Ominous Positivity

Wanted to do a little test for some effects I downloaded, so I made this with my character; Devon! Also known as Methuselah or HD140283. For the text source, just google 'Ominous Positivity' and you should see the tumblr posts!

what I'd like to point out here is how well this ties in to Gigyas,
although I'm pretty sure unintentional, the song used aswell as the messages fit in with the themeing of Gigyas in Earthbound (now bare with me here, since I didn't complete the game, and I didn't even like it much, I just think this is cool)
you beat Gigyas by making him remember human comforting memories, in both games. He is practically a mindless husk that is defeated by guilt and human emotion ("you will be ok. you have no choice.") Gigyas technically won, but you reverse the time and get a better future (again, Earthbound is.. wacky) so, he did succeed. it was inevitable.

I like this analysis!

[@Pau-sp9yp]

The concept of endless happiness and lack of negativity treated like absolute horror is still untouched treasure

[@PotatoPatatoVonSpudsworth]

Read/watch Dungeon Meshi, then. It goes DEEP into that concept!

[@chalkbored]

THISS

*writes this down!
WRITING THIS DOWN! *
NO JOKE, THIS IS BRILLIANT! I’M ABSOLUTELY KEEPING THIS IN MIND FOR ALL MY PROJECTS!

[@user-mi7of3vt1f]

the Plurrals from Blox Cards (albeit not exactly what you're imagining)

[@4lexa_washere]

This is oddly terrifying as it is ironically comforting

[@chicofnaf7114]

I'm not sure if I should feel calm or terrified

[@4lexa_washere]

As someone with anxiety I’m more terrified than calm

[@drewo.127]

Both?

[@thatchillasian8924]

“Wow thanks, I really needed that today.”
*I hold out my hand for a high-five*
“…”
*I high-five my other hand*
“Yeah.”

[@Krill_Phil]

This is my favourite comment here lmao

[@dootdoodle569]

the fact that the character’s name is simply Devon makes this so much better

[@SpruceSapCandy]

This is strangely comforting. Thanks Volter!

[@Spongy654]

I am positively frightened. Thank you Devon very cool

[@lowqualityhuman_]

You will like the video.
You cannot stop it.

[@billnyetherussianspy1845]

I love the concept of: Horrorfying creature straight from (insert horror genre without humans as antagonist). But actually really nice or just josh from next door. This horror beast is also just a being like everything else and has no ill intent i would love a sitcom where it is everyday human life but one caracter is this unknowable horror and everyone is like:"thats Frank" and he is like:"Oh boy what a week it has been, wanna go play tennis?" In this deep, rough, inhuman but still understandable voice.

[@drewo.127]

Keeping this in mind for future projects!
I might use that gravely text to speech voice that kinda sounds like someone speaking with a talk box, but through a fan, into a vocoder mic, and it almost sounds like your ears are gonna bleed, but not to an intense degree!
You know that gravely robot voice?

[@jimmywings6377]

im getting some mixed signals here ...
fantastic animation!

[@TidalG57]

GORGEOUS!! Tis’ a nice message

[@svgaming263]

I needed this honestly

[@SirApasaurioReal]

I've been really sad these days, but after seeing this, i think i can keep going!

[@Not_a_Lott]

this is such a tonal shift from the your gonna be ok animation yet conveys the exact same message... ig we've come full circle

[@SebTheArtist]

I had a nightmare about this and when it looked at me the horboros king salmonoid scream played 💀

[@simpleststick]

That one crazy friend (aka me) when the bestie is feelin a little down:

[@jeffscrungle6179]

[@Doodle_Head]

This video actually helped me understand one of my own OCs too. Thx for that.
They had that same vibe but i couldn't put my finger on it

[@feudalkoopa1564]

This reminds me of Boisverts Take Care

[@DemoTheGreat]

The pessimists must be shaking in their boots by now...

Devon knows not what devon says…she is a fool

[@infinityzer054]

Oh wait, gotta remain gender neutral until conformation of entity

[@fudgen.a1249]

I think I have a video relating to the topic. Regardless, the idea sounds familiar.

[@tomasmichaels642]

Two questions: who is this character and when will you make their ARG

[@volterge1st]

If only I knew how to make ARGS 😅 By the way his short info is in the description!

[@tomasmichaels642]
