OM! Nightbringer: Trailer Breakdown

[usual disclaimers: this is just my opinion, criticism isn't "negativity", all interpretations are valid!]

Do we know much about the game other than it being a prequel? No!

Do I think this is probably what the "Ruri-chan" game beta test was actually for? Yes!

Will this game have lore that contradicts the original game? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Can we ignore it if we want to? Yes!

Am I going to play it? Duh xD

~

Skipping forward slightly to cover the above gif - this transition scene is played twice in the trailer which not only emphasises that this transition between angel and demon is an important focus of Nightbringer but also that they thought it was a banger, which it is!

The brothers stand as angels in the Celestial Realm, the building as yet untouched by war, before flashing forward - violently - to a ruined building drenched in blood red, crumbling to pieces as they stand there.

A gap as angels is filled by Satan. Lucifer loses his wings. Halos are discarded.

But still together they stand, behind their leader, no matter where he may take them...

Starting at the beginning then, we tip into this world much like Alice and the rabbit hole, tumbling down an endless spiral.

This spiral however is one of glowing windows - or is that doors? - a transitional image of time and/or space, which is of course highly relevant when you happen to have a time travelling butler nearby 👀

As Barbatos reveals in Lesson 15:

"I have the ability to see into both the past and the future…

"…and I can send people to either one by using one of the countless doors in my room."

A prequel seen via time travel? Or simply a connection to the original game? Time will tell...

(I almost thought he said the return door would be glowing but turns out that's my own fic, oop!)

The previous and current side characters are all present and correct, from Thirteen crammed onto the balcony, Mephistopheles on the stairs, Luke clutching Simeon's arm, and Raphael faceplanting into the camera.

The angels stand in the dark, signifying perhaps the current day Devildom... or the war torn Celestial Realm.

The presence of Thirteen suggests a modern day beginning point... or that she has been to the Devildom once before.

Diavolo and Barbatos are the only characters seen in their RAD uniforms - an institution that was already in place before the fallen angels first arrived.

Unlike everyone else, Solomon is shown alone, in circumstances similar to his UR+ card Make Solomon Cry. The golden light of the card is missing, instead the sky is grey and cries with him.

But he, like a solemn Lucifer, both reveal a small smile as they look up, towards something, or someone, that gives them hope.

Solomon's mortality is something the game hasn't touched on much, nor the origins of his pacts or his/Michael's ring... A trip to the past could reveal far more than just angel history.

Lucifer is shown throughout the trailer as brooding, grief-torn, stricken, but these tiny moments reveal his underlying nature, one buried by war and loss.

He is Rebellion. And his capacity for love remains immense.

The white bird of the title logo is the negative to the black bird of the original game logo - and while the black bird in the original game title animation flies across the screen, enveloping the viewer in the world of the Devildom, here a white bird steps free of its cage and flies to freedom.

Freedom from the Celestial Realm, but the cage door was never truly shut... unlike the caged bird of Season 1 (see Belphegor's Bird Cage background).

The black bird (crow) represents the Devildom, and the white bird (dove) the Celestial Realm. Associations as old as time, but a reminder of where the focus of this game lies - the nature of the Fall 👀

This change is also seen in the different feathers between the old game introduction and the new:

In the beginning, a demonic Lucifer raises his hand as a white feather we see from above lands upon his palm, where he crushes it fiercely, as if disgusted, reducing it to dust.

In Nightbringer, an angelic Lucifer reaches out to cradle a falling white feather we see from below, as if it is precious to him. (As if it is Lilith's...)

In the og game, Lucifer the demon casts aside the last remnants of his angelic origins, a feather from the wings he had already ripped out of himself.

But here, earlier, Lucifer the Archangel is at war, and the fallen are his allies, his friends, his family. He cradles that which will soon be gone, that which he will soon think himself unfit to touch...

A mirror image - that is what Satan has always feared himself to be, a part of Lucifer, an inescapable fragment of a singular soul.

Satan as a newly created being is so very much a part of Lucifer that the sight of the elder demon is an affront to his nature, an unrelenting reminder of who - of what he is.

In the original game, Satan has begun to learn who he truly is as his own unique being. Someone who values understanding, who makes friends with ease, who indulges his hobbies, who has his own unique bonds with his chosen family.

But Satan in the beginning, that was a very different being, and one who only had muddled memories and vague guesses as to who the fuck anyone around him is, and where the hell he happened to be 👀

A mirror image - that is what this trailer shows, Lucifer's blue turned to red to oppose Satan's green, opposite hands clutching their faces, equal shapes in the background unlike any other pair (even the twins!), and dual faces of agony.

Satan's "birth" is painful for them both, a trauma never healed. Perhaps finally the viewer will be given a greater understanding of both, and if the viewer is who I suspect it might be, that could be very interesting indeed...

I can't ignore the others, as although this is very much the Lucifer and Satan show, getting to see any of the brothers' early demon days would be quite the treat!

There are similarities here to their original intro animation, that somewhat shows a facet of each personality - the distance Levi projects between himself and others for his own (or others) safety; the fun loving Asmo who could be so easily tipped into scary aggressor; the sunshine filled Mammon whose sin colour is not present in his surroundings but instead a blinding angelic white tinged with the Celestial blue of his own eyes; the protective bodyguard of the family Beel, ready to fight once more; and the (faux) innocence of Belphie who later hid his hatred to trick a human to their death.

There are many comparisons to be made with the original introduction, and some are certainly deliberate, from the near exact positioning matching the thrones, to the brothers standing facing a new dawn versus now, in the prequel, standing on a battlefield facing Diavolo.

The original tone was playful, with little revealed about the world the characters inhabited, whereas here we have a more sombre mood, hinting at the things we know come to pass.

The brothers are seen each in turn - determined, grim faced, ready for whatever this new hell will throw at them but touched, crushed, by the grief upon them all.

And then to Lucifer at last, who raises his head in defiance once again.

For he is Rebellion.

I could write much more but I'll spare y'all xD

However if you read this far and are still wondering who I think/hope the viewpoint character of Nightbringer will be...

Satan.

One angry, confused, and clueless demon who wants some damn answers ( ಠ▿▿ಠ)و ̑̑

Mammon Hates Goodbyes

Inspired by this twitter post: basically about Mammon knowing his relationship with you will come to an end. Through choice, through death, everything comes to an end. Yes, it’s angst/bittersweet.

Mammon hates goodbyes. He knew that there would be a goodbye. There's always a goodbye, whether he wanted it or not. And truthfully, even with people at their worst towards him, he never wanted that final goodbye.

His finger grazed the petal, careful not to touch too much of the delicate skin but wanting to feel it. Feel it was real and really there with him. He let it drop to the ground where others gathered; some more alive than dead. The fate would still be the same.

The others lamented your impending death, and he did too. Each of them giving away their own seemingly eternity wax to your short burning, bright candle that would be out so quick. They could do nothing to your soul to keep you either, a silent but known rule regarding the afterlife judgement.

It was so final and one he recognized. It wasn't the only goodbye to him however, knowing that the truly painful one was not whether you'd be together again in the after life.

"Mammoooon! Come on, we want to go to the gift shop!"

Mammon blinked, out of it while he was staring at the petals on the ground. Asmo was calling for him, the others next to him and of course, you. You gave him a wave before motioning over to the gift shop, excited to go.

He smiles at you, but it doesn't reach his eyes. It is sincere but something fallen along with the petals behind him.

No, the most painful goodbye will always be when you choose to go. Asmo giggles as he takes you by your arm and rushes you to the shop with the others, Mammon taking his time walking behind to join up.

When you choose to leave their world, that will be the goodbye that hurts him. When you say this has been fun and give him one last kiss goodbye, this is the one that will ache for a millennia after you're gone. Humans are free spirited and don't do well locked behind choices, stagnant for years. One day, this will not be enough for you.

Mammon smiles at a silly key chain you show him and says he'll steal it, just like he stole your heart.

One day, he will not be enough for you. And that's okay. The real smile is the less showy one that grows when he sees you enjoy life, laughing with him and doing what makes you happy. It will hurt and he won't be able to forget that pain; but your happiness dulls that ache. Just enough to stand it.

Mammon hates goodbyes.

@arottenwar Lemme use his OC after we talked about events that happen with Belphie in season one of Obey Me lol. His OC is a bit of a biter. And won’t go down without a fight. Which surprises Belphie lol.

But he still strangles the human. XD

[thegreatmammon]

one day

Mammon: ya know, one day it's gonna happen. i'mma strike it big.

Asmodeus: Oh, you're going to make millions? :3

Mammon: even better! Lucifer will finally hug me again, like when were kids.

Asmodeus: ...

Asmodeus: Oh my Diavolo, that's sad.

How he fights HC

I imagine Mammon is a close to mid range combat fighter. He uses short swords that can connect and daggers. He can use his wings and agility to be a good aerial combat fighter. He fights pretty much like Zidane Tribal from Final Fantasy 9/Dissidia. He has a fast speed, reflexes and though his attacks may not deal huge hits, they stack up pretty quick. It’s not how hard you hit, it’s how efficient the hits are and weakening an opponent down. 

He isn’t as strong in magic like his brothers but can do enough for magic bursts to disorient an opponent.

^ This video has a compilation of combos that is a good example I think of how Mammon fights. Ya don’t gotta watch the whole thing, I think like a min shows a pretty good example.
