Ln Monster Baby - Tumblr Posts

I noticed the organic seeming parts in demo footage but couldn't quite shake the feeling that Baby's mostly doll, time will tell if I'm right. Now that I think about it, the Bullies also had fairly organic looking limbs... . If her head was transformed by her eye then maybe the cracks around her mouth come from her trying to eat before realizing she couldn't open her mouth, in which case, Christ that's sad :( .

The Pretender parallel is something I hadn't noticed before, I love the idea of a bratty girl that can disintegrate people having a ceramic kaiju as an adopted sibling.

The spiral thing is fascinating to me because the demo and trailers only shows Baby in ways that make it impossible to tell if her stomach glows like that in the game itself.

I think the video in this tweet:

shows better than any other the weird spinning light pattern on Baby's stomach. One might even say it's a spiral, maybe she contains the mirror that takes the kids to the second area and we have to get her to "open up", it would explain why they decided to make her a doll.

I have been wondering, though... is she entirely a doll? She does seem to have folds of skin on her arms. The only thing that appears to be doll like is her head, which as you can see has little holes where the hair would normally be.

Taking the Lady's dolls as reference, you can see there is a striking difference: Monster Baby's skin is flexible and soft. All of it except for her head, which is where we know the shining Stone Eye is implanted. I keep wondering if at some point she used to be a... semi normal baby? Entirely made of flesh? Hell, I'm even pondering the possibility that her head looks like that because of the Stone Eye. Like an unwanted side effect.

It would not be the first time we see a doll made out of a living being... the Pretender was quite fond of those, wasn't she.

((Completely unrelated I keep thinking about the Pretender and the Baby here making friends. They remind me of each other in many ways because of the Baby's given description. Monster Baby is starting to grow on me idk how to feel about it))

Going back to what you were saying though: the pattern does seem like it's a spiral because of the way it continously rotates, but I can't help but wonder if it was just a prop for the huge Baby. It might mean something more, but until we see more of her, we can't say for certain.

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...

Dissecting the LN3 Friendship Trailer

I'm so hyped to finally have news on this game, you guys have no idea!!! That being said, let's turn the new trailer inside out to see what we can figure out.

To me this looks like the very end of the Necropolis as Low and Alone move into the second chapter which...

Judging by the greenish hue of where they end up, would be the Factory.

It also seems that the later parts of the Necropolis are going to be more of a stormy grey, which actually looks quit nice.

We see two separate furnace shots, one with a nome. If I had to guess these would be in the Factory or another area, which we'll get to later.

Here's all the confirmed Factory footage, including a better glimpse at the many-armed monster in the area, we can see a rolled up blue sleeve. The last image comes from the official LN3 website, and it seems it's either making candy statues/creatures, or grinding it's staff into the candy. I'm honestly not sure which would be wilder.

We get some good looks at the Carnival, and our first potential glimpse of the Ventriloquist. The thing of his desk looks like a walky-talky, which makes me think the Dummy also has one and will use it to

I'm putting these together because they don't seem to fir into any other area. I think this is from the same chapter as the one some people suspect will be set in The Maw, but at this point it looks more like some... bunker/clocktower/planetarium, I'm not sure.

Either way it's very interesting.

This last shot looks like it could take place at the very start of the Carnival chapter, but I'm not positive.

@queen0fm0nsterz, thoughts on some of these ideas? I'd really appreciate any feedback from my preferred LN expert.
