My take on the theory: the player isnt human
So, basically i dont FULLY agree with this, but it is interesting to think about. The human brain and body (irl) react to Poppy Alkaloids (poppy gas) with: Analgesia (pain relief) Sedation and drowsiness Euphoria (in high doses) and slowed breathing (respiratory depression), with mild nausea, moderate confusion and lethargy, and in extreme cases, loss of consciousness, a coma, seizures, and cardiac arrest. I don't know if you have noticed, but we have been put through at least 5 mild cases of red gas, and a couple extreme cases, such as when we got our gas mask taken off in chapter 3, and we were trapped in home sweet home, during the catnap chase and fight, when we met with Huggy at the end of c4, and when we were in lily's house during the prototypes showing. a sub-theory I had to this theory is that if this is true then maybe we were a normal human worker, but we got turned into an experiment, or maybe our brain and body were tampered with to withstand more.
BUT HEY, THATS JUST A THEORY!
