Disturbing Footage Of A Player Who Doesn't Exist

Playing Minecraft with your friends is a lot of fun and is very memorable, but one day a player who thought he was playing Minecraft with his friends wasn't actually playing with them, in fact the friend they believed to be playing with wasn't real and slowly throughout the series AlexSpeaks finds out that this might be the case for him.

This guy is a genius for thinking of such an intricate and detailed story. I personally think that Matthew is Alex himself and he is just talking with himself in the form of schizophrenia to feel less lonely. In Alex's video, Matthew types, "And I just can't wake up." but in Donny's video it is Alex who says that which further proves my theory. Truly a mastermind.

[@jellyisfunny.1252]

Good theory but that guys theory has alot of evidence so it has to be the main one.

that makes sense too, nice theory.

[@perpetual_sigh]

Just a few things I noticed: 7:25 you mentioned that Matthew was responding for Alex, but that's not how I interpreted it. Seconds earlier, you showed that Alex said he was making the farm FOR Matthew, so I think Matthew was just thanking him for it. That would explain why Alex didn't see it as weird. 18:03 I think Matthew is intended to be portrayed as a friend from school, considering that he said earlier "this school sucks", implying that he goes to the same school as Alex. 28:36 oh. OH. this callback to the beginning, where Alex says "they might as well be dead or something" is what really solidifies my own theory. Matthew is dead. I think that Matthew was one of Alex's old friends, from before he moved. It would explain why Matthew seems to know everything about Alex, as well as his relationships with his old friends. Matthew passed away, and that's why Alex began to distance himself from everyone else. Matthew and Alex were best friends, but Alex can't move on. I'm not sure if Matthew is completely imagined, or if it's meant to be interpreted that Matthew is a ghost trying to guide Alex through his grief, but either way, Matthew was never truly there. It isn't until Alex starts playing with Donny that we see a change in Matthew's character. He becomes transparent. He starts to disappear. At 22:43, I think it's incredibly significant to note that in game, Alex _died._ And in the black space that came after, Matthew is there, further pointing to the possibility that Matthew has been dead all along. And finally, starting at 24:15, Alex claims that he woke up. I think this means that he finally sees and accepts the fact that Matthew is gone, especially because, right after that, we have the video where he says goodbye to Matthew, who disappears altogether. I think this truly symbolizes that Alex is finally accepting the truth, and moving on. I think the whole channel in general may be an allusion to grief, and how one kid in particular deals with it. Maybe the concept of "moving" that we saw in the beginning isn't even in the literal sense, but more in a sense of "moving on", which means that every time Alex remarks on how difficult moving is, or how much it sucks, he may very well be talking about how hard it is to move on from the death of a friend. But that's just a theory. ;] There's more I'd love to unpack, like the conversation at 15:53, or any of the other conversations after that between Matthew and Alex, but for now I'll leave it here. Hope someone could gain some enjoyment from hearing my theory. Overall, I find the channel incredibly intriguing :D

[@vintiru9310]

Matthew is a friend that passed away, and blokwinz feels remorse because the last thing they did was argue over that house. That's their last memory, and they beat themselves up over it. That's how I see it. After all, the tribute to his friend that he wrote at the end really carries the feeling of saying goodbye to somebody you lost rather than some imaginary friend or somebody he just moved away from on bad terms. Matthew also telling him to "be nicer" and such, he's likely blaming himself for the last interaction of his friend alive going that way.

[@helloine.1123]

this storyline is so good, the way they focused on the details and such. Matthew symbolise as a "imaginary friend" towards Alex. when Donny joined the server, Matthew slowly disappear due to Donny's excisting in the server. Matthew slowly disappear in Alex sight, because Alex find a new friend, perhaps a companion. Matthew is just Alex's imagination, Matthew was "created" to accompany Alex, and when Donny joined, Donny are the one who continues to accompany Alex, so Matthew doesn't have a reason to stay, because someone's already accompanying Alex. such a good scripting, I love this.

to me, this just feels like a representation of social anxiety. donny makes "blokwinz" comfortable so it slowly fades away. that would explain the "be more friendly" messages that matthew whispered to them. also, matthew mentionned how scared the guy was about confronting their old friends.

[@Buggy_shark]

honestly I like that. mostly because as far as I see, every time Nlokwinz talks about something positive Mathew disappears. and when Mathew disappears it could mean that Blokwinz is finding comfort or more happiness. Mathew acts like a subcountious for The player, he acts like a lil oice in his head, not a mean on, but a comforting one, it's like the thoughts of him that he refuses are himself, Find_Nulla acts like the memories and thoughts people hide away and block out in the mind. is like if that makes sense If it doesn't sorry. it's honestly cool, this video is cool.

[@Tls12349]

Matthew is such a mistery. It could be interpreted as his old friend, imaginary friend, "notebook", an embodiment of his social fear, or himself. Matthew leaving when player talked about the new project friend who he likes is already a big hint who matthew is. It's already point out matthew dissapear when the player brings up the fact he's starting to like the new environment. It's great to see the player overcome his fears and finally bid farewell to matthew. This video analytic is amazing, kudos!!

[@cedricqueck]

Tbh, this isn't a scary story at all, I find it rather sad. The fact that the player introduced himself to a friend to make him feel better and have more motivation to make friends and then he made a friend and matthew then leaves. Edit: Im so happy? Im not gonna reply to any comment btw.

[@deadlyyritual]

Another thing I noticed at 22:49, in the players POV, Nulla says the quote. In his friends POV, the player says the quote instead. I think that Matthew could also be himself. It could also explain why Matthew is seemingly trying to help, the player is trying to help himself get over the moving. Another thing it explains, is Matthew answering for the Player and comforting him. He’s just talking to himself like you said. Trying to make himself feel better. Like Matthew is himself, trying to make him look at the brighter side.

“It’s like he’s slowly fading away” it’s like losing a friend. They fade away from you, very slowly. Matthew sounded like a good friend (if he was real). And when you fade away from someone, it’s just, you might never see them again. This kid made up his own character to make him feel better. But he got real friends, Matthew, he faded away into… nothing. He lost a friend that gave him good feelings. And the thought of drifting away from a friend that you had for a long time is just sad. I can’t fully explain it in words, but it’s sad.

[@fremchcrab2276]

Another thing I've noticed is that over time mathew slowly dissappears, shown by him become more and more transparenr.

[@therealglosetik]

That ending was genuinely great. It's not about a friend leaving. It's about having finally coped with something that happened to you a long time ago and moving forward rather than staying in the past. Donny is his new friend, Matthew was just a figment of his imagination, but Donny is a very real friend.

I def feel like Matthew was what the player imagined as his old friends. he was lonely and he missed his old friends along with, obviously, not having any after moving. So, he manifested his friends back. Now, the reason I feel like it was his "old friends" was because Matthew knew that he stopped talking to them, at the end, when he meets Donny, the player is starting to forget Matthew since there's no use for him anymore and he started finding happiness. You can also see that he regrets his past because he types "do you ever wish you could've seen the future?" it shows that he regrets not speaking to his friends and wishes he could go back because he never knew he was going to move. at the end, the sign read: "dear friend, I can be better this time, goodbye." was a sign of grief and regret for ignoring and not talking to his old friends. It's basically a "it's hard to treasure what you have until you don't have it anymore." type situation. At the end, he moved on from his past and his old friends, accepting that they are gone and forgiving himself from his mistake and not doing it again. very sad and wholesome story, i did cry 😿😿

nulla and Matthew are different. Nulla is the person he’s been playing with but Matthew is his friend from before moving that he never really treated right. Blok seems to imagine them as the same person, almost like nulla is the hallucination of his past friend personified as his internal monologue and feelings. Which is why he’s always talking about the past and trying to recreate it and why nulla always tries to ignore it. When Donny joins blok no longer needs nulla because he’s atoning for his past sins with Matthew by being nice to Donny. Hence why nulla tells him to be more friendly and stuff. Blok doesn’t need to comfort him self with the recreation of Matthew through nulla so Matthew fades away as Blok promises to be better..

[@EthanExists]

I was watching this video on my TV, and then I paused it for a while. After a short amount of time, the thumbnail flashed up and I got super scared for a second. That's how you know it's a good thumbnail.

[@PhantomLacewing]

As a writer I can try to explain what I think is going on here. Essentially the player is upset that he lost his friends and is stuck with his thoughts. Nulla represents those thoughts, a part of the player's mind that is trying to comfort him. Then Donnie comes along and is very friendly towards the player. The player is sceptical at first so Nulla tells him to be nicer and the player starts to adjust to having a friend again. I'm assuming the player has some trust issues due to whatever happened with his friends in the past but in the end he realizes that he's pushing away an opportunity and changes his mind, making friends with Donnie. Genuinely great story writing if you ask me.

[@neko-nii1523]

Realll

[@andro_pheonix5593]

Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is a mental health condition. If you're living with DID, it means you have two or more separate identities. These personalities control your behavior at different times. Each identity has its own personal history, traits, likes and dislikes. DID can lead to gaps in memory and hallucinations (believing something is real when it isn’t). so if you start to connect the dots, the player was a person sad that they moved out and lost all of their friends, thats why mathew was there, they're just a seperate personality our player has from the trauma of whatever happened to their friend, and thats why mathew said thanks to their own compliment, our player was saying that, but its just a mistake in their personality, its just having did, thinking of a friend, and thats why mathew starts to disappear as our player finds a new friend, our player begins to finally cope, and let their old past go, these video footages are the perfect explanations to how systems(people with did) really are like, and i found it geniuenely a beatiful way to raise awareness of it.

[@maxzapsgamingzepzeap2337]

Surprised nobody has mentioned this, but the username “Donnie Darko” isn’t just a random name. It’s actually the title of a film where the main character of the same name is constantly haunted by apparitions of a man in a white rabbit costume who had been recently killed (technically. There’s some time stuff that makes it so the apparition exists before the man actually dies but that doesn’t seem to be the part that’s important to the reference, though maybe there’s some significance in that given they mention time a lot with stuff like the first video asking if you wish things were how they used to be) I feel like this obviously relates to the situation, where our main character is haunted by these sometimes ghostly looking visions of a friend of theirs with a white Minecraft skin. The main difference is the kid in the video named Darko isn’t the one haunted, he’s on the sidelines watching his friend being haunted, which I feel adds onto the theory that Matthew is actually dead due to him best fitting the rabbit apparition I mentioned

[@kit_ket1]

Small little detail: at 22:49, Matthew says "and I just cant wake up" but at 23:42, its actually AlexSpeaks, blokwinz, or most commonly referred to in this video as the player, who says "and i just cant wake up." I'm assuming this continues on as Matthew keeps speaking to Alex, but the messages instead are shown to be typed by Alex. This is very confusing as only Alex can see and talk with Matthew. I believe that during this time, Alex is in a state of somniloquy, or sleep talking. When Donny mentions using a dairy to write down his thoughts, we obviously see that from Alex's perspective, he looks at Matthew and Matthew looks at Alex. Matthew is definitely some kind of imaginary diary that Alex uses since for all of the videos before he meets Donny, he speaks in a morbid way, talking about how his friends may already be "dead" or comparing moving as "the world ending to some nuclear apocalypse." As explained in the video, when Alex meets Donny, Matthew starts to fade as Alex starts to get to know and learn more about Donny. This represents that Alex is starting to feel comfortable around Donny and is starting to talk less to Matthew, as if he's starting to talk less to his imaginary diary. After a bit of time, on the final episode, Matthew looks at Alex as if urging him to let go of him. Alex hesitates for a moment but then gives into reality as he's now friends with Donny and finally lets go of Matthew. Honestly, its a common story as moving is a difficult time for you as you lose contact with old friends and are hesitant to make new friends since you're not familiar with the new place, but the way it was executed was amazing. It was simple but effective. ts was just me yapping and possibly overanalyzing but still tho it was an amazing story

also, in the episode where Alex dies and respawns in a void with Matthew, Matthew says "and I just cant wake up". but in Donny's perspective, ALEX is the one who says that, that also explains why in one of the the first episodes matthew answered himself.

[@guillermojoachinreyna3215]

from someone else in this comment section that really sums up what it truly might be: "Matthew is a friend that passed away, and blokwinz feels remorse because the last thing they did was argue over that house. That's their last memory, and they beat themselves up over it. That's how I see it. After all, the tribute to his friend that he wrote at the end really carries the feeling of saying goodbye to somebody you lost rather than some imaginary friend or somebody he just moved away from on bad terms. Matthew also telling him to "be nicer" and such, he's likely blaming himself for the last interaction of his friend alive going that way." as well as this "Just a few things I noticed: 7:25 you mentioned that Matthew was responding for Alex, but that's not how I interpreted it. Seconds earlier, you showed that Alex said he was making the farm FOR Matthew, so I think Matthew was just thanking him for it. That would explain why Alex didn't see it as weird. 18:03 I think Matthew is intended to be portrayed as a friend from school, considering that he said earlier "this school sucks", implying that he goes to the same school as Alex. 28:36 oh. OH. this callback to the beginning, where Alex says "they might as well be dead or something" is what really solidifies my own theory. Matthew is dead. I think that Matthew was one of Alex's old friends, from before he moved. It would explain why Matthew seems to know everything about Alex, as well as his relationships with his old friends. Matthew passed away, and that's why Alex began to distance himself from everyone else. Matthew and Alex were best friends, but Alex can't move on. I'm not sure if Matthew is completely imagined, or if it's meant to be interpreted that Matthew is a ghost trying to guide Alex through his grief, but either way, Matthew was never truly there. It isn't until Alex starts playing with Donny that we see a change in Matthew's character. He becomes transparent. He starts to disappear. At 22:43, I think it's incredibly significant to note that in game, Alex died. And in the black space that came after, Matthew is there, further pointing to the possibility that Matthew has been dead all along. And finally, starting at 24:15, Alex claims that he woke up. I think this means that he finally sees and accepts the fact that Matthew is gone, especially because, right after that, we have the video where he says goodbye to Matthew, who disappears altogether. I think this truly symbolizes that Alex is finally accepting the truth, and moving on. I think the whole channel in general may be an allusion to grief, and how one kid in particular deals with it. Maybe the concept of "moving" that we saw in the beginning isn't even in the literal sense, but more in a sense of "moving on", which means that every time Alex remarks on how difficult moving is, or how much it sucks, he may very well be talking about how hard it is to move on from the death of a friend. But that's just a theory. ;] There's more I'd love to unpack, like the conversation at 15:53, or any of the other conversations after that between Matthew and Alex, but for now I'll leave it here. Hope someone could gain some enjoyment from hearing my theory. Overall, I find the channel incredibly intriguing :D" This is all very good evidence to support this isn't just some entity but its actually the grief of Alex instead and the whole story is just his own journey of dealing and coping with it while adjusting to the new environment of moving, as stated here in another message "I love these allegories and symbolism they're hinting towards here: There's a very clear "Plato's Cave" allegory shown throughout, where the main player would be constantly inside of a tunnel beneath the surface, hinting towards their fear of going out and making friends / new experiences in a new environment. Matthew could symbolize player's inner thoughts slowly drowning them out, especially when the player is stuck within the dark cube or when Matthew starts personally attacking them through in-game chat. I'd say Matthew disappearing could symbolize the player's overcoming of the mentioned fear. Player leaves his tunnel out into the surface afterwards almost like stepping out of a dark cave into the light. This one might be a reach, but staring at growing crops and constantly trying to make a farm hints towards the player wanting to fit in and adapt. In the first attempt of him making a farm, they plant down 2 seeds, as opposed to 6 seeds in his last episode, symbolizing that the player is getting used to the newer environment or / and growing as a person. Building a fence around their home might hint towards the player feeling isolated due to them pushing back their friends and moving to a new place. When you think about it, the main player hasn't really left the fenced home, rather travelling trough tunnels from that place, spying on his friend almost like peaking into the new surroundings. In the last episode he is visibly out of the fence, almost like leaving his isolation and experiencing new things, symbolized by making a treehouse for instance. Also, pretty sure the Minecraft world symbolizes the new environment itself. It would fit in perfectly, as Michael appears in the world cause it is the only thing the player is left with - his inner thoughts. Every other symbolism I've listed would also match perfectly. The weather to emotion correlation, as listed in the video, would make a lot of sense as well, as the raining weather in this new environment could hint towards the player feeling depressed."

Matthew is the ghost of his friends and who he was. Not the literal ghost, but the ghost of their friendship. He's the ghost of what our player perspective wanted from his friends at home speaking of both how the player feels as well as how his old friends felt. It's the amalgamation of abandonment and lost hope that brought him to where he is. It's not just a story of separation, but the story of betrayal and abandonment. He could be what he wanted, when they initially met, but turned into something just way more saddening. I can't even explain the feeling, but I can feel it, and that's what hurts the most about this story.

I thinks that's representative of the the fact that matthew is Blokwins. It could represent a split personality made as a coping mechanism slowly fusing with Blokwins due to his dying need to cope.

Considering Alex's dark thoughts through the series, his complaints about school, his bad interactions with past friends, him destroying a public area (the burnt village) I thought alex was on the verge of becoming a school shooter or some shit like that and I am pretty sure he's mentally ill since he not only sees things that don't exist but he shows paranoia by theorizing that their something in his world and with him spying on donny for no good reason.

I remember something weird happened to me in my minecraft world that still haunts me to this day. I loaded in one of those small worlds… um I don’t know how to explain it but it’s like really small. And then I thought it was stupid so I changed the world type in the settings and it somehow worked. (This is on Xbox btw)… and it was all weird. It loaded in different. That one chunk was a dessert and everything else around it was a small lake and random sand islands. I decided to adventure to not be reminded of my very poor decisions and swam till I found land. When I was walking around suddenly I noticed right away that there were no mobs in sight. I ran and I searched for sheep but after a few minutes I only found some pig. I was surprised and I was just about to exit when I heard running, from another player. I turned and saw nothing. I quickly had forgotten I was about to exit when I saw dandelions! I don’t think I even noticed but it was a bit long till nighttime… now looking back a lot happened in one day. I did find a village and got my bed from there because I love stealing. I then slept and set off once more (especially when I saw there was no black smith)… once I was halfway through a dark oak biome I heard the running again. The sound was over lapping the walking sound I was making by playing around. I turned and saw nothing. So far all I saw for mobs were villagers and an iron golem, I did then see a chicken which surprised me a lot because I didn’t see any mob other than the villagers! Once I heard the running again I quickly logged out and never went back. I still tell this story and literally no one believes me. I still think it was weird looking back but I don’t really mind it. I did eventually get a Ps5 and glitches like that have never happened since so I’m fine.

9:44 I'm pretty sure the "thanks" was just an additional comment given to alex for making the farm. "This is a nice farm, thanks"

Actually blok says that he is building a farm for Matthew, and Matthew says that it’s a nice farm, thanks

I love this. It's a great representation of the anxiety of moving away and making new friends, feeling like you have no one so you make up someone, or maybe reimagining a friend you lost, either from just not being friends anymore or from death

[@zinthihan1590]

the story sounds confusing and scary at first, but it then goes to a sad vibe. i def wish that our player gets better and makes many friends

What a beautiful story of a lonely kid who has an imaginary friend and vents to him till he finds a real one then has a goodbye with the imaginary friend
