Hi
First
How about no
no
A horror ARG that deals with how the "protagonist's" actions affected his remaining family is super cool. I love how Nils isn't driven mad or forced down the same path as his father. Instead he learned from what he did and committed himself to being a better father to his own kids. Also the fact that he doesn't forgive his father, but he is willing to talk to him?
This whole ARG just feels a lot more mature than other ones I know, and not in the "adult" blood and gore sense, but rather that Nils feels likes a realistic person trying to get over the trauma of his sister's early death and his father's neglect. You could even take the supernatural elements as a metaphor and have the whole thing just be about Nils' journey to accepting the bad things in his childhood and moving on from them.
It's refreshing to have a story with such a mature and, actually, kinda uplifting ending.
You hit the nail on the head. I do wish there were more games like that but I don't know any unfortunately.
Fr, a story about trying to revive the dead and an intelligent game AI that DOESN'T end with a demon or a serial killer? In 2024? This story is so refreshing
Your quotation marks are wrong. It is only him being the protagonist that is debatable, not that the actions are his. Therefore it should be “The “Orotagonist”’s actions”
It's crazy how a ARG can have a happy ending.
Put it into words better than I ever could, mate! Seeing realistic reactions from fictional characters in a horror story around humans and their grief is so nice to see, since I feel a lot of writers (in general, not just in the horror or ARG genre) kind of lose that, which is hard to capture, so it makes sense. Seeing someone do that feels like a really strong and solid writing feat. :)
I feel like the imagery of the scarecrow taking the body in the first game shows that the mother ended up taking her off life support, which is a brutal and tough decision. I think that's how their marriage broke apart with his hatred of her tough decision.
Ohhhh, that makes sense now!
oh dang, that actually fits in to the lore really well.
Would explain why he saw her as a monster further, from his perspective she was taking away his children.
That's a keen thought! '👏 Seems legit! 👌
Y'know, when Matt announced he retired, I thought of that one scene in KP1 where Master Oogway gives away his staff to Shi Fu. Now I realize, it's more accurate that Matt gave away an infinite tower of worksheets and sticky notes to Tom instead of a wisdom staff.
"This is your problem now" 😂
Stack paper high enough and it'll resemble a staff to someone. This is Tom's staff to bear.
MatPat: *drops years worth of theories, lore, facts and evidence* This is your problem now, I’M OUT!!!
Tom, Lee, Santi, and Amy: Ayo what the fu-
Ei cara , bela foto
It was an emotional moment when MatPat announced his retirement. But now, seeing him on RUclips here and there is kind of confusing. Why is he still on Game Theory anyway? What's the point of retirement? I thought he was done with RUclips and ready to move on-to be a father and husband, to be a fan, to be a random theorist on the internet like us. But here he is, still on Game Theory or GTLive. I don't know.

“Suffer! Suffer! Suffer! Suffer!”

Wow. I'm so close to 50k subs

Never needed it to return we need a Mario 64 theory
Fr we waited 3 years for this video and now Matpat isn't even here 😭
@V-e6b can you shut up?
this video was pretty catastrophe.. haha get it??
@@Cheese-wj3qv replying to them makes it even worse
To me as an Aussie, the coloured 'crows' actually look pretty instantly recognisable as a galah and two lorikeets. Maybe he moved to Australia to get away from his past?
I think the other two being colorful is more symbolic of getting away from a dark past into a vibrant new life as opposed to any literal locations or birds.
That would make sense, as the desert level map is shaped like Australia, so maybe Marta left Germany and moved to Australia with Nils.
I guarantee this wasn't intentional, but they are nearly identical to two melanistic rainbow lorikeets 😭
The indirect puzzle solving of the CANCER character was so crazy. Connecting dots instead of finding an answer is my favorite part of ARGs.
Even without the brain scan getting reverse image searched, the game itself well hints at it: an object replicating uncontrollably until the game crashes. Sounds like the video game version of cancer, where cells replicate uncontrollably until the host dies.
MatPat really wants Tom to suffer through everything he had to go through 😂😂
E
@V-e6b oh please no one cares
Matpat turning into rammatra: SUFFER AS I HAVE
“You must suffer… like I have” -MatPat probably

MY HAMILTONN SIRENS ARE GOING OFF 🚨
Manfred demonising his wife as well as the image of Thea being taken away by the scarecrow always made me think that maybe Marta was the one to take their daughter off life support. It wouldn't be uncommon for brain cancer patients to end up brain dead due to intracranial swelling and be on life support despite having no way of recovering. Maybe he never forgave his wife for withdrawing support as he was never able to process that his daughter was dead.
DUDE!! YOU MIGHT BE ONTO SOMETHING!!!
Mat and ash: “suffer suffer suf-“
Tom: “(sigh) here we go again “
Well now he had to shove and rub his way through this theory (iykyk)
@Joseph_1441wtf
@@goob12309🤨
@goob12309 To anyone that doesn't understand, in the GTLive videos of Catastrophe Crow MatPat said he was "shoving and rubbing" against everything incase of secret rooms.
@@goob12309lol yea (iykyk) 😅

Consider the narrator.
Originally, you were given the story through the eyes of Manfred, depicting others the way he saw them.
Now, you're given the story from Nils' perspective, depicting others the way he saw them.
Neither view is "the truth."
"The truth" lies somewhere in between.
Manfred viewed his wife as an obstacle to his progress in resurrecting his daughter, and saw Nils as assisting her in her obstruction.
Nils was separated from Manfred as a boy and had his mother's perspective impressed onto him as he was raised.
He likely only really remembers his sister getting sick, her passing, his father being stricken by grief, and leaving with his mother.
Everything else he "remembers" about the events were stories from his mother, heavily influencing what he *perceives* to be the truth, but is not.
Kind of an extremely obvious thing to overlook, and pretty scummy to accept one unreliable narrator's perspective but disregard the other's as the lies of some monster.
A father desperately tries to make his family whole again after a tragedy befalls them, albeit misguidedly, his wife leaves and takes his remaining child with her, leaving him alone with his grief that turns into resentment before he spirals downward into the darkness.
The son grows up separated from his father, his memories of him slowly replaced with memories of stories of him, and eventually creates a new version of his father's game, altering it to fit *his* perspective and tell the story as he "remembers" it.
Finally, a crow 64 video!!!
Real
@Joseph_1441 REPORTING YOU
Finally a comment like this!!
was about to say that!
WHAT ARE THESE REPLIES DAWG😭😭😭
OMG we waited three years and it’s finally happening boys
…..maybe petscop has hope
I feel you bro, they're never finishing that last petscop theory
We can only dream
Nothing weird about these replies at all
@@badlydrawnsonic definitely not
@@badlydrawnsonicextremely normal and unconcerning replies😁😁😁😁
This is so refreshing.
Something that has a sort of final, actual conclusive end with closure.
Poppy and FNAF and Banban feels like these forever horrors, nothing is ever answered or solved. Nothing feels good. It's this nebulous fog of maybe's that will never end.
This was good.
Agreed - the downside of turning these sorts of stories into a whole franchise like with FNAF and the rest, instead of keeping it an effective one-off, is that the in-story suffering and horrors can never truly be allowed to end if you want to keep it relevant, so the audience never gets that catharsis.
There's something about ARGs being officially ended and "solved" after years that just feels so satisfying
Crows, and other corvids, are some of the smartest animals - they pass the mirror test, have a grasp of fluid displacement principles, and the New Caledonian Crow can even use basic tools!
we need to teach them how to build. We just need to make an island only for crows, give them building supplies, and check back in 20 years. I want crow city to happen.
Crows are also strongly associated with grief.
Thanks for telling me potato mine
@@DrDolphina Or how about...Crow Country?
@@sootsprite6407 GOOD IDEA.
Hear me out, in the original game where the 2 scarecrows come to your character after you fall down the stairs, it was supposed to represent Marta and Nils coming to check if Thea was ok. Manfred still saw Marta and Nils as monsters, but he was atleast able to accept the fact they were trying to check on Thea to make sure she was ok.
I remember just binging like every episode of this in one day and then just forgetting about it

One heck of a reply section here
Im glad that even though he wasn't going to forgive him, he still talked to his father. I feel that a lot of games, and storys in general tend to push this idea that if you don't forgive someone you hold a grudge against them.
16:30 Congratulations! Your Nils has evolved into Matpat!
as a parent my kid getting cancer is about the most devastating thing i can imagine... this one really instantly tugs at the heartstrings.
Is your child cancerous?? o~o
Ngl I gasped and clapped my hands like a toddler when I saw this title, FINEALLY a continuation of one of my fav theories
@ZNTPSIGUE well I dident ask for you to reply but here we are. I’m guessing ur in a bad mood due to life events, or mental issues, if so I wish you the best of luck
Me too I looked at the title and flapped by hands and clapped. I'm so happy there is a new part!!
same! literally few days ago I was thinking of rewatching the first theory video from years ago, since it's my fav.. I immediately felt so happy seeing the notification! and surprised too, since I'm not online that often to hear the news of a new game coming up
@V-e6bno, no kids usually can’t! And wanna know what else is just a number? 911.
It's kinda interesting how prevalent the trope of reviving dead children is in these types of media.
Just to name a few, there's Crow 64, Amanda the Adventurer, only cans, and every haunted animatronic in FNAF
Reviving the dead is the oldest human dream I think. Every single religion promises a version of it.
I'm so happy that I finally get an update to the theory that I straight up refused to attempt to solve on my own
Same lol
It’s back! After 4 years! dude *XAI96K* is the best thing you said, well done
strong movement on this!!
xAI is doing a great job

Tom: *Sigh,*Hear we go again.
Me: Yeah. 😐

I did.
The INTERLOPER ARG has been going on for 3 years and it's still not solved. Please cover INTERLOPER. It fits Game Theory since it is about source engine games, but it's not cheap "Dark Room on GM Construct" horror. It's genuinely the most well made ARG I've ever seen. Please cover it.
Wouldn’t that be more Film Theory? You can’t play it.
@@redactedtomits would then be kinda petscop? It wasnt playable but was covered here, but idk
@@redactedtom You can play it, sorta. Anomi made the demos public and you can play them and explore. The Tuesday manifest is being explored as we speak, and you need to actually play a source game to access them, so I think it's game theory.
Also the subject matter is the source game engine, which means game theory is most appropriate.
@@Blopp1878 The demos from the tuesday manifest are all playable and have secrets still. Someone literally found the Mona I think.
@@redactedtom No
Chanting suffer. Of course he wants to make sure Tom goes crazy just like he did
IDK why, But 18:40 when father crow transcends beyond realities is very hilarious for some reason...
I'm a bit concerned about my mental health
"Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"
BRAINROT, YAAAAY!!!
3:50 “Thea” translates to “Crow” in crow language.
I don't know if anyone has ever talked about it, but a cool detail I realised is that the mothers name sounds like martyr, which is what she was. Her reputation was martyred during Manfred's obsession within the game
The Hamilton insert made the theater nerd in me so happy
The way they chanted “Suffer”
SUFFER SUFFER SUFFER SUFFER SUFFER SUFFER SUFFER SUFFER!
Man sorry for your comment getting spammed by bots 😭
Let's watch him S U F F E R
SUFFER! SUFFER! SUFFER! SUFFER! SUFFER! SUFFER!

Petition to engrave "Let's watch him suffer" on Tom's grave.
I genuinely gasped when I saw the thumbnail and I had to restrain myself from yelling "THEY FIGURED IT OUT?!" to prevent worrying my family.
9:58 i deadass thought it was gonna be tumor, and then realised its a 5 letter word
i mean, theres entirely still a chance, depending on what english they're using.
since the game is german-based, it's reasonable to believe that they might use UK english, in which case, tumour would fit :)

death being one of the most normal and common things in the world being censored drives me crazy

Crow 64 is the the type of arg that they solve then make a new one that debunks the older one
17:41 this part reminds me of that one help wanted level in curse of dreadbear, it’s the one were the nightmares appear at the doors and they looking side to side
Im so excited to finnaly see this solved (I haven’t watched it completely yet) but since mat firs covered it I was excited to see it.
Also Ash and Mat yelling “suffer suffer suffer” at Tom was everything.
The avatar in the original just glitching out like that when they fall down the stairs, it makes sense. The avatar twitches and convulses, like its having a seizure.
4:58 no give me the explanation while i eat im too dumb for that

Not sure if anyone has noticed but at 6:58 there is a typo on the bottom of the screen where it says “save” instead of “safe”. I know this is probably a complete nothing-burger, but it would be funny to me if this typo somehow plays into one of MatPats ARG projects he’s working on

@ZNTPSIGUE You replied 3 times.
No one asked you to be brought into this world bot
Oh my god Ive actually been waiting for this one, everytime I think about ARGs this one pops into my head
I personally think the message saying “You drowned twice and you’ve died every year” has to do with the creator of Catastrophe Crow 64. I’m thinking he may have faked his death one year and then disguised himself as a new guy. I imagine the same happened again one year later. Considering the message says “You’ve drowned twice and you’ve died every year”. That has to be what the message means.
