So, What happened to akers?

[⚜Hamiradon⚜]

Because of how often the second creature at theta shows up, i assumed it was because they were the three "Proxies" that akers brought with him, but in that case, what happened to akers himself?

[Reaptor]

If Im not mistaken, Akers IS one of the creatures.

You find a recording in the Infirmary in the labs talking about how he consumed a ton of structural gel before being brought to Delta (he was unable to move and was dragged down). He began to rapidly mutate and became a monster. So yeah, he's probably the big thing chasing you through the Labs.

If thats the case, what happened to the other proxies? The only other one was the armless one in the server room.

There's also a few of them down in the Maintenance area.

I call those particular ones The Turdmen. Then there is Lamphead, The Witch, The Sea Food Band. Didn't name the first robot or the guy in the suit.

Have you beat the game? If not, do you still wanna know what happens to him?

Are there actually multiple? I thought all the wheezing people are the proxies, alerting akers to your location.

Yeah the proxies are Akers minions. Akers is the only proxy with peach coloured skin and is a lot more driven to find you then his minions. He'll constantly pace around John's security room in search of you.

I actually had a harder time with this proxy in particular than even the last monster. Though I think the scariest part of the game (for me anyway) was traveling through the dark abyss between the stations with those creepy fish and the Angler fish. I got a fear of deep water, not for drowning, but because we dont know wth is beneath us. We know more about light years away in space than we do our own oceans.

I beleive there are four Proxies at Theta, going by the information we get.

There was the one in the server room, Catherine finds a log mentioning it and "two more by the Infirmiry". We meet the first, and seem to leave him stuck down there via the collapsed staircase.

Then we find out that Akers himself mutated into one of the Proxies. One could argue he is the one we encounter upstairs, since that one in particular seems more intelligent. (It quickly figures out you took the elevator down and manages to get through the door and down the stairs)

Then there are two more who followed the survivors down into the transit station and maintenance tunnels through one means or another. We see them a lot during the final stretch of Theta where you're trying to find the generator.

Granted, I'm not back to Theta yet for my second playthrough. When I get there, I might take the time to actually pay attention to room layout, and try to figure out how many enemies the game actually spawns. It FELT like there were hundreds of them as I frantically raced through the rooms.

[DoremianCleff]

That is an Akers. One you find on an elevator floor. Not only it's still on a same floor where you can confirm his last presense, he is also only proxy that have no eyes. It was designed to show it's Akers.

[Lazychocobo]

I also learned that Akers can open doors >.< But! He can not get me if I'm on a table lol^
