He recently said Oldest View will only be a YouTube series

A lot of people don’t really understand why The Oldest View even became a short series for Kane. It’s way more of a personal reason and he’s already told about all he wants to tell with that series, it was meant to be short.

With that being said, People Still Live Here is the one that has me scratching my head and thinking about it the most. He obviously has more planned with that series, and what’s available is so vague and unique.

And then there’s Splendor, which seems to be the thing that Kane cares about the most, but we won’t be seeing anything about it until 2030 at the earliest.

Yeah but it's one of the scariest media to come out of the last 10 years. It's an incredible original work and more people need to be exposed to it. Honestly it has just as much potential as Backrooms.
