    This video becomes more spooky when you realize in Minecraft 1.3 they changed the single-player client into a multiplayer client private session, basically you're running a private server for yourself and you're supposed to be the only one who can play that server until you choose to open it up and give someone else a link to join, so that's what Mojang did back then, and that What makes this video more spooky.

    The feeling of being watched actually is when your unconscious mind has seen something else’s eyes in your peripheral vision before you even realize it. Basically it means you’ve already spotted what’s watching you subconsciously and you haven’t noticed it in your conscience mind
    Edit: it more has to do with the fact that our subconscious brain can recognize patterns quicker than our conscious (our normal vision) can. It’s kinda like a fight or flight response. We notice we are being watched and it keeps us on our guard. And it’s less of a paranormal thing and more of a survival thing

    the scary thing is that this can totally be real, Minecraft's Singleplayer feature already hosts a server but other players are not allowed to join, I don't know if the telemetry options can enable that, but if so, this could totally happen, combine Coppenheimer (bot that joins random servers and also found servers like the dreamsmp and hermitcraft and so on) and that exploit, then that can stream the perspective of the camera player, intriguing.

    I think one thing that makes minecraft so great for horror aspects is it’s friendly and easy going nature. The game has a very wholesome vibe and pretty surface level, until you hear certain cave sounds, a mob that looks too creepy or weird ruins. Your mind starts to race as you think there could be something deeper in the game itself. I remember I was exploring a forest area and I heard these chains or some very loud creaking noises as I stared into the foggy distant skybox, wondering what could those chains be withholding

    The concept of the minewatch website is interesting, but i feel it would be better if the ARG only included the recordings of the site showing different worlds. A lot of these though turn into an elaborate story where the person making the videos is targeted by the entity or admins and they become more distressed while writing about it in detail and then eventually encountering them in thir world. I remember another ARG involving many admins coming after the uploader as well. Keeping these simple makes these better rather than becoming a conspiracy where everything is connected with spoopy messages and becoming the same thing as other ARGs.

    If this concept could be real, and be given permission from the servers being used, this concept could be a cool idea for a massive cross-server scavenger hunt. Having people having to figure out not only which popular server the cameras are being used on, but the exact location would be a ton of fun. Imagine hiding one a long way out in 2b2t. Could even use the Minecraft@Home technology for some really difficult ones.

      At some points like 15:10 he does sound different but I think he is using a more forced voice to separate between his own narrative and quotes from the actual ARG like 15:10. He could have used an AI for this but it seems like a filter.
      AI voices are getting good though, on my channel I had a few people who thought my real voice was an AI so on April 1st I "confessed" as a joke using my real voice saying I was an AI. This backfired when people actually believed it.
