Fun fact. The example of unfeeling ghost you used is from the grudge series and is actually based off the legend of the onryō which spirit is also based off of. A onryō is a rage spirit dedicated to murdering everything in a permanent fit of rage

For April fools, you should make one of these except on a survivor like Nea or something but still discuss it as if it were a killer.

This also has the added bonus of causing his teammates to get focused on, which gets them killed quicker" or something idk

Cover Oni next! I’m a survivor main but find you wildly entertaining and if anything learning how to play killers helps me beat them, so yay. As far as video length goes, my thought process is this: are you uploading daily/semi-daily? No? Then take your time, be inconsistent, as long as every upload is worth the wait. Take your time with longer videos, because waiting isn’t that bad when the product is worth the time spent on it

[@Mmmm-vm8vn]

[@ajaxcrackmaster930]

Actually Spirit is an Onryo (same as pretty much most japanese ghosts in movies) and they are all motivated by anger and hatred, including the ones from the grudge and the ring. Those ghosts may not look angry but they definitely are.

[@k.luison7968]

With the spirit, I feel like I’m playing dodgeball in the dark with an invisible kid and an invisible ball... this is just an unfair fight.

[@rowaned14]

For anyone still wonder what her passive phasing does, at a maximum interval of 5 seconds she will spaz out for 0.5 seconds. Both addons reduce the max interval by one second and the purple addon increases the spaz duration to a full second.

[@tonygoesboink]

I would personally like to see ghost face or trapper just because I think they're funny bois but regardless congratulations on 25k dude!

[@Ferixstar]

I appreciate the longer videos. If you have more to talk about then I support the videos being as long as it takes for you to get your point across. I also enjoy your sense of humor and longer vids means more Rowby snark. For next killer how about.... Wraith? I feel like he doesn't get enough love in the world. Probably because the world can't see him with his "true invisibility" (at least not outside of 16m). Also, it would be informative for people will know about his recent changes and maybe teach people that they can flashlight burn him since new players don't seem to know that.

[@devinheath5264]

Just now watching this video but another duo of perks i like to use on her is devour/undying. Decent survivors will be scared to cleanse it because of haunted, but once you get those 3 stacks, just patrol them totems and youre home free.

That part where you talked about the op survivor perks i was laughing hard. Legit tho what are the devs smoking to make a low skill high reward perk like Dead Hard that negates a hit and comes back after you get hooked. Today i went against 4 DH, DS(Didn't get me a single time tho), 3 flashlights and they were all gen rushing. Just came back to the game went from rank 6 to 17(both sides) and i face this much sweatiness. Swf mind you. Rank 4 and 2 doing that bs. But hey. My lvl 12 Freddy got 2 of them after enough tunnelling so worth it! Edit: I forgot to mention the dickhead with object of obsession (ooo)
