Every time I loaded up SA I would immediately bolt out the door with my eyes closed and I would never save the game at night. Shit haunted me.

Holy shit, me too. Fuck. The PTSD rivals Monster Ock for me.

Because you were too underage to realize Youtube was beyond shit back then.

Why was San Andreas such a hot spot for /x/ fags? the fucking game didnt had anything paranormal in the first place
Ayden Wood
Just like real life
James Murphy
This is a pretty good question. Maybe it's because of it's grand scope and ambition for the time. The only games that have been doing cool Easter egg shit after SA, aside from other GTA stuff that you can probably Google to find since I'm not that familiar with those Easter eggs, were Bungie's Halo games.

Exactly. If it did have bigfoot or aliens in there it would have been corny and stupid. There was a legit mystery there just like in real life, people wanted to believe.

it had all the cool spots for paranormal shit like a forest with a cabin, a big ass lake, a dessert and the Area 69
Oliver Lewis
because it had locations suitable for such myths, such as woodlands with abandoned cabins and desert areas with no population or traffic.
add to the mix some potentially /x/-worthy stuff such as graves in the desert, the "ghost cars" in back o' beyond, the photographer who commits suicide, the UFO references, etc.

What went wrong?
Sebastian Howard
I was actually thinking about it. If you start a thread, post it and I'll bump.
I mean it's hard to replicate the same experience but there's got to be more factors.

I miss when let's plays were just walkthroughs to help you get through certain parts and find easter eggs.
When did let's play even start to be a big thing? Pewdiepie started it right?
Camden Thomas
we have this thread every fucking day, what the fuck op, give it some rest at least
Cameron Perry
Yeah, PewDiePie started it along with a few others.
Aaron Gutierrez
Who else? I only remember pewdiepie being popular and then Markiplier following along about 2 years after.
Jace Brooks
Those somethingawful guys started it. The only others I can think of are HellfireComms in 2008 but they didn't always fucking scream or anything.
Jaxon Evans
well good news is the lets play meme is dying, but the bad news is it's being replaced by filthy frank/idubbz/h3h3 wannabes.
Jaxon Lewis
Post ironic humour has been killing the internet over the last five years.
Jeremiah Bennett
Kids discovered youtube and realized they can just be lazy and let someone else play the videogames for them. Also they have 0 creativity so they probably wouldnt enjoy any game even if they played one

The effort to make a video game clip for Youtube was also substantially higher back then so only those who really gave a shit about games would put in the work. Since it is now braindead easy to run OBS and basic streaming control is even baked into both relevant consoles---it's just a cash grab for attention starved women and the "LOLXDRANDUM ATHEIST" set.
