i’ve been told that i,,, should post my c!quackity analysis 👉👈
first of all okay so, he shows a clear sign of interest in kinoko kingdom. you know who’s part of kinoko kingdom? sapnap and karl. you know who he was planning to build up las nevadas with in the beginning? sapnap and karl
so las nevadas, of course, i think is a result of quackity trying to prove himself as a strong individual, as independent, he himself says to foolish (and he hints multiple times during foolish’s streams about his interest in kinoko kingdom and the topic of marriage).
for some time now, we’ve seen quackity take the lead in situations where he isn’t the inherent of official leader. what he’s doing now, he’s been doing for a few months, but only now is he taking further measures to push his agenda, like manipulation, griefing, etc.
example: the butcher army and tubbo leading lmanberg. when tubbo became president, quackity took a significant role in being his advisor, almost, trying to steer tubbo’s decisions during the exile conflict. he was very set on punishing tommy, and very likely contributed to tubbo’s decision in exiling him. he also “carried the torch” for the butcher gang operation, despite tubbo, as the president, being in lead
these are both examples of quackity trying to come into power (+ yk, torturing dream to prove he’s stronger but that’s obvious). and you know what else he did? it was a forgotten sideplot, but at some point quackity was going to revive schlatt and make him his puppet. this was forgotten, however, because it was wayyy back after schlatt died. this however supports his character’s motivations, as someone who does not like to be pushed around.
but my main point is: quackity joined the server same as anyone else, here to have fun. then he was put to the side as a character who wasn’t very important, irrelevant even. and now quackity is not just here to gain power, but to gain respect. and that's what las nevadas is for: it's to become his empire, but at the very start of las nevadas, he wanted to do all of that with sapnap and karl. so imagine the hurt when the two go off to make their own country, and he thinks they purposefully left him out of it. multiple times has quackity felt betrayed/hurt by someone (jschlatt, as he was in a toxic relationship with him), so his response isn't too much of a surprise
when george breaks the news to him, he responds at first with just shock, sadness. not really anger or anything, and he still doesn't seem to be responding with anger.
but he's retaliating in ambition. he's been left behind, "forgotten" by his fiances, and we see him project this onto the people he manipulates. he makes it a point that they will be forgotten, that all they have will turn to nothing unless they join him. it isn't explicitly said, but his point is that they will be forgotten if they don't bring themselves to power (along with him). and yk what? multiple times quackity has been seen as irrelevant, or a side character, despite being involved in multiple large plots
this is his rise to respect, to power, because he doesn't believe people take him seriously. so now he's creating las nevadas to prove that, and make sure he isn't forgotten. not by sapnap, not by karl, not by anyone. las nevadas isn't just a gambling empire, he wants it to be his masterpiece. and at this point, with all the wars he's been involved in, with all the conflicts, he’s aware that you can't just convince people with mere words these days yk? like he said, he says wilbur is right. power is not won through words, it's won through blades. quackity couldn't defeat a technoblade clad in iron armor when he had fully enchanted netherite, so he has to take a different approach than pvp
but, he can still force his way into power. the blade just doesn't need to be physical. i'm sure quackity didn't go after the egg JUST because he hates it, JUST because he could let foolish die there (because how would he have known that foolish would be executed first?) he went after the egg so people could know him as the first person who actually did something to defy the egg. sure pro-omelette exists, but they didn't do anything to fight against the egg. maybe they cleared up some vines, but that was it.
what did quackity do? he drove the eggpire into hiding, and that was his rise to show just how powerful he can be, even without the server's best pvp skills or op netherite armor. that was a part of quackity’s rising.
so, in conclusion, quackity wants to prove his power, because he doesn't think anyone around him believes he has any
