ikr I saw the first 2 theories and thought that Alex just decided to change direction or something, but when the LORE appeared, I was stunned, it's so cool
I swear Alex Bale is the only man who can easily slip past my mind, and make me think of nothing being off. He can literally hide an entire book of lore, and I wouldn’t even notice.
theyre not actually just different creators! they all worked together on this and was planned before hand :D! some of those channels (cynical critic for example) were only made FOR the lore, but yes they all worked fantastically and im happy to see it paying off.
Definitely just a theatre kid thing, but the muse is 100% a mix of be more chill but with channel popularity instead of social popularity, and little shop of horrors
My favorite part of this Muse ARG is the fact that halfway through episode 9, where it was no longer Spongebob theories and only entirely focused on Muse lore, it just cuts to a Surfshark VPN sponsorship
What amazes me is that Alex Bale - a relatively unknown creator - was able to coordinate with established channels, create and tell a compelling story across TH-cam and all this other stuff. Its AMAZING
game theory videos is meant for a wide audience with varying attention spans, so everything gets extremely simplified. If you want an actual deep dive to the ARG, you need to find other videos. By the looks of it, everything is planned from the start
The thought of being experimented on to the point of being deformed and unrecognizable and then being replaced by a clone is probably now my worst fear
(Spoilers maybe?) What I enjoy most about this ARG is actually the commentary of what it takes to be successful as an internet creator. How forsaking your passion and pandering to your audience to get views can turn you into someone you don't recognize, maybe even something alien and monstrous. I feel like the Muse can be seen as a metaphor for selling out, and the conflict between Alex and his Muse can be seen as an internal struggle between his need to make a living and his pride as an artist. I love the horror elements, but the personal narrative of this shouldn't be overlooked.
I had seen the muse segments of Alex's videos a while ago, but I had no idea that this went so deep! Its cool that this ARG includes numerous creators! Very cool
This feels like a giant allagory to how any entertainer can be lured in by corporations and their financial support, sell there likeness, lose control of their content, and are then assimilated or worse yet, turned into a deep fake that the company can sell or use with or without them. 😔 You were digested and no longer needed. You are lost.
Mark has a reason to reveal the muses. He has his own. Ramona Bynes. The tests they did on her caused her to experience a mutation into her own version of the monster, and seemed out Mark to find and reveal the truth for her own revenge.
Alex Bale is literally one of TH-cam's best creators. Sucks that he doesn't get enough recognition. Also, fun fact: before HMF, Alex Bale made a Minecraft ARG called OldRoot. Incredibly interesting stuff, I highly recommend digging into it if anyone is interested
@@godsunit Ye, Alex Bale's ARGs are some of my favorites ever. He puts years upon years of his life into a single ARG, and it is just incredible dedication.
From the latest Alex Bale vid, it turns out that the clones ARE the Muses. It seems that these muses are shapeshifters. So if the Muses are Mother's children, and these Muses are shapeshifters, it's also possible that Mother itself is a shapeshifter. Perhaps, maybe Mother is the clone of Ramona Bynes herself?
The Muse has been feeding Alex Spongebob theories for as long as anyone can remember and this theory is just what the Muse needs to feed. Also, this theory is literally what I've been wanting for so long!
Bro I've been watching you for years now, never stop making content. When I have kids of my own one day and they finally find one of your videos we're binging. Never stop being you, you shaped a big part of my childhood
11:14 i think there’s another way to do it. if it works like twitter profiles, you should just be able to save image as and then check the image to see the full image, or something like that.
Sincerely this ARG’s story is brilliant. Stories about creatives being forced into doing a type of content they no longer are invested in aren’t new, but part of what makes this story so effective is the fact that the videos influenced by the Muses are extremely popular, even getting Millions of views, but videos the creator actually wants to make (like Alex’s short horror film between Theory 4 and Theory 5) are much less popular. They are using the systems they’re criticizing to further the message of the story by providing explicit proof of what they’re trying to say. It’s really, really smart and was also a bit of a gamble. Both for Alex doing something that might alienate his existing audience (for a couple of theories before the story elements were properly introduced), but also gambling that his horror film wouldn’t, for some reason, take off in a crazy way like the Spongebob theories. He clearly has solid understanding of how TH-cam’s algorithm works.
They even managed to engineer some virality for the cynical critic by replying to a comment but "forgetting to log into an alt account" and then posting a screenshot of that to reddit. That is totally the behaviour that the muse would encourage.
At 8:04 they show us a similar brown patch over a photo of chickens to the same one of the cows near the end try increasing the exposure on that to to see if there’s lore behind it
@@DisguisedSlug he totally is the end scene has a cut of a pure black scene from the showroom to the green area in the end of the video it’s wedged in there
I'm surprised the Little Shop of Horrors parallels weren't mentioned, knowing Matpats past as a theatre kid. Idk if they were intentional (I'm assuming yes, mostly based on "Don't feed the muse"), but it's a really interesting and original spin on the themes of it sither way!
The way Matpat telling us not to touch that subscribe button is the proof that he's a wise man who knows how to use reverse psychology in the most effective way possible.
Two reasons I can immediately think of. One; it's a part 2 to a video that was on Game theory. It would be needlessly confusing to put a second part on a different channel. Two; it's about an ARG. Alternate Reality GAME
I still want more lore lol. I feel like Alex bale created this and got friends involved and it is pure genius. I feel like this is his break out from spongebob guy, to show the amazing work he can do secretly
It’s crazy, I watched Alex’s SpongeBob videos and noticed the Happy Meat Farm sponsor after already watching MatPats previous theory on it. Literally blew my mind. What an awesome arg!! :D
Never did I ever think that a ARG about some meat farm conspiracy theory type stuff would turn into a deeper message like "support new ideas from creators!" Well done MatPat, well done
i love how matpat has referred to him as the spongebob theory guy twice in a row now, despite this entire arg being about how he doesnt want to be known as the spongebob theory guy
stop this scam-spam phenomenon please im tired of it i see it everywhere i go “TEWEGWAM ME FOR PRIZE HEHE FUNNI SCAM” like stop it cant (i was gonna finish this comment but couldnt find anymore things to fill this comment but yeah, stop scamming please.)
I'm so excited that your covering him, I genuinely feel that he deserves so much more exposure, especially his filmmaking, I feel that Alex is going through a fase of not knowing where he stands with his youtube channel, but I genuinely think this is a step in the right direction 🤍
Oh my gosh he was telling us to support our favourite creator when they try something new he was intentionally or unintentionally preparing g us for his retirement
He was, wasn’t he? And honestly, I’ve been going over on Game Theory more than Film Theory. I don’t know what it is, especially since I am a fan of movies and not video games, but maybe Tom’s voice lured me in more or his accent did.
The phrase "don't feed them" actually refers to "do not let the whole world eat happy meat farm contaminated meat" and the phrase was actually said by the mother herself,the organization is exploiting the mother
Something about the Mark situation: during his videos, he was harassed constantly by the account of "Sonc the blue rat", a parody of sonic made to torment him with his mistakes. This could be the "psychological torture methods" happy meat farms enforced on him.
POV: [a random ad] Are you a theroist? Burnt out? Well then buy a MUSE! They will provide you the theory scripts, and all it costs is raw meat to eat, sign this here waiver that we are not responsible for any injurys caused by the MUSE. (MatPat reads) "Sign me up!"
I recently watched a few old Game Theory videos and I just want to say your quality of video has improved a lot, and I appreciate all of the hard work that gets put in these videos, for us.
Seeing these long running multichannel ARGs are wild. I have watched Alex Bale for a while and just thought like oh he’s trying something kinda spooky. Love stuff like this.
Are you telling me this man made an amazing ARG to provide the best commentray on youtube algoritym but also on the viewers that help it? This is amazing its such a great idea and a wonderfully creative way of showing it.
Imma be honest here, I was expecting something to hint that Matpat is also part of this multi-channel ARG, he fits right, its fantastic irony, and he has mentioned interest in making an ARG himself (If there are hints at this that I missed just tell me please) also, just an idea for the future MP!
Also, after he mentions the spongebob theory bit and the bone on the meat to chew things, his eyes arent the same for the rest of the video, could be just another expression I dont see often but it makes me curious.
I heard from other comments that Matpat has been hiding messages inside of his glitch edits. The words that appear in some of his videos also seem to be related but I don't know about either of these completely.
I'm really glad you are covering Alex's videos. I've been really into the muse videos the last couple months. I didn't realize it was connected to Happy Meat Farms, so I didn't expect it to be covered on game theory.
I've been watching his Spongebob theories since the second one he dropped, I'm so glad Game Theory is covering it because he deserves more exposure and this will definitely give it to him!
I love when you cover ARGs. I'm never gonna figure out how to find them, and I don't have the brain to figure them out, but I love when you're just like "here's the info you need, and here's how we found it!" Thank you so much. Much
MatPat has been studying this lore for so long, and the comments tell him how crazy he sounds in response. You know what that is? You guessed it! PROJECT *NIGHTMARE*
Lore is like a mutant ball of yarn. You pull one string on one ball, and then the ball open its jaws with millions of tiny sharp teeth and spits out more yarn ball babies which you have to unravel as well.
Intriguing, i always knew there was more to life and i have also been looking for a way to find not only protection but a way to be influential to the human society.
oh well you can achieve that by being a part of the illuminatus brotherhood, i know it sounds like a mystery but there are ways you can actually get in contact with them
@Rose Allen well it is not and you can't actually expect it to be open to everyone, but if you want to know more you can look up Wilford Robert Taylor online you will find something interesting.
Everytime I see a video about ARG's I start paying way more attention to detail in the past couple vids because one of these days he's gonna make a theory about something while being part of the ARG itself
Because he "matpat" thought that the only part of the ARG is the HMF website. When many viewers pointed out that there is a bigger picture, the release of the second theory video is delayed like a couple of weeks instead of being released a week after the first video
Alex Bale is seriously underrated, it's nice to see his projects get some recognition!
He’s amazing
Agreed, I've been watching him for awhile now and he's pure talent
Shame that i first saw him as the SpongeBob guy

Nice to see you spreading awareness of how cool this is!

My exact thought they milk them
Matpat: Wants a muse for himself
Skip the cat: *Sweats nervously*
The fact that I got an ad for the SpongeBob x Wendy's collab in the middle of this video is just horrifying, honestly.
Microdosing on horror by watching Game Theory ARG theories

Same ngl
I was literally wondering when the next Happy Meat Farms/Alex Bale video would be released. Expectations met. Keep up the amazing work!

Maybe HR does stand for “Human Resources”… just not in the context we’re used to…
😶
I could say that watching this in a dark, isolated room makes me feel completely safe.
Imma be honest here, I was expecting something to hint that Matpat is also part of this multi-channel ARG, he fits right, its fantastic irony, and he has mentioned interest in making an ARG himself (If there are hints at this that I missed just tell me please) also, just an idea for the future MP!
Also, after he mentions the spongebob theory bit and the bone on the meat to chew things, his eyes arent the same for the rest of the video, could be just another expression I dont see often but it makes me curious.
I heard from other comments that Matpat has been hiding messages inside of his glitch edits. The words that appear in some of his videos also seem to be related but I don't know about either of these completely.
I think the video of him selling his channel is that smoking gun. Only if the company has anything to do with HMF
As a person who watches Alex bale a lot I’m happy this video was made.
wow this is the most popular one of my comments has been

Yeah the guy is so underrated.
Agreed
Me too! :D
I'm really glad you are covering Alex's videos. I've been really into the muse videos the last couple months.
I didn't realize it was connected to Happy Meat Farms, so I didn't expect it to be covered on game theory.
Imagine being one of the other creators who were in it and watching this video and being like “I PUT ALL THAT WORK IN AND HE DOESN’T EVEN CARE
I've been watching his Spongebob theories since the second one he dropped, I'm so glad Game Theory is covering it because he deserves more exposure and this will definitely give it to him!

MattPatt wants a Muse, So get
some Meat at the Grocery Store,
To Feed One, So you can get
all those Musey Theories!
I love when you cover ARGs. I'm never gonna figure out how to find them, and I don't have the brain to figure them out, but I love when you're just like "here's the info you need, and here's how we found it!" Thank you so much. Much
10:17 if something “randomly showed up” in my house and ate my pet… I wouldn’t be too welcoming either 😂😂😂
Damn, this man might actually go insane one day. He's gonna go insane. But that's just a theory, AN INSANE THEORY!
Thanks for watching!
MatPat has been studying this lore for so long, and the comments tell him how crazy he sounds in response. You know what that is? You guessed it!
PROJECT *NIGHTMARE*
Idk why but now i have a slight feeling that matpat has a muse. might just be me
bro same , maybe he was force to make theory BUT you know right , its just a MÚSÉ theory!
@@Gapprguy0036 Kel pfp! :D
Pretty sure
He totally does. He's had it for a while, too, considering the length of the FNAF theory playlist
With the amount of FNAF he pumps out per month, I think you're onto something
matpat: will anyone watch their new orignal stuff and defy the algorithem?
*yes, but it changes the algorithem.*
*slightly.*
note: by 'the algorithem', i meant the total trending algorithem, it's not yours.
Lore is like a mutant ball of yarn. You pull one string on one ball, and then the ball open its jaws with millions of tiny sharp teeth and spits out more yarn ball babies which you have to unravel as well.
Bale is incredibly smart with his work, loving keeping up with it all
Intriguing, i always knew there was more to life and i have also been looking for a way to find not only protection but a way to be influential to the human society.
oh well you can achieve that by being a part of the illuminatus brotherhood, i know it sounds like a mystery but there are ways you can actually get in contact with them
@Rose Allen well it is not and you can't actually expect it to be open to everyone, but if you want to know more you can look up Wilford Robert Taylor online you will find something interesting.
Feed the muse
I can not belive the intro of this video predicted the short wars clone saga 💀🗿
I love how much work he puts into the animations

Idk if you're a bot, but this is more of an edit than an animation

You mean credits to his editors.
@@Chstrbrg45 it’s actually a mixture of both, it’s motion graphics
Everytime I see a video about ARG's I start paying way more attention to detail in the past couple vids because one of these days he's gonna make a theory about something while being part of the ARG itself
Why is this ARG not on Film Theory? Absolute cinematic masterpiece by Alex
Because he "matpat" thought that the only part of the ARG is the HMF website. When many viewers pointed out that there is a bigger picture, the release of the second theory video is delayed like a couple of weeks instead of being released a week after the first video
@@Defa_Aja20 Alr fair, thanks for pointing that out
