What Exactly Did He Want?
Brother Banana is a fairly well-known figure in the gaming community.
On the Danmu Network, he only makes high-quality game plot analysis videos.
After his explanations and in-depth analysis, many games have become clear to people, giving them a sense of sudden enlightenment and realization.
Many of his videos have garnered over a million views, and he himself has over a million followers.
But now, he has 3.376 million followers!
All of this began when he started exposing FBC, the mastermind behind the Horror Games ' backgrounds and worldviews, which attracted a large number of players.
Brother Banana's videos may not be the most accurate, after all, the official sources haven't come forward, so who dares to say that their plot analysis is spot on?
But accuracy aside, he must be the one with the highest video quality and longest duration among all the plot analysis content creators!
On one occasion, it was even personally reposted, liked, and praised by Shuo Guang from Only Game.
This is equivalent to his understanding of the game being officially recognized, and that alone is enough to make most players bow down to him.
Now, what did he say in his latest video?
The mastermind behind "Control Failure" is actually the protagonist himself?
What the heck?
Many players were confused after seeing the title, and then they all clicked on the video.
As the webpage opened and the content was displayed, the players were slightly taken aback.
Because below the video, in the area where the uploader's profile picture is, besides Brother Banana, there are actually 3 other people!
This is actually a collaborative video featuring four people!
Upon closer inspection, the players recognized some of the three additional people; they appeared to be people who also provided plot analysis.
If this video were a collaboration of four people, it would likely be of exceptionally high quality.
Players speculated in their minds, then looked at the description.
There, it was just a simple sentence.
The title isn't wrong; the Control Failure event was orchestrated and controlled by the protagonist, but this protagonist is not the same as the one mentioned earlier.
Upon seeing this, whether you've played the game or just watched it from the sidelines, you immediately understood the meaning of this sentence.
This protagonist is not that protagonist.
Does this mean the Control Failure event was caused by the protagonist from a parallel universe?
I'll blanch it?
Shouldn't it have been triggered by the shooting death of D-5671, the protagonist of "Skyhill"?
Could it be that this disaster caused by the Control Failure was not an accident at all... but was secretly planned in advance?
But didn't the protagonist of the parallel world die?
After all, by the time the players arrived, that world had long since been destroyed.
Everyone died, and the glaciers in the north and south melted. Sea levels must have risen, and the entire landmass of the planet was probably submerged, eventually becoming a completely oceanic Mercury.
In this situation, where would humans come from?
With many questions in mind, the players played the video.
They were eager to know what untold secrets this game held in its storyline.
What exactly is hidden inside?
As the video plays, the avatars of the four content creators slowly rotate and merge together, indicating that this is a collaborative video.
Then, the screen went black.
The next second, Brother Banana's voice rang out.
He didn't have any preamble or build-up; he went straight to the point from the beginning.
They didn't even say "Hello, everyone!"
[About six months ago, I made a video about the true ending of "Skyhill" and its possible connection to "Control Failure".]
[Later, it turned out my guess was correct. The opening of * Control Failure * recreated the true ending of * Skyhill *, where D-5671 was shot and killed in front of the 0173 control room. Only this time, the perspective shifted from the protagonist of * Skyhill * to the protagonist of * Control Failure *. We witnessed the end of another game from a different person's perspective.]
Why am I mentioning * Skyhill * here? Because we all mistakenly thought * Control Failure * was an 'accidental disaster' caused by the death of the protagonist of * Skyhill *.
[But in reality, D-5671, the protagonist of "Skyhill," only happened to be caught up in the crucial moment of this disaster; he was merely a pitiful D-Class Personnel.]
[When we first entered the control room of 0173's 'Statue' in "Control Failure," didn't we encounter a malfunction where the mechanical door wouldn't close? The NPCs were quite confused. This was the fatal factor that allowed 0173 to breach control. Now, let's guess who caused this malfunction? Was it D-5671, the protagonist of "Skyhill"?]
[After 0173 escaped the control room, a massive power outage occurred, followed by human screams and the roars of unknown creatures. In other words, this power outage was the true cause of the ' Control Failure.' But by then, our D-5671 was already dead. So, guess who caused this power outage?]
Upon hearing Brother Banana's rhetorical question in the video, the players in front of the screen displayed a variety of expressions.
Some even opened their mouths slightly, momentarily speechless.
Among them are some loyal players of Skyhill...
Even before the release of Control Failure, players believed, based on Brother Banana's previous plot analysis videos, that the out-of-control events in Control Failure were caused by the death of the protagonist in Skyhill.
After all, he died in front of the control room of W-FBC-0173's 'Statue'. The gunshot attracted the attention of the D-Class Personnel inside, which led to the failure of 0173's control and caused a major disaster.
Furthermore, after the release of Control Failure, the game's opening perfectly connected with the true ending of Skyhill, making this claim even more convincing.
Even on some forums and communities, players are going crazy for D-5671, the protagonist of * Skyhill *. They think he did it! He succeeded! He traded his life for the Control Bureau's monsters roaming the streets! He successfully avenged his daughter!
However.
In retrospect, the protagonist of "Skyhill" was just someone who stumbled upon the story by accident.
His death did not pose any threat or cause any loss to the Control Bureau that he hated.
Instead... he ended up getting himself involved...
Or rather, the whole Control Failure... would have happened regardless of whether he was there or not.
If we must talk about losses, then his death drew the attention of two other D-Class Personnel in the 0173 control room, indirectly leading to their deaths.
That's truly tragic.
The death of D-5671 took away only D-Class Personnel, like himself, were of low status and had no human rights.
This is nothing to the FBC's Control Bureau.
In the eyes of players, even though D-5671, the protagonist of Skyhill, is a hero who has descended 100 floors in the fantasy world, in reality, he is just a pitiful experimental subject who can be manipulated by others.
He was just a D-Class Personnel, and could never defy fate.
If "Control Failure" has nothing to do with the protagonist of "Skyhill," then according to the video title, the malfunction of the mechanical door in 0173 and the massive power outage of the entire station's facilities were all caused by the protagonist of a parallel world.
Because the real protagonist, D-9341, is currently being controlled by the player in the 0173 control room!
The protagonist of "Skyhill" also died outside the 0173 control room, beyond any hope of recovery.
Once those clues are discarded, what remains, however improbable, can only be this.
The 'protagonist' of a parallel world.
Jemin Walker!
But if that's really the case, then why would he do it?
Besides, isn't he dead?
Even within the main storyline, the disaster that is unfolding in the parallel world is only revealed to the current protagonist through a message.
If he is still alive, why doesn't he come out and show himself?
Why did they choose to hide behind the scenes and orchestrate this Control Failure incident, causing the deaths of countless people?
If he hates the parallel world's Control Bureau for purging humanity, then how is his current act of killing people using anomalies any different from that of the Control Bureau?
At this moment, in the video, as if knowing what the players were thinking, Brother Banana slowly spoke.
[What is the protagonist's true purpose in this parallel world? What benefit does he gain from causing the Control Failure? Why is he hiding behind the scenes, manipulating everything, and even luring us to this parallel world?]
What exactly does he want to do?
[To uncover the truth, we must begin with a hidden boss... a cyborg monster born from the Ultra-Fine Processing between the ' Old AI ' from a parallel world' (W-FBC-0079) and humans.]
