Chilla's Best Game? [ Parasocial | パラソーシャル ]

Chilla's Art Parasocial horror game thanks goodbye

[@Illysi]

John getting defensive about his pronunciation of Nikujaga when he was pronouncing it correctly the whole time is peak John Wolfe

[@goober479]

John's relationship with his subscribers never fails to make me laugh. I love his impression of youtube comments

[@alexket8403]

maybe this is what I'm missing from his playthroughs of non-horror games, the defensiveness for no reason lmao

[@cjx22]

classic Wolfe

[@samanthanicklin8130]

While over pronouncing Asuka 😂 (you can think of the s sound as "removing" the u, although by saying it like that you are technically pronouncing it, it's just very subtle for our Western ears) I'm actually studying Japanese to become fluent for future job opportunities (although I'm still a weeb lol)

[@XeresKyle]

It's more like an American thing. Americans just default to saying their pronunciations of things are probably incorrect as to not get flak.

[@meadow2778]

Seeing daylight in a Chilla’s art game is like seeing your teacher at the grocery store.

[@gradeApuddin]

John having flash backs to the elevator from chillas night delivery lol

[@Pestilence021]

that was a good one too

[@MiTsuRiN09]

That was a war flashback alright 😂

[@CaptainMcAnnis]

I think the reason I enjoy watching him play Chilla's Art games is because they always manage to get one solid scare out of him.

[@Seventeenthirtyate]

John not realizing how often girls call their bestie when anything happens in their life is hilarious😂 if someone was stalking me id also call my friend every time there was an update

[@mikiwink]

I like the attention to detail with the references to The Closing Shift characters. Senpai takes your order, the stalked girl is behind him, James is the "no need to nihongo jouzu me" guy that was there when the hoodie guy was looking in the window, the 2 girls are from the trio that sat inside talking about the weirdo outside and the mopey guy in the corner is a colleague of the detective that was killed.

[@Payvul]

We call this Reused Assets and Recycling

[@madeofmeats]

@@Payvulit’s also called having a shared universe!

[@hoodieddespair]

Damn. I didn't even make that connection. Thank you.

[@finnianday]

It would've been perfect if the barista ran into the back room after taking your order

[@CHEESETFOOT673]

I love that Chilla’s Art is creating their on Chilla-verse, and every new game has this type of cool references

[@pugburger5403]

"i'm gonna pick some flowers" is just a polite way of saying that they have to use the bathroom

[@TeddyBearKilla]

You also mentioned the 2nd channel in your Alan Wake 2 episode 1 but people just didn't get it 😂 "MAN, IS THIS GUY EVER GONNA POST THE 2ND EPISODE???"

[@JohnTwolfe]

I was suffering psychic damage from those comments

[@BAOUZIZI]

@@JohnTwolfe Now, we ask you here... John, when are you putting up part 2 on your main channel.

[@JohnTwolfe]

… Never? Lol

[@aettic]

That still blows my mind.

[@-kobo-1764]

@@JohnTwolfeThe channel descriptions threw me off at first until I actually went in and saw the content. Lol This one is still be advertised as your minimal effort shitposting channel while the other is your games channel. Unless that is intentional!

[@princessfetus]

i adore john bragging and being so excited about his daughter its so sweet i cant understand how people would be annoyed by that

[@talloncusack]

Who’s annoyed?

[@princessfetus]

@@talloncusack apparently people who are only there for games.

[@poolaboola]

he never said they were annoyed he just said they didn’t watch the video

[@avidwriter2882]

There are some, lets call them "simpcels" that just upset about everything that isn't exactly what they have or do in their pathetic lives.

[@p0t4t3r8]

Agreed 100%. It's really awesome to see him grow and change as a person!

[@HatchlingChibi]

That "you like milk" to the creepy man lol! John hasn't forgotten strange milk staring man from Fears to Fathom!!

[@NatjelovesBillk]

the same guy actually only orders milk in the convenience store or whatever game you make just coffee

[@kaiikuza8863]

​@@NatjelovesBillkah yes the "milk dud' as John has nicknamed him lol

[@DILFDylF]

That was not the reference, commenter above got it, it was the milk dud from The Closing Shift

[@jasonwrestlingfan1626]

33:46 you know a game is scary when even John gets scared 😂

[@Mant111]

At 15:25 if you look down you can see someone squatting by your door. That's how the message appears in your mailbox. There was someone there.

[@gradeApuddin]

Chilla's art is great at showing the scary parts of real life

[@Gauntlet2021]

Why arms so high poly? I'm glad you asked! That scattered triangle effect is a common artifact of using automatic poly-reduction on a super high-poly sculpted model. That process works by segmenting the surface shape into bigger triangles, keeping the overall form as similar to the sculpt as possible. It's quick and easy, but leaves really messy and inefficient geometry. Typically, an artist would rebuild a low-poly model by hand using the high-poly model as a base, but given Chilla's output, it's very likely they skip that practice and just rely on automated tools.

[@wandatherranova4258]

just a small note ::: the jingle 41:55 you heard means the water is ready. the automatic water heater is the thing that stick to the walls outside your bathroom so you can easily set the temperature while doing other chores and it's safer for the heater system. 01:21:03 :::: picking flowers in Japanese is euphimism for wanting to use the toilet. 28:02 i think these 2 girls are the same girls in the Night Shift (the one who ordered caramel macchiato) but they were 3 girls, not 2. the one girl is still shaming their friend after years they never meet tho. what a shame.

[@melodygray2727]

Bro.... I thought he was gonna get her some flowers Not go take a shit.

[@Stinkystunnedstinker]

the "picking flowers" euphemism is cute

[@pipparice2043]

33:45 jumpscare warning but the noise John made was hilarious 😂😂

[@samwisegamgee1243]

I love how Chilla's Art games capture the paranoid feeling really well. By introducing the stalker aspect so early in the game, it had us questioning intentions and being suspicious of everyone we were coming into contact with. The janky poly-resolution also adds to the unsettling feeling of the NPCs.

[@tacowolf1765]

When Rikiya texts the photo of Asuka talking to the hoodie guy I was immediately like "SO WHAT? What does that picture prove? All it proves is that your ex is hanging out around your apartment taking pictures of your best friend, like a creep." I liked this game a lot.

[@Tyriad_]

John talking about video game development/bugs makes me want to see him attempt to make his own horror game with everything he's learned playing them, maybe an entire level of Red Means Scary, with a little bit of Baby Crying and even some hallways that change when you turn around!

[@qwert_511]

I think he mentioned he’s making a game at some point. Not a horror game though!

[@maplesyrup2812]

Spoilers : In the convenience store part Nina was stalling . She saw the creepy guy outside and was using food as an excuse to stall . She didn’t wanna acknowledge that there was a creepy guy but her subconscious was pretty conscience to reality

[@dontstrawmanmebro]

@22:55 Funny you mention this, I'm an audio engineer that mixes live sound majority of the time. I like to have other skillsets on the side so I decided to understand sound design and implementation when it comes to games. I recently ran into how you do this in the unreal engine. Anything sound related has to be "territorial." Where you're walking, it's basically a mask that--of course, the player cannot see. So the moment you touch the railing, you're entering a new region. Likely it's an oversight or a situation where the creator doesn't really run into until a player notices this little detail. It's just these minor details tend to fall off when it comes to indie creators. Then it gets more advanced when you set the distance, understand how to make it more realistic when you turn your camera, crossfades, blah blah and sorts.

[@PythorFan98]

"Are we a Vtuber? This truly is a horror game" this sent me, never change John

[@jennw4573]

I watched your bébé announcement video because I wanted to see your bébé. She's adorable. Learning about this channel was just a bonus.

[@pixelparungao8156]

"you gonna order some milk?? Huh? You like milk??" killed me 🤣

[@shairaduchesneau1215]

I had to deal with a stalker once. I met him at work. He was a customer. We talked for about 5min. That same night, he added me on facebook, commented on every single photos (I had a public page at the time) and even sent me private messages, trying to talk to me, telling me things like how pretty I am and how close he felt when we met. I politely told him that I wasn't interested and that I was already married. The guy got super mad...Like scary mad. Calling me a b***h and stuff. I blocked him but he kept making new accounts to get in contact with me. He even contacted my best friend in order to get my home adress ! I thank the univers that she didn't give any info to that creep. I can tell you: I was scared to death.

[@ibuprofriends]

glad you’re okay

[@samwisegamgee1243]

I'm sorry you had to experience that. I remember meeting a lot of creeps when I worked retail. Harassment and stalking happen a lot in the customer service industry, it's really distressing.

[@dheu]

“I don’t know why you can’t call the police” Haha, I mean that wasn’t a real policeman. No real policeman is going to take you AWAY from the police station to take your report and then give you his direct number to contact instead of the official police line in the case of an emergency… Edit: oh, never mind, you just figured it out yourself 😂

[@johntucker6252]

Red light behind John because red means scary game.

[@SNP80]

John playing Chilla’s art games is probably my favorite ongoing thing he does. I love the new content on the second channel, but I’m glad he’s still enjoying these games too. I only watched Gab’s playthrough of this one and couldn’t wait to see John’s takes on it. Love the content!

[@riley7036]

The concept of this game freaks me out more than other chillas games I think because parasocial relationships are a lot more common than random killers stalking you. Fortunately your commentary makes it much easier and more fun to watch. And your habit of always pursuing those dang poofers :)

[@samwisegamgee1243]

I always get anxiety when he goes after the poofers, but I gotta hand it to him for being brave 😂

[@Prymbra]

I've intentionally avoided watching anyone play this game cause I knew John was going to play it eventually

[@hafizo_kurosaki]

I've tried doing that lol. But I lost my patience when John hadn't uploaded Chilla's Art playthrough for months, even after the game had been out for long, and decided to watch other streamers playing. Eventually, I just can't. They don't have the same charm that John has

[@KermitsBadFurDay]

The man running into the elevator at 33:30 was first the scariest thing I had ever seen and then the funniest.

[@cptcrunch8578]

I love how their apartment is set to 104°F. Seems a bit balmy

[@JohnTwolfe]

that was my first impression too, but apparently that is not the air temperature, it is the temperature of the water that goes into the bathtub

[@cptcrunch8578]

Also I'm a dummy. I watched it again and apparently I didn't put 2 and 2 together with the bath sequence *face palm*

[@raaaaawrbin]

There are many cases of stalkers finding out where idols live and assaulting / stabbing them, in one case the stalker was able to find out where the idol lives / commutes home through the reflection in her eyes in her photo posts. So I think they've touched on a very real and possible situation that could happen in Japan.

[@tylerbenjamin3842]

Oh, I get it: Chin-"Chillas" art Never thought about it.

[@araru8780]

33:44 hahaha love when john gets jumpscared it rarely happens hahahahaha awesome!!!

[@talloncusack]

It’s so funny how he has a fight (vs flight) response usually, that’s kinda rare tbh- like you can tell he’s boutta attack bc he throws hands at the screen immediately

[@talloncusack]

I didn’t get to this point yet so idk if he does in that jumpscare specifically but in general, yeah

[@avidwriter2882]

About the keys thing, yea. Put them between two fingers or hold it like a knife. Also, it sounds cruel but go for the eyes, face, throat.

Hey, John! Love this new channel and your old channel. The new channel to me feels like the old days where I would just watch you play games straight through for hours. I love the new direction of your main or first channel. You're doing great as always ❤️

[@ryomario90]

When you press F while watching the video in full screen to try to set the in game live stream to full screen...

[@ranaetheartistofrandom_123]

Oh man, you missed the moment where while you were exiting from your front door in the true ending sequence, one of the helpers of Rikiya was standing where you stream, which is a very terrifying image to think about: someone you don't know in your room. One of the scariest things in all honesty. Great content as always!

[@waitforthefruits]

This channel is consistently fulfilling my youtube-based wishes. Thank you, John!

[@paytvn]

I agree! I really love this channel

[@jadesmith417]

My new favorite game from Chilla's Art. All the reveals at the end of the game made so much after thinking back to the beginning of the game. I love how this game made me paranoid and think very hard.

[@Heemi30]

The elevator jump scare got John again. 🤣🤣

[@jennaruth6117]

re: balcony footsteps, I'm a game developer and I don't know for sure either, there are so many areas of knowledge that depend on specialty. In this case an audio person or environment artist may have a better idea but here's my guess; in our engine, sound fx for floors are created by 'audio markup' which means flagging things on a material level to link them to the systems that fire off sounds. That kind of systemic approach makes more sense for a large game where you don't want to do that for every floor. Set the concrete to play concrete steps, now all concrete surfaces in the open world play that sound. For an indie title my guess is its something bespoke like a volume (fancy word for a box that contains something or does something when you interact with it or are inside of it), and the bounds of the volume aren't as wide as the walkway so its possible to walk outside of them and not trigger the noise.

[@moodylogs]

I like that Chilla makes sure to connect all storylines in some way. It is clear yheyre in the same universe. Plus, most games show a certain part of society that women have to deal with (stalking, grooming, assault etc). Not all games are top, but I like that theyre connected and it makes it feel like every female character deals with this.

[@MsPurji313]

The women are always so catty in Chilla's games!!!

[@nini52tvxq]

John: I’m stalking you now. How does that feel? I think we should all do that when we got stalked.😂

[@abigalemiles1928]

Sassy John is the funniest John! But I’m so happy you’re a father, and it made me smile when you said your mom dropped by. As a single mom with two kids, my parents dropping by is a highlight of the day! I really enjoyed your play through! ❤

[@mika7072]

Ya know..John, since you brought it up. When are we getting another installment to your Goosebumps saga? 😅

[@AngeliqueStP]

He's working on it, had an update tweet not to long ago...

[@rosechrisman8517]

Do we know Chilla's Arts gender? Night Shift and this, my two favorite games from them, (as well as the bath house one) do a good job of tapping into the "horror" of being a woman/femme, imo. "Is that guy staring at me just fucking creepy or should I be worried?" is a thought I have more often than I would like, and Chilla really captures this so well... I don't want to say real life as a woman/femme is exactly like being in a Chilla's Arts game but... it's more similar than you would think.

[@htefragile]

Iirc they're two brothers and the games they've made have been inspired by stories from female friends who've had similar experiences.

22:45 my guess would be that there is an if statement checking if the character is colliding. I suppose someone wrongly assumed that if you're colliding with some object, you're not moving.

43:30 for real, when people believe in ghosts it can be so dangerous - if you're experiencing feelings of doom, hallucinations and such, it can be black mould or carbon monoxide. Some people are so convinced it's supernatural forces that they don't even TRY to search for an ordinary culprit. Always eliminate the mundane explanations first, THEN move on to the supernatural
