I’m first comment
Sweet
Ay
i was half expecting it to be raid shadow legends but even a being of darkness from the most foul pits of hell like yourself would never stoop to such levels
8w8 Mr spooky cat man please BEIINNFFFDEEEEE
When PB started playing a song on the keypad I thought it was megalovania for a second and that gave me visceral whiplash.
same hfhjfjk
Still sounds like megalovania in major
I think that was an intentional bait and switch
he had to have done it on purpose
Me to
I thought he was gonna play megalovania...
I thought the exact same thing
Dude I was so ready for that-
he did tho?
Same
I was so ready for that, because the first part of the song songs like the beginning.
"It was a good idea. It was just a flimsy chair and also my only chair."
Idk why but I found the delivery on that too funny.
Ikr? I LOVED the delivery. Also I loved the short pause between the flimsy chair part and the only chair part.
It’s interesting to see a slightly more comical ARG
yes
Frrr
In his last video, he says in the comments that they are going to let him adopt a cat. :)
thats nice
wholesome 100
cat moment
Yeah that seems nice , but the whole house has a lot of weird vibes , not so wholesome if I say so myself
Hmmm... I'm available >
woah hello this was made by me! thank you for covering it! i will have to watch it later because i am too nervous to watch it now lol.
Oh wow
Omg it's amazing to see you in the comments! You might not see this but in case you do...I had so much fun following along with PBhere. Its the first time I was early enough to really follow along with an ARG and I loved being a part of the little PBhere community. I still feel like we made a few mistakes, but I absolutely loved this ARG. Thanks for making it, and I hope you'll make more projects like this in the future.
all aboard the pinned comment bandwagon
@@rai1578 thank you!
*poggers!!!*
The sheer horror I felt as the PB man pressed the first few notes on the keypad and it sounded just like megalovania is unmatched by any piece of horror you've shown us yet
Well, it is TikTok.
“Zuckerburg trapped in a room with memory loss”
LMAO
*ranboo flashbacks* /lh
BAHAHAH
@@emo-kk4mc lol
I really like the tone and art direction of this. While the main character's face is simple, it moves like a filter placed over someone's real face. The expressions and casual tone of voice sell PB as a real person. The camera, in the form of the phone, moves realisticly (yet smoothly) as if the character was really holding the phone. It's as personal, empathetic, and casual as a real person would be.
Yeah you summed it up you have a way of words I can apretice
Bro the art style is straight ripped from the game " Going Under : Internships are Heck "
@@boozledbamboozeler3822 wtf they are not at all similar. do you also think dreamworks is ripping off of disney bc they both use computer animation
@@AlexaSmith no he's got a point, they both have a vet smooth and simplistic art style
@@AlexaSmith Wait no that's hilarious
I've never heard of Going Under but I love that analogy
Imagine scrolling through people dancing to music then *BOOM* existential dread :)
Thats how i found pbhere! (Except not dancing, i hate those videos, so instead art)
@@pigsby so your one of the good TikTokers I see 🤔
@@ZSpieg its actually pretty easy to get onto the "good" side of tiktok :)
@@pigsby yeah that algorithm is insanely powerful.
I have found so many args on tiktok, and most of them get really creative with the unlimited time they get
Like an arg about how the sky is gone and everyone is too, and one about being stuck in a storage place with infinite doors and entities stuck with them.
I actually love this outcome because it seems to convey that the audience and commenters cared more about PB as a character and protecting him, even in his limited lifespan, than they did about putting him in danger to try and hinder a larger evil. I think it speaks volumes about what a compelling character PB is and how well the creator used the medium to emphasize this kind of emotional connection.
I was thinking of this!
Larger catastrophes are hard for us to grasp but "a friend in danger" is a lot more compelling to an audience
PB's voice actor is solid, man.
they make the character feel so real, it’s very cool but also gives me a very uncanny feeling lol.
this is the first ARG i found on my own im weirdly proud of myself lmao
same here lmao
Me too
I found an "ARG" that turned out to be reuploads of actual snuff films 😀 on TH-cam 😀😀😀 can you feel my soul leaving my body?
I feel like a proud parent when I find a relatively unknown ARG blow up
You shouldn't.
1:22 “Audible has meditation and sleep offerings”
Who needs audible when we have your unnerving yet calming voice
I DEFINITLY haven't fallen asleep to his videos...
@@watergrowsifwatered8048 haha yeah TOTALLY didnt fall asleep to his videos last night...
Me? Fall asleep? Hahaha never... Hahahha
Ha
Haha
@@watergrowsifwatered8048 *flashback to when I left auto play on and fell asleep watching his videos, waking up to a video about why the earth is flat*
@@rayumbandismos4947 yeah, falling asleep is for losers! I haven’t slept in months, and I’ve never felt better!
A tiktok arg? Interesting, but god that art looking AMAZING!
I've been following some other in depth ARGs on TikTok such as There Is No Exit and Where is the Sky? but they're very interesting to say the least
@@therealtimelord_ wow I just looked at them thanks to you and just wow!
@@therealtimelord_ oh and amazing username
Was thinking the same thing.....
And a thing who can play who know clonation certain things in agenda we know so compliment
I never thought I'd be hearing the words "TikTok" and "ARG" in the same sentence. This is a strange surprise.
Welcome to the internet.
@@hey_this_is_a_handle Welcome to welcoming people to the internet.
And 3d that is what fux me up lol
It was inevitable lol.
Actually, I think that somebody already made one before. I'm pretty sure Reignbot covered it. Though I remember that series being that not well made.
There was a tiktok arg kinda like the sun vanished that blew the hell up with one video that got like 40mil plays sad no one covered it yet
it sounds like nick is saying "peepee here" and i cannot deal with it
Can't be unheard 😂
OMG STAHP
I have a feeling all the animations were made ahead of time and that there's alternate outcomes we haven't seen might never seen.
they were made the day before or the day of the upload!
Thank you so much for the shout out! It means so much to me especially as you are someone who I look up to in the ARG community.
I love this story and the character of PB as a whole. The side videos of him playing with the office chairs were so cute, and helped sell the sweet bubbly personality of this hapless clone
reminds me of an arg idea me and an old friend we had. (if someone sees this, feel free to go ahead and try it!)
so basically it’s a commentary channel, and when it started gaining traction we would do a “face reveal” where he does a Q&A but it progressively gets more and more personal as a “joke”. then, at the end of the video he takes off the mask he was wearing and come to find out he’s an animated character and he’s not real. then the rest of his videos are him trying to figure out his existence, we never got to far into it. but hey, if someone wants to do this, go for it. i’d love to see what y’all would do, i’m lazy and i have no motivation to do the idea
this sounds really cool! sadyou didnt continue it but it definitely sounds like an amazing idea
maybe if im older ill try it
I watched the YT collection.. PB pinned that says that he's allowed to get a cat...I don't think we are done with the ARG..I. for one, am VERY excited!!
I hope it isn't over just yet.
Credits just came out.
Cute little Easter egg: the tone PB plays to get out on the keypad is from Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Thought I was the only one to notice
so cool!! love that
Not at all
YES, MORE NIGHT MIND! OUR HOLY LORD AND SAVIOR!
YEESSS AHAHAHAHHA
*unholy
@@NightMind nice
@@NightMind unholy cat God 🐈⬛🙏
@@NightMind unholy Storyline
When you said "Four Past Midnight" I audibly gasped. That's my FAVORITE collection of his and whenever I bring it up nobody knows what I'm talking about! Neato.
SAME I was so happy! The Library Policeman especially gives me the heeby jeebies. An amazing collection
True story, I had a class in college where "Four Past Midnight" was one of the required texts. I think I was the only person in the class to have the book on day 1...and that's because it's one of the books I "borrowed" from my grandma when I was like 10 years old and (several years out of college) just haven't returned.
You're not the only one. I'm now afraid of planes, libraries, and Polaroid cameras.
My mom gave me that book when I was a lot younger.
Okay I just finished PB. As an animation nerd I LOVE that we have another fully animated ARG! I don’t think we’ve had one of these since CatGhost.
I NEED TO START THINKING BEFORE I POST! Help!! Idk if this is legitimate or unfiction related and I need back up. 😬
@spaghet Honestly it was a year ago that it posted that. Lol I think I stumbled apon some other account trying to do an ARG and I wasn't smart enough to complete the puzzles. It was like midnight too so I overreacted. Lol XD
Hey Niko its Roman, Lets go bowling.
W-why
@@314STL Just
... just go bowling he been wanting to for 8 years
Be my friend plz
@@mothmantim huh
This guy steeled my comment and now gets al the likes. Nice job bub
Oh, this is cool. It's like the evolution of those 'interactive webcomics' that people used to do on forums and imageboards!
My first thought was that this felt like early Homestuck-the responses to fan questions, the exploration of the space and trying to escape. It was kinda nice to have that throwback out of nowhwre
He looks like one of the D-Class
His uniform looks like the Volunteer Uniform from Bethesda's Prey
Me, who watched every video from pb: at last, my time has come
@Roktrum get. Fuckin. Ready.
Me too! It was great being there for when it happened
i remember seeing this acc while scrolling through tiktok and reading the comments like "wait. people seriously dont know this is an ARG?" it was a weird experience lol
what did they think it was, if not an arg??
@@zarsiw legit no clue. I think they thought it was some weird add or just a short film?
THE FIRST FOUR NOTES OF HIS KEYPAD SONG AAAAAAAAA
Whenever NM tells me I can watch it for myself, I'm like nooo. I need NM to hold my hand thru everything 🤣
6:52 homie I thought it was gonna turn into Megalovania
I got into the comments to see if I was the only one.
The 3D animation on the character seems kind of '90's era looking for me.
I just realized this ARG literally works like the start of Homestuck, lmao. Why must that _thing_ always haunt my brain
You sound like you broke into my house and tucking me into bed and then reading me a story, then jumping out the window with my nintendo switch and going to the bar to show it off.
Ooh this is either gonna be really interesting or really bad
It’s really interesting
This video wouldn't exist if it was really bad.
@@Strawtebby Nope
@@curtbert2121 Yeah, that's reasonable.
its tik tok they get scared over someone with a deep voice
Fun fact the body/head/mouth animation can actually be done real time with a newish iPhone and computer software.
I really love how Night Mind is committed to use his larger platform to shout-out smaller creators and make them seen
trying to figure out how to make my GPS have Night Mind's voice.
I love PB!! He truly is the perfect being
Edit: I also love The Tales from the Gas Station Audio books on Audible that’s so cool!
Oh yeah! This is the first ARG I participated in! Can't wait for another story from the creator!
honestly, PB was not at all what i expected.
i expected something confusing and unsettling but instead i got a friendly guy recording tiktoks
This was probably the first topic you covered that I was actually participating in since the beginning it was a good arg
Sameeee I'm always late to the game, it was nice to actually follow along with an ARG for once
there's a handful of ARG accounts I've run across over the years on TT, a lot are hit or miss beginners but ones that really go out of the box like this, even if shaky at times, is just so cool for the ARG scene to keep evolving🥺👏
Watching this in real time on tiktok was actually crazy. A great experience
I always giggle a bit at the idea of Tik Tok ARGs but the animation on this one is just SO COOL, I love it to bits!
Finally: The VTuber ARG
this arg had a discord server that followed along with the creator and had a Q&A after if you want the audio recording I can get it
Ah yeah usual day on tiktok dancing, loud music, tons of booba and swimsuits, red guy trapped in a facility.
wait what
I love this channel so much, I'm starting to develop a psychic connection. I literally just thought "I think Night Mind uploaded" and then checked my notifications to see this.
So excited to see you put out a video on PBhere. It was such a fun ARG to follow along with and take part in. Also, for anyone who doesn't have TikTok, the TH-cam account is still a great place to look for stuff regarding PBhere. There's also a lot of interesting discussion in the comments of the videos from while the ARG was running, and different people giving their theories on the meaning and lore of the world. I would definitely recommend taking a look through the comments if you have the time. There were a lot of interesting theories about it while it was running, and I'd have to imagine that there are even more now that it's finished.
I'm so honored to watch this story unfold from the very beginning. I love PB as a character, he's just the greatest :)
PBhere was such a cool project to take part in. As Loey Lane put it in her video (paraphrased), we have to live with the choice of the ending. It was *our choice*. I really enjoyed it, and I was eagerly awaiting your recap - thank you for this!
I found PBHere around 6 months ago so it's nice to see someone's talked about it
For a room with padded walls, PB's voice is drowning in reverb.
Finally someone does something on TikTok that’s not insanely cringy 😆
not true
@Roktrum 100%*
@@SnoppleWopple I mean maybe 95% for the few good people lol
Most of TikTok sucks, but you do sometimes find a couple hidden gems
@@JediPlays0309 there is a good car community on tiktok, lots of people that wanna help newbies learn but also, being the car community, a lot of toxic 12 year olds. So I guess there is some good things on tiktok
seeing you talk about pb made me really happy cause it one of the few args I was able to experience in real time and the only one I had been there from the start! anyways great video!
That story is terrifying! Oh my gosh I got chill when PB was just casually describing their cell and entrapment.
This is the only ARG I actually followed in real time. It was pretty interesting to see how this turned out
I remember when this first started. It was so much fun to be in the audience for this
it does kinda make me sad that we won’t be able to see the outcome if he deleted everything
Damn, dude, what a breath of fresh air! Convoluted stories have their place in the ARG scene, sure, but it's nice to find something that's so pleasant to experience. And the inclusion of exclusive content on Twitter and the website were really well executed; they didn't muddy the story or make the narrative hard to follow without seeing them. Audience influence is really hard to balance in a story with set plot points, but he did it so well.. like he didn't HAVE to respond to the person who asked if he could throw the chair, but he did - and without it being at the expense of the story. For real, his direction was SO good! Also, what amazing voice acting! So convincing that pink-skinned, square-pupiled PB feels more like a real person than humans who overdo their acting. And the subtlety between the two PBs is awesome. I could go on and on about the open-ended world building and the questions of morality.. The ending is really interesting because there's a sense of finality to our side of the story - we are left satisfied and not needing more - but you know that the story continues. Just absolutely amazing.
This is the first ARG I ever found early on and got to experience as it happened, and the moment I did I knew Nick would get his hands on it! Very excited to see the analysis :D
FINALLY! AN ARG I SAW BEFORE THE NIGHTMIND VIDEO!
I was a part of this experience, for like the first time ever. It was really neat
Omg I was waiting for you to cover this one!! I loved it, it was my favourite arg in a long time
That was such a good ARG! I’m glad you brought it to the channel, I can totally see PBhere being the de facto early-tiktok ARG, as more and more people will start their own.
A TikTok ARG...what a strange timeline we are living in
I find this arg so interesting! I'm so glad you covered it :)))
I’ve been waiting so long for you to start covering this, I’m so excited!!
Thank you Night Mind for all the videos you upload, they're truly great.
I remember first seeing this page show up on my tiktok and I was blown away
I'm never here this early I'm ready!
very grateful that i was convinced to watch the whole PBhere playlist- i found myself thinking it was too short because it was just soo good, too good. an excellent start into ARG’s imo, hopefully it pulls people in from all the platforms it spans
We love being super early for Night Mind! Great way to unwind after a busy school day

I just like when this stuff happens.
I was following PB day by day for a bit, but forgot about it after a month lol. Glad your doing a video about it!
Another great video Nick, thanks for the amazing work!!!!
PB almost did the right thing. He shouldn't have deleted the evidence, now he has to tell the world instead of hiding in his house
aight so i don't think anyone will see this but i found this really strange channel called "Classic GM Videos" which apparently is some old footage of gmod 9 that's being reuploaded to the channel. something really strange is happening in the videos and i think it's an arg or something.
when you mentioned Lore my heart went :-), i've been listening to them for about three years now
it's so nice to see a new video so soon after the previous one. I also love the work behind that animation of PB!! Gives you a new media to use for storytelling, which is really needed during this pandemic.
This series reminds me a lot of Andrew Hussie's MSPaint Adventures series, which were webcomics made to mimic old point and click adventure games and took input from the readers.
Yes a new videooooooo
Always good to see the ARG field expanding to new places! I'm so glad someone's finally tapped TikTok!
I enjoyed PBhere so much, followed it from the beginning. I really hope we can see more content like this in the future!
I didn't think that people who owned tik tok had knowledge of what an unfiction project even was
Theres anoter tiktok arg going on right now theres like 5 channels in it atm the first one i found was where_is_the_sky
Yeah! Been looking forward to this! I knew this would intrigue you! Fantastic way to use this app and I think more creators need to create ARGs
So glad you decided to cover this , as someone who was with it from the beginning this makes me happy
There is one Webseries on tik tok thats really interesting. @There_is_no_sky I have found that there is like 7 connected accounts. and It is really good. I think you should check it out lol
i saw these videos popping up on my fyp and it was awesome watching this story develop
I was really hoping you would do this one :3
Pb is right up your alley
*insert joke about tiktok*
I once discovered an ARG on fecalfunny where there was engraved messages in hardy stools.
As in, feces!?!?😂
I love audible. I've used it to listen to the whole john dies at the end series and its been fantastic
I love PB! It was so much fun watching and trying to figure out clues in real time with the community. Thank you @yatoimtop for creating such an amazing story!
