"I'M THE ****ING UNIVERSE!!!"
I started laughing way harder at that then I really should have.
I think that, at least for me, the humor is derived from trying to imagine a group of game writers sitting around and coming around to decide that that line was the coolest option they had going for them. ...and also probably from the fact that unlike crap like "All your bases are belong to us," I'm not reminded of that line particularly often, so it always seems _freshly_ stupid whenever I hear it.
@@savursool3291 not to be a smartass but I'm a child and both me and my friend cuss like it's a normal thing
His face when he looks at the camera during the ad... You can just feel his pain.
Warding Nocturne the joke is that people generally don't like ads or doing them. It's not that hard of a concept to grasp
One of the best things about the original Alone in the Dark trilogy is, that it manages a thick and suspenseful horror atmosphere without any gore.
PS not sure if it's because I've grown up with this game, but your jokes are hilarious in this one. The hiding in the closet was on point.
DUDE the 7th Guest was so horrifying to me, but probably because I played it - and this - as a kid. I couldn't finish this one, too much!
Coming back to watch old videos to support Projared now that all of the new information has come to light. Hope his channel recovers!
flammingheadman drrr I’ve seen the numbers rise.
Keep the word of mouth spreading everybody.
Aye. I never watched his stuff, but I figured now would be an appropriate time to give his stuff a look.
I don't know how many I've watched by now, haha.
Do you ever wonder if Edward Carnby's original design was an influence on Nigel Thornberry's appearance?
"Your mother was a shoe cobbler." Best. Insult. Ever.
Doesn't beat "Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!", but it's still good.
Wow people sure are mad about the completely skippable ad.
Jared gotta make money dudes. And don't pretend you aren't using adblock for the regular ads anyway.
you know you have a good fanbase when you don't get immediately torn to shreds for being sponsored.
The most interesting part is I have found 10 plus comments hating on people who are hating Jared for the sponsorship and ad but have yet to find a single comment that is hating him for it...
I found 2 compared to 6 that complain about the complainers, so definitely a little lopsided. But at least it makes me happy knowing that people don't mind ProJared selling out a little. The guy's gotta eat.
So Best Fiends Forever is a game where you just tap on things mindlessly? Isn't that the same as Final Fantasy: All The Bravest?
I don't think ProJared disapproved of the concept, it's more the fact that the game had pretty much forced gambling with real money and it was shallow as hell for a final fantasy game and was basically a cash grab. There are plenty of semi fun clicker games out there and the fact that he ascended in this one means that he actually did play it enough to know what it is. It's still kind of annoying to see that ad though.
Sakura clicker is the better clicker where you click the body parts of anime chicks.
I think it had to do more with the fact that the game took the final fantasy name and used it as a cash grab tactic.
I love how he played the Sid Meyer’s Pirates music when talking about the pirate enemy.
I like ProJared, he's like the good timeline version of Spoony
Some of his film reviews were awesome as well, especially The Reb Brown and Highlander ones. But his stuff started to get really bitter and negative. I know he had personal problems, but it wasn't fun seeing that manifest on camera
Wow I think there are more people bitching about other people bitching about the ad than there are people actually complaining about the ad.
I think that the people bitching about people bitching about the ad did so more recently, and were more popular, due to their welcome meta-commentary on a tired subject. So they're what you're seeing now. There are probably just about as many people who bitched about the ad, but you'd have to load more comments to see them.
Those zombies belong in a Scooby Doo game
What? No score?
I'd personally give it a "I AM THE F*CKING UNIVERSE!" out of 10.
Jared should do final fantasy month. It would be kind of like dndcember. Would be great to hear his thoughts of each of the games and some of the spinoffs
No, we don't know your problems, and it's none of our business. Hope you learned your lesson, internet.
So the best Fiends game is just a game where you tap a bunch. Seems riveting.
That's >90% of mobile games in a nutshell when you put it in basic terms
DiamondDead No, I'm all for my favorite UA-camrs making money. And hey, games like that are for SOMEONE out there, just not me.
DiamondDead No one can live without money, unless you're living in the wild with a wolf pack
DiamondDead And of course he plays other games. Not every game he plays or shows he watches is something he likes. He streams to keep up with the fans during his monthly absence, and videos are a lot harder to make than you realize. It can take up to working 3 hours for a whole week to release just an okay video, and putting in effort means putting in more hours. Yes, there is not benefits of health insurance or fixed incomes, but there's clearly more to making videos than just "gotta find a job I can do" unless you make videos solely for cash. Plus, a simple 8 hour job can take out a lot more time from making videos than you think. Some people don't release for months because of job issues, school, or even working in the military. There's nothing wrong with sponsors so long as you do it in the right way (short 1 minute advertisement), but you're just seeing the bad side of it. I would be pissed if Jared went full sellout, but I don't agree on fully individual, no advertisement system as I never was a man who thought leaning towards one side or the other too much is a good idea.
I appreciate the music in the background. Using one of my all-time favorite game soundtracks, Luigi's Mansion!
2:25 "Is this relevant?... No, it does not."
*_BRAVO JARED_*
Me and my friends have started playing D&D and it's really fun!
we started playing 2 weeks ago, im going over today in a few hours to play again. Oh, this is my other account for some reason i cant see replys to my comments on my other one so i need to reply using this one.
The Living Skit Same here. Friday before last was our first time. One of the guys I was playing with kept wanting to murder hobos and we hadn't even run into each other yet.
3:28 may be one of my all-time fav ProJared moments right beside flashing the toilet
Take Notes Atari, This is the Alone of the Dark that we all loved!
Wait, what's your final rating for this game?
I would rate it a rotary phone/10; dated but an essential part of gaming history on how the horror genre got shaped forever. XD
Not to mention that despite being dated, it still has pretty cool designs, mechanics, and GRAPHICS!!!
Andrew P. Soberon Is it strange that I find an appeal with old graphics?
I know they are severely dated, but they have a certain charm to them.
To quote JonTron, what makes graphics appealing despite being dated is that it's "a style not bred by choice, but by limitation."
My marathon of rewatching, liking, and commenting on every Jared video continues. Video 40
You are very special. You do you and make the world a more special place...
Not that you need me to tell you that.
Original "Alone in the Dark" is one of my most favorite games ever. It is really atmospheric and charming.
I find it sad that the frog at 2:23 was more scary than anything else in the game.
***** Yeah, I wasn't a 90's kid. But I can still imagine how scared I'd be of this game.
I think Nosferatu is still pretty freaky to this day, though. Something about it is still scary to me.
I think that dumb "AAH" face the frog has is super funny and kinda cute actually. Pictures of animals with their mouths wide open are so funny to me for some reason
Thanks for the honest and completely uninfluenced recommendation for a random app Jared... XD
"Kids. Don't read. Play video games!"
- ProJared
You know, I kind of almost feel like this series could've had potential for a revitalization of sorts. Though, unlike the sort of reboot...-ish game for Xbox and Ps3, given the whole concepts of the original and this whole remake scene with games like the recent RE2 remake, there could be a chance for Alone in the Dark to return for modern gaming in the future (assuming some rights-holding nonsense isn't going on).
I think it was a mistake to leave the original games timeline. I like the idea of Edward being a 1920s detective because it gives the series flavor in comparison to modern survival horrors
@@moulinexm7600 Hell, they could've at least said that the Edward in 2008 was the great-grandson of the original Edward in the first game. Hell, they could've eve nwritten him as some half-assed clone of the original guy. But saying he's the same mustached protagonist from 1924? Come on, man.
If I were a kid I'd probably find this game scary, but then again I was scared when I first saw Dr. Eggman.
a giant fat man who can run at the speed of light and creates giant death robots. I wonder why people were only scared of eggman in sonic spinball!
maybe not, but he probably was referring to how eggman outran sonic in one of the original sonics.
Why is everyone getting mad at Jared for "selling out"? Seeing as youtube is becoming more advertiser friendly, I'm happy that my favorite youtubers can still make money and keep their content relatively the same with this option. Also you can just skip it and if your internet is too slow maybe you should sell out so you can make more money and afford to.
Oh no, I had to wait an entire minute to get through an ad that Jared gets money from! I'm going to bitch in the comments to express how mad I am!
Spreading the love in the comments as I watch the video!
If I was asked to say a bunch of things about a random mobile game and got payed for it. I would do it without a second thought.
We all would, no question.
People act like they wouldn't but when faced with it, we would all do it.
I wouldn't. I would only accept sponsors for things I actually have an interest/faith in. I don't give a single fuck about mobile games in general because they are absolute garbage
Unless the sponsor pays significantly more to put the ad at the beginning of the video or pays by retention time at the ad, I'd suggest putting it at the end. This results in less bitching about the ad in the comments.
I LOVED this game when I was a kid! I could never beat it, but was able to watch my best friend do it. Great video ProJared!
If you ever need extra people in your camera crew let me know!
This was the first video game I ever played.
Yeah... my parents didn't make the best parental decisions.
Did... Did Dino Crisis appear at the bottom of the screen...? 1:46
It's essentially Resident Evil with dinosaurs. What's not to love. I never actually played the original but I love the sequel.
Why are so many people complaining about the advertisements?It doesn't take out any time from the video and it's pretty informative.
Dude, this is a great blend of introduction to the game and some jokes. I particularly love that closet closing shot.
Your ad made me smile. And also reminded me of the fun adverts before watching some of my favorite VHS tapes, back in the day.
Like 50% of the comments down here keep going on about ads and shit, while I'm left wondering why the final rating isn't in the video. :/
Everything attributed to this game started in Sweet Home. This game only introduced fixed camera angles and pre-rendered backgrounds. Also, Edward is there for a piano, not the suicide.
Jeeeeeeeeesus, people got so butthurt over the ad, it's not even funny.
I mean, guys, I know that 61 second of your time is priceless, you could've cured canser in that time, espesially when watchign UA-cam videos, and I know that you get shot in the leg every time you skip further in the video, so you can't avoid parts of the video you don't like, and as far as not giving any ad revenue adblock doesn't cut it anymore, so...
I have a very special method to avoid all ads for the rest of your life! It's a pretty simple life-hack, really, it's called nailblock. You take two nails, put them on the table, so that they line up with your eyes, and then you headbutt that shit! Ta-da! You don't have to gaze at any ad ever agin in your life!
+Demilung in the time you've spent watching UA-cam videos, you could've learned to spell, and use grammar properly!
This game is one of the reason I got into PC gaming. The soundtrack and sound effects were amazing back then.
Honestly, I don't give a shit about the ad but I do find it hilarious that advertisers think that this would make me want to play their game, at all and not make me just resent them forever. Shit like this makes me guarantee that I will never, ever play your game.
So I gotta thank ProJared for that. In actuality, he's looking out for you.
Jared! You forgot to give a final rating!
"Your mother is a shoe cobbler" is the most meaningless insult I've ever heard.
It's great.
How appropriate, you fight like a cow!
Answer meaningless insults with meaningless responses :P
@@klop4228 Your father was a test tube and your mother was a rubber band!
Alone in the Dark faithful reimagining announced!!!
I came back here the moment it got announced!
At least its not sponsored by Lootcrate...
FieryFortifier is rather it be sponsored by lootcrate than some trash mobile game.
Tim Wielgot I'm just saying that because UA-camrs are sponsored by Lootcrate ALL THE DAMN TIME EVERY OTHER VIDEO, and usually they talk about how *great* the Lootcrates are when they're opening them in their 2 minute long paid pandering, when they're usually subjectively filled with worthless *shit* in the eyes of most people. As a result, its more bearable to see a sponsor that's not so over used on the internet...
GameGrumps is often sponsored by Lootcrate, and they make great ads. I don't think you can make that great of an ad about some mobile game, so I would find it sadder if the same ad was about Lootcrate, because there isn't much potential you can out into an ad about a game where you mindlessly tap the screen.
Is it weird that during the one time a content creator is considerate enough to manually add an annotation allowing me to skip the ad, I'm compelled to let the ad run? What is this feeling? Respect? Nah, it couldn't be.
I came to watch this AFTER I watched Jared's playthrough on the other channel - I giggled at several points remembering how much trouble some of the monsters and puzzles gave him!
Glad you're back, Jared!
Well THAT was a good time to log into UA-cam...
The Golden Bolt hey it's that guy I subbed too and then never watched any of his vids :P
Rayehn of the Filth Oh, I don't set the little notification bell on channels or anything. I just happened to open up YT at the perfect moment!
No problem with you advertising Jared but as a subscriber, I would prefer to see you only endorse things you sincerely like & would genuinely suggest to others. Who knows, maybe you really do like that smartphone game....but I doubt it. I hope you get better advertising opportunities in the future, perhaps something you're _really_ passionate about. *Thank* *You* for another great video by the way.
Stephen O'Brien The problem with that is how sponsorships work. The sponsor contacts the medium, not the other way around. This means that ProJared can't just say "Hey, Squeenix, can you pay me to do a Chrono Trigger ad for you? Yeah? Cool!" That's just not how that works. When selecting an advertisement, you can only get paid for what companies have offered you to advertise. With ProJared's more minor popularity on UA-cam, I have a feeling this was one of the only sponsors available.
If such is the case, then that really would be tragic, because it practically just made me lose respect for him that he'd practically advertise something that he probably doesn't enjoy that much.
New Alone in the Dark, baby!!
And its a remake/reimagining of this game which is happy to hear after the release of "that game from 2008"
You are a savior with your skip ad annotation! I understand that you need to make money so sponsorships and ads are necessary, but while binge-ing your videos, its nice to get straight to the action. Really appreciate everything you do, keep it up! :D
"I'm the F@#king universe!"
"NOT THAT ONE!"
He didn't give it a rating.
Such gentleman having to awkwardly jump platforms wearing elegant clothes and bow tie to fight the gatekeeper of hell... I miss the 90's
This comment section is full of 9-year-old kids calling Jared a sellout
some say he needs to eat..
then in the same comment proceed to say how he shouldn't put in ads like that..
He told his fans to play a game that siphons money from you and the entire game is literally tapping the screen. His fans should be able to trust what he says
when are you going to review ff6?
Buttobi fine 6 and 9 maybe 12 at best but their are people who ripped 10,7,8 apart but earthbound is the list or mother 3
That adevertisement didn't need to be that long.
your right the companie should have showered him with money for saying "wow guys these guys are paying me to tell you to play this game gottagobye!"
Hey Jared, since you've left screw attack, I'm happy to see you've found your own jam. Cheers man, keep up the great work!
That's why my final rating is a Twilight Zone/10
*Shows you don't need to even be looking at the screen to succeed in Best Fiends*
Looks like a fun game.
Nice throwback to a true classic. This game is in my tops of all time.
I'm loving the comment section right now pretty much nothing but love and support let's get our boy back to over a million subs!
No video game title has more accurately described my love life.
@@CybernikTheHedgehog bruh you commented the same thing making fun of jared 🤔
SO... Jared you spent too much money via playing and to pay your debt you're pushing the mobile game?
B.T. Smith lol there gonna break his legs if he doesnt. few upgrades my ass lol.
Dude this game scared the s**t out of my little sister and I all the way back in 92-93. So scary. I remember having a blast playing this game.
6:46 Fear not the man who tries a thousand different kicks, but kicks the same a thousand times.
Love your videos! Hope to see more!
He didn't do the "random object" out of 10 thing like he usually does :(
Considering that this game is 26 years old, these computer graphics were pretty advanced. The pre-rendered backgrounds still look pretty good.
With Adpocalypse I can understand the ad in the vid. Plus it won't kill you to skip it manually if you absolutely must.
If youtube won't give us ads then we can just make our own.
Hello darkness by old fiend...
i've come to bring upon you light... BECAUSE I'M THE FUCKING LIGHTBRINGER!!!
"i've come to bring upon you light... BECAUSE I'M THE FUCKING LIGHTBRINGER!!!"
OH, GOD NO! NOT THAT ALONE IN THE DARK! At least THAT ONE wasn't Illumination... or the Uwe Boll shitfest for that matter.
1:30 After seeing Jared's Doki Doki Literature Club gameplay, I can safely say that game is on that list now.
Bless you jared, putting in your own skip ad button
I love how the faces are made out of a handful of tris. GREAT!
Hey, Jared, play the other other sequel! It's called "Alone With a Dork".
So the thing that spits fire... is weak to fire?
Louis Thrift Well, yeah, once you put the talisman down to nullify its magic.
thanks for the ad it introduced me to one of my favorite games of all time now
8:07 Literally got out of my seat to check if my phone was ringing. That’s my ringtone.
Jared, you didn't even RATE IT.
I'm supposed to be playing Best Fiends Forever but this one player keeps kicking my ass...
Thanks for the nostalgia. I remember being quite scared as a 9 year old.
This game is honestly so Classic
I don't mind the ad at the beginning for that app, Jared's human, he's gotta eat and buy fancy blue shirts too ya know!
Corsair Carl I dont mind it either but every one is doing it so i know the first part they say out the top of my head😂😂
Corsair Carl I'm still going to tease him about it
I wouldn't have mind it either, though the fact that it was another one of those "Free to Play" scams is what would bother me.
M LT All those games and micro-transactions are scams. Some are merely less slimy and underhanded than others, but they all rely on gamer addiction and impatience to compel them to put a lot of cash into the game just so they can see the rest of the content by making any "free" route, if there is one, as unappealing, tedious, and impossible as they can.
I only hate ads that you can't skip. Like I don't give a crap about the game so I hated not being able to skip it.
In general the only ads I sometimes like to watch on UA-cam are movie trailers.
If I don't know about a game then it's almost guaranteed I will have no interest in it.
