  • Evolution of the Youtube Personas Related to Survival Horror Games
    Toniolo EVOLUTION OF THE YOUTUBE PERSONAS RELATED TO SURVIVAL HORROR GAMES FRANCESCO TONIOLO CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF MILAN ABSTRACT The indie survival horror game genre has given rise to some of the most famous game streamers on YouTube, especially titles likes Amnesia: The Dark Descent (Frictional Games 2010), Slender: The Eight Pages (Parsec Productions 2012), and Five Nights at Freddy’s (Scott Cawthon 2014). The games are strongly focused on horror tropes including jump scares and defenceless protagonists, which lend them to displays of overemphasised emotional reactions by YouTubers, who use them to build their online personas in a certain way. This paper retraces the evolution of the relationship between horror games and YouTube personas, with attention to in-game characters and gameplay mechanics on the one hand and the practices of prominent YouTube personas on the other. It will show how the horror game genre and related media, including “Let’s play” videos, animated fanvids, and “creepypasta” stories have influenced prominent YouTuber personas and resulted in some changes in the common processes of persona formation on the platform. KEY WORDS Survival Horror; Video Game; YouTube; Creepypasta; Fanvid; Let’s Play INTRODUCTION Marshall & Barbour (2015, p. 7) argue that “Game culture consciously moves the individual into a zone of production and constitution of public identity”. Similarly, scholars have studied – with different foci and levels of analysis – the relationships between gamers and avatars in digital worlds or in tabletop games by using the concept of “persona” (McMahan 2003; Waskul & Lust 2004; Isbister 2006; Frank 2012). Often, these scholars were concerned with online video games such as World of Warcraft (Filiciak 2003; Milik 2017) or famous video game icons like Lara Croft from the Tomb Raider series (McMahan 2008).

    STEAM 201 SOUND ADVICE FROM SUCCESSFUL STEAM DEVELOPERS “If you could share one very important tip for an up-and-coming PC game developer, what would it be?” “If you could make one change to the way you launched your game, knowing what you know now, what would you change?” Don’t assume anyone knows what they are talking about… Including me • You know your game best • Your community will be a unique group • You are a part of your community Do what is best for them • There is no “one size fits all” 1. BE HONEST WITH YOUR WORK 1. Be Honest with Your Work “Game design is a conversation with players about things you find interesting” “Passionate developers make a long lasting impact on their community” “Pick apart the shortcomings of your work, what needs to be worked on and where do you need to grow” Edmund McMillen – Binding of Isaac Rebirth, Super Meat Boy “Make the game for yourself. The biggest mistake I see people make is to target an audience they're not a part of, and don't understand - just because that's where all the popularity is right now.” Garry Newman – Garry’s Mod, Rust 1. Be Honest with Your Work “As a small developer you can’t afford to be the best at everything. Figure out what you do better than anyone else and hone in on that” Jeremy Stieglitz – ARK: Survival Evolved Dino-Riders © 1988 Marvel Productions / Turok – Dinosaur Hunter © 1997 Acclaim Entertainment / Dinotopia: A Land Apart From Time © 1992 James Gurney “Believe in yourself and have complete faith in your game.
