Game Theory: We Were TOTALLY WRONG! What Bendy's Ending REALLY Meant (Bendy and the Ink Machine)

Hi MatPat! There's just one thing I don't get about this: Henry's body. In the little room with Allison and Tom at the beginning of chapter five, shining the light on the bed Henry was on shows a coffin - Henry's coffin. Throwing me off a bit, why would Henry draw that in such a place if his body is at his desk?

The real question is who is Linda? And how does she fit into all this?

the dark revival explains more with its own lore, too......................................................

“It’s the very obviously titled texture pack named props zero underscore SHD hyphen mat hyphen underscore MainTex hyphen atlas zero”

Yes very obviously titled

Does anyone know the name of the song in the background?

the new intro was honestly amazing and a welcome surprise. The instrumentation was great, and "Mario"'s design was likable, though I expected a more colloquial animation than such an erratically smooth movement. After all, this is Game Theory.

Ever done stuff on the ARG Liminal Land? There's a ton of lore in that.

In my eyes, Sammy Lawrence is actually a bit of an anomaly. In the first game (BATIM) he doesn’t have a note like Allison, Tom or Wally (as long as I’m aware) but he also doesn’t have a name tag through the lense of truth on any of the coffins. Plus in Bendy and the dark revival (note this is in the future lol 😅) when Alice shot him with the tummy gun, his body stays intact as we leave as beast bendy. But in Bendy and the ink machine, if you do see his corpse for just long enough, he actually disintegrates through ink like a lost one, searcher, and brute Boris. Not to even mention that he is connected to Audrey and Porter in some way through the flow ability, and Heidi through the teleport ability. And in BATDR (again in the future 😂) in the archives they point out that he does have the flow ability. Now I am not a big, big, big bendy lore nerd, I just really like Sammy Lawrence, and I need more Bendy theories about him!!! But no pressure at all. And if you read this Matpat, hope you have an amazing day! 😊😊

I was just watching the part of the video where he is talking about the two sets of characters. But Sammy is missing from both sets.

William Afton: kills kids
Joey Drew: kills grownups

U is for U and me, N is for aNywhere and aNytime at all in the deep blue sea

Honestly I think the first endong theorybmakes nore sense this one seems more of a ramshackled mess

Ayo what is he pushing

“ U is for you and me! N is for anywhere, and anytime at all, down here in the deep blue sea!”

To the guy who did the captions: Your welcome

U is for u and me~

Wait, two characters in Indie franchises named “Henry” who die at their desks? The other Henry is in FNAF.

The intro remake is amazing!

Okay, I need the full extended cut of that jazzy intro.

What was with Sammy then?? He didn't have a coffin or letter..

He said "but" hahaha

U is for "Uberlândia podia ter sido a sede da Uber no Brasil"
N is for "Not gonna lie, I think the subtitles were written by a brazillian because of the laugh that was written"

:)

this is the first video i saw of this chanel and i loved it ever since thank you matpat

Honestly the most entertaining part of this theory upon rewatch is the captions. They are hilarious and whoever writes them needs a raise

So with your saying bendy never met Henry

Goodbye matpat😭😭😭

I like that you put ertyez in there my first favorite put in my second favourite

Great add ons for the captions! Loved it! ❤😂😂

Rewatching this and I LOL'd just now when MatPat said "Need more proof?" since I've been hearing FuhNaff say that so many times in his videos.

Sorry being late but i think when henry says joey name may be he is shockd by joey know henry is going to play the recording

i feel like bendy isnt joey still like the voice line was henry reacting to hearing joey or instead it might’ve been a vision of joey be a vision like seen in batdr

Did you know that the Creator of bendy and the ink machine? They actually had a studio named Joey Drew studio studio mobile and Google where you download it and actually see it says Joey Drew studio

I have a theory: know that big hand in ch5? Well in ch4 when you see the busher gang but you can only use the opened cans to distract them? Well if you look up there is a
Big hand with no ink on it so my theory is after you beat boris the hand gets out of its captivity and goes through the floor into the inky tunnlesand getting ink on it they look identicel in size too exept for the ink with was put all over it after it whent in the inky tunnles so my theory is: the hand from the busher gang can part is the hand from ch5 (im so big brain)

"much more deader" shows John Marston you made my day

OH OH OH

i wanna add another detail to the discussion
you said only characters without souls melt away into ink
but buddy boris actually DOES have a soul
his name was daniel lewik aka buddy
and he got baited by joey and turned into boris, then eventually boris took over his mind
it's in the book dreams come to life
i know you probably already knew that but i just wanted to say that
i havent watched the more recent videos yet

wait i also realized- doesn't sammy dissolve when he dies?
shouldn't that mean he doesn't have a soul?
but in dreams come to life, its revealed he drank too much ink and turned into that ink monster

I love how when you see the meatly drawing in game and you use the lens of truth there’s the message devilishly handsome on the wall behind it

Kudos Dream Fisher! 👏👏👏🥳🥳🥳

Everyone ignored the captions -

Batdr confirms this theory

U is for you and me (watch with captions)

As much as I don't want to believe it, I think this theory is true
