The Mystery of Employee 234

[cerebro]

While i played a little further into the game today I considered the developers clue to more endings... "Up". I linked this to the elevator in the bosses office, and while that certainly must lead nowhere (or does it?) I couldnt help but ponder what the whole "2, 3, 4..." in the elevator music. It was the narrator saying it aswelll, could it just have been him numbering dance moves as he boogied to the groovy tune? I did not want to believe that, it had to be more complicated, there had to be some meaning to this sequence of numbers. I first tried using 234 on the keypad in the bosses office but no sequence was to any avail. I then tried to do it in the mind control facility, again there was nothing, neither before or after the detonation began. But then I thought harder, and I realised that 234 was one of the employee numbers in the game, so I went back to the monitor room and looked for 234's screen. I was greeted with something I dont know what to think about and luckily nabbed 2 screenshots of the monitor; I will post them below.

Many people on Internet think it's just a reference to Employee 432.

Have anyone tried to see 234's monitor while it's showing its office ?

Yeah the camera appears at a bit of a wierd angle... Is 234 alive? Is he as aware as Stanley is? Is he that guy you sometimes see walking around when you leave the office fast enough?

Has anybody made sense of the symbols yet?

No idea.

Don't want to bother you guys, but I'm pretty sure people data mined this game so much that the possibility of another ending is non existant. My only theory with no back up evidence is that Employee 234 is the person in the 'Not Alone' easter egg.

Knowing the Stanley Parable, the files are so randomly placed and arranged, they could be somewhere you least expect it to be.

Again, after all these years I'm pretty sure every last file was data mined.

Then again, we don't entirely know. Who knows what the devs could be hiding?

I take it nobody has found anything in the long time this thread has been up? Are there even offices for employees in the 200's visible in the map?

maybe we’ll get an answer in Ultra Deluxe

Did anybody else notice the glitchy effects are the same color as the Missingno glitch from Pokemon Red/Blue? And yeah, we're definitely getting an answer in Ultra Deluxe.
