  1. @Insym I like what you do now in regard to videos. It is a good mixture of solo, team play, etc. I did find this video very helpful as I could not figure out how some of the mechanics worked and your explanations were spot on and easy to understand. Well done mister!

  2. Quick question: When you say that only 1 ghost picture counts; is that 1 pic per "mission", or 1 pic every time he appears (as he may appear multiple times in a single mission)?

  3. I tested smudge during a hunt it doesn’t switch target but make the ghost wonder around for 5 sec, if the other person is on the other side trolling that makes you think the ghost is switching target, but it is wondering and by the 5 sec over it pick the closest person to target if it’s not a banshee

  4. my prefered way to watch Phasmophobia is watching someone have fun, I don't care if you solo or run random groups, or with friends, as long as you are enjoying yourself I can enjoy myself. I'm weird that way.

  5. Stellar guide! It's insane how much misinformation and things that aren't properly explained are in this game. This guide is one of the best – learned a lot. Thanks for uploading and congrats on the success!

  6. I got an ouija board photo today while trying to get fingerprints photos on Ridgeview in utility room.
    Never got fingerprints photos btw… Weird bug, but it was a very shy oni in the end. Guess cuz I was alone.

  7. I'm the primary photo-taker in my Phasmo group, so I really appreciated this! I didn't know about the coding for the photo scores. I figured out that only ghost photo counts, but didn't know that dirty water is worth hardly anything if there isn't an objective. So I learned something new! A bit if feedback, though: this guide video might be better filmed offline, without the live audience to interrupt and distract. The information is great and helpful! I'm glad I found this because I want to get better at this game; we consistently get $30 for photos, but I've gotten $35 a few times. Never even knew $40 was possible! But right now I'm 22 minutes into this video and thinking "are the remaining 16 minutes going to be like this? Nearly half of this video is this guy pausing every few seconds to thank people for gifted subs. The title of this video says it's a photo guide and advanced tips. I don't care about his subs, I'm here to learn something." The video is 38 minutes long. I like long videos, generally! But half of this was "thank you for the 5 gifted subs! You guys are amazing!" and I find myself thinking "oh my god, get on with it. This is good stuff, but please stop interrupting the flow of information!" Anyway, again, I'm very glad I found this and that I learned something new from you! Thank you! I look forward to learning more!

  8. It definitely depends on the video, but I like watching your solo vids a LOT! Sometimes you get a really funny teammate like the guy who played religious chants to piss off the ghost, and sometimes not so much. Have a good one Insym!

    Mm, I disagree (slightly). If you put both EMFs in the house, you have greater coverage for EMF events. Imagine you find the ghost room and slap an EMF down, you'll know if he does anything next to it. If you have the other inside and put it somewhere else, you'll hear if he does anything in that area too.

    2 EMF readers are not as useful as having 2 books inside, but certainly not useless

  10. Do the photos need to be taken in a particular order or does it not matter as long as you've got the highest value things? So like I could do board, 7 fingerprints/interactions, bone, ghost? Would that be the same outcome as any other order?
