#builderman's rants

Y O U

ok ok ok so hi everyone its metashades. i just played through demo four with chur (@greedy4tix) and HOLY SHIT MY JAW IS ON THE FLOOR. it answered some questions and raised a whole plethora of new ones. i just wanna ramble about some theories i have and the cannon slightly shifting for this blog.

wait isnt there two buildermen now??

the pre-prologue got released and well, i have a shit ton of questions.

if david baszuki / builderman was kidnapped in the present then brought to the past, then WHERE IS PAST BUILDERMAN??? SHOULDN'T HE BE FINE SINCE THE SHADY GUY ONLY ATTACKED PRESENT BUILDERMAN??? OR DID THE SHADY GUY KIDNAP PRESENT BUILDERMAN, GO BACK IN TIME, KIDNAP THE PAST BUILDERMAN AND JUST HAS BOTH OF THEM LOCKED UP IN A BASEMENT SOMEWHERE????

HOW DOES PAST SHEDLETSKY KNOW ABOUT PRESENT BUILDERMAN BEING KIDNAPPED??? IN HIS PERSPECTIVE THAT SHIT JUST HASN'T HAPPEN YET.

ALSO SPEAKING OF SHEDLETSKY

SHEDLETSKY IS EXREMELY SUSPICOUS

a kind person on the blocktales askblog dc pointed this out to me and i've been spiraling ever since.

theres alot of evidence suggesting that telamon is shedletsky. (which makes sense cause they're both the same person in real life too.)

first of all they share the same font colour

and secondly shedletsky insinuates that HE own's the haunted manor. you know the haunted manor TELAMON owns???

what makes this interesting is that people like the ghost chef view telamon and shedletsky as two different people

the only explanation to this that shedletsky is hiding the fact that he is telamon. which means he's LYING TO OUR FACE about being to injured to help us directly on our quest. if he was able to save kitchen wizard and jim as telamon, WHY ISN'T HE HELPING US ON OUR ARGUABLY MORE IMPORTANT QUEST?? IS HE AVOIDING INTERACTING WITH THE SWORDS??

WHY DID HE LEAVE THE FIREBRAND ABANDONED FOR SO LONG??

WHO MADE THESE SWORDS IN THE FIRST PLACE??? ALOT OF PEOPLE (INCLUING ME) ASUMED SHEDLETSKY FORGED THEM BUT IF NOT HIM THEN WHO?? AND IF IT WAS HIM WHY IS HE SO FUCKING INCOMPETENT AT HANDLING THEM??

also this bit of dialogue is weird:

(this man is gonna pull a sans undertale on us at the end of the game omg.)

oh god the vices are part of all the sfoth wielder's psyches.

it's been a theory / hc of mine that the vices are not just limited to the player's mind, but they are part of the minds everyone who used a sword. and well this is has been all but confirmed at this point.

"This is because Greed, Hatred, Solitude, and Fear are the most common and the most powerful emotions experienced by the wielders."

GREED:

the only reason catain trotter went down into the temple of the red sun is for cash after all. even if this was to provide for his crew, his greed costed him everything.

and well the ancients straight up just calls captain trotter greedy.

SOLITUDE:

i have strong evidence that both mayor thyaniel and griefer suffer from this vice the most.

thyaniel is the one i have the most evidence for. he just admits he his position as a guardian makes him feel isolated from his peers.

griefer i have far less evidence for im just purely going off of vibes.

he just gives off the vibe of a hikiomori shut in. his room is a mess and it's located in the middle of buckshit nowhere far away from the town.

FEAR:

the cruel king is clearly paranoid about blackrock's destruction.

HATRED:

though hatred doesn't have one particular wielder representing it (if you exclude the player) all the other wielders showed signs of suffering from it's influence.

cruel king hated us because he believed we would bring doom upon his kingdom.

griefer was kinda just an ass to everyone, especially his dad.

and captain trotter hated us for betraying him for the firebrand and for getting his crew killed.

anyways
