I mean, Mike is barely a character. Hes more like a code terminal :|

fucking hate it when people do this kind of shit where they don't show *any* screenshots

oh u started a discussion
nvm. But thanks for the help, thx for compiling it all. Im just kinda stupid :P

All you need to know is in the comments, M.I.K.E is basicaly like a code terminal. I reccomend you check out all the comments but if u dont want to I can compile all the codes into a comment for u.

Alright, Because no one made a discussion I compiled all the information and things I have noticed personally when messing around with it. If you are looking for compiled information it is there.

Hey can someone start a discussion with all of the information we know about this thing because I am mighty confused

both ig

I mean, you CAN attack with him.

is this a fighter or an arg JESUS CHRIST

wait! if anybody here has gotten discord dms from meta plz tell us! I dont have discord :(

THIS JUST IN! its a buddy that does nothing to my knoledge, but if u want to see for yourself its called the magic typewriter.

u might be onto something

the yt pfp for the end video has a mario pfp

WAIT!

worth a shot I guess
Ill look for hints.

broski, its mario teaches typing: of course theres a typewriter

GUYS
I SEARCHED MARIO AND CLICKED ON A MARIO HEAD CHARACTER, at the end of the vide for the mod he was advertising a typewriter character where you can type stuff
maybe there are more codes there

i think we'd need more info for whos mind we are infiltrating however theyre definitely in some way connected to the abyss and whatever the hell the eye thing was

sooo now what? Whos mind are we infiltrating?

Almulescent, and to think I didnt trust you!

listen i was very tired at the time it aint my fault i act drunk as hell when eepy anyways what if M.I.K.E stood for mind infiltration kill engine because of the thought not found error message and the correct prompts are actual memories which make M.I.K.E break during the "do you trust your eyes" segment because its actually attempting to erase somebodys memory thats basically ingrained into the mind, like trauma

Almuescent, and to think I trusted you!

Don't see it being a cocoon

man can I have some of what ur on? If it was a cocoon then the eye goop monster would be, not goop :P I mean it MIGHT be some strange evil yolk or somethin but im not buyin it.

what if MIKE isn't actually a being in a computer? what if it's a cocoon or an egg that's like a computer and when it does the whole eyes segment the eye thing that was in it was actually what was growing inside the terminal

Im thinking either mind infiltration or memory infiltration, mainly thanks to the error message when you put in an invalid input "Error 404: thought not found." but man in might also be a good option. Either way, theres a lil guy in this pc.

I wonder if the name is an actual anagram & if it has a significant meaning. I don't know what K.E. could stand for but I do have some ideas for M.I.

I greatly doubt mikes an exe, I think mike is its own thing that is possibly related to the abyss. But that point made about the human skin rugs does kinda makes sence. Im probably being a bit shalow but if mike is liked to anything I thought it would be dark mater from the kirby games. But now im starting to think we might get another blue rat!

theres more evidence this could be a sonic.exe based/just sonic.exe, as he usually infects a computer and is described as a "dark matter entity" on the 2011x wiki page and was literally born in the void. this could also go the pillar chase 2 route and have it be a new take on sonic.exe, like 2017x and lord x. the phrase "burn down your preconceptions" could also reference 2017x's area thats meant to be a burning city, presumably crisis city, however im not sure about any of these, as some may be just guesses with possible theorys as to what it could be. also, human skin rugs could be referencing fox skin/fur rugs, which means it might be tied in with tails, a regular victim in the sonic.exe stories, and sometimes is an actual human soul trapped in the game that took control of tails.

@DrizzyDragon: His compatibility coding for Kirby does set him to give Kirby the Abyss ability if Kirby eats him (even though he can't) & his victory theme seems to reference Bar-Kun's Rivals of Ather mods instead of referencing Undertale, Deltarune, or Five Nights at Freddy's so it's not out of the question.

WAIT! almuscent has a point.
Its kind of a stretch but I think the next character will be linked to the abyss, mainly thanks to the fact its an eye with tendrils. And the "do you trust your eyes?" Segment can link to how the abyss copys the fighters and takes their form. I dont really know how a pc ordering human skin rugs fits in with the rest of the theroy but its the best one I got rn.

guess we waiting then.

I know its part of a arg but this character doesn't have any moves from what I can tell and that kinda takes the fun away, like it's a fighting game, not a puzzle game.

oh my god one of metas messages is "patience is virtue" and sonic is usually impatient. im puffing that copium rn for a sonic.exe mod ngl

ok odd theory but what if eyes being important and transforming M.I.K.E to that weird eye thing is related to the final boss of the story mode in rivals, which is just eyes. what else is connected to the eyes? the abyss mode. the abyss mode is usually related to the darker greys, blacks and purples, and if you mix that with the "do you trust your eyes?" which can be relating to a fake person, theres only two routes for this. either its something related to sonic.exe, most importantly 2017x, or its something related to the alternates from the mandela catalogue.

yippee! thanks rosar :D

Also playing as spamton breaks m.i.k.e.'s text box lol

There are a lot of references to the 5 senses in this arg, and typing nasus gives a small nod to novichok gas, therefore, someone, presumably mike, had their senses taken from them due to novichok gas weakening their nervous system (Including the nerves used for breathing) .

hello updating the steam comment section, certain people have been getting dms from Meta on discord with certain ominous sentences.
Patience is Virtue and burn down you preconceptions is one of em,,, seems like we may need to wait but the arg might continue,,?

I know im just huffin some hopeium rn but I rly hope that the eye thing that might be a new character, has his own little mini arg. And even if im late here, there will always be more to come :)

this is trash, sorry

Seems the upper case letters spell out Nasus which I searched up and it seems to be a league of legends character.

Cant wait for some random youtuber to solve this mess and make a 2hr long video explaining how deep it is and blah, blah, blah.

im too dumb for this arg stuff

im going to explode

@Jesse: Oh. Lorem ipsum stuff is usually just filler words so I wasn't expecting it to have such a noticeable relation to some of the other stuff M.I.K.E says.

It's latin. Putting it into google translate I got "Nor, moreover, is anyone who wants to suffer, because pain is to be loved, to be pursued, to be gained," but I think someone more keen on this stuff got a more accurate translation earlier in the comment section.

just googled the word cutis and all i can find is a thin outer layer of skin, also what does "Neque porro quisquAm eSt qUi dolorem ipSum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit." mean? i tried to chipher and reverse it but it doesnt work

wtf is this character you cant even attack with him

Could the "u1b" at the end of the Youtube's @ be something?
