[@cray_draws]

The "eternal revival system", next to "the accidental creation" make me think of this : He was trying to revive his daughter in the game but as we saw, she dies in the end in an horrific maner. The accidental creation is that she revives every time the game is restarted but always dies in horror at the end. This could be the reason he committed suicide in the end. This revival system would also be the reason why he can still answer emails. He revived, but only inside a program, like his daughter revived in the game. He survived thanks to the electronic equipment he brought is his death, and is now trapped on the internet. This allowed him to create these KZbin videos out of a game that was never published until it was recently bought. The problem with this last idea is, why would he want to buy a physical copy of the game if he isn't material? (I don't know if there is still some activity around this video, I'm probably never going to reach anybody but I thought I was going in a good direction)

[@Emily-xp8uu]

Okay theory time: Manfred, like it says in the video, wants to create this game for his daughter based on her drawing. I assume, based on the game play, messages, and the story of this strange game, this: Manfred's daughter could've had a chronic illness (or maybe she was in accident. I am unsure, but I believe that the crow on life-support is his daughter. The thing that drags her away could be a symbolic meaning of death or maybe the illness.). She died before the game was created and, afterwards, all of Manfred's sole reason for the game was lost. I believe Manfred was driven to a point of insanity by her death. The strange assets could be things made for a specific level, where it gives away the reason why or how Thea died. In his insanity, he fires his developers and drives his family away. He begins to fear his own creation (suggesting from the lines 'I am in hell. One I made myself.') because it slowly losing it's real purpose and is spiraling into a game based on Manfred's insanity. 'The player is gone' is losing Thea. The game then turns into a game for Nills. He tries to contact and get to his son. However, he cannot reach him. Maybe, he just wanted to make the game for his son now. After not being able to reach him, he gives up and throws away the equipment made to make the game where it lies in the bottom of the ocean. Manfred, however, could still be a mystery, but I strongly believe he is alive. They found his boat, but this video never mentions his car. So, what if he swam back to shore and drove away? 'I have - finally - gone home.' Could mean he probably went somewhere significant to him, whether that be a place, a city, a country, who knows! That is a mystery. The game, in my opinion, is focused on the aspect of Thea's death. The character we play at first is Nills, trying to find his father busy in his office (I believe this is like his father stuck in his office trying to finish this game on his own) and the last character we play is Manfred, watching his daughter slowly leave this world. While Nills goes through crazier and crazier levels, it's to represent his father's slow spiral into grief and insanity. The last level, I believe, was made by Manfred himself. With the textures missing, the strange teddy bear path, and the house that looks like his own, I believe this is true. That is just my general idea. Some other things confuse me a lot. What do you guys theorize. I'd like to know!

I'll try and make a theory of my own "Dearest Thea, I am sorry that I could not be with you in the end. I was too afraid. I ran, and now I am in hell. One I made myself." - This sounds a lot like Thea died("the player is gone."), and he wasn't with her in her final moments because he was afraid of seeing her die, or perhaps he was too occupied with creating the game for her. Now he's ashamed of himself, the guilt of not being there for her is consuming him, and he believes it's his own fault that he feels this way. Maybe he even blames himself for her dying. "Maybe if I was with her, she would have held on." Perhaps he grew obsessed with completing the game to honor her memory, maybe hoping it would bring him peace. Maybe, in his grieving mind, he thought that making her game would somehow bring her from the brink of death, give her a new will to live, but it just didn't work out that way. Maybe that's what broke him and caused him to turn the game into more of a cry for help or elaborate suicide note, detailing what he had to suffer through. The crow on life support, the crow jumping off the boat, the crow obsessively typing code, "he's not been home for days.", it all matches parts of the story. This was the hell he made for himself.

I’m watching this while it’s raining outside, and literally at 11:53, as water started filling up more, it started pouring more and more heavily outside. That scared the hell out of me...

[@libbyh1184]

Okay, now I am getting creepy things in my reco I need to back away and leave.

[@241Cookies__]

Good idea

You can’t.

Ubisoft goes Steamworks bye bye, always on DRM

"Are ya winning son?" "Hhuh.... huh huhh......" The headless crow scares me. The scream right after makes me refuse to sleep.

[@crow6578]

I'm sorry but the effort put into the intro and basically everything??? Wonderful, absolutely gorgeous Edit: People are asking why I'm sorry, my apologies. I'm not sorry for anything, it's an… instinct? Something like that jfksdjf

[@tonypeppermint5329]

Yep.

[@NicoTheCinderace]

@Star Killer I mean, the OP's got a point. Inside A Mind puts a lot of work into his videos.

[@aronbartal]

Anybody knows the intro music

I’m just imagining Manfred vibing to _To The Bottom Of The Sea_ by Voltaire all the way down at the bottom of the ocean.

[@egg_runner8379]

Maybe it was a poor idea to watch creepy lost horror stuff at 3am

[@rainbowroad]

probaly

[@Portal.Turret]

Yep. Same

[@jassemalqadri7089]

Maybe

it's 6am for me but i have auditory hallucinations when i'm in the dark heh... i'm in danger

Nobody: Me: * just sitting there with my mouth open and thinking - is this an ARG? or is this real? while changing my mind every minute... *

[@lamihadamshareef5270]

I know this may seem like a bot but I am getting attention of everyone because we also need help from arg community for binding of issac community because there is art happing in a mod known as the feaind folio mod

[@Sushmyt]

@Oshabot 16 it always ruins the joke

[@nenamagica6711]

Maybe the one who sold the game was the son himself without knowing it was for him?

[@javieresq22]

Maybe he didn't want it

[@coolkidcody4448]

Knowing how arg goes that probably what will happen

[@mikeplays8302]

Now I'm wondering, Does the Beta Tester have anything Involved within this that's Bigger?

[@Blueflag04]

Sadly Adam bought it

[@crackedoreo5459]

thats what i was thinking too. does it ever say how old the son even was before the father's "suicide". maybe he was too young to remember his dad making the game at all

[@SonicChan654]

i found this in my recommendations, not disappointed knowing the fact that the video was made by the same person who did a documentary on Daisy Brown, damn that was 2 years ago, i’m glad to be back on this channel, keep up the good work
