While this series starts of somewhat slowly, with the first few entries seeming like a copycat of Marble Hornets—wow, does it ever turn into a fantastic webseries! Really, it's worth it to hang in there on this one, past the first few entries because once Tribetwelve gets rolling, it becomes its own beast.
I started watching this series after watching Marble Hornets and Everymanhybrid after hearing mixed reviews, but boy was I glad I gave it a chance, as now it's my favorite out of all three.
The proxies/Collective in Tribetwelve are really good Nightmare Fuel, and Slenderman himself is illustrated creatively, with great special effects. The plots twists make sense, but aren't easily predictable—in fact I think this series seems really well-written. I get great pleasure out of seeing a big plot twist and then being able to go back to really early on in the series and being able to see foreshadowing for that plot twist really early on. It tells me that the writer knows what he's doing with the series, and has a endgame in mind.
Pacing also seems really well done, and there aren't many entries where nothing of importance happens. Noah, the main character, is likeable and sympathetic, and I feel like his acting is done quite well (though there were some weak points early on in the series, keep watching- it gets better!). In fact, most aspects of this series continue to improve as the creator improves. I really do think this series has the best special effects out the Big 5 slenderseries. Also, most intriguing use of time travel that I remember encountering in pretty much anything!
In conclusion, Tribetwelve is a great series that is totally worth watching if you're interested in horror/slenderverse! 5/5
My Favorite Slenderverse Series!
