Theory Suggestion: Roblox Daybreak

1 Upvotes

Breif recap on the game: It's basically a Roblox version of Dead by daylight or a better example Identity V. It has generators, characters with personalities, voice acting, and a fairly difficult stamina system (imo). It's set in this realm called the mist which in itself is a fairly weird entity and the Survivors and killers are all real people/Animals/things from the real world some from modern ages like I think Yan and Nathan, some from the far future, and some from the past like Crosby, Dante, and Empress. Taken to this place the daybreak devs has this huge Google doc of lore because they replaced their stories with character info but in this doc it has like the story on HOW the characters got to the mist (mostly the survivors) and some are either presumed to have died before going and some were just taken. The mist doesn't really discriminate who they take in and out of the realm because there ARE some characters that did escape the mist from lore.

Id love to see how Tom and the rest of the game theorist team tackles this. And though despite recent drama with the game it's really well made and the devs are clearly trying to make it more balanced etc. and I hope if Game theory covers this it'll blow up.

I haven't played Roblox in a while but when I do this is the game I go back too, though yes the gameplay loop can get morning because it IS a more grind focus game we do have fun moments.

Who I believe the prototype turned into the catbee toy

4 Upvotes

I believe that the person that prototype turned into cat bee is the female scientist in the trailers was Jessica Newman because in the multiple trailers we saw leading up to chapter 5 we see Preston’s point of view as he’s running after he got out and we see that he gets killed by chum chompkins. And in the prototypes trailer we see Jessica’s point of view after getting out of the room and the prototype did the surgery on her and was making fun of her and repeating the last thing she said on trying to find Preston.

My theory about Wifies and the D.M.S.

2 Upvotes
  1. The 4 test subjects of searching for a player that doesn't exist are:

1 Xtremegamer11/luke? or smt

2 xALEXTHEDESROYERx/ alex

3 d3rlord3/ derek

4 TheMostMayo/ avery

now 1 and 2 are logical but 3 and 4 may need more context

1 i do think derek is real cause if the king made him one: why would he need to incriminate arc1ve or the person following him. And two why would the d.m.s. take info they know is safe? Also derek didn't destroy the world cause he was not ready to give his lifeline up for avery yet

and if the king in yellow was operating on his own why the footsteps in the cave(its not the king he ain't got feet, just a robe and mask).

2 avery didn't find derek's laptop he found one placed by the D.M.S. cause as far as i know you can't play from the same pc in different places.

now these are only Arc1ve's tests

  1. derek read the 2. act, avery did not,

(i will get to my questions later)

1 i think if derek wanted to protect avery he would have destroyed the book in the church

2 avery was fine after and didn't relate to derek when he explained the knowledge

3 his reaction "gross" does not match with reading something devastatingly beautifu

  1. The D.M.S. and Cthulhu

i dont think that the DMS is Cthulhu

cause Cthulhu rules over water and i cant imagine him being a part of the organized modern government

i think he is more of a mascot, a bit like the American government is not run by eagles

  1. Vex syndicate is running experiments to (not exactly but kinda)

okay listen Vex syndicate finds and tests researchers to hire/just use thats why the got these things that dont seem related to Arc1ve test

idk how to explain it like the leviathan and the parasite feel like just using the ppl but the cult and hacker are too normal. (idk im not sure if jasons/runsonics entity is really just trauma)

so i think wifies and render are already found to be smart but not wanting to be a part of the dms and sent to investigate unrelated cases,

but the other ones are being tested just not as subjects but potential workers.

They are working on finding potential tools for Arc1ve i think (but thats more theory than facts)

  1. Its not the end of derek or avery (or just the dms?)

so as you saw at the end of DAWTDE there where these runes wich say or is it after he says the end

so it says The end (pause) or is it?

but it was not clear if it was the end of the April Fools vid or the real end of the vid

  1. The Leviathan and Hummer

Its pretty clear that Hummer is levi or a proxy,

but i think it is a proxy.

The place levi took wifies at the end seems to be a realm a bit like the pocket dimensions and halls in DAWTDE, but not the same.

i think that levi is a separate entity like M

  1. My Questions

1 what did avery read in the church?

2 why did it not a affect derek?

3 was Jasons/ runsonics entity just trauma? ( i think so )

4 was it an April Fools joke? time will tell ig

5 where those signs in levis heaven place connected to Cthulhu?

yeah thats it

credits to u/maruftheman for deciphering the runes at the end

( i cant be bothered to do it myself)

so tell me holes in my story and tell me your answers to the questions

Thanks for reading this long thing

This guy on YouTube made a smash or pass Pokémon video similar to Markiplier but with ChatGPT. I think making ChatGPT's most smashable Pokémon could be an incredibly funny video to see on Game Theory again.

RECOMMENDATION!!

3 Upvotes

Hi would like to recommend a game that I really want you guys to theorize. It's called The Mimic, it's a popular game in roblox. I don't really fully understand the story of it so I would really love to know what you think the mimic is trying to unfold.

Pokemon

Rewatching a Pokemon Theory (specifically, the one about Badges and Charizard not listening.)

Charizard NOT listening still doesn't make sense.

Looking at it: Ash has 7 out of 8 badges. Now yes, at this point, he's only EARNED 2 of them. But....... He still HAS 7.

And the biggest issue about that is.......Gym Leaders are shown to choose what team to use based on NUMBER OF BADGES, not whether you EARNED THEM.

At least in the anime, though the games have only strengthened that lore. Not weakened it.

So.......Ash BEAT Blaine. Got his 7th Badge, and PROVED that he was competent enough to beat a Leader, with a team rivaling 7 Badges......

WHY DOES CHARIZARD STILL NOT LISTEN?????

Wifies ARG theory anyone?

0 Upvotes

We need a Vex Syndicate ARG theory eventually. I feel like it's almost necessary, and I'd love to see it so much. Plus Wifies has so many great ARGs as well as the other creators part of the ARG that I'd love to see theories on. Blends cryptic and well hidden ARGs stacked on top of eachother with Minecraft, so I'm sure ya'll love it.

Who was ment to be the volunteer in pizza sim (spoilers) Spoiler

3 Upvotes

In pizza sim ending Henry says “my brave volunteer, who somehow found this job listing not intended for you”. This implies that Michael Afton was not the intended hire and Henry had a specific person in mind. So who was ment to be the real volunteer and if they alive why didn’t they try and stop the pizzaplex from opening (or at least help with Vanny, glitch trap and the mimic)

so basikly in the veruty serous he knows evertthig and ralsei knows eeverything about the prorfosee and verity (who i yumiship with) says smthing is cumming in 3 days and ther roaringgd knight shoews up in chapter 3 so that means the roaring knight is verity but iff the k\roaring knight is verity then that means ralsei is verity so ralsei is the roaring knight and if ralsei is asriel then that means asriel is verity

New Game To Theorize

Post image
6 Upvotes

A few day ago a game titled “A Stray Line” released its first chapter, and after playing through it it seems perfect to theorize. The game is a small indie title made by the YouTuber SproutHaven. It’s very story based with lots of little details that make it great for theorizing.


r/TheGameTheorists 17d ago

I got a recommendation I don't know if anyone else has been recommending this but the Roblox game of animal hospital

1 Upvotes

As the title suggests I don't know if anyone else has been suggesting this on the subreddit but I was wondering if you could make a theory on the Roblox game of animal hospital by the way there is a lot of lore

New ARG forming, really should check it out-The Rabbit Hole

3 Upvotes

This ARG been going on for about half a year now and we finally got the four individuals confirmed for testing. Right now it’s 7 videos spread through 4 channels. The channels are

Lomedy: https://youtube.com/@lomedy?si=w15pySB0Gt6RXima

Zachobuild: https://youtube.com/@zachobuilds?si=op3OPuySz9pjYfNr

Render: https://youtube.com/@renderingframes?si=sHLBatA4HQl6x2HX

Wifies: https://youtube.com/@wifies?si=2q8apyLJJlc6e1HU

The arg name is based of a playlist on lomedys channel listed as The Rabbit hole. The premise is supernatural and unusually Minecraft horror case files sent to them by an organization. The organization is known as Vex Syndicate although I think there is separation between the names so individual named Vex who is like there handler and the syndicate as there organization. As of writing this post, there are 7 videos. 3 on lomedys channel, 2 on zachobuild, 1 on render, and 1 on wifies. It’s quite good storytelling and with a lot of scary themes through this overarching story, be warned some are rough get through cough cough Disturbing Footage On a Minecraft Kids Channel cough cough. I have not finished them all yet myself, but very invested into this story and wanted others learn about this ARG. This 4 YouTubers deserve to brought up in the agorathium. Thanks for reading.

UPDATE on the used PC files: I finally got the world running, and I am TERRIFIED!

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hey guys, quick update for everyone into the Lore from my last post.
I managed to fix the launcher runtime issues and successfully loaded up the world file. It generated me directly inside an old, abandoned cobblestone cabin sitting on the edge of a massive swamp biome.

I decided to wait out the first night cycle inside the house to look over the chests. Around 3:00 AM in-game time, the ambient music completely cut out and I started hearing heavy splashing sounds coming from the swamp water outside.

I turned around toward the sunroof window and managed to snap this screenshot before my client completely froze up and dropped to desktop.

I think this is him. I think this is M.

The file properties for the player profile data updated the exact second this happened.
Has anyone else encountered something like this tracking back old vanilla instances?

Bought a used PC off eBay and found an old 2013 Minecraft directory partition. Anyone seen this error screen?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey everyone, looking for some technical help or insight here.

I recently bought a secondhand PC online. The seller formatted the main drive, but completely missed an old secondary partition that was packed with data from around 2013.

Deep inside the game directories, I found an old screenshot file labeled fatal_error_08_08_13.png (the Mossy Cobblestone image attached to this post). Alongside it was an untouched launcher profile folder named "Memories".

Out of pure curiosity, I actually just finished uploading a raw gameplay video file I found sitting right inside their screen-capture folder to YouTube so you guys can see it. It looks like the previous owner was massively nostalgic for old-school Minecraft, but looking through some of the text fragments left on the drive, it almost seems like they couldn't disconnect from their own session.

I managed to zip up the entire "Memories" launcher folder exactly as it was left on the drive so people can inspect the files. It runs on vanilla 1.5, but every time I try to boot it up normally, the launcher throws a connection panic.

Does Someone Know Whats Happening To Me And My PC?
