i want someone to make a horror game with a horror title and everything, except there are absolutely no spooks and youre just wandering around in some old house
@@zach_neill But was [redacted] intended to be a horror? Or at least, was it the developers intention to spook the player? I don't feel like it was. If anything, it was meant to make you feel extremely uneasy, a feeling that the actual player character would have at the time given what you discover.
That's the whole point of horror and suspense. This is why games with a bunch of jump scares and an asset flip monster running after you all the time are so shitty, they just throw "spooky" stuff at you mindlessly.
SLinnemann Art It gets SUPER unscary when you figure out the game logic and the way it works. For example: When you’re “transported” to somewhere you don’t recognize (You can confirm where you are with a lighter, if it doesn’t work, you’re not in the house anymore and you’re safe to do whatever), your sanity will not decrease, hence, no one will come after you and you can’t die. That is, of course, unless you you walk STRAIGHT into a scripted event (ex: On entering room, spawn entity outside room). When you’re in the house (The version I played, at least), the entity doesn’t SPAWN until your sanity becomes “dangerously low” and the game literally tells you when it crosses that border! Things like this that are easy to figure out work against a horror game.
Atmospheric horror is the only true form of horror though. If your game is just shitty jumpscares then you're just riding between each big "spook" in an unconvincing environment
Lots of channels play up their reactions, especially to horror games, and I'm not saying that FH isn't guilty of that sometimes, but Adam has established that he's not a good enough actor to be faking his fear. It makes me so happy. Sorry Adam.
Man, seeing Adam scared is the best. He normally doesn't emote all that much, so seeing that stone face break given the slightest spook is hilarious. I love it. Torture Adam more pls.
During that bit, I thought she was saying "inspector de boosie", so now I imagine a tiny police inspector bumblebee wearing a tiny uniform whenever I hear it.
Ryan Snider Fuck me, the mythos has expanded exponentially thanks to your comment 😂 I’m pretty sure Elyse even stumbles and SAYS “Inspecto” at one point in that video so that shit is canon.
That Rahul figure behind the glass door... it's more effective than what I expected. It does not scare me, but it makes me... hyper aware for a few seconds at times.
I think these games would be scarier if the monster or ghost never turned up. Can you imagine playing hours of a game like this constantly waiting? As soon as you see the entity a few times they lose their impact, they just become another NPC like any other with a distinct look and set pathing. If you never find out what it is to lose then your mind is free to imagine the worst
The problem of that would be the replay value, and spoilers would ruin the game. Maybe sanity effects that change the environment, or monsters with randomized traits, to grant some semblance of anxiety and unpredictability.
Thomas Shelton but gone home wasn't really horror, it was commentary... it makes it more credible because you see it with your own two eyes, but it also fixes it; your brain stops running wild once you see what's chasing you. Imagination is the most important tool that good horror exploits
Chase Ong agree with you there, but I think the people who replay outlast or res vii are few and far between. Horror games, hell, even most horror movies, are a one-time experience. They get you the first time but never again. Unless we're talking about something like Hereditary, but that has rewatch value because of its themes, execution and symbolism
this feels like the sort of game where being well versed in horror tropes and popular protagonists could play against you, for example when Adam freaked out about the girl in the TV thinking it might come out like The Ring
The spooky breathing and james's 'she needs help' just killed me, i love everything about his 'man who does not believe in ghosts backseat-drives through a haunted house' sort of role. rip asthma ghost tho adam wouldn't help her
This seems like a pretty good spooky game. Some musical stings and a lot of tension, but no real reliance on cheap tricks or jumpscares. At least, so far. It has them, but it seems like most of them are there to enhance the atmosphere.
LOL! Will: First knock was "Oh, im here" Second knock: "ok somethings wrong ill come over." Me growing up in a house eerily similar to The Haunting of Hill House I dont think thats how a demonic spirit thinks.
A is for Adam
A is for Absolutely Terrified
B is for Bruce
B is for Brave
Haha damn. Definitely came here to leave a "A is for Adam, A is for Afraid" comment.
Well played, earlier commenter.
A for Adam
A for Adventurous
K is for Kovic
K is for Kuck
K is for Killmonger Was Right
Can someone let Rahul in please?
He's been standing out there for over 20 minutes now.
Is it Rahul? Thought it was Lawrence
Or, with the Psycho music playing, Rahul dressed as Lawrence?
but Rahul died 2 years ago...
Rahul's cannot enter a threshold without being invited.
you're not funny
Really liked Rahul's role in this video.
His best and most believable performance yet
Then just wait until Saturday
He deserves an award for his most stellar performance yet
brought me to tears
how much do you think FH paid him for this?
Funny how the sanity meter isn't a game mechanic but it Adam actual sanity.
Always remember: _B for Bruce, B for Brave_
I tell myself that every night before I go to bed.
B to blow
Adam is simultaneously a big man and a small boy when it comes to playing spooky games
James: "Flash her!"
Adam: *flashes her*
**Girl starts walking towards them**
James: "That was a bad move, I wouldn't have flashed her!"
Comedy gold.
Willems Philosophy 101
My commercial cut was dead center of this interaction and scared the absolute piss out of me
MAAAN this comment didnt age too well, lol
Adam + horror games = bliss
Renzo Lising bliss indeed
I see Rahul's busy practising for his upcoming role as a member of the Queen's Guard. Such an amazingly talented actor!
Good video but Turbid wasn't in it so i was wondering if he was having fun
If Turbid's not having fun this video's aint worth watching.
Turbad he wasn't part of the video
I hope this joke never dies lol
I can't sleep at night without knowing if Turbid is having fun.
Where did this joke come from?
18:25 "You gotta go in deeper"
James and Elyse proceed to look at each other
This videos title: "Watch Adam take a decade off his life".
this was so fucking scary and like nothing happened
i want someone to make a horror game with a horror title and everything, except there are absolutely no spooks and youre just wandering around in some old house
It exists. Spoilers:
Gone Home

+Zach Neill i literally played through that whole game thinking it was a full on horror game and waiting for something to happen

Shoutout to the gang who either reads comments instead of watching the video or covers up everything but the top right so they can't see any gameplay
I'm so proud of Adam for doing this, I know he hates these games so much. I would have NOPED out.
SLinnemann Art god i wanted to nope out of this video so much
SLinnemann Art It gets SUPER unscary when you figure out the game logic and the way it works. For example:

Same here. I would of left as soon as lights in the room were turnt off.
I connect SO much with Adam through this... I'm amazed he's willing to go through with this for the video, his sacrifice must be commended.
It's easier having friends I guarantee if Adam was alone he'd never make progress
I was the same with PT, I was only able to progress because I was playing with someone.
First time: yeah I’m here
Second time: What’s wrong? I’ll come over
What a kind ghost
If this game was in VR it could legit kill someone from cardiac arrest.
It's coming to vr later.
@@awesome9174 I'm fucking cum
conkerlive101 like, how? It’s so ducking generic for a horror game, it’s just a walking simulator with spoooooooky noises, it’s the same as any other.
Atmospheric horror is the only true form of horror though. If your game is just shitty jumpscares then you're just riding between each big "spook" in an unconvincing environment
I like how this is not just cheap jumpscares. Really cool atmosphere.
A nice twist would be its just a hallucinating drug addict burgling a house with no one home.
Patent that
It's more interesting than the actual end of the game.
19:58 best summary I've heard of Gone Home yet.
I'm hiding from the video in the comments
Mate, get on mobile... nowhere to hide :(
On mobile it’s perfect cause you get a small little screen while scrolling through videos.
Same!!!
This helps alot
I think it’s worse because there’s no big scare to release the tension for ages. I got too tense and had to retreat to the comments.
Lots of channels play up their reactions, especially to horror games, and I'm not saying that FH isn't guilty of that sometimes, but Adam has established that he's not a good enough actor to be faking his fear. It makes me so happy. Sorry Adam.
7:28 youve been gnomed.wmv

I’m gnot a gnoblin

3:01 aged hilariously holly shit

Stfu
@@chbuddah86 Jesus christ haha
😑😔
I love watching everyone else jump and James just smile.
Makes me laugh everytime
I love how AH has Geoff as their official wuss and Funhaus has Adam as theirs
Flash her, flash her
*flashes
Oh you shouldnt of flashed her! I wouldnt of done that!
Hahahaha
Man, seeing Adam scared is the best.
He normally doesn't emote all that much, so seeing that stone face break given the slightest spook is hilarious.
I love it. Torture Adam more pls.
Idk but the bit "Go open that door or are you too kojima for that ?" Made me laugh more than I should
I wait for October. Just for moments like this
that cutout is actually lawrence having taken a viagra that made his entire body stiff
This is an underrated comment haha
10:12 jump scare and Adam was the one that scared Bruce and Elyse
Yall watch out for Insecto de Boosie around those corners now
During that bit, I thought she was saying "inspector de boosie", so now I imagine a tiny police inspector bumblebee wearing a tiny uniform whenever I hear it.

Fuck me, the mythos has expanded exponentially thanks to your comment 😂

What video was this bit from? I forgot the title and can't remember
F1ame 1nfern0
It’s from the Guts and Glory Gameplay (part 2) which came out a few weeks ago
The way they tease me with Rahul is cruel af
At least my sweet brown sugar is locked for a video tomorrow
WinnieDasPoobah SWEET BROWN SUGAR
The fuck
THIS IS VERY OFFENSIVE TO ME AS A BAKER
That Rahul figure behind the glass door... it's more effective than what I expected. It does not scare me, but it makes me... hyper aware for a few seconds at times.
That is a lamp, Adam.
IT HAS FEET!
God damn it. I can't breath.
Rahul is very cool friend. He is willing to stand outside just so Funhaus can have a spooktastic ambiance for the video. Rahul Da MVP!
Wow, Rahul really killed it this video, he brought allot to the table!
Oh this video is just TOO good!
Was waiting for you guys to play this just for Adam's reaction
Is this the spooktober special? Where's vampire Joel?
Cliff racer the lord of vampires has higher priorities than spooktober. every day is spooktober for Joel, lord of the dance- i mean vampires
Cliff racer Dracoola
*I love when Adam plays scary games*

Play layers of fear then. It’s creepy but not scary :)
Sarah Hershey is that amnesia?
We want MOAR! More spooks for Adam!
Oi nah this game actually gave me the willys
I love willies

It took me 2 whole minutes to realize that wasn't a real person at the door and it was the Rahul cardboard cutout.
Finally, someone who actually uses all the lights switches.
I'm embarrassed by how immediately I recognized Rahul's silhouette.
Truly one of the most enjoyable lets plays they've done! I love scary Adam and Elyse
I miss these days

Rahul at the door made me so uncomfortable
P.s gnomes are terrifying as hell bro
Nothing helps my anxiety like a bottle of mystery pills in each hand.
I love their videos but I love whoever writes in their description box even more
20:34 That moment when I thought Lawrence had spent the entire session leaning against the door to the room just to mess with them.
the detail of hiring a murdered to stare at you tru a tinted glass door in the background really added a lot.
I spent most of the video hovering over the progress bar to see the preview images looking for jump scares.
I know its stressful Adam, but think of those SWEET SWEET VIEWS! I will watch every episode of this forever
YESSSS. God, I love October.
Thank you for this birthday gift Adam you're the best!
Every once in a while I come back just to watch 7:23 and it’s so fucking funny every time.
we need to get Adam and Geoff from AH play Horror games together, that would be one amazing video xDDD
this game know that "fear of the unknown" is the worst fear ever... really nice
I love this, and am enjoying it immensely so I'm commenting to simulate viewer engagement and bump the RUclips metrics
Fun fact: Nintendo owns the trademark to sanity meters in videogames from their game Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem.
What about Amnesia? I know its not quite a meter, but.
Best funhaus vids all year
12:20 elyse getting frightened is so adorbale lmao
8:32 look at Adams body language when they cut the footage
I need someone to make a comment with all the jump scares that happen
Bruce: Are you playing russian roulette?
Adam: I hope so
To this day I am haunted by James’s unending “or do you go-“
Madness
Send help
Adam + horror games = best funhaus videos.
I’ve watched a lot of people play horror games and Adams reaction is best for being truly scared 🤣
I need that to be a shirt "Not all ghosts are bad, some are Jesus" lol
Thank you Adam. I've had a bad day and you letting them put you through your version of hell made me smile
thank god and everything holy you're playing Visage, was waiting for you to get your hands on it
These gameplays always make me so anxious
@11:41 *"Not all ghosts are bad. Some are Jesus."*
"You have to go through the dark, thats life" sooooo so deep James
*Are you too Kojima enough?* The sass is strong on Elyse.
The spooky breathing and james's 'she needs help' just killed me, i love everything about his 'man who does not believe in ghosts backseat-drives through a haunted house' sort of role. rip asthma ghost tho adam wouldn't help her
I love Adam playing horror games
What is best in life? To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of Adam playing a scary game!
Horror-Haus: where we make Adam play scary games all month
Nothing makes me happier in October than seeing Adam get scared :D
Adam plus scary games equals Funhaus gold!
The image of adam hunched over, holding pill bottles akimbo puts a smile on my face.
I did okay watching Jacksepticeye play this but somehow watching you lot play made me super jumpy.
I want to hide small speakers in Adams home that plays scary sounds only when he is home alone
I still want "Not all ghosts are bad; Some are Jesus." on a shirt.
0:37 I always found this bruce bit as comedic
that candle coming out of nowhere scared the shit out of me 6:15
This seems like a pretty good spooky game. Some musical stings and a lot of tension, but no real reliance on cheap tricks or jumpscares. At least, so far. It has them, but it seems like most of them are there to enhance the atmosphere.
LOL!
Will: First knock was "Oh, im here"
Second knock: "ok somethings wrong ill come over."
Me growing up in a house eerily similar to The Haunting of Hill House I dont think thats how a demonic spirit thinks.
Making Adam play the spooky games is sheer brilliance.
I absolutely love Adam's inability to play scary games. It's so adorable!
you can tell Bruce is scared of gnomes. Thats the first thing he thought of
Rahul's best performance to date
