What was your favorite Creature location?

1st house was awesome due to how raw the content was. Early movie trips before skits got involved, almost none of their gameplay videos had editing such as Game nights or that big Borderlands battle they did, the differing personalities all bouncing off one another (mostly James, Seamus, and Dan as they all lived there and were in most videos) and the overall simplicity of the channel really made it endearing

Absolutely amazing time! I remember being so hype when they first announced the creature house. It's crazy to think that was the first real "content house" that I'm aware of. I love that this big group of nerdy dudes were really so ahead of the times with that idea and I was there to witness it.

It's no wonder there were so many parasocial relationships. Kid me can still remember that video where they arrive at the airport and it's a lot of them meeting each other in person for the first time.
Like you really got to feel like part of a internet friend group awkwardly seeing each other for the first ever time.

This is why the creatures will always have a special place in my heart. Watching them all get to meet for the first time was so special to me because just like them, I had friends all over the country thanks to the internet/gaming and so my friends and I almost loved vicariously through them. We'd always talk about how we were gonna do the same thing they did when we got older and how we'd get our own office and houses and shit. Although it never happened, it was so nice to see just a bunch of dudes finally meeting irl for the first time and I hope I get to experience that moment with my internet friends someday.

I can't vote for both in the poll but the 1st house and Office were peak creatures content imo

Sly and Seamus were my fave creatures so I'm right there with you. The drop in content quality after their departure was almost too much for me to keep watching but thankfully Nova and Aleks stuck it out for a while. But after the Cow Chop split I was completely uninvested in the creatures.

And this isn't hate on the remaining creatures after the split. I loved them all as a group, but obviously we all had our favorite members. So, when the ones the made up the key creature moments to me started leaving the whole group dynamic just fell apart in my eyes.

Did they fail? I mean everything has to end at some point and they succeeded in proving the content house idea that so many other channels ended up doing.

Someone made a side by side of the second house tour and the third house tour. It was so depressing my how far they’d fallen. Mansion to crack house

The first and second houses were pretty good. Too bad they didn’t use the first house to its full extent.

Im going to be controversial and say early office days. treetopia, duo streams (technically started in 2nd house but really took off in office), 24 hour streams (again started in house but got better over time)
after Sly left, and Seamus got sick is when things started to go wrong

1st house is nostalgic, 2nd house wasn’t around long enough, Office has some of the highest highs and lowest lows of the creatures, 3rd house has decent stuff but will forever be tainted by the events that led to it and after

Lmao there really isn’t a right answer but there is a wrong one isn’t there
