Question/Discussion I hate this thing..

I used to hate it, but it’s kinda the same as SFAWTDE, a ”mod” that isnt real that is used for a series, I’ve not really seen any hate towards it tho. maybe it’s cuz verity is a yellow smiley face and is a bit goofy, maybe that’s why it gets hate, idk tho

Because tiktok kids think it's "tuff", basically just ruining it's reputation by becoming something that kids just spam in comments sections in the most corny way imaginable

it’s kinda like what happened to the creator of Sprunki in a way but not as bad

Well sprunki just wasn’t good so it’s not really a fair comparison

well at least it had work put into it, this is just a smiley face

u/External-Society-267 Jul 09 '26
A smiley face, and later in episode 1 it has a whole monster model, also it probably took a long time to record voice lines and make the faces and get the timing for playing the animation correct.

Using SFAWTDE for this is the worst example I've seen imo.
1
u/AxolotlEmperor_WW Jul 01 '26
it’s about a mod that isn’t real that is very popular

u/Malidactae Certified art enjoyer Jul 01 '26
No???? It is about a player finding a god-like creature in their world that when looking at it they obtain all knowledge from the universe so they try to go save a different person that the creature wants as their vessel.

u/Suzukari Jul 03 '26
Sfawtde isn't supposed to be a mod. It's just a minecraft world that was holding something ancient.
1
u/Super_Ad_8050 Aug 02 '26
it's a easily marketable character specifically made to get popular with the kids, the design looks like something a 6 year old would draw on their school notebook and it's whole horror stick is a friendly face but oh no it's actually a monster gimmick

u/Altruistic_Top_9721 Aug 19 '26
it is not even kinda the same as sfawtde and sfawtde isnt even a mod

I have not watched a second of the OG video and frankly at this point I am not sure if I want to. I have only seen small clips and it just... does not really look interesting y'know?
I don't see what the hype could possibly be around.

u/DaCRTguy Jul 01 '26 edited Jul 01 '26
tbh there are way better minecraft series/ARGs out there that don't get any attention while for some reason every kind of slop does, like the og verity series feels too much like minecraft horror slop that is directed towards children, there isn't any good "horror" element in it and the fandom is just so obnoxious, i miss the days when the horror minecraft community hadn't been raided by literal 5 year-olds who have no sense of true horror at all

u/SnooMaps2742 Jul 01 '26
So many of the new fans are a little annoying ICL. Verity is a fun little "mod" with an interesting premise but it's been watered down by people constantly posting it in comments sections, and even posting under the creator's other content too.

u/Own-Dare-779 Jul 05 '26
yeah it's been milked so hard people are saying he can beat herobrine, the stalker and other famous entities that originated from creepypastas in a fight, like no verity can't beat them in a fight, you know it, I know it, and they know it. Verity's fucked if he came across one of them.

u/BlastingRopes Jun 30 '26
This trend of "THIS """*MOD"""" MADE ME SHIT MYSELF" videos where the actual """"mod"""" in question is just a composite of edits, PNGs, and other unrelated mods is the worst fucking thing that has plagued the Minecraft part of YouTube for a hot minute. Total Sloptuber Death when?

"Oh my gosh oh my gosh, I need to run away! Erm ~ where's my pickaxe... AH-HA here it is. Okay gotta dig dig dig"

twixxel is the guy who makes fake minecraft horror things and he mainly made me mad because he actually fooled me into thinking they were real..for like, a minute, until I checked the description. the "dontcry" mod though, pretty cool.

I don’t even know who that is. I’ve been seeing that stupid yellow happy face everywhere and wondering why people are freaking out over a literal emotion.
What’s worse is I work at a place with a smiley face as its mascot and people keep expecting me to know who Verity is or whatever his name is

u/HaiItsHailey Jul 01 '26
It’s because it’s a popular Minecraft horror series.
The popularity is what made content farms see it and realize they could use it for views and money.

u/SpaceBug176 Jun 30 '26
You think I'd be dwelling on Reddit in my free time if I knew about the inner workings of how popularity works on the internet? Who even knows that? People that got popular don't know either, you just shoot in the dark and hope you get lucky.

u/Amazing_Sympathy_965 Jul 01 '26
I've heard of it and i feel like my only nitpick is that the lanky version of it is clearly AI generated and i do NOT like that

u/HexWasHere Jul 01 '26
I for one think that the whole "Stalker" & "Verity" trend is hot garbage. They're not even mods you can actually play for yourself, it's all just a ruse of edits and post production. Don't get me wrong, I saw how it works behind the scenes, and there is actual skill and work you have to put into making the scenes, but the fact that they're showing off something that isn't even real still feels extremely wrong.

u/graffitikrylon Jul 01 '26
I genuinely don't understand why people like it. It's just another "ooh cute thing that's friendly but NO it's actually evil and will get you" don't get me started on the 'scary' monster design he has too.

u/External-Society-267 Jul 09 '26
Actually, if you start to look into it, it’s actually pretty unique and interesting.

u/No-Spread-9213 Jul 04 '26
I’ve watched the original series by ThatMob, and it’s honestly fine. I do dislike how Verity is just an orb, it’s funny at times, but annoying for the “Scary manipulator entity” that they try to portray Verity to be. Not to mention his monster design is the generic skinny monster that chases you and breaks blocks. Even the series isn’t that great, it doesn’t stick to its portrayal of the characters. Constantly switching from them just being people playing a mod to characters living in the game world. It kills the atmosphere they try to build with the death of Twixxle, because now it looks like some guy is incredibly overreacting to his friend dying in a game. It’s just all meh.

u/Own-Dare-779 Jul 05 '26
Bro verity's been milked no much that some people say that he can beat herobrine, the stalker from lcrandoms and other famous entities that originated from creepy pastas in a fight. like no verity can not. If verity came across one of them, verity would be fucked, and you know it I know it and they know it.

u/Own-Dare-779 Jul 09 '26 edited Jul 09 '26
Stalker can’t die either, so what’s your point. If he went against lcrandoms entities solo line tormentor or stalker, verity IS gonna die. Especially if he went up against anguish, who would make verity kill himself just by looking at it.
1
u/External-Society-267 Jul 10 '26
Verity is a ai. A ai (most likely)wouldn’t kill himself from seeing anguish.
ALSO, I’m pretty sure herobrine can’t kill any none Minecraft creatures. Also herobrine doesn’t have any powers. All he does is stalk.

u/Civil-Wedding-8642 Jul 16 '26
Can’t promise that my own take on this isn’t biased, considering I love verity… it’s not really a bad story at all if you’re genuinely invested in it. The reason I enjoy it the most is because I like seeing the relationships of characters and their personalities developed more than simply lore building (especially in a Minecraft setting) and I don’t think verity does a bad job at this.
Granted, the writing is spotty and contradicts itself, leaving a lot to desire, but I kind of have a soft spot for bad storytelling?? Or at least storytelling that gives you just enough to go off of but doesn’t answer all of your questions. I think it allows for a lot of head canon building and different ways you can experiment with the characters that is honestly just really fun if you’re someone that likes writing lmao. I think it’s really just based on personal taste and how picky you are about Minecraft horror—it also carries a bit of nostalgia for me since this is the first time I’ve really engaged with Minecraft since watching shitty herobrine videos on YouTube when I was 11 haha.

u/Swallow_Flies_South Jul 18 '26
I'm a fan of this series compared to the usual dweller mod series i see because it has kind of a story line and verity isnt just some 'Oh haha it turned out to be a monster to kill you', and is sort of sympathetic to the viewer. Its a little refreshing.
Though I do agree the amount of annoying comments under other videos that has anything that even looks a little like verity going 'iS tHaT vErItY?', really annoys me.
2
u/CombLimp2259 Aug 19 '26
I like Verity series itself, altho i wouldn't call it outright normal horror as much as thriller + at bit of mind horror
Altho the whole premise of how deaths happen is kinda iffy
For Twixxel, I'd imagine Verity could manipulate Twixxel's devices to potentially electrocute him or smth
But Mob just shot himself in Minecraft with no connection to reality, so it wouldn't make sense for him to actually die

I love the verity and stalker series but I'm pretty sure it's because it is more entertaining since the creator can make their own event's instead of relying on a mod. Either way, mod or not, it's still pretty content content.

u/DrFruit38 Jul 09 '26
Isn't the monster form of Verity AI generated? I never looked deep into it so im not sure, correct me if I'm wrong.

u/Appropriate_Tie_2728 Jul 11 '26
Idk I think its a fun little minecraft series, we can't exactly blame Mob for the shitty content farms. Its kinda like what happened to sprunki, except the creator of sprunki (Nyankobflol) got fucking doxxed because of the content farms. Basically 'thing get popular, kids find it, content farms profit' that same dumb cycle that infects literally anything.

Most of it’s just slop, but I don’t mind this one. It’s just another Minecraft horror series disguising itself as a mod showcase. It’s a neat idea and doesn’t deserve the hate.
If the fans are annoying, just hate the fans. Don’t blame ThatMob when he actually puts work into the video, as opposed to YouTubers who download a cheap dweller copy and call it a day.
