 		Haven't watched yet so I don't know if its in game, but doesn't subscribing to all the slendervlogs beforehand kinda break immersion?

 		It's not in game. He subscribed to them 2 months ago, and just started it now. Unless he retcons that slendy is punishment for watching them, it does kinda break immersion.

Even if that was the case, that its punishment or something, the fact that hes seem them means that he wouldn't just write off "A sizzling camera" as camera problems.

 		Ok, time for my normal harsh sounding criticism, which it normally is but I try to be constructive.

1: Why the name? MH, TT and EMH all have names that make sense within the context of the story, and I've done the same with my own work, but OurInferno just seems random and is set up for later instead. Dante has been mentioned but other than that it doesn't make sense.

2: Binary code in video three. Ugh. Not going to bother translating it.

3: At around 4:40 in video 4 the guy starts to cough and the number 1909 pops up with a whole bunch of static. THE ZERO IS AN OPERATOR SYMBOL. I hate that. Get your own symbol that means something within the story or don't have a symbol at all.

4: Subscribing to the other channels is bad form and immersion breaking. If this was an OOG channel and the guy went "Let's make a vlog!" he should have started a new channel or unsubscribed.

5: Other than that, not bad so far.

On a side note, is anyone else no longer able to see video tags? I've not been able to for a couple of days and it's bothering me, especially since I saw a Diablo video in the recommended videos of this series. This means that there is something in the tags, but I can't see it.

I thought it was her writing a paper on Dante in college or something? But yes, that's a picture of Dante Alighieri.

But what I mean is that it still doesn't make sense within the context of the first few videos. If they are a couple in love, surely they should have called it OurParadiso or something? It sounds like they've heard of Dante's Inferno and didn't know it was part of The Divine Comedy.

This is why I like names of series that use the words journal, or diary or chronicle (which seems to have become popular ever since I made DDC, but that might be my imagination).

 		Eh, I'm not really a fan of "got a new camera so I'm starting a vlog sorry about the distortion my brand new camera is a piece of crap"

Makes a bit more sense in blog form I guess.

I see what you mean, I'm sort of lost on the name too. But I see it like this: Being a YouTube channel that was apparently started in June, it was probably just given the name OOG, and used IG a month later. Though that seems unlikely, it would make more sense that it wanted to be given a name with NO relevance to ANYTHING, as YouTube names tend to do. Then again, the title could just as easily make sense later. Eh, theories.

But I like this series so far. It's new, maybe it'll make changes as shit happens.

Followed by the tradition "stop hacking my account" post.

He also hid the subscriptions.

 		I subscribed and give it a chance, some vlogs that are now really awesome started as shitty vlogs with random gibberish too, so who knows how far this will get!?

Binary in Video 3 at 3:21:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
You will bur


Also the flashing red pop ups are only colored red, without any hidden stuff till now!

We will see in which direction this will go!

Today, some good news. Jess might have her paper on the Divine Comedy published in a local lit magazine. Since we're both fans of Medieval poetry we'll have to get that issue when it comes out. I'm really proud of her!


He also deleted that 1909 post

jess is going back to New York for a while, I never get to hear from her when she goes home. I'm stuck watching her apartment and the cat until she gets back. She seemed really nervous, and that's understandable with her strange encounter with the Businessman at the gym. I'll keep an eye out for anything strange.


Interesting name for slendy.

 		Just watched all the videos. Went through a lot of Slendervlog tropes really fast but the newest one is awesome.
