In Response To: Sources of terminal text in Infinity (BriM)

: I've played through Infinity at least 5-6 times since the '90s and I think I
: understand the timeline shifting well enough, but I've always wondered
: about the in-game authors of text in some of the terminals. Specifically,
: terminals with green text which start/end with the 45degree tilted
: infinity symbol and terminals with white text. Is there consensus in the
: community about who or what is relating these messages to the player? I
: tried to do a search of the site and forum, so I apologize if its been
: discussed, but I couldn't find it.

: I'm guessing the white text is either Thoth or the player's own subconscious,
: depending on whether or not it occurs in a dream-like level, no? But what
: about the green text terminals?

There is no section on the Story page specifically about this. You might find some discussion about the source of the terminals in the Volunteers section.

Others may have there own opinions.
