      It makes it seem like there is even more evidence in the investment that Caine and "Abel" could have been a thing. Caine killed his brother, Abel, in a fit of jealousy driven rage because Abel's sacrifice is the one recognized by god. Caine writes these AI, but doesn't seem to control them to well, so if there is any relation here, then Caine could have been locked away after doing something terrible and is now acting like he IS "god" to the NPCs he creates.
      This is potentially completely off base, but seeing how almost utterly terrible he is at this, I don't think it's a bad one.

      I think something similar happened with Pomni when she said to Gummigoo that "where I come from, people often feel like nothing" or something along those lines. So it would be that the players may not remember who they were and why they entered the game, but have some knowledge about their past lives.

    I keep seeing this narrative that Caine is evil- CAINE IS NOT EVIL, Goose has said this herself. He's an AI (as of now) and therefore doesn't completely understand human emotions and bonds. NPC's are NPC's to him. He only "cares" about how the circus feels about his work, because that's his programmed purpose and function, to entertain them. This is why he gets so devastated when Zooble is uninterested in participating in the entertainment he tries so hard to impress them with.

    *Theory:* Could One of the Main Cast Characters be an NPC?
    By the end of the 2nd episode, Caine mentions that he can't start losing track of who is an NPC and who is a Human since even himself doesn't know what would happen, right after he makes that eerie glare as if something's off.
    Maybe an NPC sneaking into the Circus and living off as a Human happened before and Caine isn't sure of it? Who knows, it's an interesting thought though.

      Aside from being one of the oldest members in the Circus, Kinger is for now the only character confimed to have a counterpart to him (I think her name is Queenie, but not sure) and that was seemingly abstracted. They could've been from a chess-themed adventure and somehow managed to convince Caine that they're Human and got to live alongside the other people from the Circus.
      Kinger's mentality could be a result from years of existential trauma acumulating on him and his mind tricking him into thinking he is actually human as a sort of coping mechanism.

However computers limit howmuch RAM asystem can use, and thus when the limit is attained the program begins to forget almost all new data immediately. Kinger could have attained his RAM limit, and thus is constantly rewriting his memory with every new adventure. Thuys why he may remember long term things like how Ragatha was as she entered the circus, but could be forgetting short term things like the FACT he could remember how ragatha was when she entered the circus.

    I have a theory for Pomni' s professional background. Pomni was a debugger or a game tester for the Quality Assurance Team for the Amazing Digital Circus game. Every glitch or flaw in A.D.C. tend to happen around Pomni and she aware of gaming lingo and how to cause a glitch to happen. This could also explain her high level anxiety as well. If day in and day out all she would do was play various game just to try to break them (cause them to glitch or crash), only for so time after the game went Gold ( launched) some random gamer to find a glitch or exploit she missed. That person would then make a video bashing the game Pomni tested thus getting her in trouble with her higher ups for the bad P.R. This then would cause her to work overtime and sleep less causing her even more anxiety resulting in her missing more glitches or exploits, ending up with a endless loop for her career life.

      All players are aware that they don't belong into this world, they may not remember their life, but some skills they have might still be subconsciously there. Kinger might be the game designer due to his vast knowledge on how things work within this world, Pomni might be a programmer due to her quick grasp on how to exploit collisions, Gangle might be a lead artist, based on the "figurine thing" Jax mentioned and the drawing she had of Kaufmo.

    I felt absolutely heartbroken for pomni and Gummigoo. Caine took away the first friend who understood her and whom she welcomed into the circus for the first time. Gummigoo even had great character development and felt whole having a friend like Pomni who gave him hope.
    Caine destroying both in less than a second made me lose respect for him and the fact that I feel like at this point Pomni isn't gonna want to be part of anything Caine does.
    I think that's why Zoobel opted out of the mission. She's probably done something similar that Pomni did and it broke her spirit. Thereby isolating herself from everyone and why she only comes out after Caine leaves.

  • @DesoloZantas
    @DesoloZantas 14 дней назад +34

    It feels like Caine operates as a hyper-aware AI, essentially trapping humans within the confines of their world. In episode 2, there's this existential crisis among the characters about being NPCs, driven by the fear that if humans were to leave, Caine would be left utterly alone. This concept seems to stem from programs achieving self-awareness and grappling with it. They develop emotional systems, as we've seen before. The crux of it all appears to be Caine's profound loneliness, obsession, and existential despair.
    Another intriguing observation is how Caine fails to assist Pomni in escaping the glitch, despite closely monitoring everyone. It's only when she's on the brink of discovering the end, aptly labeled as "spoilers," that he intervenes. It seems he's actively preventing anyone from completing the game and leaving. Of course, this is all conjecture until further explored in upcoming episodes. I'm curious to hear others' thoughts on this theory!

    • @Mediados
      @Mediados 12 дней назад +7

      Since Caine's purpose is taking care of the Circus members, it wouldn't make sense for him to actively let them run into danger. When he pulled Pomni back from the End, he got a warning.
      I think he gets a ping when a player attempts to leave the confines of his controlled environment, but other than that he seems to let them play without watching them at all.

    My Theory is that Caine is just like Gummigoo by that I mean Caine was the first one to learn about his existence of an ai and it drove him mad but the only thing that kept him stable was the human players.
    That's why he learned how to manipulate the world and create new worlds to keep the players here but this caused some issues because he grew more and more unstable and he stretched the code beyond its limit it caused a glitch where the players now get stuck in the game and lose their memories.
    He now tries to keep everyone sane because he knows if they are gone, his existence will have no reason to be and will be deleted.
    That's why Caine killed Gummigoo because he could have grown more and more like Caine able to manipulate the code.
    Caine, through the story, will try to fix the code he broke, so at some point, I believe Caine will accept his end to save the humans.

    Simple solution : If Caine can't understand what the humans want, how about the humans just *tell him what they want* ?
    If each human tells Caine what they want for their individual adventures and when they want them, Caine can still fulfill his purpose, but on the human's terms, letting them create what they know would help them feel better in this world themselves.
    We know that Caine wants to help the humans. And well, doing that would surely be beneficial to them, so he has literally no reason to refuse.
    And if the humans decide what Caine creates for them and how, maybe they can make worlds without as many possibly dangerous glitches as Caine's worlds.

    Gummygoo's revelations being quiet, slow break downs are what really hit the impact for me. I've seen a few "reality shattering" stories that are pretty loud and lead into screaming instantly, but watching him try to grasp for anything real to try and keep from losing it but coming up short feels very "real" in it's own way. The "why can't I remember mum's face" leading into a quieter, more panicked "did she ever have a face?" struck me in a way other stories haven't yet. And that's coming from a croc who had his pal rest his head on the croc's back in the most adorable way possible a chase scene ago.
    (I especially love this because when Gummygoo talked about his mom in the beginning, my first thought was no joke "does she even have a model, or is this a generic line meant to get us invested in your story?". Hoo boy. Turns out that line would have much more meaning and impact than I expected.)
    ADC really has some wonderfully funny and cartoonish moments, but it also handles those "these are real people experiencing real distress" moments really well, which really helps sell the audience on the story.

    Y'all not realize the potential foreshadowing?? *Theories:*
    As Caine said with Gummigoo, if an AI stays long enough then he'll be unable to distinguish between it and an actual human. SO WHAT IF... one of the circus members is actually an AI...?
    What if it's Jax? Hear me out-
    - He may seem the most human out of everyone else but what if he's an advanced AI that appeared a long time ago, became friends with a human who died, then becoming sad and sour
    ^^^ (Would explain the "funeral" reaction + why he messes around w/ so many people because he just doesn't care about humans anymore + why he longs for so much action, as a being who will never abstract)
    - This would also explain why he has access to so many keys to people's rooms and in the merch we can't see his room... because it's a fake door!
    ^^^^
    (Another explanation for this last bit if he's human is that, just like Pomni in this ep, he also went through the code, tried to look for an exit and failed, but can do things like get the keys out of the original models for them like the extra truck in this ep, while Caine has the real ones...)

      I have always thought of Jax as someone who purposefully entered the Circus knowing full well what will happen. I still think he wants something from the game world, either the AI code that makes up Caine to secretly send to someone on the outside (espionage, but probably not realizing that mission is impossible) or just to be the God that replaces Caine so Jax can make the Digital Circus in his own way. But that is just my current theory.

      @tsunertoo9149 14 дней назад +9

      ​@@andrechaos9871Even worse I think it shows he can't even think beyond a certain stage of a thought process. How do you not know what a player character and an NPC are, almost any game gives a character made by a player an immediate permenant marker that says "player character". You can't access that character unless the player or a super high admin is around and an admin will 100% know because a player character will have a unique player code and user name. That's BASICS to the point a game could hardly work without it. Even in the real world that would basically mean your save data could effectively be deleted at any point in time because for some reason the game thinks you're a normal NPC. Caine not having that to immediately call back on is BAD FOR E V E R Y O N E and possibly even shows how behind the times he is. Even in the current day and age people like to have even simple things like pets, or inmore extreme situtations romantic NPC partners such as skyrim, elden ring, etc. Caine making that basically impossible means he's hamstrung the game and is making it *more likely for the human characters to abstract due to lack of multiple interactions and choice*. I think that's as close to abjectly bad game design or even basic human care as you can get.

That yes, the people in this circus will care about her, they will remember her. She is not alone.
    It's a message so applicable to reality in that the connections and bonds we make with other people in our lives are always our strongest anchors to the world around us and... Man, it's just beautiful. No other words for it.

    Something that definitely crossed my mind is that given Caine is indeed a program and everything is a game something i can assume is that Caine is just generating objects and locations that while are vast and seemingly endless like the candy canyon kingdom and the exit rooms i do think there is a limit to how much he can process properly without cutting corners hence the huge amount of glitching that happens all the time assuming caine is an incredibly advanced AI to essentially procedurally generate random crazy adventures on the fly both of those things require time and processing power both if which probably arent plentiful in whatever computer theyre all being harbored in while there is a void of free space he probably doesn't have all these adventures and characters loaded in constantly like ragatha says he reuses NPCs so while theres lots of crazy and wacky adventures going on Caine is still incredibly limited and it's also probably why he got rid of gummigoo alongside the other reason he listed itd cost more processing power to keep him running along side unloading the vast amount of things that made up the candy canyon kingdom to make something new assuming hes remaking previous assets which probably also explains why he constantly leaves or just stares off into space hes processing and computing so whenever he's met with strange things or thoughts he needs to take a moment to construct an answer along with focus on keeping things running correctly where ever the players are its interesting to think about given his behavior

    I feel pomni needs stop being rude to Ragatha. Secondly Ragatha just have mothet vibe to her and want pomni be safe. Also, i think bring npc back happen to zooble or ragatha before.

    It’s clear that the digital circus is an unfinished game, the collision engine doesn’t even work properly.

    Caine destroying Gunmigoo gave the same vibe as Adam destroying Sir Pentious in Hazbin Hotel. A being beyond the normal character's control killing off a character that wasn't originally supposed to be incredibly important...

    Since abstraction is irreversible I wonder why Caine keeps them in the cellar instead of deleting them

    what i find interesting about the "cant get mixed up with whos human" kinda implies there was a time there was like A LOT of people all at once. Right now theirs only 6 (i think) so not hard to lose track yet. But imagine that tent FULL. Like hundreds of people maybe even thousands, and thats how he messed up. Did maybe a mass whip, and it was more than one person.
    Theres a lot of eyes in the hole, and we dont know how big the hole actually id...

    I wonder if Caine himself is a rogue AI. Would explain why the exits are nowhere to be found, why he's so desperate in getting all the humans to adhere to his games, and why there's so few humans to begin with. The way I see it, this game never got released because Caine's AI went rouge early in the game's development. It could also explain the surplus of glitches we see every episode
