That said, DarkHarvest apparently not starting as a Slenderseries but the internet assuming it was so the creators ran with it and added him is kind of hilarious.

It is nice to see DH get its flowers.

It is wild to think that it still hasn't concluded though.

I mean I guess I had less to say about this one because it's telling a story as old as time about any kind of art movement.

Still fascinating, still amused at how some of the people explain things. Tim's "there were a lot of genders changing" kind of bewilderment cracked me up.

I love everyone trying to be gentle about how weird and sometimes cliquish the creator community was and then Evan like "I met some people I'm still friends with, and I've met some people that if I read 'em in the newspaper tomorrow, I'd be like 'good'!"

The crossover clusterfuck happening because they had a big dumb meetup at Medieval Times is again comedy gold.

I do think it's interesting that they briefly touch on that there's a Stan Frederick episode that's a little on the infamous side but they don't talk about why because it is actually kind of interesting that it provoked a reaction.

There's an episode, "Neighbors" that actually has the main character talk to a lot of characters from series that had hit a hiatus or been cancelled without completing because out of series the creators often talked and they wanted to offer some closure for these.

But this actually pissed off a lot of people who had adopted a rule when consuming slenderverse stuff that if a series just sort of fell off they assumed that meant the characters had got got.

So having a bunch of older series go "dude no I'm fine I realized if I stopped filming he couldn't find me" actually ruined the kind of grimdark view of how the implied shared setting worked.

Which I don't know. That's fascinating. There's one blog from like 2010 that implies that you can't get away from the big tall dude, and despite unreliable narrators being a foundational, cornerstone piece of the shared setting, people pointed at that and claimed this other series was like... wrong. Noncanon in a not-really-a-canon, somehow.
