The fact he went from "Markiplier in Until Dawn" to "Markiplier realizing that he's PLAYING Until Dawn" then "Chase realizing he's pretending to be Markiplier playing Until Dawn for a Real Time Fandub" The slow degradation of the fourth wall was actually a really cool idea
Saturno I felt the same way. The fourth wall getting destroyed was funny as Mike slowly began to peel back the fabric of his reality. But then the fourth wall just got straight up pulverized at the end and while realizing your in a game is fine ig. The whole knowing the future and having everything seem pointless kinda ruined the character for me. Or I am looking too much into people dubbing over video game cutscene and should probably go to bed
@Mizir-pq7jf to be fair they had VERY little to work with on Mike’s end. The decision at the very beginning to make him mikeiplier probably saved the whole dub since there’s so little to work with, for more than half the game he’s either alone or his only companion is the dog.
Saturno Mikepliers realization at the start was pretty great…. But once he began remarking how pointless everything was it just kinda ruined the rest of the story. Which sounds silly considering it is just a dub, but that’s just my opinion. Which is why In terms of humor I prefer the First Part because of the great improv. Whereas with the second part the only moment that made me laugh out loud was the bit about Mikepliers wife.
I love how these dubs begin with so little sense of plot until it reaches the halfway point where it starts to get so ridiculously convoluted, deep, dark and VERY meta
Top 3 quotes 3- "Oh my god! SHE'S NAKEY AND ITS COLD!" -Ashley 2- "I should've known that saying what that thing was would've made it leave... Just like when I called my wife a b¡tch and she left" -Mikeplier 1- "Seems like a super massive issue to put a black guy in this game and then not use him for anything" -Matt
@kawaiicake8038 basically the joke is that martial artist and actor Chuck Norris is so amazing he can do impossible things like swim through land (in comparison with Jesus walking on water).
And it's so good, because Holly is inverting the normal meaning of that phrase. She's asking if Josh/Scout is mentally and emotionally prepared to _wield_ that power, and the hubris it creates.
Holly's voice + Peter's face has me rolling. Ironically, I was more freaked out by the original character in the game and would scream in horror whenever he came on screen, much to my brother's amusement.
Floppy feet was caused by Penny’s “a computer… webkinz!” Moment which also caused the whole narrative to be about delving in his mind because of “what is that?” “It’s my mind” The GameCube 2 plot line also happened because of a throwaway comment. I love that they take by complete accident the WEIRDEST improvised statement to turn it into the focus of the dub, it’s just as glorious every time.
just wanted to mention this somewhat underrated moment at 1:22:15 Josh/Ryan: "what's your name?" Sam: "sam? _w h a t t h e f u c k_ " Red: "ᵈᵘⁿᵏᵃᶜᶜᶦⁿᵒ"
"Manslaughter sounds worse than murder; like I'm a butcher in some evil meat shop, and ground up a bunch of people to- (...)" - Gordon Freeman, Freeman's Mind
Okay but. Real talk? The lines, “Phil Spencer could walk on water. Chuck Norris could swim through land… But I… I could fly through death, bitch.” have NO FUCKING BUSINESS going as hard as they do.
No, like, meta jokes aside, Ryan's voice acting in this one is OUTSTANDING. That monologue he has towards the end with the vibes? Putting aside that it's about the reception of a RUclips video, the delivery is terrifying!
Mikeiplier losing his mind but still remembering to look out for his dog and repeatedly saying "hey doggy!!" with sincere enthusiasm is just. Great. Truly, the last thing we retain is our pack-bonding.
I had a dream that Mikeiplier won an Oscar and there was a massive speech about him surviving Rude Mountain, and I don't know how to feel about that being in my dreams.
DUDE the first time I saw this dub I had a dream the next night where I tracked down Mikeplier’s VA and discussed the cost of ascension with her. Something about the character gets into your head
The fucking "I'll shoot you" bit at 59:14 had me dying laughing. The fact Chase couldn't keep his own laughter in and that it actually makes sense within the bonkers narrative they stiched together just elevates it to legendary status.
Guys, it all became full circle. Chase and Ryan became self aware and the characters realized that they are the ones controlling them. They were the controller. Just like the Kinect.
1:04:33 Mike/Markiplier: *barely contained rage* I'm going to kill the next person I see, I swear to God. Wolf: Hello hi I'm so happy to see you Mark: *cute dog voice* Hey oh my god oh my god what's going on We all thought that dog was next for a second there, right?
If anyone was curious, Holly was referencing part 1 where Ryan said he was half ghost ("I'm actually half ghost, when you expect the vibes you kinda die.") and later he said he was a horseman. ("I'm a horseman, I know about horoscopes!") These quotes might be a little off, but you get the jist.
Everyone is understandably losing their minds at "are you ready to feel the wrath of a god, kid?" But for me what makes that part is Ryan's rapturous "oh my god, yes!" right after
i know right!!! ryan did such an amazing fucking job with josh’s increasingly unhinged behavior i was blown away by how his plot turned into this kid believing he could harness the powers of rude mountain like a god, and meanwhile his ‘therapist’ has godlike powers of his own as the therapist of the universe and they end up antagonizing each other over the stability of rude mountain josh is so far gone in that scene, laughing and laughing while dr hill tries to humble him, not even the threat of gods wrath can scare him anymore. hes fully succumbed to the chaotic vibes. ryan and holly both killed it in the therapy scenes holy shit
Emily and Matt's "arguments" are so great. Just needlessly manufacturing conflict out of literally nothing because they can tell the characters are supposed to be arguing.
Makes me wonder how Mike's line "this is the joke I'm gonna be going with the whole dub" can be interpreted in retrospect given the direction his character went here.
The truth is he has been observing Fourth Wall for the whole dub. After Josh Manipulates the vibes into distorting reality, the characters's sanity and beliefs, Josh (Ryan Mitchum) and Mike (Chase Young) speaking to each other by Voice actors names as the result of them destroyed the 4th wall. While Sam desperately trying to restore the story arc back. Chase is even aware that he (Mike) along with Sophie (Sam) can't die because they are given the plot armor by the game as a main characters.
I’d just like to say that Mike has the same character arc as Markipliar did in real life, going from stupid goof to fully accepting his own mortality and also being a better person because of it
The emotional arc of Sonic Adventure 2 was everyone fucking Eggman’s wife. Resident Evil 2 was about the feminization of Leon Kennedy and exploring the deep trauma of Club Penguin user FloppyFeet. In the Vibes of Rude Mountain we get a parody of Markiplier realizing he is a parody of the real Markiplier in a parody dub of Until Dawn and that everything and everyone around him is fake and that their actions don’t matter because there is a set path for them all. Effervescent.
Don't forget Sonic 06 which explores the love triangle between Sonic, Shadow and Memphis Tennessee. Meanwhile Eggman creates the greatest game of all time: Fortnite. Also Sonic Riders, where Sonic realises he's a little bitch.
@somethingsuperbland8829 I feel that way about pretty much every N64 and PS1 title. I played a lot of that stuff and I have NO nostalgia for that era of gaming lol. PC gaming is where all my good memories are tbh.
I think my favorite acting technique that shows up in these fandubs (among many excellent patterns) is that whenever someone doesn’t know what to say, they’ll either describe an aspect of their character’s appearance or describe what they’re doing. And, somehow, it is so funny every time. It’s stream-of-consciousness acting. Fantastic stuff
1:03:07 "I gotta say... real, real sad, what happened to ya. You wake up one day, you realise the world you know is... limited, and realise that you knowin' such means you can play with it, tug on the strings of it. You look at that world and you think yourself some sort of god, don't you, son? ...Are you ready to feel the wrath of a god, kid?" That was actually some seriously raw dialogue from Holly.
I want that in that tumblr posts of raw lines from ridiculous settings. Yknow the one with quotes like “then perish” from that Obama rp or “if the world chooses to be my enemy, I’ll fight just like I always have” from Shadow the Hedgehog.
YOU CHANGWD IT TO HER PREFERED NAME :D (Also i think there are rwo people in this voicw cast that came out as trans. One is scout and the other is jenny. Idk who jenny was can u tell me?)
i love the levels of meta understanding within the cast. dr hill of course knows all. ashley and chris think that they're both real people. jess, matt and emily understand that they're in a video game, and therefore need to use skill points and quick times to do things. sophie, chase and ryan understand that they are dubbing a recording of a video game for an improv comedy video. and then at the end regardless of what they know or don't they're all just happy to be there with their friends :') truly the best dub yet.
It’s also extra funny to me that Jess, Matt and Emily are aware that they are in a video game, but not what KIND of video game, so they act like they can power up or charge attacks.
If I had a dollar for every interpretive work where Holly voiced a character who is aware that their reality is fictional, I'd have two dollars. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice
I guess she just has a knack for turning old men with a special outlier position in the plot into self aware gods, who heavily restrain their powers to help their charges. Gordon for Coomer, and Josh for Hill. The only difference is that Coomer manages to help Gordon all the way to the end of the game, even if a few issues pop up along the way, while Hill ultimately is unable to help Josh with his multitude of mental problems revolving around his realization, and they both have different views on their fictional nature, Coomer slowly figuring out and fearing, but ultimately accepting, his not being real, while Hill is well aware, and it's Josh who figures out, and goes mad as a result in his inability to just let the predetermined nature of his reality slide.
It's incredible how they managed to rewrite the plot of the game. The park in the game (or Rude Mountain) is the place where the bad vibes of the universe come together so that they can be contained. And it's the containment of these vibes that keeps the universe and reality in balance. However, in order to keep it the environment intact, the vibes materialize into monsters that use more bad vibes to influence people, taking a part of their souls and turning them into monsters too. But, Josh realizes that Rude mountain is in fact an environment meant to keep the videogame stable. It's at this point that Josh becomes self-aware and realizes that they're in a videogame and nothing is real. When he realizes how their lives are fake and very limited, he tortures his friends in order to make them embrace the bad vibes and use them to manipulate their fates (the butterfly effect), but this begins to destabilize their reality altogether as Josh's actions are destroying the system meant to keep them in check. And finally, Dr. Hill is from the code of the game, trying to fix the problem by lecturing Josh on all that he has done and eventually solving it by leading Josh to his death. After surviving the experience, the group realizes how their lives have limits since they're in a videogame, and decide to make the best of it.
I already said this in a reply, but "Are you ready to feel the wrath of a god, kid?" is insanely good, because Holly is inverting the normal meaning of that phrase. She's asking if Josh/Ryan is mentally and emotionally prepared to _wield_ that power, and the hubris it creates.
oml I love this interpretation so much. I always saw it as just Dr. Hill saying 'You may feel like a god but I'm the one with the power here, are you ready to scorn me?' but this actually makes Josh/Ryan (...Jryan...?) going "oh my god YES" make way more sense. He's not just so unhinged that he's excited about the universe's therapist beating his ass for some reason, he's completely disregarding any implication that he _isn't_ ready for this because he's too excited to hold that power and emotion. He doesn't even interpret it as a warning, he's taking it as an invitation. Thank you, that is some novel-level shit
“Are you ready to feel the wrath of a God, kid?” This one line had more buildup, more drama and more raw fucking emotion than the entire Marvel franchise combined.
even worse: it's not obvious in the fandub, but Matt is actually the hardest character to keep alive through the whole game. You gotta make a lot of _weird_ choices in order to circumvent his death. The next hardest character to keep alive is Emily, the only other person of color, and after that is Jess, the one the story brands a Slut.
1:34:23 “Part one, I called it a raccoon puzzle… it was a wolverine.” This is the hardest I laughed the whole dub, and let me tell ya before hand my stomach already hurt.
There’s something really ironic about Ashley’s final comments during the credits being that she doesn’t think that a lack of free will is something to worry about, but she gets cut off by the cutscene transition before she can finish.
Mike pulling a gun on Emily because the vibes are making him do worse things when he hasn't said anything mean in a while actually makes more sense the original game's reason.
@JayFamTWH no it’s not werewolves, the monsters are wendigos that were originally humans that starved, ate humans to survive and became those monsters in the game.
@justarandompeep8945 I think they said "werewolf rules" to indicate that the characters thought it worked like how werewolves turn other people into werewolves by infecting them
They probably made some jokes before the recording and had it pulled up after prepping for the dub like in the Sonic 06 dub and the hotsauce thing with shadow
Im pretty sure Chase makes a joke about having a tab of chuck norris jokes open hes reading from. When he kills the torch near the start Edit: can confirm comment below. Time stamp is 1:04:00 or so, not near the start of the dub.
Just over an hour through, when Mikeplier is having a mental breakdown he tries to calm down with a Chuck Norris joke but remarks how he feels as if he just has the jokes open on another page
I feel like the discovering-and-moving-beyond-the-4th-wall plot line actually makes more sense now that both Scout and Jenny have figured out they're women.
@ZUE_NAID Both Scout and Jenny are trans. Scout plays Mike in this and was previously called Chase, and Jenny plays Josh in this and was previously called Ryan. At least, I'm pretty sure that's all true. I've only seen a couple of their dubs but yeah.
Parts that killed me: 0:54 Chuck Norris jokes 1:40 [How did I forget this lmfaooo] 2:24 "I'm over it" 4:15 "My telekinesis isn't working" 9:28 DAN Cliff 11:56 Sig Jaw 14:59 The Everyone Talks Over Each Other Channel 21:06 A place to live 24:20 Chris and doors 25:20 "OMG she's NAKIE" 25:50 Constructive Criticism 28:14 Gotta hit the target 28:57 "THAT'S THREE HALVES" 29:31 This entire bit but especially "No remainders" 33:25 DETRITUS? 36:41 That would never work 36:57 "Wanna kiss?

I watched this within like 6 months or so of its release, and was so surprised that it wasn’t a more popular audio clip. I LOVED getting to watch it pick up in popularity XD these comments make me genuinely so happy!
"WE ARE NEVER MEANT TO KNOW" IS AN EXTREMELY FITTING SONG CONSIDERING THE WHOLE MIKE/CHASE META SUBPLOT. OH MY GOD- I'M NEVER HEARING THAT TALLY HALL SONG THE SAME AGAIN.
Ok, straight up, this dub goes HARD. As someone who, oddly enough, first engaged with the game during Markiplier's playthrough, it's so interesting to see all the characters twisted into such different people entirely. Horny weirdo Mike becoming a self-aware parody of Markiplier and Emily going from a complete bitch to a generally clueless neutral character is such an interesting direction. Easily on par with the Sonic 06 dub making Eggman an aLpHa gAmEr, Elise a sociopath, and Shadow an insecure whiny twink. EDIT: I meant that SILVER was the whiny twink - dunno why I said Shadow.
my favourite thing in this dub is, inexplicably, Dyvonne's line of "[the two arm perk]'s stuck inside of me now... plaguing my body... ruining my organs..." the idea of having two arms slowly shutting down your like. immune system or something. is hysterical to me
If I had a nickel for every video-game based longform improv project featuring Hollowtones as a Doctor with a demolished fourth wall, a Wikipedia article, calling its own format stupid, an ambiguously godlike older man, someone holding their friend at gunpoint for no discernable reason, a man that was born from a tube and a dog that can't die at Chuck E Cheese, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
can I just say, Holly had some really badass lines and did a ton of great worldbuilding. this dub probably had more of a narrative than even the RE2 dub!
Chase did an amazing job showing the mental decent of a person who is realizing that they are not who they should be and that the person that they "control" will survive till the end and so nothing matters. He starts as just a Markiplier parody and becomes this self-aware tragedy of a favorite character.
"Isnt that right chase!" "Dont say that, DON'T SAY THAT!" *couple minutes later* "Alright, c'mon Ryan" I just fuckin died about how they made those characters just understand whats happening and how it was just a fandub 🤣
Beginning: Gamers get stuck on a mountain with bad vibes End: Rude Mountain is an Eldritch entity hosting the whole universe’s bad vibes and our characters are stuck in a loop
I'm sure this isn't the ONLY example of a fandub's plot being better than the games plot, I would have to think about it more, but this is definitely the BEST example of a fandub's plot being better than the games plot.
Personally, the Sly Cooper fandub is a cinematic masterpiece compared to the source material. The game could've won awards if Bentley and Murray switched bodies, Sly and Bentley's grandmothers were revealed to be a lesbian Washington and Franklin, Carmelita was a reincarnated Teddy Roosevelt, and Sly and the voodoo crocodile lady debated the merits of Disney's Pocahontas.
Not to hold anything against the Fandub but,this one really isnt a masterpiece of plot writing,if you were to judge it as a real plot youd see that its highly inconsistent and has themes that dont work with each other. OG Until Dawn at the very least has a decent plot thats coherent.
@ECODKyleskymast I didn't expect anything. Don't know what you're talking about. The guy who made this comment said that the fandubs plot is better than that of the original game. I judged it by how I would judge a plot, that's it really. Doesn't take anything away from the fandub, just find it strange to claim that the plot of the Dub is better than the original one. And if you start calling the plot of the Dub better and making it more than it actually is its only natural that it has to be judged as a plot. Which again, I don't think is a good thing to bring up for a fandub, so you should really respond to him and not me.
I love how in a wierd sort of way Markiplier/Chase's arc is very tragic. He plays into it well and eventually the humor is gone in his bit, but there is a tragic comedy in realizing there is no need for effort in your existence. That life is predetermined and nothing you do matters. I have to respect Chase's commitment to the bit and everyone's adaptment (or plain character ignorance) of the ultimate truth.
It's like the perfect opposite of imagining Sisyphus happy. Instead of finding meaning in a meaningless repetitive task, he realises that his heroism and his achievements mean nothing because he was destined to succeed.
This is an overarching narrative from the Spider Man fandub, both MJ and Mike are able to see through the bounds of the Universe, Mike just went the extra mile
I have to imagine it was some kind of debrief that happened off-screen after HLVRAI, with Dr Hill helping Coomer come to terms with the knowledge he now possessed about the nature of reality
Jess becoming self aware manifesting as “I thought I liked it when he’s mean to me, why does it hurt so much? Why does it hurt so much” gets to me every time 💔
Mike went from a Markiplier parody being rude while making podcasts, to a Markiplier parody hunting people for sport, to a Markiplier parody gaining cosmic awareness and having a existential crisis…
1:40 I completely forgot about this, super out of pocket lmaooo Also Mar censoring himself with “your eye looks so effed up oh my gosh” and then immediately going “what the fuck was that?” is more funny than it should be lol
[SPOILERS] Mikeiplier really had me wondering if he was about to die, and/or if Chase was aware it was a no-death run or if a Mike death was about to just bulldoze him and he was gearing up to make it the funniest.
I'm fairly certain you can't kill Mike or Sam in the game, at all. Even if everyone else dies, they HAVE to be in the cabin to set it on fire at the end of the night and escape. So yeah even on a full-death run, Mike has plot armour.
Matt is a super underrated character... all things considered, he is the character that emerges in the best shape. The other characters begin ignorant of their status as fictional characters, and when the truth of their world is revealed they either ignore it or go insane, focusing on their inability to change the outcome. But from the beginning, Matt's focus is on what he CAN do within the scope of the dub, and not the predestined outcome. His perks let him acknowledge his limitations while still keeping his own agency, and so even when the others are succumbing to the vibes, he keeps a level mind (as best seen when he reunites with Jess, who has only just realized what has happened. He immediately spells out the specific dangers of the Mountain and tries to put forward a plan. only the sudden warping of the lantern, a desperate vibe sabotage, can throw him off). In the end, he even gets the last laugh-- while the others are trying to come to terms with their place in the narrative at the end, he criticizes the role that was foisted onto him, defying their limited reality ("Seems like a super massive issue to put a black guy in the game and not do anything with him"). Matt ends up with both his sanity and his sense of self intact, something no other character does. He is the winner of the Until Dawn dub.
A thing I noticed is that, over the course of the dub, Sophie slowly started to dub Sam as she was characterized in game, just instead of rallying people to help them survive, she is trying to keep Mike/Chase from falling apart from the realization of their reality being a sham despite being aware just what she is in herself.
I don't think it's been pointed out but the scene with Dan's Cliff kind of goes with the theme. Emily and Matt didn't give into the rude vibes and were polite, so Dan let them go with no fuss ("Y'all are chill, thank you so much", that might imply most people don't pass the rude vibes check).
"HEY, IT'S THE NON-COPYRIGHTED CHARACTER, SIGJAW" LMFAOOOO

She did a wonderful job
Did u change it to her new name after she transitioned? Thats poggers
@ZUE_NAID i did! and thank you :)
@lokis@lokisbitterghostbased
The way Mikeplier was gradually realizing and accepting the truth of the world was truly something else
The fact he went from
"Markiplier in Until Dawn"
to
"Markiplier realizing that he's PLAYING Until Dawn"
then
"Chase realizing he's pretending to be Markiplier playing Until Dawn for a Real Time Fandub"
The slow degradation of the fourth wall was actually a really cool idea
Saturno I felt the same way. The fourth wall getting destroyed was funny as Mike slowly began to peel back the fabric of his reality. But then the fourth wall just got straight up pulverized at the end and while realizing your in a game is fine ig. The whole knowing the future and having everything seem pointless kinda ruined the character for me.
Or I am looking too much into people dubbing over video game cutscene and should probably go to bed
@Mizir-pq7jf to be fair they had VERY little to work with on Mike’s end. The decision at the very beginning to make him mikeiplier probably saved the whole dub since there’s so little to work with, for more than half the game he’s either alone or his only companion is the dog.
@Yeetbc you make a far better point then whatever I was thinking at 3 am
Saturno Mikepliers realization at the start was pretty great…. But once he began remarking how pointless everything was it just kinda ruined the rest of the story. Which sounds silly considering it is just a dub, but that’s just my opinion.
Which is why In terms of humor I prefer the First Part because of the great improv. Whereas with the second part the only moment that made me laugh out loud was the bit about Mikepliers wife.
“That’s not armor, that’s a towel”
-Markiplier
It is plot armor, though.
that's as unarmored as you can possibly be
@kiroubada not unless you're nakey
"Thats a snow"
If this were an MMO it’d be super powerful armor
1:30:18 Chris completes his character arc by learning how to open doors
He finally unlocked the door opening perk.
“Aah.” “SHUT UP! im talking here”
@antonhagbox02 r e a l
I love how these dubs begin with so little sense of plot until it reaches the halfway point where it starts to get so ridiculously convoluted, deep, dark and VERY meta
Yeah, with RE2 as well.
Sonic Riders and the Spider-Man dub do it too!
I think its because its a really long time to keep improvising haha
"I refuse to look past the 4th wall for the rest of this dub" is one of the most meta paradoxical lines in any of these dubs
The entire end half of this is the same energy as Storm's monologue from sonic riders fandub, absolutely hilarious.
The bit with Markiplier slowly becoming omniscient is absolutely genius
Just like the average markiplier video
Top 3 quotes
3- "Oh my god! SHE'S NAKEY AND ITS COLD!"

2- "I should've known that saying what that thing was would've made it leave... Just like when I called my wife a b¡tch and she left"
-Mikeplier
1- "Seems like a super massive issue to put a black guy in this game and then not use him for anything"
-Matt
"Are you ready to feel the wrath of a god, kid?"
I'm quite fond of
"That looks like a place to li~ve"
-Chris
"Dis-pear. Mmh, yummy."
Markiplier, fearing for his life and on the verge of a mental collapse:
"When Chuck Norris divides there are no remainders"
The chuck norris jokes killed me and I don’t get them
@kawaiicake8038 basically the joke is that martial artist and actor Chuck Norris is so amazing he can do impossible things like swim through land (in comparison with Jesus walking on water).
@kawaiicake8038 you y

@thebloodyaussie1458 y
“Are You Ready To Feel The Wrath Of A God Kid” Holy Shit That Execution Lmao
1:03:08 is where the monolouge starts
1:03:33 for the iconic quote
Ryan yelling "OH MY GOD YES!" made me die laughing
@VaalanHei honorable service. o7
Holly is absolutely amazing and while everyone was incredible, she definitely cemented the whole thing
And it's so good, because Holly is inverting the normal meaning of that phrase. She's asking if Josh/Scout is mentally and emotionally prepared to _wield_ that power, and the hubris it creates.
29:02 has got to be my favorite part in the entire dub purely for the comedy gold line of
*"THAT'S THREE HALVES YOU SON OF A BITCH"*
LITERALLY ITS SO GOOD
"Thats two jobs-"
- Michael Afton
@lillyladyvee
Get thrown across the room
“ *your little ritual, has thrown the whole WORLD into strife* “
The Therapist is my favorite character, hes not just a shitpost, hes a well-PLAYED shitpost, he feels fucking intimidating
Holly is an amazing actress
@acreativename7999 holly and Alfred are the best voice actors ever
@freezy3739 I'm here to make an announcement 😏
*"Are you ready to feel the wrath of a God, kid?"* That goes so damn hard
Holly's voice + Peter's face has me rolling. Ironically, I was more freaked out by the original character in the game and would scream in horror whenever he came on screen, much to my brother's amusement.
I love how the entire story of the dub all came from a tiny offhand comment of "What is this rude mountain or something?"
That's how it always starts.
Floppy feet was caused by Penny’s “a computer… webkinz!” Moment which also caused the whole narrative to be about delving in his mind because of “what is that?” “It’s my mind”
The GameCube 2 plot line also happened because of a throwaway comment.
I love that they take by complete accident the WEIRDEST improvised statement to turn it into the focus of the dub, it’s just as glorious every time.
That's improv, baby!
And let’s not forget Tilted Towers
Also in the moment it gets Immediately passed over by Sam getting her lips unstuck
I just love that they make up speaking lines for non-vocal characters. The dog speaking had me on the floor.
"You're my friend!"
"O-kee"
“More than anything in the world! Who’s Chuck Norris?”
for me, it was all the most random objects, like the barrels and the padlock lmao. for some reason i just really like them
Just the immediate whiplash of "I'm going to kill the next person I fucking see" to a mutal "I'm so happy to see you♡♡♡" killed me
"You killed Jimmy The Talking Padlock"
just wanted to mention this somewhat underrated moment at 1:22:15
Josh/Ryan: "what's your name?"
Sam: "sam? _w h a t t h e f u c k_ "
Red: "ᵈᵘⁿᵏᵃᶜᶜᶦⁿᵒ"
I love that is was so quiet and I don’t understand it oh god
Adam Sandler is haunting snapcube
@kawaiicake8038 Al Pacino did a stupid commercial with Dunkin Donuts, where he dances around and sings "Dunkacinno" based on their new drink.
@lavans5721 I don't like that you just _knew this_
@blue_the_boy_kisser I exist solely to spread this vile knowledge onto those yet unknown to it, there is nothing in your power able to stop me.
"Like when I called my wife a bitch and she left" is the best line of any real-time fandub
Does anyone know a timestamp for this moment?
@Baptiste_enjoyer12 1:39 !
At least a hedgehog didn’t piss on that wife
you're forgetting "You've always been bitch, Sonic. Always."
why the fuck did I think he said pidgeon until I saw this comment.
My favorite quote 38:30 "The ultimate rudeness; Manslaughter"
"Manslaughter sounds worse than murder; like I'm a butcher in some evil meat shop, and ground up a bunch of people to- (...)"
- Gordon Freeman, Freeman's Mind
One of my favourite lines in the whole dub 🤣
Okay but. Real talk?
The lines, “Phil Spencer could walk on water. Chuck Norris could swim through land… But I… I could fly through death, bitch.” have NO FUCKING BUSINESS going as hard as they do.
i'm desperately trying to figure out the time stamp for this lol
@autumn-vl5ez 32:23, and I think what makes it is how effortlessly Ryan switches voices
No, like, meta jokes aside, Ryan's voice acting in this one is OUTSTANDING. That monologue he has towards the end with the vibes? Putting aside that it's about the reception of a RUclips video, the delivery is terrifying!
@malachiatkinson7245 you're absolutely right
I thought it fell flat
Mikeiplier losing his mind but still remembering to look out for his dog and repeatedly saying "hey doggy!!" with sincere enthusiasm is just. Great. Truly, the last thing we retain is our pack-bonding.
Honestly that's just what mental illness is like lmao
@justaskeleton9087 true
Also entirely in character for the real Markiplier.
We humans literally had a phase where we kept rocks as pets. Our ability to pack bond with literally anything is confounding and miraculous.
Like that SpongeBob episode where Patrick's pet rock wins the snail race
I had a dream that Mikeiplier won an Oscar and there was a massive speech about him surviving Rude Mountain, and I don't know how to feel about that being in my dreams.
WELL HE HAS AN AWARD NOW JUST NOT FOR THE RUDE MOUNTAIN :D
Lmao I love when I get super weird dreams like those, so much fun
Just another reality
Once I had a dream that involved me, my friend, and Markiplier being in Phasmophobia
DUDE the first time I saw this dub I had a dream the next night where I tracked down Mikeplier’s VA and discussed the cost of ascension with her. Something about the character gets into your head
The fucking "I'll shoot you" bit at 59:14 had me dying laughing. The fact Chase couldn't keep his own laughter in and that it actually makes sense within the bonkers narrative they stiched together just elevates it to legendary status.
His giggles worked too! Making it sound like a crazy panic
That just proves a lovecraftian comedy could be the funniest fucking thing
His laugh actually sounded like Markiplier's laugh
I've been saying this for years. Cosmic comedy: where their is an internal logic to the madness, but its beyound human understand. And its funny.
Guys, it all became full circle.
Chase and Ryan became self aware and the characters realized that they are the ones controlling them.
They were the controller.
Just like the Kinect.
BRUH
I need to go lie down.
Oh my god you're *right*
Replying in the hopes that this reaches top comment. Holy shit.
My brain, it hurts
1:04:33 Mike/Markiplier: *barely contained rage* I'm going to kill the next person I see, I swear to God.
Wolf: Hello hi I'm so happy to see you
Mark: *cute dog voice* Hey oh my god oh my god what's going on
We all thought that dog was next for a second there, right?
Underrated moment, honestly 😂😂
My favorite is the moment right after with the 'lil Wolfie's "whububububububuBAAAAH"
Was that Penny Parker doing a DollipDaze impression with the wolf or was it DollipDaze?
Tbf, he did say PERSON, not THING.
@JMandJJ7797 I think it is Dollip/Joy judging by vocal tones
"we are are all Daniel"
"Actually my name is Josh it's my first day"
That shit killed me
Same 😂
So that’s what happened to him…
It takes time to assimilate and lose your name.
9:52 😂👍
"You turned yourself into a half-horse half-ghost half-man, THAT"S THREE HALVES YOU SON OF A BITCH!"
I love Holly
Oh, same! Holly is fucking amazing!
Time stamp?
@Dusty-69420 about 29:00
If anyone was curious, Holly was referencing part 1 where Ryan said he was half ghost ("I'm actually half ghost, when you expect the vibes you kinda die.") and later he said he was a horseman. ("I'm a horseman, I know about horoscopes!") These quotes might be a little off, but you get the jist.
quoting this forever, thank you Holly
59:42 When Chase says "sorry," it perfectly matches up with Mike's head nod. Such an under appreciated moment.
Pretty sure it’s edited in post to line up more? But it’s still really fun
Chase and Ryan demolishing the fourth wall is horrible and I want more
I loved the joke about how people get their voices mixed up.
@EmperorSeth bc I honestly used to think they were the same person
@flask223 same, and I don’t even know why, they don’t sound very alike in hindsight
@gregjayonnaise8314 I think it's because they talk similar, like not the tone of their voices but just the way they say things lmao
@succculentshark that’s true
Everyone is understandably losing their minds at "are you ready to feel the wrath of a god, kid?" But for me what makes that part is Ryan's rapturous "oh my god, yes!" right after
i know right!!! ryan did such an amazing fucking job with josh’s increasingly unhinged behavior
i was blown away by how his plot turned into this kid believing he could harness the powers of rude mountain like a god, and meanwhile his ‘therapist’ has godlike powers of his own as the therapist of the universe and they end up antagonizing each other over the stability of rude mountain
josh is so far gone in that scene, laughing and laughing while dr hill tries to humble him, not even the threat of gods wrath can scare him anymore. hes fully succumbed to the chaotic vibes. ryan and holly both killed it in the therapy scenes holy shit
Ryan is ready for Freddy.
What’s a god but a king…..of five nights at fregggys
Emily and Matt's "arguments" are so great. Just needlessly manufacturing conflict out of literally nothing because they can tell the characters are supposed to be arguing.
Makes me wonder how Mike's line "this is the joke I'm gonna be going with the whole dub" can be interpreted in retrospect given the direction his character went here.
The truth is he has been observing Fourth Wall for the whole dub. After Josh Manipulates the vibes into distorting reality, the characters's sanity and beliefs, Josh (Ryan Mitchum) and Mike (Chase Young) speaking to each other by Voice actors names as the result of them destroyed the 4th wall. While Sam desperately trying to restore the story arc back. Chase is even aware that he (Mike) along with Sophie (Sam) can't die because they are given the plot armor by the game as a main characters.
@Zerokin and also, the death of a character does not a dead voice actor make
@Zerokin Well, technically Mike and Sam can both die, but not until the final scene.
I’d just like to say that Mike has the same character arc as Markipliar did in real life, going from stupid goof to fully accepting his own mortality and also being a better person because of it
@GWAHGWAHGWAHGWAHGWAHGWAHGWAHGW To be fair even goof mark was good lol
The emotional arc of Sonic Adventure 2 was everyone fucking Eggman’s wife. Resident Evil 2 was about the feminization of Leon Kennedy and exploring the deep trauma of Club Penguin user FloppyFeet. In the Vibes of Rude Mountain we get a parody of Markiplier realizing he is a parody of the real Markiplier in a parody dub of Until Dawn and that everything and everyone around him is fake and that their actions don’t matter because there is a set path for them all. Effervescent.
Don't forget Sonic 06 which explores the love triangle between Sonic, Shadow and Memphis Tennessee. Meanwhile Eggman creates the greatest game of all time: Fortnite.
Also Sonic Riders, where Sonic realises he's a little bitch.
@daedalus6796 sonic riders a.k.a. sonic stop being an ass challenge
@daedalus6796 ah, yes, you are correct. What a fool I was 😔
@daedalus6796 and spiderman where peter fucking burns ottos diary
Don’t forget the biggest plot point of not nice hill, what the dog do’in at chucky cheese?
20:05 "Listen, I know about red. I know ALL about red" god Im so glad Red capitalized on that opportunity
42:10 I love that Chase is just ready to go off on Banjo and Kazooie. That shit was premeditated.
I wasn’t prepared for that take. But I feel the same way about Crash Bandicoot so I can respect it
@somethingsuperbland8829 I feel that way about pretty much every N64 and PS1 title. I played a lot of that stuff and I have NO nostalgia for that era of gaming lol. PC gaming is where all my good memories are tbh.
Releast part of any fandub ever
I think my favorite acting technique that shows up in these fandubs (among many excellent patterns) is that whenever someone doesn’t know what to say, they’ll either describe an aspect of their character’s appearance or describe what they’re doing. And, somehow, it is so funny every time. It’s stream-of-consciousness acting. Fantastic stuff
And then Chase lampshades it in the final cave level right before Ryan dies!!
@tatltails3923 YES I hadn’t even noticed that
"I'm going to climb up this wall now"
"My knuckles are the size of God"
"My mustache looks like fucking grass"
"Oh, wait... I have hands?"
"Are you ready to feel the wrath of a god, kid?" is the most metal line that's ever come out of Holly's mouth
And it's followed up with " 'dis pear. Mmmm~, yummy~! "
“WAAAAARIIOOO!! IMA GONNA WIN!!!” Is a close second though
I’d personally say “There’s a world inside your dreams, Gordon. AND I NEED TO GO THERE” just BARELY beats it out in context.
Can we please acknowledge Holly’s “we haven’t had vibes this bad since the echidna incident of 19 odd 7”
YES, thank fuck someone pointed that out
Time stamp?
@ivylives559 13:00
What is it?
@callumferry3097 It's a reference to their Sonic fandubs, where they frequently reference the year 1907
1:03:07
"I gotta say... real, real sad, what happened to ya. You wake up one day, you realise the world you know is... limited, and realise that you knowin' such means you can play with it, tug on the strings of it. You look at that world and you think yourself some sort of god, don't you, son? ...Are you ready to feel the wrath of a god, kid?"
That was actually some seriously raw dialogue from Holly.
"HAH! OH MY GOD YES!"
I expected to laugh and I got chills instead
I want that in that tumblr posts of raw lines from ridiculous settings. Yknow the one with quotes like “then perish” from that Obama rp or “if the world chooses to be my enemy, I’ll fight just like I always have” from Shadow the Hedgehog.
sounds like a villain's ominous voiceover in the trailer for a movie
@somethingsuperbland8829 or “Do you think god stays in heaven because he, too, is scared of what he’s created” from fkn Spy Kids 2
51:53 Holly going "Oh fuckin' nasty" cracks me up each time
She said it so genuinely
"Now that this hetero interaction is done with-"
I absolutely adore Scout correcting everyone on the years games come out with no warning at all.
"OVERWATCHCAMEOUTIN2016" took me OUT
YOU CHANGWD IT TO HER PREFERED NAME :D
(Also i think there are rwo people in this voicw cast that came out as trans. One is scout and the other is jenny. Idk who jenny was can u tell me?)
@CC-sq1kf ya i know noww
I swear you replied to me with a "yeahhh" i cant find it anymore. Can u please send another one 😭
i love the levels of meta understanding within the cast. dr hill of course knows all. ashley and chris think that they're both real people. jess, matt and emily understand that they're in a video game, and therefore need to use skill points and quick times to do things. sophie, chase and ryan understand that they are dubbing a recording of a video game for an improv comedy video. and then at the end regardless of what they know or don't they're all just happy to be there with their friends :') truly the best dub yet.
okay this is genuinely a really helpful summary of the meta bit. I watched it live and while I followed it pretty well you put it very nicely here 👍
20:00 still thinking about this line after finishing
And Mike is slowly increasing his awareness throughout the series, as he is the true protagonist
It’s also extra funny to me that Jess, Matt and Emily are aware that they are in a video game, but not what KIND of video game, so they act like they can power up or charge attacks.
And Chris is obsessed with videogames, despite being possibly the least aware of his status as a character in one.
1:04:32
This is a great example of how a dog can always make you feel better pretty much no matter how bad your day has been
Hello hi I'm so happy to see you
If I had a dollar for every interpretive work where Holly voiced a character who is aware that their reality is fictional, I'd have two dollars. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice
What if Holly is a sentient AI?
More specifically, voiced old weird doctors
I guess she just has a knack for turning old men with a special outlier position in the plot into self aware gods, who heavily restrain their powers to help their charges. Gordon for Coomer, and Josh for Hill. The only difference is that Coomer manages to help Gordon all the way to the end of the game, even if a few issues pop up along the way, while Hill ultimately is unable to help Josh with his multitude of mental problems revolving around his realization, and they both have different views on their fictional nature, Coomer slowly figuring out and fearing, but ultimately accepting, his not being real, while Hill is well aware, and it's Josh who figures out, and goes mad as a result in his inability to just let the predetermined nature of his reality slide.
What was the other one? I'm brainfarting atm
@BleakForest in hlvrai she voiced Coomer
It's incredible how they managed to rewrite the plot of the game. The park in the game (or Rude Mountain) is the place where the bad vibes of the universe come together so that they can be contained. And it's the containment of these vibes that keeps the universe and reality in balance. However, in order to keep it the environment intact, the vibes materialize into monsters that use more bad vibes to influence people, taking a part of their souls and turning them into monsters too. But, Josh realizes that Rude mountain is in fact an environment meant to keep the videogame stable. It's at this point that Josh becomes self-aware and realizes that they're in a videogame and nothing is real. When he realizes how their lives are fake and very limited, he tortures his friends in order to make them embrace the bad vibes and use them to manipulate their fates (the butterfly effect), but this begins to destabilize their reality altogether as Josh's actions are destroying the system meant to keep them in check. And finally, Dr. Hill is from the code of the game, trying to fix the problem by lecturing Josh on all that he has done and eventually solving it by leading Josh to his death. After surviving the experience, the group realizes how their lives have limits since they're in a videogame, and decide to make the best of it.
This is the plot of Loki
@tyjackers6913 it's the plot of loki dude
I'm pretty sure it was Dr. Hill using the Butterfly effect instead of Josh (1:16:30)
gotta wonder if holly was taking notes during the other’s scenes to make sure everything stayed coherent LMAO
@INNERLMNT which stream?
she remembered the horoscopes joke so almost definitely
I already said this in a reply, but "Are you ready to feel the wrath of a god, kid?" is insanely good, because Holly is inverting the normal meaning of that phrase. She's asking if Josh/Ryan is mentally and emotionally prepared to _wield_ that power, and the hubris it creates.
The implication that Josh and Ryan are both part of each other is somewhat unsettling
oh shit i didnt even think of it like that. thats so fucking delicious
oml I love this interpretation so much. I always saw it as just Dr. Hill saying 'You may feel like a god but I'm the one with the power here, are you ready to scorn me?' but this actually makes Josh/Ryan (...Jryan...?) going "oh my god YES" make way more sense. He's not just so unhinged that he's excited about the universe's therapist beating his ass for some reason, he's completely disregarding any implication that he _isn't_ ready for this because he's too excited to hold that power and emotion. He doesn't even interpret it as a warning, he's taking it as an invitation. Thank you, that is some novel-level shit
i always read it as a threat but this makes the line so much more raw
Oohoohoo I didn’t perceive it like that originally but I love that
“Are you ready to feel the wrath of a God, kid?”
This one line had more buildup, more drama and more raw fucking emotion than the entire Marvel franchise combined.
How does it feel to say something so controversial yet so brave?
That delivery was absolute perfection.
@oneinathousand2156 yet so wrong 😂
@victimz0014 It's true, "MCU bad" isn't a very bold meme to make rn
@o.b.carson1338 except it’s not, but keep dreaming 👍
22:20 is so underrated. Her tone and delivery when she says "I'm getting them. I'm just not laughing, 'cause they're not funny."
"Seems like kinda a messed up issue to put a black guy in this game and not do anything with him" my cheeks hurt because its true
even worse: it's not obvious in the fandub, but Matt is actually the hardest character to keep alive through the whole game. You gotta make a lot of _weird_ choices in order to circumvent his death. The next hardest character to keep alive is Emily, the only other person of color, and after that is Jess, the one the story brands a Slut.
@tatltails3923 Josh isn't a poc?
@MidnightBlackSky he is, I forgot about that, that's on me
@tatltails3923 honestly that's even worse because Josh is the only character that cannot be saved
@tatltails3923 wow lmao fuck this game
1:34:23
“Part one, I called it a raccoon puzzle… it was a wolverine.”
This is the hardest I laughed the whole dub, and let me tell ya before hand my stomach already hurt.
I'm still convinced it's a badger non-dubbed Chris was joking.
It's definitely a racoon in the original version but within the dub canon, Josh first called it a wolverine, so canonically it's a wolverine
:)
@friendbreakfast it’s a Wolverine Sam even calls it that in the oh
There’s something really ironic about Ashley’s final comments during the credits being that she doesn’t think that a lack of free will is something to worry about, but she gets cut off by the cutscene transition before she can finish.
19:17 I don't know why my man saying he's so sick with it while his girl supposedly falls to her death gets me hurting so good but damn it I love it.
@vistabug sickwithitrillonarie grindset
"I could fly through death" paired with the reveal was some good shit
Chuck Norris could swim through land
@erinmahrer2899 Phil Spencer can walk on water
"-and holly is doing a really good job of tying it all together-"
"aw thank you :)"
"youre welcome holly :)"
this is my favourite dub by far
Mike pulling a gun on Emily because the vibes are making him do worse things when he hasn't said anything mean in a while actually makes more sense the original game's reason.
what, you don't instantly suspect werewolf rules are now real and a good reason to shoot at folks anytime someone gets bit?
I don't think it's that crazy of a reason for some people. Obviously not everyone would think that with supernatural monsters, but some people would.
@riloburu WEREWOLVES?! What the fuck's this game *actually* about?
@JayFamTWH no it’s not werewolves, the monsters are wendigos that were originally humans that starved, ate humans to survive and became those monsters in the game.
@justarandompeep8945 I think they said "werewolf rules" to indicate that the characters thought it worked like how werewolves turn other people into werewolves by infecting them
'chuck norris can build a snowman out of rain' these guys have to have some stuff written down this is gold
I heard a lot of Chuck Norris jokes when I was in middle school, but that one was a new one for me.
They probably made some jokes before the recording and had it pulled up after prepping for the dub like in the Sonic 06 dub and the hotsauce thing with shadow
Im pretty sure Chase makes a joke about having a tab of chuck norris jokes open hes reading from. When he kills the torch near the start
Edit: can confirm comment below. Time stamp is 1:04:00 or so, not near the start of the dub.
Just over an hour through, when Mikeplier is having a mental breakdown he tries to calm down with a Chuck Norris joke but remarks how he feels as if he just has the jokes open on another page
At 1:04:09 he says, "It's as if I have these open on another tab," and that line itself is also golden XD
I feel like the discovering-and-moving-beyond-the-4th-wall plot line actually makes more sense now that both Scout and Jenny have figured out they're women.
Uh i mean. Can u explain. Also who is jenny? Like did someone also come out?
@ZUE_NAID Both Scout and Jenny are trans. Scout plays Mike in this and was previously called Chase, and Jenny plays Josh in this and was previously called Ryan. At least, I'm pretty sure that's all true. I've only seen a couple of their dubs but yeah.
@xona123 yeah I learned that after I made the reply lol
I think chongo is jenny rht

markiplier dissociation and mental collapse is peak comedy holy shit
"I can see all of us right now" Just killed me
"and now I can only see him"
You know, out of context "markipliers dissociation and mental collapse is peak comedy" is one hell of a strange sentence
@QuokkaWaka Unus Annus was basically that
1:04:35 I UNINTENTIONALLY FOUND THE ORIGIN OF THE AUDIO!?!??? WHAT?!!!
The PaS One?
Same here! I heard it somewhere last year, and I somehow found where it was originating from lol
I watched this within like 6 months or so of its release, and was so surprised that it wasn’t a more popular audio clip. I LOVED getting to watch it pick up in popularity XD these comments make me genuinely so happy!
Gotta say, I really loved Mike- no, _Chase's_ "It's all up to you Sophie. Good luck." at the end there. It just hits right, y'know?
The climax of this fandub was done so much more incredibly well than we ever could have expected and I kind of love it.
1:31:22 :)
Ryan, as Josh: "What's your name?"
Sophie, as Sam: "Sam. What the fuck--"
Red, very quietly: "Dunkaccino."
1:22:15
it’s a whole new game
@0_Cardboard_0 Dunkaccino!
@Delta21OnYTIf you want creamy goodness, I’m your man!
@Dungeonpath Say hello to my chocolate blend!
Attica, hoo wah, latte light!
"that's not armor that's towel"
is literally my favorite part of this whole dub and i have no clue why
I love the brief flash of "CHASE AS WHO?" In the trailer
Yeah, it was pretty nice, huh?
"WE ARE NEVER MEANT TO KNOW" IS AN EXTREMELY FITTING SONG CONSIDERING THE WHOLE MIKE/CHASE META SUBPLOT.
OH MY GOD-
I'M NEVER HEARING THAT TALLY HALL SONG THE SAME AGAIN.
I said the same thing when I realized what was playing! I had seen the cover on her other channel, but I never would've expected this!
"everything falls apart" this song fits so incredibly well
I was literally listening to the album before watching this and it hit me like a train, beautifully
I noticed it immediately and was like "oh god this fits so perfectly, oh god."
Ok, straight up, this dub goes HARD. As someone who, oddly enough, first engaged with the game during Markiplier's playthrough, it's so interesting to see all the characters twisted into such different people entirely. Horny weirdo Mike becoming a self-aware parody of Markiplier and Emily going from a complete bitch to a generally clueless neutral character is such an interesting direction. Easily on par with the Sonic 06 dub making Eggman an aLpHa gAmEr, Elise a sociopath, and Shadow an insecure whiny twink.
EDIT: I meant that SILVER was the whiny twink - dunno why I said Shadow.
i think you meant to put silver as the insecure whiny twink
@dogfish.dogfish Yeah, I did. Brainlet move on my part, lol.
Wasn't silver the whiny twink?
Wanting Shadow to be the whiny twink is a Freudian Slip.
It's interesting you read Elise as a sociopath. I saw her as a chronically overwhelmed space-case.
my favourite thing in this dub is, inexplicably, Dyvonne's line of "[the two arm perk]'s stuck inside of me now... plaguing my body... ruining my organs..." the idea of having two arms slowly shutting down your like. immune system or something. is hysterical to me
Mar's "she'll look so holy by the end of it" is also such an excellent line too, and for what!! for what!!!!
Either that or tearing organs apart and breaking bones from the inside.
The way that line is delivered, alongside "my perks can evolve" is so inexplicably funny
Sapping the nutritients from his body to maintain themselves first and foremost
i like the idea that the only way he could get enough skill points for it was to get rid of his immune system
This is bigger than avengers endgame.
Way bigger
You know it!
Biggest release of the decade, the century even
@seth_probably Biggest release of the millennium.
im vertainly more interested in this yeah. for a start im actually watching this.
Emily and Matt's relationship is so much more wholesome in this dub than the actual game.
If I had a nickel for every video-game based longform improv project featuring Hollowtones as a Doctor with a demolished fourth wall, a Wikipedia article, calling its own format stupid, an ambiguously godlike older man, someone holding their friend at gunpoint for no discernable reason, a man that was born from a tube and a dog that can't die at Chuck E Cheese, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

@ghostdatoast it's a great time
@ghostdatoast boy you're in for a god damn treat
Look Gordon, ropes!
@emblemblade9245 We can use- HELP ME, GORDON
can I just say, Holly had some really badass lines and did a ton of great worldbuilding. this dub probably had more of a narrative than even the RE2 dub!
She’s honestly tying it all together gg
Chuck Norris was so powerful that it took 2 Chuck Norrises to finally take him out
-Markiplier, I assume
Chase did an amazing job showing the mental decent of a person who is realizing that they are not who they should be and that the person that they "control" will survive till the end and so nothing matters. He starts as just a Markiplier parody and becomes this self-aware tragedy of a favorite character.
Yeah but now I’m mad at him because how am I supposed to explain to people that my favorite character is from a shitpost dub of a subpar horror game
the implications of dr hill and coomer knowing each other are terrifying
Perhaps one day that pendulum is going to swing the other direction...
*He-*
@INNERLMNT that would be godly
Honestly that reveal blew my fucking mind
Hello Gordon
"Isnt that right chase!"
"Dont say that, DON'T SAY THAT!"
*couple minutes later*
"Alright, c'mon Ryan"
I just fuckin died about how they made those characters just understand whats happening and how it was just a fandub 🤣
46:55 "please if you have some wikipedia article memorized about it that'd be great"
*mar's keyboard clacking softly in the background*
This turned into "Until Dawn but the Voice Actors are self aware" REAL quick
especially considering theres a joke made that essentially places them in the same universe
@fiberbriver yeah! The "I know your real last name! Isn't that right, Coomer?!"
@martinp1467 that and the guys response. "no, but i did work with him!"
1:28:04
Watching this just days after the Shadow the Hedgehog dub coming out is golden
Beginning: Gamers get stuck on a mountain with bad vibes
End: Rude Mountain is an Eldritch entity hosting the whole universe’s bad vibes and our characters are stuck in a loop
Dead by Daylight
I'm sure this isn't the ONLY example of a fandub's plot being better than the games plot, I would have to think about it more, but this is definitely the BEST example of a fandub's plot being better than the games plot.
Personally, the Sly Cooper fandub is a cinematic masterpiece compared to the source material. The game could've won awards if Bentley and Murray switched bodies, Sly and Bentley's grandmothers were revealed to be a lesbian Washington and Franklin, Carmelita was a reincarnated Teddy Roosevelt, and Sly and the voodoo crocodile lady debated the merits of Disney's Pocahontas.
Not to hold anything against the Fandub but,this one really isnt a masterpiece of plot writing,if you were to judge it as a real plot youd see that its highly inconsistent and has themes that dont work with each other. OG Until Dawn at the very least has a decent plot thats coherent.
I dunno man the sonic 06 fan dub was fantastic
@Shazam1998 It's literally them saying stuff on the fly, no script. That's why it's a Real-Time-Fandub, i have no clue what you expected
@ECODKyleskymast I didn't expect anything. Don't know what you're talking about. The guy who made this comment said that the fandubs plot is better than that of the original game. I judged it by how I would judge a plot, that's it really. Doesn't take anything away from the fandub, just find it strange to claim that the plot of the Dub is better than the original one. And if you start calling the plot of the Dub better and making it more than it actually is its only natural that it has to be judged as a plot. Which again, I don't think is a good thing to bring up for a fandub, so you should really respond to him and not me.
1:04:32 this is hilarious
You Came Here From Crumb Didnt You
@twansmasc not just that
@twansmascI did
@twansmascOthers as well :D
I love Friendship Kicks that are actually slaps in the face, Emily really knows what’s up.
I love how in a wierd sort of way Markiplier/Chase's arc is very tragic. He plays into it well and eventually the humor is gone in his bit, but there is a tragic comedy in realizing there is no need for effort in your existence. That life is predetermined and nothing you do matters. I have to respect Chase's commitment to the bit and everyone's adaptment (or plain character ignorance) of the ultimate truth.
It's like the perfect opposite of imagining Sisyphus happy. Instead of finding meaning in a meaningless repetitive task, he realises that his heroism and his achievements mean nothing because he was destined to succeed.
The Doki Doki Literature Club effect.
@bashbashfulsson4540 that is a cool observation, thank u!
9:30 It's Daniel's Rad Cliff
I guffawed lol
it's a stroke of genius to put in IRL chase at the end instead of Mike. And holy shit, "Are you ready to feel the wrath of a god kid" had me STUNNED
This is an overarching narrative from the Spider Man fandub, both MJ and Mike are able to see through the bounds of the Universe, Mike just went the extra mile
for miles morale?
OH SHIT YOURE RIGHT
@apollojustice9401 morale - e = moral = vibes
CONNECTION?!
The Idea that Dr. Coomer and Dr. Hill worked together once brings me immense joy, and i need to see a comic of this interaction.
They were married
@flask223 No, Dr. Coomer's ex-wife was in the military.
@VoidVoidVoidVoidVi perhaps as a medic? Aka.. a doctor..
@The Chaos Queen Dr. Hill took his wife in the divorce
I have to imagine it was some kind of debrief that happened off-screen after HLVRAI, with Dr Hill helping Coomer come to terms with the knowledge he now possessed about the nature of reality
Jess becoming self aware manifesting as “I thought I liked it when he’s mean to me, why does it hurt so much? Why does it hurt so much” gets to me every time 💔
I knowwwww the voice acting made it even worse
Why did I get genuinely invested in Mike’s breakdown and realization that his reality is fake? Amazing dub!
“I know you have no opposable thumbs. But you’re still posing a threat to my forward motion.” Gets me EVERY SINGLE TIME
Mike went from a Markiplier parody being rude while making podcasts, to a Markiplier parody hunting people for sport, to a Markiplier parody gaining cosmic awareness and having a existential crisis…
1:40 I completely forgot about this, super out of pocket lmaooo
Also Mar censoring himself with “your eye looks so effed up oh my gosh” and then immediately going “what the fuck was that?” is more funny than it should be lol
"You turn yourself into a half horse half ghost half man. That's three halves you son of a b*tch!"
The therapist is the best character in this dub
30:24-30:59 mike's entire dialogue here combined w the fact u can only see parts of his face through the grate makes it so much funnier
“please come get me i’m so fucking scared :(“
R.I.P. Chuck Norris. May he fly through death.
Came here because of this
@Conrailguy99 Same

[SPOILERS]
Mikeiplier really had me wondering if he was about to die, and/or if Chase was aware it was a no-death run or if a Mike death was about to just bulldoze him and he was gearing up to make it the funniest.
I'm fairly certain you can't kill Mike or Sam in the game, at all. Even if everyone else dies, they HAVE to be in the cabin to set it on fire at the end of the night and escape.
So yeah even on a full-death run, Mike has plot armour.
@PaletteRabbitteif i recall correctly, you Can kill mike & sam, but only in the final scene at the house!
@gorvamp Yeah, everyone can die, but Sam Josh and Mike are all safe until Chapter 10.
It would've been really funny to have Mike rambling on and on in the lodge until he suddenly gets cut off when Hannah slices him open.
Matt coped with the breakage of reality way better than Ryan and Chase.
He had an hour alone to cope with it. And by the time he realized he was already basically past his point of guaranteed survival.
Matt is a super underrated character... all things considered, he is the character that emerges in the best shape.
The other characters begin ignorant of their status as fictional characters, and when the truth of their world is revealed they either ignore it or go insane, focusing on their inability to change the outcome. But from the beginning, Matt's focus is on what he CAN do within the scope of the dub, and not the predestined outcome. His perks let him acknowledge his limitations while still keeping his own agency, and so even when the others are succumbing to the vibes, he keeps a level mind (as best seen when he reunites with Jess, who has only just realized what has happened. He immediately spells out the specific dangers of the Mountain and tries to put forward a plan. only the sudden warping of the lantern, a desperate vibe sabotage, can throw him off).
In the end, he even gets the last laugh-- while the others are trying to come to terms with their place in the narrative at the end, he criticizes the role that was foisted onto him, defying their limited reality ("Seems like a super massive issue to put a black guy in the game and not do anything with him"). Matt ends up with both his sanity and his sense of self intact, something no other character does. He is the winner of the Until Dawn dub.
A thing I noticed is that, over the course of the dub, Sophie slowly started to dub Sam as she was characterized in game, just instead of rallying people to help them survive, she is trying to keep Mike/Chase from falling apart from the realization of their reality being a sham despite being aware just what she is in herself.
I don't think it's been pointed out but the scene with Dan's Cliff kind of goes with the theme. Emily and Matt didn't give into the rude vibes and were polite, so Dan let them go with no fuss ("Y'all are chill, thank you so much", that might imply most people don't pass the rude vibes check).
They never said "vibe check" in either dub, didn't they? Crazy.
Dang , 6 months felt like 84 years on the internet.
You should have said 114 years.
And I shouldn't have to explain why.
@Pedro Vaz aught 🤷♂️
