As someone who's been following most of the slendy related projects for over 2 years now and bored to death by them since spring 11, I fail to see how that game can be interesting in any way unless you're into beating a dead horse with another dead horse.
Nah, it's not my kind of game, I've read a lot of stuff about it months ago because I was interested but the ropes they pull are the obvious ones. Unless the paper looks and sounds and feels as awesome as the candy is good ( Amnesia ) it's not worth my time and I passed on Amnesia because I had watched a longplay anyway.
Yeah, well. I stumbled upon the whole Slender Man thing yesterday and I'm pretty creeped out.
The whole process of this myth as well as the ARG is pretty entertaining imo and I thought I'd share it here 'cause I never read about it on here before.
Oh no problem man. I used to be that kid who'd hear about pokemons or harry potter something like 6months after all the other kids were already bored with that.
Watch Marble Hornets. Watch EverymanHybrid. There are good threads and prolly a wiki ( I don't remember where they were hosted ) on unfiction.
Marble hornets s1 ( edit : make sure to check the totheark yt account if you can't find the chronology and links on a wiki somewhere ) + first 8 months of emh ( might be a twitter archive as well ) = $$$
By the way, I find it rather fascinating that this whole made up myth creeps the shit out of me.
I was sitting there biting my nails thinking about THIS FUCKING GUY. Astonishing in which ways your fear/mind works at times.
Good old fear of the unknown + physical integrity mindfuck + lovecraftianish reaction to what seemingly cannot be understood.
It's not exactly made up because it relies a lot of stuff you get to experience as a kid and stuff but I just heard a weird noise in my kitchen and I hate you I hate you I hate you.
