Liam, I just saw murder drones. All I have to say is thank you for giving us so much older content and thank you for all of your new things, thank you.
Happy 10 Years SSTWL even though its now abandon I just want to come back and say I still love these stories and how much they mean to me and the memories that bring me back to when I was a kid. I'm happy that you are still making content and are getting the recognition and success you very well deserve. After nearly 9 years of watching your content I think I and many others are proud of your achievements, growth and watching the journey you are on!!! Liam if you do read this please relist Halogen and other videos on the channel, we really would appreciate it. Hail Mari
I still hold out hope to this day that he will come back it’s been over 3 years since he left and now 10 years since design was first started. And I’m still waiting for the day when he returns even if it’s many years from now.
Black Dogs is one of my favorite pieces of liturature. Design was a huge piece of my highschool days. Puppet game was a fun love letter from you to all of us and I enjoyed every bit of it. Your strange dark psudeo-scifi horror stories have always captivated me and Im looking forward to what awaits you. Love ya liam.
I'm sad that the death of this channel has been confirmed to the point of a video. But still, thank you for making this video and nearly everything else you've done on here.
It is sad, but I am grateful for the closure. Frankieonpc was a huge part of my teen years, he never said goodbye. Some of us still hold vigil hoping he will return. :(
Thank you for making this Liam, a lot creators in this situation wouldn’t even bother making something like this, and I’m glad you did since watching your videos always helped me out in the past back when I wasn’t in the greatest mindset. It might be the end of the channel, but it’s definitely not over. Your work on your animation channel is damn incredible and I’m excited for whatever is to come. Peace!
Thank you for not deleting your channel/videos, when i was 9-10 I listened to your Design series very heavily, your reading style always intrigued me and made me pay attention along with how descriptive you were. You honestly made my interest in creepy pasta and scary stories that has reached far into my life as i’m now almost 21 and am still extremely excited and invested in scary stories. I’ve been trying to find you for years, and now that I finally have I think I’ll revisit Design and actually finish it (: Again, thank you for your time, effort, and most importantly for making my childhood scary ❤
Yeah thank you man. I'll miss you. Psycer story with the look alike and harem protagonist definitely had cringe moments but was better than alot of creepy pastas. I wish you could have expanded the universe and explored more aspects of it. Always kind of wished for a reboot with other voice actors and cleaned up details. You will be missed as yet another victim of youtubes bygone era. You shall be remembered as a product of the silver age.
Happy that Kali WOULD have possibly been used in future Liam Vickers projects. Maybe when Liam is done with MD, maybe he’ll return to his regular channel, possibly finishing cube? It’s easy to tell that the Solver is based both on left hands and the cubes. It has the telekinetic powers of the left hands, whilst also having the repurposing of matter to create new things like the cubes. So both kinda are living on in the form of murder drones. So thus i have a proposed theory of one continuous timeline. Starting with cliffside, that is obviously set in the distant past. Most monsters eventually going extinct with the exception of the wendigoes. Assuming they don’t follow the rules of the original tale of course, mainly because wendigoes can’t just mitosis split like how they do in Cliffside. The wendigoes eventually evolve into small parasites after one heck of a long time hiding in the shadows. I am guessing in that these wendigoes can evolve faster because they are fictional monsters and it super glues this theory together. These parasites are the left hands. That leads us to Design. After an altered version of the events that happen in season 2, Max never getting “infected” with 104’s offspring, and Kali living the events of season 2’s finale, then that leads into the idea that in the US (or at the least Denver) Left Hands became a normal part of life. Reefinoc, not having anything better to do, decides to tamper with another unholy force being the cubes. Now aside from what’s been told to us, the water get’s a little bit TOO murky to see through and the next events are hard to decipher, but let’s say that IC-0n (whom i am calling Icon for simplicity’s sake) did the whole mutual destruction thing for whatever reason. Now this next part may seem… iffy but next up on the timeline is MURDER DRONES! In the development of the drones, Reefinoc helps out a bit with creating some of the AI, and some of the body, knowing how good they are at making robots (like Icon’s robo-body). Eventually one of the drones sees the research on the cubes and left hands. SOMETHING happens and they learn how to mimic some of both of their abilities loosely. Then the events of murder drones are set into place, yada yada and BOOM! But that is just a proposal, and not the fax. Hope you enjoyed this rant typed on a phone screen that nobody will see!
Came back for some nostalgia and saw this. A year late, and im sure you wont see it, but thanks for all the stuff youve done. I got REALLY into writing as a freshman in high school and i have you to thank for that, honestly. Hope youre doin alright out there!
Honestly, I'm gonna miss the cringe and hilarity here, a lot of fun times have been had with the content of the channel, the discord server, and the whole mess. I'm still proud of my hyperactivity-fuelled theorizing about 0111, and everything else. However, I, and probably a large portion of the fanbase, am excited for what you'll do in the future, now that you've grown as a writer and animator. Your style is alive and well in projects like Cliffside, Internecion Cube, etc., and it's clear that the channel has helped you improve, which is great. Hopefully I'll be able to see you become even better, even with SSTWL frozen as a gloriously-cringy monument to what was. This was a great send-off to the channel, all things considered. Thanks for everything. Stay spoopy, Liam. :)
Woah, holy shit. I'm here from one of your old, ooooold songs (nostalgia tripping through old playlists, you know how it is), but I used to be an avid subscriber around the Design S2 and Yellow Halogen era. I'm *also* a subscriber over on the LVA and I *never realized you're the same person.* It's so wild to me that the dude I used to listen to read scary stories way back in the day, and the dude I wait on excitedly for original stories/animations/animatics now are the same person. Seriously, I've been watching you for *5 years* and across huge shifts in my life. I guess I kind of want to say, uh, thank you? For being a storyteller, animator, y'know a creator in general.
I remember seeing the CliffSide animation recommended to me back when it came out and having that insane 'small world' feeling wash over me when I realized it was THAT Liam Vickers. I fell out of the scary story scene around 4 or 5 years ago, but I remember liking your stories a lot back then. Though I no longer have the tastes of an edgy 14 year old, I'd be lying if i said puppet game and design weren't on my list of things "to get to eventually" (maybe ill finally get around to them.) If you looked back on some old narrations you might even see some old cringeworthy comments I made trying to act cool (I really don't want to test this hypothesis) The joke stories like Spogenbob the Jimmy Rustler (even though i don't think you wrote that one) have permanently damaged my sense of humor, and I'm glad they'll still be around to show people in case I ever accidentally reference a doornub or yelo spogen. Anyway, I salute you for providing me quality entertainment so long ago, maybe I'll even join the discord server once I listen to those longer stories (I feel like I'm not worthy enough at the moment) well that turned into a full blown essay pretty quick
Gonna be honest, I have not watched any of the videos here, just came here cause you made Cliffside and did cool music. That being said, glad your not deleting anything cause I was considering starting some of the stories, cowardice can only deter me for so long. Nonetheless, have a great day.
Liam you inspired me from a young age to become an author. And I'm still trying to become author to this day because of you and so many others. I'm super excited to see your animations and new series that come out. This video you made will for always be until the end of time my favourite video you posted on this channel. Thank you for everything and I'm excited to keep watching you as you grow as an animator and story writer.
I love this channel the way you tell the stories are really like nothing anyone else has done my favourites are design and the monster on the mountain can’t remember the name where they find the car abandoned and something throws a rock bk at them I’m really gonna miss all this xx
Happy 10 years anniversary! While you may not think so these stories are some of the best ive ever listened to, and design is a masterpeiece. Never before have i ever binged something so hard, spending my the entire day only listening to design or its soundtrack. While you will probably never end it and thats ok, i would just like to say thanks for the wonderfull episodes you did give us. Not just for design but for all your stories.
This channel and the stories it told helped make my 2010's some of the most fun years I've ever had. From wondering what would happen next with John and Kali in Design, to wondering who would be offed next in Puppetgame, and to listening to all the badass tracks released like "Insanity is Alright" and "Gat Ritzy's Continuance Cube." They're experiences I'll never forget, and this channel is to thank for that. Goodbye, SSTWL, and rest well.
Yeah, I can't say I'm that surprised. Although it's unfortunate that it's over after 7+ years. Hopefully that doesn't mean you're done with written stories, even if they don't necessarily get uploaded here. But either way, this channel will always hold a special place in my heart. And even then I'll gladly follow with whatever you decide to do next.
Liam, one of my favorite things about Murder Drones is seeing your themes from your creepypastas showing up in them. I started your channel with listening to Black Dogs and now I've just got Design to finish up and PuppetGame to start. Never be ashamed of what you've created here; it got you to where you are today.
Never take down your work. One of the first creepypasta I've heard was Design. Love it and it will always be nostalgic for me. Thank you for your channel.
Considering how long uploads took I did see this coming but I did not expect a proper goodbye so whether or not you read this I want to say thank you. Despite some never being finished all your stories helped me get through hard times and feel less lonely during them. I was one of those watchers who would listen over and over again because of how much I love them heh. But nothing lasts forever eventually people move on and I have been watching your animations I liked the cool references and how new everything is your work has truly evolved and I hope to see how much more you evolve in the future thank you for the memories Liam ❤
Goodbye man... You really inspired me to become an author... You helped me through some tough times. You'll always have a special place in my heart. ❤️
1:42 Yes, that just means that you created your own form of art. I often cringe at my own works, my bad drawings, my cliche stories, my poorly written books, but then I had people tell me that my work was good. I still felt that I could’ve done better in my work, but at least I knew that people actually enjoyed it. This applies to you as well. You may find your own stories a bit cringey, but just know that others find it amazing. We find it fun, interesting, good, and entrancing, among other things. People like you and your work.
Thank you so much Liam for leaving this channel open. After watching MD and your other works, it was a pleasure to get to know your early work. And despite some of the ridiculous or cringe moments, Design and PuppetGame also have a lot of merit even after all these years. I hope these stories aren't completely forgotten and help inspire something new someday.
Liam, its only been 3 months since you officially ended the channel but it being October really makes me miss your stories and your voice. I loved all of your stuff and the fact that all those characters and stories were all from you made it all the more enjoyable. You knew what they were feeling and why they felt that way and u could feel it everytime you spoke for them. I hope you are doing well.
Liam, even though I am a new fan and I missed the party a little bit would be an underatatement, but you still made me almost cry. You made me start my own story, you gave me a BIG part of the courage that I needed, thank you, I will try my best and will imply everything I learned from you, I loved it all, litterally all, no a single track that I didnt like, not a single episode that I didnt completely enjoy. The only think I can tell you is just, thank you in the purest way possible.😢😊😊
You're my favorite story teller/horror writer honestly. I always listened to all of your original stories on my way to school which is a one hour train ride. English isn't my first language and it was so helpful too! But I didn't listen to your stories because I wanted to improve my english skills, but because of the kind of effect your stories have on me. Ghoosebumps, being actually terrified (and Im not a lightweight when it comes to horror)- I love this feeling and I was so happy I found something that genuinenly worked. And english not being my first language made it necessary to carefully listen which got me hooked even more. I already guessed you won't do it forever because of your upload scedule but Im happy I can still relisten to the ones you already shared. I do still listen to them! Thank you so much for making my train rides a little more intense and good luck with everything that is about to come in your life!
just to let you know. weaston pass is my foundation for what i consider an amazing story. its wasn't bloody or insane. but the slow build of a simple reststop to the unfathomable realization of horror.
It's kinda funny how much this channel inspired and motivated me to work on my own stories. Dismissed it when I was younger, saw value and actually entertainment later and now I guess I can say I'm fan of your works. And this was a nice send off, not just letting everyone hanging with no closure. HYPED for Internecion Cube and all future series of yours.
I've came back here after Ep 7 of MD, just trying to cope and now I see the roots of a lot of things this man showed me how to love. Also 4:36 really helped just accept the fact that Liam was giving something an official ending was even coming. And yes I'm doing like a fae, a lawyer or a fairy lawyer and taking "positive" as -desirable or constructive quality or attribute- so Bite me. And thank you past Liam, You've came a long way
Dude, listening to your stories was amazing. Your writing style is so unique and your narrations always made them so vivid. Thank you, its been a hell of a ride in all the best ways.
I wish you luck on your future endeavors Liam! It's been great riding along with you for the journey. Though I am sure I and many others will be with you on your future endeavors!
When this popped up in my feed, it hit me very hard. I understand your choice though, and will support you to the end. And thank you so much for unprivating the videos I never got to see.
Hit me pretty hard too but I’m also glad that this video was posted. Means we know now for sure that SSTWL is done for, instead of wait every day for a new video that would never drop. I’m gonna follow Liam on his animation channel, and hope the best for it. You should too my friend c:
@@brandonturner4113 I completely relate on that brutha. It fucking sucks that this happened however it isn’t without reason, let us be grateful for what we have instead of what we won’t have. Liam’s stories will continue on with his cartoons on his animation channel.
Aw man... I haven't even been here long, i started waaaayyyy at the start and only saw this today! This is dumb. but your "design" series really helped me get far in Subnautica (i told you it was dumb) also it was kinda cool being able to get on everyday and have an different type of story (a weird one) that's read to me. Guess i'll just have to listen to every video to continue my journey through the depths of the ocean, a terrifying journey with terrifying stories to keep me company. ill check out the discord and your future works!
Liam. I will miss your edgy stories, your terrifying creatures, intense scenes, and loose ends. I appreciate what you are doing for the community, and leaving the channel up. I appreciate it, because you are one of the reasons why I began writing. I hope you are doing well, man. I can't wait to see what you come up with in the near future!
Sad to see you go, dude. You're one of the Top 3 creepypasta channels that I listen to(and guess what, you're #1, haha). You've made lesser videos compared to other CP channels but the quality in your videos are just something beyond explanation. They always get me hooked till this very day. I hope you'd change your mind one day in the future and get back to writing and narrating here. But I wish you all the best, man. You got insane talent and you're gonna go places with that. Will miss ya. Stay spooky.
You created me! You can't go. I understand that you have your reasons, and I'm glad you are keeping this channel up. Good luck with your new ventures. 👍
Thanks so much for making your older videos available again!! Some of those are actually my favourite stories/readings of all time and they have been missed. Thanks for everything else too! Cheers
goodbye Liam I hope life treats you well, really I can't believe it you're voice has accompanied me on countless work assignments in the most remote parts of my state and on my travels. thank you for the years of paranoia induced adrenaline your narrations granted me.
Okay, so I got recommended one of your old vids. I saw this channel is discontinued and decided to check out your animation channel you put under this farewell video... And holy moly, you're THE guy! Murder Drones and Cliffside. What a legend!
You are such an incredible writer, and I've always wanted to see your work published. Thank you for the stories you did give us. You were one of the best creepypasta readers and writers I've listened to.
SSTWL was my first experience into the creeypasta world. Since then I've been hooked for the last 5 years. Very sad to see you go, its like losing an old friend.
I found you from your Design Series years ago. I loved every bit of it, every story, every music piece. Thanks for the adventure on this channel. You are an inspiration to us all. Here is to new beginnings.
So sad to hear it's over, sure would have loved an ending to all your awesome series that remain unfinished, though I had a feeling that was never going be, do to the very long absence. But whatever the reason, I for one will like you say thank you for some of the most unique and awesome storytelling out there, I really really enjoyed the time I spent listening the the storys, watching the animetions and plaing the game "a cold love story" so again thank you soo much for making all of it, and good luck till the end. PS. even though you said so, I'm still gonna cross my fingers for an ending those that remain unended ;) Rock on dude
I didn't even know there was a discord! That's actually a bit daft of me, I've loved your channel for years (I once attempted to make a series of Puppet Game Minecraft skins, but didn't get very far) and before this upload I came back every few months, hoping there was a new video. I would've jumped at the opportunity to share my love with a community! That being said, as sad as I am to see you go, I'm so happy that you've grown and I look forward to everything you'll be doing with your new channel! Thank you for the wild ride and for forming some of my best memories with the creepypasta fandom 💛
Im glad to see you're atleast leaving the stories up (both the good and the bad) its a great way to show you care about your community and to be honest i really liked your stories alot more than the other readers ones, they actually scared me a good bit. hope whatever you plan next keeps you inspired.
We will all miss you m8. Just dont give up on your animations yet... You helped me through all of the hard times as I grew up. Whether it was intended or not, I learned a lot of lessons from your stories. I am definitely gonna try my hand at a design spin-off, thinking Germany or Japan. Your voice will always send shudders through my skin. Until Valhalla (or wherever epic story tellers go).
Thanks for official cutting it off :) Still sad to see it go, it was a large-ish portion of my youth, sitting in my mom's work staring out of frosted windows at the street while listening to to John and Kali trying to not die, and John dying of dogs and radiation, and john dying, and.... you get it. Some of my fondest memories.
While I do love your stories I’m very excited for the future. I also wanted to thank you for in a way helping me decide what I wanted to do with my life, and that is write stories on the creepy side.
I'm 3500 words from a successful graduation. I found this channel the summer of 8th grade and discovering someone who wrote, narrated, provided music for, drew for, basically for being able to make it all happen. It gave me so much hope and inspiration. My very first finals all those years ago I binged the music to help me power through an all nighter of studying. 7 years later, with only 2 days to go, here's to making it and getting through. Thank you!
Liam.. I totally understand moving on and growing as an artist. For me, it’s music. I put my heart and soul into what I do and I wholeheartedly know that you did the same in this channel. These stories helped me through a time in my life when I didn’t know how much longer I’d last. They helped me calm down.. helped me fall asleep.. helped me escape from other people.. helped inspire me to keep trying to do what I do. And while I understand that artists look back on their old work very critically, I also understand that having a record of such work is so important. The amount of respect I have for you is indescribable. And I know everyone here probably shares that sentiment. Thank you so much for being who you are and doing what you do. And please let me/us know if there is a way we can check out your future work- because I know damn well you’re gonna do some crazy shit in the future lol. Also, if you see this and choose to respond, I’ll totally chat with you
I just finished watching every videos available here and I must say I had such a blast going through them that i couldn't put it in words. Even tho I am as Late as heat death of the universe, I am So Glad that I get to listen to these stories.
Damn, dude. Well, I'm at least glad this existed on my life and enjoyed all the cringe and binge ( You think I'm joking? ) and my best friend and sister enjoyed it too. I do truly hope things go better for both your other channel but also real life cause it can be tough. I'll still subscribe this channel even though it's now as dead as Sarah ( haha I made joke lol ) and I guess I'll be more active on the other or maybe resurrect on the discord server since I'm on it too. good luck, my friend!
We will miss you a lot. ❤️ I hope you keep your stores here so we can come back and listen. And good luck Liam. Thanks for getting me through times when I felt the loneliness.
Liam, are you still there? I know you've retired this channel and are no longer uploading your own original content, but me and my friend CarlB1961 have been huge fans for years. CarlB's a Reddit NoSleep writer and he would be honored to have you narrate some of his stories...if you ever change your mind.
I started watching these pretty recently and I have to say that I still enjoy these videos. IM STILL WATCHING THE DESIGN SERIES! But it’s sad that this channel is coming to a end. But this is a super creative and entertaining channel to watch. You’ve come so far. 👍
I unironically loved PuppetGAME, the descriptions of deaths and actions are so spooky they send chills. Ponder is a horrifying host and his theme song is an absolute bop. Even if door guy was ironicly goofy he always ended up cracking me up, the chair scene in the ship with kali had me rolling. The whole series has this hilariously horrifying aesthetic and I love it. Best of luck on your future projects Liam! Until next time :)
Thank you for all your lovely works I thoroughly enjoy them all and want to wish you luck with all your future endeavors. I also like that you gave us a official end to the Channel and gave us some sense of the endings to all the stories that would have driven me mad trying to picture how it would have ended 😂
Really sad to hear that you will be leaving. I've loved all of your work the stories the music and the cold love story game has been a huge part of my own journey. I hope you find success in what ever it is you pursue in the future. I will certainly going through your works again. Glad to hear design has a happy ending. Kinda writing this as I listen, so excuse it being so patchwork. Wow that twist with puppet game sounds like it would have been interesting. Already subscribed to the animated channel but looking forward to the new stuff glad we won't be losing you. We all really love you and your work.
Liam, when I heard your story, I was flabbergasted. Puppet game was how I got introduced into this channel and I loved the story concept and the creativity you put into it. Then I heard your music, and I believe your music surpasses many. I hope you continue your story telling career and one day can put your stories like puppet game and design on the big screen.

True
Absolute masterpiece.
Liam, I just saw murder drones. All I have to say is thank you for giving us so much older content and thank you for all of your new things, thank you.
Happy 10 Years SSTWL even though its now abandon I just want to come back and say I still love these stories and how much they mean to me and the memories that bring me back to when I was a kid.

Hail Mari
Liams work is truly unique, I have never gotten the same Inspired enjoyment from anything since.
I still hold out hope to this day that he will come back it’s been over 3 years since he left and now 10 years since design was first started. And I’m still waiting for the day when he returns even if it’s many years from now.
Psst liam, you have great characters here, you can sneakily put them in your animations for the old and new that find this channel.
Put references or actual animations of them, especially Kali would be amazing
@@FortworthYT I would fucking love that

Yes, this.

I just found this channel and idk what you all are on about, but I’ll be so happy for you all if you watch/have watched murder drones

Black Dogs is one of my favorite pieces of liturature. Design was a huge piece of my highschool days. Puppet game was a fun love letter from you to all of us and I enjoyed every bit of it. Your strange dark psudeo-scifi horror stories have always captivated me and Im looking forward to what awaits you. Love ya liam.
Black dogs was very good, even if ell and lull didn't get their happy ending it was very fun and was very surprised that the dog played everyone
And if you witch murder drone I'm sure he gonna add some back dog staff in there episode 5 I'm can small it
We'll all miss the stories, but most of us will understand why. Rip puppetgame though.
Sadness
That was the only series that I wanted to be finished. And it will never be.
@@someczechguy4261 Here's to hoping he maybe makes an animation for the ending, even though it's unlikely.
Seriously though, if he animated PuppetGAME like an actual game show, it would be AMAZING.
@@doctorbright1065 that would be pretty cool.
10 years since the channel's founding, Vickers' still at it with murderous claw girls.
I'm sad that the death of this channel has been confirmed to the point of a video. But still, thank you for making this video and nearly everything else you've done on here.
It is sad, but I am grateful for the closure. Frankieonpc was a huge part of my teen years, he never said goodbye. Some of us still hold vigil hoping he will return. :(

Pretty please
For the love of everything unholy & holy in the world, please continue yellow halogen in a spin off. 🥺please?

Today, May 27th 2023, is SSTWL's 10th birthday
RIP SSTWL, you will be missed, and your stories, loved.
It was fun while it lasted ya know?
Indeed
Thank you for making this Liam, a lot creators in this situation wouldn’t even bother making something like this, and I’m glad you did since watching your videos always helped me out in the past back when I wasn’t in the greatest mindset. It might be the end of the channel, but it’s definitely not over. Your work on your animation channel is damn incredible and I’m excited for whatever is to come. Peace!
Thank you for not deleting your channel/videos, when i was 9-10 I listened to your Design series very heavily, your reading style always intrigued me and made me pay attention along with how descriptive you were.

Again, thank you for your time, effort, and most importantly for making my childhood scary ❤

We appreciate all the wonderful content you have put out and I can say this for all in the community
It’s kinda ironic with that saying “all good things must come to an end” R.I.P. SSTWL 2013-2020. It was a fun ride but now it’s the last ride ✊
2020 strikes again
Damn that seven year cycle curse strikes again
Stay sooky every on and stay aroud , yeeet
Liam Vickers famos last words
And i wish you the best
Happy that Kali WOULD have possibly been used in future Liam Vickers projects. Maybe when Liam is done with MD, maybe he’ll return to his regular channel, possibly finishing cube? It’s easy to tell that the Solver is based both on left hands and the cubes. It has the telekinetic powers of the left hands, whilst also having the repurposing of matter to create new things like the cubes. So both kinda are living on in the form of murder drones.
So thus i have a proposed theory of one continuous timeline. Starting with cliffside, that is obviously set in the distant past. Most monsters eventually going extinct with the exception of the wendigoes. Assuming they don’t follow the rules of the original tale of course, mainly because wendigoes can’t just mitosis split like how they do in Cliffside. The wendigoes eventually evolve into small parasites after one heck of a long time hiding in the shadows. I am guessing in that these wendigoes can evolve faster because they are fictional monsters and it super glues this theory together. These parasites are the left hands. That leads us to Design. After an altered version of the events that happen in season 2, Max never getting “infected” with 104’s offspring, and Kali living the events of season 2’s finale, then that leads into the idea that in the US (or at the least Denver) Left Hands became a normal part of life. Reefinoc, not having anything better to do, decides to tamper with another unholy force being the cubes. Now aside from what’s been told to us, the water get’s a little bit TOO murky to see through and the next events are hard to decipher, but let’s say that IC-0n (whom i am calling Icon for simplicity’s sake) did the whole mutual destruction thing for whatever reason. Now this next part may seem… iffy but next up on the timeline is MURDER DRONES! In the development of the drones, Reefinoc helps out a bit with creating some of the AI, and some of the body, knowing how good they are at making robots (like Icon’s robo-body). Eventually one of the drones sees the research on the cubes and left hands. SOMETHING happens and they learn how to mimic some of both of their abilities loosely. Then the events of murder drones are set into place, yada yada and BOOM! But that is just a proposal, and not the fax. Hope you enjoyed this rant typed on a phone screen that nobody will see!
Not to mention the entire thing with the solver and having tentacle weapons *cough ( Kali )
Came back for some nostalgia and saw this. A year late, and im sure you wont see it, but thanks for all the stuff youve done. I got REALLY into writing as a freshman in high school and i have you to thank for that, honestly. Hope youre doin alright out there!
Honestly, I'm gonna miss the cringe and hilarity here, a lot of fun times have been had with the content of the channel, the discord server, and the whole mess. I'm still proud of my hyperactivity-fuelled theorizing about 0111, and everything else.
However, I, and probably a large portion of the fanbase, am excited for what you'll do in the future, now that you've grown as a writer and animator. Your style is alive and well in projects like Cliffside, Internecion Cube, etc., and it's clear that the channel has helped you improve, which is great. Hopefully I'll be able to see you become even better, even with SSTWL frozen as a gloriously-cringy monument to what was. This was a great send-off to the channel, all things considered. Thanks for everything.
Stay spoopy, Liam. :)
The spoopines remained
Woah, holy shit. I'm here from one of your old, ooooold songs (nostalgia tripping through old playlists, you know how it is), but I used to be an avid subscriber around the Design S2 and Yellow Halogen era. I'm *also* a subscriber over on the LVA and I *never realized you're the same person.* It's so wild to me that the dude I used to listen to read scary stories way back in the day, and the dude I wait on excitedly for original stories/animations/animatics now are the same person. Seriously, I've been watching you for *5 years* and across huge shifts in my life. I guess I kind of want to say, uh, thank you? For being a storyteller, animator, y'know a creator in general.
4:48 with what he just said I am going to guess murder drones will have a happy ending
-Currently 3 days before md ends btw
You were right
@@anastasia_852let’s go
Ngl I didn’t know people still checked this channel
I remember seeing the CliffSide animation recommended to me back when it came out and having that insane 'small world' feeling wash over me when I realized it was THAT Liam Vickers. I fell out of the scary story scene around 4 or 5 years ago, but I remember liking your stories a lot back then. Though I no longer have the tastes of an edgy 14 year old, I'd be lying if i said puppet game and design weren't on my list of things "to get to eventually" (maybe ill finally get around to them.) If you looked back on some old narrations you might even see some old cringeworthy comments I made trying to act cool (I really don't want to test this hypothesis)
The joke stories like Spogenbob the Jimmy Rustler (even though i don't think you wrote that one) have permanently damaged my sense of humor, and I'm glad they'll still be around to show people in case I ever accidentally reference a doornub or yelo spogen.
Anyway, I salute you for providing me quality entertainment so long ago, maybe I'll even join the discord server once I listen to those longer stories (I feel like I'm not worthy enough at the moment)
well that turned into a full blown essay pretty quick
Gonna be honest, I have not watched any of the videos here, just came here cause you made Cliffside and did cool music.
That being said, glad your not deleting anything cause I was considering starting some of the stories, cowardice can only deter me for so long.
Nonetheless, have a great day.
They r worth it even the cringe
@@adamdeclue3843 even the cringe is good
Wario exactly
tbh yeah, I'm only here for the music lol.
@@Drakon_Minaka your missing out dude
Liam you inspired me from a young age to become an author. And I'm still trying to become author to this day because of you and so many others. I'm super excited to see your animations and new series that come out. This video you made will for always be until the end of time my favourite video you posted on this channel. Thank you for everything and I'm excited to keep watching you as you grow as an animator and story writer.
i was a legit real big fan of design and a cold love story.
Very sweet, thanks for the final goodbye here.
RIP in peace, pardner
I love this channel the way you tell the stories are really like nothing anyone else has done my favourites are design and the monster on the mountain can’t remember the name where they find the car abandoned and something throws a rock bk at them I’m really gonna miss all this xx
I gotta say that YEET being your last words here is just amazing
Happy 10 years anniversary!
While you may not think so these stories are some of the best ive ever listened to, and design is a masterpeiece. Never before have i ever binged something so hard, spending my the entire day only listening to design or its soundtrack.
While you will probably never end it and thats ok, i would just like to say thanks for the wonderfull episodes you did give us. Not just for design but for all your stories.
Sstwl is evolving, congrats, now u have Liam vickers animation
This channel and the stories it told helped make my 2010's some of the most fun years I've ever had. From wondering what would happen next with John and Kali in Design, to wondering who would be offed next in Puppetgame, and to listening to all the badass tracks released like "Insanity is Alright" and "Gat Ritzy's Continuance Cube." They're experiences I'll never forget, and this channel is to thank for that. Goodbye, SSTWL, and rest well.
Yeah, I can't say I'm that surprised. Although it's unfortunate that it's over after 7+ years. Hopefully that doesn't mean you're done with written stories, even if they don't necessarily get uploaded here. But either way, this channel will always hold a special place in my heart. And even then I'll gladly follow with whatever you decide to do next.
Liam, one of my favorite things about Murder Drones is seeing your themes from your creepypastas showing up in them. I started your channel with listening to Black Dogs and now I've just got Design to finish up and PuppetGame to start. Never be ashamed of what you've created here; it got you to where you are today.
Never take down your work. One of the first creepypasta I've heard was Design. Love it and it will always be nostalgic for me. Thank you for your channel.
Considering how long uploads took I did see this coming but I did not expect a proper goodbye so whether or not you read this I want to say thank you. Despite some never being finished all your stories helped me get through hard times and feel less lonely during them. I was one of those watchers who would listen over and over again because of how much I love them heh. But nothing lasts forever eventually people move on and I have been watching your animations I liked the cool references and how new everything is your work has truly evolved and I hope to see how much more you evolve in the future thank you for the memories Liam ❤
Goodbye man... You really inspired me to become an author... You helped me through some tough times. You'll always have a special place in my heart. ❤️
1:42
Yes, that just means that you created your own form of art. I often cringe at my own works, my bad drawings, my cliche stories, my poorly written books, but then I had people tell me that my work was good. I still felt that I could’ve done better in my work, but at least I knew that people actually enjoyed it.
This applies to you as well.
You may find your own stories a bit cringey, but just know that others find it amazing. We find it fun, interesting, good, and entrancing, among other things.
People like you and your work.
Thank you so much Liam for leaving this channel open. After watching MD and your other works, it was a pleasure to get to know your early work. And despite some of the ridiculous or cringe moments, Design and PuppetGame also have a lot of merit even after all these years. I hope these stories aren't completely forgotten and help inspire something new someday.
Just commenting to say im still listening, please never take your stories down and thank you so so much
Liam: There might be straight-up character reuse in new projects...
*Shows Ponder*
Me: Ah sh*t, here we go again.
*Shows Ponder, Malie, and Kali
Liam, its only been 3 months since you officially ended the channel but it being October really makes me miss your stories and your voice. I loved all of your stuff and the fact that all those characters and stories were all from you made it all the more enjoyable. You knew what they were feeling and why they felt that way and u could feel it everytime you spoke for them. I hope you are doing well.
I still miss your stories Liam, I do hope to see some references to your characters from here in your animations.
Liam, even though I am a new fan and I missed the party a little bit would be an underatatement, but you still made me almost cry. You made me start my own story, you gave me a BIG part of the courage that I needed, thank you, I will try my best and will imply everything I learned from you, I loved it all, litterally all, no a single track that I didnt like, not a single episode that I didnt completely enjoy. The only think I can tell you is just, thank you in the purest way possible.😢😊😊
even though Liam has left we remain not as just viewers, but as guardians who keep his work alive and as a community who bond over great work
You're my favorite story teller/horror writer honestly. I always listened to all of your original stories on my way to school which is a one hour train ride. English isn't my first language and it was so helpful too! But I didn't listen to your stories because I wanted to improve my english skills, but because of the kind of effect your stories have on me. Ghoosebumps, being actually terrified (and Im not a lightweight when it comes to horror)- I love this feeling and I was so happy I found something that genuinenly worked. And english not being my first language made it necessary to carefully listen which got me hooked even more. I already guessed you won't do it forever because of your upload scedule but Im happy I can still relisten to the ones you already shared. I do still listen to them! Thank you so much for making my train rides a little more intense and good luck with everything that is about to come in your life!
just to let you know. weaston pass is my foundation for what i consider an amazing story. its wasn't bloody or insane. but the slow build of a simple reststop to the unfathomable realization of horror.
It's kinda funny how much this channel inspired and motivated me to work on my own stories. Dismissed it when I was younger, saw value and actually entertainment later and now I guess I can say I'm fan of your works. And this was a nice send off, not just letting everyone hanging with no closure.
HYPED for Internecion Cube and all future series of yours.
I've came back here after Ep 7 of MD, just trying to cope and now I see the roots of a lot of things this man showed me how to love.
Also 4:36 really helped just accept the fact that Liam was giving something an official ending was even coming.
And yes I'm doing like a fae, a lawyer or a fairy lawyer and taking "positive" as -desirable or constructive quality or attribute- so Bite me.
And thank you past Liam, You've came a long way
Dude, listening to your stories was amazing. Your writing style is so unique and your narrations always made them so vivid. Thank you, its been a hell of a ride in all the best ways.
I wish you luck on your future endeavors Liam! It's been great riding along with you for the journey. Though I am sure I and many others will be with you on your future endeavors!
When this popped up in my feed, it hit me very hard. I understand your choice though, and will support you to the end. And thank you so much for unprivating the videos I never got to see.
Hit me pretty hard too but I’m also glad that this video was posted. Means we know now for sure that SSTWL is done for, instead of wait every day for a new video that would never drop. I’m gonna follow Liam on his animation channel, and hope the best for it. You should too my friend c:
@@TsubasaVotora I just can't believe design is gone, I got to this kinda late and I'm still in shock
@@brandonturner4113 I completely relate on that brutha. It fucking sucks that this happened however it isn’t without reason, let us be grateful for what we have instead of what we won’t have. Liam’s stories will continue on with his cartoons on his animation channel.
@@TsubasaVotora Yeah you're probably right I'm just a wee bit sad is all.
Thanks /:
@@TsubasaVotora just sucks not to get an ending to something I was so completely invested in
Aw man... I haven't even been here long, i started waaaayyyy at the start and only saw this today! This is dumb. but your "design" series really helped me get far in Subnautica (i told you it was dumb) also it was kinda cool being able to get on everyday and have an different type of story (a weird one) that's read to me. Guess i'll just have to listen to every video to continue my journey through the depths of the ocean, a terrifying journey with terrifying stories to keep me company. ill check out the discord and your future works!
Liam. I will miss your edgy stories, your terrifying creatures, intense scenes, and loose ends. I appreciate what you are doing for the community, and leaving the channel up. I appreciate it, because you are one of the reasons why I began writing. I hope you are doing well, man. I can't wait to see what you come up with in the near future!
im just getting into all of your stuff. internecion cube and cliffside brought me to you, and im loving to see more as it goes. rock on good sir
It’s sad to say goodbye, but I’m happy it was something worth saying goodbye to
Sad to see you go, dude. You're one of the Top 3 creepypasta channels that I listen to(and guess what, you're #1, haha). You've made lesser videos compared to other CP channels but the quality in your videos are just something beyond explanation. They always get me hooked till this very day.
I hope you'd change your mind one day in the future and get back to writing and narrating here. But I wish you all the best, man. You got insane talent and you're gonna go places with that. Will miss ya. Stay spooky.
I relate to this.
Damn. I know Liam IRL, been here since the beginning(ish). What a ride.
It's weird. I just found this guy yesterday on his animation channel. But hearing him say goodbye still hurts.
Thank you Liam, I started watching Design and I loved every single episode of it. R.I.P Puppetgame.
You created me! You can't go.
I understand that you have your reasons, and I'm glad you are keeping this channel up.
Good luck with your new ventures. 👍
shouldnt of killed john smh
Thanks so much for making your older videos available again!! Some of those are actually my favourite stories/readings of all time and they have been missed. Thanks for everything else too! Cheers
goodbye Liam I hope life treats you well, really I can't believe it you're voice has accompanied me on countless work assignments in the most remote parts of my state and on my travels. thank you for the years of paranoia induced adrenaline your narrations granted me.
Just found this channel, Yay! More Liam Vicker content for me to pass my time with. As I wait for more MURDER DRONES.
I am happy Liam chose not to nuke this amazing channel. Great stories. Sadly modern society just doesn't have the attention span for this art.
Okay, so I got recommended one of your old vids. I saw this channel is discontinued and decided to check out your animation channel you put under this farewell video...
And holy moly, you're THE guy! Murder Drones and Cliffside. What a legend!
How is it that everytime i find a channel that I like, it's stopped posting
Same
I guess people knew how to do it back then and just stopped doing it.
But at least theres Liam Vickers animation
the fallen shall be forever remembered as the emperor's finest
You are such an incredible writer, and I've always wanted to see your work published. Thank you for the stories you did give us. You were one of the best creepypasta readers and writers I've listened to.
SSTWL was my first experience into the creeypasta world. Since then I've been hooked for the last 5 years. Very sad to see you go, its like losing an old friend.
I found you from your Design Series years ago. I loved every bit of it, every story, every music piece. Thanks for the adventure on this channel. You are an inspiration to us all. Here is to new beginnings.
So sad to hear it's over, sure would have loved an ending to all your awesome series that remain unfinished, though I had a feeling that was never going be, do to the very long absence. But whatever the reason, I for one will like you say thank you for some of the most unique and awesome storytelling out there, I really really enjoyed the time I spent listening the the storys, watching the animetions and plaing the game "a cold love story" so again thank you soo much for making all of it, and good luck till the end. PS. even though you said so, I'm still gonna cross my fingers for an ending those that remain unended ;) Rock on dude
I didn't even know there was a discord! That's actually a bit daft of me, I've loved your channel for years (I once attempted to make a series of Puppet Game Minecraft skins, but didn't get very far) and before this upload I came back every few months, hoping there was a new video. I would've jumped at the opportunity to share my love with a community! That being said, as sad as I am to see you go, I'm so happy that you've grown and I look forward to everything you'll be doing with your new channel! Thank you for the wild ride and for forming some of my best memories with the creepypasta fandom 💛
Real sad day, thank you for the awesome stories been my favourite channel since the day I found it wish you were seen by more people.
Im glad to see you're atleast leaving the stories up (both the good and the bad) its a great way to show you care about your community and to be honest i really liked your stories alot more than the other readers ones, they actually scared me a good bit.
hope whatever you plan next keeps you inspired.
We will all miss you m8. Just dont give up on your animations yet... You helped me through all of the hard times as I grew up. Whether it was intended or not, I learned a lot of lessons from your stories. I am definitely gonna try my hand at a design spin-off, thinking Germany or Japan. Your voice will always send shudders through my skin. Until Valhalla (or wherever epic story tellers go).
P.s. Kali is best girl
Thank you for 'Design’-I loved the series to bits and pieces.
Thanks for official cutting it off :) Still sad to see it go, it was a large-ish portion of my youth, sitting in my mom's work staring out of frosted windows at the street while listening to to John and Kali trying to not die, and John dying of dogs and radiation, and john dying, and.... you get it. Some of my fondest memories.
Still one of my alltime favorite writer/narrators. Godspeed Liam.
While I do love your stories I’m very excited for the future. I also wanted to thank you for in a way helping me decide what I wanted to do with my life, and that is write stories on the creepy side.
I'm 3500 words from a successful graduation. I found this channel the summer of 8th grade and discovering someone who wrote, narrated, provided music for, drew for, basically for being able to make it all happen. It gave me so much hope and inspiration. My very first finals all those years ago I binged the music to help me power through an all nighter of studying. 7 years later, with only 2 days to go, here's to making it and getting through. Thank you!
Liam.. I totally understand moving on and growing as an artist. For me, it’s music. I put my heart and soul into what I do and I wholeheartedly know that you did the same in this channel. These stories helped me through a time in my life when I didn’t know how much longer I’d last. They helped me calm down.. helped me fall asleep.. helped me escape from other people.. helped inspire me to keep trying to do what I do. And while I understand that artists look back on their old work very critically, I also understand that having a record of such work is so important.
The amount of respect I have for you is indescribable. And I know everyone here probably shares that sentiment. Thank you so much for being who you are and doing what you do. And please let me/us know if there is a way we can check out your future work- because I know damn well you’re gonna do some crazy shit in the future lol.
Also, if you see this and choose to respond, I’ll totally chat with you
I just finished watching every videos available here and I must say I had such a blast going through them that i couldn't put it in words.
Even tho I am as Late as heat death of the universe, I am So Glad that I get to listen to these stories.
Damn, dude. Well, I'm at least glad this existed on my life and enjoyed all the cringe and binge ( You think I'm joking? ) and my best friend and sister enjoyed it too. I do truly hope things go better for both your other channel but also real life cause it can be tough. I'll still subscribe this channel even though it's now as dead as Sarah ( haha I made joke lol ) and I guess I'll be more active on the other or maybe resurrect on the discord server since I'm on it too. good luck, my friend!
How sad. Your work was what made me love the horror genra. I hope everything will go ok for you
Thank you, Liam. Thank you for everything!
It's been a year... I still come back you have put a impact to me even tho I haven't been here for the start I was here for the end
We will miss you a lot. ❤️ I hope you keep your stores here so we can come back and listen. And good luck Liam. Thanks for getting me through times when I felt the loneliness.
Liam, are you still there? I know you've retired this channel and are no longer uploading your own original content, but me and my friend CarlB1961 have been huge fans for years. CarlB's a Reddit NoSleep writer and he would be honored to have you narrate some of his stories...if you ever change your mind.
I'll miss you're spooky stories on this channel, have a good rest of your life and good luck with your new channel! ^^
I started watching these pretty recently and I have to say that I still enjoy these videos. IM STILL WATCHING THE DESIGN SERIES! But it’s sad that this channel is coming to a end. But this is a super creative and entertaining channel to watch. You’ve come so far. 👍
I unironically loved PuppetGAME, the descriptions of deaths and actions are so spooky they send chills. Ponder is a horrifying host and his theme song is an absolute bop. Even if door guy was ironicly goofy he always ended up cracking me up, the chair scene in the ship with kali had me rolling. The whole series has this hilariously horrifying aesthetic and I love it. Best of luck on your future projects Liam! Until next time :)
Thank you for all your lovely works I thoroughly enjoy them all and want to wish you luck with all your future endeavors. I also like that you gave us a official end to the Channel and gave us some sense of the endings to all the stories that would have driven me mad trying to picture how it would have ended 😂
On a side note would it be ok for me to use some of your ideas for a book I’m trying to make specifically the creatures and there powers😅
Really sad to hear that you will be leaving. I've loved all of your work the stories the music and the cold love story game has been a huge part of my own journey. I hope you find success in what ever it is you pursue in the future. I will certainly going through your works again. Glad to hear design has a happy ending. Kinda writing this as I listen, so excuse it being so patchwork. Wow that twist with puppet game sounds like it would have been interesting. Already subscribed to the animated channel but looking forward to the new stuff glad we won't be losing you. We all really love you and your work.
Liam, when I heard your story, I was flabbergasted. Puppet game was how I got introduced into this channel and I loved the story concept and the creativity you put into it. Then I heard your music, and I believe your music surpasses many. I hope you continue your story telling career and one day can put your stories like puppet game and design on the big screen.
Only just found this channel. It's so cool to see Liam's origins and makes me appreciate how long it takes to develop his current level of skill.
It saddens me to hear that you are no longer making content for this channel. I loved these stories, but this is a nice closure. A final farewell.
We’re gonna miss you bro, You made good stories good music. You do you and we all wish you the best for your career in the future. Good luck man.
