The FBC Organization in the Game

The video was posted by a creator named Ba Nana, nicknamed Brother Banana, a handsome guy with glasses who already had millions of followers.

He had always made high-quality game story analysis videos, and every single one of his works had garnered over a million views.

Now, his latest shocking easter egg video was about four minutes long.

Since its release, within just twelve hours, it had racked up 1.13 million views and countless danmu comments.

But strangely, after the video blew up, it was suddenly taken down—no reason given, no explanation at all. It just vanished out of nowhere, sparking curiosity and questions from many people.

However, the next day, the video was re-uploaded quickly.

This time, compared to the original four-minute version, the re-released video had an extra fifty seconds.

Now, players and netizens who hadn't seen the video flooded into the Danmu Network, eager to check out what this shocking easter egg was all about.

As the video played, it started with Brother Banana apologizing.

He said the takedown yesterday was his own doing and had nothing to do with the platform.

The reason for taking it down was that he had made another major discovery.

So he removed the video, incorporated the new finding, and re-released it.

All for the sake of quality.

He asked the audience to hit like, subscribe, and share.

After the intro, the real content began.

Brother Banana's voice slowly rose along with the video footage.

[I believe many players have heard of the game "Dark Forest" to some extent, and I also believe many have played and beaten it.]

[But the problem this game brings is its baffling story that leaves players scratching their heads. Because it's too obscure and hard to grasp, a lot of players finish their first playthrough completely confused, not understanding what it's about.]

[For analysis of the game's story, you can check out my other video. This video's content has nothing to do with the story, so please bear with me.]

[The focus of this video is the hidden secret buried by the development team across three games—one that's hard to find and easy to overlook!]

As Brother Banana Ba Nana narrated, netizens watching the video gradually got drawn in.

Indeed, many players who had played "Dark Forest" couldn't figure out by the end whether the protagonist had actually escaped the forest or not.

Whether letting go of everything and sinking into sleep was the true ending, or taking a gamble and burning down the big tree was the true ending—no one could say for sure.

Although there were story analyses, multi-ending games never had a fixed answer.

That left everyone with their own ideas, unable to convince everyone else.

But it was precisely this kind of story worth exploring and debating that made players want to experience a second or third playthrough.

This video creator, Brother Banana, must have studied it inside out, right?

After all, he even did a story analysis for "Dark Forest"—he's a true fan.

Many people got scared shitless even on their second playthrough, let alone paying attention to the story.

At that moment, game footage appeared in the video—it was "Dark Forest."

Brother Banana's voice rang out again.

[Before I start, let me ramble a bit about the game's background. The story of "Dark Forest" takes place in a forest somewhere abroad. Due to some weird reason, the trees grew wildly, blocking the roads so that outsiders couldn't get in and insiders couldn't get out. Over time, because of some kind of mushroom, the people in the forest mutated and turned into monsters. Actually, players who've reached the ending know that this was caused by some alien lifeform. It probably controlled the entire forest to protect itself, but it ended up harming humans.]

[Then, such a big event definitely alarmed the country, to the point where they didn't hesitate to use military force to go deep into the forest. Whether it was to rescue people or to do research—well, that's up for debate.]

[But!]

Brother Banana's voice suddenly paused, and then two screenshots popped up in the video.

The first showed an abandoned, rust-covered tank, lying crosswise among the trees, serving as a bed for branches.

The second showed a helicopter, its windshield shattered, its rotor blades bent, equally dilapidated and pierced by tree branches.

[Was it really the country that went into the forest? Or rather, was it just one country? Take a look at these two pictures. See the logos on the tank and the helicopter?]

Netizens watching in front of their computers immediately squinted to get a closer look.

On the wrecked tank and helicopter, there was a very noticeable logo.

The outer ring was a circle with three protruding bumps, like a valve. Inside was a white line circle, and three inward-pointing arrows.

And next to it, three English letters: FBC.

Seeing this image, the players in front of their screens were baffled, not knowing what it was supposed to mean.

Many games had this kind of official organization—not just "Dark Forest," but even popular shooters and racing games.

Everyone was used to it and thought nothing of it.

Brother Banana Ba Nana's voice continued.

[At first, I didn't know what this logo represented, so I just assumed FBC was the in-game national military organization and didn't pay much attention—after all, a lot of games have that. But then, I saw this.]

Another screenshot popped up in the video.

It was a document, covered in stains, clearly yellowed and aged by time and wind and sand.

The content roughly said:

A squad of soldiers struggled to survive in the forest, fraught with danger for several days.

Then, for reasons unknown, one of their comrades began to grow mentally unstable.

Clutching his flamethrower, he would sometimes giggle to himself, sometimes stare into the distance, sometimes mutter under his breath, and sometimes spout nonsense about "her calling me" and "she needs me."

His comrades simply assumed the pressure had become too much for him, that his body couldn't take it anymore. So they slowed their pace to give him more rest time.

But none of them expected that one night, while everyone was fast asleep, he would actually run away!

He vanished along with his flamethrower. No matter how they searched, they couldn't find him, and it nearly plunged the remaining soldiers into danger.

Thus, at the end of the document, the writer furiously branded the soldier a "useless deserter"!

Seeing this, some players who had completed "Dark Forest" suddenly remembered.

In the game's true ending, they had encountered this deserter!

He lay naked among a crowd, talking in his sleep, clearly caught in a hallucination.

After the player punched him twice, they took the flamethrower, and then used it to burn the alien lifeform to death, perishing themselves in the roaring flames.

In the video, Ba Nana continued his explanation.

[There are many documents like this in the game. Players who've played "Dark Forest" should have noticed them; they're mostly used to flesh out the game's backstory. And everyone should have figured out who the deserter in the document is. That's right, in the game's true ending, he was controlled and fell into a hallucination. But that's not the point. Take a look at the upper left corner of this document.]

Hearing this, the players immediately looked and spotted, in the upper left corner, the exact same logo as the one on the tank and helicopter!

FBC!

But this time, there was also a long string of English text below it, explaining what FBC stood for.

Federal Bureau of Control!

[The Federal Bureau of Control. Alright, let's piece this together now.]

Brother Banana paused, then continued.

[First, after the forest mutated, this FBC dispatched tanks and helicopters into it. So we know the FBC has strong military power.]

[Next, those tanks and helicopters were all wrecked in the forest for some reason, and had been wrecked for quite a while. This shows the forest's mutation was beyond their imagination. Combining this with the document, we can see the stranded soldiers didn't fare well in the forest and even met with misfortune.]

[Since military force didn't work, they sent people in to do research and investigation, trying to solve the problem at its root. That's where our protagonist comes in. From this, we can also tell that the protagonist is affiliated with the FBC.]

[So here we learn that the FBC possesses advanced science and technology.]

[But what kind of organization is the FBC, exactly? Is it a national one? If so, which country's organization would it be? Here, I'll tell you: the FBC doesn't belong to any single country! It should be a multinational organization! Open your eyes wide, because what comes next will absolutely shock you!]

The video cut to "21 Points."

At the poker table, sitting opposite, was none other than the perverted killer in the mask!

Players knew that whether in Story Mode or Challenge Mode, after the protagonist Clancy won, he would always have a final life-or-death match with the Masked Man.

And this was also the hardest match in the entire game.

Because the Masked Man would cheat. If the player didn't have enough Special Cards to counter his cheating, they would definitely be killed!

At that moment, Brother Banana's voice rang out again.

[The reason I was looking for information on the FBC in "Dark Forest" is because there's a hidden line in "21 Points" that shocked me. Note, it's a hidden line! Ordinary players would never find it!]

[To trigger this hidden line, you have to defeat every opponent without taking any damage in both the main story and Challenge Mode. Then, when you challenge the Masked Man, he'll say something.]

Brother Banana's voice cut off, but the video continued playing.

On screen, the game's protagonist Clancy faced the bloodthirsty maniac with all his fingers intact. The scene seemed unremarkable.

But what happened next made many players' eyes go wide!

In the game screen, the several televisions behind the Masked Man, regardless of size or position, suddenly all displayed a logo at the same time.

And that logo was exactly the same as the one on the tank, helicopter, and document in "Dark Forest"!

It was a perfect match!

Even more shocking, the Masked Man spoke, with Chinese subtitles clearly showing his words below.

'Well done, Mr. Clancy. As expected of an FBC agent disguised as a photographer, winning all your opponents without a scratch. You certainly have some skills. But from here on out, Lady Luck won't be so kind to you.'

Holy shit!

Seeing this, the players felt an explosion of information.

This FBC acted like a military organization in "Dark Forest," with tanks, helicopters, researchers, and investigators, all facing monsters and mutated creatures.

How did it suddenly end up in the world of "21 Points"?

What was the connection?

Or was it...?

The players stopped speculating and continued watching the video.

Brother Banana's voice rang out again.

[At first, I thought the dev team was just being lazy and reusing old assets. But then I thought about it, and that didn't add up. The conditions for triggering this hidden line in "21 Points" are way too difficult. It's completely unnecessary, and there's no need for it. So this asset was totally useless. Why would they temporarily give the protagonist Clancy such an agent identity? What's the point?]

[But later, when I thought about it carefully, I couldn't stop. The more I thought, the more terrifying it became.]

[A line that could have been omitted was forced in, set as hidden dialogue, with a trigger condition requiring the player to complete the entire level without taking damage. That means this line of dialogue is extremely important!]

[On a bloody life-or-death card table, how does one demonstrate the capability befitting an FBC agent? By going through it without a single scratch!]

[And thinking back to the military power and research technology FBC displayed in "Dark Forest," it's enough to show just how massive this organization is! Bold guess: these two games are absolutely set in the same universe!]

The players watching were stunned speechless.

They had assumed the two games were just separate, independent worlds.

Who would have thought that the easily overlooked LOGO emblem was actually the key factor connecting both games!

FBC

What exactly is this organization?

What is the development team trying to express by doing this?

However, as the video played, Brother Banana's voice rang out again.

[You think that's it? Everyone knows "Visage," a true paranormal horror game. When I found out "Dark Forest" and "21 Points" were set in the same universe, a few buddies and I pulled an all-nighter to clear every chapter of "Visage," and in Dwayne's chapter, we collected something we never dared to imagine before.]

A screenshot appeared in the video.

It looked like a luxurious mahogany desk.

On it lay a contract and a fountain pen.

Under the dim yellow desk lamp, it seemed somewhat eerie.

Because on the contract, written in red bloodstains, was a line of English.

You don't give a fuck!

And in the upper left corner of that contract was an emblem that made the players' hearts skip a beat.

FBC

Why would "Visage," a pure paranormal ghost game, also feature elements of this organization?

Could it be... that "Visage"'s universe is also...?

Just as this information was hard to digest, Brother Banana spoke again.

[So, "Visage" is probably in the same universe too.]

[Now imagine this: what do these three games have in common? That's right—they're all horror games, featuring hauntings, monsters, mutated creatures, murderers, and the like. And the story locations of all three games are different countries.]

[That's why I said FBC belongs to multiple countries. Since the story settings are all different, yet FBC is present in each, and considering this organization has military and research tech, the only possibility is that it's a multinational organization spanning the globe.]

[So my personal guess is that this FBC organization, connecting three horror games, was likely founded jointly by multiple nations, specifically to combat and study these abnormal beings!]

[In this grand horror game world, there are mutated creatures! Monsters! Murderers and paranormal ghosts! And what does humanity have on its side? So far, the only revealed info includes agents, investigators, researchers, and so on.]

The players, seeing this, had a flood of information swirling in their minds, unsure how to absorb it all.

What exactly is the development team trying to do?

Why does this FBC organization appear in three consecutive horror games?

What is its purpose?

Is it just lurking behind the scenes, living in the background lore, purely for research and investigation?

Probably... not that simple.

Otherwise, the development team wouldn't have gone to such lengths to bury these subtle clues across three games.

It's highly likely they have something big planned!

And recalling that Shuo Guang said the next game is a branch of another large-scale game.

A large-scale game...

Thinking this far, the players grew more and more eager to see what this so-called large-scale game was really like.

And just how "large-scale" would it be?

At the very end of the video, Brother Banana spoke once more.

This time, it made countless players fall into deep thought.

[Everyone saw the developer Shuo Guang's first-day sales impressions, right? Think about why he chose to use a document screenshot format. Let me put up a picture here, so you can take a close look.]

At that moment, the video screen displayed another screenshot.

It was exactly the sales impressions that developer Shuo Guang had posted on the Danmu Network in document image format.

At first glance, there was nothing unusual about it.

But after watching the video, the players finally noticed—

In the upper left corner of the document was an emblem that made their expressions shift repeatedly.

FBC.

Corrected the capitalization of the first letter in the previous chapter, unified to FBC. Actually, everyone probably knows what I'm up to—it's turning the Foundation into a game, since that was the plan from the start.
