    What i took away from this story is that Bing Soy is definitely an interesting and creative person. Thanks for documenting his enigmatic presence! I can't help but feel pride in contributing to this story in such a passive way - the fact that you guys were able to so consistently encounter Bing Soy and watch his antics is a big part of what makes community servers so essential to the spirit of TF2.

      I perceive it a bit differently. I think he may believe that if he made any decision from his past different, he knows that he would've been sad. He doesn't regret his choices and knowing that his current self isn't wound up in a sad place, he wonders what the future developments in his life will bring him.

    • @jacob1107
      @jacob1107 Місяць тому

      I instantly recognized it as something akin to a binary search tree. And, all of the explored locations have sadness. I interpreted it as he's tried so many different things in the past, but unfortunately, all of them have had sadness/disappointment. The one bit of hope is the question mark - looking towards the future. Makes me wonder what the other avenues were. Different games, different channels, different lifestyles?

      Well, you know, he could be saying about his personal life, not tf2. Many people feel very lonely and left alone, even with thousands people on the internet watching you. You don't need a million unknown people that will never help you, sometimes, you just need 1 good friend that will make your whole life easier.

    I imagine the "blank page answer" to your final question really meant that TF2 is a blank canvas, and you should paint on it to make it your own painting, symbolizing that you should make how you play your own, instead of following meta or other people's way of playing, AKA, have fun.

      I 100% agree. His pixel art is very nice. It's easy to look at, and effective at conveying his messages. I think the reason he communicates this way is because it gets you to think about his messages rather than just hearing words. Words sometimes go over our heads, but if we're forced to think about it, it could very well more easily change our perspective.

    -Plays Tf2 in very unconventional ways.
    -Sends a google drive link with pictures instead of simple answers.
    -Makes impressive pixel art.
    -Has great editing skills on his channel.
    -Is committed to the silence.
    I hope Bing Soy keeps on enjoying and TF2 and inspires others to embrace the wacky and chaotic charm that TF2 can bring.

    I have actually played Inscryption with some friends and so in game the wizards whole things is that he was sensory deprived and thus wanted to seek stimulation, so i think the image of the wizard means that Bing Soy no longer gets the stimulation he wants from playing TF2 conventionally, but the unconventional methods give him some overall fun. (just a theory and I know like no one will read this so if you did then thanks to you and to Bing Soy)

    @ryan_1314 4 місяці тому +51

    After watching the video and reading comments, I really like bing soy's unique approach to everything. It's probably out of boredom, but also to find new ways of doing things that may be better than stardard ways. Even his QnA answers were unique; instead of answering with text or live chat, he answered with images, and whether purposeful or not, provides a level of ambiguity to his answers where several meanings could be drawn. I've seen other channels do videos of unique strategies like shortstop ledge camping or teammates killbinding and providing infinite cabers, but those are just youtubers playing gimmics for a video topic, while bing soy seems to do it for fun regardless of it being recorded. He's really a breath of fresh air to the tf2 community, and a reminder to have fun playing around instead of constantly trying to win 100% efficiently. I've had plenty of funny loadouts I've wanted to try such as dropping down and holiday punching an unsuspecting enemy before burning them with huo fire, and seeing someone else go for crazy trickshots like that gives me all the more reason to try those out. Thank you bing for keeping the game fresh, keep finding new ways for you to have fun, and godspeed. o7

      Stuff that you learn to do out of "quirks" from the game engine. Such as rocket jumping or ninjaneering

      This world is rapidly passing away and I hope that you repent and take time to change before all out disaster occurs! Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36) if you believed in Messiah you would be following His commands as best as you could. If you are not a follower of Messiah I would highly recommend becoming one. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life - Revelation 3:20.
      Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13 over the course of 1260+ years. Revelation 17 confirms that the beast is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God.
      Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc. Have a blessed day!

    That Inscryption character is called the "Lonely Wizard". He was tortured for many years by total sensory deprivation, and by the time you meet him his whole character revolves around how he is completely obsessed with any form of stimulation after having been denied it for so long. Anything that happens to Lonely Wizard, good or bad, is euphoric just because it's better than no sensation at all
    I interpret this as Bing Soy being lonely, or perhaps having been lonely at some time in the past, and now he is getting a sense of euphoria when he is recognised in a crowd for his unusual behaviour

      I think it also had something to do with the graphic at the beginning of one of his videos. The one that shows a stick figure getting progressively sadder, with the description, something good can come out of something bad.
      I think that means that he was severely depressed, and now that he's out of it, no matter what happens, at least it is something. Depression is described as a lack of any emotion, so this would make sense with your prediction. Now that he's no longer depressed, even the most crippling sadness is better than nothing.

    The Lonely Wizard from Inscryption is a character that was driven insane due to sensory deprivation. Basically locked in the void for an unknown length of time. Once free, he would cling (sometimes literally) to anything that gave him a sensory experience. Any sight, sound, even pain when defeating him he enjoyed.
    I'm not sure how to apply that to Bing Soy. My best guess would be doing things for the sake of doing something. Maybe Bing Soy is challenging themself in order to feel new experiences. Maybe it symbolizes keeping the game fresh and feeling alive even when the content has stagnated for so long

    23:01 I think it is pretty clear that the drawings represent the way things evolved.
    The story is in 3 parts - "Stick" is him and elmaxo, representing the first interaction, "Sticker" represents all the people that started stalking him after elmaxo featured him and launched the investigation, and "Stickest" represents someone invading his home (his privacy, his retreat, the game). That also ties to the "requiem" video where the happy face became sad, which illustrates the fact that it was great at first, but it soon became a bad experience because even though he liked the new attention it didn't allow him to play the game and experience things the way he did when he was a random player, and no one cared about him.

    24:31 In inscryption, the lonely wizard is a character who has been trapped in complete isolation for most of his life, and seeks out any form of stimuli after being freed. This probably means he was feeling lonely and isolated, and is looking for connection through tf2. The cabin in the woods in the “other” folder also seems to resemble leshy’s cabin from inscryption, so take this as you will. It’s worth mentioning that inscryption had a huge ARG associated with it.

    • @grump0639

      It could also open up the possibility that all the wacky tactics that Bing Soy has up his sleeves is his form of "stimulation" (alluding to the lonely wizard in inscryption) because his tactics are so out there and never done before, meaning that the dopamine rush or stimuli taken from performing the task makes him embody the character of the lonely wizard by trying things that nobody else has ever done in an effort to find stimulation.

    His spray? "Good job, tesseract!"
    Every single weapon in his inventory? "The Good Job".
    Every description for those weapons? "Good job, tesseract.".
    He was an enigma to every player on the server, but he was a damn good teammate that's for sure. There was only one time he said something that wasn't the usual, but I sadly can't remember what he said. It was probably something simple like "Hi.", but it made people freak out for a while. It seems that he's been offline since 2018.

    This guy exudes creativity. His amazing art and odd playstyle are obvious, but the strange choice of communicating by shooting letters on the wall, and also responding using images (meaning: the decision to do so, not only the images themselves) as well as him changing around his profile picture seemingly in reaction to elmaxos friend request also point to a creative mind. Though he seems quite cautious and withdrawn, it kinda spurs his creativity on as well, I think.
    If you read this, Bing Soy, I hope you don't feel any pressure to perform or produce videos or anything given how many new fans you'll get from this video. Just keep being you, and do what you want to do, whether that is growing your channels, or continue as usual, or something else completely. You don't owe anybody anything, we're just glad there are interesting people like you out there!

    Bing Soy is such a breath of fresh air, on one hand, the strategies used are really bizarre and entertaining to watch. On the other hand, Bing Soy's way of communication and expression is really out-of-the-ordinary, yet so relatable. I really hope to see more from Bing Soy.

      The way they communicate reminds me a lot of a kid I was sort of friends with when I was a lot younger. I was in therapy for school mandated "anger management" issues, since I finally had enough and had beat up a long time bully, but once the mandated time period passed my parents stuck with him because he helped me out a lot. Eventually, my therapist enrolled me in this sort of after school program for autistic kids and I became friends with a kid who was non-verbal autistic. I don't remember his name but I remember that he wouldn't talk to anyone but if he needed to communicate he would write down what he wanted to say, use physical gestures like pointing or nodding, or use a set of note cards that I guess his parents help him prepare for simple stock phrases (such as asking the adult watching us if he could use the bathroom).
      I wonder if Bing Soy is non-verbal as well, or maybe they're just shy / self conscious and that's why they go to such lengths to converse.

      I think some of it was that he was first found because of his unusual strategies, which are, well, strange! (And frankly, strange videogame strategies tend to be fun, right?) Then his "strangeness" was cemented by his unorthodox communication tactics, such as communicating through his pfp or sending google drives of pixel art.
      Not knocking him in any way, it's sometimes fun to be strange, and sometimes fun to see strangeness.
