​@@Zeemythexpain us! We wanna know! Or plz continue the series :3

[@someguynamedmax6849]

The entire arg is a metaphor for grief and the process of moving on from loss. There are 3 characters, being Ell Ben and Archie. One day Ell ends up killing themself, leaving Ben and Archie with the guilt and grief that it may have been their fault. Throughout the arg they've been being chased by an unrelenting monster, being the Raven. The Raven represents their grief coming to haunt them (as it never physically attacks them) After running away for the whole time, we realize that Ben and Archie are two very different characters. In "Changes" Archie says to Ben that "we don't make the changes, changes make us" This quote divides the two characters. Archie being the one who makes changes, (this is reflected by something later in the story) meanwhile Ben is the one who let's the changes make him. (Also reflected later) At the very end of the story, the pov shifts to Archie, as Ben asks him the question "It's midnight, in a raging Thunderstorm. You have nothing around. No trees, no buildings, just an empty field. What would you do?" This question shows the difference between the two characters based on their answers. When Ben asks this Archie gets confused and upset, and results to insulting Ben. He doesn't know what it supposed to mean. This is because Archie tries and makes changes, and when he is faced with nothing he doesn't know what to do with himself, leading to anger and confusion. But when Ben is faced with the question, he answers differently. He lets the changes make him, so instead of being like Archie and getting mad when he is faced with nothing. He simply says "I'd Dance" It's an absolute genius arg, which hits really deep for something being made in minecraft. Also this may be completely wrong but I feel like Ben disappearing at the end doesn't represent his death, but instead him moving on from the grief. As he leaves Archie behind stuck with the grief that he cannot let go.

[@blankyjae3316]

I sorta get it, it’s about loss, self blame, and the struggle to move on, right? The raven represents the hanging guilt of losing someone, Ell in this case. Ben loses himself in this, but Archie moves on. Archie loses Ben one way or another, and then he starts to blame himself too. Minecraft and the unnatural stuff going on isn’t meant to be face value, but to be taken as metaphor/representative of the themes.

[@z-beeblebrox]

Yes, But I don't interpret Ben vanishing as him losing himself. When Ben poses that question to Archie at the end, the same one posed to him by Ell, the point is when faced with something unstoppable, what do you do? If we take Archie's biased perspective at face value and assume Ben can't handle it and loses himself, then his answer would be something nihilistic and self loathing, but it's not. HIS answer is that he'd dance. Ben vanishing is him finally growing up. Archie refuses to. He wants to live in the past - figuratively reincarnating over and over in the form of rewatching these videos, and ultimately uploading them to the Ben2fr channel.

[@Lonkshi21]

Dang, this story is deep

[@EripmavsDYraid]

In addition to this point, I would also like to bring something else up that may be coincidental. The raven's name. It reminds me of the Edgar Allen Poe poem of the same name. Its story is about the death of a woman related to the protagonist in an unclarified way. Just a neat little tidbit I wanted to add.

[@Pr0fessorB1ble]

@@EripmavsDYraidyeah the arg was no doubt heavily inspired by the raven. The raven in this can be seen as an exact parody of the raven in the poem. a manifestation of grief that initially causes the protagonist a sense of anxiety and fear. The raven in the poem is described as a demon like creature while also being unmoving and unfitting like it doesn’t belong like it isn’t real. It’s description gives it an otherworldly presence. Even the way it shows up, if I remember correctly in the poem it just flies into his house when he opens the door. It’s entrance is an intrusion, the way the Raven in this ARG is an intrusion to the serenity of what is supposed to be a vanilla minecraft world

[@charlessaiz2901]

Can I just say that I *really* like how you're using the classic tropes ("my friend disappeared", creepy minecraft manifesting into real life, the whole thing feeling like a metaphor etc etc), but like as part of the ARG, self-awarely. I'm pretty sure this is connected to a greater mythology you've been constructing within this channel (there seem to be several distinct viewpoints, maybe real, maybe just metaphorically representing different philosophies, of the concepts each of your series point towards), and it's actually incredible how good you are at creating so many different styles of telling a story - it's like seeing a sculpture, a drawing of the sculpture, a photo of the sculpture, and a 3D computer model of the sculpture. Each built with a different medium and means of operation in mind, but all fundamentally displaying the same idea, just from different angles.

god this was so clever i was like "dang this is an actually freaky arg they are doing a great job concealing whatever this thing is" then out of nowhere it slowly started changing overtime to the point to where the footage literally swaps over and then you start narrating in 1st person, it completely caught me off-guard, good work man

[@DeathlyDrained]

I got an Essay *Theory* here of what this is all about. I think this is a story about a friend who committed suicide or died. Think about it, why would a friend just moving away cause such stress on their minds? Expecially causing both of them to get existential like that and think about the afterlife. Ben likely feels guilty because he saw so much how ell and her family was likely super disfunctional and he couldn't do anything about it. The sudden disappearance of Ell could represent how the death suddenly happened. Probably even worse if their last conversation was an argument of some kind. Archie probably kinda blames Ben but ultimately understands how he's feeling. The Raven is likely a representation of that guilt. Ravens are usually metaphors and symbols for death, guilt, regret, sorrow and all of the above. Guilt and regret follows Ben and he can't escape it or face it. The whole, "It doesn't move when I look at it" is extremely metaphorical about regret. That conversation Archie had about falling into a different plane of existence until you are remade is very interesting with the end there. Both fall through the tunnels and into a "void". Archie gets mad and suddenly Ben vanishes. I can only wonder if Ben either also killed himself or vanished off the metaphorical grid. Considering the whole, "I hope he finds what he's looking for" I'm guessing the latter. The tunnels are also no doubt extremely metaphorical. "We can't talk in this place". "Stick to the left". My biggest guess is that these tunnels are representative of feeling trapped and feeling like your in a cycle of self tormant. A sort of, "I can't talk about how I truly feel". Even the bed going missing is likely a major symbol of Ben not able to sleep over the suicide. The number 7 is also *extremely* symbolic in a lot of things. It's generally seen as a 'divine' number. Representing God, the afterlife and even peace. I mean, even look at the descriptions. Even the one of this video itself, "We will one day". We will one day find the peace we need. Ultimately. Take care of those around you, we are all struggling and someone could just need you to reach out. Even if you don't know how to say it or how to say your feelings. A simple 'I need help' can stop such horrible things from happening. It can help protect against a visit from the Raven.

[@ThisIsNotADrell]

Extremely convincing thought process, I want to like, but it's at 69.

[@1ebo143]

You were most likely indicating this but most likely Ben had committed suicide as well, the raven being a representation of guilt constantly chased him, never letting him rest, he couldn’t sleep because of “raven”, knowing it was always chasing him. I’d like to think that Archie digging them deeper has something to do with getting deeper and deeper down this rabbit hole to the point of suicide, in the video where Ben visits Ellie’s house, going off the point Ellie maybe didn’t have the best family could be why the house was so dirty and messy, the reason the video paused at those steps could be because Ellies body was there? now to be fair i have no hope for that last theory because it’s so far fetched to the point where I’m just yapping, but I’m just adding my thoughts here to try and get to the bottom of this arg. (EDIT: okay I literally just posted this comment but I can’t get this arg off my mind sooo, you mentioned this I think but before Eli’s died ben was probably arguing with her, Ben probably had a mix of guilt from losing his friend (if they were friends and from the fact that Ben had been arguing with her before she died, never getting to apologize or anything, which may explain why Ben occasionally types “sorry” befire deleting it in reunion, okay, I think I’m done here now, I’ll add any more thoughts on this if I think of any.)

[@ryantalley5284]

The funniest part about this is knowing Archie is narrating this and watching the part where he talks about how he's incredibly smart when it comes to the details of this game because he knows about chunk trails, because in retrospect, he is literally taking time out of the video to meticulously explain to the viewer how smart he perceives himself as for literally no reason.

I started to tell towards the end that this wasn't about some random Minecraft horror, but that this was about grief. Grief that I know quite well. I was a very lonely child. I have an older sister but we're just too far away in age that we can never connect. I Minecraft through her, but she never wanted to spend time with me so I used it as a coping mechanism. Through the game I met a lot of people. My world widened and I found a glimpse of what it's like to have friends, even a family. My best friend was someone I had never met before. Even though we had never seen each other in person, being online made us always accessible. We could always hop on the game or talk no matter where we were. The thing I was never ready for was something I'd never feared: growing up. I never thought that one day we suddenly would become people of our own, without needing an online identity to feel.. full. Complete. So when the day came that we all just had to.. move on, I couldn't accept it. I wasn't full or complete. I was still lonely. I searched for days. Months. I searched and searched, with message after message. I stayed in that server we had in hopes he'd one day come back. Eventually the messages never went through. He had disappeared and I was left with nothing. I was angry for so long. Why did he leave? Why was I not enough for him anymore? Why was I still so alone in such a wide world? I eventually found peace. I stopped asking those questions. I stopped looking. Sometimes the grief still haunts me, but I've found a life outside of it. I think a lot of us are grown up now. We have jobs and futures ahead of us. We have found more to life than games and severs. I still have an online presence, for those friends that never slipped through the cracks. But I also made sure my life is full in every aspect I could make it. I don't know what happened to him but I like to think he found peace too in whatever he is or whatever he's doing. You don't have to take away anything from my words, but in some very odd way this video has helped me find a bit more closure.

I read a lot of comments and I came to this conclusion. The question that Ben asked Archie (which he couldn't answer) was like Ben saying "if you already knew that death would be upon you, what would you do?" Ben says to Archie that He'd dance. Meaning that he'd take up the option full face. From what I can understand as a short summary, this is a story about 3 friends. Ell, Ben and Archie. Ell past away due to suicide, either by an abusive family or harsh environment as seen in their broken down house. The hallways under Ell's house is a representation of her going back and forth, feeling the same depressed feeling over and over again. She tried and hoped that Ben would understand, telling him to not speak within the hallways. For some reason, she couldnt tell him how she felt, nor did she want to burden her friend. When she realized that Ben couldnt understand her (because he started talking) she left. And that was the last time Ben saw her. Ben then became guilty. Guilty of the fact that he had done something wrong. Guilty that it was him who was the final reason that gave Ell the push to end it all. What happened next is what we have seen in this series. The random structures, the weirdly placed torches, even the raven that followed were all physical manifestations of Ben's guilt. And Just like guilt, it can never physically hurt you, but it mentally destroy you. The Raven was acceptance. If he faced the Raven head on, maybe he couldve changed. But he ran. He ran and ran, and the guilt became even more profound. When Archie came back, he tried to talk sense into Ben. He tried to give him a solution that he should change himself and not allow environmental or others things change who he is. But how can you fix something that is broken beyond repair? Its not like we wanted to live like this. We played with the cards we got. We win or lose. And Ell lost. Just as Ben did. When they were in the hallways for the last time, that was the last manifestation of Bens guilt. Just like what Ben did, Archie broke the rules and spoke. And after aimlessly wondering the corridors, finding no conclusion, Ben eventually apologized and left without a single word. Leaving Archie stunned and maybe with the same Guilt that Ben had when Ell past.

[@RavenTheSergal]

Dude, the sudden shift to archies perspective and into first person was so fucking cool. "The only connection 'I' see is to ells username" also showing the only possible way he could know the viewpoint is being the author, straight back to "some way for ben to read into archie" as he genuinely gets frustrated at the situation before him for a moment, then the panic to why hes angry, and then, its over, it happened.

The most heartbreaking thing about this is that with the phrases "I'd dance" and "we will, one day" is archie saying they will meet again one day in the afterlife when it's time for archie to go 'missing'. and another thing about the so called 'raven' monster that follows ben and archie (that I haven't seen yet in the comments) is that ravens are the symbol for death so this whole-time ben was trying to live on, essentially, for ell and try not to let the death thoughts get to him but in the end, he gave up, and Archie in the end almost gave up but decided to live on to tell bens and ells story so people won't forget them. That was my little rant about what I got from this saddening ARG.

[@fallentoashes7452]

Zeemyth suddenly starts speaking as if He had spoken to Ben in person, revealing HE is Archie.

[@gamerdragon4721]

@@fallentoashes7452 and the perspective changes too, from Ben’s to Archie’s right when Zeemyth stops talking like Zeemyth and starts talking like Archie… :0 Also he says the exact same thing that Ben’s channel description says at 32:14 implying that HE is the one who’s been running it this whole time. :P Furthermore, the message from the description that he quotes goes as follows “this was some time ago, but I go back to watch these here and there. it’s nice” but then while quoting it he also adds “it’s nice to know that each time I find something that I missed, something that helps me understand what he was going through or what even happened.” And if you look at the description of Ben’s channel, the message doesn’t have a “ . “ at the end which could be implying that it’s incomplete, and that this new addition to the message is probably the intended complete version of the message! :D

Omg, it just dawned on me at the end that the narration had always been from Archie's point of view after watching the videos from Ben's pov, then it switches to Archie's pov in the present where Ben just vanishes like Ell did. This "Analysis" video was so good! I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did

[@Febewhitehorn1234]

I feel like all the version inconsistencies (sprinting, book and quills, health regenerating, sword sweeping attacks, food stacking, etc) add to what I believe one of the themes of this story is, being trapped in the past. Ben is constantly trying to assign meaning to what happened to Ell. He's so focused on it that he neglects his real life and puts himself through playing Minecraft even while he's being hunted by the Raven. This is even stronger if the theory that Ell didn't "move away" and instead committed suicide is true. Ben is trying to find some hidden reason to why Ell killed himself when there might not have been any. In forcing himself to search for a reason Ben doesn't allow himself to move on. Instead searching through these memories and places causes them to distort, adding a monster that hunts him and rapidly decaying Ell's house. It's possible that Archiet could be intended to show a more healthy way of dealing with trauma, or maybe just a different unhealthy way, I'm not sure.

"This is even stronger if the theory that Ell didn't "move away" and instead committed suicide is true." A better theory is that Ell died from an illness or cancer. It explains their fruitless yet deeply regimented hunting through corridors for something imperceptible, the same way you'd go through batteries of treatments to try stabilizing a terminal illness. Notice the supposed "wires" Archie points out aren't redstone blocks, they're netherbrick - because they're meant to portray blood vessels. And the thing is, Ell *could* have killed themselves for a reason - even an irrational one - and learning it may or may not provide closure. But a disease has no reason. It can't be solved or rationalized at all. It's like an approaching storm in an open field. You can't run from it or hide from it. What would you do? Ben's immediate reaction to Ell's impossible question is, in the end, the most appropriate one, but Ben doesn't accept it himself until he finally catches up with Archie again and sees himself in him - someone with survivor's guilt, running as hard as they can from acceptance, living (literally, by playing this seed) in the past. When he finally realizes this he poses the same question to Archie, knowing he knows where it came from, and knowing Archie has seen video of Ben's own answer. When he leaves, he moves on. Archie though, he doesn't move on. He literally relives his past, rewatching these videos over and over - reposting them to the ben2fr channel, as he admits in the end, and then ultimately creating this so-called analysis video. He's still trying to rationalize something that cannot be rationalized.

When that twist hits it's just amazing. It's Archiet all this time, telling the story from his perspective, it's just him trying to figure out what does the recordings mean, how did things go wrong, how did both his friends dissapear in a game seemingly unrelated to their actual life. That's why Ben and El's voice uses some kind of TTS/Voice Changer while Archie uses the narrator's, because the narrator IS Archie.

Your patron calling the entity a "raven" is likely a reference to the game Monument Valley, as the ravens from there closely resemble it. Just my thoughts, haven't finished the video yet

A pretty long comment, but these are things I feel I must say. This genuinely made me cry after I finished watching it. This is simply the best way I've seen to portray this kind of topic; guilt, regret and death. It's a story about a friend group falling apart bit by bit disguised as an analog horror. It hit me hard because of the fact I've gone so close to experiencing all three perspectives. I especially relate to Archie because I've had many people almost take their lives while I have no control over it. No way to help or recognize what's happening. Thankfully, nothing this bad had happened in my life yet, but the feeling still persists as a lingering fear of not doing enough that will result in something like that happening. In the end, it's important to recognize that you are doing your best. Keep communication open with your friends, you can never know when they might need help. Amazing video, great work 👍

[@croissantcoke]

idea of an ARG: (main character) and his friend are experimenting with changing their world to older versions, when they change it to an alpha version, they find something strange in their world (pretty big and been played over a year, in which both of the main characters are good builders) that slowly makes itself more present. they revert their world back to a newer version after a bit of investigation, as they decide that they don't want to deal with whatever this thing is. The world is now at 1.17, and after a long time (time jump) they decide to make their world into the latest minecraft update, in which they find this "thing" once again. They hadn't thought about it since they went into that alpha version, and start to get freaked out since they thought it was only in older versions. the creature somehow captures his friend, and he isn't able to find it, however the creature loves to play with it's victims, so it set down a sign at his house, saying "dimension" along with a book reading "1.4". this leads down a rabbit hole of lore and things, but the main thing is that he tries to save his friend, who is being trapped in different versions of the world by the monster, and the main character has to solve clues while surviving to try to find him before he gets trapped in another. this keeps going until more and more things go down, until something happens at the end but the ending is not something i'm worried about. just the plot.

I really love how deep the story is despite being surrounded by all these clever gimmicks - the subtle game mods to make the whole game feel off, the careful perspective tricks, the meta twist. We can't be sure what happened to Ell. There appears to be zero evidence left in any of the videos or analysis thereof to indicate why Ell is gone. Were they taken by an illness? Did they run off from an abusive home? Snatched away by some eldritch impossible thing with a hundred eyes and ten frowns that aren't frowns? It could be anything, but the point is that they're gone, their going could not be prevented, and there is no rational explanation for it. It's like an approaching storm in an open field. You can't run from it or hide from it. What would you do? Ben's immediate reaction to Ell's impossible question is, in the end, the most appropriate one, but Ben doesn't accept it himself until he finally catches up with Archie again and sees himself in him - someone with survivor's guilt, running as hard as they can from acceptance, living (literally, by playing this seed) in the past. An impossible, crumbling, decaying past full of guilt and loathing - in a way its own kind of comfort. When he finally realizes this he poses the same question to Archie, hoping perhaps, that he'll reach the same conclusion in his own time. When Ben leaves, he moves on. Maybe to Ell, maybe to his own place...maybe just back to reality. Archie though, he doesn't move on. He literally relives his past, rewatching these videos over and over, and then ultimately creating this so-called analysis video. He's still trying to rationalize something that cannot be rationalized. He wants this to be deeper, for there to be more. He wants tragedy to be a puzzle you can solve. And the crazy thing? If that preview at the end of this is meant to be for a video connected to this story? He might be right.
