(no spoilers in the video besides the combat music used in the darkest dungeon, but do be aware the reccomended videos almost certainly do have some, so be careful scrollin down/lookin at the reccomendations at the end)

S’pretty heavy stuff.

Also, real talk, I do love how hammy and straight the narration is played in this game. If it took itself less seriously it wouldn’t work, but it’s delivered perfectly.

“The maniaical cultists are quelled, for a time, but there can be no celebration. Your progress is measured only in progressive realisation, and dawning horror. You are in the shadow of the end.”

“In all my terrible researches, what I sought was a glimpse behind the veil, a crumb of cosmic truth… I found it here, and in that moment of brain-blasting realization I ceased to be a man and became a herald… An avatar of the Crawling Chaos.

Life feeds on life. In your petty pursuit of family redemption you consumed those who rallied to your cause and in so doing you strengthened the Thing, accelerating the end. This is as it should be. It is why you are here.

We are chained here forever, you and I, at the end of the world. Free yourself, rouse the thing and embrace the ineffable cosmic hideousness that lives within us all.

…

You still foolishly consider yourself an entity separate from the whole, but I know better.

  And I.  Will.  Show you. “
