It always annoyed me how normies immediately forgot the entire purpose of the Backrooms as a concept, and that's the understated existential implication that we're living in a simulation, if we can noclip out of reality into an out-of-bounds area as if the universe is programmed like a video-game. But no, instead, let's focus on le spooky monsters
I find those sorts of rooms to be really cozy.
>>736422527There was always a monster in the backrooms you fucking retard.
>>736422656>if
>>736422656I want you to point to where exactly in my post I implied there aren't any monsters in the Backrooms
>>736422527"we live in a simulation" isn't engaging for the general audience, whereas "big thing chases you" isnot saying it's good, just saying why it is the way it isyou're expecting pigs to choose one burger over an entire trough of slop
>>736422527>immediately forgot the entire purpose of the Backrooms as a concept, and that's the understated existential implication that we're living in a simulation, if we can noclip out of reality into an out-of-bounds area as if the universe is programmed like a video-game.That's just you projecting meaning on the original post.
>>736422834Yeah I guess so but I feel like you're a retard if you read the Backrooms as a concept and your first thought isn't immediately "wait, what do you mean 'noclip' out of reality? What the fuck?"
>>736422527There is no concept. It's literally just "there is no real reason you just arrive in this nightmare scenario". I fucking hate zoomers and their need to have some shitty forced lore.
>>736417595What happens in the Blackedrooms?
>>736422947>>736422834Are you retarded, the implications of you being able to just fall out of the world into some scrambled hellscape are endless
>>736422947Yeah I'm sure the author used the term "noclip" as opposed to simply saying "falling through the floor" for no reason. There's totally no wider connotation there
>>736423070Yeah, autistic retards using gamer lingo totally has some deeper meaning.
>Arguing over the deep philosophical implications of an /x/ postThis is like when people took the Q Clearance gag I did on /pol/ 10 years ago a bit too far.Sometimes the sea is the sea, the old man is an old man, and the sharks are all sharks.

>>736419231Tranny game
The Backrooms is a repository of memories related to places. Every time you recall a place in your mind from memory, whether from an idle though or a dream, it winds up physically somewhere in there. But every time you recall a place from memory, it also gets progressively more distorted by time and the general unreliability of one's own memories especially from a visual/spatial standpoint. More and more these progressively more distorted versions of places from your memories pile up into an increasingly incoherent and tangled mass of half remembered places.
>>736417595I-is that a…no…NO…AN EMPTY LIMINAL SPACE!? I’M LOSING MY FREAKING MIND AAIAEEEEEEEEE

>>736421575This happened to my cousin's uncle. He ran downstairs to take a shit, but he was so desperate that he did it at terminal velocity. Never heard from him again.
I'm with the backrooms having monsters if they're the sexy furry kind

>>736422527don't forget about the almond water, and the strange proclivity for feeling the need to merge it with SCP shit
>>736422527normalfags flatten everything into the few concepts they understand innately the chad vs virgin meme is a prime example of this
>>736422947Is it even possible to make the backrooms into a decent game without "le heckin spoopy monster chases you in random world"? I played this back in 1995, it's called ski free. The backrooms doesn't lend itself to a good game because, by nature, the world has to be infinite, but I've never seen an infinite game tackle this idea in an engaging way that wasn't contrived.I honestly like the poolrooms better as a setting that would be more interesting to explore, but again, you can't make it in to an interesting game. At best, you'd just make it a walking simulator that has no win state.
>>736425395A walking simulator isn't terrible but the developer really has to lean into everything else to make it interesting.
>>736417595wasn't this guy already a thing in /x/ long before mandela catalogue popularized it? were exactly does he comes from?
>>736425395They have liminal space games where there are no monsters and you walk around a weird empty world and as you can imagine the novelty wears off quickly
>>736425562people don't even know that slenderman and sirenhead have a verifiable point of origin and just assume they're unknown internet mythos.also the real world location of the original backrooms image is known, and today it is used as an RC race track course.
>>736425395A found footage-style game could potentially work if it was made in the style of a Supermassive game, though at that point it's probably just gonna be House of Leaves 0.5
>>736425614Yeah this is true, but I think this sort of thing may have already been solved. Look at Nipper maps in CSS for example, almost every room is unique and interesting to look at in some way. That being said, they're also fairly interactive and there's a lot more to them than just being 100% walking simulator.
>>736417929But there's multiple locations, I found one myself.
>>736425142>almond water??
>>736421575this is why I always make sure to play as the fat body characters, bigger collision box means less chance of noclipping
I watch (decent) analog horror on youtubeI will probably watch the Kane Pixels Backrooms movie.Cope & sneed
>>736426053Are there any good analog horrors made these days? I enjoyed Hollow Birds and Plushy's Playground is pretty interesting
The infinite library from The Library of Babel is the far superior setting.
>>736426010one version of backrooms lore, presumably written by a bunch of 13 year olds, has bottles of almond water being hidden around the floors acting as your source of healing or powerups or something
>>736426010Fanfiction-tier degradation of the setting so that some can imagine themselves surviving the backrooms.
>>736421575one time as a kid i was leaning over the side of an escalator and almost no clipped through the upper floor as the escalator pushed me into it
>>736426010Dude, the things zoomers have done to the backrooms. I tried watching a "Backroom Levels Explained" to see if I was missing out on something and that shit felt like stuff that would be rejected on nu-SCP
>>736421575rounded arches are dangerous
>>736417595But what about the BLACKEDrooms?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JP03CcZWaI4They should turn this into a movie
>>736419182I'm more of a side rooms kind of guy
Kinda crazy they just let that Youtube nigga direct the movie. Then again, he's probably most qualified person for it.
>>736426238Unfortunately the best ones are somewhat old or inactive at this point. >Kane Pixels, >Minerva Alliance>Gemini Home EntertainmentThere's The National Institute for Spectral Haptics with one video, by the Mystery Flesh Pit guy. He said he intends to pick this back up again at some point.A new decent one is The Glendale Archives, but it's really slow paced because the guy does a lot of monologues on his situation/mental health and it's mostly retrospect commentary with little tension or scares.There's a bunch of really good ones in Japanese but I don't have them on hand. They're mostly SCP-ish or EAS scenarios.
>>736426607Early SCP had very little editing because there weren't very many people contributing to it. It got popular with zoomies which caused them to start reviewing everything before allowing it, and since most of it was submitted by zoomies, most of it was garbage. Lil Zooms still wanted to contribute to some copypasta garbage, so they started creating their own backrooms lore. You'd think the backrooms were some vast world filled with monsters and magic when the reality was that it was always supposed to be as empty as possible.Little kids really shouldn't be on the internet, if not for their own safety, but for everyone else's sanity.
when i first saw a poolroom video i thought that "is this what they call asmr?" and only after reading the comments i realized that it was supposed to be horror, not comfortable relaxation
>>736425395Of course you can't make a good game out of it. The entire concept is that you're stuck in a mindnumbing endless maze where either something eats your face or you die of thirst in a few days.
>>736426307>>736426481>>736426607Ah.The second time I found myself in something like the backrooms (not lost but had a similar feeling), I kept on finding shiny fresh apples lying around. The back of my head told me they were supplies/power-ups left around to make sure those trapped don't starve.
>>736426843I forgot Eventide Media Center, that's also good

>>736421575you better hope the person playing your game is careful not to type in a cheat code
>>736426238tvtropes has a long list of works that you can browse but no idea which ones are good.
>>736421575>How exactly are you supposed to "be careful" to avoid noclipping out of reality?If you run into a wall maybe 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 times, there's a chance that your bodies atoms will align with the atoms in the wall and you'll pass right through it
>>736417595It was a fun shitpost on its own but it's incredibly cringe that they're making a movie out of it with some gen alpha kid director
>>736427249funny how even movies being made in the indie scene are STILL all just stealing ideas. I'm not even just taking inspiration from other things.

>>736423441They say demons come out of corners...
>>736427585Just the Hounds of Tindalos.
liminal spaces are comfy not scary
Backrooms just doesn't lend itself well to a game. You're either stuck doing a walking sim 'experience', or levels, video game logic and total Redditization of the setting in order to have anything resembling gameplayIt's basically impossible to reconcile the two, your game is either one or the other
>>736417843How did you enable cheats in life? I can't find the ~ key anywhere
>>736418771He could if he can prove he made the post. You own your posts.
>>736428078Did you disable your HUD overlay? You might need a pair of those meta glasses to reenable it
>>736422527i don't think it was only about a simulation, it was about you "noclip out of the reality" scenario and how you can't go back to your own World, nobody will help you, you will go insane there and die in a few days, it kinda dig into the powerlessness of mankind against the Universe>>736421575you can't, is like trying to avoid breathing
>>736428145Deer nigga is in Nara. And not just because Nara is the obvious place with free deer.Rightmost signs, the second from the top is 春日大社, a shrine there.

>>736417595My old professor would bring up liminal spaces a lot before the meme. I read one of his books recently and now it sounds like he's reviewing memes.
>>736427650Would Lovecraft have appreciated the Backrooms concept?
>>736429071That nigga probably doesn't even use the same device he used in 2019. I know I sure as hell don't use my 2019 device. The closest thing to "evidence" would be possessing the original image, but of course even then you can easily edit the info
>>736429172He liked Robert Chambers and Carcosa is basically a parallel of backrooms in some ways.
>>736429172The Dreams in the Witch House plays with the idea.
So are you guys gonna watch the Backrooms movie or not?

>>736427650I think Dreams in the Witch House had something about it

I wonder if clipping into the backrooms feels like when you "fall" from bed when you are about to sleep.
>>736423739Serious question, though I do not expect an intelligent answer on post-2015 4chan. How does Lucid Blocks have anything to do with your obsession with mentally ill men and mutilated genitalia? ?

>>736430010It's usually about the fanbase, not about the game itself. Dead by Daylight is considered a tranny game even though the game itself has nothing in there aside from one of the more hideous monsters being voiced by a tranny.

>>736422527>We're living in a simulationAnother round of worthless bullshit from the people who can't accept that thousands of us are going to have to die on the altar of liberty if we ever want to have a decent society again. There isn't going to be a reset, there isn't going to be an ACCELERATE moment, and there isn't going to be a simulation shutdown, an alien rescue, an AI overlord, or anything else that will save you from things getting continually worse until people are willing to die to change it so that other people can have the great life that they fought for. It will have to be done the good old-fashioned way.Its like a religion with you people, you just can't conceive of a world that you're not in, still passing judgement over whatever comes after, when the reality is that whomever builds what comes after this won't be there to see it, they will have almost certainly died fighting for it and many others besides. I guess this is the new way of coping for not having an afterlife now that everyone has secularized, or something.
>>736429726>>736429772>>736429854>>736429875You niggas are naive as fuck.Being le right-wing means she (and your Trump too) wants dark skinned slave labor, but wants to make the darkies living conditions as bad as possible, so they eventually leave.This means:>the rich love it cause get labour but dont have to emply natives (you, if America) and pay them (you, if America) high wages>right-wingers (yes, you) love it cause darkies have worse life (you do too, of course, but being right-wing means you will suffer, as long as darkies suffer worse)Same shit in all countries.
>>736430419>>736430442Backrooms? Video games?
>>736430635A pretty dry topic at this point.
>>736430419What the fuck are you talking about?
>>736430442To be entirely fair, that's still legitimate politics. Its not like we're allowed to vote on 'all non-whites out' as a policy here and that should be a legitimate thing that people are allowed to vote for. Since we can't, the best that we can hope for is that one political party or another takes up that stance and does what it can to make them leave or to deport them. But it is both right and reasonable to expect that the government you elected should defend your personal interests from other, foreign groups of people who do not have the same interests as you and your countrymen.

>>736422527Think about what that actually looks like in practice, though. If someone made a 1:1 recreation of that pure existential Backrooms experience, you'd load in, walk around the yellow walls for ten minutes, appreciate the classic 4chan pasta, and then never touch it again. The 'spooky monsters' might dilute the original philosophical concept, but without them, you're just left with an empty walking simulator.

There one really top tier video that somebody else made that shows archive footage of one of those mechanical bots cutting through one of the farthest walls and putting a camera through it before the wall seals back up around it. It shows the walls and rooms manifesting in empty space in the distance.
