[@nojot0]

That was all one take, darn. Anyway things of note: He mentions that if playtesters feel deja vu, among other things, to stop the playtesting. As I'll mention later here, with something called game-sync, maybe the game starts doing that personalization thing, and deja vu could be a result of that. It's likely not meant to be turned on during playtesting. Another commenter (Jeroen Both) points out he also mentions the game displaying the playtesters name, another thing which ties into that. He mentions Dan, and says to only tell Dan, no one else, if things happen to the playtesters, as you could face legal trouble. Now, to be fair, this makes some sense, as someone might think it was you who did it, or you did something to cause it, but at the same time, could it be legal trouble from Nintendo? After the normal tape finishes, we find another guy had snuck into the recording room (or really whatever room it was being recorded in.) We learn that the water not being in the moat was this other guy's fault, but the narrator says that Eric didn't have game-sync on. Hmmm, game-sync? He thought it was haunted not because the water was missing, but because it was missing when he didn't have game-sync on? So, this means game-sync can cause that to happen? Hmmm... This other guy also mentions how the animations weren't real. I think we all remember the description of the animation test video and the drowning animation... Well, it seems that was another joke pulled by this guy... Or maybe he's just trying to get out of possible trouble... Another commenter (RawChick) points out the dude also mentions 'that kid.' Who's that kid? After the narrator asks for the other guy to send Meg down to him if he passes her in the hall, she happens to walk in. She says she can't find Eric, possibly she was searching for him? She's called a know-it-all... A typical insult, or a sign she learned a tad more than she should've? The narrator also asks if she has a another moment, possibly in reference to Eric? She gets kinda annoyed at that. She also gets pretty pissed that this whole thing was being recorded on her camcorder without her permission... This whole ending segment happens during a power outage, probably normal, happens every now and then, but still a bit spooky I suppose. So, this video gives us a small new piece of information on game-sync, and introduces two new characters. The narrator seems to be well-intentioned, at least to me, being a tad upset with that other guy for pulling his trick on Eric. The other guy seems to be mischievous, pulling at least two tricks on Eric, but doesn't seem to be ill-intentioned, at least not yet. So that's my analysis of this video, probably my favorite yet!

[@hoteltapwater]

[@charlie891]

@@hoteltapwater you know it's dan because of the accent

[@nojot0]

@Danke Watch the video in the background, while reading this, so that you hear what the video is saying as you read what I think some possibilities are. I don’t really think I could summarize.

[@computer_dude]

The only part that weirds me out are deja-vus. In theory, deja-vus happen because your brain gets out of sync or something like that, and receives the same information twice, giving that "i've seen that somewhere else" vibe. Now, if this thing can cause deja-vus, it means that maybe it is directly messing with the brain. That could also explain the other symptoms. I mean, stress _can_ be normal if this thing mixes wishes with fears. But deja-vus? I've never seen an unsolved psychological trauma being powerful enough to cause deja-vus. And if i'm correct, we should bring another question to the table: _Why_ can it interfere with your brain? Is that an undocumented feature or (the ARG) Nintendo is planning on mass mind control? Either way, if this function was made in good faith (which i highly doubt) then i can see how this prototype failed. It is too risky.

BIG CLUE: In the 7z file anonymously sent to Eric which contains design documents that belonged to him, one of the pages details early SM64 level concepts, and one of the level titles literally translates to "Lake Death Room". Lol. Another reference to drowning in this ARG, it's definitely going to lead up to something.

Daniel refers to Meg as "they". Based. I LOVE the art and the voice acting in this. yall are doing great

Seeing that animation was my last straw....... I had to subscribe to you because this is amazing!!!!!!!!!!

[@trev3d]

Hate to say, but the dialogue isn't great. The script doesn't sound natural, and the delivery is a bit robotic. (The monologue during the instruction tape is fine tho)

[@suedonnym]

As a self-proclaimed writer, I kind of agree. I think it's one of those things that is supposed to be stilted, though. This ARG needs a tad better writing all round, tbh. But the renders and songs are great, so I don't mind.

[@suedonnym]

nvm I finished the video this dialogue sucks

@@suedonnym everything else about this series is great, but this video and the last video were both pretty bad when it came to characters having a conversation

[@suedonnym]

@@trev3d They seem to excel at everything except naturally moving the story forward. It's one of the less believable ARGs I've seen. But again, there's good stuff there.

Some things I noticed 1. The hand in the animations is similar to the cursor in Mario 64 2. The buttons that are being cleaned are the power and the reset buttons 3. The cartoon of Dan seems to make him look pretty mean. Perhaps the artist also doesn’t like Dan very much? Also, he is the only cartoon to have color. 4. Another speaker shows up, who we know to be Dan, because the narrator calls him Daniel 5. Dan talks about Eric’s fear of water, which we already know from the community posts 6. The most not having water could be the inspiration for the most losing its water in the final game 7. The narrator mentions “game sync,” which seems to be the personalization software. Interestingly, there seems to be an option to turn it off. 8. Dan says, “it’s wasn’t him or that kid in the animations or something.” I’m not entirely sure what that means, but I believe that it implies that Dan used a child for making the animations, including the drowning animation. Dan denies this afterwards, almost like he didn’t mean to mention the kid earlier. 9. We learn that Meg and Eric are currently working in the same building 10. Meg shows up, and she is very worried about the whereabouts of Eric 11. Meg’s personality matched her personality in the community posts. 12. The description has a lot more details than the last one. They say that they don’t remember who the narrator was, so I suppose he is an unimportant character. They also mention that they are still on the move. All in all, this was very fun. We got voice confirms for Meg, and some insight into what it was like working and play testing at the SM64 development team. This video has some less details than the last one, but I still really enjoyed over-analyzing it.

Was the Ultra 64 a game console or a kind control device? At this point I’m really leaning on the latter. This is becoming a lot more than just Mario 64. I hope the best for you, Meg and Eric.

[@therealkelso518]

Ultra 64 was the dev codename for the N64
