Theorists, it is time we finish what we started. Last episode, I started a deep dive into the secret organization running the DDLC simulations. Today, I want to talk about what is happening in the other simulation with Project Libitina. Team Salvation is planning something monstrous and no one, not even Monika, is ready for it. It's time to open our third eye to a whole NEW Monika... Marla.

I think its interesting to note that if Monika is a nurse and not a patient or experiment, and the other 3 are it also loops back to the statement of physical appearances being different than normal humans. Monika has brown hair and green eyes, while the other three have unnatural hair and eye colors possibly caused by them being experiments and Monika being a nurse.

You know the third eye granting violent tendencies sound like it's a metaphor for the experiments being conducted by the team rathen than a literal interpretation. They grant awareness of higher knowledge and that causes the character (in this case Monika) to have an existential crisis and become violent toward her fellow classmates. Metaphorically speaking as she never harms them directly but also is willing to sabotage and destroy their files because she sees them as expendable.

Monika was a simulation test of what happens with the full knowledge of the world you’re in, from what I gather she is in the simulation what this project is trying to create in reality. She not only is aware she’s in a game but can use that awareness to manipulate it and talk to us, even if we can’t respond.

Monika was forced to delete her friends, because of her attempt to gather the attention of the player, she created the MC but his presence also garnered the attention of the other girls. Not only that but her simulation didn't allow her to interact dorectly with him. Forcing her to become the only option.

So let me get this right, Paula and Ive are in our world, and they created DDLC and PL. The characters in PL are becoming sentient and are trying to figure out how to "accend" to our world. Monika in DDLC has done this by "accident" and "escaped" the simulation. Are the makers of PL trying to mirror real humans to see if "they" can awaken by themselves? And if so, I dont understand how Monika is connected to PL, they seem to be two separate entities completely and idk how Monika can identify the characters in PL as her friends in DDLC???

A theory based purely off observation: I believe Yuri is at least loosely aware of all of this in the second act of base game. Think of how aware she is that she’s acting differently than normal, whereas Sayori, who’s feelings were also altered by monika, didn’t seem to note her depression had gotten worse than normal. Before Yuri confesses her love and subsequently stabs herself, Yuri says something like “I don’t even care if monika’s watching!” which can easily be dismissed as Yuri showing she doesn’t care about monika’s jealousy, but also very possibly signify her awareness of the situation (we know how much DDLC subtly foreshadows). When you mention she reminds you of the character in Portrait of Markov, she isn’t distressed or put off( because she isn’t aware it’s her), whereas she instantly panics in the second act. And one of the freakiest parts of the game- when her eyes become human instead of animated, tying in to the “opening of a third eye” theme.
@3lH4ck3rC0mf0r7
@3lH4ck3rC0mf0r7 Рік тому
Yuri as Libitina might be the individual in TEST VM that ultimately develops the strongest Third Eye. So, unlike Monika, who was just forcefully granted complete awareness and admin access, Yuri and Libitina's AI have a specific combination of parameters that makes it easier for them to naturally escape the virtual machine sandbox all on their own. Probably connected to her tendency towards less common words and complex use of language. Chaining events in unusual ways is how most game glitches are discovered. And by studying how she does it, the engineers hope that it'll help them glitch their way out of their simulated world, too.

I had a thought, remember the poem Yuri wrote in the 2nd playthrough? The one titled "Wheel"? It might be a stretch but I think there might have been elements in it hinting at this truth; "A rotating wheel" = Machine? "A portal to another world" = The bridge between the Virtual Machines or the VMs and our world "Expanding universe", "Time controlled by slipping cogwheels" = The VMs being simulations "Existence of God", "A prayer written in blood" = Religious imagery "A thread connecting all human eyes" = Third eyes! "God disproving the existence of God" = the research team trying to prove that they themselves live in a simulated reality Just a random thought xD

My thought: this new game is going to be a reverse of DDLC thematically. DDLC was something that looked and seemed upbeat and fun, then took a turn for the horrifying. This new game is going to be a horror show that is invaded by DDLC's Monika (either jumping over from her VM or from the outside via Ive as Mat theorizes here), and turns into a story of how she manages to ACTUALLY wrest a happy ending from this nightmare, not by selfishly changing things for her own benefit but by intervening on behave of the alternate versions of her friends.

Given Salvato's love for deconstructing familiar themes and mechanics on a level that surpasses a quick meta reference here or a gimmicky 4th wall breaking (DDLC is in a very different category than something like, say, IMSCARED or Pony Island), I could very well see Libertina/DDLC2 being exactly what you said

I think i've found an explanation for the story of "Portrait of Markov" Metaverse made VM2 as a simulation in which unlike VM1 where Monika knows she is in a simulation and can manipulate it, In VM2 they only suspect that they live in a simulation or know but cant manipulate it, so in order to find out if they do live in a simulation or breakthrough it, they start experiments on humans physically and psychologically to somehow create a way to either breakthrough the simulation or manipulate it. PROJECT Libitina is a simulation of what humans would do if they become aware of living in a simulation.Kinda scary when you think about it like that.

While there's this definition of the name Libitina which gives us a possible answer for the "Name implies death" line at 12:44 "Libitina, also Libentina or Lubentina, is an ancient Roman goddess of funerals and burial. Her name was used as a metonymy for death, and undertakers were known as libitinarii. Libitina was associated with Venus, and the name appears in some authors as an epithet of Venus." and rewinding back to the 2017 theories Matpat concluded that Libitina is none other than Yuri based on that doctor's report ending with Renier being questioned if he has as much faith in his employees as he does with his god. Additionally Libitina could be the main subject of the game since not only is she a character, the whole project is named after her, and it would explain the "She will lead the path to ascension, and we will follow" line at 7:08. My Prediction (My Generic Brand Diet prediction!), is that Libitina (VM2's Yuri varient) will be our last and most dire rescue, since she cannot repress her third eye, which means we'll have to be VERY, VERY, VERY Careful, or else she might end up being the final piece to completing the angel in mortal skin, and oh boy do I want to knock Renier and the Academy's lights out and watch as their arrogance turns to pure, unadulterated fear as everything they worked for turns to dust.

THEORY: With the breaking apart and stitching together of body parts would leave scars and seams What if Yuri's cutting is a metaphor of how she might of been a successful test of stitching together of body parts. With her being an amalgamation of people with a strong affinity towards "opening" the third eye, but her knowing she wasnt born, but created causes mental insecurities and makes it difficult for her to suppress her third eye. Just like the project libitina text file states.

Maybe the third eye is the higher level permissions that Monika has, since having a 3rd eye usually means some higher level of intelligence or fortune telling. In order to get a 3rd eye, you might need to have a variant in another simulation, like Monika does. This would make Yuri, Sayori, and Natsuki all test subjects with high 3rd eye potential. Just a small thought I had.

So if Monika is a nurse, helping the girls, this personal bias when found out by the academy could spell trouble for her. Or maybe it already has and her consequence is death (salvation from the simulation) and she roams between the two games like some sort of ghost.

I have a small theory about the sentence "people who have the third eye has physical diffrence" Remember in one of the side storys Monika said"Natsuki is easy to spot due to her bright pink hair" implying other people have just normal colored hair like brown black etc. what if these physical diffrences are the hair colors and stuff it would make sense since monika isnt a patient and what is her hair color? Brown which is a normal hair color Unlike Sayori Natsuki and Yuri
@dragonblade4125
@dragonblade4125 2 роки тому
Omg, that makes so much sense! Monika has normal colored brown hair and green eyes, rather than abnormal physical differences! Adding on to this theory, that means that Sayori is being tested on the least since she has normal blue eyes and just her hair is abnormal, while Yuri and Natsuki and abnormal colored hair *and* eyes. Which also makes sense in context of another theory I saw in the comment section about how personal characteristics from VM2 might have carried over to VM1, since both Yuri and Natsuki had issues that hurt them physically, with Yuri's self harm and Natsuki getting starved, while Sayori's issues affected her more emotionally (possibly from being tested on the least and seeing her friends suffer more than her, which also explains her being more empathetic than the others since she was tested on less and focused on the others' worse suffering than her own, she could afford to be more empathetic). I also find Natsuki's VM1 situation in comparison to the others interesting. She's the only one who has no self-inflicted pain (whether physical like with Yuri's self harm or emotional like with Sayori's depression hurting her), with all her issues stemming from someone else. She's the only one who wasn't pushed to off herself, instead just being directly deleted by Monika, which suggests that either she couldn't be pushed to the brink since the source of her pain was someone else (which is a flawed theory since Monika could've just upped her sensitivity to her own suffering like she did with Sayori's depression), *OR* Marla (VM2 version of Monika) was closest to Natsuki (possibly because of her more resilient, tough nature where she resorted to distancing herself from others and possibly used dissociation if her interest in unrealisticly happy, childish manga is a sign indicating that, maybe she got those kinds of stories from Marla in VM2 to help herself dissociate from her situation?) so those feelings carried over to VM1 Monika and caused her to off Natsuki in the most merciful way. OMG I kinda realized from Zane Mackey's comment in the comment section that the Natsuki neck snap scene could actually be a reference to the cutting and reattaching of limbs experiments.... So that could be what's happening to Natsuki... And then there's Joshua Traverse Jr.'s theory of Yuri being pregnant theory combined with Matpat's theory that Yuri is Libitina and is a core component of Project Libitina.... and my own small theory about Sayori..... *whoa*

Maybe the “genius” with no third eye who’s advancing Libitina’s work isn’t Renier and is in fact Ive Laster? That’s if Monika definitely has changed places with him. It would make sense for him to have no third eye and to be considered a genius as he’ll have insight that no one else in VM2 could possibly have. Just a mini theory!

If Monika really has switched places with Ive, he would only be at the literature club. Cause Monika only has access to VM1. She’s slowly gaining access to VM2, but she doesn’t have a stable connection.

@@ariaofthe6strings230 That being said though, Ive would have elevated access just as Monika did, possibly even higher, since he worked on the simulation, not just knowing about it. If this is the case, it's possible he made his way into VM2. It's also worth noting since both VM1 and 2 would be run on the same computer, they wouldn't be completely separate (as we see with Monika). One reason why Ive could go into VM2 rather than staying in 1 could be because they mentioned before that they were no longer looking at VM1. If he tried asking for help there, no one would hear him. So, he goes into VM2 with his knowledge, and uses it to accellerate the connection experiments, so he can get the attention of the other employees.

I believe also it's Ive. He never had anything to do with Project Libitina. He never has opened his third eye according to them. Monika could've transferred herself as Ive into VM2. If she just transferred herself it would look pretty suspicious due to Marla being a nurse there. Also Ive would be technically dead due to nothing controlling the brain. Monika has seen everything that has been happening in VM2, so she knows basically everything that is happening in Project Libitina. Monika has all the information to "help" this cult. She made Ive join Project Libitina to gain their trust. They gave basically Monika the guardian role for Project Libitina when in fact she is guarding the girls. im just adding this to your theory if this makes any sense

@@bobble68 I don’t think Ive would have had Kernel Access like Monika has simply because Monika YEETED him into VM1 or 2. It’s BECAUSE he doesn’t have kernel access that he can’t manipulate the reality of either VM. While the possibility of it being Ive is there, VM1 is a seperate entity. Even if it’s on the same computer, any administrator on a virtual machine cannot alter the files of other, NOT connected file to the virtual machine that said administrator has access to. It’s why if you ran a virtual machine of windows vista on your windows 10 device, your windows vista virtual machine can’t alter your windows 10 files. Unless deliberate, meticulous outside work was done in terms of coding and the changing of disk image partitioning would allow such a thing to be possible. It’s why in the emails, a member of the Metaverse team said she had an idea to establish a more stable connection to VM2 due to VM1 taking loose data.

Natsuki has a older adult who physically abuses her alot and her form of torture is being starved. Sayori could be suicidal from all the expirements.

13:53 Seeing as this mystery researcher has some form of elevated knowledge about what is being researched, yet doesn't have a "third eye"; It could be argued that the "guardian" my be Ive Laster. It could make sense... While Ive was trapped in VM1, it could be that with his elevated knowledge of the VM's (as a designer/developer of them), he found a way to transfer himself across to VM2, where he could put his knowledge to use in finding a way to the outside world, so that he can escape. this would explain why he doesn't have the "third eye" trait that the other researcher have, as he (or his character) comes from another VM entirely, where the "third eye" doesn't technically exist. On top of this, the fact that this "guardians" ascent through the ranks has come at a surprise, would indicate that they seemingly came out of nowhere, at least to the perception of the other researchers. In Fact, the name "guardian" could be a hint towards Ive being this new researcher, as being the person who probably cared most about the girls in VM1 (to the point where he got seemingly "sucked into it" so to say), and being the one whom Monika is "convincing" (or forcing) to help with her cause; makes him almost a "guardian" of sorts to the goals of Monika in the first game. but that's just a theory, a probably incorrect and overthunked theory. thx for taking the time to actually read this if you did

“Libitina, in Roman religion, goddess of funerals. At her sanctuary in a sacred grove (perhaps on the Esquiline Hill), a piece of money was deposited whenever a death occurred. There the undertakers (libitinarii) had their offices, and there all deaths were registered for statistical purposes. The word Libitina thus came to be used for the business of an undertaker, funeral requisites, and, by poets, for death itself.” For one thing, if this is Roman religion, then there are multiple Gods. So if this is JUST Project Libitina, then are there more projects? For another, it mentions poets. Sound familiar? (Hint-literature) Also I copy pasted that from a website-

Watching this, i can't help but recall what happens in ddlc when you delete Monika immediately at the start of the game. Sayori freaks out and it cuts to the image of her hanging body. Before, I figured the sudden knowledge of her newfound powers made her go mad, but now it occurs to me that the memories of her time in the other reality drove her to suicide in that instance. So when she becomes the 'president' in the game proper, knowing about her manipulated death would be par for the course on top of everything else. She could more easily accept the way things were because to her, it was all the same, at least she could change things for the better now. Jesus the more you think about it the more effed up it gets.
