Control? Really looking forward to seeing it all come together

Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy

I *cannot* wait that long!

Sounds like an Ordinary episode..

My eggs My eggs He begs he begs To be the father of my eggs

As of now that would easily be my second favorite lore dump

Saaaaaame PLEASE BOYS

I’m taking this comparison and running with it I love it so much

Well damn! Thank you!- Neil

@@LoreDump Okay but now you’ve gotta tag yourselves as the member of the batfam you’re most like. I expect your answers in the form of a single-spaced, four page essay lmao (I’m joking please god don’t actually write an essay y’all are already so busy oml)

So who's getting killed with a crowbar?

I totally agree

Poor children? They need to be alive for monetary value to be attached.

Paul found Will's time machine in a cave in the future, where Beth had exited it, and he repaired it after Beth had been trying to for "a long time". He ended up in the future via the University time machine, which had it's core moved to Monarch in the last act of the game into a Time Machine that they had built, which is how Jack travelled back to the University from Monarch. The end of time will happen in 2021, and Will's time machine will be moved from the Swimming pool at some point in those 5 years.

My comment ages very poorly after watching to the end lol

As someone who didn't play Quantum Break, would appreciate it if you could make a video on the significance of the code you mentioned, if it's video-material. And also I'd love to hear your opinion on timestap 2:21:10

It's a really cool theory, but at the same time, there is an actual mention of a "natural" time travel, which Mr Door/Hatch experienced. And seemingly, he also witnessed (and succumbed) to the end of time. And with Schrodinger's Cat, in the game it is basically presented as a fact - if event was observed, then it's set in stone, at least that's what everyone was trying to make Jack to understand. So, following this line, it is probably safe to assume that whatever was done in the events in the game is basically irrelevant since Hatch already was at the end of time, so it is already set in stone, and it probably doesn't matter which form of time travel occurred for it to be set. But, something that actually might contradict what we (and Jack) were told, and contradicts whole "fact" about unchanging time - why would Hatch do anything he does if he's certain that whatever happens, will bring the end of time. Unless it is not set in stone (and basically why game ends with question if Jack still believes that anything can be changed, still leaving this uncertainty), and that's why Hatch tries to actively get his way to actually make end of time happen. Leading to my theory - it is a fact that time cannot be changed and events that happened cannot "unhappen", BUT it is tied to the observer in a more literal way. Meaning, if every entity that observed the end of time (and maybe those who have chronon disease/powers) would be destroyed in "current" time, it would "uncollapse" that potentiality of quantum waveforms, or whatever, which would mean that future would never happen as there's nothing left which "pins" it. It doesn't tie in that well into the Schrodinger's Cat explanation, since you can't really close the box and make the fate of the cat uncertain again, but in a way that's basically destroying anything that would open the box/keeps the box open, which probably would mean, as I see it, box closing and the content again becoming uncertain for anyone who wasn't a direct observer, as they don't know 100% what's in there, they were only told about it. Maybe, in some way, more accurate analogy would be particle-wave nature of photons - when they're unobserved, they behave as a wave, leaving pattern of "probabilities", and when they are observed or measured they end up in pattern of behavior as particles. So basically, removing "observers" of the particles would set them back to being waves, bringing back wave pattern behavior, and probabilities with uncertainties. So for improbable, but potential sequel it would mean finding a way to destroy Hatch "for good", maybe Paul coming back as a shifter and getting rid of him as well, and Jack trying to rescue Beth in some way, but eventually not succeeding in it and learning that to truly close the loop he would need to also take himself out, too (or to make it extra tragic, being forced to take out Beth "for good" as well as she also was at the end of time). And probably also a way to get rid of those gathered chronon particles/time machines cores, and whatever else it can be in. And I think it also could, to some extent, explain the junctions that happen with Paul (and teased with Jack) - since Paul (and noone from "current" timeline, except maybe Hatch) didn't observe the events between 2016-2021, he doesn't know exact events which would happen, only that end of time will happen, and a rough point when it will be, and it's reflected on his predictions board - it's a "blur" after 2016 as that's what he plans/assumes what happens there, so the box for those events is closed for him specifically, and chronon powers basically can give him a "peek" at what could happen (as they weren't set by anyone or anything yet). As for the cause of end of time, I think it's something in-between time traveling in general, and an incident similar to what happened in 2016, but set in the future - general time travel sets in stone via Hatch that end of time will happen (which hypothetically could be prevented by example above), but actual end of time is caused by man-made solution - speculating on the end teaser, I would imagine that Hatch could trick Jack into either pursuing rescuing Beth (and sabotaging it, causing 2016 incident all over again), or maybe even building a new device which would specifically make end of time happen (with promise of ability to actually change the past, or some bs like that). It sort of relies too much on Hatch being an active force, and being probably somewhat of a cliché, but with Paul gone, and Hatches nature being explained to some degree, maybe already too much was given away for me to come up with some more clever motivation (as well as with theory above).

That's interesting. Thanks for sharing. Also totally forgot about those experiments with photons and how they change under observation or measurement. And the fact that the whole game hinges on the idea of chronon particles could be a hint to that. Perhaps they are actually chronon waves.

I’m glad that I’m not the only one.

Make sure you tweet Nissan with a link to the episode if you buy one ;)

That's so nice, I hope you had a wonderful day- thanks as always for your lovely comment- Neil
