Imagine going through all this effort to make an ARG and then not bothering to download a period-appropriate Bandicam version.
Yikes
lol
lol. Gotta suspend your belief a bit harder for this one!
I once watched a movie that took place in the 19th century and you could spot a car passing by in one of the scenes
@@SneedFeedAndSeed a modern one or one of those real old ones that had little Covering?
why minecraft args always called like “mikegamingdude26”
I mean those kind of names were pretty common back then
Well my ARG (don't worry, it's gone) was called IceWaterGuy12 so I don't know
because it is the most generic gamer name ever
lack of creativity when creating a channel i assume
Theyre mostly trying to go for the good ol xbox live gamertags
When Retro stops talking and lets the footage from the video play out by itself, you know stuff's about to go down
Yeah fr

How to make a Minecraft creepy pasta/ mystery:
1. Play on an old version of Minecraft
2. Record on low quality and at 5 fps
3. Set your render distance really low
4. Add random creepy noises
5. cut out the parts where you build stuff so that it mysteriously appears
6. cut out the parts where you travel so it looks like you teleported
7. forget about inventory management so it changes between cuts adding to the mystery
8. add fake bluescreens that bandicam wouldn't be able to capture, don't think about it too much
9. make a different yt account and analyze your mysteries for the clicks
@@Mamac2006 10. secretly activate subtitles and put a secret unlisted playlist link for people to click on
and make a video about you're own fake mysterie and make money and get views
@@microwaveplasma_ 11. should have a name like "willamgamer1234"
12. Add random strings on signs that is some random binary ascii text you found
these kind of args are so good until all of the sudden they enter "the *space*" and it just becomes science fiction
Exactly and it’s all the same ‘administrative space’ in each of them
fr, I’d prefer if it stuck with the original plot instead of branching off to the cliche sci-fi stuff.
This arg is the only good one with an administrative space, because it was not high tech but more of worlds of diff versions (gateways to the versions) being connected to the administrative space in which anyone could come in your world, it would be creepy if some random person would be on your world, not like mark101 which was ruined due to the high tech factor, but it would be better to not call it administrative space, just give it no name, like seeing those versions of diff worlds in AS was pretty creepy ngl.
I'd like it more if it was like a Truman show kind of thing tbh
It goes from horror mystery to Mojang fanfiction.
John: *Stops playing minecraft*
Illusion: HEY YOU CAN'T!!! COME BACK!!!
John: Nah, I’d stop
Illusion is sad
I'm so fascinated with Alpha Minecraft.
It has a like a strange vibe of mistery, unknown, and uncanny sometimes.
It felt like a much more realistic game tbh
It's not like we can't make creepypastas with current versions of Minecraft, it's just that Alpha Minecraft has a......Nostalgic feeling to it.
give it a shot, it's pretty fun. I've had my world for almost 2.5 years now, chill experience
love and peace ❤
Notch just created the scariest game than all the scary games combined without knowing it
I really like the difference in expectations for a beautiful mountaion. Minecraft alpha was really small.
@SearchingThingsOfficial not really? it's a very recent phenomenon to consider old minecraft inherently scary. it all depends on what you do in the game. it's as scary as you make it and the args and unfiction series don't really do a good job at it.
edit: forgot to mention, love and peace, stay crafty, miners
The ghost story aspect of old Minecraft is one thing, but I don't understand the fascination the ARG community has with this idea of Mojang running a top secret magic ingame admin server that connects two ways to everyone's singleplayer world. I'd genuinely sooner believe the game was haunted.
I think it actually may be the impossibility of it that's appealing? Like that ARG with camera blocks that link to player's worlds. Possible? Not at all, but actually kind of a conceptually interesting look into a sort of parallel universe where that _is_ possible. I think it's more of a fascination with the what if
@@khunt5336minewatch?
the thing that REALLY throws me off about this arg is the bandicam logo. that logo was made in 2017 while all the videos take place around 2010. the original meme bandicam logo was made in 2009, when the recording software was released to the public. other than that, it seems interesting
Oof. Major oversight. 😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬
ikr? the old bandicam logo was all lower letters, they ain't fooling anyone 😭
@@Aphelia.It's videos from his hardrive
You literally can’t record a BSOD without like a capture card, so this ARG is pretty sloppy. Even looking over all of the minor oversights like the inventory or hotbar changing when leaving and rejoining, it has mistakes.
16:42 "Ingrenteds" is not Danish for ingredient, unless who ever wrote it is dyslexic.
Danish word for ingredient are "ingrediens".
Danish really is just English minus the T because they dont drink it as much
Sounds like someone used Google Translate and it messed up as it frequently does.
Danish or Dyslexic, what's the difference?
yes

Favorite part is how whenever the person recordings the alpha footage get scared, they instantly leave instead of doing the classic tropes of exploreing, adds a really nice touch of realism.

I’m h-horrified, I-I’ll never play Minecraft again!
I shuddered reading this comment
It shivered my timbers😱😱
Whats that mean?
Ok the description at 6:00 just made me laugh with how forced-creepy it was lmao. Oh yeah I was really lucky to find this beautiful mountain range, just a shame it doesn't make up for the DARK EXPERIENCES of my friend *wink wink nudge nudge*
"Dark experiences that my friend experienced", yeah that line completely snapped me out of it. It's like that part in Hbomberguy's video on plagiarism where somebody said "resulting in destructive results"
Okay- i didn't know what "Nudge nudge" was at first and my first thought of what "Nudge nudge" was is pelvic thrusting the air.
@@Fartaphobia_ That is hilarious, I'm not gonna unsee that now XD
I once encountered a bunch of redstone torches placed randomly around in a plains biome while I was playing bedrock. Nothing creepy happened though.
Also yeah found similar things that were really weird such as bedrock holes and ghost entities griefing my base. I played on it with friends but it was w world and We were always at the base and it blew up while we werent online. I still have constant reminders of that as some worlds on that pc still have weird occurances
Same. I was in a server with my friends and we saw redstone torches everywhere. We got scared created a new server, played on that, than 2 hackers joined us and the friend that opened the server never opened a server again.
most normal bedrock glitch
wait wait wait it was 4 redstone torches total right? not far from each other
@@chear8145There's a reason why some calls it "bugrock"
Nah bruh, if Windows blue screens, your screen recorder is not gonna keep running

@@anidson2045 no one casually records their screen with a capture card. Also it says bandicam at the top or something like that.

He enters a similar "Room 617" at 22:02 in the other version world, Alpha v1.0.17_02, he goes through that lead to "the mines."
It’s similar but not exactly the same
@@Wyattporter Right?! Just oh so weird!
the first time I watched this I thought he went to Alpha v1.0.16_02 and got way too excited.
@@graveheart9878 Oh?
@@graveheart9878 same 😭
Red stone torches did not exist at that time
If I had a nickel for every time RGN covered an Alpha Minecraft ARG where a normal player has a mysterious person join their world, cause their game to glitch out, show them a bunch of anomalies, and teleport them to an Admin Sector in the sky, then I would have two nickels, but its weird that it happened twice.
17:27 I legit thought my own PC had frozen lmaoo 👌🏻😭
i got scared a bit and instantly looked at my ram and cpu counter at the top to see if its actually freezing, this hit me harder than it would usually because i just fixed my pc
you still use 4:3????

Bro, ur still using Windows XP??
@@SeekPlush_ have you heard of fullscreen
I can't express how much I appreciate this channel. The ambience, atmosphere, the fantastic scripting/dialogue. It's all very well done. Great job RGN
Can we talk about how dude just opened an iron door by himself without any button or lever or pressure plate
there was a split second of a button being pressed and entry of the teleporter

I have seen Minecraft Alpha 1.0.16 versions. enough times to know for sure that. Minecraft Alpha versions have a lot of scary stories and anomalies around them.
By the way, they are new stuff around the Minecraft alpha 1.0.16 versions so. there’s a new update video needing to be made.
You do know that this isn’t real right ?
Yes, I know that all of this is not real.
@@Kennysaco They never speak as if it is true. RGN has covered Minecraft alpha 1.0.16 versions before and they are curious if he'll make an update video. You good?
Early Minecraft had a real eerie vibe to it, no wonder people started to come up with creepy stories in it. The OG Herobrine pranks were something to behold, the forum post and especially the creepy interrupted stream. The guys behind the latter later admitted to faking all about it, but the story ran so wild some people still believe Herobrine was actually in the game back then.
I live these types of ARG video essay type videos, and this channel does them almost perfectly
like ?
how to make anything scarier: put a date on it
When are we getting deep dives again? 😭 I miss those so much
this requires actual thought from RGN, not like telling a story that already exists. all we can do is give feedback on these videos, and go rewatch the deep dives. He will see a spike in the deep dive videos and want to make another, just for his viewers. if you really want one, make 10,000 bots to go rewatch the deep dives.
Hi. I tried to reply to this, but I think CZcams deleted my comment. So if both show up, then I'll just delete this one.
So, I'm pretty sure Retro has explained the deep dives situation a while ago in his discord server. I will try to recall it, but it may not be accurate, so you are always free to join his server and ask him yourself.
If I remember, there were two reasons why he has been slowing down with the deep dive content: 1) He has realized that he can't really make infinite deep dives on Minecraft, and I think he realized that this point is near as he feels like he's running out of source material. He said he may make one after every Minecraft update, but we shall see. 2) Opposed to what @totalsoupsloud has said, no, the recent deep dive videos have been performing way below standards. On March 3rd, he explained that out of his 10 most popular videos, not a single one is a deep dive anymore. Either his audience of this channel is changing and/or the algorithm is pushing viewers towards the MC ARG content and away from his Deep Dive videos. It becomes a choice to either put a lot of effort into a deep dive video and expect little benefit or put relatively less effort (some of these other videos may actually take MORE effort) to get a lot more benefit. The return on investment for his Deep Dive series has been declining unfortunately.
In regard to this video, he stated that he has been simultaneously working on another project that will take maybe a month or 2 before release. I do not know the exact details, but I'll just say you should stay tuned. This video came out relatively quick because of how non convoluted JohnGameLover as a series is. Just note that he's been recovering from an illness, so expect things to be delayed.
I do agree with your sentiment, while his analysis on these MC Webseries/ARG channels are top notch, even better than his youtuber peers by a long shot, I don't want him to become the "MC ARG guy". I do like his other content, like deep dives, icebergs, and his real-life mysteries videos, but the algorithm keeps pushing to these ARG videos. However he is experimenting, so I guess we shall wait to what he will decide. Stay tuned.
Theres only so much information yk. He should seriously dig into other games too
this shit isn't effortless 😭 @@totalsoupsloud even if the content is mostly left to the viewer to interpret the editing is still superb
Still entertaining nevertheless :/
The existence of john game lover makes you think that if you enter names like idk "minecraft fan 1234" you could also stumble upon weird stuff like this.
Another great video, i really enjoyed the mystery talked about here.
Hi RGN! Just wanted to tell that whenever I see a new thumbnail from you popping at my subscription session a nice feeling runs down through my brain. Its been tough times, but watching you has made me feel much better these days. Ty
Shows new items in hotbar "who could have done that?" Maybe himself in gamemode 1 idk
This video flew by, I was surprised when it ended. I was so absorbed in the story that I lost track of time. I love your way of telling these stories and your editing makes it more immersive. I can't wait for the next update! Have a wonderful day RGN.
wow that intro was extremely well made its really nice to see your channel grow in quality and subscribers
Maybe the teleporters are coordinate dependent and they only connect to their matching coords in the other world they link to. Maybe the teleporter built in room 617 was built by chance in the same coords as where John spawned in, so it happened to link up.
I was waiting for you to do one on this guy, i discovered him back in March and couldn't figure out anything but it's cool to see you do a video on him.
i love how this guy doesnt bother about intros, just straight into the action
John: *deletes Minecraft*
Illusion: HEY! COME BACK! THAT'S UNFAIR! THAT'S NOT ALLOWED
That intro was so cool and tryppy, loved the sound effects too!

I love these types of videos, they have a horror element to them, but not anything too bad. Not like jumpscares or anything. These are very entertaining!

Imagine if the main character of these ARG's just stopped playing. =)
pov: time travel in minecraft. he's talking back and forth to himself on the signs at times.
That intro was trippy asf, and good job on the video, you make everyone so on edge with your storytelling
Came across the JohnGameLover channel awhile back, forgot about it until just now. Nice to see that you're covering it!
those arg videos from you are the best
Dude I somehow stumbled upon your channel and I wanna say that I love your into dude, that's was absolutely sick my dude.
Man I love this genre of Minecraft mystery analyses. Even if they're obviously faked or if they go nowhere, it's still just fun to get immersed for a bit. Minecraft is so open ended, there's so much room for the creators of them to do interesting things.
This channel needs more recognition ❤
Whenever the video gets dark i feel that something will go really wrong and there will be a jumpscare at some point
If I’d been in that situation, I’d ask the entity if they were going to hurt me
9:17 i will never be able to hear his music without also hearing "the cows are everywhere" lol
a bovine tsunami
Hell yeah, more RGN!
No way!! another upload hyped to see this.
I appreciate the props you put on this story. I get the feeling most people would rather mock it. Good stuff - when or if it finishes I hope you cover the full AndrewGaming67 saga. It’s a great story at least so far in my opinion.

Feels weird to watch a video about an ARG that not only is still in progress but that I've also stumbled onto by accident when I first found out about it
Now I feel like downloading those old versions of Minecraft again, they have a certain charm that only seems to grow with time. Good video, well done man! :)
The power is out, and I'm outside at night, perfect time to watch this video!
Data, I assume?. W choice
It's rly obviously. There's BLACK MAGIC going on!
Thanks for sending another minecraft RGN. I really love them since the lilypad rgn video
I love your videos about investigating Minecraft ARGs! Keep up the AMAZING WORK! Looking forward to more videos like these, and of course: I hope you enjoy making these videos as much as we enjoy watching them!
I love these arg videos
Notice how a lot of these ARGs happen only in early versions of Minecraft and not the latest. Gives it an analog horror vibe
i don't find it as scary as some modern versions can be
not sure what people find scary about it compared to how weird it feels playing modern singleplayer
I love these videos man they're just relaxing to listen to in the background while you do something please make more vids like this

"As he picks it up, it does not go into his hotbar as it should."
Me: Big deal.
"It's almost as if _something else_ has picked it up for him."

Man that intro goes unnecessarily hard. Very good work and great video!
a new rgn video drops:

I absolutely love these videos. I don’t remember when I came across your channel, but I am always so giddy whenever I come across the newest upload. Thanks for your hard work and dedication!
God, I love your content. I love seeing it on my recommended. These videos make me so happy. For some reason, I just love Minecraft essay videos and analyses.
commented for the algorithm boost keep going man
I said this before on someone else’s video on JohnGameLover, but it’s extremely odd to me how similar the series is to one I covered, now called minecraft mention reuploads! Could it be the same guy making a second attempt? I really have no idea.
I remember seeing this channel on my recommendations randomly, then i watched some of the videos and i was so confused, but found the videos to be so cool.
Your videos are really great, whenever you upload a new video im always excited to watch it. This has been a really interesting story and i hope it can be solved one day. Well made video as always RGN!
Are you going to make any more of those Minecraft Deep Dive videos Retro? They were so good and very relaxing. Tbh all your vids are but those were the best.

Hey RGN just wanted to say i love your content. You take these series and elevate them. While i wish you uploaded more i would much rather you take your time to make every video the best it could be!
Video 4 of me asking to do a deep dive on the creeper
Ngl was kinda hoping for a video about weird terrain generation oddities in early version of Minecraft based on the title, not a creepypasta arg type thing :/
Seeing all these mountains of creepy sinister minecraft footage makes me wonder:
1) why so many minecraft args have been discovered lately
2) why they are always played in minecraft alpha or beta
3) what are all these people's motives for uploading them in the first place
P.S. you and wifies are simply the best channels at producing content on these complex thrilling subjects. It would be amazing if both of you teamed up and did a collab on an even creepier minecraft arg someday...
i do kind of want an arg that happens in modern minecraft (or at least, like 1.13 and beyond)
there's a whole lot of 1.12, 1.9, and below args

The thing I hate about these "Scary Minecraft Rabbitholes" is that, Ive been around minecraft and the videos since the game was still in alpha. I can tell when things are recorded more recently on better hardware. If you go back to old videos, they are all terrible. Even the best ones dont have smooth frame rates. But most of these spend all the effort to lower their settings to make it look as old as possible, and then record the video at 240 fps or something. It just completely takes me out of it. The first videos showing the telepoter were mostly fine, but Im at the August 14 and 15th videos "diamonds" and "cool world gen" and it is so obscenely obvious that the footage isnt old. I like to suspend my disbelief for these videos, since they are interesting and fun, but when the "old" video is running minecraft at a higher frame rate than consoles can achieve, it just breaks down
Was wondering when the next one about alpha lore would come up 😁
I love how you make such incredible videos for tiny low quality channels.
