hi, I'm not related to the arg, the video is unlisted because I didn't want it to appear in my videos tab, the minecraft nostalgia video was something different that was public, I unlisted all of my remaining videos some months ago
@@stressedskeleton6838 hey i am a dude named chris the funny thing about this video im a couple of minutes in i act almost the same but i don't have the same favorites i do build random stuff and have a certain building style i like

Hello!!!! Thank you for covering my channel, and yes, i did watch to the very end! I truly appreciate your deep dive into the series, been on a somewhat unofficial hiatus for the last 2 months, but this video has me back in the correct mindset for more! New video soon. Truly appreciate the support, much love, and congratulations on so many views!!! PS, totally not offended with any comments about the discord, i completely get it. I am personally very happy to have created a community built around positivity and collaboration, it is a great place :)
I’m glad you enjoyed it and I hope that my coverage is good to show more people your work. I’m also glad you’re back in a better mindset no matter what it was and I’d love to see what you go on to create next!
@@stressedskeleton6838 i am glad to be back in this mindset as well! Creating this ARG was the best decision I’ve ever made. So many opportunities, so many people, so much support. I cannot wait to push my next videos to the absolute limit 🤘 excellent video 🔥
@@andrewgaming677 Thank you, and I hope to eventually make another video once your series gets farther along. I think it’s a nice story and I’d love to see it continue!
@@andrewgaming677 Looking forward to the next installment. 'ARG' has become a catchall term for unfiction projects centered around video games and with secrets here and there, as opposed to full on audience participation-driven code hunts. Do you fully consider this an ARG or more so in the casual definition? It's been fun to actual comments have a bigger place in the videos, do you think you'll let the the audience participate in a more ARG-like way? Thanks. This series is very special to me and I'm hopeful for the future.
Considering the fact that the first ones dog died, Theres a big chance that was a factor they started getting hooked on the wells. alot of people get animals to help emotionally support them, and when said animal dies it can genuinely send you into a deep depression.
Lost my childhood dog from the age of like 8 til like 16-17 in the 11th grade he was the joy of me coming home the little guy that made me smile for just having him around. After that it was my dad the next year then my mother 2 years later, kinda feels like it all started there I’ve had family deaths before but not like that on top of it being my parents. That dog could’ve helped me get over so much but I have my oldest cat at 17 years old she was around when I was young and even more wild she was an offspring of my other cat that got outside and started making kittens, she doesn’t come inside like that anymore but she always comes by and sits next to me gets on my lap and rubs her head on my chin like she did my mom, it’s been 7 years without my father 8 without my dog and nearly 5 without my mother and it bothers me still I can’t play Arkham city without visiting his parents outline and paying respects, literally holding tears back every time I play that game but it all helps cause I’m here to show the world they showed me how to live and how to make it at the age of 20 I owned my trailer we lived in that more than most 20 year olds
1:07:00 Fun Fact: Blue/Cyan Roses actually existed in Minecraft for a good while in pocket edition only being removed in the 0.9.0 update (being in the game for just over 2 years). Since nostalgia seems to play a pretty big roll in this ARG it could be connected. (Although the Cyan Rose never actually existed in the Legacy Console editions (Xbox 360) of Minecraft so I have doubts it is actually connected)
I'm guessing it's just another part of the texture pack. the pack wasn't made for this ARG, so it's probably not specifically made for console Minecraft
@@Xurkltree what version and edition of the game do you play (and do you have any texture packs)? Are you sure those aren't cornflowers (introduced in 1.14) because cyan roses and the normal red rose haven't existed in the game for years (all roses was replaced by the poppy in 1.7 (Java) and 0.9.0 (Bedrock))
@@JL608. It happened when i put a blue orchid in a flower pot, only happened once tho so it was probably an easter egg! (Btw the only texture pack i have is fresh animations)
@@Xurkltree ya that wouldn't have anything to do with vanilla Minecraft (The textures aren't even in the game anymore). It probably has something to do with either a plug-in, texture pack, mod, data pack, or something from the Minecraft marketplace you have installed and not base vanilla Minecraft.
The wells seem to connect different worlds, and Chris mentioned basing his well off of a real life well, and the note from the other entity seemed to imply they were going to something in the real life woods they would use to commit suicide. What if both Chris and the entity went into real life wells that had the same world-hopping properties, which is why they're trapped in these worlds?
Yeah because it seems like both Chris and the First One were both pretty depressed. The First One got driven to a breaking point from the events of the “That’s What Friends Are For” video, driving him to suicide via well. Except he didn’t die, rather the well trapped him in the very thing that drove him crazy- Minecraft. Chris, from the way he talks about his friends ceasing to play Minecraft, and his lack of motivation to build, also seems depressed. I think that through his Minecraft experimentation with the wells, he came into contact with the First One, who drove Chris to suicide in that same well. The First One died a bitter death, with nothing but hurt and hatred on his mind and in his heart, which caused him to then want to drive others to the same fate via the game. Eventually, for whatever reason, be it depression, fascination, curiosity, or a mix, Chris took a rather permanent swim. He then shared the same fate as the First One, doomed to travel the digital wells. Chris didn’t die alone, though, which makes him different than the First One. Chris had Andrew, and regrets killing himself because he left Andrew behind, wondering where his friend went. This caused Chris to try to help Andrew, in comparison to the First One trying to lure Andrew into being the third victim of the well. This series began with Andrew visiting an old world, reminiscing on the past and wishing for older, simpler times. He clearly just isn’t satisfied with the way that his life has headed, and would much rather just think about the times past, where he would just play survival Minecraft with his best friend. Over time, this longing for old times has turned into a desperate need to figure out what happened to his old friend, Chris, who seemingly vanished from the internet one day. At first, when Chris and the First One began stalking Andrew and Andrew found the well, Chris tried stopping Andrew from the truth, trying to have Andrew stay as a simple guy just going through a Minecraft world. Andrew keeps getting reminded of his old life, even when he gets his memory wiped, showing how badly Andrew wishes for those old times to be reality once more. He digs deeper, and eventually Chris realizes that he can’t stop Andrew; just as it was Chris’ decision to drown himself, it’s Andrew’s decision to fall down this rabbit hole. From the way Chris communicates, one eventual outcome is clear: Andrew *will* become the third victim of the well. From this viewpoint, Chris’ actions make perfect sense. He communicates cryptically to slow down Andrews learning. He does all that he can to guide Andrew to the truth while giving Andrew time, space, and multiple worlds to be able to think everything through. Chris wants Andrew to die on his own terms, without regrets, full of closure. That way, unlike Chris or the First One, Andrew may not be trapped. Chris had his regrets when he died, the First One did it to hide from his problems, full of incomplete stories and emotions. That is what trapped them, and the First One wants Andrew trapped with them, hence trying to kill Andrew before he can find closure
Hoooollllyyyyyy I yapped. Anyway my prediction for the ending is either Andrew finds out the full story of what happened to both Chris and the First One, giving himself and the others closure, allowing all three to die in peace (that’s a really busy well) or the First One wins and Andrew kill’s himself prematurely, creating another trapped soul, bound to those bricks and fences
mush, there is also a possibility that the entity maybe just lying to andrew because up to this point, the entity didn't really do anything and was always the one manipulating andrew, he only really showed andrew what he went through when chris convinced andrew and made andrew feel mentally better compared to the entity who was manipulating andrew during ACT 1 and 2.
I feel like the ghost in the machine theory seems correct, atleast for the smiling man. Especially after the book he left behind, the whole "I know where I have to go. The one in the forest. No one will find it, it will be all mine. Just hoping I can get to the bottom safely" I really got the feeling he drowned in a well
i feel bad for him ngl, in his last video (date of today: july 15 2024) one of his "friends" that blew up practically his whole village he made, said "so thats why ur mom left you" also they killed his minecraft dog named barny based off his irl dog that died....
THANK YOU, i saw another video 6 months ago from another youtuber, but he hasn't upload anythinf else since, and I have been dying to see a continuation 😭😭 this is my favorite arg, idk why, but i like this arg a lot, and thank you do much for covering it ❤️ I will see this after going grocery shopping and making my self a big meal to watch this as a celebration
Currently cooking my dinner, It's gonna be fried quesadillas with chorizo and oreo ice cream as dessert, can't wait to finish my dinner to watch the videoooo!
It would be crazy if there was a channel that covered/reviewed ARG's, but secretly, it is its own ARG, and every video where they cover other ARG's has clues hidden in plain sight.
oh god i am tearing up from how much fun i had on the minecraft tutorial maps, 3 of my cousins played it on split screen and we did wacky stuff like blowing villages up with a redstone contraption then making the big tutorial castle split up into 4 sections (i made it just an iron door wood door maze, it made one of my cousins so mad and the oldest cousin said DOOR STUCK DOOR STUCK and we all laughed and laughed) i missed the tutorial maps, did they remove the tutorial maps?
Not per say ‘removed’ but no longer used. But! You can find maps and saves of them easily and all versions! So you can play or see them on newer versions, the early chunks will look the same but beyond there may be so much more! Might be a thrilling idea!
What got me to tear up so seeing the holiday map, as I recognized instantly by the big tree. I remember just exploring and just having fun with the texture pack. I even played around with it without the texture pack to see just how it look so wrong without it
Hey man, I just discovered your channel and I really like your vids, nice work! Also, I totally get what you mean during your "rambling". I find it weird how MLG and older memes like that are just unknown to people barely any younger than me as well. Makes me feel like a grandpa lmao.
this is my first time actually watching the end of the series to the end and i gotta say, almost makes me cry. ive rewatched others cover this arg ad nauseaum and watching this video just made me reminisce about the times i played mc on the old xbox 360. I always had soft spot for goodbyes, changes, being lied to, pretty much everything the series is about, so seeing not only what the series is about but also your quite thorough analysis just made me emotional. the emotional moments in the series (like the farewell book, the "friends" griefing the world, andrew talking to chris) made me remember that nothing is constant, everything will change in its own time. your life will and has went through many changes, you have changed so much since just a few years ago. nothing will last forever, so at the very least try to enjoy it as much as you can while it still lasts, "Memento mori, memento vivere" -- "remember death, remember to live". talking to someone who you cant, who you shouldnt be able to, someone who you didnt get to say goodbye to is such a sad but also cathartic thing. maybe youll finally be able to say goodbye, maybe youll say how much you missed them, maybe how much you loved them. its in loss when we think of just what to say, sometimes we forget those words when the loss disappears, sometimes we hold onto those words for eternity. losing someone is never easy, its a drastic change in your life thatll leave a mark on your body and your soul, whether they have died, you fell out, or either of you is upset at the other. sometimes loss makes us appreciate the things we have, sometimes it makes us bitter and angry until its all you can feel which will leave you drained to the point of not even being able to be angry anymore so youre just left with... nothing. the only thing that brought you comfort, the blistering rage, is gone. and all thats left is you, your thoughts, and the world. you can choose to make peace with the way the world is, accept the loss and the inevitability of the many losses youll suffer in the future. you can ponder life and its meaning, seeing it as beautiful, cruel, sad, mysterious or whatever else your mind chooses. no matter what you choose, what happens, life will move on. you can appreciate your friends, family, pets, and whatever else you choose. you may remain bitter. you may become nihilistic and see the world as pointless, changing your life drastically. something so simple as change can have such a drastic impact on the mind, body and soul. nostalgia is related to loss, in a way. you remember your childhood, the simple times. you mourn internally at the loss of those times. you hate how complicated life has gotten, you hate how easy and happy life was but no longer is. so many little things can affect our lives much more than we realise. the world is so beautiful but so cruel and sad. remember to appreciate that which may be lost and to live you life to the fullest so that you may be happy on your deathbed and die with a smile of satisfaction at the fact you lived how you chose.
I love this comment so much. I recently suffered a great loss and sometimes I only want to go back to my comfort place when things were carefree and it seemed it would be like that forever. Sometimes it feels like being stuck in a loop, but that loss also helps me appreciate what I do have now and to enjoy every moment with the people and things that make me happy. I'm excited to see where this story goes. I didn't expect much at first but wow, I'm glad I was mistaken. I hope you're doing well.
@@user-is7xs1mr9y loss is truly one of the most painful events that may happen to a person, be it the loss of a person, pet, an item, or even innocence. to lose something which you may not earn or buy or convince or gain back in any way is truly heartbreaking. there is a comfort in knowing that all wounds, even most fatal and mortal will heal eventually with time, but only if you let them. a wound will not heal if you keep making it return to what it once were and what it will be. and do not worry, life is not a loop nor does it contain any. all that happens, does so for the first time and thats because it happens to you. you havent been before and all that happens to you happens so for the first time since you begin, are and end only once. trying to comfort yourself with memories of the past is certainly a way to deal with that changing feeling. just dont forget to wake up, before you forget how to. as that may be even worse than losing all that is and isnt yours.
i finished this video like an hour ago but for some reason that last video from the smiley faced character has been sat ruminating in my brain? that and chris’ signs in the christmas pack episode both seemed to get me the most out of anything. the dichotomy of the genuine rekindling of friendship versus the crumbling caused by cruelty of a false one? ouch, yeesh
Even if I'm generally not a fun of just mostly describing videos, even though there is analysis later, the music and the way you speak just make this feel like I asked a friend to recount what happened in the story to me. I don't know if this is the vibe you're going for, but I am really enjoying it nonetheless
I'm excited to watch this! Been following the arg for a while, next episode is being worked on (excited for that), so I'm interesting in your take on it. The discord server kinda has everyone's guesses and theories atm
Excited for Andrew to continue this amazing ARG. It's of an amazing production value and it brings me to tears. I mean, when has a deceased friend talking to you from the grave never made you cry a goddamn river?
hey quick editing tip, you should probably play a sound clip of andrew saying things instead of just quoting him everytime. theres nothing inherently wrong with quoting him but it gets boring listening to the same voice talk over and over yknow. other than that nicpick, this is a fantastic video. really well done.
On the topic of the blue roses, they have a deeper in the flower language. Blue roses symbolize "Mystery, A longing for the impossible, Secrecy and Pride." I don't know if these meanings have any weight in regards to the ARG, but I just thought it was a little strange and weighed on my mind a little in context with the signs and what that creepy player was saying.
Thank you so much for not including any jumpscares in this video! I have a lot of trouble with spooky stuff, so I never watch the series themselves. You making a video that delivers the story without any of the fear means I can enjoy the story my way without having to suffer through it. I appreciate this video and I appreciate you!
HI, i watched the whole thing from start to finish i just wanna say AN HOUR AND A HALF of you decomposing and giving your own thoughts on the arg has never brought me more entertainment, god bless you.
The thing is, we aren't really old, it's just that 1. Things are so much more stressful economically since the min wage hasn't risen along with inflation. And stress ages us/makes us feel older since we are going through so much. 2. Technological advancement is exponential! Think of how far we've come in 10 years. Went from having 5 different game consoles (ie gameboy/DS, wii, GameCube, etc) to being able to simulate each one on the computer and then some. Minecraft has gone from taking 20 minutes to load 100 mods I used back then to now taking 10 minutes to load 300 lmao
hey! i love these type of nrg videos! your storytelling is super good! there is a minecraft nrg called memybrotherhim that is super creepy looking, there’s no videos about this chanel on youtube it would be super cool if you did!!
I actually subscribed to them the other day after they commented on my last ARG video. Ever since I did the first one I have been recommended many different ARGs, I don’t want to be pigeon holed to just one subject, but I hope to eventually cover them too
Since I heard saw one of the videos you talked about some weeks/months(?) ago I've been ready to not be surprised at all if Chris and Andrew are not actually 'real' people in some way, with the blue rose reference possibly adding to this vein? Not to say specifically trapped in Minecraft itself, but unless there is actual magic or an organisation wiping people's memories via minecraft redstone contprations, the protocol wiping a real human's memories makes no sense. However. Thematically. It seems really possible the ARG is more symbolism-based than literal. And although the use of Lethe Protocol is probably a coincidence (most likely absolutely is lmao), its inclusion on the alzheimer's europe website could be kind of interesting. But in that case LETHE is a project intended to basically help with research to combat the condition. Bit of a rambling comment here, but, a lot of what he says/experiences (not being able to talk at all in the land of towers for unknown reasons, the erased memories, etc.) could be him literally being controlled, or they are symbolic of someone losing their handle on reality. This whole train of thoughts mostly applies to the first half of the ARG, though.
The nostalgia rant was so funny and so true I keep referencing Vine to my underclassmen and like sooo many of them have no idea what I'm talking about and it's just so shocking every time lmaooo
btw in bedrock, you can change the author name of books, so ya could make a book authored “notch” (unlike java, where unless you use commands, the author name is your username nice vid!
So I don’t know if someone pointed this out and if they did apologize for saying the same thing. But I think how this gonna end is being peace to the smiley figure. I think what really made them snap was the fact they killed their dog, which was a memorial to their real life dog. They basically had their dog die twice which could have send him spiraling. The only think thing keeping connected to reality so to speak. Now what does have to do with making peace with the smiley figure, simple Andrew is gonna tame a dog or maybe show the bone to the smiley figure altering being chased back to Andrew’s world with his dog. It could make the smiley figure remember who they use to be. Now I could be completely wrong, but this my theory and hope.
Great video man. Could do with a little more audio from the actual videos imo (i.e letting us hear the creepy noises instead of describing them) but overall really enjoyed the format of this, I found your commentary clean and concise.
Every time I read it, the signs in the Christmas texturepack world thing tug at my heartstrings. It’s like watching someone meet a dead relative in a dream.
this video is awesome! as a semi-active member of the discord server, its always cool to see people make new videos on the series in which i love a ton!
This story hits hard for me… a lot of it seems like it focuses on the longing for the past and people/things we lost. The elements of nostalgia. Even the implications of suicide, which is kind of paired with this longing for the past. Also it seems to deal with the cycle of bullying and hatred. The smiling figure was bullied by others. Which led him to abuse Chris and Andrew, and likely intending to groom Chris to bully Andrew as well. “Hurt people hurt people,” as they say. I think ultimately Andrew may have to let Chris and his nostalgic past go in order to “defeat” the smiling figure. But maybe that would be cliche. This series deserves much, much more attention and respect than it’s gotten. Thank you for this analysis that gives both.
i used to play on ps3 and not too long ago i rebooted my ps3 up and started up minecraft since i couldn't access much aside it. MAN i miss the mashup packs and the tutorial world, they need to bring that shit back. It was so cool loading into a map that probably took a lot of people a lot of time to make and being given the same amount of minecraft normally has but with the texture packs and fully unique map
11:02 i made a cool minigame: go to a Snowy village get a kit of Iron gear and food then spawn in a bunch of Phantoms and try and survive without dying until day I call it Phantonado
Hey man! To record my PS3, I use an REI 1x2 HDMI Splitter w/EDID (that's what it says right on it I don't have a box for a UPC or anything). It still works even with a PS5! I keep mine on "COPY" and not "SCAN" and don't tell anyone, but i've even been able to stream my blurays to my discord server this way. I don't know if they're still being made but mine was ~$22USD. The PS3 specifically is weird though, if it doesn't show up sometimes I have to just close and restart the program. On PS3 HDCP is hard wired into the console, so a splitter is always needed for it specifically.. Oh, I should mention that I am also using an HD60S!
Thank you for the compliment. However, English is my first and main language, so I don’t know how to feel about that part. It’s probably because I stuttered a bit and mince words sometimes.
@@stressedskeleton6838i think they were saying english isnt their first language, so your voice is clear and concise for them to learn from :) which it is, i appreciate your annunciation as well!
I watched a video about AndrewGaming67 a few months ago and i just remembered it now, i tried searching for the same video about it untill i settled for this one. I wasnt disappointed.
Honestly after finding this channel from that one portal mod I really have found these videos quite down to earth and more real than a lot of arg coverage channels now, I hope you keep excelling in your craft because It really shows 🔥
Honestly listening to you narrate and describe this reminds me of a weird project my english teacher had us do during the third simester of sophomore year, I was made the narrator and had to describe the scenes as they happened, and what really brought back the memories is when you called the mossy cobbleston structure a certian something at the time stamp of 19:48. XD
Bro andrew gives so much nostalgia my minecraft i first played i was a god damn noob does not know anything my friend told me about aternos and we made a server after 2 years my friend died because of a bike accsident rip bro
When I saw the dark figures, I made a joke about Benadryl hallucination shadow hat man entities, and lo and behold these people are actually getting addicted to using the wells. Though as a deliriant, the high off of DPH is pretty horrifying and something people don't usually enjoy using recreationally
Good video, but i will say i would have preferred a theorized timeline of events at the end, it would have been nice and not leave me confused as to when things happenend lol. Also i know andrew KIND of reacts to the weird events happening but i wonder why he isnt more more freaked out that literal ghosts / entities (of his old friend who disappeared) are just like in his game? this would be some huge scientific discovery but the dude is just going along talking about nostalgia lmao.
the christmas world was my favorite when i was in middle school! i would imagine i lived in the big mansion and use the.. train? i think there was a train track sort of thing..... i didn't have any friends but i definitely had an imagination
This really is an interesting ARG. I'm scared for the future, but I'm in deep hope, that Andrew's going to manage to save his friend at least, while I think, that it might be to late for number one ...
I know it's probably acted, but the end episode. Man it ennrages me. I've siffered something like that but in real life. Everyone destroying what you built with effort and love. Classmates becoming mocking demons, your world falling apart. A hasppy kid with his world; i may say dreamworld, desired world, it's only beautiful think. The sarcastic comments, the sadness, the rage, the pain, the mocking insults. Many years after i worked as a teacher on a summercamp and some kids (ages 12-14) tried to do the same those guys did. I almost snapped, but as an adult i kicked them of the class. I made them say sorry to the other kid and they built it all together. I wish someone did that to me, instead of enduring that (irl) for so many years. Fcking kids man, sometimes they are just evil.
they are three things, that I adore: minecraft, horror and star trek. Now I found a chanel where Spock is theorising about minecraft ARG. I can die peacefully now
I feel really bad for the smiling entity.. He was just terribly misunderstood, and had good intentions.. but met bad people. All he wanted was to be seen and heard, but nobody gave him that. I wish I could give them a hug. :'(
I have a theory for the arg The one piece of bread that is left in his hotbar for so long could be a symbol of 'connection' to a God As the Bible says: "… this bread, my body"
23:15 i don't know about others but i personally dislike when a cool internet mystery turns out to just be a "cult" or some religious reference and that's all... it's so bland and there's already enough religion irl
22:45 Actually, they weren't trying to get to heaven. They were trying to build above heaven to show that they were as powerful or more powerful, I believe. I know it was something along those lines.
The cave noises don't mean anything... he's playing on bedrock edition... cave sounds just... play whenever they want on bedrock edition... my wife and I have a running joke about that in fact!
1:26:37 honestly, if it’s what you want to do, then do it! I’m also a big fan of the editing style of Martincitopants as well, kept me hooked and honestly, I feel like you could pull it off.
That could be possible, but in my opinion it wouldn’t explain how we’ve seen it in worlds clearly older, or supposed to be older, that the village of pillage update when they were added. Again, it could be possible but I think they just may not be likely, that’s an interesting idea though if they somehow brought cornflowers back to older versions
I have no idea if anybody else thought of this or if this was even intentional, wether it be an accident of world generation or just set dressing I am reading to deep into, but I think the choice of those particular two block tall flowers with the round pink blooms (I forget what they are called in game) being placed right outside the birch house is really interesting. At night, whenever Andrew looks out the window, and the audience is on high alert, they (in this case me) may briefly see a little creepy face (distantly resembling the figures own) in the flower
i have come up with the theory midway through this video during act 2 what if Chris is actually trapped in the cult and now the other are trying to do the same thing to Andrew that they did to Chris, and the black figure might be Chris who is trying to protect Andrew and stop him from going the the said "land of towers" which might actually be an imitation of heaven. I also think that if Andrew goes to the towers then he that might mean that he went into the cult and is now trapped there forever as it said in act 1 after Andrew respwaned in the bed of land of towers, that "there is no going back but its just a theory,A GAME THEORY(always wanted to that)
If you're still having issues with recording PS3 footage, it's HDCP. Try using a HDMI splitter, worked for my HD60. The splitter strips HDCP so you should be able to record it then.
I'm gonna be real. I loved the video, but I listened for about 20 minutes, and then got distracted while playing a game, that's my bad. At least I get to watch the video over again. However with that being a suggestion, I listen to your videos in the background with occasional alt tabbing to see what you want us to see. So, I think your describing is great! However, could you also maybe play a few lines from the video, something akin to what Nexpo does if I recall correctly. If you don't like what I'm saying then that's perfectly fine, too. Thanks for reading!
Something about "strange person in game, not doing anything, just staring and typing out long ass sentences in chat" is not spooky or unsettling at all.
only suggestion i guess i have is that you should include more of the raw video and audio since i feel like im missing out. i could always go and watch it myself, but i feel like ill miss something or something crucial will slip by me, and even if it doesnt, your commentary is just awesome. so if you could balance out the actual arg's video and audio with your own commentary, it would make it so awesome to watch. i understand why you wouldnt though, considering copyright and all that... still, i love your videos, man. keep at it.
I will say, I mostly did that because for some reason a lot of the videos for this series and the last one I covered LOVE using the most annoying and loud static, so I do try to avoid that. I do try to incorporate when Andrew speaks but sometimes it’s just so far apart in the way they say things that in some cases It just doesn’t make sense. But thank you very much, I’ll consider that

PS, totally not offended with any comments about the discord, i completely get it. I am personally very happy to have created a community built around positivity and collaboration, it is a great place :)
I’m glad you enjoyed it and I hope that my coverage is good to show more people your work. I’m also glad you’re back in a better mindset no matter what it was and I’d love to see what you go on to create next!
@@stressedskeleton6838 i am glad to be back in this mindset as well! Creating this ARG was the best decision I’ve ever made. So many opportunities, so many people, so much support. I cannot wait to push my next videos to the absolute limit 🤘 excellent video 🔥
@@andrewgaming677 Thank you, and I hope to eventually make another video once your series gets farther along. I think it’s a nice story and I’d love to see it continue!
@@andrewgaming677 Looking forward to the next installment. 'ARG' has become a catchall term for unfiction projects centered around video games and with secrets here and there, as opposed to full on audience participation-driven code hunts. Do you fully consider this an ARG or more so in the casual definition? It's been fun to actual comments have a bigger place in the videos, do you think you'll let the the audience participate in a more ARG-like way?
Thanks. This series is very special to me and I'm hopeful for the future.
Hi Andrew not extremely traumatized or dead after the events of your series on Chris?
Considering the fact that the first ones dog died, Theres a big chance that was a factor they started getting hooked on the wells. alot of people get animals to help emotionally support them, and when said animal dies it can genuinely send you into a deep depression.
What was i yapping about
Lost my childhood dog from the age of like 8 til like 16-17 in the 11th grade he was the joy of me coming home the little guy that made me smile for just having him around. After that it was my dad the next year then my mother 2 years later, kinda feels like it all started there I’ve had family deaths before but not like that on top of it being my parents. That dog could’ve helped me get over so much but I have my oldest cat at 17 years old she was around when I was young and even more wild she was an offspring of my other cat that got outside and started making kittens, she doesn’t come inside like that anymore but she always comes by and sits next to me gets on my lap and rubs her head on my chin like she did my mom, it’s been 7 years without my father 8 without my dog and nearly 5 without my mother and it bothers me still I can’t play Arkham city without visiting his parents outline and paying respects, literally holding tears back every time I play that game but it all helps cause I’m here to show the world they showed me how to live and how to make it at the age of 20 I owned my trailer we lived in that more than most 20 year olds
@@Ncorpsnails I dont know, Oliver, but your confusion is relatable.
1:07:00 Fun Fact: Blue/Cyan Roses actually existed in Minecraft for a good while in pocket edition only being removed in the 0.9.0 update (being in the game for just over 2 years).
Since nostalgia seems to play a pretty big roll in this ARG it could be connected. (Although the Cyan Rose never actually existed in the Legacy Console editions (Xbox 360) of Minecraft so I have doubts it is actually connected)
I'm guessing it's just another part of the texture pack. the pack wasn't made for this ARG, so it's probably not specifically made for console Minecraft
Bro cyan roses still exist, I have them as decoration inside my base
@@Xurkltree what version and edition of the game do you play (and do you have any texture packs)? Are you sure those aren't cornflowers (introduced in 1.14) because cyan roses and the normal red rose haven't existed in the game for years (all roses was replaced by the poppy in 1.7 (Java) and 0.9.0 (Bedrock))
@@JL608. It happened when i put a blue orchid in a flower pot, only happened once tho so it was probably an easter egg! (Btw the only texture pack i have is fresh animations)
@@Xurkltree ya that wouldn't have anything to do with vanilla Minecraft (The textures aren't even in the game anymore). It probably has something to do with either a plug-in, texture pack, mod, data pack, or something from the Minecraft marketplace you have installed and not base vanilla Minecraft.
AndrewGaming67 has to be my favourite minecraft ARG of all time.
It's one of the more coherent and spooky one plus Andrew or whoever plays Andrew is legitimately entertaining
its made me cry literally every time ive rewatched winter wonderland
The wells seem to connect different worlds, and Chris mentioned basing his well off of a real life well, and the note from the other entity seemed to imply they were going to something in the real life woods they would use to commit suicide. What if both Chris and the entity went into real life wells that had the same world-hopping properties, which is why they're trapped in these worlds?
Yeah because it seems like both Chris and the First One were both pretty depressed. The First One got driven to a breaking point from the events of the “That’s What Friends Are For” video, driving him to suicide via well. Except he didn’t die, rather the well trapped him in the very thing that drove him crazy- Minecraft. Chris, from the way he talks about his friends ceasing to play Minecraft, and his lack of motivation to build, also seems depressed. I think that through his Minecraft experimentation with the wells, he came into contact with the First One, who drove Chris to suicide in that same well. The First One died a bitter death, with nothing but hurt and hatred on his mind and in his heart, which caused him to then want to drive others to the same fate via the game. Eventually, for whatever reason, be it depression, fascination, curiosity, or a mix, Chris took a rather permanent swim. He then shared the same fate as the First One, doomed to travel the digital wells. Chris didn’t die alone, though, which makes him different than the First One. Chris had Andrew, and regrets killing himself because he left Andrew behind, wondering where his friend went. This caused Chris to try to help Andrew, in comparison to the First One trying to lure Andrew into being the third victim of the well. This series began with Andrew visiting an old world, reminiscing on the past and wishing for older, simpler times. He clearly just isn’t satisfied with the way that his life has headed, and would much rather just think about the times past, where he would just play survival Minecraft with his best friend. Over time, this longing for old times has turned into a desperate need to figure out what happened to his old friend, Chris, who seemingly vanished from the internet one day. At first, when Chris and the First One began stalking Andrew and Andrew found the well, Chris tried stopping Andrew from the truth, trying to have Andrew stay as a simple guy just going through a Minecraft world. Andrew keeps getting reminded of his old life, even when he gets his memory wiped, showing how badly Andrew wishes for those old times to be reality once more. He digs deeper, and eventually Chris realizes that he can’t stop Andrew; just as it was Chris’ decision to drown himself, it’s Andrew’s decision to fall down this rabbit hole. From the way Chris communicates, one eventual outcome is clear: Andrew *will* become the third victim of the well. From this viewpoint, Chris’ actions make perfect sense. He communicates cryptically to slow down Andrews learning. He does all that he can to guide Andrew to the truth while giving Andrew time, space, and multiple worlds to be able to think everything through. Chris wants Andrew to die on his own terms, without regrets, full of closure. That way, unlike Chris or the First One, Andrew may not be trapped. Chris had his regrets when he died, the First One did it to hide from his problems, full of incomplete stories and emotions. That is what trapped them, and the First One wants Andrew trapped with them, hence trying to kill Andrew before he can find closure
Hoooollllyyyyyy I yapped. Anyway my prediction for the ending is either Andrew finds out the full story of what happened to both Chris and the First One, giving himself and the others closure, allowing all three to die in peace (that’s a really busy well) or the First One wins and Andrew kill’s himself prematurely, creating another trapped soul, bound to those bricks and fences
mush, there is also a possibility that the entity maybe just lying to andrew because up to this point, the entity didn't really do anything and was always the one manipulating andrew, he only really showed andrew what he went through when chris convinced andrew and made andrew feel mentally better compared to the entity who was manipulating andrew during ACT 1 and 2.
I really like your ARG videos so far, the relaxing music instead of the ususal spooky music you play is really nice.
I feel like the ghost in the machine theory seems correct, atleast for the smiling man. Especially after the book he left behind, the whole "I know where I have to go. The one in the forest. No one will find it, it will be all mine. Just hoping I can get to the bottom safely" I really got the feeling he drowned in a well
i feel bad for him ngl, in his last video (date of today: july 15 2024) one of his "friends" that blew up practically his whole village he made, said "so thats why ur mom left you" also they killed his minecraft dog named barny based off his irl dog that died....
Actually, that is most likely the smile guy
THANK YOU, i saw another video 6 months ago from another youtuber, but he hasn't upload anythinf else since, and I have been dying to see a continuation 😭😭 this is my favorite arg, idk why, but i like this arg a lot, and thank you do much for covering it ❤️ I will see this after going grocery shopping and making my self a big meal to watch this as a celebration
Currently cooking my dinner, It's gonna be fried quesadillas with chorizo and oreo ice cream as dessert, can't wait to finish my dinner to watch the videoooo!
Literally how did I find this ARG yesterday and now you're talking about it, really excited to watch!
19:49 "Eventually Andrew finds a mossy cobble di- I mean a structure"
Bro 😂
1:22:11 i only just realised its the Christmas pack cuz chris….
15:50 Hey you accidentally kept an outtake in LMAO! Fantastic video though man
Damnit, I thought I had gotten them all this time. At least it's not as bad as the last one
Wait..... That wasnt supposed to be in?
Aww you cut it out!
It would be crazy if there was a channel that covered/reviewed ARG's, but secretly, it is its own ARG, and every video where they cover other ARG's has clues hidden in plain sight.
Ik one that does that, but i do not remember the name.
Zeemyth has done a couple series similar to what you suggested
i really like this idea, maybe ill do it lmao.
oh god i am tearing up from how much fun i had on the minecraft tutorial maps, 3 of my cousins played it on split screen and we did wacky stuff like blowing villages up with a redstone contraption then making the big tutorial castle split up into 4 sections (i made it just an iron door wood door maze, it made one of my cousins so mad and the oldest cousin said DOOR STUCK DOOR STUCK and we all laughed and laughed) i missed the tutorial maps, did they remove the tutorial maps?
Not per say ‘removed’ but no longer used. But! You can find maps and saves of them easily and all versions! So you can play or see them on newer versions, the early chunks will look the same but beyond there may be so much more!
Might be a thrilling idea!
What got me to tear up so seeing the holiday map, as I recognized instantly by the big tree. I remember just exploring and just having fun with the texture pack. I even played around with it without the texture pack to see just how it look so wrong without it
@@Soul_Espeon i remember 2 packs as well, the steampunk one and the halo one
you can't just acknowledge your cat and not show us them!
regardless haha, great video. really enjoyed the analysis!
Maybe next time he’ll pop up ;)
@@stressedskeleton6838 he better!
i LOVE the old tutorial worlds. was around to experience each and every one.
Hey man, I just discovered your channel and I really like your vids, nice work!
Also, I totally get what you mean during your "rambling". I find it weird how MLG and older memes like that are just unknown to people barely any younger than me as well. Makes me feel like a grandpa lmao.
19:52
It should be noted that this di- i mean structure is the old "herobrine shrine" but made up of only mossy cobble.
it’s actually at 19:46 but still close
this is my first time actually watching the end of the series to the end and i gotta say, almost makes me cry. ive rewatched others cover this arg ad nauseaum and watching this video just made me reminisce about the times i played mc on the old xbox 360. I always had soft spot for goodbyes, changes, being lied to, pretty much everything the series is about, so seeing not only what the series is about but also your quite thorough analysis just made me emotional. the emotional moments in the series (like the farewell book, the "friends" griefing the world, andrew talking to chris) made me remember that nothing is constant, everything will change in its own time. your life will and has went through many changes, you have changed so much since just a few years ago. nothing will last forever, so at the very least try to enjoy it as much as you can while it still lasts, "Memento mori, memento vivere" -- "remember death, remember to live". talking to someone who you cant, who you shouldnt be able to, someone who you didnt get to say goodbye to is such a sad but also cathartic thing. maybe youll finally be able to say goodbye, maybe youll say how much you missed them, maybe how much you loved them. its in loss when we think of just what to say, sometimes we forget those words when the loss disappears, sometimes we hold onto those words for eternity. losing someone is never easy, its a drastic change in your life thatll leave a mark on your body and your soul, whether they have died, you fell out, or either of you is upset at the other. sometimes loss makes us appreciate the things we have, sometimes it makes us bitter and angry until its all you can feel which will leave you drained to the point of not even being able to be angry anymore so youre just left with... nothing. the only thing that brought you comfort, the blistering rage, is gone. and all thats left is you, your thoughts, and the world. you can choose to make peace with the way the world is, accept the loss and the inevitability of the many losses youll suffer in the future. you can ponder life and its meaning, seeing it as beautiful, cruel, sad, mysterious or whatever else your mind chooses. no matter what you choose, what happens, life will move on. you can appreciate your friends, family, pets, and whatever else you choose. you may remain bitter. you may become nihilistic and see the world as pointless, changing your life drastically. something so simple as change can have such a drastic impact on the mind, body and soul. nostalgia is related to loss, in a way. you remember your childhood, the simple times. you mourn internally at the loss of those times. you hate how complicated life has gotten, you hate how easy and happy life was but no longer is. so many little things can affect our lives much more than we realise. the world is so beautiful but so cruel and sad. remember to appreciate that which may be lost and to live you life to the fullest so that you may be happy on your deathbed and die with a smile of satisfaction at the fact you lived how you chose.
I'm going to find where you live
This comment is really loong
@@Warrior_Cats_Master real
I love this comment so much. I recently suffered a great loss and sometimes I only want to go back to my comfort place when things were carefree and it seemed it would be like that forever. Sometimes it feels like being stuck in a loop, but that loss also helps me appreciate what I do have now and to enjoy every moment with the people and things that make me happy.
I'm excited to see where this story goes. I didn't expect much at first but wow, I'm glad I was mistaken. I hope you're doing well.
@@user-is7xs1mr9y loss is truly one of the most painful events that may happen to a person, be it the loss of a person, pet, an item, or even innocence. to lose something which you may not earn or buy or convince or gain back in any way is truly heartbreaking. there is a comfort in knowing that all wounds, even most fatal and mortal will heal eventually with time, but only if you let them. a wound will not heal if you keep making it return to what it once were and what it will be. and do not worry, life is not a loop nor does it contain any. all that happens, does so for the first time and thats because it happens to you. you havent been before and all that happens to you happens so for the first time since you begin, are and end only once. trying to comfort yourself with memories of the past is certainly a way to deal with that changing feeling. just dont forget to wake up, before you forget how to. as that may be even worse than losing all that is and isnt yours.

i finished this video like an hour ago but for some reason that last video from the smiley faced character has been sat ruminating in my brain? that and chris’ signs in the christmas pack episode both seemed to get me the most out of anything. the dichotomy of the genuine rekindling of friendship versus the crumbling caused by cruelty of a false one? ouch, yeesh
Even if I'm generally not a fun of just mostly describing videos, even though there is analysis later, the music and the way you speak just make this feel like I asked a friend to recount what happened in the story to me. I don't know if this is the vibe you're going for, but I am really enjoying it nonetheless
15:52 i love how you said ender portal, then silence, then nether portal :)) great video btw
I'm excited to watch this! Been following the arg for a while, next episode is being worked on (excited for that), so I'm interesting in your take on it. The discord server kinda has everyone's guesses and theories atm
Excited for Andrew to continue this amazing ARG. It's of an amazing production value and it brings me to tears. I mean, when has a deceased friend talking to you from the grave never made you cry a goddamn river?
25:57 look at the 2nd furthest tree on the right, i think he is holding the invis potion there
just when I think I got over my arg liking ANOTHER hour long vid dissecting an arg pops up 😭
hey quick editing tip, you should probably play a sound clip of andrew saying things instead of just quoting him everytime. theres nothing inherently wrong with quoting him but it gets boring listening to the same voice talk over and over yknow. other than that nicpick, this is a fantastic video. really well done.
On the topic of the blue roses, they have a deeper in the flower language. Blue roses symbolize "Mystery, A longing for the impossible, Secrecy and Pride." I don't know if these meanings have any weight in regards to the ARG, but I just thought it was a little strange and weighed on my mind a little in context with the signs and what that creepy player was saying.
From act 1 i get the vibe that the bones are literally just a metaphor for Chris being to these places and left a piece of himself in this places
Thank you so much for not including any jumpscares in this video! I have a lot of trouble with spooky stuff, so I never watch the series themselves. You making a video that delivers the story without any of the fear means I can enjoy the story my way without having to suffer through it. I appreciate this video and I appreciate you!
This is maybe one of the more thoughtful arg's, and one with commom sense. It was wonderfully made, and I hope this dude is proud.
HI, i watched the whole thing from start to finish i just wanna say AN HOUR AND A HALF of you decomposing and giving your own thoughts on the arg has never brought me more entertainment, god bless you.
The thing is, we aren't really old, it's just that
1. Things are so much more stressful economically since the min wage hasn't risen along with inflation. And stress ages us/makes us feel older since we are going through so much.
2. Technological advancement is exponential! Think of how far we've come in 10 years. Went from having 5 different game consoles (ie gameboy/DS, wii, GameCube, etc) to being able to simulate each one on the computer and then some.
Minecraft has gone from taking 20 minutes to load 100 mods I used back then to now taking 10 minutes to load 300 lmao
hey! i love these type of nrg videos! your storytelling is super good! there is a minecraft nrg called memybrotherhim that is super creepy looking, there’s no videos about this chanel on youtube it would be super cool if you did!!
I actually subscribed to them the other day after they commented on my last ARG video. Ever since I did the first one I have been recommended many different ARGs, I don’t want to be pigeon holed to just one subject, but I hope to eventually cover them too
Since I heard saw one of the videos you talked about some weeks/months(?) ago I've been ready to not be surprised at all if Chris and Andrew are not actually 'real' people in some way, with the blue rose reference possibly adding to this vein?
Not to say specifically trapped in Minecraft itself, but unless there is actual magic or an organisation wiping people's memories via minecraft redstone contprations, the protocol wiping a real human's memories makes no sense.
However. Thematically. It seems really possible the ARG is more symbolism-based than literal. And although the use of Lethe Protocol is probably a coincidence (most likely absolutely is lmao), its inclusion on the alzheimer's europe website could be kind of interesting. But in that case LETHE is a project intended to basically help with research to combat the condition.
Bit of a rambling comment here, but, a lot of what he says/experiences (not being able to talk at all in the land of towers for unknown reasons, the erased memories, etc.) could be him literally being controlled, or they are symbolic of someone losing their handle on reality.
This whole train of thoughts mostly applies to the first half of the ARG, though.
The nostalgia rant was so funny and so true I keep referencing Vine to my underclassmen and like sooo many of them have no idea what I'm talking about and it's just so shocking every time lmaooo
btw in bedrock, you can change the author name of books, so ya could make a book authored “notch” (unlike java, where unless you use commands, the author name is your username
nice vid!
didn't know that was possible in bedorck, thank you for the info
So I don’t know if someone pointed this out and if they did apologize for saying the same thing. But I think how this gonna end is being peace to the smiley figure. I think what really made them snap was the fact they killed their dog, which was a memorial to their real life dog. They basically had their dog die twice which could have send him spiraling. The only think thing keeping connected to reality so to speak. Now what does have to do with making peace with the smiley figure, simple Andrew is gonna tame a dog or maybe show the bone to the smiley figure altering being chased back to Andrew’s world with his dog. It could make the smiley figure remember who they use to be. Now I could be completely wrong, but this my theory and hope.
Great video man. Could do with a little more audio from the actual videos imo (i.e letting us hear the creepy noises instead of describing them) but overall really enjoyed the format of this, I found your commentary clean and concise.
15:50 lol uncut blooper!😂
Every time I read it, the signs in the Christmas texturepack world thing tug at my heartstrings. It’s like watching someone meet a dead relative in a dream.
I can't believe everyone noticed the black figure but couldn't notice the misspelling of Episdoe
Some did. Unsurprisingly I did not
this video is awesome! as a semi-active member of the discord server, its always cool to see people make new videos on the series in which i love a ton!
This story hits hard for me… a lot of it seems like it focuses on the longing for the past and people/things we lost. The elements of nostalgia. Even the implications of suicide, which is kind of paired with this longing for the past.
Also it seems to deal with the cycle of bullying and hatred. The smiling figure was bullied by others. Which led him to abuse Chris and Andrew, and likely intending to groom Chris to bully Andrew as well. “Hurt people hurt people,” as they say.
I think ultimately Andrew may have to let Chris and his nostalgic past go in order to “defeat” the smiling figure. But maybe that would be cliche.
This series deserves much, much more attention and respect than it’s gotten. Thank you for this analysis that gives both.
m00nlander analysis when? its minecraft too but like, cinematic arg/webseries??
I love it, you really dig deep. You found the character so many times idk how u can look thru each frame but you did great
i used to play on ps3 and not too long ago i rebooted my ps3 up and started up minecraft since i couldn't access much aside it. MAN i miss the mashup packs and the tutorial world, they need to bring that shit back. It was so cool loading into a map that probably took a lot of people a lot of time to make and being given the same amount of minecraft normally has but with the texture packs and fully unique map
11:02 i made a cool minigame: go to a Snowy village get a kit of Iron gear and food then spawn in a bunch of Phantoms and try and survive without dying until day I call it Phantonado
I think i might start doing stuff like this I think itd be fun to do updates on this arg in particular but many others too
My fav part was the intricate cat lore. 1:15:28
Hey man! To record my PS3, I use an REI 1x2 HDMI Splitter w/EDID (that's what it says right on it I don't have a box for a UPC or anything). It still works even with a PS5! I keep mine on "COPY" and not "SCAN" and don't tell anyone, but i've even been able to stream my blurays to my discord server this way. I don't know if they're still being made but mine was ~$22USD. The PS3 specifically is weird though, if it doesn't show up sometimes I have to just close and restart the program. On PS3 HDCP is hard wired into the console, so a splitter is always needed for it specifically.. Oh, I should mention that I am also using an HD60S!
it seems like this arg is symbolic of not staying in the past and to forces on the present and to look forward to what's to come
you seem like really enthusiastic creator and as someone who hasnt english as first language... your voice is awesome for listening and understanding
Thank you for the compliment. However, English is my first and main language, so I don’t know how to feel about that part. It’s probably because I stuttered a bit and mince words sometimes.
@@stressedskeleton6838i think they were saying english isnt their first language, so your voice is clear and concise for them to learn from :) which it is, i appreciate your annunciation as well!
I watched a video about AndrewGaming67 a few months ago and i just remembered it now, i tried searching for the same video about it untill i settled for this one.
I wasnt disappointed.
Honestly after finding this channel from that one portal mod I really have found these videos quite down to earth and more real than a lot of arg coverage channels now, I hope you keep excelling in your craft because It really shows 🔥
Honestly listening to you narrate and describe this reminds me of a weird project my english teacher had us do during the third simester of sophomore year, I was made the narrator and had to describe the scenes as they happened, and what really brought back the memories is when you called the mossy cobbleston structure a certian something at the time stamp of 19:48. XD
Bro andrew gives so much nostalgia my minecraft i first played i was a god damn noob does not know anything my friend told me about aternos and we made a server after 2 years my friend died because of a bike accsident rip bro
Little big planet ARGs when?
Didn't they shutdown the game?
It comes back as an arg @1030k
10:11
Now IDK if it’s mentioned later but I clearly hear dirt being broken here
Keep making these videos, please! From what I got from this video at least, I enjoy the way you present and format your videos.
When I saw the dark figures, I made a joke about Benadryl hallucination shadow hat man entities, and lo and behold these people are actually getting addicted to using the wells.
Though as a deliriant, the high off of DPH is pretty horrifying and something people don't usually enjoy using recreationally
Good video, but i will say i would have preferred a theorized timeline of events at the end, it would have been nice and not leave me confused as to when things happenend lol. Also i know andrew KIND of reacts to the weird events happening but i wonder why he isnt more more freaked out that literal ghosts / entities (of his old friend who disappeared) are just like in his game? this would be some huge scientific discovery but the dude is just going along talking about nostalgia lmao.
34:36 I want to point out how the zombie piglin was agro, so if andrew didnt hit it, that means there was a person that did.
13:10 any of you remember octo-dad? I haven't heard about it for years until my brother brought it up with me and I remembered it.
Yes!
The scene were they destroyed his house mad me cry so much this series it too good to be on TH-cam
you should cover RootHous by ZeeMyth, its really high quality but i havent seen anyone cover it and its one of my favorites
the christmas world was my favorite when i was in middle school! i would imagine i lived in the big mansion and use the.. train? i think there was a train track sort of thing..... i didn't have any friends but i definitely had an imagination
This really is an interesting ARG. I'm scared for the future, but I'm in deep hope, that Andrew's going to manage to save his friend at least, while I think, that it might be to late for number one ...
THIS IS ONE OF MY MOST FAVOURITE ARGS THANK YOU SO MUCH
"Dumbass Horror protagonist." Caught me heavily off-guard. I wasn't expecting that line.
I would honestly like to see a Minecraft lp from you.
Unrelated but I just love that you use Spock as your persona in the video lol
alot of andrews videos almost feel like a solo version of shadow of israphel
I know it's probably acted, but the end episode. Man it ennrages me. I've siffered something like that but in real life. Everyone destroying what you built with effort and love. Classmates becoming mocking demons, your world falling apart. A hasppy kid with his world; i may say dreamworld, desired world, it's only beautiful think.
The sarcastic comments, the sadness, the rage, the pain, the mocking insults.
Many years after i worked as a teacher on a summercamp and some kids (ages 12-14) tried to do the same those guys did. I almost snapped, but as an adult i kicked them of the class. I made them say sorry to the other kid and they built it all together. I wish someone did that to me, instead of enduring that (irl) for so many years.
Fcking kids man, sometimes they are just evil.
they are three things, that I adore: minecraft, horror and star trek. Now I found a chanel where Spock is theorising about minecraft ARG. I can die peacefully now
Herobrine with there 8:50
I feel really bad for the smiling entity.. He was just terribly misunderstood, and had good intentions.. but met bad people. All he wanted was to be seen and heard, but nobody gave him that. I wish I could give them a hug. :'(
I have a theory for the arg
The one piece of bread that is left in his hotbar for so long could be a symbol of 'connection' to a God
As the Bible says: "… this bread, my body"
23:15 i don't know about others but i personally dislike when a cool internet mystery turns out to just be a "cult" or some religious reference and that's all... it's so bland and there's already enough religion irl
22:45
Actually, they weren't trying to get to heaven. They were trying to build above heaven to show that they were as powerful or more powerful, I believe. I know it was something along those lines.
The cave noises don't mean anything... he's playing on bedrock edition... cave sounds just... play whenever they want on bedrock edition... my wife and I have a running joke about that in fact!
1:26:37 honestly, if it’s what you want to do, then do it! I’m also a big fan of the editing style of Martincitopants as well, kept me hooked and honestly, I feel like you could pull it off.
Wonder what the texture and or resource pack that was used is. But man do i miss the Cyan Roses from Pocket Edition.
The blue rose is a part of the texture pack Andrew uses which replaces the cornflower
That could be possible, but in my opinion it wouldn’t explain how we’ve seen it in worlds clearly older, or supposed to be older, that the village of pillage update when they were added. Again, it could be possible but I think they just may not be likely, that’s an interesting idea though if they somehow brought cornflowers back to older versions
@stressedskeleton6838 that totally could be the reason. But Andrew is playing bedrock which is the version that had the blue rose
@@Kenzidagamer I didn’t know that bedrock edition used to have a blue flower, thanks, that might be a point I make next time
I have no idea if anybody else thought of this or if this was even intentional, wether it be an accident of world generation or just set dressing I am reading to deep into, but I think the choice of those particular two block tall flowers with the round pink blooms (I forget what they are called in game) being placed right outside the birch house is really interesting. At night, whenever Andrew looks out the window, and the audience is on high alert, they (in this case me) may briefly see a little creepy face (distantly resembling the figures own) in the flower
i have come up with the theory midway through this video during act 2
what if Chris is actually trapped in the cult and now the other are trying to do the same thing to Andrew that they did to Chris, and the black figure might be Chris who is trying to protect Andrew and stop him from going the the said "land of towers" which might actually be an imitation of heaven. I also think that if Andrew goes to the towers then he that might mean that he went into the cult and is now trapped there forever as it said in act 1 after Andrew respwaned in the bed of land of towers, that "there is no going back
but its just a theory,A GAME THEORY(always wanted to that)
If you're still having issues with recording PS3 footage, it's HDCP. Try using a HDMI splitter, worked for my HD60. The splitter strips HDCP so you should be able to record it then.
@@trixinous I tried two different splitters and they haven’t worked too well so far
Your too underated I realy love this video my New Best arg I ever see it thanks this is so good
I'm gonna be real. I loved the video, but I listened for about 20 minutes, and then got distracted while playing a game, that's my bad. At least I get to watch the video over again. However with that being a suggestion, I listen to your videos in the background with occasional alt tabbing to see what you want us to see. So, I think your describing is great! However, could you also maybe play a few lines from the video, something akin to what Nexpo does if I recall correctly. If you don't like what I'm saying then that's perfectly fine, too. Thanks for reading!
I would love to be your friend and play minecraft w u, that sounds so fun :)
Something about "strange person in game, not doing anything, just staring and typing out long ass sentences in chat" is not spooky or unsettling at all.
7:47 scared me for a second
His reaction cracked me up.
theory: the smiling figure is the previous "save file" of andrew that may have corrupted while trying to get deleted (im probably wrong)
14:04 your reactions to the figure are cute~
only suggestion i guess i have is that you should include more of the raw video and audio since i feel like im missing out. i could always go and watch it myself, but i feel like ill miss something or something crucial will slip by me, and even if it doesnt, your commentary is just awesome. so if you could balance out the actual arg's video and audio with your own commentary, it would make it so awesome to watch. i understand why you wouldnt though, considering copyright and all that... still, i love your videos, man. keep at it.
I will say, I mostly did that because for some reason a lot of the videos for this series and the last one I covered LOVE using the most annoying and loud static, so I do try to avoid that. I do try to incorporate when Andrew speaks but sometimes it’s just so far apart in the way they say things that in some cases It just doesn’t make sense. But thank you very much, I’ll consider that
@@stressedskeleton6838 Yeah I would like to hear the music you were talking about.
fun fact, during the hello video the Minecraft song “wet hands” plays, and several other times with the all black entity.
