Woah, holy shit! I really didn't expect any of my chunkier SCPs to ever in a million years get up here. And a whole hour??? I'm beyond flattered. Thanks for covering SCP-5050 and I can't wait to binge the video and share it with all of my friends. You rock.
Good work!!! Thanks for writing it!!!
Good stuff, I like the concept and although I haven’t read it on the wiki itself, I think it’s a pretty good article
The story is good but the ending is a little soft. I think a better ending would be a message tacked on saying "rogue AI detected and deleted" because what ending is darker than the Foundation not learning a damn thing?
Thank you for your work👏👏👏
Keep up the magic and the works coming
I loved this article, you did a great job with the theme of mystery
Ethics Committee: "ABSOLUTELY NOT!"
O-5: "Oh Fine, guess we'll definitely scrap this and not ever do it."
I know its probably not the case, but I love the picture of this AI calling itself god and all it can do in its "domain" is rant in its own scp file 😂
"addendum from researcher [data removed]:
stop yapping"
A whole entire hour of SCP content!? You are too generous sir!
Another story to fall asleep too this mans voice is very soothing
@@jonathanholland3151 My dog is literally listening to this and he's asleep as a coma patient.
Facts❤
Tell your friends to watch his SCP stuff. His numbers are flagging and he might quit doing these.
Gay
This AI screams "All bark, no bite" in that it'd get decimated if it tried to do anything outside of its playground.
True lmao
Foundation: We should do a huge mind control program led by an AI with human level intelligence
Ethics Committee: That literally sounds like the worst idea ever.
Foundation: Nah what's the worst that can happen
*AI develops anomalous powers and a god complex*
Foundation: *surprised Pikachu face*
"Law's Left Hand would like to know your location"
I like to think this results in nothing more than a foundation-wide email from IT telling people not to click suspicious links
I hate my brain. The fact that "curiosity killed the cat" is so prominent does it's best to ruin this story for me. A pet peeve of mine is being strongly adverse to misquoted qoutes/ missed used qoutes. Curiosity killed the cat but satisfaction brought it back, is the full line. Just as "blood is thicker than water" is a misrepresentation as the original was ment to mean the exact opposite. Relationships you choose to build are stronger than ones forced on you by birth, hence the real saying "the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb".
But as for the videos on the hole... another awesome narration of some fine scp content! Can't wait to see where we go next (lore world wise)
what makes your channel so great is your voice, cadence and ability to narrate anything in a way that allows me to zone out and picture what your saying without trying to comprehend, you sir are excellent.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Purely, just Excelent. Excelent. Perfect to relax to.
I’m here
I've found you Jared...
This is random but The longest someone has ever peed is 508 seconds or 8 minutes and 47 seconds
So true
This has always been a personal favorite SCP of mine. The aesthetic of the tower, the clear Doctor Who influences (as confirmed by the author), the reveal that this whole thing was caused by an echo chamber of three separate plans fucking up at once… I’d put this one in my top 50 SCPs of all time easily, maybe even top 20.
What Doctor Who influences does this have? I've seen all of Classic and New and the only thing I can think of as an influence being WOTAN from The War Machines.
The AI and the pixel art really made me brace myself for an "I AM GOD" moment at the end
The tv just running reruns of the twilight zone is such a funny thematic detail and why I love the Scp authors.
Nine minutes in… I’m wondering if SCP staff would be fans of The Twilight Zone. Part of me thinks it would be too much like bringing work home with you.
Then you find out the Twilight Zone is mentioned like 5 minutes later lol
Might be the same thing of military guys watching war movies, something to compare things to. Fun little thought though
The agents didn't immediately pick up on the "Contact Team" name? And here I thought the Foundation hired the best and brightest.
I like mention of the Twilight Zone, because there’s an episode where this town follows without question the order given to them by this voice from a cave, convinced it’s God, and then an outsider (I think), goes up to the cave, and discovers that it was a super computer talking to them.
Yep...the older version where the food was poisoned
This one was a good one! The only thing that somewhat bothered me was that the SCP Foundation sent an English-speaking team to... Germany. Like, one would guess that the Foundation would have a sizeable amount of German-speaking/multilingual researchers and MTF's.
The language of the town is English l think that is why they went that route
@@lastofthe4horsemen279 yeah but the team didn't expect that at first, and the team lead even said "thankfully... English". :P
@@lastofthe4horsemen279 the mtf was probably bilingual or at least had a translator. What is wierd is the foundation/pentagram setting up an English speaking town (for them to rediscover) in the first place. Although maybe the crazy ai chose that.
Yeah its too convenient.
@@stratometal Bilingual people exist
The Tower had better be glad it was The Foundation investigating it and not the GOC or Chaos Insurgency. Because that first team being killed would have been met with the whole town being razed to the ground.
I love your 30min to hourish long SCPs so much. Your ability to convey them at these lengths is unparalleled! ❤
Tell your friends to watch his SCP stuff. His numbers are flagging and he might quit doing these.
Those are my favourite lengths too! The long ones are great too, but something about the 30-60 (or a little bit more) hits so good, it's enough detail to get into without having to commit to a full saga
I fall asleep to these, just kinda listen and let your mind kinda form the pictures until you sleep… my dreams are weird, but it is what it is.
I’m so glad you’re still doing SCP’s as much as you are 😭 but honestly been loving the 40k content as well, and I knew absolutely nothing about it before your second newest one!
Second!
Same here, I never paid attention to 40k and I hope we get tales to help solidify the lore for me
Everyone is facist and miserable
Except the orks
They the only ones having fun
@@theHUMANAUT1
Great to see new people discovering warhamer!
Obligatory "go binge 290 hours of Luetin's 40k lore vids" comment
Love the switches between lores. Keeps the air fresh and... violent.
SCP Foundation(Ethics Committee): Mind control is evil
Breaking news: Highly questionable organization made a good point
lmao at the MKUltra flashing at the screen at 1:00:13
Hah, good eye there.
Anyone else feel like overthrowing the Soviet Union?
Bro watched the entire thing 💀
Having actually been to Mittenwald, I can confirm it’s anomalous nature
It's wild, every time I feel like prepping meals for an hour or two your content pops up.
I'm out here slingin' spices listening to Keter classifications on the weekly.
Tell your friends to watch his SCP stuff. His numbers are flagging and he might quit doing these.
guy named Roland rolling into a small town looking for information on a tower? this can only end well
My parents and I used to spend the holidays in the region, Mittenwald and Leutasch are really nice places.
SCP-5050: "I AM GOD WORSHIP ME"
me: "no, i dont think i will"
*puts on a helmet made of SCP-148*
Love the alternating SCP and 40K content personally, 40K was always like....dummy thick with lore and needs some explaining :D but don't hold up on the long form SCPs either they're also great!
As someone who doesn't know much about 40k I hope there are tales that can be adapted
@@theHUMANAUT1 if you want long stories of 40k then look up The Amber King here on CZcams. The story about Barabas Dantioch had me crying by the end...
Only War is good for that kind of long form 40k stories too.
Another good storyteller of the 40k universe is A Vox in The Void.
And if you want a mix of outright comedy and serious drama Baldermort will keep you entertained for days with his grandfatherly voice.
For lore: Leutin09 if you want long and detailed.
Weshammer for just great stuff.
Majorkill if you want brief 10 minutes videos and don't mind the odd edgy joke, as humor is subjective and he really enjoys poking fun at 40k (because it is silly satire) while also loving it.
Adeptus redicolous if you want entertainment over accuracy, and everything eventually drawn as an anime Waifu.
There are more, but those are some I listen to. 🤓
@Probably the DM thanks I'm just getting into it and do enjoy deep lore I'll definitely check them out
@@theHUMANAUT1 60% of my 40k knowledge is Facebook memes (I'm only half joking) but once you get through the factions it's mostly just keeping track of who's who and what's what, not unlike the scp files with all it's terms and factions. It's less confusing as you go.
@@justinsmith5870 yeah I get that I mean I get that it took me awhile to feel the depth at the SCP knowledge and universe so I can understand that
The last time I was this early, the entire memetics division could still be perceived..
5050 is definitely one of the highlights of Series 6.
Such a great concept
"We are born of the tower, made men by the tower, undone by the tower; Fear the old tower."
I love all the various references to sci-fi/ fantasy media (Especially The Dark Tower and I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream) it feels almost like an amalgam of concepts from many works converging under the plot of a conspiracy within the Foundation- very well done! Also, thank you for the stellar narration!
Omg I’m going to sleep good tonight!!! Thank you
Same! What perfect timing 😂
Looks likes patience is one of the most important traits for field agents. Lots of self important bable
(spoilers) Headcannon: The infecting AI is almost immediately detected by modern firewalls and virus defense and deleted. That's what happens when you're stuck in the 80s
Not even firewalls and virus defenses , bro has to deal with a whole playing field outside of its own file , from other rogue AIs to things like SCP-0000 or S (depending on headcanon ofc)
I think this is a good example of the changes the Foundation has made since the "old days". Back when Project Rook was started the Foundation had a very different mindset compared to the modern one. The modern Foundation looks at Project Rook as an example of something you NOT supposed to do. As for the AI, yeah it's probably toast. The Foundation has gotten a lot of experience with AI's and built some good ones that are a lot smarter than this one. I think Alexandra would shut it down in short order. But that's me. sm
Going into this one, I definitely expected a tear jerker about a dragon, as is SCP standard.
This though? Fascinating
Thanks for always posting these at 2:30 on nights I can't sleep. You have no idea how much this helps
1:10 “there appears to be a pointed eared gentleman living in the radio tower, capable of using it to attack”
This one is going right into the sleepytime playlist. This one is goooooooooood. Right up my alley.
my favorite part of scp-5050 was going into the discussions and seeing a link to the fifth doctor’s theme. went so fucking hard
I’ve waited five years for an episode about this scp because I don’t like reading, and it’s finally here!
I miss weekly SCPs but man when TES SCP vids drop: it’s like my birthday
Not to mention the terrifying allusion to "I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream" there at the end...
I will never grow tired of these
He just knows when I'm having a bad day at work, thanks for making it better
Tes saying he doesn't wanna do as much scp and keeps coming out with banger after banger. We love you.
I mean when you have an almost limitless trove or content to pull from, I'd do it too.
Its an SCP video with dragon in the title everyone brace yourselves
That split second 'mkultra' was genius.
Whoo Hoo!!! Over 1 hour of SCP content! I'm glad you are still doing SCP content!
No terror shall exist in my domain, only violent understandinga. That line is so good
I loved to hear about an SCP of which i know a reallife counterpart. : )
Also great work as always. There is somthing about your whole concept and style of presentation that makes these stories come alive.
Wouldn't the SCP Foundation watching the Twilight Zone be like a regular person just watching someone do an office job?
Funny part, I have been in a town in Germany called Mittenwald, its a very nice town.
Been missing for a bit but im back! Always love what you do TES, hope the new 40k content is treating you well too!
I'm working on my own SCP, I hope if it gets greenlit and published, I get to see it on here someday.
What's the number?
Do you have a copy of the document anywhere? I'm interested, would be happy to read or just know what it's about.
@@peptalkguy It’s actually a pretty cool concept. A man taking on the personality of other SCPs could give some interesting insights in a way other SCPs, (even the desire camera) can’t provide. I think you need to really throw some unique curveballs with the idea. Be ambitious. Respect the original concept of the SCPs, but don’t be afraid to show personality with some of the logs. And try to go for some more obscure or unexpected ones. Especially focus on those that would have something to say. Maybe to a family member, a loved one, or a truly despised enemy.
Though be warned, if it gets greenlit, your SCP might suffer the clickbait Desire Camera has.
@@tanktheta woof... I hadn't considered the click bait potential lmao. Acceptable casualties lol. Yeah, Ideally I'd be reaching out to the authors if possible to get their take on it so I'm representing it faithfully. I have ideas for a few specific SCPs already, and definitely wanna include some lesser known ones.
Stories like this are why I just giggle whenever the ethics committee is brought up, because the 05 council can and have just ignored it on multiple occasions...or even disbanded it in one story I remember when they became too inconvenient
Something you didn't notice about that spectrogram of the last transmission: In addition to the face, text along the bottom reads: THAT WAS A MISTAKE THAT WAS A MISTAKE THAT WAS A MISTAKE
AN SCP dragon - just after the grand coronation, too!
A great work companion (background sound).
Thank you for the upload.
Glad that you are still doing SCPs
Do keep it up, even if it's for like once or twice a month for SCPs
Just keep doing what you're doing man. You help to keep me going.
36:00 they probably can't say it, but they are totally talkin about Max Headroom right here. Pinnacle of 80s AI technology. Great to watch while you are high
Those long videos are the only thing that gets me through household chores. Thank you for your service, good sir.
Your scp videos are amazing , the depth and length at which you convey these articles is something that I literally look forward to. Truly, I appreciate your content.
Great, finally we have a prequel to I have no mouth and I must scream
The best thing about this channel is he doesn't force his voice into some deepwannabelookatmeimreallyscary. Just a simple tone and some commentary is enough.
I wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for the amazing content you create on your CZcams channel. Your SCP videos are fascinating and captivating, and I always look forward to watching your latest uploads. Your attention to detail and creative approach make your content stand out among other channels. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion with us. Keep up the great work!"
The name of the town in this story literally means Domain of the Dragon or Dragon's Domain. The AI styles itself as a dragon with no St. George to end it. Good story, with twists and who is to be trusted, and why or perhaps better - why not. An insane AI with a town obeying it. One wonders what the AI wants?
Nothing like waking up to an hour of scp content, thanks mang
Tell your friends to watch his SCP stuff. His numbers are flagging and he might quit doing these.
Thank you I really appreciate and needed this, it feels like forever since I have had a new one to listen to I'm the dark of night. ❤
This one has a very cozy vibe and I like the aesthetic of the town with a big tower. I always did like the articles where it's just a slow story where things are slowly learned. I had no idea where it was going but it was super interesting. These videos are always so relaxing.
Yeeey a new SCP exporing tale
Yeeey indeed
..."for integrities sake."...
Thanks for the post, always appreciated.
Wow! The Foundation's employees are extremely dedicated to their job.
If I was sent to a spooky town and started getting headaches, I be back home before the first weird threat is sent.
Absolutely love this one, glad to see you covering it 👍
Thank you for providing this series for exploration.
I really enjoyed this one! It was easy to follow for a newbie to this universe and something about the mystery around the town was fascinating. I could see this as a movie
Hey, thanks a lot man. You have gotten me through tought times. You are a life saver, quite literally.
Another absolutely amazing reading. Thank you so much for this scp content, i loved this story a ton before, but hearing you present it is on a whole new level
to be fair, the conclusion to "the ethics committee told us not to, let's do it anyway" is almost always something goes wrong.
I wonder Who Even listens them anymore at this point.
So glad for more SCP stuff from the wonderful Exploring Series!
Thank you for continuing to do SCP content. Your coverage is excellent.
Amazing work as usual man thanks for always putting out such great content always want more scp.
Bruh loved this! Great story can’t wait to hear more
Hell yeah, I love your SCP videos, I hope more are coming
keep up the good work buddy, what u do here is a gem to the commu!
Absolutely stoked to see another scp file uploaded.
Another great video! Love seeing these!
I can't tell you how good it is to have you on Monday mornings ♥️♥️
The three personality matrixs made up the Id Ego and Super Ego of the AI. You never, under any circumstances want any level of AI to send a message that says I AM. You want a god complex, because that's how you get a god complex
I love that I always end up being awake within an hour of these uploading
Lol, I've been rewatching all the earlier episodes from this channel because it's been a few years and I've seen a lot of scp explained (cartoons). And I started watching because of scp orientation, where originally it was the voice of the actor from highlander, and many many movies. They do it in the form as if u joined the scp foundation and you are being briefed with typing sounds etc. I got into that, then found this channel. Fell totally in love with scp universe. So I really like scp explained cuz I like anime etc. But I didn't realize this was new, I have been going insane because I totally tried to remember seeing this, when I could not have haha. I love this channel!! Scp universe is awesome ❤❤❤❤. Tyvm maang
Just what I was looking for today!! Thanks :D
Awesome one. I like these. Keep up the good work.
Good stuff man. Keep up the great work.
Thank you, once again, for your amazing work.
Well written and a massive undertaking. Thank you!
i love your vids man been listening for years
So nice to listen to while programing.
Thanks for the content man.
God i love the content man i cant wait for this Mondays vid
Thank you for this amazing video!
