@@YikesMakesStuff if we ended up in a different room I'm sure there would be some kind of pattern connecting the rooms in the first place, I mean what would make us go into that one SPECIFIC room after breaking the wall yk

What are in the walls/what are they made of?

I wondered that too, whether the walls were actually timber studs with mouldy plaster or if they were some completely solid, indestructible "stuff", but in one of the videos, there is a hole broken in the floor, and you can see bits of concrete and broken rebar. sure, you can't see frayed carpet or suspended ceiling panels as one would expect, but i'd put that more down to a CG limitation than a deliberate statement. but on the flipside, there is also a car that teleported through and smashed into a wall in what looked to be a pretty hard impact, yet the wall was undamaged.

To be fair he wasn't talking about auditory and other things, he was very specifically talking about the visual side of it.

The backrooms may be similar to that one SCP. You know the milk cartons with the missing children who disappeared when they fell into shadows? People from all over the world and everywhere in the history and future of the world could all be jammed into one space, which may be why nobody seems to notice so many people disappearing.

So that would mean the backrooms were BUILT to contain the bacteria monster. So who built it and what is their connection to the monster?

You might be on to something, my friend, that the backrooms are like the labyrinth. Considering, so far, we haven't seen the bacteria monster able to leave the backrooms and that whenever someone goes in there, that isn't a part of A Sync, always get lost and never can find the way back to where they no-clipped in. Like Siriuslymentalhatone said, does that mean the backrooms were built and if so, why did these people (or whatever they are), I'm assuming, create the bacteria monster or have a connection with it in the first place?

@@siriuslymentalthatone2528 matpat made a thoery that the bacteria monster was actually a normal bacteria but got stuck and came into the backrooms when it was opened, so I doubt the bacteria monster was a bacteria monster in the beggining and the backrooms was made to lock it in, but it's your choice to believe it or not

Ancient Egyptian myth also relates the journey to the Field of Reeds to a kind of set of challenges, so I can see where the Backrooms are a set of dangerous challenges that maybe we just haven’t seen the back end (or payoff) of?

same, without any of the elements that distinguish the Duat from other "otherworldly" settings, like anything about the heart weighing, or sun imagery for the journey of Ra, or a snake for Apophis, there just isn't enough for the theory to stand up.

Feather imagery is only important for certain ancient gods. The "feathers" you see often are actually reeds. Plants found on the edge of the Nile.

I would add up another element to it- the monster named Ammit. It has the head of a crocodile, front body of a lion, and a back body of a hippo, and it eats the souls of those who's heart (oh, and btw the heart of the person was weighted against the feather, not purely their sins) outweighed the feather of truth. Ammit was an essential part of the judgment ritual, as it was the punishment for all the sinners in the form of eating them right then and there for all their sins.

Definitely is. I told everyone

love me some Wendigoon

This sounds like the same idea that in previous times we imagined great and powerful, natural forces as Gods and Divine beings and now we have tales of Aliens or Extradimensional Beings to replace them. I was thinking the same thing while thinking about the Backrooms. I think it might be a modern take on something like the world of the Fey or Faries. That's just the thing that makes the most sense to me, except the idea of being led in by a Will o' The Wisp or any such corollary is missing. It might just be how in ancient stories the powers were personified and had some kind of personality that, even if said personality couldn't be understood, at least the moods of it could be recognized as human or human like. Aliens on the other hand are inscrutable to most who have said to encounter them. In this it's taken on another form and incorporated Gamer logic into it, with no "guide" or abductor involved at all, you just take a wrong step and boom, you just no-clipped into a developer area of the map. Have fun with the creatures roaming the halls. I mean, the thing that makes more sense than the Field of Reeds of Ancient Egyptian myths is, as someone else has stated, the Labyrinth of Minos with the Minotaur as the deadly creature prowling it's halls, ready to rend apart any who are unfortunate enough to find themselves there. I'm pretty sure you didn't just randomly pop in there. I'm positive that the King of Minos put criminals and traitors in there to be ripped apart by the abomination. There's more but I won't bore anybody who doesn't want the details. Suffice it to say, the only parallel I can draw from it is that a Kings' wrath (which may have been arbitrary and unfair) has been replaced with just random chance. No Kings, Gods or other powers, just random chance. I think it comes from many peoples' estrangement from religion in general and is relatable to modern people, especially gamers, who have experienced this in their favorite (or most hated) game and probably think it's a cool, modern "fairy tale" or urban legend, creepy pasta, etc. So, in short, I think that yes, it's just a modern take on the tales of old in which people, for some unknown and unexplainable reason, have found themselves in a familiar yet eerie and hostile world in which there is most likely no coming back from. Whether it's the Labyrinth, the Lands of the Fey or the Backrooms, it's basically the same idea with a different coat of paint.

Its a mixture of everything in time, past and present all mixed in, cavemen have been found, dead tho, but one thing is you won't find future things just past and present and maybe future not more than a few years.

This can be proven from one of the soundtrack Kane made in his second channel titled "Long Time Ago" featuring a painting of an old civilization, slowly shifting into an Asnyc Researcher then the threshold as it continue to play

On a similar note, is "The Backrooms" even the same for all or any given human today? The dilapidated and haphazardly organised office aesthetic is by far not universal as a standard of mundanity among humans alive today. Not even in North America, Europe, or East Asia would it be consistent. The more common "office building" or "institutional building" (like a government building or school) I'm familiar with would be a combination of brick, stone masonry, and cast concrete, with wood panelled partition walls and largely exposed wood or steel support beams depending on when it was made or how large the initial project of addition was. Even then, I rarely am in office buildings so they would not be "mundane" for me. So then, would different regions of the Backrooms be different according to their corresponding geographies or vary by the human who gets caught up in them? Also, if the walls of this entire structure is made of gyprock (like a "typical" modern office building), then why hasn't anyone just punched and kicked their way through in a straight line until the get out another side?

@@pairjax8065 you know sometimes you can have two different people, with the same idea. :/

The backrooms simply draw upon the uncanny valley, the side of it that has things you can recognize but not understand, (opposite to uncanny things we understand but appear to be senseless or out of place) The term backrooms is from 2017 i believe (4chan) but the actual sharing of empty forgotten places like offices, factories and such were shared around the internet under the universal term uncanny as early as at least 2003 (had my first (private use) pc in 2001 then my first with internet in 2003) and uncanny scenes have always been an obsession to many humans I used to find backroom* (uncanny places) as well as what we now collectively classify as cursed or blursed images on all kinds of forums and irc's back in the day. Used to find most when checking archives (it used to be normal for people to have some directory open for people to peek in) some still exist to this day but they arent as interesting as the early 2000s. What people seem to have lost grasp to these days, is that the meaning to a word almost always predates the word coined to it, a word is coined when enough people recognize a specific understanding.

Hey, it’s just theory

What I particularly dislike about this video is that this exact same logic can and IS constantly applied to almost EVERY one of matpats theories by people who actually know about these games and shows.

A theorist after my own heart. Stay frosty my dude o/

You think this about the Kane Pixels series or the original backrooms? And are you saying the 2 are the same or that Kane’s direction is inspired by the labyrinth?

I've always seen the Backrooms as the result of an algorithm that duplicates rooms. Specifically: - input a model of a given room - generate a random number representing the total number of rooms to create - create an empty linked list - fill linked list with, each ssigned an arbitrary number of attributes and connections, with the connections dependant on the total number of rooms For the most part, the algorithm peforms as intended. However, it was also only intended for the original yellow wallpaper room, which was the simplest possible definition of a room. It was not intended to handle things like props or furniture. I think that's what went wrong with the chairs. The algorithm took in an object and tried to treat it as a "room". No matter how much it stretched and pulled, the chair wouldn't become a room. Eventually, it threw an error and moved on.
