    PLEASE READ: This video is a FICTIONAL story created for the purposes of storytelling and entertainment. I created the story and all of the evidence you see throughout this video, the channel does in fact exist and the story will be continued there. I apologize if you made it through this video thinking it was real the whole time, it was never my intention to play with people's emotions besides just creating what I thought was a cool piece of unfiction that people could get invested in. Going forward I will be better on including these disclaimers in the video itself as because not everyone reads the comments or the description. Thank you all for the kind words and positive feedback on this video, I read nearly every comment and its so amazing to hear your guys' experiences.

    Hey! I'm only ~10 minutes into the video but I think I found something that kind of tipped me off that this was fictional - The gmail you put in calls the user Con, despite that only being what you call him, and not his actual account name. I'm enjoying the story up to this point, and I was genuinely nervous when you first said it could be a kid looking to escape!! Keep up the great videos!

      I've actually seen two before.
      It's about a world that can hear you. Very noticeable with its green coloured thumbnails.
      They made a video exploring the map.
      Then they made a follow up video analysing it pretending it's not them (despite it being obvious).
      There was another youtuber that made their own arg then a solving video. About a raven and a house in Minecraft. The video is mostly normal, analysing the youtube channel and all the videos and clues. Before we reach the end where the narrative changes and we find out the youtuber himself made the arg is part of the narrative.
      It was pretty cool.

  • @Fulcratic
    @Fulcratic Місяць тому +102

    I like the symbolism and parallel in the last scene where the child went into the darkness, looking at the torch as it went further and further.
    It was a nice parallel to the the child's habit of doing the same thing whenever they explored the cave.
    Symbolism-wise, the part where the child just habitually looks at the torch symbolize them clinging to the livestream, clinging to the hope that whoever's watching may be able to help them, it was enough to bring them to the next torch, the next livestream.
    But the last scene, it represents them watching the last of the torch, watching as it slowly disappears into the darkness, and so do they.
    This is just a fun lil thought of mine, may or may not align with Zacho's intention. But that still made the experience much better for me.

The flashbacks to everything that had happened in the video as he walks down the hallway just made things so much more heartbreaking and so much better. Amazing work.

    that being said, i love this newer genre of minecraft arg videos! they invoke the same feelings i got while reading House of Leaves (of which i cannot recommend enough), some sort of excitement or anticipation. i can't wait to see where this story goes next and i hope you have fun making it :)

Then as the video progressed I got really invested in the story of Con, only once thinking this seems like an ARG, but then brushing it off thinking who would limit it to a livestream.
    It wasn’t until the note on the second child, did it fully click its a piece of fiction, which just speaks to how well this has all been constructed, excited to seeing more!

Tbh, you really had me believing that this was real and not to toot my own horn but im hard to fool. The video as a whole really moved me in a way I cant describe and I wish everyone can watch this exact video bcs the best way to get a very important point across to a vary large audience of different variety (different generations and age groups) is doing it in a way that has some sort of entertaining aspect to it, which in this case is Minecraft, and you have not done a very good job at doing but rather perfected this art.

    I had a similar idea for an ARG once. The whole "arg analysis creator is also arg creator" has been done before (Adam Butcher and the Crow64 ARG) but seeing it applied to Minecraft is refreshing. Such a well-written video! One thing, though, I wish you had taken the time to design real-looking newspaper articles instead of using the online generator everyone uses. It breaks the otherwise flawless immersion of the video and is a little jarring. Obviously they show up for like two seconds, but hey we're unfiction writers lol. Spending three hours designing something that shows up for two seconds is our specialty 😅 Amazing job and I can't wait to see what else you have in store! Will be following the channel as well, been looking for a new Minecraft ARG to keep up with.

    Great ARG. Gotta say that I saw it coming w the repeatedly leaving the house bit that the kid was making a replica of the house to practice escaping, and it burning down was possibly the antagonist finding out and foiling his plans, but very intriguing nonetheless, especially with the incorporation of a gmail account to uncover the rest of the story. Well done

    Hey I have a theory (it’s a bit of a stretch but bear with me). In the Michigan sports email and in the article detailing the missing child, they both show the date that they were released (email: Sep 6; article: Sep 7). Now, this is a story that Zachobuilds made, meaning he had to create all the article, accounts, and emails for the production. This means he had to deliberately look at the date and put it there, which makes me believe it’s intentional. My theory, which is crazy so hear me out, is that this entire investigation was done 2 or 3 months in the future, and then was posted in the past (our present day). I don’t have much to support this but this is my theory.

      Gods, I'm late to this, sorry, but you're not wrong about time not lining up. Currently (the first stream available for me), "why me" was uploaded on Sep 2, but in the description, it states 8/7/24. I'm pretty sure America uses month/day/year, and even so, those days/month don't match at all.
      I'm not sure if it is useful information just thought it was a curious find about time not lining up in this ARG.

    it reminds me of "brandonworks", in a very good way, with a nice twist i wasn't expecting. it reminds me of zeemyth's work, which is a high compliment given he's a minecraft arg god. i would love, LOVE, to see another video, just like this, continuing the story. please keep making this sort of content, it fucks hard and i've not seen anything that captures this level of spirit the way you do with the same level of Reality.
