I particularly like that you can see his eyes following his mouse right up until his mouse crosses over it, and they just freeze.

[@SirDankleberry]

Fun fact is that usually when you feel something is off or someone is watching then something is. Your brain has perceived something wrong in the corner of your eye or subconsciously but it hasn't processed it fully so it feels "off" or that something is watching you. The human brain is an amazing organ full of millions of years of instinctual behaviour and experience. Between this and the uncanny valley thing I feel Alternate's would have a hard time tricking humanity.

[@steeljawX]

There's also the theorized human tendency to desire completion in everything. Him going around each scene and seeing the "norm" establishes the "complete" picture of everything and where it should be. Going over it repeatedly is the mind being generally satisfies with the picture being complete. It's the moment where something doesn't quite ride so smoothly and makes the whole thing feel incomplete that our minds really scream out. Like a purple carrot in a grocery store amidst a pile of orange ones, your mind is fine with the pile of orange until that purple one hits your eyes. Suddenly that picture seems "incomplete". That is what can make these games both difficult and easy. It's difficult to establish the normal, but once you do, you can easily just pluck out that a room (not necessarily the specific anomaly) is wrong. In this iteration of the game, it helps a lot but it won't do you much good on older versions.

Hey everyone, back for more of Mark's missed anomalies! Mark doesn't leave me much to do here, but here we go: - Mark is doing great! He actually has no unchecked anomalies through the entire House level. The only "exception" is at 13:59, but he catches it at 14:38. - Not a missed anomaly but a fun fact - at 18:52, Mark encounters "the secret" (which will give you a Steam achievement). This man is Timothy, whom we encounter multiple times throughout the Observation Duty games. We love Timmy. - 20:36 - the plant is missing in the Hallway. Mark's "baseline" had that pot as a trash can, so he never even suspected something was wrong until he sees the plant at 25:27 during his next run. - 23:35 - some stairs have appeared on the right side upper floor - 24:46 - the blinds in the back are drawn. Interestingly, this is the anomaly that created the warning, but many anomalies will not occur when you're watching that particular camera. - The blinds that Mark pegged at 28:16 first appeared at 27:56. - Mark's realization of the gold bars at 29:56 was an anomaly that happened at 28:45 - At 31:30, Mark catches the anomaly that happened at 31:00 when he had an instinctive feeling about the Hall.

Sees it in a few seconds and zooms in on it. 37:17 mild - same treatment on the painting in the directors office. Which he catches and zooms in on. The next shot also has a changed painting way off in the distance to an unsettling face. 38:29 moderate/major - first person in this level, sitting in the chair in the basement. After he clicks to report the anomaly, the guy dies in the chair with a gong sound. Nothing happens and the anomaly is reported successfully. 41:44 mild - there are more lights in the directors office and they're floating upside down from the floor. 44:13 moderate - zooms in on middle painting in directors office, where the man's eyes have been replaced by... Animated eyeballs? 46:22 moderate - in the hallway, there's a guy hanging upside down on the ceiling. Markiplier notices after a few seconds and he exclaims. The camera zoom's in on the creature when he does. 46:51 mild - trypophobia trigger. The screensaver on the PC in the basement has lots of organic holes on it.

It's footage on the tv. 18:52 moderate - after completing the mission then clicking to go again, the screen turns red and there's a creepy floating guy in a suit with more UI text prompts. Clicking through two more times makes the freaky man they weirder and distorted until he ends up back at the main menu. 19:26 mild - paintings on the left are very creepy doll like faces. 19:34 mild - another creepy abstracted painting with holes for eyes. Actually over the next few shots there are creepy, distorted paintings. 21:16 mild - noise, coffee machine is humming as it's switched on. 21:37 mild - zooms in on the abstracted painting with holes for eyes. 25:02 moderate - loud beep as game over screen cuts in. 26:29 moderate - creepy doll painting from earlier is replaced with an even creepier eyeless doll face 29:00 mild - gong 29:36 mild - Markiplier screaming as he realized something was missing startled me lol. 31:09 moderate - painting in the office has been swapped for an off-putting dual-faced mashup with no eyes. Quick zoom in. 32:17 mild - 2am gong, followed by coffee machine humming again. 32:43 moderate - painting in the vault replaced with horrifying abstract SCP face art. 33:33 mild - Markipliers loud reaction to seeing something is different. 34:14 mild - same again 35:21 mild - gong. 36:27 mild - Markiplier misses it, but the man's head painting in the basement has been mirrored down the middle. Sees it in a few seconds and zooms in on it. 37:17 mild - same treatment on the painting in the directors office. Which he catches and zooms in on. The next shot also has a changed painting way off in the distance to an unsettling face. 38:29 moderate/major - first person in this level, sitting in the chair in the basement. After he clicks to report the anomaly, the guy dies in the chair with a gong sound. Nothing happens and the anomaly is reported successfully. 41:44 mild - there are more lights in the directors office and they're floating upside down from the floor. 44:13 moderate - zooms in on middle painting in directors office, where the man's eyes have been replaced by... Animated eyeballs? 46:22 moderate - in the hallway, there's a guy hanging upside down on the ceiling. Markiplier notices after a few seconds and he exclaims. The camera zoom's in on the creature when he does. 46:51 mild - trypophobia trigger. The screensaver on the PC in the basement has lots of organic holes on it. And that's it!

I remember when he said in the last one how he won't play anymore after that. And the person pointing out how "Yeah, okay Mark, can't wait to see you in the next one" was one of the top comments and they called it! I am so happy to see this series back, it's one of those hidden gems!

[@apricotbuncakes]

Mark is right about lifeguards sweeping our eyes over the pool! I was trained through the ARC (American red cross) and they tell us to not stare and always keep our eyes moving. One of the ways we do it (in my experience) is to count the heads of the people in and around the water (the same way Mark would count the chairs, paper, water bottles, etc). Sometimes to keep myself engaged I'll count how many people wear blue or something to keep the especially long shits from wearing me down. I think Mark would make a great lifeguard actually. His physical strength would certainly be a benefit, and his observation skills would be a great asset on any team.

[@Antelieris1]

What these games need is a "What changed" mode after the game ends, where you can watch each room separately and see how things changed in your previous playthrough and how you responded. It'd help a lot in playing.

[@Kath2378]

Yeah, I've been playing Para Eyes and it at least tells you what you missed afterwards, which really helped a lot learning the levels. Otherwise I'm sure I'd never become aware of some possible changes...

[@iaml2348]

then the whole purpose of the game would just vanish

[@paigethedork9693]

i dont think it needs to spoon feed you what you've missed afterwards, especially if you've lost [although it's unneeded when you win]. maybe it counts how many anomalies you missed in which rooms at most? to hint at which rooms you need to focus on more, but them again this game is supposed to be difficult, no hints no nothing.

[@Antelieris1]

@@paigethedork9693 No, it needs the option. If you don't want to use it, select "Go to main menu" or "Play again" rather than "See what you missed." That way, rather than deciding to tell people who need or want the help to get fucked, everyone can have what they want.

9:52 Markiplier's ADHD brain is really showing there... i know it's a general approach for games like these, but ppl with ADHD can often struggle with noticing details, but are good at pattern memorizing. i cannot, to save my own life, study, but as a 10yo i remembered the EXACT position of all of my LPS toys, and there were like 200 of them. sometimes my father would switch 2 same-colored ones for fun, and then watch me enter the room and swap them back immediately.
