So I was lurking on /x/ & someone posted this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7jrsLi3Tf4
I'm pretty sure it's nothing more than a game jack, which is why I'm posting it here haha.

Also, huzzah for my first post! Smile

Haha, I was just about to come over here from /x/ and post it. Probably a game jack, but I'm gonna keep an eye on it.

Yeah that seems a tad... not their style. Reminds me too much of the Dayman. Fighter of the Nightman. Champion of the sun.

I can't tell if it's a 'real' gamejack or someone just pulling an elaborate meta-joke. The style is so far off that it's almost funny.

1) Windmill is a really dumb name. I mean, totheark is really weird, but windmill is just dumb.
2) The language is really clumsy, and not in the cryptic totheark style that we all know and love. "One can only hope that you are still, indeed, alive." "Names, in this case, serve as no more than a catalyst of contact." Ugh.
3) Marble Hornets has never been about good vs evil, and it's a bit late in the game to inject a new theme.
4) There is no way that the writers intend to end the story by having Jay stab the Operator with Teh Sekrit Magickal Nife or whatever dumb bullshit the narrator is alluding to.

This is like if totheark was re-imagined by a kid hopped up on a combination of Mountain Dew and 36 solids hours of Final Fantasy.

For the people complaining about the length/complicatedness of EmH, I wrote a summary here: http://everymanhybrid.wikia.com/wiki/Plot_Summary

I recommend reading the long summary while watching the videos. Don't concern yourself with Can You See The Words, twitter, Ustream, the boxes, purple wristbands, and the 7 Trials of HABIT or other miscellenia too much. Those specifics are rather unimportant. Pay attention to the main channel. Pay attention to Alex's channel. Understand the basic gists of the arcs Understand what was in the caches but don't pay too much attention to them (like, just read the wiki article..don't bother with the videos)....go back after you caught up with the series. Don't concern yourself with the Tournament...just recognize that it's going on.

The main thrust of the series is solving the Mining Town Four mystery. Why do these four children have the same name as the four main characters, and what is the deal is with HABIT? That's really all that matters. It should only take 3 hours to watch EmH and understand the important stuff (the series is about 2.5 hours long, should take a half hour to understand whats in the caches, etc).

A movie I made

I took some inspiration from Marble Hornets to make this film. Adam from TribeTwelve really liked it and so did many other people. I am now considering to make a Slendervlog and I would like to know if people think that would be a good move or not. So if you have 15 minutes, please enjoy DIGITAL PERSPECTIVE
(btw, it has robots in it Smile !)

The whole light-flashing thing reminded me of the game Daedalus Encounter.

I'll just leave this here. (Parody of the gamejacks)

youtube.com/user/supermegagigaproxy

And that too. (Parody of the parody of the gamejacks' obvious ripoffs of Totheark)

Awesome Parody
Pure Hilarity

I found this awesome parody of MH made by some guys in England. It's hilarious, they have this giant life size pink panther as SlenderMan lmao

Its called Granite Moths (like MH lol) http://www.youtube.com/user/GraniteMoths

And the have a TTA called ToTheRC
http://www.youtube.com/user/ToTheRC

Framed as Alec Krayfish shooting a film, and it just gets better. Framing for it is corny, but it actually follows MH pretty well. They're up to the end of season 1 at the moment. I think they're worth watching XD

I know, I know: old thread. BUT I found another bad gamejack whose channel is like a hub for awful tta-knockoffs:
youtube.com/thebloodymourning

and let me just say: the newer gamejackers are so cheesy they belong on top of nachos.

I loved ohgodhesatmywindow until he started doing the IDIOSYNCRASY'S ORDEALS thing. It made it a little boring in my opinion.
