Glad Someone Finally Made The Joke

Glad someone finally made the joke

I had a vision…

Ah yes, the cunty entity of indeterminateness, great job!

i forgot to put zooble here. im gonna be one of like 5 zooble fans

all in favour of mattpat making a video about the amazing digital circus reblog this post

I'll do you one better:

Ignacio thought John was getting too close to the truth and so decided to burn his house down without telling the other cultists, for all Evermore knows, John really did just burn his own house down out of negligence.

Evermore is definitely part of the cult, but what if his "blah blah blah" thing with John was genuine, what if he genuinely believes he's just helping run an elite group of rich members of the town searching for immortality, and because he's all wrapped up in it, the idea of it being a cult is absurd to him

Dead/Abstracted Performer Headcanons Volume 1/5

Decided to make a bunch of shit up about all the dead people who entered the digital circus (divided into pairs)

Name: Glumis (pronounced like gloom and the name Loomis)

Avatar: Relatively short and stocky inchworm (with suspenders) but his torso and arms telescope out when sufficiently excited or angry.

Personality: Self important "artiste" who initially enjoyed the circus and always gave Caine suggestions for what would make the most engaging and "well written" adventures. He carried himself as empathetic but lashed (and stretches) out when someone would criticize his ideas.

Fun fact: Kinger, Ragatha and Kaufmo were the only canonically named performers to meet Glumis before his abstraction.

Abstraction: One day he realized Caine never took his suggestions and confronted him about it, Caine tried to let him down gently but Bubble showed up and accidentally made it seem like Caine had a personal grudge against Glumis, which broke him. He was sent to the cellar before he could do any damage.

Name: Rovey (since Rover is the most common dog name)

Avatar: Avarege sized dog with a tie that covers their torso and two pairs of cufflinks on each limb (with and extra one on their left leg).

Personality: Cartoonishly boring and tranquil southerner who tried to befriend everyone to keep a healthy balance in the circus dynamic. Occasionally played into stereotypical dog behavior to amuse the other performers.

Fun fact: Rovey was among the first four people to enter the program (even before the chess pieces) and due to a one-off bug forgot what gender they identified as in the real word (he/him, in case you were wondering). Bonus: They could emit stock dog noises.

Abstraction: When new humans entered the digital circus for the first time since their arrival Rovey was so disturbed by the sheer idea of unknowing people being trapped there that it depressed them to the point of Abstraction. They glitched the newbie and two other "original" humans in there rampage by the lake. (The last original had already abstracted)

Breaking down the new LN3 footage

HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT this was really wild, we basically got a collage of everything to expect from the Necropolis and what do you mean "pre-alpha gameplay footage"? This already looks amazing! Now let's start the actual breakdown

The area on the other side of the mirror seems to be the place where we see Low and Alone get pulled into the mirror in the reveal trailer, so that'll probably the beginning of the beginning for the game.

It's interesting to note that the Necropolis seems to be completely walled off from the surrounding desert.

I might be reaching here but that fact that a crow, an animal that's only previously been associated with the North Wind, is the first living obstacle the kids encounter is very interesting.

I can't, for the life of me, tell what era or region clothes the Dwellers are supposed to be wearing so if anyone can tell me, that'd be a big help.

We've had numerous variations of the eye symbol with various meanings ascribed to each, so, again, if anyone can point out any previous instances of this particular version of the eye, please do so.

Quicksand will be a hazard in the Necropolis and more than anything I'm just astonished there wasn't a sand burrower.

The Hercules Beetles are way nastier than I thought, likely because of their disgustingly realistic buzzing, makes feel less bad that Baby already killed most of them.

The bundled bodies around the area are definitely concerning, maybe the Dwellers use to preserve corpses as "offerings" to Monster Baby.

BABY CAN TURN HER EYE BEAMS OFF! This took me completely by surprise, the implications of this are very fascinating to think about.

The kids, or specifically, Low, wake up in a room with padded walls, implying their either in the sewing room of the Seamstress from the Lonely Way (not good), or the Counties Psychiatric Institute (really not good) and on top of that, darkness closes in around them. While we're on it, Lowe wakes up in the same way the protags of previous games do when you respawn and in the same situation that they (and Noone) do too, as their caught by a resident.

One last thing, the blue to grey pulse on the logo screen feels eerily like a heartbeat, and given the top of the "main" mirror almost looks like a heart...
