As a Brazilian, "saudade" has a very complex meaning. It can be, in a short explanation, the feeling of missing something/someone, but it's not only that. It's the sadness you have because something happened and won't happen again, but also the joy of having experienced that, wishing you could do that again. There's also the term "saudosista", someone who is very deep in that feeling, focused on the sweet moments of the past in a way that's not healthy. 😅

[@save_bandit]

Okay so longing/nostalgic

[@rotinasemroteiro]

@@save_bandit yeah, it has a lot of nostalgia in it, the only difference is that we use the word nostalgia as a synonym for memory without the feelings attached to it necessarily, while saudade is that nostalgia with everything you feel about it, the good and the bad things. lol

@@rotinasemroteiro nostalgia is not a synonym for memory and it has all to do with feelings though

@@save_bandit I know that but, as I said, here we use it referring to the feelings or not and also it can have different feelings attached to it, like in many cases it's just people saying that something old was cool at the time or that seeing something from their childhood/teens makes them feel old and that's it, without necessarily feeling saudade about it.

[@3squared45]

I actually like that its so convoluted with many unexplained bits of lore. It makes it feel more mysterious to me. I think its totally possible for the creators to expand on those in the future! Plus, it gives more room for fams to speculate and come up with theories. (Im also the kind of guy who just really loves that style of complicated storytelling though, so personal taste.) I think its totally possible we could get plot twists or new information revealed on the unexplained mysteries. Just because a character is dead, doesnt mean they cant have an impact on the story. I love stories that start out with a character dying and the reader being thrust into a confusing situation, only to find out the backstory of the deceased and have it slowly fall into place. Also, ideas about flesh robot: 1. Could be a machine with flesh as some of its parts. A gear is a gear whether its made of steel, iron, or wood. I can totally imagine a contraption that incorporates human tendons to control its movement and lumps of flesh as a protective outer casing. The big question is: Why did he choose this material over others, especially when its so costly to maintain? Perhaps he made the monster in order not to waste the excess parts of his victims, since the only part he himself seems to need is the soul. Maybe he needs so many souls, the flesh just kinda piled up and he was like "ok how can i use this... i know! flesh robot!" #resourcefulqueen 2. I can see a few ways having the monster as an ally would be advantageous to him. He might use it because it has more raw power than he currently possesses, or because it can allow him to operate in two separate places at once. Maybe the monster is another required part of the ritual he wants to undertake. Side note - was I the only one who kinda got trans vibes? The writing in the wall saying he wants to discard his body really reminded me of gender dysphoria. I wouldnt want that to ever be confirmed by the creators bc itd be super problematic, but as a trans person myself, I kind of feel seen by this headcanon.

[@phoenixfritzinger9185]

I’m not sure if this is related, but I think motoprincess’s username was based on a song from a TripleS. TripleS is a k-pop group one of the creators is a stan of. The song is about someone running away from their sadness with lyrics like “show me more clues of the future”, and “do you think about me too?” which I think hints at the person running away and going missing with the lead of someone else. It can also be interpreted as someone looking for someone, either looking for them, or even running away to find them. I think the story of Lana is based on this song, because it fits her story perfectly. It’s a bit of a reach, but it’s possible.

On the official discord, Gigi also said Dress To Impress was inspired by LE SSERAFIM’s song Eve, Psyche and the Bluebeard’s Wife from the lyric “Fearless, say yes, we don't dress to impress”

[@marandaranda]

You’ve been STANDING THIS WHOLE TIME the dedication

[@haleyc.3530]

Please do an sequel to this video, I want to learn more about the lore now that there’s been an update but I dont want to learn it directly, I want to specifically learn it second hand through your videos LOL

[@tylociraptor8131]

Can I just point out that according to their profile, the creator of this game and ARG is a SIXTEEN YEAR OLD GIRL!? WHAT!?! I'm so happy to see not only young creators but young WOMEN creators out here making names for themselves. I'm not a roblox player, because I am almost 40 years old, but I am amazed with how much KIDS are able to make on that site. Absolutely astonishing.

[@SamoyedSagas]

Kids arent really making that much, they get a paltry amount while the big wigs behind Roblox rake in the dough. Its honestly disgusting and young kids should be spending their time in other games that dont exploit them for free labor

[@TheBigJayAgenda]

Ugh ew? They're kids. Not young women.

[@bishielurfer]

​​@@SamoyedSagas pretty sure they meant much how much content, not how much money. And while I have a lot of problems with roblox, players being able to make content is how sandbox games work. Minecraft is similar.

[@save_bandit]

​@@TheBigJayAgendato be fair, they did say kids too, but I agree that 16 is not a young woman, they're a teenager

[@KOTEBANAROT]

@@TheBigJayAgenda i can just tell you have a tumblr and a lot of voltron shipping opinions

I love the background filled with collectibles. Especially the Draculaura doll ❤

[@beelieve7993]

I have been waiting for someone to do a video on this!! The kids I babysit try to explain the lore to me but theyre 6 and 11 so it’s a bit confusing 😭

[@tabimomeyer2515]

wait are you telling me you’ve been STANDING in all of your videos??? i just assumed you’d been sitting the whole time 😭😭

[@thatoneperson1436]

I never fully got the dti lana lore but now watching this it is giving old roblox myths. This story and stuff is exactly what old roblox myth groups used to do and I hope because of dti all that stuff will make a comeback it was so good

[@InfiniteFur]

Back in what I remember as 2017-2019 Roblox, Roblox myths were a huge thing in the community. I love devs keeping the tradition alive of scaring children and making stories.

[@superriso08]

NOW I CAN FINALLY UNDERSTAND THE MELLY VUONG DTI ANIMATION 😭😭😭😭😭 all the comments were like "omg she knows the lana lore" but NO ONE EXPLAINED ANYTHING ABOUT IT

[@tombradshaw1378]

"fit so good I had to go into the meat room to hide" will now be something I quote on the regular, thank you Izzzyzzz

[@dru1dbottles]

This was so cool! And this was made by *teenagers?* That's insane and I'm so, so impressed! I love subtle ARGs like this. Like, the fact that someone could play Dress to Impress and never encounter the horror shit is so fascinating to me. It really does make it feel like a labour of love, the developers putting so much effort into something people might never even notice.

[@The-Busy-Beeeee]

I think it’s been taken out of the game now unfortunately I’ve tried seeing the Lana ghosts and meat room but it’s not there

[@Llgyuun.mp4]

physically screamed when i saw this OH MY GOD IZZY GOES OVER THE DTI LORE?????? I'VE BEEN INTO THIS SINCE LAST MONTH OMG I BASICALLY KNOW ALMOST EVERYTHING 😭💔 dti obsessed rn

this story is completely insane and incomprehensible but it makes me so happy that its teenagers creating complex and interesting stories, involving others, and being creative and expressive. what a bunch of badasses

[@catmerchant8699]

yeah, but i don’t think it should be praised as genius or something

[@The-Busy-Beeeee]

@@catmerchant8699yea but it’s much better than a lot of what other folk can do

Hey, at least this is better than urbanspook.

[@trillian7590]

Have I ever played DTI? No. Will I watch this whole video? Absolutely.

[@very.unknowing]

i love how they just make videos for literally EVERYONE like i just realized how like safe this community feels and like the little judgement there is on these niche subjects(only seen yt community correct me if im wrong)

[@raelogan]

And here I just thought the game was glitching because I have a janky rural internet connection This is why I can't be a protagonist in an EXE Creepypasta.

[@TimmHenson]

HUGE REVEAL... Standing the whole time?!! WHAT!?? Even when she threw the phone?!

[@Arcadian-Nova]

agamemnon isnt the only greek name within this story, Alatheia is also a figure of greek mythology, the personification of Truth.

[@F66x]

I'm glad the kids are learning their vocabulary words and Greek mythology, even if it's from Roblox.

[@jamiehendrix2568]

Its so funny to me that the developer clearly wanted to put in all these elements to get people interested in the arg, only for so much of the playerbase to seemingly go "not interested, thanks, i just want to dress up"

[@kmcnugget]

First off: this is so hilarious as a spinoff of Dress to Impress of all things! I don't know if you will see this but: something that might help you tie more stuff together is the TTRPG/videogames Vampire the Masquerade (VTM). It came out in the early 2000s and is peak that-era edginess. What stuck out to me is that your adventuring party is called a Coterie and the plot often revolves around coterie members having hidden motives. Then, a "herd" is another term in the series! A group who offer their blood to a powerful vampire. The theme colours are soooo red and black as well. This series does the whole "biblical character Cain is the first vampire" and a lot of Greek and other myths come into things. Helen of Troy is a vampire in the series lmao - Agamemnon's name coming from the same myth. The body parts stuff feels like an offshoot of Clan Tzimisce from VTM, a clan of evil vampires who are flesh crafting warlocks basically. I feel like the creators of the ARG might be fans of VTM at least? Might be a longshot but might also tie some of the more confusing stuff together 😂

[@cosmicmousse]

A follow-up would be interesting. Not heard of this before but I'd like to know where it goes from here.

[@Br3rry.hellaverse]

Here after Gigi got exposed, I’m exited for the videos in 10 years where ppl break down the history of dti

[@caprituna]

BRO YOU WERE RECORDING HALF-AN-HOUR-LONG VIDEOS WHILE STANDING??? INSANE

[@LordOfElysium]

Why?

[@isopodchan87]

​@LordOfElysium it seems Unnecessarily exhausting

[@LordOfElysium]

@@isopodchan87 Lots of people like to work standing, my father always does when he works from home, so I get it-

[@veggiewurld]

42:41 in some iterations of the story Artemis replaced Agamemnon's daughter, Iphigenia, with a deer before she was sacrificed so he killed the deer instead and Iphigenia was brought to one of Artemis' temples, if i remember it correctly

[@kingofravens215]

I love that Greek mythology has made its way into this story I’ve been a huge nerd for it for years!

[@andrewphilos]

I'm just imagining someone who just plays it for the dressup game, has no idea about the ARG, and then one day the nail salon worker gets replaced in the game and everyone loses their mind. XD
