This comment is more legit than you think. I played PT, Resident Evil 7 and even the newest Silent Hill 2 but when you grow up games just aren't scary anymore. As a kid though, Resident Evil 2 and Silent Hill 2 on my playstation scared the ever loving heck outta me
The effect this short teaser of a game had/has on independent horror games even 10 years later is nothing short of incredible Imagine how much a full game would influence the industry
I think it's easy to say this, but i feel like part of its influence was in the fact that it was a short teaser and that it sort of ran out of places to go convincingly.
@@Tom_Lube Could've been. But in this case, it's actually internal conflict within the company with their cash cow creative, Hideo Kojima. He was done so dirty he and his team outright left and started their own company. Good riddance to a toxic Japanese company with abusive control issues.
@@Tom_Lube can you elaborate on what you mean by running out of places to go convincingly? If the gameplay is what the actual game was going to be like, wouldn’t the final product create an even bigger influence. FNAF was a finished game and it is still inspiring new indie games An argument could be made that Visage took the PT style and gameplay and finished it without it being a silent hill game
@@jackalnut3034 yeah i think its somewhat accepted that Visage is the spiritual successor to PT. it has its issues, mainly being the inventory and controls, but to me its the scariest game ive ever played and nothing else comes close. feel like i have PTSD from it sometimes lol
LOOK BEHIND YOU. I SAID, LOOK BEHIND YOU. is still one of if not my favourite line in horror gaming history, everything from the way the actor delivers it, to the timing of its delivery, is just so perfectly executed. Pure goosebumps. I'm still sad about P.T. to this very day.
YES!!! I have this exact same sentiment in regards to the paper bag; the only me is me, are you sure that the only you is you? It gives me the same chills as SH3's "They look like monsters to you?", the way it makes you question the reality you're being presented in an already strange circumstance
It doesn't feel like that long ago, does it? I remember thinking that Silent Hill would never make a return after P.T. was cancelled, but with the release of the Silent Hill 2 Remake, I couldn't be happier to be proven wrong!
I'm never giving up hope. Apparently this game is 85% done, according to Kojima. A near complete Silent Hills is sitting somewhere in Konami HQ. If no one ends up finishing it, the least we can wish for is for an employee to dump the unfinished game onto the internet. This game is too legendary for it to be forever abandoned. It must see the light of day, one way or another.
You really believe its 85% done when he couldnt even finish the game he was supposed to be working on? lmao its a fuckin walking simulator meant to piss in konamis face, it was never gonna be a full game.
The fact this game never happened still saddens me as a Silent Hill fan. Junji Ito designing the monsters, Norman Reedus' subtle yet effective acting, Kojima and Del Toro TOGETHER on a narrative? That would've been a generation defining piece of media.
Such a perfect depiction of how money and greed can disgustingly and singlehandedly stand against and disrupt creativity and potential masterpieces. Not to mention how the story of Kojima is a great example of perseverence and raising the middle finger at the face of oppressors. Such a well-made video with impeccable delivery, Blinky
Ticks me off that the mobile and pachinko machines actually worked in helping them to make some money. Make money off gambling addicts. They tried to use the same tactics in MG survive and luckily failed.
How dare you insert a faux buffer like that. Here i am, listening and folding laundry, audio stops, outta my peripheral i just see Lisa, and my heart stops for a beat 😭😭😭 so mean
I feel like how blown away we were with PT's approach to horror and elaborate mechanics, is the closest we can get to the feeling people had during the original release of the first Silent Hill games. While the remake of SH2 is very good, it is just that. A remake. PT was probably the only shot we had at a new Silent Hill game that would actually come close to the originals.
I can tell you that I was so freaked out by the camera angles that I noped out and got an ex to play it for me whilst I watched… can’t guarantee that I could handle it better nowadays, mind 🙃
Seriously I didn’t even know the mechanics were that in depth. Someone has to pick up on this and make a more interactive horror game maybe even take away the pause screen and inventory screen so you cant escape the horror 😂
The amount of hours I spent going down the rabbit hole with PT is tremendous. I noticed Kojima put an asset from PT (the apartment complex inside the one Knot City) into Death Stranding. That wasn't done by mistake, especially when it went against the futuristic architecture of the world affected by Timefall. I'm definitely interested in seeing what you create next!
Omg now I need to go find that easter egg. Also, very ballsy of Kojima and team. Konami might try to legally skin them alive for that stunt (I hope they leave them alone if they still want their precious rep not tarnished any further). Thanks for highlighting.
That fake buffer at 18:36 is proof I never would have been able to play the game anyway. Nearly shit myself. Exited out of it so fast. Literally said "fuck off" 😂🤣
I remember an odd glitch I had. I had installed a 3.5 drive adapter for my ps4 and transferred over all my games. During the process some stuff got corrupted. I loaded up p.t for a new run through and the game froze on the intro in the starting room. With Lisa just staring at me through the door. It was easily the most terrifying thing I’ve witnessed in this game. Not to mention how random the scares are. Sometimes she appears outside. It’s just odd. A great disservice that this game never got the full release it so deserved
I forgot how gruesome and just.. gross the death scene is from Lisa. The heavy droning music that happens when she's crushing your neck that stops when she breaks it is harrowing, and it stops to reveal that you didn't even die from having your neck broke, just paralyzed with Lisa standing over you out of your view. Once again, Silent Hill delivering with the psychological dread, good LORD
Its hard to believe this is your first video, considering the detail of research and analysis you've put into this. Konami didn't just fumble the ball, they dropped it onto the golden goose and shat all over the remnants- and I do hope Karma continues to bite them in the everything. I will die mad at the potential the full game could have been- for crying out loud it had Del Toro AND Junji Ito as part of the creative team! Kojima deserved so much better than what Konami did to him and Team Silent- but I'm glad he got to start anew and continue creating. The last part of the video fills me with hope I didn't think I still possessed....and thanks for the mini cardiac at 18:43. All the best to the future videos to come!
@@scapeagoat2520 if they listening to fans then they should bring kojima and toro and ito-san back for unfinished game 😅... we don't need new silent hill games.. we need kojima's silent hills ffs
I’m one of the lucky few that still has it downloaded haha we played it not that long ago and to see the quality of graphics not being that different now in games to what P.T. had back then is wild.
The fact Del Toro to this day is STILL angry as hell about PT/Silent Hills being cancelled and removed as massively as it was shows how incredibly passionate about the idea that he was Leave it to Konami to choose quick & easy to make money grabbers over actual love for whats being made
Nice video. I had to evacuate my apartment due to a massive wildfire last year, and I had my dog, important paperwork, and the PS4 I bought off of Ebay that has P.T. on it. XD
17:24 It's especially eerie since to this day, no one knows who the actor is. Does he know about the P.T. phenomenon? Is he ever going to step forward? I've read comments trying to figure out his accent, but none of the names that have been brought up have been exact matches, in my opinion at least. He sounds so different from one line to the next. His delivery in the initial news report vs "you got fired so you drowned your sorrows in booze" vs "dad was such a drag" really shows his range.
Considering he worked on the teaser I imagine he was told the full game was getting cancelled. Also the accent is just a standard American accent with a radio accent a lot of radio MC's adopt
There was a video called “ PT Hidden Meaning” that highly satisfied my thoughts on what could of have been and with real life lore mixed in really explaining it well.
Wait, that stop and video unavailable at 18:40 just when the jumpscare happens was intentional? Man... I hate jumpscares, but I've gotta give it to you, that was really good. That trascends jumpscares and turns it into a proper scare, forcing the viewer to deal and proccess Lisa's face and what's happening. Honestly, well pulled. I enjoyed the video... but now I'm sad Silent Hills was killed. I want to jump to a different timeline where it was made 😢
That would require Kojima and team to stay with an awfully abusive company that even banned them from collecting their own award at the Video Game Awards for the very last Metal Gear game he helmed. I'm as bummed about them not finishing it, but I'd rather they leave for their mental and creative health. Toxic companies and CEOs are the bane of creative projects. Just look at the weird decisions made for the sequels after SH2. It got progressively worse.
Indeed. As I just came of a pause, I thought my video was actually buffering, as it tends to do that sometimes, after a video has been on pause for awhile. Got a bit of a chill, when it stuck on that face. Didn't help either that I'm watching this in the dark.
You have to be kidding me bro 😂🤣 at 18:48 right when Lisa popped on the screen, the screen froze with the buffering icon rolling. Quite a weeeird coincidence if you ask me. Perhaps I should have looked behind me
ok i know this is kinda hard to believe but when i was like 12 or smth my pc crashed when i played an audio on the minecraft wiki page on herobrine and i think i don't have to say i almost shat my pants lol
@@DonkeyFilmsNah, it's all the ceo's and shareholders. The developers aren't the problem (most of the time), but big honchos, thinking they know everything.
@@DonkeyFilmsNo tf they don't. I don't really care what Ubisoft is doing. Konami killed what would almost certainly have been one of the greatest horror games ever. They do not "get a pass" for that just because someone else is being dumb.
@@JF-vz1ju I mean Ubisoft is active trying ruin gaming for everyone, meanwhile Konami is barely doing anything. I rather a game company do nothing than ruined gaming for everyone
It is truly mind numbing to think of how this project got axed. PT gave me PT SD lmao, that’s how crazy this one off demo really was. In a saturated genre like horror games, it truly stood out for the precision with which it fucks your mind. An absolute crying shame that this won’t ever see the light of day.
YES the amount of hallways and lisa i kept dreaming of afterwards! Though i mainly dreamt of the main foyer and upstairs terrace the most. Was not good for my sleep health let me tell you! 😅
18:42 ooooooooh you totally got me there 😂 I thought I lost my connection, went to check, when I came back said “The video was removed” and I was just so so so confused!! Well played hahahaha
You have no idea how big of a smile I had when you revealed that there was "ATAMI" hidden (with its implications) in the trailer of O.D. Awesome video thank you.
The only complaint I have is that you only have one video and I need more! Love the amount of effort and research that went into this. Subbing and can't wait to see more!
This was a beautiful video. Thank you for taking the time to make it and explain everything that happened and all between Kojima and Konami. I knew some of it but I didn't know it went to this extent! Looking forward to seeing more videos like this from you!
Another channel by the name of TheGrateDebate released a video titled “P.T.’s Hidden Meaning”. It actually goes into a bit of depth similar to this one, but the video is pretty speculative. It implies that not only was Kojima being pushed out of Konami (and explores those reasons why in depth), but that the Playable Teaser for was Kojima’s biggest “screw you” to the executives at Konami. Again, a lot of the theories posed in the video are speculative and hypothetical, but it actually makes sense when you consider how much information has surfaced about Konami ever since Kojima’s departure.
So happy SH2R was a success we needed a win in the community. PT was terrifying. I remember downloading it and having no idea what it was but I was enamored. Me and my sister were so lost. Then my friend told me it was a SH game and I lost it when I heard that.
I have to be frank, I have short span attention and this is the first video that grasp my attention from the beginning until the end. A well done video!
was so ready to tuck into bed to binge all your vids after subscribing only to see it’s your very first vid!! 😭🥺 absolutely insane analysis vid, dude! 🩵 hope more success comes your way, we eagerly await more!!
I have no idea why they didn't knock this out together. This would've been absolutely legendary. In fact, the demo itself is legendary. I can't imagine how amazing a full game would've been.
10 years... hoooo boy... Back when PT released, I had just graduated college and was still trying to figure out what to do with my life. 10 years later I'm a resident doctor embarking on his last year of residency. 10 years sure did fly by.
this game never even came out and it still managed to completely change the way the Horror genre would be made and consumed ever since. that's nothing short of miraculous
After the great remake of Silent Hill 2 by bloober, i think it's safe to say that we will get alot more. May it be completely new games and stories or more remakes. Silent Hill 1 and 3 are still out there.
Banger debut! I was expecting a history of PT, but got a video about how even admidst corporate BS, creative, passionate people will still be there to create things out of pure love for the art.
I am still livid that I will never see a Silent Hill game directed by Kojima becasue bro can put the most fucked up stuff inside of it and I'd be there for the ride. In the other hand, PT staying the way it is now created a whole new sub-genre of horror itself, which I am happy about and that probably we wouldn' have gotten if it became real. But, still, my hands itch at the thought of what this could have been.
19:34 this entire cut messed with me, I wasn’t paying very much attention to the video and was listening to it and then I came back to it and saw that video had been removed by user but then it started again all weird. Yeah creepy
This video truly moved me to tears. I have so much admiration for Kojima and his work-he’s such an inspiration. His passion and dedication to everything he does are remarkable. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video.
So happy this popped up in my recommended. Not only to watch this lengthy video where I was entertained the whole time, but to realize this is your FIRST video?! Insane. Great job and I’m excited for your future videos!
Fantastic video! I just recently became a fan of the SH franchise after playing the SH2 remake which I absolutely adored. What Konami has done to this franchise and all of their others that aren't mobile games or gamblig is truly abhorrent and greedy. I hope we'll eventually be able to play the older games on modern consoles, but that won't be any time soon. Let's pray they don't cancel these next 2 upcoming Silent Hill games
Bro, how is this the only video on your channel? 💀 It's so well paced and researched and sourced...pacing is also excellent. I figured you were a seasoned video essayist? I'm so confused, but I'm subscribing, damn.
What an amazing debut video. I'm not one to share RUclips videos on other platforms, but I had to share this one. It was so well put together. There were moments that scared me, moments that pissed me off and moments that made me tear up. I'm blown away by the quality and look forward to anything this channel puts out. Well done.
I came from the future to say Silent Hill 2 Remake was a great game and end up being an amazing horror game, one of the best that released in the last decade. I wish Konami see this as an opportunity to push the series in this way.
the fact this is your first video is mind blowing. i hope you get more love on this, you deserve it! incredible flow of video, your voice and cadence are great, the editing is really good (you got me with the shit at 18:45ish), i'm super impressed! wouldn't have thought this was your first at all. great video and immediately subbed!
I went straight to your channel to binge more videos. As someone who is too scared to play horror games but loves the lore both within and outside the game, this was a masterpiece. Can t wait for more content, amazing stuff!
Thank you so much for this video. As someone who loved the P.T., I never got the true background on what happened with it; just that it was cancelled and disappeared. I truly appreciate your thoroughness in this! Love from NL!
I was stoked to binge watch the rest of your channel and was shocked to see this was your first video! Awesome job, sincerely. Can’t wait to catch your next one!
Went to go watch more of your videos cause this one was awesome... THIS IS YOUR FIRST AND ONLY VIDEO??? Great debut man. Would love to see you make a video on your thoughts about the SH2 remake!
Considering I'm from Chile, therefore, international viewer whose content may be limited, you pretty much got me with the glitch of "video removed". Didn't even register it was in english when my warning should have been shown in spanish. Nice move! And great video!! Lots to learn, lots to curse, lots to be excited about. And now I have the perfect gameplay video recc to scare the sheet out of my friends in Halloween!! P.T. will live forever.
I just cant believe the channel is not even 2k subscribers! With all the efforts heart and analysis that you’ve poured to the video.. you deserved so much more! Watching from the first until the end, so thoughtful!
what an absolute BANGER of a first video. absolutely knocked the editing and writingout of the park man. was trying to sew while listening but I kept getting pulled back in. seriously, props for keeping over 100k viewers glued for an hour! i definitely would've watched longer, looking forward to more awesome vids bro. (would love to know what you think of SH2 remake now that it's out!)
Amazing first video! I was so happy for Kojima Productions and the man himself to come back after Konami did him so dirty. I know a lot of people didn’t “get” Death Stranding but it is a fantastic experience and just drips with this man’s passion and care for his craft.
I don’t even play horror videogames and yet, the OD part gave me genuine CHILLS. I might try these upcoming titles (I’m already planning on buying Silent Hill 2 Remake to get over my childhood trauma with the original). Great video! Also, that fake buffering caught me off guard 💀
Really great video, I can scarcely believe this is your first. I've recently been really into watching video game analysis, especially horror survival ones. And I love how you include history too as someone who's not really in the gaming world, it's nice to know. Looking forward to your future videos!
This was like a highly engaging movie with a damn shocking twist OMFG I DID NOT EXPECT THAT ENDING YOU JUST MADE MY DAY. 😭Honestly did not expect to sit through all of it and enjoy it as much as I did. You really have a talent for storytelling yourself and just earned a new sub. Wish you the best of luck!
banger content. i like how you explaining things, organized and actually telling me why PT was that great (i do watch the walkthrough when it got released but never really know anything behind it and the details). thank you, will wait for your next video!
You are going to blow up. Don’t know if everything before this is unlisted but if this is your very first video. You are an absolute natural. The way you broke everything down and explained was great. I literally did not even Junji Ito was going to be part of Silent Hills😂 hearing that made me mad ALL over again and so did hearing that Konami literally demoted their top creator and fired him then tried to blacklist for a fucking mobile game with micro transactions JUST TO COME RIGHT BACK TO MAKING SILENT HILL .(not to mention they did not want to sell the IP to try and milk it) Your extensive research paid off bro this video going to have a million soon and is going to make people understand why Konami deserves less .
Dude. I was in my dark-ass silent kitchen in the middle of the night trying to quietly get a drink when I reached 18:41 and it gave me THE MOST unsettling feeling. Hahaha you really got me. Well done!
For a first video this is incredible! Your delivery and presentation is beautiful. And your delivery on OD literally gave me goosebumps. I look forward to what may come next from you
THEY HAD DEL TORO. THEY HAD JUNJI ITO. THEY HAD HIDEO KOJIMA. THIS WOULD'VE BEEN A MASTERPIECE. FUCK.
See i never knew junji ito was involved. The fact they had 3 horror masters from 3 different mediums is insane to me.
For mobile gaming because... profit.
Neyt comrade. What if instead: Snake but zombies with breakable fences!
@@HazyJ28that's the true phantom pain right there 😔

it was just a reused asset that was all, he has said this already

I remember an odd glitch I had. I had installed a 3.5 drive adapter for my ps4 and transferred over all my games. During the process some stuff got corrupted. I loaded up p.t for a new run through and the game froze on the intro in the starting room. With Lisa just staring at me through the door.

@@RotsWells nah we need a remake of sh1 to follow the success of 2
@@RotsWells Kojima is long gone from Konami, he’s not going to return for anything that isn’t his creative vision
It's been 10 years since PT, I never got to play it and my life has gone nowhere since then. 10/10 Kojima
I’m one of the lucky few that still has it downloaded haha we played it not that long ago and to see the quality of graphics not being that different now in games to what P.T. had back then is wild.
The fact Del Toro to this day is STILL angry as hell about PT/Silent Hills being cancelled and removed as massively as it was shows how incredibly passionate about the idea that he was
Leave it to Konami to choose quick & easy to make money grabbers over actual love for whats being made
They got activists behind the scenes sabotaging things. Im convinced at this point.
Nice video. I had to evacuate my apartment due to a massive wildfire last year, and I had my dog, important paperwork, and the PS4 I bought off of Ebay that has P.T. on it. XD
Based
17:24 It's especially eerie since to this day, no one knows who the actor is. Does he know about the P.T. phenomenon? Is he ever going to step forward? I've read comments trying to figure out his accent, but none of the names that have been brought up have been exact matches, in my opinion at least. He sounds so different from one line to the next. His delivery in the initial news report vs "you got fired so you drowned your sorrows in booze" vs "dad was such a drag" really shows his range.
Considering he worked on the teaser I imagine he was told the full game was getting cancelled. Also the accent is just a standard American accent with a radio accent a lot of radio MC's adopt
I am very curious about the full story of Silent Hills.
But sadly I will never know.
you and many others. maybe some day we'll get something.
There was a video called “ PT Hidden Meaning” that highly satisfied my thoughts on what could of have been and with real life lore mixed in really explaining it well.
The hole that was here, but was gone, it’s back. It’s left in all the fans hearts.
mate, its unfair that this is your only video, you're great at story telling
The ‘scarecrow’ crash fakeout love it
Gotcha!
This game is purely fictitious. It cannot harm you in any way. 18:56
I kept checking my app and then realized the timer was still running.
Wait, that stop and video unavailable at 18:40 just when the jumpscare happens was intentional? Man... I hate jumpscares, but I've gotta give it to you, that was really good. That trascends jumpscares and turns it into a proper scare, forcing the viewer to deal and proccess Lisa's face and what's happening. Honestly, well pulled.
I enjoyed the video... but now I'm sad Silent Hills was killed. I want to jump to a different timeline where it was made 😢
That would require Kojima and team to stay with an awfully abusive company that even banned them from collecting their own award at the Video Game Awards for the very last Metal Gear game he helmed. I'm as bummed about them not finishing it, but I'd rather they leave for their mental and creative health.
Toxic companies and CEOs are the bane of creative projects. Just look at the weird decisions made for the sequels after SH2. It got progressively worse.
Indeed. As I just came of a pause, I thought my video was actually buffering, as it tends to do that sometimes, after a video has been on pause for awhile. Got a bit of a chill, when it stuck on that face. Didn't help either that I'm watching this in the dark.
You have to be kidding me bro 😂🤣 at 18:48 right when Lisa popped on the screen, the screen froze with the buffering icon rolling. Quite a weeeird coincidence if you ask me. Perhaps I should have looked behind me
ok i know this is kinda hard to believe but when i was like 12 or smth my pc crashed when i played an audio on the minecraft wiki page on herobrine and i think i don't have to say i almost shat my pants lol
Try going back to that part.
Remember the fight with Psycho Mantis?
Definitely intentional
SAME WTF I'm dead 😭
Happened to me just now too 😂
all my homies hate konami
At first I was like wtf, but then I remembered it’s 2024 and not 2000
They get a pass now, the true enemy is Ubisoft
@@DonkeyFilmsNah, it's all the ceo's and shareholders. The developers aren't the problem (most of the time), but big honchos, thinking they know everything.
@@DonkeyFilmsNo tf they don't. I don't really care what Ubisoft is doing. Konami killed what would almost certainly have been one of the greatest horror games ever. They do not "get a pass" for that just because someone else is being dumb.
@@JF-vz1ju I mean Ubisoft is active trying ruin gaming for everyone, meanwhile Konami is barely doing anything. I rather a game company do nothing than ruined gaming for everyone
It is truly mind numbing to think of how this project got axed. PT gave me PT SD lmao, that’s how crazy this one off demo really was. In a saturated genre like horror games, it truly stood out for the precision with which it fucks your mind. An absolute crying shame that this won’t ever see the light of day.
YES the amount of hallways and lisa i kept dreaming of afterwards!
Though i mainly dreamt of the main foyer and upstairs terrace the most. Was not good for my sleep health let me tell you! 😅
I think the Silent Hill Pachinko machine was absolutely worth the sacrifice.
A truly groundbreaking horror experience.
18:30 BRO WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT!?! I literally started tripping wtf
18:46 what a stroke of editing GENIUS.
Have you seriously not see a fake buffer in a video before? Hacks that overproduce their videos like Nexpo do it all the time
@@C_Ketsukane I didn't like it, I thought my internet had failed again. :/
18:42 ooooooooh you totally got me there 😂 I thought I lost my connection, went to check, when I came back said “The video was removed” and I was just so so so confused!! Well played hahahaha
lol same
You have no idea how big of a smile I had when you revealed that there was "ATAMI" hidden (with its implications) in the trailer of O.D. Awesome video thank you.
@@Spaghestti:')
17:35 I SWEAR Kojima loves his cryptic radio messages . Same shit he did in the MGS2 final acts.
The only complaint I have is that you only have one video and I need more! Love the amount of effort and research that went into this. Subbing and can't wait to see more!
This really needs to blow up. Great job man.
This was a beautiful video. Thank you for taking the time to make it and explain everything that happened and all between Kojima and Konami. I knew some of it but I didn't know it went to this extent! Looking forward to seeing more videos like this from you!
Another channel by the name of TheGrateDebate released a video titled “P.T.’s Hidden Meaning”. It actually goes into a bit of depth similar to this one, but the video is pretty speculative. It implies that not only was Kojima being pushed out of Konami (and explores those reasons why in depth), but that the Playable Teaser for was Kojima’s biggest “screw you” to the executives at Konami. Again, a lot of the theories posed in the video are speculative and hypothetical, but it actually makes sense when you consider how much information has surfaced about Konami ever since Kojima’s departure.
RUclipsrs with a passion to create will transcend any means of the algorithm possible. A banger breakout video like this needs to be celebrated, man.
So happy SH2R was a success we needed a win in the community. PT was terrifying. I remember downloading it and having no idea what it was but I was enamored. Me and my sister were so lost. Then my friend told me it was a SH game and I lost it when I heard that.
The disclaimer made in Silent Hill style with PT footage is *chef kiss
@@noname768397 Thank you! I tried to get it to look as one-to-one with the original as possible
i still talk abt P.T to this day! it really was the best game that never happened. it’s destined to remain a mystery and i kinda love it that way
Bro i can't bro - if OD is a secret silent hill game I'm going to freak the frick out
I have to be frank, I have short span attention and this is the first video that grasp my attention from the beginning until the end. A well done video!
was so ready to tuck into bed to binge all your vids after subscribing only to see it’s your very first vid!! 😭🥺 absolutely insane analysis vid, dude! 🩵 hope more success comes your way, we eagerly await more!!
Yes, this. Went to the channel to see what else was there and was gobsmacked to see this was the very first one!
I have no idea why they didn't knock this out together. This would've been absolutely legendary. In fact, the demo itself is legendary. I can't imagine how amazing a full game would've been.
10 years... hoooo boy...
Back when PT released, I had just graduated college and was still trying to figure out what to do with my life.
10 years later I'm a resident doctor embarking on his last year of residency.
10 years sure did fly by.
congrats!!
this game never even came out and it still managed to completely change the way the Horror genre would be made and consumed ever since.
that's nothing short of miraculous
After the great remake of Silent Hill 2 by bloober, i think it's safe to say that we will get alot more.
May it be completely new games and stories or more remakes. Silent Hill 1 and 3 are still out there.
Banger debut! I was expecting a history of PT, but got a video about how even admidst corporate BS, creative, passionate people will still be there to create things out of pure love for the art.
I am still livid that I will never see a Silent Hill game directed by Kojima becasue bro can put the most fucked up stuff inside of it and I'd be there for the ride. In the other hand, PT staying the way it is now created a whole new sub-genre of horror itself, which I am happy about and that probably we wouldn' have gotten if it became real. But, still, my hands itch at the thought of what this could have been.
19:34 this entire cut messed with me, I wasn’t paying very much attention to the video and was listening to it and then I came back to it and saw that video had been removed by user but then it started again all weird. Yeah creepy
Kojima making his own Metal Gear and Silent Hill..
Beautiful
This video truly moved me to tears. I have so much admiration for Kojima and his work-he’s such an inspiration. His passion and dedication to everything he does are remarkable. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video.
I'm optimistic and excited to see this channel grow as his video library expands and the already great quality evolves.
Please, keep doing what you're doing. This was one of the best video game documentaries I've ever seen on RUclips, and I've seen A LOT.
So happy this popped up in my recommended. Not only to watch this lengthy video where I was entertained the whole time, but to realize this is your FIRST video?! Insane. Great job and I’m excited for your future videos!
@@notoldmanjenkins1583 Thank you so much!! I'm currently in early pre-production on the next video, please look forward to it ♡
Fantastic video! I just recently became a fan of the SH franchise after playing the SH2 remake which I absolutely adored. What Konami has done to this franchise and all of their others that aren't mobile games or gamblig is truly abhorrent and greedy. I hope we'll eventually be able to play the older games on modern consoles, but that won't be any time soon. Let's pray they don't cancel these next 2 upcoming Silent Hill games
Excellent first video! I had no clue about the P.T.'s studio name significance, nor about the "ATAMI" hidden message in the OD trailer.
Bro, how is this the only video on your channel? 💀 It's so well paced and researched and sourced...pacing is also excellent. I figured you were a seasoned video essayist? I'm so confused, but I'm subscribing, damn.
What an amazing debut video. I'm not one to share RUclips videos on other platforms, but I had to share this one. It was so well put together. There were moments that scared me, moments that pissed me off and moments that made me tear up. I'm blown away by the quality and look forward to anything this channel puts out. Well done.
I came from the future to say Silent Hill 2 Remake was a great game and end up being an amazing horror game, one of the best that released in the last decade. I wish Konami see this as an opportunity to push the series in this way.
the fact this is your first video is mind blowing. i hope you get more love on this, you deserve it! incredible flow of video, your voice and cadence are great, the editing is really good (you got me with the shit at 18:45ish), i'm super impressed! wouldn't have thought this was your first at all. great video and immediately subbed!
This is extremely impressive for a first vid/essay hope you have all the success you deserve subscribed
I went straight to your channel to binge more videos. As someone who is too scared to play horror games but loves the lore both within and outside the game, this was a masterpiece. Can t wait for more content, amazing stuff!
for a while I thought PT stood for Post Traumatic
It certainly could haha
Loving the remake as someone whom stayed up all night playing sh2 in high school with friends and havent stopped thinking about that town ever since
Honestly I'm really surprised you have so few subscribers because this in-depth video was really good. Definitely earned a sub
The fact this is your first video is amazing, this video is a work of art
Thank you so much for this video. As someone who loved the P.T., I never got the true background on what happened with it; just that it was cancelled and disappeared. I truly appreciate your thoroughness in this! Love from NL!
dude the reveal at the end about the OD trailer was insane. I was already hype for that game but now that I know this I'm even more excited
I was stoked to binge watch the rest of your channel and was shocked to see this was your first video! Awesome job, sincerely. Can’t wait to catch your next one!
Went to go watch more of your videos cause this one was awesome... THIS IS YOUR FIRST AND ONLY VIDEO??? Great debut man. Would love to see you make a video on your thoughts about the SH2 remake!
Fantastic work. Loved the deep dive into the decade of lore following PT's release. Hope to see more great work in the future!
Considering I'm from Chile, therefore, international viewer whose content may be limited, you pretty much got me with the glitch of "video removed". Didn't even register it was in english when my warning should have been shown in spanish. Nice move!
And great video!! Lots to learn, lots to curse, lots to be excited about. And now I have the perfect gameplay video recc to scare the sheet out of my friends in Halloween!!
P.T. will live forever.
In an alternate universe, Silent Hills released and is one of the greatest horror games of all time
18:38 I legit thought it was my wifi, and began crashing out. You got me
This was your first video?! It's amazing!! Look forward to seeing more videos this was a fantastic watch!
47:03 made me laugh way too hard. What a epic debut for your channel man. Congrats on a solid production!
Ok, you've just gained a new sub. Superb first video.
I just cant believe the channel is not even 2k subscribers! With all the efforts heart and analysis that you’ve poured to the video.. you deserved so much more! Watching from the first until the end, so thoughtful!
what an absolute BANGER of a first video. absolutely knocked the editing and writingout of the park man. was trying to sew while listening but I kept getting pulled back in. seriously, props for keeping over 100k viewers glued for an hour! i definitely would've watched longer, looking forward to more awesome vids bro. (would love to know what you think of SH2 remake now that it's out!)
Amazing first video! I was so happy for Kojima Productions and the man himself to come back after Konami did him so dirty. I know a lot of people didn’t “get” Death Stranding but it is a fantastic experience and just drips with this man’s passion and care for his craft.
wow the editing on this was insane! great video man :) you should be proud!!
Thank you! I hadn't used Adobe Premiere since highschool (roughly 10 years ago) but I think I'm happy with the end result :)
@@BlinkyRUclipsit came out great! it’s very apparent you put a lot of hard work into this, the production is awesome ^_^
18:00 bro that editing was so good, i was like "wow that timing for an ad is crazy" 😂
This is a good video. I'm surprised this is the only one you have. I'll subscribe I'm curious what else you got.
I don’t even play horror videogames and yet, the OD part gave me genuine CHILLS. I might try these upcoming titles (I’m already planning on buying Silent Hill 2 Remake to get over my childhood trauma with the original). Great video!
Also, that fake buffering caught me off guard 💀
Dude how the hell is this your first video, absolutely fantastic.
Really great video, I can scarcely believe this is your first. I've recently been really into watching video game analysis, especially horror survival ones. And I love how you include history too as someone who's not really in the gaming world, it's nice to know. Looking forward to your future videos!
This was like a highly engaging movie with a damn shocking twist OMFG I DID NOT EXPECT THAT ENDING YOU JUST MADE MY DAY. 😭Honestly did not expect to sit through all of it and enjoy it as much as I did. You really have a talent for storytelling yourself and just earned a new sub. Wish you the best of luck!
banger content. i like how you explaining things, organized and actually telling me why PT was that great (i do watch the walkthrough when it got released but never really know anything behind it and the details). thank you, will wait for your next video!
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed!
You are going to blow up.
Don’t know if everything before this is unlisted but if this is your very first video. You are an absolute natural. The way you broke everything down and explained was great. I literally did not even Junji Ito was going to be part of Silent Hills😂 hearing that made me mad ALL over again and so did hearing that Konami literally demoted their top creator and fired him then tried to blacklist for a fucking mobile game with micro transactions JUST TO COME RIGHT BACK TO MAKING SILENT HILL .(not to mention they did not want to sell the IP to try and milk it) Your extensive research paid off bro this video going to have a million soon and is going to make people understand why Konami deserves less .
Dude. I was in my dark-ass silent kitchen in the middle of the night trying to quietly get a drink when I reached 18:41 and it gave me THE MOST unsettling feeling. Hahaha you really got me. Well done!
great video man, definitely noticed how hard u worked on this!
For a first video this is incredible! Your delivery and presentation is beautiful. And your delivery on OD literally gave me goosebumps. I look forward to what may come next from you
