@@TA1JU I think because of my comment. I asked him “can you play without sounds?” I think he noticed my comment. Respect Insym! Deaf players VS hearing players 😀
The second ghost, the one we got wrong, was a very weird one. As soon as it came out of the basement, it's footsteps got muted (5:40). That's what fooled so many, including me.
First time hearing about the Wraith/Banshee teleport. Only five minutes in an already learning. Love your content, made my first journey into Phas a fun time, and you're making me super excited to dive back in for the new content after not having played in a year. Keep up the good stuff, Insym!
Contrary to popular belief, Banshee and Phantom don't *actually* teleport. They just roam towards their target, which can be observed through the use of motion sensors. Only Wraiths can full on teleport outside of ghost events.
Wraith teleports right on top of you (rare) Phantom roams to you (rare) Banshee roams to you (very often but only if you and the ghost are on the same floor) rare: maybe 0-3 times a game
Your viewers on Twitch and TH-cam have only gotten this good because of your upload frequency with this game and detailed explanations of every ghost in multiple scenarios. It's interesting seeing the students becoming as skilled as the teacher.
I think chat had trouble with thinking the Obake was a Myling is because of the skipped footsteps when it changes ghost model. As it was getting closer, it must have switched models because there was a second or 2 you couldn't hear them.
If anything this video shows how strong the sound effects are in this game... The fact that the ghost is this difficult to figure out without proper sounds should tell us something
I concur about the Wraith/ Banshee thing. When I'm bringing equipment into the house, I usually feel like Banshees are walking past me, travelling to where I was rather than where I am at that instant. Phantoms would be the same of course but just not as frequent, so I don't notice as much.
@@CarbonKnight9 well yes, but they can both move after the ability, it doesn't make a difference if a wraith happens to teleport to a spot where you were or with a banshee doing the same thing but by just walking.
I find it really comforting knowing that even a youtuber like Insym still gets scared of the ghosts sometimes - when I play the game I go into chihuahua mode and uncontrollably shake from fear lmfao
Regardless of how broken the multiplier is it really helps you learn how to pick through the ghosts. I was super bad at it now when I’m playing like professional or something I can usually tell what it is.
Insym: My son and I have been fans of yours now for a long time (Since before cursed item update) and we are trying to level on the weekends. This weekend we were struggling to get any evidence on like 3 ghosts in a row but the ghost would do some kind of behavior that we learned from you to identify them by. My favorite one was a Ridgeview ghost that I swore knocked on the bathroom window downstairs but all the activity was in the bathroom upstairs but it only did it ONCE so we were thinking wraith or banshee but then I remembered to check the activity board and it was a clear twins! I was so proud because we couldn't get jack from this ghost.
I love this challenge! It's very fun to participate in and I feel like I learn the most during this one. I am quite afraid of hunts in general, its hard for me to focus on hunt clues during hunts when I play myself, but this one is like I can learn and be "on the field" without dying/panicking.
The thing i like about phasmophobia its that everybody can be good at the game. Because to win at this game you need to know how the ghosts work so if you know enough about the game you can be good.
I think probably the best way to have "levels" mean something is instead of just using levels use milestones that give points you can use on something or if cosmetics just straight up give a cosmetic item. (just have an extra 15% or so points leftover after doing every milestone, so it's not too tedious.)
New generation Phasmo with Sym. Chat for Ears challenge. As good as ever. Jumpscares, panic and saltiness. So much fun.😅 And Hi Chat. Ultimately you did yourselves proud by Insym.😊
I watched (and participated) in the live stream, and this was one of my favorite challenges. I’m newer to Phasmo, so I’m not as fluent in each and every aspect of each ghost type… but I got a majority of them correct. Evidently, watching your ghost guides all day while I work pays off. 😂
Maybe a feature where things such as the ghost special affects (aside from speed) become more apparent slowly over time. Or revealed when evidence is found. Like after one evidence you can hear the ghost footsteps clearly not muffled etc. potentially?
Or a mode where multiple ghost inhabit one of the larger buildings, so you have to find the ghost area of building (like a segment of the building where the ghosts are scattered on opposite ends) and then determine the ghost type but because the ghosts can wander they interfere with each other and your evidence or listening to the ghost hunts if that makes sense?
I feel you hit the nail on the head in the first part of your argument and then lost it in the second half. Grinders will always find another way to grind, but with custom games the way they are it means a non-grinder can challenge themselves and be rewarded for it. Putting a hard cap on that removes that incentive and tells the grinders they just need to optimize for that cap.
They could make it where the sounds are very feint if you are I. Person, not impossible but hard, and the sound is amplified if you are wearing a headset. So someone in the truck can hear the footsteps and make calls that way.
I wish they add a custom difficulty which makes the ghost to show evidences of a different ghost than itself and you had to figure out both ghosts for example you get evidences of an onryo but the ghost is actually a yurei and you have fill both in your journal , that would be so cool because you get to use both your skills of gathering evidences and ghost abilities.
That sounds so cool!! So apart from the deceptive evidence the actual ghost would have to be figured out only be hunts and behaviour? (Also, would you have to align (definitely not the right wording) the right ghost with the evidence versus behaviour or just punch in the two choices and doesn't matter what aligns with what?)
@@lucinamillar1355 Yes, it's like playing both no evidence challenge and professional difficulty and you should be aligning the fake ghost and the actual ghost so that game understands that you actually figured them both out!
that Mare....you could tell because the ghost room was the garage until you turned on the light, It hunted from the dark. Mares go to the dark rooms if it's room is in light.
Love it! It is the same like deaf player playing without ears. I am deaf, but I am used it excpert - Deogen, because I can’t hear him, while I am hiding. Deogen said to me “oops, you are deaf - too easy to catch you”. lol
One way Ive seen other games try to encourage playing the game as intended instead of just a cheesy meta is to implement a streak system. Increased rewards the more times you do a task correctly in a row, reset streaks when you get it wrong. At the surface level it gives a risk/reward system for newer players: "Ghost is hunting, do we go back to try to keep the streak, but risk dying and losing our stuff". For higher level players it should make the meta for level grinding the hardest difficulty that you can do correctly every time to keep a streak going. Very surface level idea pitching here, but it works well for some other games.
There was a way to tell the so called “myling” was obake, it skipped a few steps, probably changed form, which might’ve caused confusion for not hearing the steps.
The thing with smudge sticks. It lasts 5, 6, 7 second, and if during this time you are get close enough with ghost, effect on ghost will lasts 5 seconds. You can burn smudge, wait a bit and on last second of it get closer to ghost to blind him for 5 sec. As I see it.
I love chat=ears challenge, i think it is more fun on big maps though, specifically high school and sunny meadows. The ability to hear is just SO massive on those big maps. Leads to some genuine eeriness
And here i am not even able to figure out what ghost it is, on Intermediate WITH Ears, Eyes, AND Starting Gear. i swear to God man. plus when it Hunts i die 90% of the time, even if i find a damn closet! i just don't know wtf im doing wrong.
'bout 45mins in and I feel like the best way to make the intended play style more rewarding than just spamming a hunt and figuring out the ghost as such could be adding value to discovering the actual evidence. Finding EMF5 for an EMF ghost, Ghost Writing, etc. Adding a check to the mission results for it. In fewer evidence runs the value for the single evidence provided could be increased to account for the missing one or two. So custom difficulties to a certain point would still be worth a sizeable chunk for their difficulty. For players who enjoy the randomness, could add a separate "Challenge mode" setup where players can hit randomize and get a fixed Money/Exp reward based on those randomized, unlisted settings that reset after the job. So say you hit random and get the worst possible (again unknown) outcome: Zero sanity, pills don't work, breaker broken, zero evidence and no monitors? That's a single run with absurd experience values if successful. This would give players a different experience just about every time, with appropriate/varying rewards. And with the settings hidden, players can't just hit reset until they get a primo setup for exp cheesing.
i saw a guy/girl in the chat speaking another language and the moderators gave him/her the chat rules, he/she said: "idc moderators" 🥶💀🗿 Edit: i think at 44:10 or smth Another Edit cuz why not: its at 44:53
i think you should be reqarded for getting the right ghost more times in a row, for example lets say you get one ghost: gold is multiplied by .5 you get 2 ghosts after another? Gold is 1x , get 3? you get 1.25x gold. would help encourage players to play well.
I think instead of nerfing the custom difficulty and high multiplier rewards, why not buff/balance the already existing difficulties? I think the reason why people are cheese grinding is because the rewards are so little. The exp required to level up just becomes so tedious in the later levels. Correct me if I'm wrong but like you said in this video, if the devs really want their players to actually play their game (in terms of getting the ghost correct thru collecting evidences and not primarily through hunts), why not make Professional difficulty the main source of getting rewards? Like maybe 5x reward or something for professional. Why Professional? Because, again emphasizing on the devs' wants, you can get all evidences there and you don't even need a hunt to get the ghost. What about Nightmare and Insanity? Well... emphasizing on the devs' wants again... yes you do get evidences but ultimately you actually have to figure out the ghost thru a hunt and that's not what they want right????
smudge description seems like it means the smudge lasts 5/6/7 seconds, if it affects the ghost, then the ghost is "disoriented for a few seconds", slowed for 5 seconds, or stunned for 5 seconds.
I actually don't want them to change the reward system. It's already taking an awfully long time for me to level up. Nerfing it would be incredibly bad for me. The only reason you think it's easy with custom difficulties is because you're incredibly good at the game. Even though I'm following your advices since way before DOTS was a thing, I'm still dying A LOT when there's a hunt and end up losing all my money. If a ghost sees me during a hunt, you can be sure I will die 80% of the time, even if I'm using a smudgestick. Knowing what to do during a hunt is one thing. Actually doing it is another. (If you think getting at least the bronze trophy is a piece of cake, I still do not have it after all this time.)
You're on to something with the smudges. The tier 3 should impact the ghost's speed-up. That's way more useful than slowing it temporarily. Plus, it would add more variety, versus the L2 and L3 being basically the same today.
so, we know dots ghosts could start 'dots state' hunts if they started at the exact time that they were in dots state. we also know ghosts keep the last speed they were at during the last hunt for their ghost events. WHAT IF, obake's ability to change model, were to linger during ghost events, if the last frame of a hunt is when the obake switched model? Not a new ability per say, but a very niche case scenario with very low chance of happening, which is why no one has shown it happening so far? Too bad it turned out to be the same model in the end... but that would be an amazing way to tell obake... though there are plenty of other ways too.
I think in order to keep people from playing the game is by making the ghost evidence kinda necessary to get the multiplier. Like you only get normal reward of normal run if you don't get ghost evidence.
if they removed the starting sanity setting, players would be forced to go through an investigation phase first. because they couldn't just walk in, get a hunt and leave. losing sanity takes a bit of time, so players would have to make use of that time and do evidence hunting
This was actually great way of learning no evidence runs. I wish, as much as I like the commentary and I understand that "his job is to entertain" but if Insym was quiet during the hunts it would be easier to hear.
Imo, the best way to increase reward gain and get that evidence is this, tie it to the objectives, make the obsurd, doesn't matter, but hevily nerf getting the ghost right, like have the multiplier in place, but tie it to the objectives instead, and certain photos like ghost photo, that way u not only encourage pro players to figure out the ghost fast AND do the objective fast, u encourage playing with more players so u can do multiple objectives fast, while at the same time u encourage newer players to try and actually figure out more stuff than just the ghost, teach them to try and endure hunts. Another way is to incrase the reward from perfect games, i feel getting crazy money and xp is honestly great, i personally like to see my money and levels go crazy, but to balance tie it to playing the game rather than guessing the ghost. my take at least
i think what the devs should do about the ghost abilities is you have to find at least 1 or 2 correct evidence in order for the ghost to gain its special ability. Basically if you don't have any correct evidence, then the ghost will hunt normal like any other non special ability ghost. But I don't know, it sound kinda bs tho
I also had today a very odd twin . I compared it with psycho,s footstep video and it had hantu 1.4 speed so it felt like a hantu that sped up. First I believe it was a moroi so we waited until 0 sanity and it was still slow then it did the fast twin and it was obviosly the twins but man idk whats going on. And i also had a hantu zooming arround with the breaker on because in the whole house was cold even if we kept the breaker on the whole game.
For the wrong demon correct mare, if it was a demon it would have used the crucifix in the garage. It was a sus mare because on your last test it probably just moved because the light was on or the crucifix is bugged. I had a bugged crucifix where the crucifix (lvl2)was on one side of the kitchen table and I was on the other side and it spawned on top of me.
i really wished the custom difficulty with grant no xp or money, and was purely for practice, testing or doing custom challenges like a creative mode where u can unleash ur idea of an investigation only for fun purposes and no grinding
I think for custom difficulty it could be something like this: 0.5 ghost speed: 3 ev: max x0 reward 2 ev: max x1 reward 1 ev: max x2 reward 0 ev: max x3 reward 1.0 ghost speed 3 ev: max x2 reward 2 ev: max x3.5 reward 1 ev: max x4.5 reward 0 ev: max x6 reward 1.5 ghost speed 3 ev: max x3.5 reward 2 ev: max x5.5 reward 1 ev: max x7 reward 0 ev: max x8 reward And boost playing original modes by 0.5/1.0 reward
I really enjoy the current system thats in place for level and custom difficulties. The way I play the game has always been trying to turn up the heat and see if I can still get the ghost and all 3 objectives, and it's a lot of fun, and I get a nice payout for getting all of them too. Lately Ive been doing no evidence low sanity runs and its been so much fun for me to try and get the ghost. Capping the custom difficulty to only 6x multiplier would so greatly nerf my payout and honestly I think itd really hurt the game for me. If you're making the game harder, you *should* get increased payout, otherwise doing the challenge loses a lot of its incentive. I dont know why the devs want level to mean so much, when to me it shows your commitment to the game and thats it. Theres nothing wrong with that. Phasmo isnt an esports title and Im not sure why the devs seemingly want to treat it as such.

we also know ghosts keep the last speed they were at during the last hunt for their ghost events.
WHAT IF, obake's ability to change model, were to linger during ghost events, if the last frame of a hunt is when the obake switched model? Not a new ability per say, but a very niche case scenario with very low chance of happening, which is why no one has shown it happening so far?
Too bad it turned out to be the same model in the end... but that would be an amazing way to tell obake... though there are plenty of other ways too.
I think in order to keep people from playing the game is by making the ghost evidence kinda necessary to get the multiplier. Like you only get normal reward of normal run if you don't get ghost evidence.
if they removed the starting sanity setting, players would be forced to go through an investigation phase first. because they couldn't just walk in, get a hunt and leave. losing sanity takes a bit of time, so players would have to make use of that time and do evidence hunting
This was actually great way of learning no evidence runs. I wish, as much as I like the commentary and I understand that "his job is to entertain" but if Insym was quiet during the hunts it would be easier to hear.
Hantu is the indonesian language of ghost 😂
How could be so calm??? If I was there I would be screaming hell out of it. So Scary on solo 😢
True
This is my fav challenge music box will cause nightmares
Insym looks like the most Dutch looking man I ever seen
Those ghosts dissapear as quick as my dad
Imo, the best way to increase reward gain and get that evidence is this, tie it to the objectives, make the obsurd, doesn't matter, but hevily nerf getting the ghost right, like have the multiplier in place, but tie it to the objectives instead, and certain photos like ghost photo, that way u not only encourage pro players to figure out the ghost fast AND do the objective fast, u encourage playing with more players so u can do multiple objectives fast, while at the same time u encourage newer players to try and actually figure out more stuff than just the ghost, teach them to try and endure hunts. Another way is to incrase the reward from perfect games, i feel getting crazy money and xp is honestly great, i personally like to see my money and levels go crazy, but to balance tie it to playing the game rather than guessing the ghost. my take at least
when he said "Test" , i say "Test your MIGHT"
I was doing the 12x dif and got deo 4 times in a row once. I wish i could get thst again
Insym taught everyone very well
I just found your channel and have been binge watching your videos keep it up man!
CHAT is always right
Props to the guy in the second match who said obake
15:48 pure gold jump scare
i think what the devs should do about the ghost abilities is you have to find at least 1 or 2 correct evidence in order for the ghost to gain its special ability.
Basically if you don't have any correct evidence, then the ghost will hunt normal like any other non special ability ghost.
But I don't know, it sound kinda bs tho
this is so entertaining I definetly need more
Insym, next up, you should do Apocalypse Challenge with Chat = Ears!
I also had today a very odd twin . I compared it with psycho,s footstep video and it had hantu 1.4 speed so it felt like a hantu that sped up. First I believe it was a moroi so we waited until 0 sanity and it was still slow then it did the fast twin and it was obviosly the twins but man idk whats going on. And i also had a hantu zooming arround with the breaker on because in the whole house was cold even if we kept the breaker on the whole game.
I literally thought he was doing something new with his hair, until i realized it was just because he had no headphones on lol
Nice haircut, my man got fancy
For the wrong demon correct mare, if it was a demon it would have used the crucifix in the garage. It was a sus mare because on your last test it probably just moved because the light was on or the crucifix is bugged. I had a bugged crucifix where the crucifix (lvl2)was on one side of the kitchen table and I was on the other side and it spawned on top of me.
the chat is on pro mode today
12:49 you like jazz? Quoted by the bee movie
i really wished the custom difficulty with grant no xp or money, and was purely for practice, testing or doing custom challenges
like a creative mode where u can unleash ur idea of an investigation only for fun purposes and no grinding
Fun fact: We might be able to hear the air behind your voice whenever you're talking through your headphones.
Chat popping off
I think for custom difficulty it could be something like this:
0.5 ghost speed:
3 ev: max x0 reward
2 ev: max x1 reward
1 ev: max x2 reward
0 ev: max x3 reward
1.0 ghost speed
3 ev: max x2 reward
2 ev: max x3.5 reward
1 ev: max x4.5 reward
0 ev: max x6 reward
1.5 ghost speed
3 ev: max x3.5 reward
2 ev: max x5.5 reward
1 ev: max x7 reward
0 ev: max x8 reward
And boost playing original modes by 0.5/1.0 reward
I really enjoy the current system thats in place for level and custom difficulties. The way I play the game has always been trying to turn up the heat and see if I can still get the ghost and all 3 objectives, and it's a lot of fun, and I get a nice payout for getting all of them too. Lately Ive been doing no evidence low sanity runs and its been so much fun for me to try and get the ghost. Capping the custom difficulty to only 6x multiplier would so greatly nerf my payout and honestly I think itd really hurt the game for me. If you're making the game harder, you *should* get increased payout, otherwise doing the challenge loses a lot of its incentive. I dont know why the devs want level to mean so much, when to me it shows your commitment to the game and thats it. Theres nothing wrong with that. Phasmo isnt an esports title and Im not sure why the devs seemingly want to treat it as such.
Is there a max amount of lights you van on at a time? When ever i turn on all the lights the breaker turn off
i think it depends on the difficulty but i'm pretty sure around 9
Is it possible to get the objective “get a ghost to walk through salt” even if it’s a wraith?
Hi twitch chat! :D
Insym ear reveal is wild
My favorite phasmophobia TH-camr
Idea, insym reacting to these videos afterwards and pointing out good and bad things that chat did things that were and weren't caught ect!
