Ultrakill - The Mirror Test

I found like a analogue horror lookin kit, and since it was free, i desided to make a whole video bout it.

i feel like the skeleton and owl would canonically ask about why theres just a mirror there or something

I like to imagine that this is like one of the last living Humans and they're just trapped in hell, still stuck working their job and just making stupid vhs tapes of whatever random experiment they could think to do so that they don't go insane.

i like to imagine gabriel practices his lines in the mirror in case someone waltzes too far into hell and he has to stop them

The Mindflayer checking herself out in the mirror is accurate. Especially the titlecard.

[stargost]

"Die!" *Explodes the entire room.*

[ultrio]

This video is epic, I loved the idea of the mirrorτ test on ULTRAKILL enemies. However
I don't think Cerberus should have attacked the mirror, as even if he doesn't recognize himself, he would still recognize his beloved brethren.

[borggeddude]

i like how this implies that every enemy is an idiot

[Weegie]

mind flayer's title card seems accurate lol

[mattiguess]

Something about the husks is kinda terrifying to think about
They used to be humans and their reactions feel almost human sometimes
It's like the souls of the damned are actually interacting with the mirror and seeing what they've become
Instead of an ai shooting a block of glass and suddenly freezing in place

Really well made, I like the detail at 2:30 where the mirror gets thicker or is surrounded by protective glass after the Sisyphean Insurrectionist incident, nice detail!

The implication that there’s a “Improved” class suggests that mirror tests have been done multiple times before with apparently lower or varying results.

—But what I find amusing is that this ALSO suggests that Gabriel, Minos, Sisyphus, and the Virtue(s) have scored lower before and may have learned how a mirror works promptly soon after the first tests.

The idea of Gabriel being summoned upon a mirror and immediately trying to beat the shit out of it out sheer instinct is amusing, especially since in the video it’s displayed Gabriel may still have resentment towards the mirror/his own reflection or towards the people testing his intelligence.

Seems like something aperture science would do if they were in hell

[zazopinka]

7:14 "hmm"
Dies immediately

Lore-wise, most enemies should be neutral toward each other except machines. Machines are a threat to everything in hell, including other machines. All machines have simplified video processing excluding sentries. As such, it's safer for them to eliminate the possible threat before verifying the validity of a mirror. Obviously for gameplay purposes, there is no infighting.

I thought the Insurrectionist would be a little smarter... but when angels slice you in half most of your brain function would probably be gone, I guess it works.

The v1 / v2 is literally just him experiencing ptsd

[SirSerSor]

i really.. really like the fact that the streetcleaner went for the tree instead.

[rbjzdrl]

i laughed so hard at minos prime part, he literally said "die" to himself in a mirror and realised it

[amprolikeyou]

I don't think Cerb's will attack other Cerb's as they seem to get angry when one of the other dies.
