Figured I'd reach out to see what the general consensus on this might be. Substation 9 is an article very much in the vein of a creepypasta, and features a handful of videos as part of its narrative. Would people prefer if I pause the narration at certain points to just let these videos play by themselves, or should I just narrate over them? Both have pros and cons, so I'm just not sure.

Definitely narrated! Back in 5999 I think, the trippy as heck This is Where I Died story, the audio at the end just really fell flat. Like it didn’t ruin the story, but I’m a listener over a watcher, then have all this buildup, for a video with audio I can only hear and not see and such.
