The Multiplayers / MCYT Fanfic [Band AU - Bench Trio-centric] / Thoughts
holy
fucking
shit
Okay. so. This. Multiplayer is kinda like a IRL sort of fic (they all have their channels, dream smp is canon but in the minecraft roleplay sense) ??? Basically Bench Trio make a band as a joke (but while faceless) but then it actually gets famous (Apparently Purpled was in it before but then when he updated his boundaries about not wanting any IRL fics of him out there it just changed it to bench trio only??)
But so uh. I don't usually read IRL sort of fics but like. I discovered this fic from an animation that was recommended to me on YT
It's really good and I'd recommend giving it a watch afterwards!
BUT. So. HOLY FUCKING SHIT- I don't know, I just. I think it unlocked a newfound interest for me because I just really fuckin like the band AU and I like music and people making it, and I was just so obsessed with them posting because like WOOO it just made me really happy :D
It's more on the fluffy side and isn't really angsty?? The farthest it gets is kinda light ?? It's usually just kinda anxiety sort of stuff and worries, not necessarily anything like intense hatred and backfire-age (I mean there are hate comments BUT literally everything has hate comments- it doesnt play that big of a role)
so I really liked it.
It was certainly interesting how they decided to do a face reveal, and how they'd announce it?? I mean c'mon, at the end of a cover and then showing all three of them with cool masks on and then taking it off but before anyone can see their face it cuts to black and then it gives a link to their twitch acc that theyre gonna stream their face reveal?
AYO?????
No but honestly I'm the type of viewer who'd probably somewhat enjoy it but not really stick around for every type of video (and therefore would miss the stream lmaoo)
But I also like how they decided to add twitter threads of people discussing it and just like how others are interacting with each other, the addition of a group chat where it shows their text messages to each other, and also NEWS ARTICLES???? And it does the thing where it shows the title and then there's also the bottom part of whats written in it BUT its pretty short like how when youre just looking at the links on like google and it shows like a small sample of whats in it???
its just so fucking cool man
id really recommend giving it a try even if it doesnt really seem like your cup of tea because you never really know??
I might not read other fics like this though since I usually just read like DSMP, or like those SuperHero AU fics (I'm sorry, its probably so fucking overrated lmao, I actually dont do a review over every fic I read because I kinda just save them for the ones that I think a lot of people could like, and its not a dead dove do not eat. I do read those, but I dont do reviews over them because they get triggering as fuck to some and I really don't wanna do a fic where I don't give enough warnings?? And I don't do it over Superhero fics because it just really reaches lol, and I know a lot of fanfics do that, but its not really a thing I want to do lol. I also will probably only do it over already completed fics usually because I will binge them, because other fics that I'm still waiting to be completed I will just forget what happens and then the review turns out not the best??? I also kinda try to stick to fics that have a lot of chapters, or arent oneshots)
do give it a try though? if you have any recommendations for any other fics tho lemme know
