    • THE AMAZING DIGITAL CI...
    So far I can guess the game was made in the 90's and Pomni may have been an employee or contractor for a company with a hidden agenda behind a cursed virtual reality game. What an amazing Pilot episode I look forward to following Glitch and this new series. Can Pomni escape this game?

    The thing with the exit is that Caine did actually create it because he wants to appease the others, but notice he said he "didn't know what to put on the other side." He doesn't understand that they want to exit the program and return to the real world, he's just making an exit door that leads to a new place that isn't the Digital Circus, but because he's an AI that's intrinsic to the Circus it's difficult for him to imagine anything outside of what he knows. That's why it's an unfinished work that he didn't want anyone to see

    I remember someone suggesting that maybe Caine describes the lake activity as “drowning yourself” because some of the people trapped tried to exit the game so to speak but he thought it was just an activity humans sometimes do for fun.

    @ShiningGurren 6 месяцев назад +57

    One of my theories is that Caine and the NPCs are legitimately incapable of harming the players. That's why Jax wasn't worried about Zooble but more importantly the cellar.
    The abstracted people are still technically people, thus Caine can't hurt them to stop them. So he just puts them where they can't hurt others.

    Couple of theories. They are not mine, but I subscribe to them
    1. Cain is meant to entertain Children for a couple of hours. Now he is trying to keep adults sane (seemingly) indefinitely.
    2. Cain stated that the only thing he has no control over are minds. This is possibly why he can't "fix" the Abstracted, but he can fix glitched characters
    3. The characters are only copies of personalities and not actually the humans they were. This is why there is no one in the headset at the end. The Copies believes that they used to be human.

      To that last point, that could very well be an influence from the _SigCorp_ series if Gooseworx is a fan. Wouldn't be too far out of the box considering the heavy _Stanley Parable_ influences he's discussed already.

    Ragatha is a doormat, pushed around and thrown to the side like a ragdoll.
    Jax kinda has a likeness to bugs bunny. A snarky jerk that plays into the slapstick.
    Zooble is a mental mess. Just like the abstract shapes.
    Gangle has got some sorta thing, either bipolar or just wears emotional masks all the time
    Kinger is in his own little world most of the time. The king of his own mental headspace that he spaces out in a lot.
    Pomni probably was the laughingstock most of the time. The unwilling jester of the office space.

  • @random3x70
    @random3x70 6 месяцев назад +119

    A theory I've seen that I rather like about Jax is, that he is actually trying to look out for everyone in his own way.
    As Ragatha said the adventures are to help keep them sane and he sends the two clearly more unstable members onto the adventure.
    When he knocks them down the hole he is doing it to protect them from Kaufmo.
    That he acts like an ass towards them, because anger at their situation can be a trigger for breaking so he gets them to focus their frustrations on him and his BS.

    One thing i kinda thought about, too, with Caines' design is that it reminded me of when you clip into a game characters face and their eyeballs and teeth remain. So, Caines' design could be a nod to him not being completely rendered? No face to mode off of for him?

Also, this has got to be the first time I see someone react to TADC and get censored by Caine (I know it's editing, but still), and I find it to be the funniest [BLEEP] I have seen in a while when it comes to a reaction video on a popular show or movie.

    caine is confirmed to be an AI, and he really does want to help them, but he lacks an understanding of how humans work. He has passive intentions but because he can't sympathise with them, he often misunderstands and does something that doesn't really help much at all 😭but you can see it with how, as ragatha explains, caine gives them little adventures to do in order to keep them from going insane. And during the end, caine apologises for lying about the exit, in which he talks about how he was trying to MAKE an exit for them, because he knew they wanted one, but doesnt have the ability to let them actually leave. Caine misunderstood what they meant, but at least he tried his best by attempting to make them an exit

      Also letting them have their own rooms and... trying... to give Zooble the chance to not partake in the day's adventure (as well as not really enforcing whether or not they even do the adventure, judging by his absence). Wouldn't have done that if the goal was to torture or be malicious to them.
      If anything it enhances the existential horror of this situation. Caine, for all the power he has in the digital world, is just as trapped as they are, and can only do so much to slow their inevitable descent into Abstraction...

And Pomni apparently is a word that means "Remember" in Russian and Bulgarian. Whether or not these will have any bearing on the show is going to have to be seen.

    I have the theory that the perfomers represent different personality disorders. Anxiety(pomni), fear(kingler), selfishness(jax), anger(kaufmo), etc. What if the headset was a technology that was supposed to help cure ppl of their debilitating personality disorders. Strap it on and instantly feel relief from your crippling issue. BUT what if the tech takes those negative aspects of your mind away and dumps them into the circus? That's why they have no memory. Also, it would lend itself to making the existential horror even worse because even with a route back to the real world, they've nowhere to go. 😱🙂
    Interesting things I've spotted.
    * Before the introduction song Caine mentioned "paraphernalia" that "we" would be seeing. That implies objects/items/things and yet what we end up watching is the trapped performers...
    * When Caines watch detected a player in the Void, he said "oh no, they'll be *spoiled*". That's a word used for perishable goods/food/products.....
    * When Jax said "she still thinks it's a dream", he was not talking to Ragatha. He was breaking the forth wall and talking to us....
    * The adventures aren't dangerous, but Kaufmo's abstracted form was as Zoobles fate barely bothered them but Kaufmo's was seen as a real danger. Re- Jax's reaction to the adventure compared to Kaufmo.
    *Caine isnt all-seeing because he had no idea what was going on to his circus or players, even abstraction, until Pomni entered the void. Then he still didnt know himself, his wacky watch alarm had to alert him.
    *Caine barely knows anything about the real world.... " *Drown* in the digital Lake,..... *ridery* at the digital fair" hint at that. If that's so how did he know what offices in the real world looks like? Maybe through the cameras in the place where the headset and computer are sitting? That also explains why the exit maze has "A" computer office room but is not "THE" computer office room. I dont think they are the same because Caine's had no windows or natural light but the one we come out of at the end has natural light streaming across the wall.
    * Other than the final corridor connected to the void the Exit Maze was totally stable, until Pomni's extreme reaction to the computer and headset started causing the lights to flicker on and off.... why then? 🤔
    Thoughts on "sad and weak" Gangle. With Gangle's masks. They both look fragile, and the comedy mask did break after a small drop.( in a little extra from Gooseworx, we see Gangle looking in a mirror with broken comedy masks all over the walls.) But when she was dragged into the Gloink hole her sad mask smashed into the ground, hard, but didn't even get a blemish on it.
    That implies that her "smile" is so very thin yes.... but that her core, and yes sad, self is a lot tougher than she looks. 🤔..😥💪...🤔
    Ok that's some of the stuff ive picked up on. Could it be meaningful or could mean nothing 😅

    One detail you probably didn’t notice in the last scene is the blinds; They’re torn up and tattered. As far as I know blinds don’t wear down easily, so for some of the shutters to be torn at the ends and even in the middle, they had to be sitting there for decades. You could be right about the office space where the computer is being an abandoned building, but we’ll never know until Glitch drops the next episode.

    Yeah VR headsets have existed for a really long time. The oldest I can think of is the Virtual Boy from 1995 even before the 3D game sphere had its Cambrian explosion with Mario 64 from 1996 being the catalyst to that explosion of 3D games. So a VR point and click adventure game for small children in the middle to late 90's is absolutely plausible. It would've been for insanely rich kids only but it's setting does make sense in our history.

    Considering abstractions make things glitch out on contact and seems to be a form of painful contagion, yeah that seems like a reasonable fear . . .

    I mean....it looks (intentionally) like a scrapped game or shovelware.
    Seems like the Cane AI was even done due to his many crashes, blue screens and overall glitchy behavior.
    It seems like the bare bones AI I would use to ensure my program RUNS with the AI.
    I don't think Cane is evil or even vindictive for making an "exit".
    He probably can't as the function wasn't even programmed in yet nor was the whole isekai thing intended. It seems like a VR bug that turned it into SAO and the game was scrapped once a buncha people got sucked in and the devs couldn't get them out.
    Hell, the circus folk might be the devs that got accidentally stuck in their own game.
    Kinger seems like the lead and everyone else seems like other team members.
    Hell, Pomni could be QA considering how "well" they're usually treated IRL.
    Edit: Cane seems to be like the "Director" AI from Left 4 Dead.
    Runs scenarios based on preset parameters and player reactions. Adaptable to a point within those preset parameters, but breaks down if no prior knowledge of a scenario happens. It's an AI that can react and adapt to players, but it seems like his programming was unfinished, so is just as lost as the "players" as this is unfamiliar territory, thus causing him to "crash" aka, not know what to do and try to adapt his programming to a situation he was never designed for even when completed.
    If my theory of the trapped in an unfinished game is correct, Cain CAN'T make an exit. It's a bug that trapped them here and he can't figure out how to fix it, given even his AI has limitations. He cannot seem to alter the source code, thus cannot fix the bug from the inside.
    Edit 2: The "exit" was probably his attempt to give the "players" a way to escape, but he couldn't as it's outside his programming. After being unable to make an exit, his AI probably went into maintenance mode to prevent abstraction, repeating the scenarios he was programmed for to keep the carnies from insanity.
    He's trying to keep the exit from people to prevent what happened to Pomni.
    Seeing the code. Seeing the computer screen. Seeing that they're trapped in a game with no escape. That no one is coming to rescue them. No one even knows they are stuck in there. That Pomni WAS that way out, but got sucked into the game like everyone else. That it was their imprisonment was their own fault. That their now "corpse" is right where they left it. On the desk, headset on, brain dead. Still alive but unable to scream. Unable to move. Slowly dying of dehydration and starvation. Watching it happen and unable to do anything. Watching yourself slowly die while being unable to do anything about it.
    There is no escape.
    There is no body to escape to.
    You can't leave because you're already dead.
    This is your afterlife. Your "soul" trapped here forever, doomed to abstract or spend eternity in this digital hellscape unable to die. You cannot kill what is already dead.

    like, he having a key for everyone's room? that is just a way of saying he has access to their room even if the original code said he wasn't supposed to have it, so probably he somehow has a way of explore their codes and change some things here and there to get his way

    Jax is fun. Hes a total jerk but he actually does more to help all the others.
    He suggested the adventure for pomni, he offered to go with pomni to get kaufmo, he threw kinger and gangle into the hole so they wouldn't be attacked by kaufmo and then kept quiet when he saw a gloink glitching out.
    He cares more than he says

    Gotta say it's awesome to see someone else with relevant experience to build off of here! I've been a software engineer for the better part of a decade now, and it's really fun watching another analytical mind work through the mysteries here. Especially in a very different way than I did!
    A very fun watch all around, I loved the insights you provided and the questions you asked along the way. Looking forward to more, here and (if I can make it) on Twitch!
    EDIT: I never saw Reboot, but I can at least speculate on those slug things being called Nulls!
    In code, "null" is a special value. It effectively means there's nothing there. But it's more than just a String being empty, i.e., "", or a number being zero. It's effectively a state that should not happen except under very specific circumstances.
    So if the characters became a Null, then it's like some code-breaking error occurred; like, going crazy, or losing their humanity.

      Omg...that means the abstract turned into nulls if I understand what you're saying about them.

    • @djmagichat1721
      @djmagichat1721 6 месяцев назад +2

      ​@@Dipperdog_RPGirl Possibly! Getting Abstracted could just be a different way of showing that someone went insane, but the core concept would still be the same.
      EDIT: I can't believe I didn't think of this before, but if you have the chance you should look up a thing known as a "null pointer exception." It's not really something programmers have to worry about anymore, thankfully, but back in the day (or if you're using certain older coding languages) these things were absolutely terrifying when they happened. As in, hitting one at my job would probably be justification for a 20-minute snuggle break with my dogs. All of my dogs. At the same time.
      Thankfully, I can only think of a couple things that have ever warranted that much panic. Even more thankfully, there's only one such technical issue currently an issue thanks to advances in technology.
      Less fortunately, I still encounter that one issue at my job once in a while. And my dogs always know when it's going on, and they preemptively start swarming my desk trying to calm me down again.

  • @drewo.127
    @drewo.127 2 месяца назад

    You might be onto something with Jax seeming all sus:
    If I recall correctly, Gooseworx, the creator/director/overall showrunner of Digital Circus, compared the titular digital world of the circus to something like purgatory, and she either said that all the characters are there for a reason, or that they all somewhat deserve to be there or something? But when asked about who she thinks deserves to be there the most, she said Jax! So if my memory serves, Gooseworx basically said that Jax might be actually worse than just a snarky jerk, lovable as he may be! HOWEVER, I COULD BE WRONG, (again, I might be misremembering, and even if not, Gooseworx might be giving red herrings, or there could always be changes and stuff throughout the full series run! SO TAKE ALL OF THIS WITH THE GRAINIEST OF SALTS!)

    My unsubstantiated theroy is that they know how long its been because old computer games used a "check time" function that actually did check the time through the computer system. This still works even using modern hardware because its still in use! (This is also how some modern games know what time it is on your computer for puzzles and the like)

  • @sirconrad8328
    @sirconrad8328 6 месяцев назад +1

    My theory is that kinger is a game dev that got sucked in to work out some bugs but got stuck. But he’s been here so long that he’s gone nuts, which is why he’s constantly bringing up insect collections.

    • @DistractedGlobeGuy
      @DistractedGlobeGuy 2 месяца назад

      The insect collection thing is definitely an allegory for the characters being trapped and kept for constant monitoring like ant tunnels in a glass display case.

    @johnokland1652 6 месяцев назад

    So my theories on this show are 1)caine is an admin but also trapped has like full access to in game stuff editors and can basically control everything but the people because he cant control their minds hes even created this spa/restaurant area to keep himself sain and never leaves the actual game or his model 2) jax is one of the original beta testers hes overly jaded almost to an extent of blocking out what he doesn't want to see to protect himself from going insane he has "debugging" tools like access to every room and he also insinuates that kinger isnt the longest logged in member "they say" hes been here the longest and thats why hes insane not he has been here the longest 3) the soul or mind is tied to the digital body on almost a root level of the model obstraction is the soul/mind leaving the body cause they gave up on life and it physically corrupts the model the broken model then hunts other souls/minds in an attempt to make itself whole 4) cain keeps them in a hole either cause he cant mess with player data or because he hopes he can save them or he's using them for something 5) there are hints that pomni is more important almost like she might be the calvary coming to rescue them but she lost her memory like everyone else did or shes a new intern who stumbled on the old failed game locked uo in storage and got to nosey and thats why the rest of the cast has been here for years

    Will say, I personally think the excessive sound effects actually works in this show's favor. It further drives in this idea of it being this wacky kid's game that these people are trapped in, while further enhancing the despair of their situation by being so in-your-face about how FUN!! this place is, showing that there's no break from the madness...
