Ok, so, I'm currently retelling the entire IRIS lore to a bunch of server buddies and.... look, normally I don't make fun of someone else's worldbuilding, but jesus christ the lore is a ten car pile-up. And boy howdy there was some really good riffing material in there.

Luckily, I have the pleasure of being an ex-fan of DAGames, so I have knowledge of things that happened as well as finally having the freedom and courage to criticize his work.

Here's the highlights and the observations I made:

The three deities are Hithistrus, Yondathaticus, and Wondramite. I couldn't stop laughing at the name "Wondramite." To the people that never experienced the lore like I did, get used to the names. We got an ass ton of stupid names to go through.

When I was talking about the whole overseer system, one person pointed out that its basically mormonism. Here's the quote that they provided for reference, as well as the wiki page for comparison: 'In Mormonism, the concept of divinity centers around an idea of "exaltation" and "eternal progression": mortals themselves may become gods and goddesses in the afterlife, be rulers of their own heavenly kingdoms, have spirit children, and increase in power and glory forever. Mormons understand that there is a Heavenly Mother. However, the three persons of Godhead (God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost) are to be the only objects of worship.'

Sooo yeah. Congrats, Will! You invented space mormonism.

Nothing wrong with that. I just thought it was kinda interesting.

The species from the colony called the "Crimson Tartarus" sound pretty cool. They seem to be like gargoyle orc versions of Heatblast... which makes my ire for the design of Father Tyrant even stronger. Like, why is he a frickin' human being?! And don't say "well it's because of the death and rebirth system" BITCH, HUMANS ARE IN VEGALA 0/VINTRACEED, NOT VEGALA 2/XYNE, WHERE THE CRIMSON TARTARUS LIVE. DON'T GIVE ME THAT BULLSHIT.

The Bozchlyth Gnialare are literally the Tyranids from Warhammer 40k. In fact, I described the IRIS lore as "Warhammer 40k fanfiction with the numbers filed off"

"If memory serves well, we serve the memory…." Why yes. If something is happening, then its happening.

Lady Fate is a space elf. And no, I couldn't find a design for her on the wiki. I mean, she's a pivotal character in the story. Why doesn't she get an image?

So... why did the Deities blow up their castle? I mean, the crypt below it contained the IRIS and the bible. No, not even the wiki could give me a clear answer as to what the castle even is, nor who made it their home.

I summarized the whole "Castle That Never Dies" speech that Father Tyrant did as "Maybe the castle is the friends we made along the way".

Actually the whole Vegalian revolt part of the story was pretty badly written. Tyrant is kinda dumb tbh. I mean, he's smart enough to make an invisibility potion but not smart enough to know that the nectar from the Bryntulia bushes, which... ok I get it they have healing properties and shit but they also make you super drunk and pass the f--k out?

I summarized Father Tyrant and Lady Fate as Reapertale Sans and Toriel.

When I learned that "Yonder" means "There" and "Hither" means "Here", I unintentionally got "Hip to be Square" by Huey Lewis and the News stuck in my head.

I had such a hard time with remembering Vyson Pavavorey's name that I had to call him Viceroy for simplicity's sake. Another person called him "Vice City". Other names that I called him include: - Viceroy McStupidname - Viceroy Pavlovdogface - Viceroy McAssholeface - Vice City Pavlov Response

I also couldn't find a design for Viceroy, save for his gauntlet. Like... come on, man.

One person called the Vegalians "Vegetable People" or "Vegans"

I made an observation that the Dark Matter creatures are most likely personifications of Will's mental state based on my analysis of the creatures' descriptions.

Someone derailed the conversation with a fact about maternity fatalities

How I described how Goliath came to be: "TL;DR, when a man and a woman love each other very much, they protect their kingdom from a swarm of shadow creatures, revive their dead army, rush over to a fusion of all those monsters combined and beat it up, get their blood on it, and let that monster give birth to an egg. That's how goliath was formed"

Reading the IRIS lore from the wiki made me feel like my brain was oozing out of my ears. I described it as "like reading a Warhammer 40k lore guide or a DnD lore guide".

I stopped at the part where Goliath was now guarding the Encrypt. Once I have enough energy, I'll be able to tell Abrham's part of the story.

Someone described Abrham Valentin as "Harley Quinn as an edgy cyber goth guy"

...in conclusion, I think I found the sci-fi dark fantasy equivalent to Riverdale.... minus all the ships and pairings.

Stay tuned for part 2. I have a feeling that its gonna get stupider from here.

And if you want to experience the shit I had to trek through, feel free to peruse the wiki and take a plunge.
