The Strange World of Minecraft ARGs

[@toastedcherries]

**Corrections** (In theTheBriefHistory part): "[...] he's back to the spawn point with the same amount of items that he had before." This is actually wrong, he has an extra 3 dirt for some reason. "[...] and we can see things moving around in the distance, but it's unclear what they are." They're just sheep. (In the AlphaVer chapter): • Both clips in the AlphaVer video Internal Footage 3 were recorded by Dev 6, and Dev 4 was just someone who featured in the video. • I called "Code 8" the fifth code in the AlphaVer section for simplicity, because we never got a Code 5, and the MD5/SHA256 hash arrays in the source code only contain 8 non-empty elements (all we have + the lost code five). • I slightly hint that the order of chests being opened is important, and I never bring up throughout the video that it actually makes up the password for the second OST . zip download, which was only ever linked through a community post.

[@nixglaceon5798]

i watched as source horror came and went and its kind of interesting seeing the same trend happen with minecraft especially since the stagnation source horror went through seems to be happening much, much faster here. source horror lasted like 3 years and died once the creators found 'what worked' (gunslingerpro's gimmick) and copied it over and over to the point where nobody cared anymore. from what i've seen firsthand with minecraft args (the term arg here is erroneous but whatever) it feels like we're already at that point despite the concept being only a few months old - i've sifted through like 12 series that are practically identical. just scripted footage (sometimes with a vhs filter for some reason? what?) with a fake alpha number in the corner despite clearly taking place in 1.20.1 w a texture pack, and then there's a black figure in the background and then you go into the description/ccs for a caesar cipher or the end of a url just to find out the lore is dead kids/herobrine again. honestly i'm really glad you went out of your way to find some channels that actually have some kind of substance to them - horror is subjective so with horror i always try to find stuff that's INTERESTING over stuff that's SCARY, and for once i'm actually kind of engaged. props to you for bringing attention to the things that deserve to be analyzed esp since from what i've seen these args have basically no audience also not to be a nitpicking asshole but your use of the terms 'arg' and 'webseries' is wrong. everyone uses 'arg' wrong anyway nowadays but to clarify, to be an arg a story has to have audience participation. the G stands for 'Game', with the audience being players - if the players have no control over how the story ends, it's not an arg, and decoding things does not immediately count as participation. decoding CAN be part of an arg, but unless the players having to decode something influences how the story pans out, it's not an arg. the term 'webseries' is also not explicitly a horror term, it's an umbrella for literally any series posted on the internet. the most appropriate term would just be 'horror series' or, if you wanna get nostalgic, 'creepypasta', but i've seen the word 'unfiction' get brought up a few times and i feel like it's most fitting, as most of them seem to hinge on the viewer assuming they're real. i'd personally just go with creepypasta though. just felt like saying that because i see that word get misused a *lot* lol

[@toastedcherries]

yeah I see 'webseries' used 2nd-in-place-most to describe these type of 'unfiction'/horror series so that's what I called it for simplicity, but you're definitely right about 'horror series'/'unfiction' being more accurate terms

[@SteampunkFridgeRider]

the last beta player freaks me out so much bc i used to play with friends on a private server from around 2012-2013 when i was about 13-14 years old and very easily spooked, and there must have been some buggy plugin on the server because i remember times when i was the only person online and then i would hear walking noises really close to me while i was still and there were no mobs nearby, and it freaked me out so much. i never thought it was paranormal and still believe it was some weird plugin glitch, but ive never been able to find anyone else experiencing the same thing.

[@TheStarshipGarage]

The two types of Minecraft ARGs: The annoying unrealistic ones: -Unrealistic scenarios and player reactions -Supernatural entities for some reason -Stakes are way too high for a block game -disappointing, lackluster pacing and ending -not convincing or well-made in the slightest The compelling grounded ones: -Scenarios and player reactions seem grounded and realistic -No mention of the supernatural, just relies on storytelling to be spooky -Stakes are realistic. High enough to be compelling, but low enough to suspend your disbelief -Pacing is well done and the ending pays off and ties together the loose threads -Very well-made to the point where you second guess if it's actually real or not. The trouble with video game ARGs is that since they happen in our real word, they have to have some grounding. It doesn't make much sense for a singular random game to have some scary eldritch horror inhabiting it, meanwhile, the rest of the world is unaffected. Series like the AlphaVer ARG are intriguing since it's a huge mystery about missing and previously unknown Minecraft versions. Something that actually exists. And along with it it even has its own Minecraft mod with the version that is portrayed in the video.

[@iosefka7774]

The idea of a supernatural entity affecting the game is more 'believeable' for me than the shadowy organisation in AlphaVer, oddly. Precisely because the latter is *theoretically* possible, it becomes all the more difficult to suspend my disbelief, whereas if the strange occurrences are explained by something like a ghost, suddenly one has no frame of reference for what is plausible and likely.

[@ialwayswatchyoutube812]

Its fiction it doesn't need to be realistic adding supernatural elements isn't in the slightest bit the problem with bad args lmao

[@TheStarshipGarage]

@@iosefka7774 I don't think it's a shadowy organization as much as just an eclectic developer with a checkered past that even the other developers don't know about. It's not some Polybius-type stuff, it's just a weird rabbit hole with loose ends. Plenty of such rabbit holes exist IRL. (for instance, the CR6 webseries mystery) My main issue with the supernatural entities is them being contained to a video game. Like, really, this being is able to possess people and electronics... and it decides to freak kids out on Minecraft? It's also just so weird to imagine some kid going to school or eating breakfast and then just going to his computer and logging back into the world that's home to some eldritch horror possessing people. "The Last Beta Player" understood this really well, sure, it was at least somewhat paranormal, but you could see the person playing and reacting in real life, and also see how he asked questions on the subreddit, with realistic responses from other players. And the framing is another thing. If it's established that weird paranormal things have been happening in the world besides just on Minecraft, it's believable. But if it's just random black entities that are the cursed souls of dead players trapped in the game... it's sorta laughable.

[@TheStarshipGarage]

@@ialwayswatchyoutube812 Fiction doesn't need to be realistic, but it needs to be consistent and immersive. My point was that slapping on paranormal entities haphazardly makes no sense, and the execution of it most of the time is extremely tropey.

[@Kevinblue035]

for me it's not a matter of realistic vs supernatural, but about suspension of disbelief i could believe that maybe there's some unexplained entity in the game, but once it we get into over explaining stuff like "there's a cabal of inter-dimensional entities sneaking into random little kids' minecraft single player worlds to conduct a ritual to break into the real world using minecraft's moon as a catalyst to summon their god-program" it's like ok man this isn't a marvel movie, calm down with that

I've been obsessed with Minecraft ARGs and webseries for almost 2 years now. I was suprised to see The Last Beta Player because it's actually one I haven't seen before! Love the way it is presented.

Mojang should really look into the Alphaver to get some ideas for the game, it really looks fun and interesting those versions of the game.

[@specsamhain_909]

I've played Minecraft for so long; I didn't know the VOD was lost media up until now

[@SaladaSla]

I appreciate you choice of music. silent hill soundtrack is so good

[@Kevinblue035]

everything from that Alpha Versions series would be a really amazing modpack, i wonder if they'll release all of this in a playable form some day

[@gel-pen-gel-drinker]

it already is! check the miraheze wiki!

[@greatsaiyaguy8868]

Calling it a hashtag instead of a pound sign got to me for some reason lmao. Great video!

[@tacofitness1876]

AlphaVer is by far my favorite as it feels like a literal Alternate Reality Game

[@JaytheLay1]

This was, and I can't ensure you know this enough, the smoothest, best paced, entertaining and informational video I've seen to date. Genuinely dude, this is fantastic top to bottom. Thank you for your work, I look forward to more!

[@arkansassportsfan]

i would lowk pay for a video just about alphaver, it's so cool

[@MistyWatersss]

Alphaver is the most complicated devlog ever and I love it I hope to see more videos from it because ill be sad if they blueball us like that

[@Chinarider1972]

I like how AlphaVer always makes really cool block designs for fake versions, they help add to the mystery of where these blocks came from, and also make you want to actually use them

[@bossa61240]

Well to be fair, the person/people behind AlphaVer have actually made playable .jar files for the version titled "Lilypad"

[@farterduck]

underrated as hell

[@c1oudsky]

well, let's be honest, having a hub between all our minecraft worlds to be able to play with everyone as easily as entering a door inside our singleplayer world is a childhood dream of us all heck, it still is my dream

[@soulcrusher8680]

For some reason, after all this time, Herobrine is still one of the only creepypastas that still scares me. Despite how simple it is (Minecraft Steve with white eyes) it is that simplicity that keeps it scary, along with the feeling of being watched when playing games like Minecraft (same with Gmod singleplayer).

[@brycesutton1395]

Man I felt old when he mentioned the tails doll creepypasta and all the others because I grew up with these

[@buttercupcakey4]

Thank you toastedcherries for making me get into a weird ARG series i love you
