Gunslingerpro2009 is most original gmod arg because he's both the protagonist and antagonist.
Yeah that one's pretty well made.
Correction. Hes the protagonist thats a villian. Antagonist is a character against the protagonist. They dont have to be evil plus you cant be a protagonist and a antagonist at the same time.
@Mrcrazy123 the spy main
the creator of Gunslingerpro probably smiled after seeing this
@@oddikan9631 gunslingerpro is implied to serve as an antagonist in the unnamed video with only a date, which is told from the perspective of the spycrab
Kinda disappointed by the use of Heartaches and It's just a burning memory. I wish people could come up with new ways to express confusion/dementia instead of just slapping Caretaker's music onto it.
Tbh - same. If we take that out, the rest of the story is kinda interesting. But oh well, the author/Gramps has to follow trends and whatnot.
once again the 14 year old's on tiktok ruin a song.
@@007megaoof I never knew there was a connection between EATEOT and Tiktok
@@counterfeit1148 me neither, nor do I know why such an experimental album is super popular with that demographic
caretaker is kinda boring
The version of heartaches they use is actually a fan version that slowly goes in and out of heartaches and the version of heartaches in The Caretaker, I personally think it made it feel more cheesy but I digress
it would be slightly better if he used any other song from the caretaker aside from the burning memory one
@@mikadosannoji553 yeah like a lot of the other stage 1 songs would work better
@@mikadosannoji553 like childishly fresh eyes.
Heartaches wasn’t originally by the caretaker it’s from a dude back in the 30s named al bowlly
@@Pinkblobperson we know that
This reminds me of the story of a artist that had dementia he would always draw self-portraits every year they would cloudy and cloudier and weirder it just became a Big Blob
I remember seeing some of the pictures. It was sad.
yeha, it demonstrates just how bad dementia is
@@luhwizz ya thats him
That's actually what Everywhere at the end of time is base off of
well that's incredibly unsettling!
The topic has been revealed the moment that music started.
The weird thing is, I remember finding the Gaming Gramps channel linked in a TH-cam comment chain around the time the first videos were uploaded. “Tommy” replied to someone saying something like “Hi guys, my name is Tommy, I’m 65 and I spend my time making Garry’s Mod videos” and added a link to his channel. I had no idea it was an ARG, I thought it was just an old man making GMod videos for fun.
That's because it isn't an ARG; there's no gameplay.
@@ashtongiertz8728 it's a webseries
everyone upon seeing an elderly man and hearing the song heartaches -_-
wow spooky
I instantly thought that this was gonna be about him losing his memory.
@@Gherkins it’s all about psychological problems, the man here is suffering from dementia, now the music gets even more fucked up the more you get deeper into the album, it signifies that your dementia is growing stronger.
*kid walks in with 1920s music*
"How do you do fellow old people?"
Al Bowly is from the 1920's. A 65 year old man would not have listened to that song growing up lmao. He would have been in his 20's in the 80's...
With the amount of internet horror using everywhere at the end of time, it just becomes somewhat funny. Why would some 65 year old man play Garry’s mod, and pick Everywhere at the end of time as the background music? It ruins my immersion if I’m being honest.
Sure, in this it’s there favorite song but I still don’t like it’s overuse as “general purpose creepy song” when everywhere at the end of time already had a story to it, seeing it repurposed so often detracts from the original works value.
That track is overused, I agree. The channel/Tommy could have used some other way to show the "dementia" or "memory loss" element.
I personally would've had Tommy accidentally reveal that he made the channel for the sake of his grandson, a dead boy who loved Garry's Mod, but he goes insane and loses clarity before finally letting go of this denial and thanking everyone for sticking around.
Its more unique then the other ones, also the style is way better then "look at me im going arround a place playing and then a low poly man appears" style
Hell it's better than gunslingerpro
@@Desepted not at all
@@Desepted Gunslingerpro is the best one so far, this one is way cheesier.
@Plague doctor you can't blame that on then original lmao
most args are like "oh no scary dark figure" or now just like "oh no the ragdolls are alive" this is the only arg that hasnt been copied 1 million times
the empty text bubbles might be because tommy doesn’t remember what they said
instantly taken out of the experience when heartaches played. there's tons of other old-ish songs people can use in their series regarding content like this, but it's always heartaches or some form of just a burning memory and it's become so grating at this point
And he’s 65, it’s a 90 year old song
@@West_Coast_Gang precisely.
Something to note is that a symptom of dementia is seeing a golden border around your vision, giving the effect of a halo. I believe this is what the halos in some of the videos is supposed to be conveying.
Did you just make that up? There’s nothing saying you have a “golden border” around your vision. And only lewy body dementia has hallucinations
@@_motho_ This is something I've heard. If it's not true then, well, sorry
I just read this comment and the halo showed up on my screen
@@Dantomer you forgor💀
Personally, I think they should have stuck with the initial "something happened irl while I was recording" idea, instead of this. Maybe they could've even used Gmod chat to communicate, like typing "Hello youtube, my grandson showed me this game" etc to talk to the audience, since there's no way he'd know how to use camera and pose tools. Then, as the videos progress, you could have him start to forget things like what key opens chat, accidentally opening team chat instead, or maybe even console, and just resorting to typing in that instead, with the constant "unknown command" responding back to everything he says, only further adding to the sense of confusion being implied irl, until he's forgotten how to even launch the game, and decides to just communicate via notepad instead. Still wouldn't explain how he'd manage to record and upload the videos, but it'd sure as hell make more sense than randomly inserting split-second creepy images every now and then.
agreed had the same thought would be a much better arg
Honestely this is very low quality for how these things usually go
i had an idea for an ARG once that was more about the meta real life happenings of a brother uploading his older brothers old youtube videos post mortem and slowly uncovering his declining mental state and the reasons behind it, but its honestly really hard to make a story like that thats both immersive and engaging. like, theres a lot that goes into it and a lot will get missed before people start realizing its an ARG. like for example, there was supposed to be a part where the older brother makes a gmod video to celebrate his 21st birthday, then laments in the description about being unable to drink due to medication(sorta as a way to subtly narrow down what problems this guy has that need medicating), but all of that would be wasted effort if someone doesnt even bother to read the description. tho with my idea i was kinda backed into a corner where the videos at the start had to be completely normal gmod videos with a believable level of polish for some depressed 20 year old to have made back in roughly 2010 or 2011.
I don't like icebergs. They're all wet, and cold, and slippery. And bigger than they appear.
th-cam.com/video/ObpcGNCU944/w-d-xo.html
Gunslinger pro is really different from the other args.
Yup. Richter Overtime has already covered that one.
th-cam.com/video/lop6ZURPzd8/w-d-xo.html
@@RadiationHazardYT yeah I've already checked it out
Badwater2009 is gunslinger but more evil
@@awesomesauceTN234 Gunslinger's actions are more messed up.
H3lp m3 pl32s3
If I hear that damn music again I’m going to give myself dementia just so I can forget it.
This would be so much cooler if it didnt beat you over the head with obvious hints at the story and left it up to the symbolism
Yeah true.
I swear to god if this is about everywhere at the end of time
Edit:I CANT GET AWAY FROM IT I SWEAR
Tiktok ruined the album
Dread It, Run from it, Dementia still arrives....
@@tennisthelegend we all ruined the album by memeing it to death.
I think ”this sounds different” might mean he accidently choose it’s just a burning memory when he searched for heartaches. He doesn’t quite notice the difference, but knows something is off.
Gaming Gramps reminds me of 2006 TH-cam.
It reminds me of her..who's her?
Probably the simple editing style
when the music stopped and the guy looked at the camera was the only time a gmod arg actually scared me
yeah that shit was spooky as hell, it got me REAL GOOD
08:29 if anyone wants to know
The caretaker music make me cringe that kinda edgy and overused that too bad
The best gmod ARG I've seen so far is gunslinger pro because of the originality of the story and the details of the video (the use of kinect for more realistic animation is really creative)
you are wrong boi
@@randomjtf2op no u
Classic GM Videos and GunslingerPro are the best ARGS. Classic GM has an spooky feeling,but GunslingerPro lets you know that something is wrong(sorry for my bad eng)
@@silvergaming3953 my favorite gmod ARG are gunslingerpro2009 and badwatervideos2009
And now we have Badwaters guy!
"I don't like icebergs"
You're legit the first person I've ever heard say that lol
Honestly I don't like'em either. They get a little... What's the word? Excess?
Not sure on the right choice of words, but something about them just feels too overdone and far from the truth to seem enjoyable for me.
"childhood trauma iceberg" for example. Five Nights At Freddy's? Yeah no shit that'll give you trauma as a kid.
Feel free to provide the right words for what I'm trying to say.
There is at least one sea captain who has probably said that as well
@@BierBart12 More than one
when the trend of garry's mod ARG started i have no clue but they are awsome (and you are two)
Something about the ragdolls lifeless floating while Heartaches plays gives me a scary feeling
The 1 dislike on this video was made by the random shadow person that appears in most ARGs
Classic GM: I'm the scariest ARG!
GMod 9 Fan: No I am!
Gunslingerpro2009: *hah these losers*
There’s 4 now
Oh god there’s more than one!
And his friends
one dislike for every arg he appears in
Gaming Gramps aka "We do a significant amount of trolling". What really bothers me is how popular memes with dementia and memory loss (especially trollface) are getting.
Anyway, what a fascinating video, you really put a lot of effort in this, great job!
Thank you!
Trollface is an old meme from the 2000s and people have grown up with new memes so people will forget that it existed so it and dementia go together like ham and cheese.
@@unoriginalperson72 ham and cheese are terrible
ham and potatoes are another matter
@@sneed2600 I think he meant Mac and cheese
my heart dropped when the black guy stares at me.
I’ve liked Al Bowlly’s music before the Caretaker, and seeing people hear his music and go HAHAHA CARETAKER frustrates me to no end LMAO
When I heard the Al Bowlly song my heart plummeted into the ground so hard it looked like killing a boomer from left 4 dead
The tiger is the protagonist. he's just watching this guy named Tommy.
Lol, interesting theory
@@RadiationHazardYT i know right
you should check out "gmod arg but the player has enough of the shadow man's crap"
Lol yeah I've seen that one.
That video is a masterpiece, no questions asked.
As other people think, I feel it’s just a burning memory is overused to talk about dementia but imagine if gaming gramps mistook it’s just a burning memory for heartaches
I remenber seeing hello youtube on r/gmod and not realising something was wrong
I actually like this ARG and see a lot of people ragging on it for the Al Bowlly music. I consider that to just be a shaky first step into the type of media this person wants to make and am fully willing to give it a chance since it's different than the other GMod ARGs by virtue of not strictly being gameplay-based. And also not including the dark room from gm_construct (or gm_construct at all). Even gunslingerpro2009 included the dark room.
There seems to be more mystery than the whole "dementia lol" angle suggests. I noticed that when Dave (the black guy) talks, he's the only one with balloons that fade in and out smoothly while everyone else's cuts in. There's really something up with him in particular that screams "this isn't just some dementia story".
Something I noticed but didn't see you mentioned about the "Tommy takes his wife to work" video is how when he drops off his wife the model for the wife also changes to a different model suggesting he's forgetting even whst model he assigned to his wife.
i just got finished watching stellarr 1's video about gmod ARGs, sick video!
I've not been a fan of the recent trend of these "horror" things about dementia set to the sound of everywhere at the end of time. It's not horror, not even a kind of psychological horror based in the reality of dementia, it's just turning a very real illness into a trend. It's like if one were to make a "horror" series about someone with cancer just getting cancer and getting worse over time. It's all representational, not allegorical. The game "Perfect Vermin" is a good example of an allegorical story based on cancer, but things like these seem much more like just "ooooooh look at this guy forgetting stuuuuuuff ooooOOoooh!" Personally, I find these things to be more disrespectful than anything. Not to imply that something like this is as disrespectful as, say, those Friday Night Funkin folks who made a "dementia AU" or anything, but I feel like, in general, attempting to base one's horror point in reality to the extent that these are is a bit insensitive.
Anyway, that's not to say that Gaming Gramps is only that, it looks like there actually IS more stuff going on than what meets the eye. While I was watching this, I thought of something interesting to note: We see Tommy die, definitively. By comparison, we never actually see the same fate happen to the wife. Even moreso, we see that the identity of Tommy keeps getting confused. Usually, he's Male_07. Sometimes, he's male_09. Once, he transformed from male_01, specifically after his drowning scene. The wife, however, hasn't changed once. You'd think that if Tommy is suffering from dementia/memory loss, and even mentions that he's struggling to remember her name, it would be the wife who's face would be getting mixed up. What if "Gaming Gramps" isn't a "gramps" at all? What if the entire channel is being run by the wife as a way to try to preserve her memory of her husband? What if the name of the channel and the main character and the grandpa in the profile photo are all there so that she can try to force herself to remember her husband's name and face after her husband passed away? It's not incredibly likely, sure, but I think it's something to think about.
Anyway, an excellent video like always, radhaz! Keep up the good work!
Thank you Wolfcl0ck. And great points too. Most interesting one is looking at it from the perspective of the wife. I never thought about that. It just might be like that. Seeing how the profile has Gramps' pfp might allude to the point that the wife has it up in remembrance.
I have mental health issues myself, but too be honest. I never find these to be disrespectful.
Maybe it’s just me, I just don’t let it affect me, because it doesn’t it. It’s just a horror series based around an old man with dementia.
I have OCD, so when ever I saw someone makes jokes or based around a story about the disorder, I really don’t care. I just see that it’s not worth my time.
I guess that just me, but if you disagree otherwise, that’s okay! Your opinions are yours.
it remixes of songs that later span for hours distorting based on time kirby seen the shinnings ending not that special in my opinion the songs themselves are very old and lyrically represent the message of whatever been applied by or was intended by kirby the caretaker
I’m just tired of hearing that damn song over and over.
Long
It's baffling that the GM behind this one proceeded to be the same guy behind TheSurvivorOfAll.
The music used could be from the video where it's Heartaches transitioning into EATEOT
8:27 i think my heart stopped for a second
covering Gmod! nice would like to see metro stalker and gmod more👌
And you instantly know what this whole thing is about by including Heartbreaks/Burning Memory. What I wouldn't done was include a bunch of music from the late 60's early 70's. Also, I would rarely have the guy delete props or sprint or do things that come second nature to people super familiar with videogames.
Their is not enough Gmod ARG Coverage, thanks for making this video.
Another good GMod ARG with a unique twist is gunslingerpro2009
Yeah I've seen that one. It's pretty good.
gaming gramps actually posted on the gmod sub and acted like some dude who got into gmod
Things rad failed to mention (in no particular order) :
1) at 2:14 the gman balloon is the first prop Tommy spawns
2) at 5:11 the guy did jump off the building but you can see him in the foreground. Also the characters models constantly change everytime the scene switches maybe hinting that Tommy doesn't remember the faces of the people around him or himself
3) at 7:40 a black version of the gman balloon appears for a split second behind the wife and at 7:48 you can see the same black balloon in the window for a single frame. At the end the wife is replaced by the mossman balloon but coloured black. So this could mean that the gman balloon represents Tommy and the mossman balloon represents his wife
4) at 7:53 if you couldn't tell the text says "I can't remember where I put my keys"
5) at 8:01 Tommy's wife disappears as the scene changes
6) at 12:04 the wife's text is coloured gray instead of being black (not really a big deal but just something to point out)
7) 12:19 isn't it a bit odd that the "friend" just happened to have a bit of meat to pacify the tiger after Tommy fell into the water?
as soon as i heard the caretaker music, i already knew what this arg was gonna be about and it broke it for me.
At the end of the last video there is a moment where you can hear A1 from The Carebear- Everywhere In The Beginning Of Nowhere (sry for my bad english and great video btw)
Normaly a Gmod arg isnt scary
However one about dementia is terrifying
The game cant hurt you but mental illness can strike at any time
Whilst heartaches is cheesy because “haha burning memory caretaker” but it slaps
Theres another good arg in my opinion
Gunslinger pro 2009
It's a Garry's mod arg that's all I'm saying
Yup I've seen that one. It's pretty good.
Thanks, TH-cam algorithm for introducing me to this awesome lad.
May Monke be with you.
Thank you Lord Monke :)
Thank YOU
It’s pretty neat that you used Big City fog in the background.
This isn’t really related but there is a Silent Hill version of the Big City map with a lot of gritty and broken decals and a few dialog cues to make it seem like there’s a bit of story revolving around the map. Loved spawning Silent Hill monsters around and trying to traverse from one side of the city to the other whilst trying to either avoid or engage said monsters.
I really appreciate showing this ARG to more people, sadly I do think there wasn't much in depth and a lot of info was glossed over or missed in this video.
but hopefully this will get people to post some more content on this channel
Indeed, this ARG is a interesting one, also cant wait for more developments on the story :D
Lesss gooo another video and its covering args.
Based
Been watching since 1K Thanks for keeping up the good work!
I like the added touch of some speech bubbles being empty. Like the guy forgot to add text, a contributing factor to him having dementia
Gmod ARG's be like : haha so good day lets play something (shadow man , show's him self)lets go camping(shadow arg man dissapears)haha what a fun day! , lets some sleep , (teleports to the bed) sleep time!
Thank goodness this video is up, looks like the arg sadly passed, but I have memory issues because of several different things (not as bad as dementia obv) and had a nightmare about this last night! Specifically the gman balloon haunting me and telling me important things that I'd forget (my first cat, who ended up so bonded to me that he was like a son, how to do makeup, my friendships, my life) and telling me I'd fail
Dang, I wish you'll be better.
when i heard heartaches my fucking heart sank lol
You could say you got a....
*H E A R T A C H E ?*
@@unoriginalperson72 idk why i laugh at this
Scares the fuck out of m
9:20 - 9:30
The shadow and the thing looking at the wife from the corner may be the gman balloon seen earlier in the Beer episode.
these videos have a sort of charm to them, even if they're fake, kinda like showing your grandparent something modern, has the same feeling as watching a child play with something for the first time before falling in love with it.
This just makes me want to do a dementia-themed ARG just to do it justice. It’s a great idea and it could have been super cool if it was done more subtle
this is just nice. a old person having fun in gmod
but something weird happens
The song he used is an edited version of heartaches called "Heartaches but it shifts to it's just a burning memory" I believe.
Everyone gangster until the video starts playing "Heartaches"
Iceberg video would be rlly cool bro btw love ur videos m8.
This reminds me of watching weird experimental short films on the PBS channel when I was young.
Just some college film student making some little quirky film for class.
I suspect the channel isn't an actual older gamer. It's someone making a strange film work.
BadwaterVideos2009 Is probably my favorite GMod ARG Because Its more focused on mystery then horror
Wow, I didn’t know about this one at all! I needa learn how to look better or something. Great video!
Thank you! I checked out your video on the topic as well (couldn't watch all of it tho). It's very well made :)
7K already? I found you at around 900-1K! Congratulations on growing so fast!
Thank you!
everytime i see a Radiation Hazard notification my day gets 100% better

@@RadiationHazardYT also, i have played a 2 mods called lamda wars, and entropy 0, the frist one is a real time strategy game like civilazitions, but half life themed, the other you play as a metrocop that was got stuck on city 10, a city infested with zombies, nice mods you should give them a try
the song is also very high pitched and used at the end of "disorted trumpets" from hl2
Man of course they added the DEMENTIA music
Congrats on 7k, been around since about 600-900
Thank you my man

I was thinking on doing a documentary on Gaming Gramps. Gave up before I even finished the script. I was hoping that someone else would cover this whole channel, and to my surprise..
I love gmod Args, Nice video btw :)
Thank you!
everytime i hear this song, it hurts me mentally. also with the fact that the old man has memory problems in this video makes it even more depressing. im gonna go watch some memes after this.
Man, this is real ironic, I just watched 2 videos on Gmod ARG's this week
like this one the best tho :)
other than “oooo spooky shadow figure” and the overusage of the split second imagery, its pretty interesting ngl
0:51 "There's already countless videos about Gmod ARGs"
*Proceeds to show two videos*
honestly iceberg sorta things are great but it really seems like theyre all either great or decent at best, really depends on the person researching and reading it and how much the creators know what an iceberg is or should be
Excellent analysis! Great video.
7:50 most people at the early stages of Alzheimer's forget small things like keys and codes this is another detail for him suffering from memory loss
Edit: most people with Alzheimer's are there favorite song before they die that's why he says the only song that plays is his favorite
I love these in-depth videos.
I need to ask, what is the song you use throughout the video? Its ro relaxing and genuinely puts me at peace
Yaay finaly! Thank you!
oh boy what a nice and interesting ARG! i wonder what song they will use :) :) :) :)
the song that was used in the "tommy's beer adventure" video and the rest after that was a remix of the original heartaches song, combining it with the "its just a burning memory" remix by the caretaker.
Not sure if I said it right so here is the video that created it th-cam.com/video/bPz1Yk91A2k/w-d-xo.html
Good job mate you are just too good
As soon as the music kicked in I went "ok cool the grandson is long gone"
but there's so many more obscure 1920s/30s songs used in EATEOT that are so much more terrifying
for example, George Olsen's "Lullaby of the Leaves" (or on Apple Music "Lullaby of The"), even in the original version, strikes me as unsettling
You should do more like this
Your great at it
plot twist: he just likes caretaker music and is just trying too make a cute and wholesome story but putting scary things too throw the players off
also i personally thing the black figure is either "woaa scary" or just one of the npcs for another shot soon
I really like the gunslingerpro2009 ARG
I enjoyed every seconds on this video
Something you might not of heard is the music having more reverb, at some points, and there are some weird audio effects also.
