Hey, pssst, we're down here in the comments section... Enjoy these hiding places that were a bit obvious, but we totally got away with it somehow. Ssssshhhhhhhhhhh...
It's not that the minions of Ganon didn't know Link was in there. It's that they DID know he was in there. I wouldn't open a barrel with doom guy in it either.
Forsaken fortress sucks. You shuffle around in a barrel without being spotted. My favorite part is when the mice can take you *out* of the barrel then you get *cooked* *alived*
To be fair, if I was some low wage guard looking for a highly trained assassin/swordsman/batman then I probably would pretend I couldn't find them. Better to get shouted at by your boss then get murdered for doing your job.
Well, the choices here are more if I can't find them, they probably gonna sneak behind my back and slit my throat or at least knock me out cold. If that is not the best motivation to do your job properly, I don't know what is.
lem0nwings Only matched by Ellen's obviously increasing glee that she made the pun. It's a perpetual emotional fission machine that will expand until it engulfs the world. Then one Ellen's pun will go too far, and Andy's hatred will collapse it into a black hole of boos, and the solar system, if not the galaxy will be no more.
How many _boos and giggles_ does it take to produce a measurable amount of matter?? Are we there yet?! Just tell me, *how long do we have, man?!* On another note, it sounds like we just discovered a new element! The next great milestone in science! This is the _Millennium of Ellenium_ ! (sorry Andy, you understand.) I wonder what it tastes like...
When I'm playing Skyrim, I like stealthy characters. So a common situation I get myself in is when I've just shot a bandit and his buddy is trying to find me. But, there just so happens to be a pillar that I can dance around for two minutes until the bandit that's still standing declared his friend was killed by the *wind*
Rogues and feral druids in World of Warcraft can do that too. Most enemies will be completely oblivious to their presence, even when looking right at them.
My personal favorites are in Bethesda RPG games where, if you have a high enough stealth skill, the best and most conspicuous hiding spot is right in front of them.
I always laughed in ESO at the baskets the NPCs will never find you hiding in during stealth/trespass areas, despite the fact they chased you up to it, saw you jump in, then apparently because they have the memory of a goldfish with a concussion, forget why they’re staring at said basket.
Oh hey don't mind me i'm just hiding in a horde of enemies by wearing a hood that looks like them but it doesn't cover my face. Breath of the Wild logic my friends
The AI in TF2 is just horrible and inconsistent. Half of them act like complete noobs while the other half are on god mode. Its almost like you're playing against real people.
Your entry for Dishonored is a real-life stealth move. It relies on a phenomenon that very few people look beyond a 45° angle. It was popularized by Ninjas as a Jitsu. Batman was trained as a Ninja. The "zombies" in Evil Within Aren't real! (It was all in his head)
This nicely links into the 'Top 7 awfully useful body hiding spots in games' such as the hay in assassin's creed and the dumpster in dishonoured... And any body of water ever.
The roof thing a ninja jutsu, and it DOES work. People don't usually look higher than a 45 degree angle. You stay that high and don't make a sound and you don't get caught.
Defending Assassin'a Creed: I actually have used two hay bales in Hide and Seek. It was at a hay field at a family farm... But everyone else was hiding around them... I went in between two leaning together, and no one found me. It's uncomfortable to be in... but... I managed to scare the daylights out of everyone. It was great.
Every hiding spot in hello neighbour is ridiculous "Hey wanna hide under the tall legged bed?" "Hey do you want to hide in a cupboard with a broken door?" "Hey wanna hide behind that obvious door?"
Outlast is kinda like The Evil Within. You hide in lockers or under beds as well and get away with it! Literally the only time you were caught was by Eddie Gluskin in the DLC, and that’s only because followed you to a dead end. Smart bastard.
Dishonored, yes, but in particular under a table. Seriously, you can hide under the table in the High Overseer Campbell mission in the middle of the room.
You guys probably wont revisit this subject, but Payday 2 and being able to hide behind anything that blocks their eyes from seeing yours. So hiding behind a small, foldable chair? Invisible. Light pole? Perfect. It is so stupid, but it's so useful
To be fair, the Arkham series later included thugs who learn from your mistakes, spot you in vents and even gargoyles. Also, depends on the difficulty you play in too.
nothing as ridiculous as jumping into a closet and suddenly the enemy had no idea where you went.... even though they just saw you do it. WOW!!!!! amnesia is magic!!!!
Hold a prop next to a G-Man in Psychonauts during the Milkman Conspiracy. Provided it's the same prop as that G-Man, they'll never suspect that the short human child in aviator gear isn't one of their robot detective brethren. Or possibly a grieving widow.
Actually in Dishonored 2 if you do stay in one spot for too long, even if its on a chandelier on the ceiling, the enemy can still see you even if you don't do anything.
ok the hole hiding on the roof part, lets be real here, if youre a guard or a police oficer, or anything like that and youre just patroling, why would you look up, you would logicaly think "no noone could stand on that post, let alone climb it" or "na, imposible for someone to get on top of that roof" but then again, in the real world people dont have those powers, just like the characters of Until Dawn said when Jessica and Mike where talking about a bear, being able to open car doors, and when they said the exact words probably this characters think on this games "well this is not the internet (or a videogame or movie or book) ok this is real life" people always forgeting this detail.
What about hello neighbour? That game you can hide from a guy who tracks all of your movements and literally places down security cameras for the sole person of catching you by sitting in a cupboard
Thief hiding areas were a joke. What were the developers thinking? 'Ah! A locker just their size in the general vicinity of where they've been making noise! They'll never check there!'
How about in skyrim where you can literally hide right in front of them, as long as you sneak ( and have the appropriate sneak skill) you can basically walk right in front of their faces without them ever knowing you were there. Must`ve been the wind
Hi! Huge fan of the channel. A suggestion for a list: dumbest characters in video games. When I mean dumb, I mean they are so dumb it took them a day to cook instant noodles.

Can we just take a second to remember that there's a perk for sneaking in Skyrim where you literally just crouch down to confuse the enemy. You crouch and they have to actually take time to find you again. Babies have more object permanence
What about the bushes in AC: black flag ; the bushes are like 3cm tall and the guards are like ._. and you can even hide dead bodies in them i think the guards in AC:4 are ancient predecessors to the guards in MGS
Alien: Isolation does _not_ let you get away with bas hiding spots. I once thought I gave the xenomorph the slip by hiding in a locker. I had to discover from Google searches that the xenomorph can indeed see me through the slots in the lockers if I don't cower properly.
Also, thank you, Luke, for giving the world "supercala-f*ck you all." I laughed so hard milk shot out my nose. Haven't had milk in weeks, though. Think I need to see a doctor.
I see all these comments about sneaking in Skyrim but the stealthiest thing I have done in Skyrim was chasing one of the chefs in Markarth for a Dark Brotherhood guest. I mean imagine this; a Bosmer elf wielding a gigantic Daedric axe with a blade the size of his chest is chasing down a chef past several Markarth guards, all while his target keeps screaming "I cannot best you!" at the top of his lungs. I somehow managed to catch up to this chef, slam this axe in his back and cut his spine clean in half, and then walk out of the Understone Keep without alerting even a single guard despite straight up committing murder in close proximity to the Jarl. And I wasn't even sneaking.
What about undertale? When you first meet papyrus, you hide behind a conveniently shaped lamp (it's actually named that) and from where papyrus is standing, your next to it, and he hasn't a fuck to give about you. The fallen child probably what their pants when papyrus looked directly at them, I would
"even if the box is moving when you're not looking at it like a Doctor Who villain" The Angels have the phone box. Now they're hiding in it. it's made of cardboard.
When you think about it, every hidding place in any infiltration game ever does the trick. Even standing behind a tree is an awful spot to conceal yourself.
When I was running from the chefs in Little Nightmares, I hid under the small table and even though he looked underneath the table, he couldn't find me when he was *OBVIOUSLY STARING AT ME-* (And he saw me go underneath)
Here is a hiding tip I know of, hide in plain site and not well hidden becuz people look in the harder spots first. Works in hide and seek every time, I have even hidden in a bunch of flower bushes and wasn't found first at all, I was found last. My buds tho have gotten use to meh ways of hiding so it is a bit easier for them to find me though. Just make sure you don't wear bright colours because the brain registers bright colours rlly well and you would be caught like a rose surrounded by dandelions.
I can totally see this working because in real life I once hid behind a couch and no one found me for an hour, despite being behind a couch, that is literaly the first place that any child would look, the teenagers and adults never found me I was 14 the youngest person there and I just wanted to be alone.
little miracle stations: bendy and the ink machine. when you go in, despite seeing you go in, they stop chasing you. Maybe they can't open it, but their made of wood!
Now, look, you can't expect too much from the bad guys in -Zelda- Rogue Legacy. One of them is literally just a skull on fire. ...What? It's the first thing that came to my mind.
In a closet or under the bed works perfectly fine in Hello Neighbor along with "closets" in BatIM and lockers for another horror game I can't remember the name of
In Hitman I think him hiding in tall grass is funny. You can see the top of his head…. And sometimes he isn’t even covered totally in grass and they walk right by
dishonored the rooftops are great if you havent been detected. why would the guards look up there if they arent being attacked from above and haven't seen anyone go to the roof. they dont know or understand what blink is. its also usually night time so itd be hard to see someone up there.
I was playing Gmod with my sister and brother (prop Hunt) I was a fucking lampost, yes a lampost, I couldn't stop laughing as the kept looking around me not knowing I was right in front of the as a lampost I spaced my self equal distance from the other lampost in a spot where the next one would have been plus the little space behind me made it more convincing (Before map update) After map update the space behind me was gone least to say my brother and sister always check there for a lampost It was hilarious at the moment and sometimes still is when I look back
Regarding the barrels, Sly is a good stealth series but Sly uses barrels for stealth, too. How dare you cite Dishonored! In defense of Dishonored, on higher difficulties their awareness is improved, to where they can spot players easier above them, so there are more fitting games that could have replaced it.
ninjas actually did walk along roofs to move about unnoticed. buildings were lit from inside and unless you were above the kitchen there was no way of light reaching the rooftops especially since the roof overlaps the walls in old japanese buildings making the light shine across rather than up. they didn't have lamp posts either in ancient japan so as long as you didn't draw the attention of a person with a lantern you could sneak around unnoticed. victorian thieves used to pull a clever trick where if they were being chased they would run into a room with an adjoining door and hide in the closet. the pursuer would assume they ran into the adjoining and follow. at that moment the thief would burst out of the closet and run out of the door giving them a head start in the chase. obviously after adjoining rooms went out of fashion so did this trick as it's very obvious where somebody went when there's literally no where else they could have gone. in world war 2 british soldiers escaping nazi prison camps would hide in piles of manure that were being transported from farm to farm by allied members of the french resistance. turns out that nazi privates were reluctant to search the manure even if they suspected a person might be hiding in it because of how gross it is. this method actually fooled the nazies for quite some time until a superior officer did the smart thing and picked up a pitch fork which is what would have been used to shovel the manure and started stabbing at the manure. this resulted in the deaths of several escapees via deadly infection. several small, flexible and underweight prisoners have escaped via air ducts to this date but a lot lot lot more have tried to do so and died in the process. restrictions of movement have lead to suffocation, some have climbed through unused parts of the facility and got stuck and died of thirst, some have severed arteries on mechanical fans and bled to death, one man climbed into a chimney by mistake and was choked by noxious gases but most have met a grizzly end when shafts went vertical and they slipped and fell several stories to a sudden stop. it certain not a good method of travel. so all these sneaking methods have some sort of truth to them. however the game developers might have used them out of context in completely unrealistic situations and the audience isn't stupid enough not to notice.
The rooftop maneuver may be logical and works well enough...how about explaining the "hiding *below* the eyeline" that was shown? Pretty sure that you'd notice a heavily-armed and darkly-armored person on a level that's only slightly below you even if you were paying more attention to your eye level...
Furko08 yeah that was a little weird..... They just showed a an empty red chair and the only thing I noticed were videos popping up for me to click on......... Nope!!!! Didn't notice anything else
The "hiding above someone" tactic is actually pretty realistic, because people tend to not look up when searching for things and prefer looking at eyesight level. That's why supermarkets put the most expensive stuff right at the hight of your head and the cheapest things at the bottom. Also: after seeing a SWAT-Team getting tricked out by a runnaway that put a thing over his head and stood still in a corner of a room, these hiding strategies are not too unrealustic anymore...
Wanted to say the same thing; unless you know the thing you're looking for has a tendency to climb things, people really don't look up all that often and even then, it's more of a conscious thing. I mean, in a brightly lit day, with a person standing tall and proud, skylining themselves, yeah, you _might_ see them even if you're not looking for them, but in a dark and foggy night when they're crouching and _actively_ trying to avoid being seen? Yeah, not really happening.
i heard about an officer in the Israeli army who, to prove a point that the trainees didn't check corners when breaching, stood in one during a live ammunition drill. They shat themselves when he got out of the building when it was done.
People all too often make fun of stealth in video games for being unrealistic, and while this is sometimes true such as in Skyrim, the being above eye level thing you just mentioned really does work, ninjas having done that for centuries. It actually becomes less effective however, the farther away from the seeker you are, as the farther away they are, the more high up they are able to see without looking up by more than a 45 degree angle.
Standing out in the open in the Elder Scrolls. Seriously. Sneak Level 100 is absolutely ridiculous to a hilarious degree. Add in some Dark Brotherhood gear or other sneak-enhancing items for even more hilarious "It must've been the wind" moments from the orc with an arrow in his head.
Artorias of the Abyss EXACTLY!! Whenever my sneak level is very high,I can kill a bandit with my arrow and hide. The other bandits around the dead body right in front of them just “I swear I heard something,” or “It must’ve been the wind.” They are all idiots.
I feel like Agent 47's entire existence is the perfect hiding place. I mean who would suspect that bald guy with the barcode tattoo on his head who is always around when people get murdered? Right? Right!
Nguyen Huu Vinh saying not to be a grammer Nazi doesn't make you any less of one. Also while normally disguise would be better this relates to the video better so in this case it's actually better
outlier 07 Did you make that run on sentence just to irritate me because I WILL NOT rise to the bait... Although, maybe a punctuation mark here and there not gonna kill you. But I will if you reply me with another run on sentence. Yup, totally not a grammar Nazi!

To be fair, if I was some low wage guard looking for a highly trained assassin/swordsman/batman then I probably would pretend I couldn't find them. Better to get shouted at by your boss then get murdered for doing your job.

How about literally anywhere in skyrim? With a sufficient sneak skill you can hide just about anywhere!
Sneak 100: sneaking mid-combat causes enemies to stop fighting and search for you.
Rogues and feral druids in World of Warcraft can do that too. Most enemies will be completely oblivious to their presence, even when looking right at them.
Or hide anywhere in Skyrim with a potion made from nirnroot and luna moth wings... two ingredients spectacularly easy to find at night.
Don't forget the most flawless hiding place: A simple wooden bucket. Placed over everyone else's head. No one can see you if no one can see!
You mean you have never just crouched in the middle of a conversation you don't want to be in
My personal favorites are in Bethesda RPG games where, if you have a high enough stealth skill, the best and most conspicuous hiding spot is right in front of them.

Speaking of boxes, in TF2 there's a taunt that the spy* can use to
Cover themselves in a box. This works more often than it should.
Yeah! Maybe because in such a fast-paced game people just filter out immobile objects, even those that weren't there five seconds ago?
The AI in TF2 is just horrible and inconsistent. Half of them act like complete noobs while the other half are on god mode. Its almost like you're playing against real people.
No, because the ones on the other team are always the gods. Also, the box just doesn't work on them. :(
It's because they either have a sense of honor and refuse to kill friendlies, or are too stupid and immature to notice.

In Skyrim, if your sneak skill is high enough, you can get away with any spot, as long as you aren’t sitting on someone’s face.
Actually the rooftops thing kinda makes sense. You’d be surprised how rarely people look up.
Here is a hiding tip I know of, hide in plain site and not well hidden becuz people look in the harder spots first. Works in hide and seek every time, I have even hidden in a bunch of flower bushes and wasn't found first at all, I was found last. My buds tho have gotten use to meh ways of hiding so it is a bit easier for them to find me though. Just make sure you don't wear bright colours because the brain registers bright colours rlly well and you would be caught like a rose surrounded by dandelions.
Dont forget How in Assassins Creed you hide bodies in tall grass but on the floor there is always the guards weapons lying around lol.
Guard: ight I’m tired ima take a quick nap in the hay
Assassin: aye I’m sleeping he-oh crap
Guard: oh mya womu o shindaru
Assassin: NONI
Alien isolation has some pretty bad hiding spots. Under a table hiding from an alien that has very good sense of smell.
I can totally see this working because in real life I once hid behind a couch and no one found me for an hour, despite being behind a couch, that is literaly the first place that any child would look, the teenagers and adults never found me I was 14 the youngest person there and I just wanted to be alone.
Excuse me? How dare you!? The cardboard box is the best hiding place of all time
little miracle stations: bendy and the ink machine. when you go in, despite seeing you go in, they stop chasing you. Maybe they can't open it, but their made of wood!
Now, look, you can't expect too much from the bad guys in -Zelda- Rogue Legacy.
One of them is literally just a skull on fire.
...What? It's the first thing that came to my mind.
Link in a Barrel, Sly Cooper did it in a Barrel of TNT. Get caught and you're going out with a bang.
In a closet or under the bed works perfectly fine in Hello Neighbor along with "closets" in BatIM and lockers for another horror game I can't remember the name of
While this video is old, I'm amazed the conveniently shaped lamp of Undertale wasn't mentioned.
Moblin: That barrel didn't move across the room at all.
Where's spooky's house of jumpscares? Where you're in the library you have to hide.
In Hitman I think him hiding in tall grass is funny. You can see the top of his head…. And sometimes he isn’t even covered totally in grass and they walk right by
You mentioned barrels but didn't mention the giant one in the yoga hideout?!
Hello Neighbor. It seems like the Neighbor just can’t find you sometimes.
Star Wars Episode iv: Storm Trooper checks the door and says this one’s locked, let’s move on to the next one and R2-D2 & C-3PO are safe.
the classic harry potter games, where stealth is hiding behind a shelf
dishonored the rooftops are great if you havent been detected. why would the guards look up there if they arent being attacked from above and haven't seen anyone go to the roof. they dont know or understand what blink is. its also usually night time so itd be hard to see someone up there.
1:41 he he good one
You forgot hello neighbor closets with obviously of Gap showing that you're in there
I was playing Gmod with my sister and brother (prop Hunt)
I was a fucking lampost, yes a lampost, I couldn't stop laughing as the kept looking around me not knowing I was right in front of the as a lampost
I spaced my self equal distance from the other lampost in a spot where the next one would have been plus the little space behind me made it more convincing
(Before map update)
After map update the space behind me was gone least to say my brother and sister always check there for a lampost
It was hilarious at the moment and sometimes still is when I look back
Regarding the barrels, Sly is a good stealth series but Sly uses barrels for stealth, too.
How dare you cite Dishonored! In defense of Dishonored, on higher difficulties their awareness is improved, to where they can spot players easier above them, so there are more fitting games that could have replaced it.
ninjas actually did walk along roofs to move about unnoticed. buildings were lit from inside and unless you were above the kitchen there was no way of light reaching the rooftops especially since the roof overlaps the walls in old japanese buildings making the light shine across rather than up. they didn't have lamp posts either in ancient japan so as long as you didn't draw the attention of a person with a lantern you could sneak around unnoticed.
victorian thieves used to pull a clever trick where if they were being chased they would run into a room with an adjoining door and hide in the closet. the pursuer would assume they ran into the adjoining and follow. at that moment the thief would burst out of the closet and run out of the door giving them a head start in the chase. obviously after adjoining rooms went out of fashion so did this trick as it's very obvious where somebody went when there's literally no where else they could have gone.
in world war 2 british soldiers escaping nazi prison camps would hide in piles of manure that were being transported from farm to farm by allied members of the french resistance. turns out that nazi privates were reluctant to search the manure even if they suspected a person might be hiding in it because of how gross it is. this method actually fooled the nazies for quite some time until a superior officer did the smart thing and picked up a pitch fork which is what would have been used to shovel the manure and started stabbing at the manure. this resulted in the deaths of several escapees via deadly infection.
several small, flexible and underweight prisoners have escaped via air ducts to this date but a lot lot lot more have tried to do so and died in the process. restrictions of movement have lead to suffocation, some have climbed through unused parts of the facility and got stuck and died of thirst, some have severed arteries on mechanical fans and bled to death, one man climbed into a chimney by mistake and was choked by noxious gases but most have met a grizzly end when shafts went vertical and they slipped and fell several stories to a sudden stop. it certain not a good method of travel.
so all these sneaking methods have some sort of truth to them. however the game developers might have used them out of context in completely unrealistic situations and the audience isn't stupid enough not to notice.
Underrated comment
Criminally underrated comment, agreed.
When searching, most people don't look above a 45 degree angle.

The rooftop maneuver may be logical and works well enough...how about explaining the "hiding *below* the eyeline" that was shown? Pretty sure that you'd notice a heavily-armed and darkly-armored person on a level that's only slightly below you even if you were paying more attention to your eye level...
Wardrobes are terrible places to hide . Last time I tried that I ended up lost in the snow with a goatman
Rodney Carr FOR NARNIA
Rodney Carr krampus you mean
WELCOME TO NARNIA
Well, at least none of the other players thought to check in narnia
Narnia !
Is Ellen really talking to herself in the outro?
Furko08 yeah that was a little weird..... They just showed a an empty red chair and the only thing I noticed were videos popping up for me to click on......... Nope!!!! Didn't notice anything else
also heard a balloon or something at the end as well
a clean spicy rat?
musicaddictor no orcs here, sorry
You think maybe somebody should check on Luke? Haven’t seen him around since that game of Hide-and-Seek a few days ago.
The "hiding above someone" tactic is actually pretty realistic, because people tend to not look up when searching for things and prefer looking at eyesight level.
That's why supermarkets put the most expensive stuff right at the hight of your head and the cheapest things at the bottom.
Also: after seeing a SWAT-Team getting tricked out by a runnaway that put a thing over his head and stood still in a corner of a room, these hiding strategies are not too unrealustic anymore...
Ryan Schork Can I has video sauce for the SWAT? :-D
FishyNiden Here you go:

Wanted to say the same thing; unless you know the thing you're looking for has a tendency to climb things, people really don't look up all that often and even then, it's more of a conscious thing. I mean, in a brightly lit day, with a person standing tall and proud, skylining themselves, yeah, you _might_ see them even if you're not looking for them, but in a dark and foggy night when they're crouching and _actively_ trying to avoid being seen? Yeah, not really happening.
i heard about an officer in the Israeli army who, to prove a point that the trainees didn't check corners when breaching, stood in one during a live ammunition drill. They shat themselves when he got out of the building when it was done.
People all too often make fun of stealth in video games for being unrealistic, and while this is sometimes true such as in Skyrim, the being above eye level thing you just mentioned really does work, ninjas having done that for centuries. It actually becomes less effective however, the farther away from the seeker you are, as the farther away they are, the more high up they are able to see without looking up by more than a 45 degree angle.
No mention of assassin's creed's blooming benches. Just try to escape the police by sitting down on a bench irl. I dare you!
*while also wearing some ridiculous hood and a pile of weapons (crossbow, dagger, sword, etc.)
Defector from Decadence but what you didn't Know was the police was the bench PLOT TWIST
I was just thinking the same thing! He is right there! There is a point where you have to ask yourself how blind or stupid guards at AC Italy can be!
“He looks like him, but he’s not running from us. Can’t be him.”
Kaahno it's like assassin's creed and hitman combined!
Standing out in the open in the Elder Scrolls.
Seriously. Sneak Level 100 is absolutely ridiculous to a hilarious degree. Add in some Dark Brotherhood gear or other sneak-enhancing items for even more hilarious "It must've been the wind" moments from the orc with an arrow in his head.
Artorias of the Abyss guard: hey some dude in front of me shot me
Must have been the wind
Artorias of the Abyss EXACTLY!! Whenever my sneak level is very high,I can kill a bandit with my arrow and hide. The other bandits around the dead body right in front of them just “I swear I heard something,” or “It must’ve been the wind.” They are all idiots.
In Oblivion, Chameleon 20% enchanted on everything gives 100% total invisibility and actions or combat won't knock you out of it.
Or sticking a basket over a shopkeepers head and then rob them blind
Holy Smokes they patched that in Skyrim so they don't stop their sightline
I feel like Agent 47's entire existence is the perfect hiding place. I mean who would suspect that bald guy with the barcode tattoo on his head who is always around when people get murdered? Right? Right!
Caitlin RC well you arent wrong there.
Especially when Mike's controlling him. Although at that point he's not really bothered about hiding.
Not to be a total grammar Nazi but isn't what you described technically call a disguise and not a hiding place?
Nguyen Huu Vinh saying not to be a grammer Nazi doesn't make you any less of one. Also while normally disguise would be better this relates to the video better so in this case it's actually better
outlier 07 Did you make that run on sentence just to irritate me because I WILL NOT rise to the bait... Although, maybe a punctuation mark here and there not gonna kill you. But I will if you reply me with another run on sentence. Yup, totally not a grammar Nazi!
