Submachine was making advert for Nike's shoes, just like I-Robot did with Converse's.Sublevel 105 wrote:oh my
every time when I rewatch Sub2 outro (3120th time I guess) I ask myself "does Player wears Nike shoes?.."
You're talking about an unstable portal here.18/12/2010-4 wrote:3. he also could have been transported in time (remember ending of sub2? it says: did I travel too far, or too early). too early could mean that the lighthouse teleports not only to the outer rim but also 32 years into the past. After 32 years of searching murtaugh is finally ready to return to the core. And in the core it's one day before einstein disappears.
wowThe thoughts we hear in the outro video are those of Murtaugh. The feet we see are Murtaugh's feet. We're seeing through his eyes. And we get to see that as a player because somehow, in drawing the unstable, unrefined portal, he left an 'imprint' of those thoughts behind.
I really like that theory!Sublevel 105 wrote:wowThe thoughts we hear in the outro video are those of Murtaugh. The feet we see are Murtaugh's feet. We're seeing through his eyes.

Two lighthouses and two roots is a possibility. I think this note from Sub8 backs it up a bit:Jatsko wrote:So, did the Lighthouse not leave the Core? (which would make sense, because then the Root would also have to leave the Core.)
But then, how did Sub5 take place? Clearly outside the Core. In the Subnet. Unless Subs 1-6 was just a big round trip, but that doesn't sit well with me.
So possibly, there are...two lighthouses? Two Roots? One inside the Core, one outside? But that doesn't seem possible either...
...
Origin being anything from the core. Flawed copy being anything from the outer rim. The architects of the plan created everything in the Core of the subnet, but SHIVA created everything in the outer rim. So its possible SHIVA created a flawed lighthouse and flawed root. Maybe the flawed lighthouse is what we visit in Submachine 5? But then where is the flawed root?- "Doesn't he understand that his karma portals are shattering this dimension?"

Does this mean that the third layer is a flawed copy of another layer?Quote:

I'd say yes.Jatsko wrote:(Is it safe to say that the Lighthouse and the Root are physically connected?)
Wasn't the Fifth the "original" layer or something? With all the others being somehow copies, or creations. I'm now starting to wonder if this one quote implies that the "flawed" layers are, to some extent, unimportant when compared to the origin. Almost as if they didn't matter. Could this mean that new Layers may appear at some point, or perhaps be rebuilt, and that damage caused to the origin is irreversible, or that is might reflect on its copies?Jatsko wrote:Does this mean that the third layer is a flawed copy of another layer?Quote:

This rings a bell:TD wrote:and that damage caused to the origin is irreversible
The third layer is irreversible, not necessarily the fifth.Fate of the third wrote:Murtaugh was originally from the third layer, therefore there was nothing he could do to bring it back to the unbroken state. He often spoke about it as being a thorn in his heart.
