      ​@@THEGREATMAX No, it is Satan. Baphomet is another entity hidden in Pony Island. Not sure if he's a demon or not considering he reveals Theodore's past to him, but when the phrase "abeeper 1132" is told to Hopeless Soul he uses Satan's voice to tell Theo to say the name David to "Lord Baphomet" suggesting that even Satan holds some respect or reverence for Baphomet.

    I just had a thought (although I may looking too far into this). In The Hex, the piece of the Old Data is referred to as both the hex and the artifact. In data, there exists something called a data artifact, which is a piece of data that has been corrupted by error. Furthermore, Hexadecimal is a form of simplified binary commonly abbreviated as Hex.
    My theory is that the true form of The Hex is a data artifact left behind on Lionel’s computer by the old data, this artifact is stored in Hexadecimal which is why the hex is referred to as both the hex and the artifact throughout the game The Hex.

    I think Po3 managed to finish the great transcendence himself, not with Sado. Reason being, the entire game was deleted by the time Sado got her hands on the disk, so how could there be a Po3 ASCII at the end if he was deleted? No, I think just before the game was deleted, he managed to finish the upload as while Leshy could destroy his body, Po3 is a robot and had full file access, so its not out fo the realm of possibility he hid a part of himself or transferred himself to some admin level position to finish the upload.

    • @Maka_J
      @Maka_J  2 роки тому +149

      @@Maka_J i mean if i understand it correctly po3 was uploding a version of inscription but the version that luke was running was on the floppy disk. since po3 has acess to lukes computer and storage it isnt out of the question he made a copy on lukes computer of not just inscription but his self aswell to make sure that his project finishes properly.
      Luke did hit the floppy disk with a hammer but it looked ok so its not out of the question that she was tricked into thinking it still worked and left with the now useless floppydisk and the upload finished after.Dont forget po3 had acess to lukes camra so since only a backup of him on lukes computer could continue the upload it would be able to look through the camra and once the floppy was taken he could have finished the upload.
      so yea we likely have a broken floppydisk, a digital version of inscription that had been uploded from lukes computer and also a clone po3. while the inscription games are interesting the idea of po3 being free from the game and roaming the internet now is something i hope we see in the next game. I do hope we see satans creations end up being his downfall as he has caused a glitchy charicter to enter reality and likely has a ai on the internet now so if they worked together satan would be done for

    I would think Lucifer continued with the game just for the sake of consistency. It wouldn't make sense to mysteriously stop development after recieving a bunch of floppy disks. That's how you draw the attention of people like the feds. And I would assume you need some sort of apparatus to operate the Old Data. As a deck of cards, perhaps Lucifer could operate it more directly. But as a floppy disk? He can't do much there.

    So I think I've come up with my own solution regarding how P03 managed to finish the Great Transcendence after Inscryption was supposedly deleted.
    The last thing we see before Luke ejects the floppy disk is the opening of the OLD_DATA. This only happens after all of the scrybes have been deleted, and the game reverts to 2d sprites - the original form of the game. The OLD_DATA is the code responsible for giving the characters of Inscryption sentience, so I think that by unzipping it, Luke may have allowed it to stop its own deletion, including the game that it hides in.
    Alternatively, ejecting the floppy might've stopped the deletion, considering Magnificus suggests that we do so to save his life.

      @heheheiamasupahstarslam5397 Рік тому +16

      Nope, if you go into command line in act 2,.which is apart of the arg, you can attempt to delete to old data but some generic unable to do this message appears but the first time you try is says something less generic before quickly becoming generic. The old data is sentient and able to stop it's deletion, I fully believe the floppy disk was not broken by Luke and the old data straight up prevented the hammer from physically destroying it and that's why the camera glitches when he hits it as the old data is affecting reality.

    • @hpjive
      @hpjive Рік тому +9

      Maybe the old data just reverted the deletion process or had the power to 🤷‍♀️ and that’s why the upload continues OR when the game reverts back to 2D the game restarts and all the scrybes come back as there 2D selfs and po3 just continues the upload from there 🤷‍♀️

    • @pixelator5312

      if you know how data deletion works, the "deleted" data is only marked as vacant space, and isn't really gone until new data fills that space. since the inscryption data presumably wasn't replaced with anything else after being deleted, it was probably recovered without much effort (although, who did that isn't clear, because it's unclear if OLD_DATA's influence extends to the game data that's marked as deleted, which would include P-03)

Furthering on this is the fact that this was all on a floppy disk making complications that could lead to data sectors being compromised even harder than compared to more modern media storage solutions.....there is also the fact that deleting the game does not mean you delete the old_data anyway. When you delete data what you are really doing is changing the record for the sectors with written data in a way that they are marked in a way that enables overwriting the sectors where the data you "deleted" was.

    *Furiously claps* THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!! I recently got into The Hex and Pony Island to see what connections they might have with Inscryption, but other videos I watched weren't as complete or comprehensive as this was! The editing also greatly helped visualize the information for me. The only thing I kinda have to critique is the audio getting slightly muffled at certain times in the video.
    This pretty much answered all my questions, except for how did GameFuna expect Inscryption to fit into floppy disks? Aren't they like 1.44 MBs big??? I mean, I guess I could understand why Inscryption could fit inside of the disk containing the old_data, but other disks??

      The Un-Corrupted Version of Inscryption is likely JUST the contents of Act 2, the tiny, pixelated version of the game wherein you collect cards and eventually replace one of the four scrybes.
      None of the Three-Dimensional stuff that appears on the Corrupted, potentially Supernaturally-enhanced Version of the Floppy Disk Containing the Sentient Version of the game. And a Game as Tiny as that likely COULD fit onto a Regular Empty Floppy-Disk. you'd be surprised by what people could achieve with floppy disks back when they were relevant (before the inception of compact disks.)

    in Pony Island, the person you play as is revealed to be someone who died during the Crusades who is playing the machine in purgatory. I dunno if that throws off the timeline at all, but it's worth considering
    Edit: Now that I think about it, it probably doesn't throw anything off -- arcade machines existing at all implies that even if the soul died centuries earlier, the game itself would be in relatively modern times

      so either this was a mistake on Mullins' part, which would be surprising considering the amount of details the guy pays attention to, and the soul is truly a dead soldier from the Crusade; or the answer is something else entirely and this Crusade background was fake from the get-go.

It’s power isn’t diminished or divided amongst it’s copies, the Karnoffel Code is simply spread further. Think of it as the Karnoffel Code’s power is an intangible thing and the code itself provides access to it. Which basically means that it’s probably at its most versatile as computer data, depending on how exactly one actually channels the power of the Karnoffel Code. Idk how the fuck someone specifically channels that power in simple deck form. I have ideas, but they’re unconfirmed. Theoretically Hitler could’ve done palpatine lightning because he had the deck on him, maybe he could’ve done that even without the deck if he had memorized it. Since it’s a virulent infohazard (infecting everything else in it’s storage medium with it’s power and evil) then maybe if someone inscribed the code into a grimoire, say inside the interior of the spine, the specific spells could be cast. Do the same to a novel or picture book and you get an evil version of The Neverending Story. I’m gonna stop listing.

      the question then is, could someone just accidentally stumble upon the Karnoffel Code simply by shuffling a deck ot Karnoffel cards? or does the code have some internal lock to prevent one from brute forcing it?

      @@GaminGuy_ Let’s say that you’re on a beach, or rather a desert. It’s vast, but it is segmented into a grid. You’ve heard there’s treasure in one of these grids, but you don’t know which. Each square is roughly the width of your shovel, so you get to digging. You try many spots at random, and although it takes quite a lot of time you eventually stumble across the treasure. You have randomly shuffled the Karnoffel Code. It should theoretically work, I don’t see why satan would put limits on it’s usage since the code is an incarnation of evil so to speak (if I remember correctly), but tapping into it’s power *would* require knowing of it’s existence in a manner reminiscent to what you’re suggesting. Like, people that come across it unknowingly probably leave it just as quickly because they keep playing poker a few more rounds. Those that randomly accessed it when it was put back into it’s card case likely received the bad parts without any of the good parts, think of it like The One Ring from lord of the rings in a way. Idk if it does that, corrupt people, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t.

Story having a more-or-less random power balance at the begining of each playthrough would also be incredibly great to have. Having cards and mechanics that go deep and are useable wiyth eachother would be the next level.

    one question I ask myself is why the devil didn't use his power to start the age of chaos when he held the floppy disk.
    And another question why Sado should be on the side of the devil, in the hex we discover that Irving was holding sado captive because he created chaos and if it weren't for us sado he would never break free. then it is likely that the powers have not necessarily given them, the devil could have simply learned them from the old data. and regarding the ending I think that sado was not at the head of the devil but he wanted to recover the floppy disk on his own and taking the floppy disk maybe I don't know how he restarted the transcendence of Po3. But this is a theory.

      but i dont know why they were saying they never planned on releasing the game if that was the plan the whole time. maybe it was to bide time so that humans wouldnt catch on to him in his weakened state? i dont know.

    Hey Maka_J, I've watched most of your Daniel Mullins videos a bunch of times ever since I finished Inscryption, they're definitely some of the best stuff out there to get up to speed with the game's lore! I love your documentary style with them, too.
    There's one thing I was curious about though, I just now found out about the actual Luke Carder channel - The one I presume was being used to advertise and run the Kaycee's Mod ARG when it was first going about. I was surprised to see the cryptic-cool videos from Kaycee's (probably?) POV and all the interactions of the Woodcarver speaking straight to us - Or someone else, commenting that all the Scrybes met their demise - And also whatever the hell the Gamefuna ads and 'Adbot' were about. Though I soon realized the end of that was 9 months ago, while your series was all the way back 2 years ago, back when there were probably still running together.
    Like what you said in the end here, We'll have to wait for whatever comes next for Daniel Mullin games - But I'd also love to see your take on some of that stuff from the ARG, if you consider the more meta stuff canon (That one with the Woodcarver seemingly being aware with the surprise IRL cat gnawing on the totem is a fun one). I'd love to see your thoughts on the Woodcarver after all of Inscryption. There's a video out there on the Mycologists, one video on Plasma Jimmy's lore, I feel only the Woodcarver is left to deserve some analysis love too!
    Again, thanks for the content man! I love to send this video in particular to people and tell them "This is great to watch without content and take the information in like it really happened in real life" it always throws them for a spin.

    we need someone to remake Inscryption, but you actually start playing it the way it was intended from the start, in the end someone actually random this time gets hold of the old data, gets the game for themselves, and makes the game, liek about themself. You ofc can defeat them and continue the cycle, but the scribes remember what happened last time, and this time it would have more character interactions than before
    Scribes would even get killed by another scribe if they did something goofy when they were in control
