* FridgeBrilliance: Being a mod for the first ''VideoGame/{{Doom}}'', the BagOfSpilling primarily comes from the episodic nature of the plot. Yet, it actually makes sense in light of how the post-boss narration describes what happens during the transition:
** You don't carry much at the start of "The Shattered City" because you just started your dream journey.
** Before starting "The Stagnant Fortress", the Traveler takes a ship to reach the next place of his journey. He probably wasn't allowed to carry all his stuff onboard.
** [[spoiler:After vanquishing "The Stagnant Fortress"'s boss, the Traveler has a hallucinatory episode which leaves him delirious for week. He resumes his journey after being nursed by friendly ghouls; they brought him back to their place but obviously left his arsenal at the place he fainted. That's why you reach "The Land That Time Forgot" unarmed, again.]]
** [[spoiler:After beating "The Land That Time Forgot", you're brought to "The Plateau of Leng" by Nyarlathotep's teleportation. Since he's a malicious being, he obviously made sure you'd lose your arsenal on the way.]]
** And last, you start "Out of the Aeons" without your previous gear, ''again'', because it's another dream journey which starts several years after the Traveler eventually managed to leave the Dreamlands.

** Nick is this as well. His parents are suddenly taken away from him in a car crash, stuck in the hospital. The his friend has him start a vlog and pretty much makes him reveal his issues to the world. Lord knows what else was going on in his mind, as we saw in "Addendum".

They also can resurrect ''each others'', forcing you to carefully plan the fight in order to be able to kill both in a row.]]

*JerkassWoobie: Arron may have had the best of intentions when uploading his videos of Nick to the channel, but maybe he should have gotten consent from Nick before ''showing his most private and vulnerable moments to the world''.
**And it's unlikely that a psychologist would use the videos anyway if Nick were to seek help. If Arron couldn't see the clips where Slendy appears, how would the psychologist know if the videos were edited or not?
*Narm: Nick's... deep thought in "Compilation".
--> '''Nick''': Well, there are some people who don't like to enjoy things.
*ParanoiaFuel: As we saw in "seeing me again", the guy in the jumpsuit was [[spoiler:watching the whole time as Nick and Arron filmed their first vlog.]]
*TheWoobie: Arron is this in spades. He takes in his friend, only for him to become distant and hostile. Then he tries to get him to seek help, so he runs away. And THEN there are videos posted to his account showing that whatever was watching Nick has affected at least one more person. [[spoiler:He hasn't heard from Nick in a month.]]
