@@Devil_Mishima That’s a very good point! I think that maybe The Entity’s influence is only visible in the red light itself, because if it truly disconnected completely from The Entity, then they wouldn’t get bloodpoints either!
All I know is that the entire game is from the Entity's point of view , And everything is created from the entities imagination , Therefore making everything organic and everything bleeds , The basement is the only true spot in the map that's actually consider real , Every map created starts from the basement and outward , The walls from the trial actually keep out monsters That live in the fog, The campfires are actually not safe , The only place That is safe is actually The trial itself, That's why everybody goes back to the trial there's nowhere else to go , So everything has to be played out step-by-step , The beginning of the trials were terrible because people would just freak out And go bazerk, Survivors even turned on each other , The killer was mostly a monster not really human , And there weren't technically any walls yet , All That came Afterwards
I love the scene where the survivors team up with the killers, go for a Hunt against the entity and when they manage to get it cornered, the Entity says: "It is me. I am Dead by Daylight".
@@LoganHunter82 for real though. When Wesker said "you will not live to see the dawn" in the middle part of the movie, I thought it could maybe be a indirect sign that he was the one behind the entity. But when the Entity itself said it, I could not hold my emotions...
@@-_deploy_-And then by daylight just before the entity was dead and it started deading all over the place, truly one of the movies of all time, I nearly cried
My theory: The Entity is the embodiement of the darkness inside people, and as such is completely and utterly terrified of light. The Entity, therefore, created The Spirit World, a small recluse for it to oversee the trials and Void so without being seen. The maps and realms are mostly at night, as it is the time where The Entity is strongest and can take people unnoticed. However, sometimes it takes people in the day, as the person it is going to take is at their peak of emotion and bloodlust, and takes it’s chance instantly. This is why it is daytime in Coldwind and The Eyrie, as it took Max during the day, likely when the TV he loves is on. He took the Artist as it was summoned by The Black Vale, and clearly knew that they had taken the ritual too far and almost ruined its plan. The flashlights were likely made by Vigo, as an attempt to fight off the Entity.
The devs have said that The Entity is becoming stronger and stronger! Originally it took Hillbilly but couldn't replicate the daylight time, and with Carmina just like in your comment, The Entity is becoming stronger!
@@MintSkull so his plan is working... also is it possible that demogorgon was banished by the entity because it has no emotions? (I know that it was an issue with netflix but inside this world it might be the explanation)
@@TheFelix07 That could be true. A theory I have is that due to the demo being able to teleport via his buttholes, he kept breaking into others trials by cutting off his connection with the entity and due to the entity not being able to see when he goes in or out, it made him upset because this is a game to the entity and demo is breaking his rules. He can't banish pyramid head due to pyramid head being stronger than the entity...Partially
@@TheFelix07 That's Wierd because Shreds or Teleporting gives Blood Points, so the entity is pleased... Maybe because he obtains Undetectable while portalling, his connection with The Entity weakens when he is - and emerges from the Upside Down ? And what if The Entity's version of the Upside Down is located inside of the Spirit World ?
Adding to the 'the light is not real' thing, I have always imagined that while the Entity knows what snow looks and sounds like, it has no idea how it feels, and so on Ormond, the temperature there is likely no different to the other realms whatsoever. I imagine all the realms and maps have a similar temperature if not the exact same, so don't feel too bad when your shirtless Vittorios and Davids end up in Ormond lol, its not any colder than the other locations. The reverse of this is that the Entity might not understand fire either, hence why characters can walk right up to the various bonfires and even the burning helicopter on RPD without getting burnt.
We can say the Entity is evil and all but you gotta give the Entity some good points too. The Entity still let's the survivors and killers enjoy some festive seasons in its realm. The Entity is an pretty cool guy and doesn't afraid of anything.

I think a gamemode that would have a different win condition would be cool. To play on dead by DAYLIGHT, instead of generators, it'd be more like a slasher movie where you have to survive until daylight.
They'd have to remove lockers and basically remake every map specifically for it. Could be cool but there's no way it happens. Maybe they could add a mode where pallets randomly respawn and survivors don't die on hook, the killer's goal is to get the most hooks possible and survivor's goal is getting hooked the least possible.

@@private_channel235 yeah, you'd need some system where the survivor is moved to a spot away from the killer when hooked rather than needing to be rescues
This is why I believe Kate is the main protagonist in DBD’s lore narrative. She is the embodiment of light (Described as a ray of sunshine) She’s described as a beacon of hope in the darkness of the entities world, and she’s the main survivor that fills every one of her teammates with hope. She’s described almost Angelically with her music, and has the most sway over people she comes across. She’s someone who escaped the first kidnapping attempts of the entity and stared directly into it. Although one thing I don’t understand is why vigo(?) stopped having in-game descriptions of survivors after her.

I always had one theory about why flashlights last so little. If you look at the flashlights in the game you will notice, that they are all use tungsten filament. Tungsten's temperature in a glowing bulb is around 3000 °C (5400 °F). It's not surprising why they're drying out their simple batteries. P.s. I miss old Coldwind maps still :'(
Same idea that you have for the red stain could also apply to the terror radius. The terror radius is confirmed to be an actual thing that the survivors can hear by Benedict Baker. Also, one of the Universal Terror Radiuses is called “Entity Brain” on the soundtrack, which suggests that the killer is the Entity’s “brain” in the trial (like how the basement is the Entity’s heart in the trial).
@@Jay_Johandsomeyep they both did it pinhead showed up because he wanted his box since it went over the wall and landed in the entity's back garden and Myers showed up because the entity took Laurie and Myers didn't want him stealing his kill so just showed up for work the next day with no explanation

I'm really curious about The Legion background because their DLC is called "Darkness Among Us" and by the trailer they look like a disguise killer, so were The Legion supposed to be like an impostor and Behavior changed that for some odd reason in the end?
I absolutely love how in depth you go into the lore, it just makes it more of a story game even tho you do the same thing over and over again. It means a lot more.
4:25 Another thing, things like the nurses blink charges or the wraiths invisibility can be "burned" with light, which shows, that these and other killers powers, which are basically the entitys "augentation" to the killers are completly susceptibile light.
I've always thought that "Dead by Daylight" meant that survivors need to cooperate and survive the trial because if they don't or take too much time, they'd be dead over the span of one night. (So basically when daylight comes)
One thing i was thinking: Light hurts only eyes, not skin. So, the entity is in the eyes of every kller. But why the sun don't hurt you ask? Like Mintskull said: It's not real. They are recreation of memories. BUT, flashlights, toolboxes, keys, maps and medkits are memories of the survivors. So, survivors are not entirely dead, they are just in another dimension or in somekind of place and time where it is almost impossible to escape 🧐
@@-_deploy_- But Wraith and Nurse are another thing with this theory because they can't use their powers when they are in a light of flashlight. Maybe they are closer to the Entity and their power is stronger but prone to light 🤔
Also metaphorical light. Kate was spat out of the realm because she didn't submit to the trial, being a saving light to other survivors. Only after being abandoned by the Entity, does she lose the light and become prime pickings for emotion.
This was really interesting. I honestly agree Whit you to 100% altough, i dont think we ever will be "dead by daylight" beacuse if that happens, the entity will die. Just like you said, so a more fitting name would be: alive by daylight
She can always grab people from other realms and replace them, though. She finds weak points in a world, operates through killers to some extent, and expands her influence as she "swallows" the world. I don't recall her having just one finger in the pie in a manner of speaking, so she probably won't die as long as she can get her grubby claws somewhere.
I was truly and utterly flabbergasted when Dwight Fairfield said “We need to repair these generators, or we’ll all be DEAD BY DAYLIGHT.” Truly the moment of all time.
i loved when bill got himself off the hook and managed to escape while he was abandoned by the 3 other survivors. he said "i thought i was left 4 dead. guess i wasn't dead by daylight afterall" this scene was a roller-coaster of emotions
I'm watching this after Alan Wake got released & my brother told me his lore take place before Alan Wake 2 but it also take place after the first one which means the entity made a big mistake taking Alan Wake into the fog since Alan is very smart & show that there is a way to escape! This video honestly just proves that even more in my opinion
In other words: The Entity isn't harmed by the sun because it said so. It can make "fake" light all it wants but does decide to arm survivors with real lights to provide a sense of hope for them.
I think we should be dead by daylight. let me explain: I think it should be night on every map and as the game goes on, the sun comes up and when it fully comes up, the game ends. It's just an idea to make games shorter so killers can't drag the game on for an hour.
I think the name of the game implies more that the survivors will be dead by the time the sun rises ("dead by daylight" as "dead before daylight"), more that the daylight kills them
Ormond likely is at night, the weather just makes it look bright. Billy’s base lore says that, “the echo of a chainsaw can still be heard on those hot summer nights” which suggests that the time billy was taken was in the evening, which works with the lore and the map, which is in an early evening
The claim comes from all killers that can choose to “ignore the rules” by doing whatever they want, that is basically Myers with the tombstone addons or Pyramid Head with his game mechanics. By that logic, they could leave the Entity’s world whenever they wanted. I don’t agree much with this view, as I see The Entity almost like a God type of entity instead of the Biological entity it is supossed to be
@@MintSkull I agree, but I still like the idea that the entity is somewhat afraid of him. It would explain why he isn't punished for outright killing survivors, and it's fitting for one of the most iconic horror characters.
I can't wait for the upcoming movie to start with the survivors hiding from a killer and dwight then says "If we don't find a way out soon, we'll be Dead By Daylight" and then the entire crowd will clap
I've always thought of the Entity as being omnipresent and close to omniscient in its realms. However it doesn't see the future so it is still entertained and/or fed by the trials.
Best lore DBD video ive ever seen. I always thought. that in conclusion EVEN the player is part of the entity, because, who is the one who select what survivor or killer is played in a match? The action to bring whatever character (surv or killer) / item / offering is made by the player, so in the end, whoever plays DBD is also a part of the entity.
The sun used to come up when you left the trials in the old days, "dead by daylight" means you will be dead before you can see daylight again. But good video
I think that characters like Pyramid Head and Pinhead do have power over the entity. They follow its rules because its more like a mutual contact for them. For Pyramid head, killing is his whole job. The entity basically just employed him instead of enslaving him, so Pyramid boy obeys the rules of the entity. For Pinhead, torturing and inflicting pain is his whole job too. But for him, the entity's realm is more of just like an afternoon golf session rather than it is like other killers. Pinhead enjoys the trials, so he follows the rules. The entity just lets him stick around.
I always thought “dead by daylight” was a saying for the survivors, like when they first met the trapper/got into the realm they would have said “we’re going to be dead by daylight
I do not think the entity is unaware of size and distance of space objects. Since her powers are based on illusion, it makes sense not to scale something that they wont reach to find out anyway.
Pyramid head Can sacrifice survivors to himself via the cage of torment, and can kill survivors without permission from the entity with ease. It’s my belief that he could just ignore the entity, but chooses to cooperate since there’s no conflict of interest.
So in endgame collapse what's happening is you're getting closer to the spirit world whilst in the trial, and if you extend your stay long enough the entity forcefully brings you there? This is a guess but thoughts?
Yknow, when I was extremely new to the game I thought that when endgame collapse happened the sky would gradually get brighter as if it was turning to day (I was on cold wind when I thought this by the way, I didn't notice the bright sky was always bright until egc happened lol), and once it was fully daytime that's when the timer would run out and the survivors remaining would die. Hence the name "Dead by Daylight". Kinda wish it was actually the case
I've always had this headcanon that the entity isn't a spider, but rather, a crab. Carcinus (cancer) from Greek mythology, and the survivors need to find and/or resurrect Herakles/Hercules in order to kill it. I know, dumb but cool 😏
Quite an interesting headcanon. This makes some sense - if the Survivors really want to find a hero to defeat the Entity, then they must *hope* that they can win. And what does Entity feed on? Hope. The more so that the Entity can draw inspiration from the memories and imagination of the Survivors. This is how the Minotaur was born. If anyone remembered the Minotaur, maybe someone remembered this cancer?
Crazy I thought the exact same thing way before this video, glad I am not the only one who thinks this! Also I think the survivors are in a endless loop of surviving a trail and being killed...I imagine the entity wipes there memory when they survive a trail so they would have no idea they got away to only try do it again, same when they get killed, the Entity revives them and then wipes there memory, so he can harvest them over and over again.
My headcanon is that it's a simulation, e.g. the Entity is not reconstructing physical spaces but instead just mimicking these things to either brains or the copies thereof, networked in some sort of strange flesh (or souls in a spiritual) relay. That's why the distorted "memory of" things like the GIGANTIC TOILETS in Midwich exist, but also how elements of the trials can exist as they do: How can a slash of a hunting knife cause exactly the same amount of trauma as a giant bioweapon's fist? How can having a meathook go clean through multiple major blood vessels in the same shoulder two times in a row not result in rapid blood loss and death? Obviously, another answer is that the entity is just so wildly complex as a being it can restructure reality, but I would argue the ability to restructure human tissue rapidly already necessitates an intimate understanding that would render the trials pointless (just recreate a farm full of brains that have nothing but frayed nerves attached all day and another with nothing but pleasurable sensations - boom, done, no trials necessary). However, it seems plausible that it could understand enough to "network" some brains/souls together, or even make copies when they can't otherwise construct them from scratch, and then make them suffer/hope all you want. Another way to look at it: We can't (yet) create perfectly nutritious food in a factory from mixing together requisite chemicals, can't create a super crop by creating the genetic code molecule by molecule, but we CAN gather seeds and grow crops, then process them, and even breed/manipulate new strains that are more hardy or more productive. The Entity can't make humans from scratch, but can "farm" us for its emotional nutrition. Otherwise, it would exclusively make the most "nutritious" emotions it can rather than the less efficient manner in which it currently operates, and that wouldn't likely be kidnapping, copying, and stitching ruptured organs back together in real people moment-to-moment. It's basically a Lovecraftian multi-dimensional farmer, but not really a god.
3:21 Sadko never nuked New York, did she? For context, Pinhead in the original novelization (he's a she here) ended up nuking all of New York into a smoking crater.
i would like to point out that makes sense demogorgon get blinded by a flashlight even though it doesn't have eyes. we can see in Stranger Things season 2 that Demodogs (or anything from the Upside Down) burn under light
Honestly, this isn't even a theory, this is just facts, you got everything right here MintSkull, it simply makes sense, I always thought that the entity was making everything up herself out of what she's learned/observed, so why wouldn't she make her own "sun, moon, stars and sky"?

@@-_deploy_- But Wraith and Nurse are another thing with this theory because they can't use their powers when they are in a light of flashlight. Maybe they are closer to the Entity and their power is stronger but prone to light 🤔
@@sitruuna6979Wraith and Nurse have recently decided to put on sunscreen
Also metaphorical light. Kate was spat out of the realm because she didn't submit to the trial, being a saving light to other survivors. Only after being abandoned by the Entity, does she lose the light and become prime pickings for emotion.
Dwight Fairfield: "If we don't get any gens done, we'll be dead by daylight"
Me at the cinema: :'(
As Bruce Campbell so eloquently put it:
“So the goal is to then, NOT be dead by daylight? Right? Hahaha, words to live by.”
This was really interesting. I honestly agree Whit you to 100% altough, i dont think we ever will be "dead by daylight" beacuse if that happens, the entity will die. Just like you said, so a more fitting name would be: alive by daylight
She can always grab people from other realms and replace them, though. She finds weak points in a world, operates through killers to some extent, and expands her influence as she "swallows" the world. I don't recall her having just one finger in the pie in a manner of speaking, so she probably won't die as long as she can get her grubby claws somewhere.
Absolutely awesome theory! I wish DBD lore was deeper and explained more... perhaps you could cover The Archive entries too?
i remember back in the day, all maps had moons. then, mysteriously, maps stopped having moons. some maps even lost their moon.
I was truly and utterly flabbergasted when Dwight Fairfield said “We need to repair these generators, or we’ll all be DEAD BY DAYLIGHT.” Truly the moment of all time.
i loved when bill got himself off the hook and managed to escape while he was abandoned by the 3 other survivors. he said "i thought i was left 4 dead. guess i wasn't dead by daylight afterall" this scene was a roller-coaster of emotions
When the entity said, "its daylighting time" one of the most game moments ever
I'm watching this after Alan Wake got released & my brother told me his lore take place before Alan Wake 2 but it also take place after the first one which means the entity made a big mistake taking Alan Wake into the fog since Alan is very smart & show that there is a way to escape! This video honestly just proves that even more in my opinion
Burning the Spirits husk used to lightburn her out of phasewalking too
In other words: The Entity isn't harmed by the sun because it said so. It can make "fake" light all it wants but does decide to arm survivors with real lights to provide a sense of hope for them.
"Blinding killers is not instant"
Old Insta blind flashlights: Hold my beer.
When the its daylight and Cheryl uses Repressed Alliance
Entity: **dies**
The real entity was the friends we made along the way
I think we should be dead by daylight. let me explain: I think it should be night on every map and as the game goes on, the sun comes up and when it fully comes up, the game ends. It's just an idea to make games shorter so killers can't drag the game on for an hour.
Although I the ability to see things, the darker maps looked scarier
Way more scary, old Coldwind is soo creepy when I was recording it for this video and for The Hillbilly one as well!
I wish the flashlights showed your way through the darkness
I think the name of the game implies more that the survivors will be dead by the time the sun rises ("dead by daylight" as "dead before daylight"), more that the daylight kills them
I swore I was subbed already but I subbed again lmao, always love the videos keep it up
I appreciate that! Glad this video reminded you :D
2:53 technically blight can outrun being stunned
I want those bouquets back for Ghostface. I want to have survivors see a white Ghostly face traveling in the dark.
11:38 this dramatic ass chase with nemesis is so funny 😭
if the gravity is the entity too, then the entity is trying to pull felix's pants down all the time ;)
You always do superbe video, especially ones about theory in dbd. It’s very mind blowing and cool
these theory videos are really entertaining to watch. thank you!
Thanks for watching and you're welcome.
Night mode for coldwind farm, and Ormond who agrees?
No joke, a change in visuals to past maps would bring a lot of variety to the game
Ormond likely is at night, the weather just makes it look bright. Billy’s base lore says that, “the echo of a chainsaw can still be heard on those hot summer nights” which suggests that the time billy was taken was in the evening, which works with the lore and the map, which is in an early evening
@@MintSkull what happened to the fog in the maps. I notice as the game chapters progress there's less and less fog.
I'm sorry, but who says myers could beat the entity? The guy literally lost to some random dude in Halloween ends, even took his mask lol
The claim comes from all killers that can choose to “ignore the rules” by doing whatever they want, that is basically Myers with the tombstone addons or Pyramid Head with his game mechanics. By that logic, they could leave the Entity’s world whenever they wanted. I don’t agree much with this view, as I see The Entity almost like a God type of entity instead of the Biological entity it is supossed to be
I mean myers in dbd isn’t 65 years old
@@MintSkull I agree, but I still like the idea that the entity is somewhat afraid of him. It would explain why he isn't punished for outright killing survivors, and it's fitting for one of the most iconic horror characters.
Huge shout out to The Entity for dropping the Legion's fuming tape banger 😎
“Everything in the realm you touch, is the entity, except the flashlights, those are real”
I can't wait for the upcoming movie to start with the survivors hiding from a killer and dwight then says "If we don't find a way out soon, we'll be Dead By Daylight"
and then the entire crowd will clap
I've always thought of the Entity as being omnipresent and close to omniscient in its realms. However it doesn't see the future so it is still entertained and/or fed by the trials.
before i bought dbd i actually thought it would be a game where you avoided the sun
I mean, your thinking is true, it looks like all players that enjoy this game are avoiding the sun (Me included)
@@MintSkull fellow gamer i see
@@MintSkull makes sense with the lobby times increasing around the time the sun rises irl
When Day Breaks moment
Because the shareholders wanted more daylight maps!...............It's all I got, the crab clawed entity has to get them funds in somehow!
Best lore DBD video ive ever seen. I always thought. that in conclusion EVEN the player is part of the entity, because, who is the one who select what survivor or killer is played in a match? The action to bring whatever character (surv or killer) / item / offering is made by the player, so in the end, whoever plays DBD is also a part of the entity.
The sun used to come up when you left the trials in the old days, "dead by daylight" means you will be dead before you can see daylight again. But good video
I think that characters like Pyramid Head and Pinhead do have power over the entity. They follow its rules because its more like a mutual contact for them. For Pyramid head, killing is his whole job. The entity basically just employed him instead of enslaving him, so Pyramid boy obeys the rules of the entity. For Pinhead, torturing and inflicting pain is his whole job too. But for him, the entity's realm is more of just like an afternoon golf session rather than it is like other killers. Pinhead enjoys the trials, so he follows the rules. The entity just lets him stick around.
Yeah, I don't think he's stuck im the Entity's realm
"The entity is inside the killers"
Ayo what?
I always wondered if there are more then one ways the entity feeds off the fear of people. Like is the trails only one of it's many techniques?
Anyone else see a face at the moon at 16:59 ?
Imagine if Leviathan broke into the Entity's domain because it stole what belonged to it (Pinhead).
I always thought “dead by daylight” was a saying for the survivors, like when they first met the trapper/got into the realm they would have said “we’re going to be dead by daylight
This video was a wild ride, but very interesting. I never considered the fact that The Entity might be the one who's actually dead by daylight.
I do not think the entity is unaware of size and distance of space objects. Since her powers are based on illusion, it makes sense not to scale something that they wont reach to find out anyway.
Nice video buy I can't stop thinking about the red high vis horror legion outfit lmao
"But hey, this is just a theory... a GAME THEORY!"
HELP the way i noticed the music in the back was from silent hill but didnt know if i was hearing things or not but i love it
Love this video Man! Keep going! 💚💚
I had no idea that the flashlight could erase Hexes and Crows. Thanks for that info brotha 🤝
Nice vid keep it up
Thank you!
Brody out here askin the real questions
Wait so why is the flashlight here in the first place then?
Never thought of this, good vid 👌
Can u post more about gameplays ?
This was crazy good, very good job. Btw as someone who has played since jenuary 2017, very good job.
Pyramid head Can sacrifice survivors to himself via the cage of torment, and can kill survivors without permission from the entity with ease.
It’s my belief that he could just ignore the entity, but chooses to cooperate since there’s no conflict of interest.
Great video! Don't forget Artists crows can be removed with light!
So in endgame collapse what's happening is you're getting closer to the spirit world whilst in the trial, and if you extend your stay long enough the entity forcefully brings you there? This is a guess but thoughts?
Alr i was thinking about this at late night
Yknow, when I was extremely new to the game I thought that when endgame collapse happened the sky would gradually get brighter as if it was turning to day (I was on cold wind when I thought this by the way, I didn't notice the bright sky was always bright until egc happened lol), and once it was fully daytime that's when the timer would run out and the survivors remaining would die. Hence the name "Dead by Daylight". Kinda wish it was actually the case
The entity made a banger mixtape though. After the trials, the entity might be a music producer…as soon as it learns to actually sing.
Wow the light not existing makes so much sense now 😮I never thought of that
With the red stain I wish a detail was added where it would burn or singe the grass, mud, corn of the maps then repairing itself
I've always had this headcanon that the entity isn't a spider, but rather, a crab. Carcinus (cancer) from Greek mythology, and the survivors need to find and/or resurrect Herakles/Hercules in order to kill it. I know, dumb but cool 😏
Quite an interesting headcanon. This makes some sense - if the Survivors really want to find a hero to defeat the Entity, then they must *hope* that they can win. And what does Entity feed on? Hope. The more so that the Entity can draw inspiration from the memories and imagination of the Survivors. This is how the Minotaur was born. If anyone remembered the Minotaur, maybe someone remembered this cancer?
Crazy I thought the exact same thing way before this video, glad I am not the only one who thinks this! Also I think the survivors are in a endless loop of surviving a trail and being killed...I imagine the entity wipes there memory when they survive a trail so they would have no idea they got away to only try do it again, same when they get killed, the Entity revives them and then wipes there memory, so he can harvest them over and over again.
3:55 again,lawyers are the strongest characters in any fiction.
Very interesting theory! The "buts" got me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And now lightburn is being removed
My headcanon is that it's a simulation, e.g. the Entity is not reconstructing physical spaces but instead just mimicking these things to either brains or the copies thereof, networked in some sort of strange flesh (or souls in a spiritual) relay. That's why the distorted "memory of" things like the GIGANTIC TOILETS in Midwich exist, but also how elements of the trials can exist as they do: How can a slash of a hunting knife cause exactly the same amount of trauma as a giant bioweapon's fist? How can having a meathook go clean through multiple major blood vessels in the same shoulder two times in a row not result in rapid blood loss and death?
Obviously, another answer is that the entity is just so wildly complex as a being it can restructure reality, but I would argue the ability to restructure human tissue rapidly already necessitates an intimate understanding that would render the trials pointless (just recreate a farm full of brains that have nothing but frayed nerves attached all day and another with nothing but pleasurable sensations - boom, done, no trials necessary). However, it seems plausible that it could understand enough to "network" some brains/souls together, or even make copies when they can't otherwise construct them from scratch, and then make them suffer/hope all you want.
Another way to look at it: We can't (yet) create perfectly nutritious food in a factory from mixing together requisite chemicals, can't create a super crop by creating the genetic code molecule by molecule, but we CAN gather seeds and grow crops, then process them, and even breed/manipulate new strains that are more hardy or more productive. The Entity can't make humans from scratch, but can "farm" us for its emotional nutrition. Otherwise, it would exclusively make the most "nutritious" emotions it can rather than the less efficient manner in which it currently operates, and that wouldn't likely be kidnapping, copying, and stitching ruptured organs back together in real people moment-to-moment. It's basically a Lovecraftian multi-dimensional farmer, but not really a god.
3:21 Sadko never nuked New York, did she?
For context, Pinhead in the original novelization (he's a she here) ended up nuking all of New York into a smoking crater.
i would like to point out that makes sense demogorgon get blinded by a flashlight even though it doesn't have eyes. we can see in Stranger Things season 2 that Demodogs (or anything from the Upside Down) burn under light
The cenobites thrive off of suffering as pleasure do literally they're only doing it because they enjoy it rather than having to obide by the entity
Honestly, this isn't even a theory, this is just facts, you got everything right here MintSkull, it simply makes sense, I always thought that the entity was making everything up herself out of what she's learned/observed, so why wouldn't she make her own "sun, moon, stars and sky"?
The Pennywise joke cought me off guard not gonna lie 😂
where did you get that developer build that you used for the coldwind farm example at 16:04
Isn’t the entity also susceptible to infection with blight serum?
