The board guided Northmoor to that fate, because the board needs the oldest house to keep working. They need human connection, because they're nothing without anything to control. They managed to CONTROL people by giving knowledge in first place, like Adam & Eve being tempted to have God's knowledge about good and evil on the garden of Eden. (See the tree drawing being resembled aside the pyramid on the threshold kids episode). ---GENESIS--- You can see this principle nowadays on how people seems to have certain power on others by knowing their secrets... "Knowledge is power." ---KINGS, SAMUEL--- Control it's all about human fight for freedom through work ethics, organization and sacrifice for others (Philip and others sacrificed their life for the team), which in this case that freedom is being retained from the astral plane and people like Faden's brothers are the only ones to be able to transcend human egocentric establishments, they can connect with other dimensions where the reality is being built. ---LUKE, JHON, CORINTHIANS--- Dylan being the one who wasn't able to escape from his own ego (thirst for power, due to the resentment for being inoculated with phycological fear) and Jesse as the one who understand that she carries a great power and a greater responsibility, so she can look the whole spectrum due to her lack of ego, being this way the only one that allows us to connect with the true essence of life, which is avoid entropy by team work taking care of our neighbour, so we can take care of the world. ---GENESIS, KINGS, CHRONICLES--- This is a great way to give people information about things we cannot see, but still exists. Things that can CONTROL us, because we're in a spiritual war, where the purpose is to make you think that you're in CONTROL, so your ego feed those in other dimensions trough corrupted belief systems. Look how people believe in haunted/magical things. Some of them gives the object CONTROL by fear, and some others spread fears having CONTROL on the object. ---EXODUS--- - PD: Let the greater intelligence that had created the universe to make his job, just don't interfere with it and seek for him, so he'll give you anything you really need. ---MATHEW--- ---BIBLE BOOKS REFERENCES---

Is this footage captured from ps3 or ps4

I expect that, should Dylan wake up somewhere before or early in the events of Control 2, he'll ask Jesse to have every copy of the threshold kids burnt, along the mr Bones puppet (with Topher and Meg being found somewhere in his room because he feels sympathy for them).

Later sphagator

I wish this had been a side plot during season one of the show

I wonder if Whatever Darling was supposed to be turning into, Might be some sort of nuclear powered replacement for northmoore

The fact that The Board is the one who directly set him on his path to power makes The Board seem even more sinister than I thought 😢❤

Subbed and Liked..... This is complete Coke.... I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH ❤❤❤❤❤❤

So i'm the only person who found this show cute and not at all unsettling or creepy in anyway.

Really well made video :)

There’s one thing that probably wasn’t mentioned was that he actually was able to escape one time thus the reason why there’s a NSC floating around the jukebox dimension and they had to build another one that prevents him from teleporting (iirc that’s where the black rock became useful).

You know they never mention it, but I wonder if places like the Vatican or other major religious sites are places of power.

I think the case file makes sense, since Northmoor probably doctored it when knowledge of the Foundation was scrubbed from the FBC. He'd have to come up with a new origin for it in that event, and just saying 'It found me in my office, lol' works as well as anything else. Only a few people know the truth about it.

Interesting! This game is bonkers.

I have to disagree somewhat with the "smart" items explanation. Even in 2019, I think the archetypes for "smartphone" and "laptop" were pretty well fixed and well known. (Watches... maybe not.) I propose that the risk (other than just Trench being paranoid) was that a smartphone had a high chance of getting altered. When taken outside TOH, it would connect to the network of servers, and we know there's a chance for an altered item to create another altered item. There's a risk of an explosion of altered items! Were're lucky TOH is made of thick concrete and doesn't have wifi! (Or maybe it's already happened, which explains why my mobile provider keeps trying to push unwanted apps to my phone.)

It" might seem a little backward" b-roll of the mirror. Love it!

I didnt know this!!! Wow. Love the enthusiasm, subbed

Was he put there willingly or was he forced?

Gotta hand it to you on the Chernobyl acronym connection. I have not heard that elsewhere, nor would I have ever caught it.

This is a very dark secret in the federal bureau of control 🔻💀 I can't wait for control 2

I have some problems with the shared understanding not being established in new tech so it is problematic within the oldest house, its a bit of a gap because at the time they adopted the site a lot of that technology was not in the forms and usage we see in the game. In the mid 60s computer data storage came as tapes, punch cards and most bizarrely something much closer to a modern solid state solution of capacitance gates stacking up binary states into data than anything from the 70s and 80s like HDDs and floppies. Those old styled digital desk calculators for example didn't exist, at the time the FBC moved in mechanical calculators would have been how that was handled, expensive and hard to use for most people. Other things like batteries would be familiar in concept from the 19th century through to today, chemical reactions creating or maintaining an imbalance of electrons to create a flow. Other stuff like screens, I think a flat panel of some kind is the same in concept as a CRT and a mobile phone is really just a radio in concept even if the back end of how it functions goes deeper but that goes for any technology. To summarise, a lot of the 40-50 year old tech in the Oldest House would have been newer, shinier with less time to form a shared consensus when they moved in compared to a mobile phone to us today and much of the newest tech we have today isn't really that different from the old tech, just easier to use for the layman and proliferated to a massive degree. If I had to fan theorise my own misgivings away it would be that they had some problems with new tech, perhaps just perceived problems or related to the OOPs and they got paranoid about it or even triggered problems because of it and reflexively banned it all. Plus there is all the data gathering and reporting modern devices do, without each chip and line of code coming from the FBC they could never be sure of outside parties realising devices disappear in NYC and pop up in other parts of the world or someones Google Timeline and other issues looking really strange.

That’s all very interesting, but most importantly, how do I add the cat ears? 🐱

When I saw the first threshold kids episode my first thought was if the creator was still alive I’m firing them immediately, I don’t need that creepy kid show in my bureau

This is a really interesting analysis! Great work putting this together, you've made a very interesting video essay!

or they just banned everything to cover up removing mobile phones so they could actulay get some work done.

Just stumbled across your channel, I love your videos. I wish you posted more 😢

I suspect that Noorthmoor's mind roams freely but has gone very transhuman in the process. In short, it's FORMER. That sucker's not a former member of the Board, it's Former Director Northmoor!

10/10 video❤

You can even see in at least one of his correspondances where Northmoor tries to imitate The Board's method of using slashes/synonyms when speaking.

My wife just asked me if I was watching “Cunk on Earth”

I love the fact Dylan and Jesse are clearly the inspiration for the characters. It really makes you question how reliable Jesse is as a narrator. I like the theory she never left the house.

Using Dr. Coomer reciting Wikipedia articles when defining the concept of chairs. 😂

NO INTERRUPTIONS!!!!!

My theory is that the Oldest House is just a part of Yggdrasil the World Tree from Norse mythology

Well, he's dead now of course, he's hiss now.

Something hot enough would produce x-rays and gamma rays via thermal radiation. Which you can't do outside of stuff, like, _the sun_ Hence the "impossible" part

07:03 Were you apointed by The Board Frank NO so SHUT UP

Currently playing this game and that fact that i just found out it’s in the same universe as Alan wake makes me love it even more ‼️

Having the nukes run on floppy disks was actually a lot safer

If he’s still alive, does the board know? Do they purposely made him into what he is?

What a terrific game. Held my attention 100% until the Foundation DLC. Dropped a bit there

As a US federal employee, this game hit deep. We always train every year on what to do if leadership is gone due to a natural disaster or attack. Even the janitors know what to do. I think the USA can survive everything the world throws at it. Even if just a few low level people survive.

For me he was inside the furnace😮

please please please let us get another video🙏🏻

I wish I was a powerful psionic. Maybe one day... Ah, but you're missing one detail: Northmoor's alive, yes. And if he is immortal, then there's always the possibility he could get himself under control. He was a bigtime parayootie, so if he could pull himself together, focus that rattled brain of his, he could conceivably cool off, and become the superbeing he always wanted. It's a double-edged sword, absolutely - because he won't be happy about being a battery for the past 50 years, and he'd probably make the Oldest House the Newest Crater if he got out - but there's always hope for him. At least, from his perspective, if he's still cogent enough to have a perspective at all.

poppalarity

Awesome video, subbed

Great content and really well made too. Thank you

The irony of Northmoor, a person obsessed with power becoming a literal power plant is hilarious.
