15:06 never did I think I'd see Shane arguing that a figure is a ghost while Ryan says it's a person

[@Shaqiliciouss]

this felt like opposite day

[@aavi.]

Everything was the opposite today. We even got a jumpy Shane and an idle Ryan everytime a creepy sound played

[@heavenlynana04]

how the turn tables

[@seanmiller8081]

Came here just to say this 🤌🏼

Oh how the turn tables turn.

shane and ryan completely missing the painting changing in front of them 😭

[@meghanwilson2569]

Open Door was one I saw. I missed a ton, too. Felt like I only remembered things they pointed out and had no recollection of my own. Lol (Edit: finished the video now but I think they missed a second open door.)

[@gigibeal]

im p sure they missed one of the cups in the new house standing up too lol

[@firelight09]

I'm pretty sure the creepy face painting changed in the new house before they ever saw the one it was supposed to be and they just left it.

[@Chris-ks4sw]

I mean it is kind of stupid that things can change before you even see the room

[@MelissaLawrence2002]

​@@Chris-ks4swI agree! I would be taking my time especially when I start because I need to be aware of what to look for. I blame the game for most of their failures here. I'm also not sure what goes into creating a game, but I can't imagine it'd be that difficult to fix that to be fair to the players.

[@katherinearipova7819]

Not me losing it every time Shane detects a ghost presence while Ryan is completely oblivious 💀💀💀

the scariest part of this was seeing Shane jump at a noise and Ryan not reacting at all. who swapped the boys??

[@surbert]

i’m wondering what happened to ryan over covid he’s a new man their unsolved conjuring house video shocked me

[@Afatgrandma]

Idk shane isn't scared irl bc he doesn't believe in it but it's real in the game and Ryan believes it's real irl but knows it can't hurt him in the game 🤔

[@songo948]

I really hope they end up playing phasmophobia at some point. It's a literal ghost-hunting game, it could not be more perfect.

[@dixon-jpeg2588]

I’m pretty sure there’s a clip of them playing it in the trailer

[@songo948]

they will :)

[@lordskeletor481]

i think it might be the finale of the season when they do so, because, well come on, it's phasmophobia

[@slaughter-water]

Ryan and Shane consistently missing the spooky things happening in these games makes me think that ghosts are real and they’re just constantly missing them 😭

[@liamharrison6145]

Now I think the reason they never find a ghost is because of their complete lack of object permanence 😂

Shane's juxtaposition of "WE"RE GONNA DIE" to "WE'RE SO GOOD AT THIS GAME" is hilarious.

Shane: "It's a good game for children." Me: *Remembering all of the nude people and disturbing people that appear in these games*

[@firstnamelastname4994]

Especially the second one with the reference straight out of The Shining.

[@Aki-gb8gm]

that one intruder in one of markipliers videos of this game where some guy deepthroats a banana😭😭

[@jacobbullock2070]

This is my biggest gripe with this game - it’s a great game and concept, but it’s not appropriate or appealing for huge swaths of people because of the nudity and sexual undertones, which in my opinion, don’t contribute to the game at all.

[@kolat2329]

In one of the games there is a guy who hangs himself and some chick deep throating a dude. This series of games & the all the spinoffs are while the more you progress.

[@mylittlebouquet3994]

i loved that they're so adorable

[@nataliap.3519]

I came here to make the same comment hahaha I love them so much

[@davrowpot5585]

If you get to the mid-late periods of the game, probably around 3AM to 5AM, some ghosts, intruders, and weirdos come out. It's a wild ride during that point.

[@siobhan-rae]

i’m sad they didn’t make it that far

[@beesalittlenerdbird5949]

Ikr what losers (affectionate)

[@CeiliRain1]

I’m getting the sense that Shane gets way more invested than Ryan, thus getting more freaked out. Ryan’s just kinda oblivious. It’s hilarious

[@aorta321]

The most oblivious and to think he can spot a ghost 😂

[@pemo2676]

i feel like shane values immersion more

[@mylittlebouquet3994]

I really enjoy reading these observations about the guys and I agree with all of you! 😆

[@hornsbeau]

15:40 “I guess you wouldn’t really know what a ghost looks like, anyway” BRUTAAALLL

[@SecretFoxfire]

The frustrating thing about this game is if something is outside, you have to file it as outside, no matter what room you're in when you see it. So if you are in the kitchen but see an abyss presence out the window, you have to file it as "outside" or it'll be rejected. The game could use a tutorial, really. Very cool concept though, once you get the hang of it. The later games do some interesting things too.

[@mollytovxx4181]

Listing it as outside makes sense though, since that's where the entity/activity is occuring 🤷‍♀️

[@Manders283]

My brain hurts knowing they are spending way too much time looking through the rooms right at the beginning. So many anomalies probably already active.

[@4moly]

it would be cool if anomalies wouldnt start until the player has looked at all of the rooms

[@manda5369]

I was screaming in my head! Chat later my guy~ keep scanning chop chop!!! Eyes on the screen!!! Hahahahaha!!!

[@antlerthyme]

It made me frustrated but in a really funny way

[@carlycchapman]

I was gonna say, especially because in the video, when the clock hit 00:50 in the top corner, they got the "too many anomalies" warning. Like, things start changing IMMEDIATELY and you don't get a chance to see how the rooms normally are.

[@LexAproRxxx]

I haven’t played this myself, so what is the best strategy? How can you tell if something is missing or changed or whatever if you can’t take the beginning to see what “normal” looks like?

[@Menagerie_OS]

I just realized it would be fun as fuck to see these two try to play 'keep talking and nobody explodes'.

[@shotorokis8619]

i play this game religiously and u guys wanted a list of what was missed so i have to!! !!SPOILER WARNING IF YOU WANT TO PLAY THIS GAME YOURSELF!! anomalies i found at 16:54: - some of the 'tic-tacs' in the bedroom were missing - a glass on the kitchen table moved (this one is an asshole to notice bc its so small and u really only notice it if you were in the room while it moved) anomalies i found at 24:12: - the abyss presence in the kitchen was supposed to be filed for outside - the building outside from the kitchen camera had also moved anomalies i found at 30:36: - the guitar in the bedroom moved - the painting in the bedroom changed slightly at the very end - the ghost that was outside was actually just a mannequin part, so it should have been filed as an extra object - there was a clear orb thingy in the bathroom beside the painting that can be filed as an extra object i cant find the others so if anyone else finds them lemme know!!

[@alicen3236]

The chair in the bedroom moved in the last one

[@keira0jade]

Thank you!!! I was hoping someone would make this

[@kaylabrown2720]

The painting in the kitchen started looking at them

[@Vexas345]

You're supposed to clock "some" tictacs missing? God, I would hate this game.

[@fevre_dream8542]

The painting in the living room was wiggly in both run 1 and run 3

[@zuzanakalaberova4827]

The fact that it was Shane spotting the ghosts while Ryan completely missed them is simply poetic. Keep up the good work boys!

[@carmencruz6465]

0:08 i’m sorry but the CAPTION ?! (static from the surveillance monitor just before it reveals steven in your kitchen judging the contents of your fridge) is HILARIOUS!!!

[@littlerileyg]

I only noticed a few days ago that they change that opening caption for every video!! My favorite so far said something like "the apathetic shutter of Shane's camera as Ryan screams for his life"

[@hollymarie1900]

there was one once about watching the new ghost files episode (i’m pretty sure it was ghost files) thanking people for taking time out of listening to Taylor Swifts new album 😭

[@CallmeA_B]

Someone wrote in the comments of a Puppet History video that they write the captions themselves in case the automated ones are wrong. I'm not good with technology so I'm not sure how they go about doing that, but I've always kept subtitles on when viewing their videos because of gems like that. 😄

[@rubykgarrett]

this game is the masterclass in gaslighting yourself

I low-key wish these videos were twice as long

I’m not saying Ryan and Shane need to do a movie where they play two security guards working the graveyard shift at a haunted location, but I’m not NOT saying it.

[@nobodyjustme4363]

7:47 first time I’ve ever seen shane flinch

[@Ruby-jb6en]

According to the closed caption at the beginning of the video, Watcher lore has expanded to paint Steven as a weird, (somehow kinda wholesome?) type of boogeyman or cryptid worthy of being discussed on Mystery Files… brb off to go make fan art of that lol

[@fairfarren23]

As a fellow person who has trouble with horror games, I have mad respect for Ryan for doing a whole series playing them!

[@maebee7946]

that presence at 23:36 is actually an abyss presence! BUT it's outside! not in the kitchen ;)

[@dannyadams17]

so are you supposed to ignore it since it’s technically not in the room or is there a way to report that

[@janalucke9739]

love that new format, please keep it going. especially with horror games

[@normalstories8540]

Only horror games

[@incompetentlogistics]

Whoever came up with the idea to have Shane and Ryan play these type of games should get a raise.

[@MelissaLawrence2002]

Plot twist: it was us. The Watchers of Watcher all get a raise. In this economy, I'd love that outcome 😂

[@weirdnessfades]

NO WAY YALL PLAYED THIS THIS IS PERFECT (Also!! 23:38, if you happen to read this, that's an abyss presence, yes, but this game is very specific. It's an abyss presence outside, not in the kitchen! It just shows in the window. It's like this for many places. Some rooms, like the living room and kitchen in the old house, are directly connected, so an anomaly that occurs in the kitchen may be shown on the living room camera, but it's not in the living room. It's in the kitchen, and it won't report if it's reported as living room, even if you see it from the living room camera.) Also, this game can be a bit scary. It's moreso trying to scare you by making you question your sanity, but it (usually) spices things up with intruders(and even a particular anomaly that'd be up close to the camera and everything when you least expect it). Those things are creepy(in most cases) and some, if not, most, even jumpscare, if you don't report them in time. I'm actually surprised you haven't gotten any of those. But then again, sometimes they show up later in the game. But that doesn't mean they don't show up earlier. It's random.

[@thesnowqueen89]

ryan's point about security guards missing stuff on security cameras makes so much sense though. when we hear a story about something on the news we're always like "how could the guard have missed that?" but we tend to forget that the guard has spent the previous 5 hours looking at nothing edit: grammar

I really love the vibes of Shane and Ryan being two night watchmen, shooting the shit and keeping each other awake. (Though I guess that's their in-person job for Ghost Files anyway. Observation Duty is like post-pandemic ghost hunting, remotely over Zoom :p) Hope they do much more of this. (The later games get less janky about its controls and classifications)
