it would be so funny if one of these exploring things turned out to have zero actual unfiction and everyone just tricked Nick into watching all of some random dude's youtube channel
An unfiction project that is definitely fictional and scripted, but exists solely to blueball anybody investigating it. Twelve Tapes is probably the closest we’ve gotten to that, and it rules
21:22 just come to the realisation that he’s calling the pets “cat” “dog” instead of their names like he doesn’t know, and the dog was nervous because they only recently met hmmmmmm
I just want to address one of your live-chatters, "Wouldn't the pets see what happened to the parents?" ...uh...and? What are you expecting the pets to do? Alert the police? Accuse him of murder? Take the stand in court? "Did you see what the bad man did...creatures?" "Meow, your honour." "BORK."
How-to-Henry, the cousin of beloved AlanTutorial Edit: didn’t know that about the heel of the bread. Thanks NIghtMind, I learn so many different things through your videos 😂
So I wanted to swing back after ruminating on this one for a couple days and give my thoughts. The implied story I took away from this series is that Henry, an intellectually and/or developmentally disabled man, grew up in this house with his father. At some point, his father passed away. Events happened which led to Henry losing the house, whether he moved to a care situation or just made homeless. The family with the baby and pets bought the house. Henry returned 'home' and knew how to get into the house, and he still felt that he had a right to live there, but did understand that he wouldn't be permitted by the new family, so he stayed and hid while they were awake (and with the dad working a night shift and them worn out from the baby, he was able to get away with it). He felt responsible to contribute in some way, hence 'helping' take care of the pets and tidying up. Everything goes to shit when the wife's brother visits for Christmas and falls asleep watching TV. Henry panics and attacks him, then can't handle the fallout, abducting and possibly killing him or leading to his death. The videos in the tutorial format are both a nod to Alan Tutorial and an extension of that helper mentality, he wants to help people even though the things he's teaching are extremely basic. These are things he's figuring out how to do while hiding in this home without getting caught. They're also an attempt to connect, because he's isolated and lonely. He never actually seems malicious, there's never any apparent anger or resentment directed towards the family, but he was in a fucked up situation and things spiraled. Wearing the wedding ring and claiming to be going to work I'm not sure, maybe an attempt to connect/imitate/integrate himself into the family in the home? I see some anger at the protagonist being mentally unwell, but in this particular case I think it's less warranted. He is, but it's not the horror aspect, it's not a 'being schizophrenic makes you evil and dangerous' stereotype. Holy cow that was a wall of text. lemme make some paragraph breaks.
That's a lot of solid thinking through, and I like it. The idea that Henry may have originally and truly lived there is pretty good to me as a concept of why and how this happened.
I could be way off here, but I got the vibe that he never really left the house. He says “I’ve lived here my whole life”. There’s no telling how long the house could have been on the market before being bought, or my personal favourite is that theres been many families through the house and he usually camps out in the attic but this family decided to use the attic, leading him to move down to the basement. After the basement proves to be unsuitable he has to do something and thats when everything starts to unravel.
God it would be so badass if the twist was that he wasnt a home invader but some entity or entities took over his home and he was forced into hiding- Okay, i now realize that I am kind of describing PostContent...
I love how my comment readout is right at the start of the footage lol Seriously, being there to watch it that night really felt good because it felt so familiar to me. Clearly drawing inspiration from one of the earliest projects I watched your coverage on, but still packing its own punches in completely different ways you could slowly piece together on your own.
I gotta say, after waves upon waves of complex, highly edited but ultimately flawed in execution projects, having a short, simple, extremely effective one fills me with hope. There are people out there who know what they can do and they do it damn well
I wish i was in the live, people kept sharing theories that made no sense lol. "He isnt a home invader, his parents died with his baby sibling" but he said he doesn't even know the animals names. This is not his house. It is obvious by the way he speaks alone lol
something interesting i noticed right away - that dog's "water dish" looks EXACTLY like the bowl that goes to my rice cooker, including the numbers on the inside. not the most unusual thing in the world, but an interesting piece.
Am I the only person that likes the heels of the bread? They make great peanut butter sammitches! But oooooh, the uncomfy feelings with this one. Having someone unknowingly living in your home is one of my biggest fears, but at least he did some laundry and dishes? He could have just been awful, but he did two nice things. Along with all the trauma.
Maybe it’s just that I’m along for the ride with you, but seeing a fresh horror series concurrently with you is. Uncomfortable in a good way? This is the closest I’m going to get to actually seeking out a horror project in progress, and this mixed feeling of “I want to know how this ends” and “I really don’t want to see Henry get shot” is what I come to horror for. I am waiting for this to all burn down, and god it’s a slow burn. Edit: I did mean it, but I did not mean to immediately jinx it by saying “wonder if he gets shot” five minutes before being told there’s a tutorial on how to treat a bullet wound
Hey; I was a big critic of these livestream uploads when they first came up but I want to say that you've done extremely well to understand why members of your audience had trouble with it and found ways to adapt the formula without compromising the live experience. I am enjoying watching these as a post-upload UA-cam viewer. I really appreciate growth and introspection in the artists I follow and I am always impressed with the quality of your work. Awesome stuff!
Inspiring to a want-to-be creator with no money but loads of ideas. I think I might give this a shot someday... Also, i love this format, Nick! Always fun to watch things unfold with you!
as a cat owner cats will not trust an intruder that easily so whoever they are the cats clearly trust them as there tails are up and arent meowing madly or biting or scratching them or just hiding, there booping there head against there hand and following them so they must be familiar with them to the point of being that conformable around this person
Idk, I have one cat who you would never see with a stranger present, and another that was loving on my cousins the first time he ever saw them. Really depends on the cat.
Not sure if anyone commented on it yet, or during the stream when it was live, but the most chilling moment for me was when Henry took the sleeping person's glasses off the nightstand around 45:05: He took the glasses so that when the person downstairs fought back, and screamed and yelled, and the sleeping person was woken up, they wouldn't be able to see- they wouldn't be able to get down the stairs, and they wouldn't be able to help until it was too late. And then, when they did stumble blindly downstairs, they would be at a severe disadvantage against their assailant, and have no idea what Henry looked like if they survived to tell anyone about it. As a strong prescription glasses haver, this is a nightmare scenario I think about often, lol. The implication that Henry knows these strangers very well, and premeditated the attack, is SO good for building layers to the horror of the scenario without saying it out loud. It's been a long time since an internet horror project made me feel dread and unease like this.
Hmm, it could be he was an in-patient or in a group home for sometime before, then for reason's unknown to us he returned to his "home", which his family may have moved from, but he is unaware or unable to realize its a problem.
Okay listen let me blow your mind we are up here in Western New York and we use mayonnaise lol just a light layer of mayonnaise instead of butter and it's so crispy and creamy you wouldn't even believe it!
Alton Brown has an interesting one, that involves dijon mustard and olive oil. I've always wanted to try it, but never gotten around to it. ua-cam.com/video/NpB3-2kpvFQ/v-deo.html
Nonono, you use a thin scrape of good quality *mayonnaise* to crisp the outside; trust. And literally never, ever yellow slime faux cheese. Strong Cheddar, red Leicester, add mozzarella if you feel fancy.
Don't throw out the crust like my mom used to always say that's where the vitamins hide you won't grow up big and strong if you don't eat the crust of the bread XD
Too many slice. Put two of those cheese away >o The best way I've found works best btw is to put the butter into the pan and let it melt a bit and then put the sandwich into the buttered pan. It soaks up the butter really nicely and then you only have to worry about adding a little more butter when it's time to flip it.
When I heard Wally say "that's the most" I literally thought that it was coming from the video and I was like "is this part of the welcome home arg???" Because that would be a twist.
Me and my family have always saved the ends of the loaf so that we can get an end piece sandwhich. Who ever can actually make an end piece sandwhich is considered lucky, more often than not you end up getting one normal piece and one end piece, and then an extra end piece that you either use for a half sandwhich, toast or just throw out
Surprised myself by seeing my own comments back from 2 years ago. *laughs* What I arrived to as the conclusion after watching the project as it grew back then is that the guy is not just a home invader, but rather a stalker? His "How To Henry" monicker was a short for "how to become Henry"? I don't think it's his real name. The flashdrive he found was of one of the bigger kids. He saw that, and as mentally unstable person, he wanted to shoot more how-tos in the same vain to cheer him up after losing his younger bro, or maybe as an apology attempt after hurting him? Anyway, the dress-up in their clothes, "helping" around the house and familiarizing himself with the pets rather show he wants to embody someone he previously observed. Thanks for this trip down the memory lane.
Definitely getting Alantutorial vibes from this one, right out the gate. Except Henry isn't quite Alan, and is probably a little closer to HowToBasic. Also, the heel ("butt") of the bread can, in the right circumstances, be folded into an ersatz hot dog bun. Also also, the golden rule with lube is "use as much as you think you need, and then some more", 'cause being overlubed is a better problem to have than being underlubed.
both henry AND nick are wrong. the two ends of the bread loaf are obviously the bonus snacks you can eat while preparing both your first and last meals with the loaf of bread in the bag. no, but seriously, here's my theory - henry's possibly mentally ill or intellectually-challenged, and he really _has_ been living in that house for years- except something happened to his parents when he was younger, but instead of going into foster care, he stayed in the house he'd always lived in because he didn't want to leave. the house was put up for sale since henry had gone missing and the parents were no longer in the picture, and a new family moved in, unknowing that henry was still living there. it's possible that henry does have a job, perhaps a menial or low-skill position somewhere, which would be cause enough to explain why he left the house in the first place (other than to possibly forage for food, goodies to steal, etc.) and he's found creative ways to let himself back into the house over the years that the family who took over don't know about or can't predict. i think maybe at the end, he finally gets upset enough about other people living in " _his house_ " that he finally snaps and takes action.
It is 25 mins in and I wanna spew my theory since I missed the live xD I think he lives in the house, but as like... a basement kept child or someone who lives in the walls. The animals are too relaxed around him for him to be a total stranger. He *knows* the family to some degree, and the animals are comfortable with his scent and with being called to eat by him while also still being unknown by him. Feelin real People Under the Stairs, yk?
So, the cats and dog are CLEARLY familiar with Henry. He doesn't know their names, but they know he's around. I agree with the commenter who says that he likely wears their clothes. I think it's a way of getting the family's scent on him maybe so that the animals don't freak out at him as much?
Is anyone else wondering how many blown takes there were trying to grill that cheese with one hand? I’m guessing there were at least two where the bread fell off the oven and one where he couldn’t get the cheese slices separated.
While I like this, like, I got genuinely intrigued... I just wish I could see neurodivergent or mentally ill person as a protagonist somewhere. And not a baby-mind protagonist. I am getting kinda tired of baby-minded, autistic (??) characters... I know a bunch of people who are autistic and can do childish things/behave childish, but not like this, and who also can be mature. Not like a literal child. I mean, I know there are mentally handicapped people who totally ARE this way - I still remember the news where something happened near a place taking care of heavily handicapped people, and so police insisted on interrogating all its patients, which really angered some caretakers, because for example they interrogated a guy who could literally only say "I'm a happy Matty. I'm a happy Matty." for like an hour while he just repeated the same phrase more and more distressed... I know people like this exist, and it is intriguing, and sometimes emotional to see such people face weird things... But like... I feel in fiction, those are to depict autistic people, and it is like.... this is a reason why I could not make myself fully enjoy AlanTutorial, because how... hard infantilised he was. Whatever he had was not just autism. I want an autistic, non baby-brained protagonist who has weird quirks, and issues, and anxieties and habits or whatever bullshit, but is not the spooky of the story for once, who is more aware, who can be the hero of it. Not be the spooky crazy invader, stalker, schemer, dangerous lunatic, or having rage attacks person or something, but be the hero of the tale.
This is what's bothering me about this one. There's obviously a baby that lives there. A real life baby. There's no way someone is using ALL that baby gear for props. It's most likely the creators baby or little brother. My point is, unless they are using all those dishes and leaving rooms an absolute mess before cleaning them up after he's done filming, that baby is living is a VERY messy house.
This series is REALLY good but if I may critique it just a bit- I don't know if I really like the two episodes that take place after the Christmas one? it adds another layer to the story that doesnt feel entirely necessary and it kinda throws off the pacing at least for me...
I would bury this kid in a grilled cheese making competition 😂 You gotta use salted sweet cream butter, and you gotta butter it to the very edges! And on both sides. Then, you gotta use the GOOD cheese. Examples that I will accept are: sharp white cheddar, extra sharp cheddar (yellow), Muenster + provolone or gruyere, and if you MUST use American cheese, it must be Deli fresh deluxe American, preferably white. That sounds racist. 😂 Turn the burner to med/low, around 3 or 4 on my oven, and once it's heated, add the bread, then pile the cheese, then the next slice of bread. If you want some extra flavor, sprinkle some minced onion amd garlic on both slices of bread - do one side, then flip and do the other, before they are cooked. Then cover the pan to ensure maximum meltiness of the cheese. Flip after the cheese is halfway melted, and it's finished when the cheese starts oozing out the sides. You're welcome. 😂
wait how did bro make a grilled cheese in there house without them noticing? that sizzle and clanking are pretty loud so that would of stirred one of them awake or at least the animals ya know,so maybe they were at work?? idk that just confuses me
i feel like these animals are helping us tell this story, we gotta read and understand animal body language both the dog and cat found this intruder trust worthy and didn't see a need to attack or alert the owners the dog when we first saw them there tail wag down but still wagging and at the last vid so far the dog had enough trust in this person to let them take them on a walk so far the cats have only shown there tails up and wanting pets but so far have not shown there belly's witch is how you know for sure that these cats fully trust this fella so will wait and see so i don't think the animals fully trust the intruder but they trust them and that's what matters here
@@SpecialInterestShow Yes, at the time, I beleive the link wasn't in the description and just in a pinned comment. I see that it has now been added to the description, so that's nice... ...bit late considering I already went digging and found it manually, but still, nice to know I don't have to do that again if I want to binge those videos again :P
My dog would LOSE IT if a stranger came out in the middle of the night. In fact, she would have sniffed him out before that. Maybe this dog has no sense of smell.
I am so tired of these ARGs using symptoms of mental illness to portray their antagonists. We aren't going to invade your home or hurt your families. Idk if that's what is happening here, but I really liked Alan tutorial because Alan had mental issues and we still rooted for him because he didn't do nothing wrong. And that's the truth of the issue. I kind of wish Henry in this seemed more mature.
So, I got to the last little leg of the journey and want a do-over on my thoughts: this series could have been what the previous video was, but it wasn’t, and while Alan Tutorial was probably more constantly flawed about using autism as a plot point, the places this goes before pulling the most stereotyped crap imaginable totally pulled me out of the suspension of disbelief zone. This sucks. This sucks and I could have done better. The only thing keeping me from doing what’s done here is the fact I’d have to get a camera and lots of friends with houses and pets
But, but, overall, bad and dumb tropes aside, very well executed, the concept is fantastic, and lord knows that we can do so much worse even with autistic protagonists

The butt of the bread is a buffer and also for emergency “there’s no more food in the house and no money in the bank” sad sandwiches
They also make good hot dog buns in a pinch

That was true psychological horror right there.

Peak horror. PEAK.
So I've been reading a lot of Lore Olympus lately. So now Hades sounds like Nick in my head
Don't throw out the crust like my mom used to always say that's where the vitamins hide you won't grow up big and strong if you don't eat the crust of the bread XD
I don’t even make this much noise in my own house when people are sleeping, dude is the worst home-invader I’ve ever seen.
CHRISTMAS TUTORIAL IS SO GOOD
Brother your bread barrier strategy actually extracts more moisture from the bread within!!
Still a better grilled cheese than Gordon Ramsey's, tho
wait is this just Alan tutorial 2 electric boogaloo?
Too many slice. Put two of those cheese away >o
The best way I've found works best btw is to put the butter into the pan and let it melt a bit and then put the sandwich into the buttered pan. It soaks up the butter really nicely and then you only have to worry about adding a little more butter when it's time to flip it.

Who ever can actually make an end piece sandwhich is considered lucky, more often than not you end up getting one normal piece and one end piece, and then an extra end piece that you either use for a half sandwhich, toast or just throw out
I have that exact same food bowl for my Corgador.
A little mayo on the outsides of grilled cheeses….onto butter. I’ve never had more even and scrumptious gc’s
Surprised myself by seeing my own comments back from 2 years ago. *laughs*
What I arrived to as the conclusion after watching the project as it grew back then is that the guy is not just a home invader, but rather a stalker? His "How To Henry" monicker was a short for "how to become Henry"? I don't think it's his real name. The flashdrive he found was of one of the bigger kids. He saw that, and as mentally unstable person, he wanted to shoot more how-tos in the same vain to cheer him up after losing his younger bro, or maybe as an apology attempt after hurting him? Anyway, the dress-up in their clothes, "helping" around the house and familiarizing himself with the pets rather show he wants to embody someone he previously observed.
Thanks for this trip down the memory lane.
Hi night mind this was a really good but short one got really to the point and delivered!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I freaking love your voice and pace
Thank you! Glad you've enjoyed the format here. 8w8
Literally stole there Glasses an actual monster
there have been cases of people living hidden in other peoples homes before
instantly noticed how he says "the dog" or "the cat" - he even corrected himself once after accidentally saying "my"
Definitely getting Alantutorial vibes from this one, right out the gate. Except Henry isn't quite Alan, and is probably a little closer to HowToBasic.
Also, the heel ("butt") of the bread can, in the right circumstances, be folded into an ersatz hot dog bun. Also also, the golden rule with lube is "use as much as you think you need, and then some more", 'cause being overlubed is a better problem to have than being underlubed.
both henry AND nick are wrong. the two ends of the bread loaf are obviously the bonus snacks you can eat while preparing both your first and last meals with the loaf of bread in the bag.
no, but seriously, here's my theory - henry's possibly mentally ill or intellectually-challenged, and he really _has_ been living in that house for years- except something happened to his parents when he was younger, but instead of going into foster care, he stayed in the house he'd always lived in because he didn't want to leave. the house was put up for sale since henry had gone missing and the parents were no longer in the picture, and a new family moved in, unknowing that henry was still living there. it's possible that henry does have a job, perhaps a menial or low-skill position somewhere, which would be cause enough to explain why he left the house in the first place (other than to possibly forage for food, goodies to steal, etc.) and he's found creative ways to let himself back into the house over the years that the family who took over don't know about or can't predict.
i think maybe at the end, he finally gets upset enough about other people living in " _his house_ " that he finally snaps and takes action.
So much Alan tutorial vibes ❤
It is 25 mins in and I wanna spew my theory since I missed the live xD
I think he lives in the house, but as like... a basement kept child or someone who lives in the walls. The animals are too relaxed around him for him to be a total stranger. He *knows* the family to some degree, and the animals are comfortable with his scent and with being called to eat by him while also still being unknown by him.
Feelin real People Under the Stairs, yk?
The scariest part is storing the a bucket of dog food without a lid that's how you get roaches
Watching him try to make that "grilled cheese" at first was giving me great anxiety.
This dude sounds like Devin Palmer and I'm all about it
So, the cats and dog are CLEARLY familiar with Henry. He doesn't know their names, but they know he's around.
I agree with the commenter who says that he likely wears their clothes. I think it's a way of getting the family's scent on him maybe so that the animals don't freak out at him as much?
Solid bread advice
Hey! Love your content! btw this model should be illigal
My guy touched the trash then grabbed his bread and just kept making the sandwich. We’re about to go tussle
Is anyone else wondering how many blown takes there were trying to grill that cheese with one hand? I’m guessing there were at least two where the bread fell off the oven and one where he couldn’t get the cheese slices separated.
زبردست ویڈیو ❤️
next on the index: kingcobrajfs food hacks
those are a terror in their own right
Personal favorite was the roach burrito.
While I like this, like, I got genuinely intrigued...
I just wish I could see neurodivergent or mentally ill person as a protagonist somewhere. And not a baby-mind protagonist. I am getting kinda tired of baby-minded, autistic (??) characters... I know a bunch of people who are autistic and can do childish things/behave childish, but not like this, and who also can be mature. Not like a literal child.
I mean, I know there are mentally handicapped people who totally ARE this way - I still remember the news where something happened near a place taking care of heavily handicapped people, and so police insisted on interrogating all its patients, which really angered some caretakers, because for example they interrogated a guy who could literally only say "I'm a happy Matty. I'm a happy Matty." for like an hour while he just repeated the same phrase more and more distressed...
I know people like this exist, and it is intriguing, and sometimes emotional to see such people face weird things...
But like... I feel in fiction, those are to depict autistic people, and it is like.... this is a reason why I could not make myself fully enjoy AlanTutorial, because how... hard infantilised he was. Whatever he had was not just autism.
I want an autistic, non baby-brained protagonist who has weird quirks, and issues, and anxieties and habits or whatever bullshit, but is not the spooky of the story for once, who is more aware, who can be the hero of it. Not be the spooky crazy invader, stalker, schemer, dangerous lunatic, or having rage attacks person or something, but be the hero of the tale.
it's giving "Alan tutorials" vibes
This is what's bothering me about this one. There's obviously a baby that lives there. A real life baby. There's no way someone is using ALL that baby gear for props. It's most likely the creators baby or little brother. My point is, unless they are using all those dishes and leaving rooms an absolute mess before cleaning them up after he's done filming, that baby is living is a VERY messy house.
I wonder if he knows Alan
Short and NOT sweet at all but very enjoyable in how unsettling it is despite the simplicity for sure!
This series is REALLY good but if I may critique it just a bit- I don't know if I really like the two episodes that take place after the Christmas one? it adds another layer to the story that doesnt feel entirely necessary and it kinda throws off the pacing at least for me...
Did the stalker take the kid's name????
Was that young Henry?????
Spoilers?:
IT WAS YOUNG HENRY!!!!
I would bury this kid in a grilled cheese making competition 😂
You gotta use salted sweet cream butter, and you gotta butter it to the very edges! And on both sides. Then, you gotta use the GOOD cheese. Examples that I will accept are: sharp white cheddar, extra sharp cheddar (yellow), Muenster + provolone or gruyere, and if you MUST use American cheese, it must be Deli fresh deluxe American, preferably white. That sounds racist. 😂
Turn the burner to med/low, around 3 or 4 on my oven, and once it's heated, add the bread, then pile the cheese, then the next slice of bread. If you want some extra flavor, sprinkle some minced onion amd garlic on both slices of bread - do one side, then flip and do the other, before they are cooked. Then cover the pan to ensure maximum meltiness of the cheese. Flip after the cheese is halfway melted, and it's finished when the cheese starts oozing out the sides.
You're welcome. 😂
I'm early, let's go!!
wait how did bro make a grilled cheese in there house without them noticing? that sizzle and clanking are pretty loud so that would of stirred one of them awake or at least the animals ya know,so maybe they were at work?? idk that just confuses me
6:00 What is he quoting here, because I wanna see the context.
i feel like these animals are helping us tell this story, we gotta read and understand animal body language
both the dog and cat found this intruder trust worthy and didn't see a need to attack or alert the owners
the dog when we first saw them there tail wag down but still wagging and at the last vid so far the dog had enough trust in this person to let them take them on a walk
so far the cats have only shown there tails up and wanting pets but so far have not shown there belly's witch is how you know for sure that these cats fully trust this fella so will wait and see
so i don't think the animals fully trust the intruder but they trust them and that's what matters here
So that art that was at the start....👌💦
Alan tutorial dude absolutely killed the family & baby.. why? He REALLY wanted that dog lmaoo
Is Henry Phroging?
where's the link in description to view the content first before your analysis?
It's in there, just look for the How-To Henry Official Channel link. ::3
@@NickNocturneALI think op is confused cuz it's in the pinned comment, not the description
@@SpecialInterestShow Yes, at the time, I beleive the link wasn't in the description and just in a pinned comment. I see that it has now been added to the description, so that's nice...
...bit late considering I already went digging and found it manually, but still, nice to know I don't have to do that again if I want to binge those videos again :P
@@CCCM89 well for future reference always checked the pinned comment too since some people put it there and some put it in description 🤷
I keep forgetting Nick Nocturne is a furry vtuber
FURRY
I wasn't even looking at the video sometimes, just at Nick. Why is he so distractingly hot now?
My dog would LOSE IT if a stranger came out in the middle of the night. In fact, she would have sniffed him out before that. Maybe this dog has no sense of smell.
Some dogs are just really friendly and not trained to be aggressive with unexpected people.
@@kamenzero7283 that makes sense.
33:59 Huh....is Henry not fully literate? It seems he's not a good reader
Going by his writing later on, Henry definitely struggles with literacy. I think it’s safe to say he has an intellectual or developmental disability.
Why would you have to peal a banana one handed... unless the other is tied up maybe?
The other is holding the camera
I am so tired of these ARGs using symptoms of mental illness to portray their antagonists. We aren't going to invade your home or hurt your families. Idk if that's what is happening here, but I really liked Alan tutorial because Alan had mental issues and we still rooted for him because he didn't do nothing wrong. And that's the truth of the issue. I kind of wish Henry in this seemed more mature.
So, I got to the last little leg of the journey and want a do-over on my thoughts: this series could have been what the previous video was, but it wasn’t, and while Alan Tutorial was probably more constantly flawed about using autism as a plot point, the places this goes before pulling the most stereotyped crap imaginable totally pulled me out of the suspension of disbelief zone. This sucks. This sucks and I could have done better. The only thing keeping me from doing what’s done here is the fact I’d have to get a camera and lots of friends with houses and pets
But, but, overall, bad and dumb tropes aside, very well executed, the concept is fantastic, and lord knows that we can do so much worse even with autistic protagonists
Love the streams!!! Love the vods!!! Keep up the amazing work
