"Was This Always Here?" The Game

Looking at chat is like looking at early machine learning Tons of different guesses with no rhyme, reason, or validity Until suddenly one thing spikes and all the answers immediately flock to it like the seagulls from Finding Nemo

My favorite thing about Insym playing a variety of games is that the community starts cross using the terminology with other games. Like in today's stream - Insym made a bug report about the smudge sticks and Twitch chat was like, "ANOMALY REPORT!"

TIMESTAMP FOR ALL JUMPSCARES Note: im only putting the major events and not the subtle ones bc theyre not that scary.. Also reading this will definitely spoil your scary YT experience, so be warned.. I warned you! Oh you're really going to spoil yourself? Ok you asked for it..

I just always find myself thinking: "Why are all the intruders mostly naked?"

I am a MASSIVE fan of Phasmo, and I don't see myself getting sick of it anytime soon. That being said, watching you do new scary games is a great change of pace. It keeps things a little more fresh, and you do a wonderful job of engaging with the community and viewership, and making these games super interesting to watch. Keep up the great work, Insym. :)

I never thought I’d be sitting through more than 3 hours of vods watching a guy and a few hundred other people go crazy trying to find differences in rooms and being jump scared by expanding black holes haha

Imagine that there's a cleanup crew on standby for every time insym finds an abnormally. Like, "Oookay you non pg intruders, he caught you. Time to escort you away."

I will never understand how people who play horror games for a living get any sleep at night lmao

When a random naked lady starts hanging on the ceiling, that's a sign to leave the place.

20:11 *Abyss proceeds to swallow the kitchen* Insym: Extra abyss? Me: *D O O R O P E N I N G*

I’ve been so god dam excited for this game,the last one actually terrifyed me in a not cheep but good scare way, it even made me paranoid about a black floating mass is just fun a be around a corner or a abyss when I was getting ready for bed late at night

The "2nd cam" mechanic is actually a super cool innovation on the sit and survive game formula, and opens up lots of new possibilities

lmao, not even 10 seconds in and I'm already loving it. Your gasp during the intro was great. @36:10 in the kitchen you can see a door open for a brief second, which is the same door that opens in the hall you see later.

Thanks for playing, I bought the games as well to support the dev. This stuff is such a great idea and has huge potential

I like the stark differences between these two houses, because you can clearly tell that the first family has a lot of money based on their house, and numerous HD full color cameras. Second house looks like a broke college student that can only afford shitty 144p cameras lol. I think the first game is my favorite so far, the black and white does something for atmosphere, and it's easier to find things based off of the values of each scene. Color gets too distracting

I love how eerie this game is, the fact that something is always.. off, yet you’re failing to notice it.

49:13 This scared the shiet out of me lmao

I'm so glad you played the second one!! these are so entertaining. You're one of the few youtubers that I will take the time to actually watch the video instead of just putting it on in the background :D

8:37 A black orb appears on the left side, but the face appearing makes everyone miss it xD

this is my absolute favorite series of games for this year. its so much fun to rewatch videos like this to see which anomalies you missed when you didnt have them memorized. also to race the chat to see who notices something first.

I expected something WAAAAY worse after the edit of "You dont want to see this" but for KZfaq's sake, appropriate thing to cover LOL

Object shrinkage: The water was cold, Jerry!

He gets scared so rarely in phas its odd to see him legit freak out. Still love em though.

49:05 "Bathroom door is closed" Famous last words

This game franchise is definitely going places and Insym's playthroughs will catalyze its recognition! Very entertaining! 😁

God I was so distracted by how stunning the house was that I totally forgot to be looking for anomalies

I see censoring at 10:00 and I was like "NAKED MAN MUST BE HERE!" ^^

28:47 solid snakes trying to sneak into the house o_O

I believe the first 2 games actually based on a creepy pasta that's literally the same concept as the game itself- security guard is hired to monitor a house from the inside in a safe location, to which he is given very specific & many instructions that he must strictly follow every night. Each of these steps is vital to the security guard's survival, but you are not necessarily guaranteed to die if you miss a step, it just becomes a lot harder to survive. It's a very interesting creepy pasta for sure, I recommend checking it out if you liked the games because there's definitely a strong similarity even if they're not related.

Lots were excited for you to play this! Hope to see the next one real soon. Sadly I wasnt notified you were streaming this game.

oh man i'm loving these videos! you should play the third one and maybe investigate the secret the hints mentioned?

Anomaly Report: Intruder in the living room Report Pending Fixing Anomaly Me: May I know how you fixed that? Sure, we used the abyss on them and they became a disappeared object.

insym didnt see it at all because he was clicking through cams fast but at 18:09 there's an intruder on the ceiling in the study lmao he saw it a few seconds later but BOy that scared the shit out of me when he was scrolling through the first time

I just found your videos!! I've been waiting for years for someone to create some bingeworthy I'm on observation duty content, and you came through with just that! thank you!!

The black hole was simply a camera malfunction, imagine someone drilling a hole in the middle of the camera lens. Mystery solved

YES i've been waiting! I even hopped on stream today to ask you when the ep was going to get released. Btw, there are interactable things that you can click on (im still in the process of watching the video so if he ends up interacting with an object dont cancel me)

I have been binging so many of your videos lately, I hope I’m able to catch a stream one day but man I absolutely love your content. Keep up the great work!!

that was the best game intro ive ever seen. A bodiless head going "bah bah bah" with captions lmao

To summarize, this game will make your remembering ability much better but it'll get you paranoid

34:33 thats the chair for the big guy that killed you in observation duty 1

i actually appreciate that he quickly switches cameras when there are intruders/ghosts/corpses bec my heart just can't take it if they're on screen for so long lmao 49:12 that genuine fear lmao i'd react the same way too though

Yesss! I loved your video on the first game! Keep up the awesome content Insym!

Cool, something I can watch before I sleep.

I think imsym's reactions scare me more than the actual game. I love it lmao

I feel like the first game is much more creepier with both the events and visuals

I think the black and white or older style works better, feels like it adds to the realism more and the fear more, hope they bring back the abyss and distortion and add more in the third, and more maps and many longer time

Yassss I was waiting for this!! Love the idea of these games haha

Insym: I'm so excited to have a second cam! Also Insym: The second camera mechanic is a little bit.....dumb

I would love to see a person who has photographic memory play this game

Yes I was waiting for this!! Love your vids insym!!

3 hours and a half scheduled for the night Keep bringing the content! I'm bringing the popcorn 😎

You’re literally my favourite streamer man, you’re so chill and no toxicity and most of the time just funny and wholesome.

i honestly want an extra cam report, like you're scrolling through the cameras and there's suddenly a camera for a room that wasn't there but for that, we'd need an "other" camera option

YESS ive been waiting for you to do number 2!!! its so scary but entertaining

Insym this made me SO happy to see this game is a blast to watch!!! Only sad I didn’t get to catch the stream

I was having a terrible night, but this cheered me up so much. Thank you!

That's weird. I just got home from work, opened KZfaq, and the EXACT video I was wishing for was at the top of the page. Is this channel actually magic?

More observation duty!! Wooo. Always loving the vids

Only the real chads noticed that the vase was twitching in the living room when Insym thought there was a ghost face there

As soon as you got rid of the teeth on the wall in the bathroom, during the 1st run, the door was opened. I was screaming at my screen because you weren't noticing it.

“Oh I can’t use second cam” Me: Camera malfunction! I’ll ignore it. Me: …sigh

Yes! I've been waiting for this! Great video

I know the game can get somewhat repetitive but I love watching you play this and the way you interact with your viewers. Looking forward to more eps :p

I can't wait until the third game! These games are so simple yet so fun to me!

this seems like a pretty fun game that's perfect for streaming because chat can play along

I love these games where we can play along with ya. It's a fun time, keep it up! And congrats on the silver!

It's a delight to watch you play these

Insym: *Provides awesome quality spooky content* Me: "Hehehe dooty"

I love that this game is able to be so scary without using too many jump scares

This is so much entertaining and a great time killer. Thank you Insym!

I bought all three of these as soon as I watched your first video on this. This game is just TOO much fun!

love how he clicks off the kitchen as the door opens and then is like DID YA HEAR THAT?!? yeah i friggin saw it lol

Dude, I love watching your shit. Obv you're the go-to for phasmo, but I just watched your "locked in (up? In? Up? ... Whichever...)" again today, just cuz you're so entertaining... All that to say, keep doing what the insym do. It's great.

Finally here! i'm glad you have upload a new game of this franchise! Greetings from Argentina! :D

we are going down a rabit hole that im loving, this little series is going to be awesome.

I was so hyped when i saw your video in my recommended videos after so long. I kinda forgot your name on KZfaq i am so freaking happy rn

Hell yeah, more observation duty!

I recently found this channel and I gotta say, you're freaking awesome man.

I’m gonna be honest, I don’t like this game as much as I liked the first one. I personally don’t like the shift to color; not because it diminishes any of the spooky factor for me, but because with color it almost seems like there’s too much going on. It may just be a me thing, but I find the shift to color makes it hard to play the game. And that camera filter on the second map is really beyond god awful. I can barely watch the video, let alone actually play it. It’s really shitty for accessibility too

The SPEED of my mouse when I caught a glimpse of the title-

The 'abyss' thing is an intruder. If you stop to watch the full animation, a person appears in the middle of it. :)

I love his twitch chat always so wholesome also btw HI TWITCH

Ngl, your commentary is like really good, so is your humor!

I absolutely love this game and your reaction to playing it! It's perfect and really fun to watch. :D

I hate the feeling of being scared but absolutely love horror stuff idk whats wrong with me but ima just binge this new playlist now

Real talk the white-film grain of the second level - I couldn't do it man, it was too much. I wish they had an option to at least remove the white overlay interruptions from the grainy textures. I have a headache now, but hell man, I'm glad you're having fun. It's fun watching you do it.

loved watching the stream for this, it was amazing

18:34 😂 his face

Aw hell yeah! I’ve been so excited for this!!!

You're a very entertaining youtuber to watch. Always positive vibes from you men!

"Oh this is new! Huh?! Hmmm...." Lol had me laughing. Insym you have great content.

i also think the 2nd map is like your observing through like a fucking VHS tape or one of those really old REALLY HEAVY TVs where the quality was kinda shit its like it went from like the kind of graphics from like i dont know 2016-2018 to 1978-1999

I can't help but see just how many comments insym has liked. It shows just how much he cares and interacts with his community

This game seems to be pretty fun and odd- it was a nice video different which is always nice thanks insym

Everytime Insym gets scared he gets startled like a child getting jumpscared by their dad it's funny 😂😂

I spotted another anomaly. Earlier, the button below the video was red and it said "SUBSCRIBE." Now it's grey and it says "SUBSCRIBED."

Imagine if someone breaks into your house just to use the toilet! XD

5:10 is what the mobile version looks like in game one but dark and grainy so it’s VERY easy to miss all the small things hopefully tho they update it to add some light to the situation lmfao but thanks again for finding a fun game to play my friend and I challenge eachother to see who goes the longest or survives the night

Always loving these types of games and just seeing your reaction is fun
