It certainly does sound like HELPG to my ears. If anyone else wants a crack at listening, here's what HELPG sounds like in standard morse to compare the audio to.

But of course, we still don't know what HELPG means here.

I think I may have just confirmed that the OldRPGTunes account is also linked to this ARG. I was looking at the channel's videos and noticed that the thumbnail for the Copain Cow video was completely black, and I don't remember if it was always like that. I took the large version of the thumbnail and played around with the Brightness/Contrast/Levels with it as well, and while I don't see any text this time, I DO see what appears to be a very creepy man standing next to the US flag? Take a look: i.imgur.com/QQxM1Pe.png

This means we should also focus on the OldRPGTunes channel plus the two cryptic messages it has given us before, which are:

"O34M4-D1D-t3o87 PvNp2"

and

"OD7BoB7 fr7"

Another thing that came to mind is that there may be more secret messages to find in the videos that are only shown for a couple frames.

If that's the case, it's going to be a pain looking for them. I'm not even sure how we would go about trying to find them.

We'll go and see the Cracks again someday.

I have no clue if I did this right, but after running a high pass filter through the audio in Audacity several times so I can hear the beeps better, I came up with this: .... --- .-.. -.. --.
It apparently translates to "HOLDG" or maybe "HOLD G"?

This could mean a few things:
1. I can't do morse code correctly or maybe I didn't hear it right.
2. It may not be morse code after all.
3. My translation is correct, but we haven't found anything that we can interact with yet that will allow us to "hold G".
4. Something else.

I translate the morse code and it is "HOLDME".
.... --- .-.. -.. -- . I checkd the spectrogram of the audio and there is a sapce between the last -- and .

and I find a youtube video that named "HOLD ME" and the user who uploaded the video called

"a region of unsacrificeable land" -- same to the titile of the ulisted video posted by RPGmaker12

Nice catch Sapineisum! I've archived that video as well! As for the eerie image, it's obviously an edited version of President Obama's official photo portrait. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama#/media/File:President_Barack_Obama.jpg

The OBAMA-DID- message from OldRPGTunes must mean something if Obama is going to be mentioned more than once.

Also the new channel is a great find! I actually googled "a region of unsacrificeable land" when I first found the unlisted video but at the time it didn't show anything. Now it does.

The channel actually just put out another video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=myTUO00rGLo

So far the only clue I could find from it is the weird sounds at the end of the video. If you put the audio into a Spectrogram, it says "don't play the game. don't play the game."

We'll go and see the Cracks again someday.

just an idea
the newest video, "Spin," may refer to a propaganda concept, which is used to manipulate or deceive the public
and from the background audio, which sounds like several pieces of news reports, a theme of violation or manipulation or whatever a political topic is involved
it seems to make sense of why OLDRPGTunes has Obama in clues
of course this could be a red herring, but who knows

Interesting.. You may be on to something here.

The full message (O34M4-D1D-t3o87 PvNp2) hasn't been decoded yet, so it's hard to tell what it means.

By the way, I forgot to mention, a separate subreddit has been created for this ARG: reddit.com/r/RPGmakerfan12/

We'll go and see the Cracks again someday.

This is interesting information (I think), but to you and all future readers, please move to the subreddit linked further up this page to avoid bumping this thread further.
