, would it? Admittedly my analogy is a bit hard to follow, but what I'm saying is, while yes it is their responsibility to make sure they are safe, it is also our responsibility to help them keep themselves safe. That is exactly what Protagonistical has done. Helping those with epilepsy stay safe, while being able to have fun / enjoy themselves. It's why games have epilepsy warnings, rather than telling people to not play games.
lol honestly, I would have never remembered the video about find yourself, but that flashback brought it all back. That was unironically a very good job on lixians part.
"Anybody else wanna jump out and say hi?" *slightest creak* "No that was not actually an invitation-" Well if you're not gonna mean it, then don't say it Mark. It gives the monsters and demons mixed signals.
@Holl ywood For a small $70, you can buy a Blue Snowball. It's not the best mic in the world, but it's way better than whatever you have right now! Hope this helps!
@@chickenalpaca0332 I didn't watch the video because I didn't want to risk, but if there are more warnings before those moments, do you think I could watch it?
these developers had the right idea, especially for such a beautifully artistic game, something simple like the zoom feature is icing on a really good cake
The German part in the game that said "Jeden das seine" on the wall means " To each their own", it is somewhat of a meaning of "you do what you want", you think whatever or do what you think is best for you. if anyone is questioning it^^
4:13 Me watching by my lizard's enclosure Mark: you better be watching with your lights turned off Lights in the enclosure turn off Me: great comedic timing Mark! That's all, comedic timing, right?
This man has slowly helped me over the years to become immune to fear if you were alone in the woods at night just laugh, really fucking loudly, and then you were the scariest thing in there
I think he was schizophrenic and ended up hallucinating... Killing his wife and child but in his warped mind he believed his wife was compelled by a cult to kill their child.... Anyway I think that's what the ending was saying and he's still hallucinating to this day.
GOD DAMNIT! Just before 4:30 you said something like "Everyone at home should be watching this with the lights off!", and my lights TURNED OFF! They're automatic and I wasn't really moving, but the timing was PERFECT >.
i really like this game cause it seems that it explores the Horror genre in a more realistic way, as in reliving and being haunted by past traumas (the way I see it) instead of literal spirits haunting a person.
"I will kill you. You don't think you can bleed?" is such a hardcore line, and he said it to a coat rack.
To be fair, "I will straight up MURDER you" is a line I often say to my blender if it doesn't work right so I mean

Not a bad game overall, albeit I feel it went on a bit too long for what little it was trying to portray and present. Also the main issue with haunted house-style games like this is that most of them feature no real actual threat to the player, which detracts from the overall fear aspect, as the player doesn't actually need to try and escape/survive the monster when it does attack. Which makes all the spooky sounds and imagery just come off as cheap jumpscares rather than an actual potential dangers. This is something that PT did really well but a lot of its imitators fail to acknowledge and capitalize on.
I agree with you, this game did drag on for a bit too long. Now that wouldn't have been a problem had the narrative been more clear and consice. Another thing, the reason this game doesn't actually have a "monster" that's a direct threat to the player is because it's a psychological horror game. Psychological horror games focus on the feelings and emotions of the user in lieu of their external persona. That's what this game was trying to achieve with their narrative I presume. Unfortunately however, the game's story got convoluted to the point where the psychological aspect of the game was poorly executed.
@@ryptic4455 Very good points. I will say that whilst psychological horror games don't need an active threat, they can still definitely benefit from it. As fear is one of the strongest emotions and most potent psychological stressors. And I definitely feel this game would have benefited from that, as it would have made the time- and space-loops way more intense whilst also benefiting the plot by acting as a distraction for the player as the story slowly unfolded. Really this game either needed to be shorter or it needed more clever story/action throughout.

Mark: "These assets were used in another game."
Other game: LOCKED UP

For those in need, epilepsy warnings for flashing lights are in effect from 8:40 - 9:20, 10:48 - 11:36 (11:39 if you want to be entirely safe), 11:44 - 11:47, 13:52 - 13:58 (fairly minor but still included), 19:58 - 20:02 (very minor), 20:06 - 20:19, 20:24 - 21:00, 26:05 - 22:20, 23:23 - 24:05, 24:19 - 24:21 (minor), 25:59 - 26:11, 29:23 - 29:33 (also minor), 31:49 - 32:39, 33:18 - 33:28, 33:41 - 33:51, 34:13 - 34:23, 34:56 - 35:05, 46:41 - 46:50, 47:11 - 47:29, 48:07 - 48:14, 48:24 - 48:29, and 51:15 - 51:25.
These are the timestamps for Lixian's warnings to when I think it's safe to look, along with a few others that I included just to be on the safe side. I apologize if I missed anything. If there's a time stamp you think I should include, please comment and I will add them.
Hope this helps! Stay safe!
I don't have epilepsy, but I would just like to say thank you because I know how much of a pain timestamps can be and was actually contemplating about making some myself. Have a great day!
I was looking for this to like it. I was hoping someone did this. I don't have epilepsy but it still hurts my eyes a bit so seeing this is amazing! Thank you
I do have a form of epilepsy and I will tell you, thank you so very much. Its so frustrating sometimes when I want to watch a markiplier video or any video most of the time I end up just clicking away from it instead of watching because I'm deathly afraid of having any of my episodes. So this really helps out a lot and I really appreciate the work you put into this for those of us who have seizures.
or maybe don't watch the video if it puts your health at risk so much
@@inferno7289 That's like saying to elderly "Stay inside because we all want freedom, but you're at risk of serious harm from COVID" If everyone just stayed inside, it wouldn't be as much of an issue, would it?
Admittedly my analogy is a bit hard to follow, but what I'm saying is, while yes it is their responsibility to make sure they are safe, it is also our responsibility to help them keep themselves safe. That is exactly what Protagonistical has done. Helping those with epilepsy stay safe, while being able to have fun / enjoy themselves. It's why games have epilepsy warnings, rather than telling people to not play games.
“Mama's going to buy you a mockingbird”
Is correct, Markiplier 😂😂
5:30 PLEASE I JUMPED AND CHOKED ON MY FOOD 💀🤚
Mark: Hit 'em with a flashback, as if it's a traumatic memory they can't escape!
Me, with PTSD: *This is what I've been training for*
I can't say if it's a good or bad thing I laughed at this 🤔

Mark: “ everyone watching this better shut your lights off”
Me outside: “ let shut off the sun real quick.”
Then your not seeing much of anything either way bud so tis irrelevant 👍😂😂😂
Hey sun can you shut down and take a 40 minute break im trying to watch markiplier
And this children, was how night was invented
It's 6pm here I guess I could wait a few more hours 😂
i would turn off my lights if it wasn't for the pain caused by my kidney stones when doing any movements
Mark: *aggressively telling a door to stop being you*
That gives me life
4:24 Finally! Someone acknowledges the way Mark says room.
For people confused about him playing this already, he played the DEMO version of this on 3 Scary Games #44.
Yeah it looked familiar
THAT'S where I know this from. Thank you.
!!!!! THANK YOU THE DEJA VU WAS KILLING ME
As soon as he walked into the nursery, my jaw fell.
I remembered the name.
Markiplier: "So this game is called Locked Up"
RUclips, fingers on their ears _"WHAT? YOU MEAN 'LAYERS OF FEAR'?"_
Also RUclips: I think he said it’s five night at Freddys
Man, they think every horror game is five nights at freddy's. I don't think their system for identifying games works properly
You mean "P.T." ;]
One portion of the game was Layer of Fears tho, i think. And there's a cameo of the guy from the Wrong Floor
I went and I watched his Layers of Fear playthrough because I thought this was a continuation lol.
lol honestly, I would have never remembered the video about find yourself, but that flashback brought it all back. That was unironically a very good job on lixians part.
as an og, hearing the presentable liberty reference brought back so many memories

Well if you're not gonna mean it, then don't say it Mark. It gives the monsters and demons mixed signals.
Yea

"This needs an epilepsy warning."
We have one. His name is Lixian! He's a good boy.
Actually, grateful with the warning.
And it was nice to have multiple throughout the video instead of just one at the beginning
@@chickenalpaca0332 I didn't watch the video because I didn't want to risk, but if there are more warnings before those moments, do you think I could watch it?
@@eyremurasaki6306 possibly but just in case make someone aware so they can deal with it accordingly if something happens!
I’ve had like 7 seizures before over the course of many years and I’m on meds u think I could watch dis?
At least Mark has the common courtesy to say "hi" to every person or monster even though they never respond. Such a gentleman.
*Nightmare Fredbear flashbacks*
Mark: "There's nothing but a black screen, what's that in the reflection of the screen!" Me: *sees my face full of chips*
Mark arguing with the little girls voice saying leave it alone was so good
Mark: Anyone else wanna come and say hi?
*rusting in the distance*
Mark: No that wasn't an invitation to do so
I know you meant rustling, but rusting sounds funnier lol
I started watching this at 1am so my lights were out and yes it was scaring me

Nah he tweakin
Holy shit u mad lad
That sounds like the worst combo, omg. I would die
totally LOL-ing at the fact that mark doesn't remember that the last place he saw these assets was literally just the demo for this very game.
Read my name.
Until the footnote came up, all I kept thinking was, I recognize these rooms, why do I remember these rooms!!!!!! Ohhhhhh... That's why.
@@Dhaber323 for me it was the title screen
He's played tons of game demos and short games, it makes sense he doesn't remember each and every one of them.
"is that a leaf?" ignoring the dozens of footsteps
The German part in the game that said "Jeden das seine" on the wall means " To each their own", it is somewhat of a meaning of "you do what you want", you think whatever or do what you think is best for you. if anyone is questioning it^^
Nothing will top the jokes Mark makes when he's playing horror games.

Lights in the enclosure turn off
Me: great comedic timing Mark! That's all, comedic timing, right?
This man has slowly helped me over the years to become immune to fear if you were alone in the woods at night just laugh, really fucking loudly, and then you were the scariest thing in there
"LEAVE ME ALONE!"
(Mark) "YOU LEAVE ME ALONE!"
Mark would make a great dad.
Yes
yep
mhm
I refuse to believe Lix didn’t laugh a little when typing “Ruum”.

Ruum
Always been curious, is that his Ohio accent, or is he just weird?
@@felixmalcherek2919 I like to think that he is just weird
Him yelling YOU LEAVE ME ALONE back at the girl made me laugh
No other horror game youtuber can top mark, his reactions and joking remarks about anything that scares him just makes it funny instead of scary
“I remember these assets from another game.”
- has literally played this game before
Looks alot like PT to me. But altered
It’s so cool to see demos of games from 3 scary games that get finished and end up getting their own video :)
It's in the same engine as a lot of popular games, like house flipper and stuff
i can't avoid the large window by me with the sun shining through xD
yess.. the demo of this game he's played before

GOD DAMNIT! Just before 4:30 you said something like "Everyone at home should be watching this with the lights off!", and my lights TURNED OFF! They're automatic and I wasn't really moving, but the timing was PERFECT >.
The sequence where you have to walk like 50 times up and down (14:00) from some trigger is like more horrifying than the gameplay itself.
30:08 “I shit my pants off and the drivers dead.” That’s what the ghost said, and there is nothing you can do to change my mind.

Read my name..........
Mark's gonna see a pentagram and be like, "holy shit!... those candles are fire hazards, I should put those out"
"its my birthday!!"
i really like this game cause it seems that it explores the Horror genre in a more realistic way, as in reliving and being haunted by past traumas (the way I see it) instead of literal spirits haunting a person.
Mark: "What's that in the reflection of your monitor?"
Me watching him on a tv: yay i'm safe...
I don’t have epilepsy or anything like that but I really appreciate Mark putting the warning at the beginning of the video for anyone who needs it
I like it too. It shows thay he genuinly cares for his viewers' health
And through out it too
Yeah and all the warnings right before the flashing happens! It really shows he cares!
