clues

is anyone else getting frustrated? i love marble hornets but I was thinking about it today and realized there haven't been any concrete resolutions or progression in this game ... ever. It just keeps getting more confused as time goes on. thoughts?

Well none of us know for sure it is a game.

I have the feeling it's going to be extremely long-term. The way I see it, this whole, "going through the videos" thing may have just been a way of getting the project off the ground, making way for the real game.

As in, this is all setting up for when J decides to go search for Alex, and the game itself is the search for him. We would use clues found during this opening stage to work through puzzles that come up during the search. Or, it could just be a really drawn-out piece of interactive fiction. No puzzles, per se, just a new way of telling a story.

Of course, that's just wild speculation. But I think the first idea could be really fun.

This.

That aside, you may consider this a game (and play it), or you may not. Nevertheless, I have seen things that call themselves games but are less gamelike than this, and every game has its slow points and, in some cases, its prologues. Each game is unique.

i agree, this shouldn't be its own thread, new here, been lurking, made a mistake. But I still think that in terms of narrative, we should have been given SOMETHING to actually work with by now. I am still holding nothing but fragments of MH and the fear of SM, same as since entry 3. I'd like a twist or at least a puzzle, so far we have had nothing in terms of ARG or story, just badass videos every week or two. Sorry again, shouldn't have been a topic, just a comment.
