Wanna hear a bad theory that is definitely not the truth and undermines everything but it still pretty fun?
Dark and Wilford created WKM together, like Wilford made Markiplier TV.
Evidence, that is grasping and fake:
Both Dark and Wilford have independently, in lore-verse, posted on Mark’s channel before.
Wilford is apt at creating and editing content, as evidenced by Markiplier TV, and able to use Mark’s friends in what he creates.
Wilford refers to Mark almost consistently as Markiplier, which would explain why it’s treated like Mark’s name in the series.
Dark would’ve been the one to think of this idea, as a social manipulator.
The whole point of Markiplier TV was apparently originally to gain back control for the egos, but it didn’t work.
Who Killed Markiplier, though, did. Everyone is now so invested in Dark and Wilford more so than ever, everyone wants more content from them. They are in control, because we care so much now.
If they were both heads of the table, they share some control, Wilford was standing, but perhaps now it was Dark’s turn to try.
Additionally, Dark states he’s tired of giving people choices. While in a similar first person format as A Date with Markiplier, it isn’t off-branching. We’re there, but all the decisions have been made for us. When we chose to let Dark in, WE don’t, we have to because the story says we do. But, by then, we care so much about Damien and Celine, as well as hate Mark, that we’re almost all willing anyway.
ALSO Isn’t it a fun coincidence that the “Don’t Remember” video is …Darkiplier TV
