Holy crap, I thought I was the only one! Okay, I have a couple of short stories for you, or anyone who wishes to read: I was like ten years old, and I was playing this Nascar game on the ps1, and during the car select screen, I turned the car upside down and I could see the flat grey bottom of it, for some reason I got so scared I ran out of the room, it took me like an hour to work up the courage to continue playing. And this one's relatively recent, I was playing Hat in Time, and I was doing just what this guy is doing, exploring out of bounds. I saw this giant Mafia head in the distance, and it was like scary, but I wanted to see it. It took twenty minutes to get over there, the whole time fighting this unexplainable fear I was getting, and for what? Just as I got close, it teleported me back to the actual play area.
I had something similar to your OOB fear. I used to play Disney Infinity, and whenever you got close to the death plane (the bottom of the map), this creepy white haze would show up and this disturbing beeping noise. (it reminded me of those radio interruption tones that play when there's dangerous weather) It always scared me so much, and even worse- I can't find any trace of this online.
Here is my reasoning for fear of out of bounds Video games are fun, even when they're scary. we all know that the horror is intentional, and we usually have an explanation for it. But going out of bounds in games, it's unintentional. It's something the developers didn't want you to do. but that's only a small part of it. when you are out of bounds. you are *alone.* When you are out of bounds, you are out of *existence.* you have broken the barrier to this game's reality. you have crossed into something known, yet unknown. another, empty, universe. a blank universe, a universe never meant to exist. it's like the darkness. you know nothing will jump out of it to get you, but when you are having a staring contest with a plain of infinite void, it's hard to remember everything is all right. sometimes going out of bounds can even give you an existential crisis. but hell is it still fun.
Elijah Hanson I think you're just really edgy. Going out of bound doesnt mean, "you are out of existence." It just shows how the developers use tricks to make the background look lively and complex.
When you stare into the void, does the void stare back? Jokes aside, that's hella edgy, man. I think you may need to come to realize that it's only a video game.
I have that same fear, I remember when I was about 7 I clipped out of bounds in a Lego marvel game, and I was just falling with a peach colored background, and I just got creeped out.
I have that feeling too, it comes from knowing your doing something wrong (in-game wise) and a lack of music as the games response too, I guess it’s more a fear of like the game getting mad at you or something for it? It’s like staring into a mirror until you get uncomfortable. Nothing wrong with it, just doesn’t feels right
I love going out of bounds probably one of my favorite things to do in video games. (Some times even more so than playing the game). It's like taking a look into the fabric of reality and seeing what's really behind video games and the illusions they use.
I feel like the out of bounds fear comes from the fear of being stranded. It may have something to do with how the music fades out and how things start to render out.
when I was like 9 I had a toy story 3 game on the wii and there was this train level I fell out of bounds in. It went white and I fell for like 3 minutes. Now at that point I was already scared shitless cause I was 9 but then it teleported me back up and I got literally stuck in an prop and it started to glitch out. It froze and just had the most ear piercing sound play, then my Wii couldn't read the disc. I have been terrified of out of bounds areas since.
Really, please try it again when the invisible walls are removed or with a newer version of the mod or anything that make it possible to get closer!!!!!
I also have that fear. I feel like I'm falling forever and it's a lot like the emptiness of space and stuff. (I know that this is poorly worded but you get the idea.)
honestly subnautica's out of bounds or "dead zone/void" really scares me. it technically isn't out of bounds, but the ocean floor drops off and all you are left with is an infinite sea of nothing but micro organisms and giant glowing sea serpents.
I have the same phobia. I think with me it's because there's nothing out of the boundaries and that sense of nothingness really can be unsettling. Topped with the level music fading out adds to the anxiety that this isn't right.
Just found ur channel and I like this vid. I also have that phobia of going out of bounds in games for some reason, but I also have a phobia of the skyboxes in Mario Galaxy and Mario Galaxy 2 because idk
That phobia is weird I have it bur if its a desolate open area my mind makes me think theres "something" out there like looking under a large expansive sea
11:48 same bro. I use to have nightmares of me getting out of bounds somewhere and constantly falling through different objects because they’re not solid and it used to scare the crap out of me
I’d get scared to it’s like if I’m playing a game where my character is underwater like subnautica or sea of thieves, not scary but just makes you uneasy
Going out of bounds in Legend of Zelda Breath Of The Wild was cool as first, but then the nonsensical world I was in eventually got to me. It just felt empty.
Yea I feel really uncomfortable when going out of bounds. Just the feeling that there's nothing out there, and you're not supposed to be there anyway 😂
WARNING ⚠️ if you want to mod your switch I would recommend modding one that doesn’t have any precious save files on it, modding a switch isn’t always the safest option and sometimes can even lead to your switchs memory being erased completely
toniseanandcarter toniseanandcarter To make the levels feel real. If there were no surroundings, it would look like floating islands (just like hat kingdom)
Every kingdom: Yeah this one's gonna be real different from the rest were of them guys! It looks like there's nothing to explore, so let's move onto the next one. Oh no invisible walls! The music's stopped! Is it solid? It's not solid. I didn't expect it to be. So turns out that's a texture. In all seriousness great video!
Is anything was solid out of bounds, one of two things would happen: either everyone would mod their switch to place their balloons out there or Nintendo would be forced to put a patch out that not only makes the out of bounds area not solid, but also adds in new small things.
In the lake kingdom, try to do the cheep cheep glitch. I believe the RUclipsr DGR showed cased it. Beside that point when you do the cheep cheep fish glitch you can get out of the map. After that try to see if you can get out even more. (I believe that the cheep cheep fish you need is near the giant glope) have a good day my dude
I have it, but with the metro kingdom background, those skyscrapers, no one is there, just low poly cars, it fells so lonely, but specially the tallest skyscraper in the background causes me the keno phobia or something indescribable. I dreamed of going there and that it was solid ground
Dude, that's the same outfit I used for the duration of my play through. Nice to see someone else thought that the Waluigi hat looked dope with the shop outfit
I have out of bounds phobia or whatever its called too. It almost like im scared when a character is out of bounds, just relizing that everything actually does have a limit and is not as big as you thought.,
I have a similar fear to you, except I only freak out when I'm not expecting to fall through the ground or otherwise, if i'm expecting it, and want to do it, I love going out of bounds
You have to admit though, the backgrounds in this game are really beautiful
True
I admit it
So true I admit
Gud

I get that weird phobia when I almost die and go out of bounds. Its so uncomfortable😖. But this video is really cool!
I agree
i get that fear of out-of-bounds in games too, i'd imagine it's something about being somewhere you clearly weren't supposed to get to

When you stare into the void, does the void stare back?
Jokes aside, that's hella edgy, man. I think you may need to come to realize that it's only a video game.
I have the opposite of that phobia. I love out of bounds stuff. When the distant mountains become a cardboard cutout and stuff. I love it
I have that same fear, I remember when I was about 7 I clipped out of bounds in a Lego marvel game, and I was just falling with a peach colored background, and I just got creeped out.
The weird part about it is, I'm just fine watching someone else clip.
Both same

ok
8:52 "there really isn't a whole lot to see out here" is the pun intended? See? Sea? Sea side kingdom and water? Coincidence? I think not! 😁
very punny lol
But that's just a theory
A GAME THEORY
I agree
I feel like the out of bounds fear comes from the fear of being stranded. It may have something to do with how the music fades out and how things start to render out.
yeah thats probably right
Out of bounds phobia? Totally. Makes my spine crawl...
when I go into the deep woods in the wooded kingdom I get anxiety
when I was like 9 I had a toy story 3 game on the wii and there was this train level I fell out of bounds in. It went white and I fell for like 3 minutes. Now at that point I was already scared shitless cause I was 9 but then it teleported me back up and I got literally stuck in an prop and it started to glitch out.

I have that exact same fear, but I somewhat enjoy that fear. I can't help, but keep doing it, no matter how much it is scaring me.
you know there's a mod to remove those invisible walls eh?
Really, please try it again when the invisible walls are removed or with a newer version of the mod or anything that make it possible to get closer!!!!!
13:55 nah Bowser just farted
Great video! I liked the mushroom kingdom the most.
I do have that phobia I feel like something will come out of the darkness and eat me
Yeah I have that kinda creepy feeling when I go outta bounds too lol
I agree
Same I didn't know someone had the same fear as me. BTW falling out of bounds in Mirrors Edge is terrifying
Aysa Garcia same
Yeah I'm afraid of OOB as well
Is the Rock Solid? Let’s see, is it Solid?!!
Queue Ali-A intro
Yes we saw the video
I also had that phobia, but more when I'm falling endlessly into the ocean, like in GTA 5
Yeahhhhh, thats so strange dude, i have this strange phobia that i cant go to gta 5 ocean, cause im scared
I agree
There's already a no collision mod, right? Also, you can just change mode instead of reloading saves :p
kool

R/woooosh, Its the whole sense of the comment, i know he wont notice me, im just seeing who is actually so dumb to respond like that
Yea I have that same sort of anxiety/fear when I go out of bounds. It’s cause there’s just endless nothing and it’s disturbing.
I also have that fear. I feel like I'm falling forever and it's a lot like the emptiness of space and stuff. (I know that this is poorly worded but you get the idea.)
Yeah I had no idea what I was talking about. At least you're not hating. Thank you for being a good person.
You don't have to change the file if you fall, just change to assist mode
Imagine if there was a power moon all the way out there.
16:06
Yes I have that out of bounds anxiety as well
Imagine jumping from cap kingdom to cascade kingdom
I agree
Yes I very much do. I was always terrified of running into the fabled out of bounds fairy in OOT
8:52 Not a lot to “sea” out here
Thanks man- I've always wanted to know what was out there!
same i have that same phobia especially when u get outside the skybox and its just a solid color or pitch black
Thanks so much for making this video!! You solved so many mysterious I had with the backgrounds in Super Mario Odyessy and stuff! Yay!
When you can see something from one side but not from the other it's called "back-faced culling"
Yes, yes, yes,4hanks so much I asked so many times for this and now you made a video on it.I am so exited!!!!!!!
6:10 The cheep cheep glitch breaks out of there
honestly subnautica's out of bounds or "dead zone/void" really scares me. it technically isn't out of bounds, but the ocean floor drops off and all you are left with is an infinite sea of nothing but micro organisms and giant glowing sea serpents.
I have the same phobia! Idk what it is about oob in games that’s so terrifying to me. Maybe it’s a fear of the unknown? Who knows
I have it too
Me 3...I think
Same...
Maybe its a fear of being stuck there
I have the same fear
Its weird idk why I'm scared of oob
i actually have that fear of out of bounds,too, its really odd
You can known if a platform is solid or not.
If its not, you cant see your shadow.
If it is, you see your shadow.
12:22
Sometimes objects without collision can have shadows
I have the same phobia. I think with me it's because there's nothing out of the boundaries and that sense of nothingness really can be unsettling. Topped with the level music fading out adds to the anxiety that this isn't right.
Same
It seems like I'm not the only one who feels unsafe everytime i go out of bounds
In version two of the mod it removes the invisible walls.
I get scared about the same stuff man. It just creeps me out kinda
I also have that weird phobia. And the scariest thing is falling through the ground.
Just found ur channel and I like this vid. I also have that phobia of going out of bounds in games for some reason, but I also have a phobia of the skyboxes in Mario Galaxy and Mario Galaxy 2 because idk

Inkling Boy, Me too?!
I have a phobia of being out of bounds in videogames too
Out of bounds and unfinished levels creep me out too
I have that out of bounds fear too I thought I was the only one
Why isn't there a mod to exploit invisible walls.
Cinder Fall there is
Goblinlight104 so why doesn't he use it?
Cinder Fall on the last vid he did.
Cinder Fall it doesn’t work with old mods.
you shouldve groundpounded in wooded to see if you wouldve gone to the deep woods
Yeah dude I have that same feeling! I thought I was the only one!
Its weird. I have the same "fear' of going out of bounds. Just seeing the screen flicker black from out of bounds makes me shiver. it's so strange.
Rhodyn yeah me too... weird...
How does he run was fast
Me too...I guess I just don't like seeing such a beautiful and well-made game have those paper thin walls and whatnot.
I have always wanted to see this!
Isn't there a newer version of the mod that removes invisible walls?
I’d get scared to it’s like if I’m playing a game where my character is underwater like subnautica or sea of thieves, not scary but just makes you uneasy

11:52 I KNOW RIGHT
Try to make it to the spynx and car ships that you get moons from
Going out of bounds in Legend of Zelda Breath Of The Wild was cool as first, but then the nonsensical world I was in eventually got to me. It just felt empty.
The mod should be updated so the invisible walls could be removed and the moon jump could be controlled like the one in SM64.....
In the cap kingdom if you go to top hat tower you can see the cascade kingdom
Mario 8bit really? Thats awesome
Henry S yeah! Try it
Thanks for making this! The metro kingdom background stuff is so impressive

Either that or Wario’s. They really fit.
Wow, so you're telling me that all that stuff that we're not supposed to step on... AREN'T SOLID?

Weird phobia. Especially for someone that does stuff like this. Glad you make these anyway!
My favs kingdoms were actually the cloud and ruined kingdoms, they could have been a lot better than just battle arenas
Same here
11:43 Actually the reason for that is you probably have kenophobia which is the fear of empty spaces or voids.
I have kenophbia too
whenever i see glitched textures or going out of bounds i swear my body just shakes for some reason and idk why
I have it, but with the metro kingdom background, those skyscrapers, no one is there, just low poly cars, it fells so lonely, but specially the tallest skyscraper in the background causes me the keno phobia or something indescribable. I dreamed of going there and that it was solid ground
Sometimes, going out of bounds and glitches make me feel hacked....
why
Yeah it always spooks me when I accidentally go out of bounds in gmod
Same for some reason when backgrounds glitch out like that it scares me for some reason
Yeah same, for me it makes the out of bounds phobia thing 10x worse and I get an instant jolt of fear
I both hate and love the ruined kingdom. It just screams lost potential.
Oh, wait wait wait, can you maybe try it out with the no collision mod again? That would be awesome, please do it!!!
Oh man thats gonna be interesting
