The fact that the terminals are sentient was actually foreshadowed when the Titanic flips over, at the "end" of the level (the start before it flipped), you can see the terminal flipped to the floor, with the message: "Ow."

I trust Terminal-kun. Who cares that they want entertainment in exchange for fair and proper remuneration? They're cute, too shy to sing in front of others and literally the only entity in Hell that serves as an ally to the player. I cherish them.

I had a theory that Hell has taken control of the Terminals and terminal-like tech. Both Hell and the Terminals are looking for entertainment, the Terminals look for fresh information which Hell can provide, and Hell would probably enjoy the Cybergrind that the Terninals created. A few things that made me believe this theory is the fact the Terminals have data on things humanity wouldn't have discovered, and thus no machine would know. The fact Hell is handing you weapons. It could also give you them to make the show more entertaining, then when you have those new weapons, makes you want to perform better to get variations from the Terminals. It hands you the revolver before teleporting in filths, takes Swordsmachine away drom you when you get the shotgun, illuminates where the nailgun rests, and if you miss it, it materializes it further on, brings you to the locations of both the railcannon and rocket launcher. It just seems TOO convenient. Plus, something that really sells it, is the Tip of the Day from P-2 and the second lock terminal before the Flesh Panopticon / Sisyphus Prime. "Have Fun" shows up not only as the Tip of the Day, but also as the final part of the protocol you're given when chosing *Yes* for "Are you sure?". Its written in a distinctly different style than the rest of the text, and choosing *No*, something that Hell would not want you to do, for it wants entertainment, it laughs at your face, telling you that you didnt have a say in the matter, and opens the boss door anyway. Both results have aspects that you wouldn't expect if this was a solid security system, not to mention they both feel very similar to the text we can presume is directly FROM Hell itself in the text we got drom the ARG.

youre mistaking this "manipulate others for personal entertainment" with hell itself (source from p-2 arg), terminals are actually symbiotically working with other machines stuck in hell because they have boredom, a lack of new information entering their databases they share with each other through hell, they record the machines battle for survival and rate their stylishness in the score you see in game after completing a level, then it is rewarded with their made up currency called points, which they use to trade goods and services such as weapons and coloring weapons, and unless youre thinking each terminal is already corrupted by the living hell entity, this is all just absurd in the video.

I like to think that since the terminals and Hell share the same goal, they have started to cooperate P-2 terminals have the tip of the day being "Have fun." while the warning before the PANOPTICON seems to have its last line changed *by hell* to be "h a v e f u n"

Since Hell is alive, makes you wonder what or WHO gave that infernal dimension of damnation sentience? 1. Did God/The Father/Yod give Hell a free will? 2. Did Lucifer attach his consciousness to Hell's lifeless "body"? 3. Did the Terminals in Hell give Hell sentience? Heck, now that Hell is alive, could Heaven be alive as well?

@@doctorhealsgood5456 Yeah. For me, 2 is likely the possibility. Hell as a dimension never got a sentience to begin with, but it is a system tethered to the Terminals the humans installed within. Despite being a system, it never had free will. That is until Lucifer attached his consciousness to Hell’s soulless system, not only giving Hell a free will, but becoming Hell itself. As Hell, Lucifer was able to see everything, do whatever he wants with the technology for entertainment, gain knowledge through the Terminal archives, improving and spreading the Hell Terminal’s technology, and control every machine’s system tethered to the Terminal. Lucifer became omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient. The Father would’ve regret his decision of sending his beautiful firstborn to Hell as of now, because as the dimension of Hell, Lucifer is powerful enough to solo the armies of Heaven.

the thing i gather from these lore snippets (alongside the whole lore that the violence layer brought) is that, when the final war ended, machines had lost their purpose. they were made for war, and yet they we're now being used to do what, to them, seemed like inane tasks, such as exploring hell and rebuilding civilization. when hell noticed its human "guests" it began to study and communicate with these machines. it likely tasked them with eradicating mankind, so that their souls would end up trapped in hell forever, and in exchange, it would provide them an endless war, violence and blood and suffering and death, forever. this is all speculation tho
Something I haven't heard anyone mention but I think is important is that the terminals are implied to be fueled by blood as well. I think we're going to see that the reason various machines possess an apparent consciousness is because they are fueled by blood.

holy shit yesterday i was watching all your videos and i read a comment about this one, i was hyped for it, im glad it came out so soon!
So v1 being a go pro is fucking canon since he records each and every one of his fights
This theory would make sense because if you noticed between the different acts it gives you an option between returning the the menu or inserting the next TAPE
The UAC's teleportation experiments and their expeditions into Hell feels like a mercy compared to this.
yea yea yea, hell is sentient living being and the terminals can teleport through the levels and are literally watching us and evaluating our performance and style system are a literally canon part of the lore, but what i saw was ultrakill vr and I need to know how
Is the Angel mentioned in Testament IV Gabriel? He held positive sentiments towards the Ferrymen husks, particularly the individual he personally saved from the swelling waves of the Styx, and IIRC he plead (to the Council at the very least, if not to God directly back in the era the Father was still around for) for them to be given grace and be allowed into Heaven for their devotion to the task they were given.

Anything that is in the game can be canon, official and/or something that happened in-universe. With this mindset, the stupid, puny and daft P-2 ARG is strictly not canon, since it's outside of the game, but Garry Newman existing in-universe, V1 shitting on player's decision of playing armless and there being some creature that augments other creatures are probable facts. Great and simple mindset, as you see.

Man ULTRAKILL is deep...
i don't believe that act 3 will be the end, like, v1 doesn't want to destroy hell, he wants blood. so he will go to another place after killing everything in hell, like heaven eventually killing god if he is alive as his last victim to then slowly turn off because of lack of energy. i imagine a final god fight where god doesn't fight back at all and is more of a near endless bloodsac that eventually spit his last drop of blood letting v1 as the last thing alive for as long as it can run itself on battery.
me understanding the terminal like: *so they're using the machines as twitch live and giving weapons as subscriptions,F**KING GENIUS*
We don't play we record, the style meter the recordings the discs after the acts we are not V-1 we are the terminals watching it Kill and kill again
what's the first song you used in the video?

I wondered the same thing. loaded up 2-4 to check the ambience for myself, and im not hearing the same tune. The song in the video almost sounds "ethereal" in its tone while In the Presence of a King sounds more like a haunting fall from grace kind of vibe. Very similar but not the same track. unless it was edited for the video
I feel like the terminals could be lying to us. Its possible
Tbh the fact that god didn't just give his angels some superweapons and told them to destroy hell was kinda stupid
Maybe the Terminal doesn't want to sing because the Machine never heard human voices?
Hi Chroma, was there a reason why your reactions on Ultrakill new videos are not up anymore?
In testament 2 I believe it means that god is creating new versions of humanity and they all keep killing themselves off because he fails to create them without free will.
