I think Chismest is my favorite town. Everyone had their own agenda. No one stood around waiting for you talk to them. It had a bit of that bustling city personality. Yea everyone was miserable but they didn't want to be. And helping them made me feel happy too. It also makes me wonder how such a happy bard grew up in such a gloomy place. Maybe happy kid was based on him considering that the baron is his dad.
I imagine the moved to Langtree just to get away from everything Chismest is. See the sun, breathe clean air, have peace and quiet and nature.
@@sagesaria or maybe chismest wasnt always such a sad place
maybe the factory only came to be after the bard left
This... THIS ACT was what made Wandersong hit so hard for me. So I was playing this game for the first time around X-mas this year. I work night shifts, so I'm regularly awake at night and sleep during the day, even on X-mas. As such, I opted for a hotel room so that I didn't have to try to sleep through children being children. Now, as a side bit of important context to this story, my brother has molested me and all of my family knew. So before I showed up, I asked my aunt (who was hosting the event) if he would be there. She said no, so I showed up on X-mas eve. Then, when I was there, she said that he would be coming over for X-mas dinner. I started panicking, telling her that I would leave if he showed up. She brushed it off, not taking me seriously and telling me "I told him to be nice, so it's fine." That's... Not how that works...
When I went back to my hotel room and slept the rest of X-mas eve day off, I was so nervous. Then, throughout the night, I played Wandersong starting from this act! The almost (if not) depressing tone of this act combined with my situation really helped to simultaneously distract me and comfort me by reminding me that the negative emotions are okay. I almost cried at how this act seemed to understand and even help. I spent most of the time just walking around the town, taking in the atmosphere. Before I knew it, it was time to go back to my aunt's place to open presents with the kids on X-mas morning.
Thankfully, my brother wasn't there for that, but I was eventually told that when he came, he would be sent down to eat in the basement. I made a trip back to the hotel room to take a power nap and I had a mental breakdown just THINKING about having to be in the same room as him. (I hadn't seen him in over 2 years) So I booted up Wandersong to help me calm down. When I was calm, I tried to go back to sleep... But then it happened a second time! I just couldn't do it! This game was literally the ONLY thing keeping me at least somewhat stable!
X-mas dinner came and after he got his plate, he sat down at the main table right across from me!... And wasn't sent away... So I left and went down to the basement. I ate X-mas dinner while sitting on the floor in complete solitude while listening to my family laughing and joking alongside my molester like nothing was wrong! I'd never felt so unwanted, unloved, uncared for, betrayed, and abandoned! I had the biggest, loudest, and ugliest mental breakdown I'd had in YEARS!! My mother finally noticed and after trying to calm me down a bit, she sent him away. Once he was gone, I went back upstairs and absolutely LOST IT on my family!
After I screamed at them for over an hour, continuing to break down and listening to their empty excuses and apologies, I went back to my hotel room and crashed! I woke up a little after midnight and just played Wandersong until morning. It was during that play session that I got to the Baron of the Happy Factory and realized... With all of the X-mas esque lights and his figure... He was definitely supposed to be a reference to Santa Claus. Confronting what was basically Santa at the end of this chapter really felt cathartic to me after the horrid X-mas I had just had!
Ending this act helped me to put and emotional block up so that I could see that X-mas was over with. Before anyone got up on boxing day, my mother and I raided the kitchen for the pies, cookies, and other goodies that I had brought to share because she agreed that I had the right to take that stuff back after the way they treated me. My mother is helping me get through this, even if she wants me to forgive. I won't forgive, but at least this game, Wandersong, helped me through 2-3 of my worst days in the last decade!
I love this game so much and it's this act that did the most for me on a personal level!
I'm sorry to hear that, I'm glad at least someone cared about what happened and that this game helped you through this time in your life
Oh my gosh. Im so sorry to hear what happened, but im so glad this game helped you.
This deserves To be on reddit, not RUclips comments
Your family sucks ASS. You deserve way better! I don't know if it's possible to truly connect to people over the interwebs, but you're not alone! I hope the game proved that! Talk to me any time. Many people experience trauma, but that worst part is how it isolates us from others who simply don't get it.
Your family sucks ASS! You deserve way better, and I hope you know it. Also, you are NOT alone, and I hope the game proved that. :) I don't know how possible it is to really connect with people over the intarwebs, but I have PTSD and work with others who do and am happy to talk about shit!
i can't blame the bard for wanting to move to langtree to get away from that place one bit
Me neither haha
I love how it's next to never explicitly stated that the Bard moved away, everything is in the subtle hints and brief dialogue. You can slowly gather why the Bard would want to move without any one person in game stating why they did.
You know, there's a character that says that the baron of the factory hasn't been seen in YEARS! And if you watch the segment in the Wandersong scene that shows his mom, you'll notice that he's over at her place. After, while the credits are rolling and you're visiting people, you can talk to Kiwi's (that's the bard's canon name) mom and she says that his father is "finally back" and that "he settled in right away and now [she] can't get him to leave."... Kiwi doesn't know what his father looks like... Could it be possible that the baron of the factory is actually Kiwi's father?!
@@LadybugsOpin Ok yeah anyone with the attention span of at least a gold fish could figure that out, what I'm talking about is HIS NAME IS KIWI THAT'S THE CUTEST FUCKING THING EVER, OH MY GOD
The deeper into the game you get the more his need to be positive all the time makes sense, seeing where he grew up
man when i played through that chapter i almost got depressed
it was like i was the bard
game suddenly wasnt happy and neither was i
thats what i call a good chapter when it makes you feel shit
I thought the game was gonna be cutesy all the way through, then this chapter started, and I was like "Yes! Thank You!".
Favorite Track in the game.
You know this is a really good game when you start getting feelings from it
Chismest had no idea of the end. It was only a clock, destined to tick the time away until it breaks. The astronomer was uninformed. The people were focused in their own schedule. The sky was too covered in smog to see. Chismest would have churned away time until the end, no second thought, just like a clock. Thank Eya the bard showed up.
I'm honestly super happy the devs didn't make Kiwi feel better via "hOlIdAy SpIrIt". I mean, that would just make this act WAY less serious than it's supposed to feel.
This is the one song that gets stuck in my head way too often.
Agreed!!!
According to the dev notes that you can unlock in-game, that was actually the original plan, but they kinda decided against it at the last minute, which is why there are still so many holiday references, like those lights you see on the way to the baron and the fact that the baron himself is an obvious reference to Santa.
@@LadybugsOpin yes! i realize that. that is, in fact, why i commented what i did.
I also like that they didnt make the baron evil he actually just didnt realize how miserable everyone was because of the factory and happy kid
I love how the factory in the in the background is keeping time as well as participating in the melody
Fun fact: The instrument at 1:03 isn't a synth but actually a bass clarinet.
Huh, how'd they achieve the like, sand in a box static-y quality of the sound?
@@troutsashimi probably a filter
You're a bass clarinet
Incorrect. It's a deep down rooter tooter!
And it goes hard
The first time I played this part, I thought either I had my own agenda that I didn't know about, or I was on a time limit.
I'm so fucking glad this city was made the way it was. This game would have hit a lot different if this was just a big holiday themed town.
I just adore the ticking
The song really FEELS like a depressed town. This song is amazing for the mood.
When I got to this chapter, the coldest part of winter had started, and the whole feel of this level, the environment, the music, it all fit like gears in a clock.
Sure I had a fire going, but that hardly helped, if at all.
It was like sitting in a meat locker.
Seeing how the Baron looks like Santa Claus really made me laugh.
I think I might play this game again now that I've discovered THC.
The music alone is enough to get your soul buzzing.
The bass clarinet rightfully gets a lot of praise, but I'd like to take a minute to appreciate the balalaika. I'd sit right by roof guy just to hear him play lmao
Chismest is symbolic of one's mental health during a rough job such as a factory one. All ye feel is gloomy and imprisoned depending on location. Well that's what the town and music say to me at least
this chapter hit me so hard...there have been two times in my life where i was dealing with too much loss/depression to put any heart into making music even though i had to and Kiwi’s singing voice combined with that expression in the earliest parts was exactly what I sounded like and felt like...the industrial, empty music for this town embodies existing with depression or burnout by just running through the motions with no heart so well
I really love the factory/clockwork esthetic in music. This song uses the factory theme and does an awesome job with it
He was down!
I suddenly knew why the bard always tried his best to be happy and cheerful; as the opposite of this gloomy town he once called home.
He couldn't quite even bring himself to sing.
So I made sure to keep high spirits for him,
Until he could lift everyone else's spirits along with his
My personal favorite. It contrasts, but it fits! It's a miracle, honestly; a masterpiece of game design.
Idk remember how miriam complained that kiwi never showed his sad side and he justified it with being sad around people is bad? That is actually very toxic to think that showing one‘s sad side is bad for others bc that way maybe two people can find a solution or atleast relate to each other. Anyways what I wanted to say is I bet you all noticed that the baron was at kiwi‘s mom‘s house and the baron just sat there and at the end kiwi‘s mom says that his dad came home? It all makes sense now. When Kiwi was little his dad(the baron) taught kiwi to never be sad or to never show it to sb or to always be happy bc according to the baron that is how u can become truly happy. And kiwi adapted that philosophy and he is now living with it. Maybe that is why he is always wearing that mask? Why does nobody question why he is wearing that mask? Maybe to hide his real expressions? (or maybe he is the main character in the story and should not look like any specific person so that the player can imagine herself/himself being him while playing?) those Happy Kid toys also look like him. And why does his mom say that he(kiwi) is strange? Anyways kiwi must have found out that the city he grew up in was kinda damaging his mental health and moved out. I jus wanted to share my thoughts and ideas and sorry for my bad english I wish i could express myself better
His mom definitely played a role in fostering his toxic positivity. I specifically remember her telling him to "smile, dear" or something along the lines of that at the start of the act. She meant well obviously just like the Bard's father, but the fake smile he put on stuck with my memory of this act.
Also your English is above-average, don't feel bad. 😊
@@ericonion3561 Also, she said that the Bard grew up "weird" because apparently he lacked "father's love". While his dad was most likely not producing the Happy Kid toys at that time yet, he definitely neglected his son; I mean, they don't even recognize each other!
@@_red_crewmate His dad is odd because it looked like he genuinely meant no harm at the end of the act. It's almost like he was written with another purpose in mind as an antagonist, or maybe to embody that quote about good intentions. If he really is just ignorant I could see why he and the Bard's mom split up, but there's no way he didn't know he had a kid right?
Love that factory sound
The mechanical-like noises and the depressed attitude of the entire town sells the mood. You're down, everybody is down...what is to be done? Stop the factory, and hope that maybe you'll find something to re-ignite you again
this act was my favorite, also chismest kinda reminded me of little inferno
World of goo was my favorite game as a kid so I adored the aesthetic of this part of the game
the balalaika is great in this
Low key got super sad when I played this part of the game
I get that the entire town is a critique of corporate holiday cheer and how much it hurts to pretend to be happy because of societal expectations and all, but literally naming it a corruption of "Christmas" struck me as a *little* on-the-nose.
This song is one of the ones I remember most in the whole game down the line. It's that endless. Daily. Grind. The city will not wait for you, as you run around, trying to remember everyone's timetables, trying to catch up to a world moving on, moving ever closer to its end.
It has so much going on, it's impossible to forget.
Okay but that bass clarinet is fire
my favorite chapter
and suddenly, its majoras mask
Expect the world doesn't end every hour.
just popping in to say shoutout to the heartbeat in the very background around 2:20 ! I feel like I could probably overanalyze a story reason why it's there given time, but for now it's just a cool addition :0
"I play for a city, its heart replaced with machinery... Cold as the snow that falls upon it...". Sorry, I know the comment is old, but I coudn't help but leave this quote
There is no panic. There is no fear. The end is only a concept, not a truth.
Even the end would be a spark of hope in such a monotonous life.
But there's no way such an easy, safe out would exist.
There is only the steady beat of the every day.
Only the overcast skies of smog and the false, produced joy.
The end would be scary,
But it'd be something. It'd be different.
If only there was.
Years later and I still love this game with all my heart.
Definitely one of my favorite acts in the game. Alongside act 2 as well for sure! But, they’re all amazing.
0:46 i hear the elsen gasp from OFF or something that sounds incredibly similar
Amazing song for an amazing chapter. ...still no idea how to pronounce the name of this city though!
I say chiz mest lmao
Love this song
Each act of the story gave me a type of vibe the chimist gave me a dystopian cold depressing vibe like when it’s snowing outside and you’re sitting on the windowsill I really like it
You did good
Oh GOODY!
Okay, the theme sounds good but... I hated this song when I was playing because the Bard was so depressed
Alternate Universe Comment:
This is where the Bard spends his two-dungeon hiatus after you meet them for the first time. I'm pretty sure they did it because he has a 2-Overseer head start, but it's a pretty gut-punching reaction, considering most of that time is revealed to be sulking by his mom.
Audrey don't care much though.

This was a pretty different chapter, lots of communism allegories.
