Theory: AVGN (The Nerd) is Euseph's son who is a survivor of his encounter with V.A.L. and the reason why The Nerd see a lot of characters is because V.A.L. made him have schizoprenia and the remedy to fix that said schizoprenia is drinking Rolling Rock since his dad drank a lot of Rolling Rock. Anything that isn't Rolling Rock will not worked. The Nerd is angry all the time might be the death of his father and now he all by himself.
@@cindycinnnabun Am I the only one confused by the dynamic at this point? Gabriel seemed like the younger nervous subordinate in Anomaly PSA (I'm surprised he was even at TeleBLUE in 1991 based on how young he seemed in 2000), but he was yelling at Donovan in Evidence Capture but at least that was 3 years later so he might have been promoted/grown a spine/etc.
@zurirobinson2749 trust me when I say Gabriel n Euseph changing as characters was always the intention, ik this is random but Breaking Bad is a huge inspiration writing-wise in the sense that, I wanna show the progression of how these characters got from point A to point B and change overtime. With that being said, the drunk-Euseph arc is gonna be FUN
god for some reason i can vividly imagine myself at like the age of 8 seeing the VAL face staring back at me at 4:19 on an old family CRT and being absolutely silently mortified
As terrifying as it is, it’s also funny to think that the reason why Val can make creepypasta’s a reality is because she’s reading the minds of those who’ve read them
The idea of something that can read your deepest fears and show them to you on TV is the scariest Sci-Fi concept I've ever heard. I've been having recurring nightmares for 20ish years (since I can remember) of a TV becoming corrupted to show me disturbing/violent content that I can't turn off or hide from. The part where it wouldn't let you back out of VAL triggered some deeply buried nightmares.
Okay, I watched it and it was great. Although Val scared me (again), and I wonder why it picked up AFV and nothing else? And I feel like Donovan must be up to something..or he just doesn’t care about his workers. Always fun to speculate.
This has got to be one of my favorite analog horror series. The unique 2000s cable aesthetic and semi-realistic circumstances make it stand out from others that dive straight into sci-fi or the fantastical. Plus, the use of the creepy "cockmongler" face feels like something some malicious 4chan-using technician or programmer would use for a malicious AI.
I KNOW RIGHT!?!!?! I COULDNT STOP LAUGHING AT IT. "BANG", "Please restart your TeleBlue receiver" Reminds me of when the youtuber DankPods punched a shitty mp3 player and it said "err" on its lcd
That America’s Funniest Home Videos moment gave me a feeling I can’t describe. When I was about 5, my family had a massive CRT television, and we used to watch AFV every night. Those times are when brought me to my life today where I have a fascination for old things like this. If only I knew who I would’ve been in the future.
This series has been becoming very intriguing for me since I found out about this a little earlier these past months. Hell, some of these vids even kept me up at night. I really love the work you do!! I'll be very excited to see more lore on this in the future!
I honestly feel too tech-illiterate at this point to comprehend what's supposed to be happening, but the 👏🏾 lore 👏🏾 is 👏🏾 building 👏🏾 baby The brain frequency reader changing as Euseph talks to Donovan is a great touch- Tele-Freq is reading his anger... is *this* why VAL went rogue, because her sentience came from scanning Euseph's brain and is encoded with his rage?! Did HE burn down the office?!? 😱 I feel like I'm experiencing FNAF all over again- we need our own Game Theory!
I think I posted the Dropbox on my Patreon/TH-cam a while back w the high quality PNGs (unless the link died which lmk), but I'll prolly also work on the Project VAL demo after Dev Logs so yall have something more interactive :)
Anyone else think that Euseph sounds like Homer from the earlier episodes of The Simpsons - specifically season 1 where his voice was noticeably a lot more gruff in contrast to how he sounds now?
The story is actually amazing. I'm all in for it. Plus, as a person named Gabriel, I'm taking my ass to Tele-Blue HQ and making sure that their promotional shit isn't radiating something bad. Hah. Get it?
There's an insane Reddit theory that VAL is the consciousness of his dead wife (?) I really want to know what his motivations are. He's the Purple Guy of WBRB at this point.
I’ve just noticed that there are beeps at the end of both of these tapes, beeps that sound very similar to a phone dialing. Perhaps this is some sort of number based code or even an ARG phone number?
Hey tapeworm, what are the specific components you use for your vhs transfers? (Just wondering so I could create the same liminality as in your videos) :)
That was initially the plan but production is a bit behind schedule :'/ Hopefully the next episode after this will drop in mid to late August, then with weekly episodes proceeding after
VAL-Mongler is back, babey
Return of the VAL-Mongler
Funny that you made it so that VAL can canonically generate backups
But I saw in a photo that you have a Teleblue, it's very large.
Where can I find it.
The full return of VAL-mongler
the brain frequency slightly changing when Euseph calls him "Donovan" is such a great touch lol

Crazy how you've been here since the start of the series lol
@TAPE_W0RM Well, not since the START start, but pretty early on. I think January or February of last year was when I first discovered it.
With the brain scan in the Cable UI video, I wonder if it changing faster represents intoxication considering Euseph is an alcoholic IIRC
@@basicallysnake Looking back on it, that's probably exactly what it is.
Imagine the feds busting down your door and demanding that you hand over your VCR immediately.

Pass the boof bro. It's too much
V.A.L can also be only calibrated using LJN's Roll 'n Rocker

I'm assuming AVGN changed his name from James Kramer to James Rolfe to distance himself from his dad and MacNeil Tech

So far I suspect that Donovan is Obsessed with the Virtual Analysis Line and wants to use it for power. Or he is just a psychopath. Possibly both.
There's an insane Reddit theory that VAL is the consciousness of his dead wife (?) I really want to know what his motivations are. He's the Purple Guy of WBRB at this point.
