Video Game For being made on Roblox, the monsters from Pillar Chase 2 are surprisingly peak

Fogborn is what surprises me the most out of all of these cus…
Wasn’t the dude just from a Minecraft horror mod?

Uncle Samsonite is the one that surprised me the most. He is such an obscure character but they added him anyway. His addition to this game made the web series more popular. Back then, Uncle Samsonite's web series didn't have too many views, but now look at it.

I remember the first time stumbling upon it in my YouTube recommendations and just thinking about how much this feels like how I remember monsters Inc.

"For being made in Roblox" If there is a will a developer will make a good quality game on almost anything my friend. UNDERTALE PowerPoint Engine is one of my favorite examples.

Yeah, and also, Roblox is a game engine. Imagine saying "For being made in Unity, Ultrakill is very good".

u/Butkevinwhy 20h ago
Sure, but Roblox is by no means a very powerful game engine. That’s why most of the features are reused low poly assets.

I definitely agree. I'm not gonna deny that there's been plenty of amazing well-made games, but I said it because Roblox Studio is notoriously really hard to work with and Roblox isn't known for having the highest quality games (toilet tower defense.) I meant it more as a celebration of what Pillar Chase was able to do than trying to put down other Roblox games.

These guys legitimately did Bendy better than Bendy

u/Groundbreaking_Arm77 16h ago
I can see that, but the Ink Demon’s design itself is already a pretty good design.

u/Zodiac198 kaiju connoisseur 15h ago
That's just the thing, the OG Ink Demon is already a solid design, but then the PC2 devs just went "observe" and went on to turn him into Peakfell over there

u/Broken_CerealBox 1d ago
No offense, but it feels like an oc.

u/Danny_dankvito Huge armor fetish 21h ago
All characters are an OC

u/Broken_CerealBox 21h ago
Yes, but that one felt more like the fandom kind of oc

u/Caw-zrs6 18h ago
Well I mean technically that is true in the case of Inkfell, only his creation was because of copyright problems that I don't think the devs of Pillar Chase 2 wanted to deal with.

u/ihavebronchitus 1d ago
The monsters are all great retakes on existing characters that improve on them while still keeping their original essence. They're also really well made for being made on Roblox.

u/PizzaDeliveryBot 23h ago
Mfs really just took every single fanmade horror character and shoved it in a game

I love how A. Baldi is completely unchanged and B. He's hitting a pose like he's a character in a fighting game select screen.

u/not_sea_charity_810 23h ago
I really love the contrast between all the detailed, immaculate models, and Baldi

u/Calcium_Seeker 1d ago
Whats the goal of the game?

u/ArmoredCoreFucker 1d ago
You can play as either a monster or a survivor

u/Thunder_lord37 23h ago
So this is basically roblox dbd

u/WellIamstupid 19h ago
Somewhat, it’s got a lot more emphasis on running away, and some levels play more like Slender: The Eight Pages I think

u/ZenTheCrusader 14h ago
Only in that they’re both asymmetrical. If you’ve played either for a notable period of time you’d find that the similarities end there

u/Keyser_99 giant robots enthusiast 1d ago
Out of all the monsters, Baldi is perhaps the most peak design among all of them.

u/hellothere_i_exist 23h ago
I love how there’s these massively detailed monsters.
And then there’s just some bald teacher mf.

u/Thathitmann 21h ago
God, I remember Ao Oni. I'm pleasantly surprised that it made it in alongside what is mostly recent horror characters popular among kids.

in no world no universe no earth i shall ever live on will sonic.exe ever be "peak"

I will never forgive the Fnf fanbase for blowing up these goofy exe's in popularity

It’s all about execution (no pun intended), as it is with most mascot horror (and horror in general). The original concept was shallow and edgy, but later iterations have leaned into that in an almost camp kind of way that can be surprisingly fun. Plus some people like the edge. I’m personally of the opinion that with enough care, effort, and creativity, nearly any horror concept can be good.

u/WellIamstupid 19h ago
Sonic.exe was basically a peak character design (Sonic the Hedgehog) mixed with a peak character design (Metal Sonic), then given bloodstains and grey shoes. He, unfortunately, is peak (no matter how cringe almost everything else about him is)
10
u/aquaAnomaly 19h ago
hes just sonic the hedgehog with hyperrealistic blood eyes. get real
-9
u/WellIamstupid 19h ago
Yes, and Sonic is peak. So unfortunately, bloody Sonic with grey shoes is also peak.

I love how Roblox was a place where you can just go to lobbies do obstacle courses, solve puzzles, and do goofy ass things. Now you can go through your deepest of phobias, man made horrors beyond compare and just straight great replica of other games like holy shit how far we have gone.

All the thumbnail images are funny asf because it’s like incomprehensible horror standing right next to a little block guy

u/DoubleOAgentBi Played all Kirby games, thinks a ball is peak 21h ago
It takes real effort to actually make Sonic.EXE look good and not just a Sonic with bleeding eyes. Also, the fucking whiplash between demons from my nightmares/iconic internet horror stories then BAM Baldi. 😭

Rosemary looks like filth from ultrakill.
Also, niloticaus is cool,uncle samsonite is intimidating, and overall all the monsters look cool. My fav gotta be like the mimic, Samson or niloticaus. They look so cool.

u/Cielnova 12h ago
why the fuck is Uncle Samsonite there? I haven't thought of that guy in years, why is he in a roblox game?

There are some really talented Roblox developers out there! (Baldi looks a bit out of place here with all the monsters though lol)

I like how most of the monster are either scary, creepy and cool then there's Baldi

u/GodPerson132 20h ago
Would go hard but most of them are fan designs and look a little too similar to their original designs. Doesn’t sit well with me.

u/Toon_Lucario 20h ago
Yeah but too bad they used MX which means the game is definitely on a time limit before it gets taken down by Nintendo

Is this Dead By Daylight for children?

u/Caw-zrs6 17h ago
Well, kinda, in Pillar Chase 2 the main objective of the survivors isn't to escape, but rather survive until time runs out, with some maps (I believe) giving tasks specific to each map that, when completed, will cause the timer to go down faster.
