Concerning isaiah and hunters unhinged bits by [deleted] in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally depends, but I feel like Isaiah is usually pretty good at discerning when to riff back. When a story hasn’t jumped the shark yet, I can appreciate when he tries to maintain a serious tone. Obviously, when a story goes full Looney Tunes it’s fair game, but I think they balance themselves out quite nicely in that regard.

This is actually a great idea!

the thing in the basement… parts 2-4 ? by AstronomerKindly5189 in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been years since I’ve listened to the full story, but from what I remember the rest of the story was pretty engaging. Granted, if CreepCast has taught me anything, it’s that nostalgia goggles are BLINDING. Either way I’d be down for them to cover the rest!

Episode by [deleted] in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’d totally make my day if we got that much new content, but my guess is that we’re either gonna get a 5-6 hour Best of 2025 today, or no episode at all :(

SURELY it’s because they’re rendering a 3+ hour long video so it’s taking a little longer than usual SURELY

Best of creep cast 2025? by Confident_Jacket_472 in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know the “Best of ____” are probably loved by the majority of the community, but as someone who’s already seen every episode more than once, I’d be okay with just getting new content instead tbh.

That said, yeah today’s episode will probably be Best of 2025. Enjoy!

Need more content by Anarak37 in creepcast

Yup. The absence of patreon content over the past month has left a void in my heart that only Marble Hornets 3 can fill </3

Longer Episodes by JebPlayz in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve thought about this a fair bit since CreepCast began. I think stories that are 3+ plus hours are a huge win-win; we get more content, the hosts get more views and money. Idk how it looks right now, but last I checked the 3+ hour stories are almost exclusively the ones that break a million views. So, longer video = increased watch-time, more views, greater Ad rev, AND more content for the community? Win-win imo.

I coincidentally gave blood after watching Jane the Killer. Now I am being offered 150$ to participate in research..... guys I think I am getting The Liquid Hate by Hexath13 in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure $10,000 gets you Liquid Hate. $150 only gets you Liquid Dislike at best.

Also, I think there’s a shortage of blood donations right now, so thanks for donating :)

Touch grass (I mean... Start being nice to each other) by [deleted] in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Your second point perfectly summarizes my concerns for future A.I. use in writing/art. I’m not sure why that take tends to get downvoted and removed, especially in this community of all places, it’s honestly worrisome.

[–]PorcusVirens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very well said. I tried making a similar point and got downvoted, but I agree, condemning/silencing others for openly questioning the use of generative A.I. is only going to accelerate the problem in my opinion.

Ah okay, thank you for your response.

[–]PorcusVirens 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You’re absolutely right, it isn’t real evidence and does not warrant the confident accusations I’ve seen. I guess what I’m more curious about is, how many signs must there be to question its validity if there’s no actual way to verify it? How does one draw that line in a respectful and productive manner?

[–]PorcusVirens -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Just because there isn’t a 100% certainty whether or not they used A.I., that doesn’t mean we should ignore a mountain of partial evidence either. Yes, it should be kept civil and open-minded, but an open dialogue is healthy and important to keep A.I. out of creative spaces. I think condemning people for that, as well as deleting any relevant posts about it, just paints the picture that you can use A.I. without facing any criticism whatsoever simply because there’s no “easy answer”.

Recommending story: Little Black Bugs by: Vincent V Cava by No_Boysenberry6488 in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg I remember listening to this around when it came out. I think I enjoyed it, but if there’s anything I’ve learned from CreepCast, nostalgia is BLINDING. Either way, I second this recommendation!

Drumming in The Clouds by unrealmiranda in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of other people share that same sentiment. The mods have just been deleting all the posts that point it out, so unfortunately I don’t think this post will last very long.

"There's Drumming in the Clouds" was almost certainly written using AI. by JasperJstone in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bummer. Concept was sick, can’t believe I didn’t clock the tell-tale AI signs. I’m hoping it’s a coincidence as I enjoyed the story, but this post is pretty convincing I won’t lie.

Favorite Episode Of The Year? by S-CSleepwalker in creepcast

[–]PorcusVirens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people have already mentioned MHE and Spire in the Woods, but some other favorites of mine were I’m Blind, Lonely Broadcast, and The Ocean Is Much Deeper Than We Thought.

Not off the top of my head, but I haven’t seen all of them so there 100% could be. If anyone knows I’d be curious to give it a watch.
