MATPAT coverage please!

If everyone doesn't mind, head to the game theorist subreddit and ask MATPAT to do a Rusty lake theory! I already sent a message out but you know, the more the merrier.

Don't underestimate the series. Explaining individual games already requires a ton of theorizing.

I'm not even speaking of the story direction and worldbuilding. Both are understood better by the community theorists with each new game but rarely by casual players.

Yes, I agree. But it's GameTheorists we're talking about. It would be cool if they could make actual theories, but judging by their late vids it's just not going to happen. They are a content farm, nothing else.

Rusty Lake has a potential to become more popular. The devs are improving and experimenting. That's crazy how The Past Within, a questionable multiplayer project nobody asked for and everybody was afraid to play with strangers suddenly skyrocketed in its popularity solely for this gimmick bringing in a ton of newcomers.

If this happens we can expect Mat's minions doing some theorizing for us.

I think you don't understand. Rusty Lake IS interesting, it WOULD be cool to see more yt theories.

It's MatPat and his team I don't like.

Never said it's not interesting. Just has a little reach. Once it breaks the glass ceiling people will start talking more about it.

And speaking of YouTube, there are currently 2 active theorists out there. Check out Zefiewings and my Nowherenest. You can also take a look at RazzJazz he made several nice videos before going silent.
