![What's Up With Classic GM Videos? [GMod ARG]](/img/n.gif)
I’m glad Richter is going back to his roots for his channels 30th anniversary
Can't wait for him to return to YTP's
30th?

They don't know they aren't OG's and cool enough!!! Richter bro was on TH-cam when it was MePipe and he was playing Cave Game on PSP
I never realized until now, that the unlisted Gunslinger video has the implication that what we're seeing is a real secret base the characters use and Gunslinger was actually trying to tear it down, but dressed it up as a wiremod tutorial.
Huh, interesting.
Gunslinger doing a Gaza
it is a fad doe

Something you missed about Engineer Land.
Near the beginning when it cuts to all the mercs while Engineer is doing his thing, the Heavy isn't smiling initially. He looks more concerned until he realizes the camera is on him and then he quickly flashes a smile.
I think that's a bit fuzzy of a point, but still warrants noting. IIRC Heavy DOES go first in terms of reacting... It might have just gotten played off as "what am i looking at- OH OKAY"
@@IronBoy-hf2lp In this scenario, everything could be important. I'm looking at the backgrounds on .25 speed just to make sure I didn't miss anything.
In my head Canon at that point heavy is starting to get the vibe
Gmod ARGs: Make a come back
Richter: Makes a come back
To put it simply... Richter is the dark figure.
Holy shit hes right
me who is working on a map with my friend : O_O
Did you know that you’re a sinner? But did you know that Jesus loves you and He can change that, all you have to do is believe that He died on the cross and rose from the grave 3 days later, repent, and accept God into your life, it’s your choice, Jesus loves you..
Gunslinger if he truly was born in 97, is only 12/13 as of the series, the way he acts downright confirms this for me.
Young teenagers and pre-teens trying not to act psychotic in every web-series, tv show, movie, and book:
@@whoisanarnbi mean torturing ragdolls is all of us will do in gmod lmao.
i absolutely love the idea that these actual mercenaries and defacto soldiers are trying to escape the wrath of a 12-year-old with way too much free time
@@user-by6hw1ow9pi agree, still remember crucifying foxy to a nuke
I do
The skybox console thing is related to where in the skybox the NPCs are hiding their base. Meaning they've found a way to escape Gunslinger in a way that he can't quite figure out.
have you watched interloper? the name "skybox" has been all over anomidaes channel recently. id bet its some sort of shared universe between these stories (thats what interloper is pointing towards)
@@yecksdthat actually makes so much sense considering interloper is also about sentient beings in the source engine
@@yecksd that might be one of the coolest tie-ins of all time.. that would make this like one of the best ARGS of all time genuinely
@@yecksd would be sick, but isn't skybox just a short form of project skybox? The playlist that interloper is in is called that and there's a website with that name on it
Maybe they are connected, but there isn't anything on gunslinger in project skybox other than interloper and some other thing I have no clue about
If they were connected, maybe gunslinger could reveal some info about it indirectly though
Skybox is a commonly used term in video games, its just the texture of the sky. It doesnt have to be related to _project skybox_
16:29 I love the detail of Dr. Kleiner’s model having the same hairline as Pyrochinycal
richter never fails to make me fight in the french army during the war of spanish succession (1701-1714)❤❤❤
WHAT DA HAIL?!
WHAT DA Hell?!
HUH
Same!
Now is 9999
(sampled from a comment on engineer land) pyro is the only character that cant talk, but if you look at how he expresses himself in his body, you see that he looks very.. uncomfortable when hes around engineer/ gunslinger pro.
especially in the ferris wheel part
2021 is def the year where args started to appear alot more
Definitely bc of the pandemic, ppl had more time to work on their content
Tru
Nuh uh
Classic gm videos uploaded a new video 5 hours ago lol
2021 was definitely the year of weird creepy memes. Skinwalker, mr incredible becoming uncanny, gmod args, etc
Having pyrocynical recite the skibidi rizz copypasta was the best part
"A hero rises"
"A villain falls"
this actually goes so hard
A genre is simply a genre, and I’m glad to see stuff like interloper still do new and interesting things with them. Just because some people said it was a fad doesn’t make it one ya know?
Sorta like mascot horror I guess.
@@bobertastic6541except mascot horror only has like 1 or 2 good pieces of content
Incredible comment monsieur!
Is interloper actually real, or its some well made stuff
@@vitonamous well made stuff
Im glad of Ritcher supporting little channels like pyrocinical!
keep the good work!
im confused how noone brought up gunslinger's animation skills, i'm impressed
that is actually true. I've tried to copy his style in inspiration but it's so complex and good it's nearly impossible unless you've been playing gmod and doing animations for a while
I always loved the "Npc's and ragdolls are actually sentient" genre. It'd be pretty cool if someone made a entire sfm about it (Like an Emesis Blu type sfm but with the ARG concept)
pyro voice acting made me get chills hes so talented!!
"The aliens are coming we've been compromised."
@@Shuji_the_great Ouuuhh Co'nel, we are soh fuhcked
Yeah
The bullying never ends, regardless of the time or place.
So glad we weren't assaulted with his quadruple chin in this video
We are so back in the silly era of the interwebs
Fr Fr
Yeah I'm kinda glad the over political and debate lord age of the internet is dying
Can we go back to just vibeing and watching silly gmod videos and Arzette ytps
Frfr
Thanks to post irony
lets gooo
Holy moly, I never expected someone to use a clip from the Space Museum in their video! Absolutely fantastic! Great video, by the way
It wasn't until I realized that Skibidi Toilet was just a GMod video series (like the quazillions from the mid 2000s) that I began to question if Gen Alpha's taste in entertainment is any different than Gen Z's.
Gen Alpha humor is just a mutation of Zoomer humor
6:42 also note how the red heavy's hand and the others' hands are moving completely separately
I love subtle stuff like that
That skybox comment in the gunslinger spectrogram is part of a map compile log. There’s a well known bug whenever you use a skybox texture that isn’t the default one that causes a similar error.
Thanks for covering them again! You make plenty of interesting videos but I always loved your ARG ones.
A small detail you may have missed (or didn't include for time's sake) is that the Pyro seems to move on his own during the "Engineer land" video while on the roller coaster. The general animation of the characters got a lot more stiff after "gunslinger" arrived in his bus, too
Love to see you giving us an update on these channels! I literally just started watching interloper yesterday. Its very interesting but yea its def long, would love to see you cover it at some point tho!
"Good Evening".
The code phrase has been initiated.
my man interloper is going to rock and you are going to love it
i remember how these vids were some of the first ive ever seen from ya. I was always bummed that you stopped making em as I enjoyed knowing about this through you. So its nice to see the resurgence.
I don't remember the last time i watched a gmod ARG.
it felt like an eternity!
Good to see you're still making more of these!
I absolutely love interloper, i cannot WAIT for the video, ive watched any summarys on it i can and i truly hope you cover it
Interloper is actual professional horror told through Gmod as opposed to a warping of a familiar style of very unprofessional video, and it's fucking great. The sound design and the cinematography and the pacing of events when spooky things happen invokes genuine wholehearted dread and fight-or-flight, whereas a lot of these draw me in and scared me more interested than scarwd, because i dont feel nearly as threatened as i do by something like Interloper.
It's also really fucking fascinating while also being horrifying, because the fictional software and ideas it sets up have a liminal vibe in the sense they're familiar, but completely detached from reality- like one of those AI images that's a lot of things that LOOK familiar, but when you look closer, none of it is actually real.
Honestly, it's actually very similar in concept to Ben Drowned, and very similar in execution to the latter half of Ben Drowned after they started the series again during the pandemic.
same
Personally, Badwater is probably my favourite. I sometimes find that ARG's can get pretty boring with a lot of filler content. So being more direct makes it still feel like an ARG but with a more streamlined, well made series of videos. Plus the contrast of the janky fake animations and the high quality, smooth animations for the living ragdoll scenes is awesome!
16:47 the incinerator scene with RED Soldier in Emesis Blue encompasses this feeling so well
I love how organically and smooth Gunslinger manages to get these rag dolls to move in a 0.5 second time span.
18:50 and that pose is so baller
i appreciate you starting off the intro with the classic old white background like you always used to when reviewing gmod arcs back then. nice detail
Gmod guy 2006 using "You're the devil in disguise" seems to hint that he's the antagonist of the story
Thanks for your videos.
I don't know what the heck that outro is, but it's legendary 😂
I'm really glad Richter is covering GMOD ARGs again. I was really starting to miss him uploading these kinds of videos. Love you Richter and I really hope you keep posting stuff like this :D
Also Thesurvivorofall returned last year with a video and another one last month, where he also changed his pfp and banner.
Still the most unique Gmod ARG up to date.
I think that "engineer land" is a video basically showing what happened when Gunslinger first booted up the game/showed up in gmod. It seemed all awesome and cool to the sentient ragdolls until he started getting violent and controlling them.
Out of all of the theories I've seen show up in the comments of the video, I think this one is probably the coolest in my opinion. The idea that he just stumbled straight into it and the only reason he became a complete sadist is because "absolute power corrupts absolutely."
It honestly makes him even more sinister than someone who purposely created or co-opted some other method or tools or wherein he coded his own "sentient" NPCs. That the violence and manipulation were spurred on by an entirely accidental discovery, and that it was a gradual change instead of something that happened immediately. That sounds a lot more compelling than someone being a sadistic asshole just because he's also one IRL.
This actually makes sense, there's a POV shot in engineer land where his TFsona is getting off the bus that isn't present in the original commercial, so it's a weird addition if it doesn't mean anything. The video definitely seems to be metaphorical, the sentient ragdolls existing in the village where everyone works, and gunslingerpro2009 arriving to "have fun" with them. I also like the idea that he didn't start as sociopathic but became that way because he didn't have anyone to stop him when he started going too far, after all the protagonist in-universe is only a child.
I'm glad that you went back to these things. I started getting into these things right at the tail end of the GMod ARG era. We also have Interloper now, which is really intresting so far. I hope you can keep a healthy mix of your regular content and ARG coverage, though. I love your regular vids too.
Glad to see this video as a re-upload. Great dude
This is why I treat my npcs and rag dolls with respect and I tend to make a little break room and unfreeze them once I’m done posing them for the scene or screenshot or animation.
OMG, I'M SOOO EXITED FOR BRAND NEW ARGS ABOUT DARK FIGURES, SENTIENT RAGDOLLS AND LIMINAL SPACES! I hope they don't forget to put a VHS filter over a Gmod video.
YESSSS!! I'm so happy you came back to these, ty richter
No way you uploaded this! i was just binge watching all the “Whats up with …” Gmod videos!!❤️
dude the melee music for the melon man trailer has to be the hardest thing I've ever seen in my life
Real proof that Gunslingerpro2009 is working for the combine.
Important note about "Checking", it was recorded by Scizzy as the filepath in the description shows
Richter brought me back to gmod when I first watched his gunslinger video, his humor and interest (and I guess the subject of the video) made me realize what the game means and I'm so thankful Richter decided to cover it. Truly such an awesome guy and awesome content
11:29
If gunslinger ever makes merch he better make Gunslippers
2:50 that map unlocked memories I had long since forgotten
thanks richter for finding amazing gmod ARG's that im sure alot of us wouldnt ever find if it werent for you!
I love this stuff, I encountered it a few days ago, thank you for introducing this to me, now I’m a die hard fan forever.
32:35 this is like Simpsons Guy
Richter really got Pyro to reignite his voice actor Career amazing video Richter
The Badwater is coming! We've been compromised!
i remember watching the first ones from Richter last year on my vacation in Greece, made the long nights more bearable
A detail that in Engineer Land that seemed to be overlooked was near the end of the video.
Before the video cuts to black, if you were to look at the side door of the brick building, then you'll notice that someone was near the entrance and has been watching everything unravel for some time.
Is gonna be fun to watch you analyze Interloper, that's more of a Source Engine games ARG
hi
Man postal 1 is scarier then this
it isnt scary i just love this type of idk horror thing. Autism
Those ARG's where it's like archives are always good. I love that one Minecraft one where this guy named Mario something I forgot, who's uploading old videos from Minecraft. And along with his friend as well in some videos. This strange entity hunts them down or something to scare them. Loved it.
Also the melonman vs metelhead trailer is based off the super smash bro brawl opening with the music and stuff
Classic Gm Posted. A new video. FLOOD; Its another video with scizzy pressuring him, in the video Gm is walking around constructing which is sumberged in the lake. It seems all of those attempts to look in made black figure in the lake angry. He goes into the “lake” in the submerged constrict and then closes gmod, but when he tries to close it just puts him back into construct but its no longer submerged. He looks around in confusion and paranoia. (I was looking for the black figure but i did not see one. Please let me know if there is one.)
Pyrocinical?
pretty cool how pyrocynical voiced a bit
FR, Its pretty cool and unexpected to hear my favourite femboy cameo in a Richter overtime video
(I dont bully pyro that often lol)
Dang, shoutout to Gunslinger for remaking that first video, not only was it cool to be more period accurate, but also shows just how much they've improved, and how much more thought out the series' become.
song at 0:04?

21:41 no one cares but i vomited watching this
I care
what the hell you have my first name@@dylanmurphy1393
I love that the "thing that appears to be a face" in the cylinder is so obviously just a photo of the Rock, dude really does just have an uncanny look
cool vid bro
its cool that args are coming back
I wasn't expecting to hear a small content creator and a great VA Pyrocynical to voice Badwater2009 at all, bravo Vince
BANGER outro!!
love ur videos, Richter! you never fail!
"nods his head no" I do believe that is called shaking your head
That pyro bit at the end was perfect, the slop consumes all
ive actually realized as ive experimented , that with the gredwitch mod ( a gun and artillery mod in gmod) if you hold your physics gun and use one of the guns (just getting on the gun with e i mean ) your ray goes invisible , and your gun too , but if you change to something else that isnt in the first gun category it undoes the effect , So yes, this could be a really cool tip, for channels that do alot of these animations.the mod is called gredwitchs emplacement pack ,ive found that using 3 mortars at once then leaving them (without pressing e, just walking away i mean), can do the effect .
I will perform further tests to see proof that it is only that mod that causes this in my files.let me know if this helped.
the part at the end was so well made for no reason lol
“Gunslipper”

I left this comment under the bad water video about the scouts being tortured. I think 1) when he mentions something being taken away, he means his TH-cam channel. He's not the one uploading the videos of our ragdolls. 2) each character is not a clone, but not always the same. We saw all the different deaths of the red scout from the same perspective for a reason. It's the same memory. Kinda like how the bendy series handles Henry. He has all the exact memories of his real counterpart, but he isn't the same. These ragdolls are the same but different. Supporting this is how bad water talks to the red scout one on one. It's mostly the same red scout, and so it would be how much he suffers, not how much they suffer.
I thought he was gonna talk about the come-back of gmod args. But I didn't expect him to react back to gunslingers video args
amazing video!
Loved your content,
Love you content!
i like the interloper arg, really well done
hey i recommend watching gmod weird models, its an unique arg about an model being able to change maps and weather, its pretty cool for me, especially the most recent installment where at the end you're the pov of the model
2:50 AYO THAT'S MY MEME! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
It would be interesting to see a gmod arg with sentient ragdolls, but instead of the creator actively hunting and torturing them for breaking out of line, the ragdolls and the creator are good friends and work together to make animations
PlasticApple2011
nice to see old args are coming back! cant wait for interloper, its one of my favorite args :)
Gotta love the outro
I'm glad to see my comment on that one video had inspired coming back to these ARGS
Nah
Pyro's poem at the end felt like ear poison, amazing.
Richter you cannot hit me with that thumbnail at 3am
dude, i have been DYING for you to do interloper!!
27:42 i would like to add something. Many people speculate that the video was actually made by Scizzy, thus explaining why nothing weird or paranormal happens, even when the player enters the pond. This implies that CGMV is the only one being haunted by the weird figure. As for the description, maybe CGMV told Scizzy about the weird shit that keeps happening in his copy of gmod 9 so Scizzy decided to check if his copy was also haunted. Also it seems that the shadow figure originated in the pond, given how it came out of it, and then flooded the entirety of gm_construct in the latest video
EDIT: this becomes even more evident if you look at the file path in the description, which mentions Scizzy
Im kind of glad
Because i miss this kind of content from you
Thabk you Rectum for the great video ❤️
Considering the hyperinteligent ragdolls thingy and the message about a "skybox", and the new gunslinger episdoes releaseing after Interloper got popular... its highly unlikely the two series are related but still makes me think about what if gunslinger is a DM editor user
I absoloutely love and i mean love arg's and love that they are back again!
A good arg I found is called "somethings wrong with my gmod" you may have already seen it but I found it when it first started so idk if someone already covered it.
to further interest in Interloper: its an arg treated as an investigative search through a weird anomaly. its a cool mix of scientific/logical explication & semi-paranormal happenings. its so sick. the whole concept and execution of it all is high quality, surprisingly terrifying, and above all believable
Grivining to you too, my man!
not sure if anyone's told you this before but: the classic gm videos "checking" video might've been recorded by scizzy. the "automatic upload stats" say the path of the video is "F:\ARCHIVE\backups\older\scizzy\checking.wmv"
i think it also makes sense since mr. classic gm videos would probably shit himself at the thought of trying to visit those places again
Gmod videos like these only make me want to keep doing my series, I love them
