Ironically, if you finish Primal Rage using Chaos, it is revealed that he was a human geneticist (or witch doctor, depends on the version) who accidentally transformed himself into that thing, and defeating all the other monsters lets him become human again, which in turn, lets him lead the effort to reclaim the world for humanity. He actually becomes kind of handsome, in fact.
surprisingly poignant ending for a game about monsters ripping each other to shreds
@@mosiarmstrong Indeed.
So Chaos lore is basically the snotty boy glow up?
Huh, that's up there with finding out Vertigo is the only female fighter in Primal Rage.
I didn't know Chaos was kind of a 'hero'.
His fatalities (besides the golden shower one) are basically "hey, check out this gross stuff I can do. Definitely the most human out of all of em 🤣
The fact that you made it through this whole list without referencing Silent Hill is quite impressive. Gross out tentacley flesh monsters with cult worshippers are like, that series' whole jam.
Right? My first thought was SH3 when Claudia straight up SWOLLOWS the thrown up fetus god. And, of course, Walter thinking an apartment was his mother.
Eh technically all Silent Hills are guilt induced fever dreams/nightmares that are so powerful they can warp reality. So technically the cults both exist and don't exist
@@a_cynical_mad_man_vods schroedingers cult
Low hanging fruit and all
Yeah! My first thought was the original Silent Hill, which certainly left and lasting impression in my mind.
Mike's Jenova Witness joke was the best laugh I've had in a while.
That was a video or comic somewhere. Maybe VG Cats?
@@LegendStormcrow Yeah, VGCats did that joke in 2005. So... like 6 strips ago?
@@ombranox Eh, more like 30. I wanna say they stopped in 2012,.but by then it was like 1 strip every year. Around 2015 they started selling lewds because the fanbase liked them so much. They did have a great Pokemon apin-off, but they deleted it.
Old but Gold. I put up Jenova's Witness as my religion on Facebook years ago.
The catfish joke elicited a genuine belly laugh from me.
Jane absolutely annihilated that description of the greater will, hot damn. 24 seconds is a record.
VaatiVidya might go out of business
Came here to say this.
“Oh, I wish they wouldn’t.” 😆 I LOST it. You all have a genuine corner on gaming comedy. Brilliant.
@@bb-im6hf lets get a series on oxshorts for the final nail in the coffin. 😂
@@TheRPGInsomniac This might be the only time I’ve gotten a comment in ahead of time 😅
I'm impressed the thing could have appeared as literally anything, and it chose a hand without a middle finger.
Real deep, that one ^^
Seeing the two fingers as actual two giant fingers was all I needed to see to rebel against the greater will.
I went along with them until they were like "uhhh we don't have a plan for the door not opening let me talk to the greater will for a few millennia please hold." so I was like, "Ahh they are that kind of boss."
Rather burn the tree or marry the magic lady tbh
"wait this is why i'm doing all this screw this sh1t i'm k1ll1ng it"
Greater Won't
"Should've called them Jenova's Witnesses" (eyebrow wiggle) had me thoroughly choking on my own laughter 😂😂😭😂
I was so genuinely surprised that the 'two fingers' everyone kept mentioning in elden ring was literally two giant gross hairy fingers and not a shadowy organisation or something. I want to know who to blame for this, GRRM or Miyazaki.
Right? The first time you meet the two fingers in roundtable hold was so grotesque. Fromsoft does horror atmosphere better than a lot of horror games.
Blame both
Wait til you see their rival faction, the three fingers. It’s ah… you know what, you get it.
@@tmmw1975 I don't know why, but I just put together than 3 + 2 fingers makes a whole hand lol.
@@NigelMelanisticSmith that's probably their origin story, for realz
It's strangely comforting that Jane has prepared for the future of the channel so well. Hopefully very, very, very far into the future.
The Children of Atom from the Fallout series. Worshippers of a wide variety of gross stuff, including an enormous crater full of radiation and Deathclaws. In a series that can be quite nuanced about its factions, these guys are completely crazy.
Not to mention in Fallout 1, the mutant being worshiped in the basement of their church...
Let's not forget about the Mother Punga in F3s Point Lookout DLC. No matter how much we'd prefer to forget it...
@@snorpenbass4196 That's the Unity, another cultist group who sees Super Mutants as the perfect beings, and that mutated blob is their leader and founder, the Master.
Where do they worship deathclaws?
Grey Hawk the thing is, that the Master woulda been justified if the muties could reproduce
i laughed way too hard at "Jenova's witnesses". GG
You ain't the only one 🤣
That can go on the top shelf with the "shitcoin" bit.
Spoilers!
Hah! I actually have a Jenova's Witness tee shirt! Got it from VG Cats. The church of the one winged angel of latter day summons!
“Genova’s Witnesses” are a group who support a “body builder” named Jason Genova
Greater Won't got me
C'Thulhu having a belly button or not is actually a question with more implication than a throw-away joke, as it for some reason immediately made me think about it. It would mean that C'Thulhu was conceived within his/it's mother. Not from an egg, or created from imagination or energy, but birthed from a womb with all that entales. I would think C'Thulhu doesn't have a belly button, since pretty much any birth except mammalian birth results in a lack of one.
Unfortunately, bird and reptile eggs also produce a 'belly button' that functions the same as the natural mammalian wither-and-break-away method of removing their connection to the already-broken placental sac. Eggs are simply armoured placenta with a nutrient sac, after all!
@@W34T13Y which is a... lovely mental image.
Well
Birds birth eggs
Dragons birth eggs
Octopuses birth eggs (I think)
The only non 3 things is the fact that he's humanoid
@@RandomPerson-hd6wr An octopus mother gives her life to her eggs.
Edit: I can't spell!
Cthulhu has a daughter named Cthylla. Should Cthulhu die, Cthylla will become pregnant and birth Cthulhu even stronger than he was before so he can destroy the world.
I'm not sure which was funnier, the believability of Jane as oxbox nightmother, or her inadvertent Whataburger employee cosplay😁
I'm not sure she knows abou that fast food company
Well, Jane will from now on be known as "Boxmother" either way...
I figure she'll be more like the god-emperor in WH40k. Neither dead nor alive but writhing with the power of the warp and humanity's ancient apex technology. For which she is the master of...the 'boxes offices. Maybe all of humanity eventually but she gotta shiv those mannequins first. And...uh...the rest of crew don't look much like Custodes or expert mannequin shiv-ers really.
The dark mother is definitely a good choice, but Hermaeous Mora is significantly more gross, and the only reason that they don't have a proper Cult like Boethia or Namira, is that most of the time, their worshippers choose to stay in Apocrypha and turn into lurkers
Perhaps also a healthy dose of the fact that, most who would even end up seeking his secrets, are highly intelligent mages. Usually not dumb enough to be tempted, unless they are arrogant enough to think their own willpower rivals that of a god.
@@insaincaldo They probably get a lifetime of reading, like that Futarama episode of "The Scary Door", but turn into the squids after losing their lives.
..probably by getting got by the other squids
Oh shit I completely forgot about the daedra, they def should’ve had at least one on this list
Or getting spear-tentacled because he found a new favorite
While that's true, tentacley lovecraftian abominations are kinda dime a dozen, with several on the list already. Worshiping a literal decaying corpse that still manages to speak, though, definitely has a certain _je ne sais quoi_ to it
About Primal Rage's Chaos: According to the game's Lore, Chaos was once a human whose profession was a scientist (known on the new Urth as a Witch Doctor) whose wished for world dominations. After the Cataclysm, he coveted Blizzard's power to take over the world and attempted to evolve himself with that power using Genetics, however, he was transformed into a disgusting beast covered in a pool of fecal matter. Chaos fights to brake the curse on him and returns to his human form, losing the whole flatulent bit, which if you beat the game with him, he succeeds. To be fair, according to extended Lore (though not seen in the games), Chaos' faction is, by far, the most technologically advanced of the factions. We are talking plasma rifles, power suits, computers, electricity, etc., while the rest of the factions are quite primitive thought some can utilize magic now.
Jane will forever lead outsidexbox, even in her grave. It’s in her will. All hail the glorious leader.
WE SHALL SACRIFICE ALL TO HER HAIL JANE HAIL D3@TH FOR THE INFERIOR!
This begs the question, if Jane is the Night Mother of Oxbox, who gets to be Sithis?
HAIL JANE! PARTON SAINT OF OX.
Not gonna lie, Sephiroth sword-sweeping those two cultists off the cliff was the most adorable murder I've seen since I discovered African Wild Cats.
Any Warhammer video game that includes Nurgle worshippers would count for this, given that Nurgle is the god of disease and pestilence. He even has his own illness named after him, "Nurgle's Rot"
You could probably include Slaanesh in there, too, though that's a somewhat different kind of disturbing.
so once Darktide is out, we're adding it to this Commentor's edition?
The emperor of mankind probably counts too at this point. The dark brotherhood aren't the only organisation in games worshipping a corpse
Chaosbane, the Grey Knights game got a lot of this, or the Eisenhorn one.
Nurgli worshippers are often those who are already inflicted with horrendous diseases and seek salvation from Papa Nurgle. This is why the Imperium stopped virus bombing planets.
This has bugged me since Castlevania. What happens if one or more of the humans used in your many human meatball are allergic to eggs, peanuts, shellfish, or have hayfever? It never comes up in these human-lego fusion situations. What if tossing a lobster at the mass of human could put an end to it in a matter of minutes. All I'm saying is there's no harm in trying.
Good lord I thought I was the only one. Quick, toss some peanuts in there! For science!
Hard to say. In fiction, it seems writers overlook that sort of stuff. It makes little sense when you think about it and look at the big picture.
Why are vampires never worried about bloodborne diseases they might catch from preying on humans? Why do zombies or other man-eating monsters choose humans (who are not only skinny, scrawny, and far more likely to fight back) rather than all the herds of cows, pigs, sheep and other cattle that would be easier to hunt and kill?
Then you start questioning the logic behind every horror movie made and have to go lie down for a while...
Well, if we're trying to take this seriously, I guess the reason it wouldn't work is because the allergic people fused into the giant meatball is just a small portion of the whole thing, meaning the damage would also be minimal, making the attempt of a kill by peanuts or whatever kinda useless.
@@Bane_Amesta They're also usually dead which means their immune systems, the thing causing the allergic reactions, have shut down.
If the meatball is from Deadspace, I wouldn'd be surprised if they are just forced back unlive
To split hairs further, the dark brotherhood doesn't worship the night mother (cicero might) but they do worship sithis... Who is literally nothing supposedly, so maybe worshipping the night mother is more accurate 😅
But Sithis is somehow an intelligent, powerful nothing. Easily on par with, if not beyond, the actual gods of the setting. So... I don't know if that makes it better or worse.
@@nightsong81 Tbf, Sithis isn't exactly nothing. According to Lore. He (yes a literal He) was the Birthed Soul Incarnate of the Old God Padomay (Chaos and Change), and the opposite of Anui-El (the Birthed Soul Incarnate of the Old God Anu (Stasis, Order, Light).
It was actually Sithis that kick started the creation of all Existence, by giving birth to countless ideas and creations (as Chaos and Change is want to do). And is a counter force to the Static, Self Reflection that is Anui-El (as Stasis and Order is want to do.).
My first thought when I saw Elden Ring on this list was Godwyn/the Prince of Death. But the Fingers are really gross, too. Honestly, most of what people worship in Elden Ring is pretty gross.
Isn't it also kinda hinted at the Two Fingers from Elden Ring is just one half of hand that's been ripped in two. And the second half is the frenzied Three Fingers. Makes it even worse.
It’s pretty fucking metal, is what it is! Lol
My thought was going to be Miquella at the Moghwyn palace.
@@alliestevens5264 miquella isn’t really worshipped though, is he?
They tell you multiple times in game that the breaking of the Elden Ring started the decay, they thought taking out the death sigil would just make them immortal because they didn't understand death as a necessity of renewal. Imagine if instead of our bodies dying because our cells can't replicate anymore they instead kept replicating endlessly but getting more and more cancerous due to the damaged DNA.
13:20 Night Mother Jane? You've got my vote Ms Douglas.
Mother Douglas has a ring to it
There are other weird things being worshipped in Elden Ring, including literal rot, blood, a flame that drives people mad, just to name a few. So I don't know if worshipping some giant fingers is even the weirdest cult that exists within the Lands Between.
it's all kind of explained in game and make most of them less weird, they all look horrible due to the breaking of the ring to become immortal essentially not repairing their DNA, obviously they don't know the reason, so they keep living but they are becoming more and more cancerous. The fingers and a few of the other things supposedly looked fine before and the rest are basically seen as a way out of the torment of their eternal bodies decaying around them. Basically you have 2 camps of belief in elden ring:
Those trying to fix the ring or stop the decay but stay immortal
Those who just want the torment to end
and the end the torment group just keeps growing and diversifying as people give up first on immortality, then repairing it, and then each and every way of killing themselves since as far as I've see they just seem to be on the level of making them think they aren't in pain while messing them up worse then ever like a real religion.
Flame that drives people mad? Sounds _profaned..._
It’s certainly the most impactful reveal of all of those
@@liamnehren1054 Fair. It does admittedly feel like the fingers are the least strange of the worship options provided to us, though that may just be me. Here's a theory: the Fingers are effectively acting as priests of the Greater Will, with the Finger Readers acting as interpreters for the Two Fingers themselves. The people aren't actually worshipping the Fingers themselves, but rather that they are using them to understand the Greater Will and therefore worship the Greater Will.
From what I can tell, however, the others don't really have the same kind of presence withing the world itself, though this might be simply because the Greater Will has imposed itself to such a great extent upon the Lands Between. Therefore, the other outer gods simply haven't been given a chance to establish themselves nearly as well. The only possible exception I can think of off the top of my head is potentially the Frenzied Flame, as they have the Three Fingers.
Gotta love ramblings.
@@joshuagross3151 *Giant Noises*? I really should learn more about the Profaned Flame....
I was hoping to see the Elder God, from the Legacy of Kain series.
Raziel: "And if I told Moebius that he's worshipping a giant squid, do you think his faith will falter?"
Elder God: "You have grown willful, Raziel."
While I understand not having three entries from FromSoftware games, I do think Aldrich, Devourer of Gods deserves to be on this list. He was a saint who was so incredibly gluttonous that he became a giant slug and started being worshipped by the other clerics of the deep who became heretics and began using pyromancy magic
I think we need "7 grossest things worshipped by people for some reason: Fromsoftware version" video as an extension of this
Well... To be more exact about what Aldrich became... Its not an all devouring slug... But His own organs and skin simply popped out of him because he became just too big for His Mortal body
Instead of the tsar fish in this list, we could use the giant carp from Sekiro. Not quite as grotesque and Aldrich, though the nobles that serve it definitely don’t win any awards. Not when they steal youth, and force servitude to the carp.
To be fair Aldrich wasn’t super worshipped. He was just the highest cleric of the Deep which was the actual object of worship, plus his followers didn’t seem all that devout, with their inverted voicelines being cries for help and how he’s going to kill them and all
He's not even a slug, Just a pile of black goo.
2:43 Don't say that Mike. I don't know what your definition of success is but you make millions of people happy everyday and this channel help people through their life when things seem bad. So that has to count to something.
Plus you get to play d&d with friends as part of your job. ; )
That's the kind of success I wish I could have!
In Fallout 3: A tree fused with a man whose heart is now outside his body in a cave.
In Final Fantasy 6: Kefka
In Elder Scrolls Oblivion: Hermaeus Mora
In Call of Cthulhu: Cthulhu
...and these are just off the top of my head. I'm pretty sure one could make a list of ONLY beings from the Final Fantasy series.
Harold if I remember rightly.
To be fair kefka was just a strong guy for a while and a lot of the worship to him was under mind control
If we're talking Fallout and worshipping "gross" things, Harold is high on the list, but the Interloper is higher. A subsect of the Mothman Cult -- yeah, so already we're in trouble -- called the Dim Ones worship this...thing...that you can find in the Lucky Hole mine.
Say what you want about the Children of the Atom, at least nuclear fusion isn't dripping with slime.
Harold: "Will you please just listen? Me and Bob are not the Chosen One!"
The Tree Minders: "He is the Chosen One!"
Kefka wasn't a god, although he did have a god complex, especially after gaining control of the three goddess statues. Final Fantasy has a lot of "god-like" antagonists, but oddly enough, not many of them are actual gods with an actual religious order. Barthandalus (FF13) was a god (Fal Cie) but kept his divinity secret, Cloud of Darkness (FF3) and Necron (FF9) came out of nowhere, and the gods of FF12 are mostly passive. Kuja, Seymour, Sephiroth, Kefka, Edea are really mortals with god complexes (or some variation thereof) and Vayne Solidor was about tearing mankind's destiny away from the gods (with the help of a renegade) and only fused with a god when cornered.
If you wanted to pick another Final Fantasy god, I'd suggest Yu Yevon, the being at the heart or Sin. SPOILERS: Yu Yevon was originally a Zanarkand summoner who created Sin during the war with Bevelle, and Bevelle ultimately created the Yevonite religion which revolved around pacifying this creature that is bent on Bevelle's utter destruction by sacrificing summoners for any brief respite whilst intentionally keeping the populace ignorant of Bevelle's guilt in Sin's creation.
What about mother Meranda? I thought “maybe THIS resident evil antagonist is not a giant abomination monster being worshipped by a small isolated town” only for her to transform into a giant abomination monster being worshipped by a small, isolated town. Thaaaats resident evil!
YEP. She fits the bill perfectly
Isn't Mother Miranda only the second Resident Evil Antagonist who transforms into a monster being worshipped by a small town? I know Saddler definitely counts , but I think all the rest were are evil scientists or B.O.W's
Not really sure if this counts, but I feel like Duma/Doma (the Japanese name, I think) from Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia would be a good fit for this. Duma is a divine dragon, which are worshipped in the Fire Emblem games, however, despite being a "Divine" Dragon, he looks like spoiled meatloaf made out of lizards. He has broken, decaying wings, one eyeball, and his flesh appears to be decaying. Not to mention there's the regular practice of sacrificing young women to him to gain immense power, this process turns the women into what is known as a "witch" which is the empty husk of the girl that was sacrificed because Duma ate her soul. Also, when he appears to his followers, known as the Duma Faithful, he decides to appear as a gross, veiny, eyeball, instead of a dragon, or a human form which he does have, but doesn't care to use for some reason. And he lives in a poisonous swamp underneath a castle, so I can't imagine he smells very good either. So yeah, Duma would definitely fit for this list, if there's commenter edition at some point in the future.
Oh my gosh, I love dragons. I don't care about any of that, dragons are just so majestic to me and I have dreams of serving one all the time
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 Church route three houses- not gonna say why how or when but it can be counted
Just for the record Duma didn't ALWAYS look like that. His mind just rotted due to the sheer power dragons possessed and his body and mind eventually twisted into a violent and rotting beast while his faithful wound up being corrupt bastards who fed the near mindless beast souls in exchange for power.
Sound like a eldrich abomination or some sort of lower outside god
@@accelerator8558 eh the lore explanation is that Dragons power makes them naturally consume more magic than the land produces and eventually they wind up becoming basically malnourished and go crazy from it. They counterbalance it by sealing their power in stones to only use when needed, but some chose to forgo the stones for one reason or another and this was the end result
Speaking of FromSoft I would also bring up the giant immortal koi carp from Sekiro. The thing is not that bad at first blush but then you see that it actually has human like teeth and just gets more disgusting from there.
Unfortunately, it takes more than human-esque teeth to count as disgusting, so we need some more details.
That thing is so hideous no one that worshipped it its funny
Jane's haircut is awesome!
About Sephirot, his dad is Hojo - if you see the character design, he's not that beautiful (*yuck*) and Sephirot didn't really take on Hojo's appearance side
As for his REAL mother, it's Lucrecia (Sephiirot was lied to, many times duringhis life) and she was/is quite pretty
Not entirely a lie considering his DNA is full of Jenova, but yes he completely omitted the details about Lucrecia.
YOU SHALL NOT DISRESPECT OUR BELOVED NIGHT MOTHER. HAIL SITHIS.
Peace my brother. We will punish them for their vile rhetoric. Hail Sithis!
"Some Lovcraftian nonsense" took me by surprise. What a great description of the Bloodborne gods.
I mean it’s appropriate that Jane lowers our expectations for weird things to worship.
Lowers, or raises?
@@devinspencer1678 Both I would say 🧐🧐🧐
A beautiful woman telling you that your thing is weird can be taken more than one way.
I was expecting them to pick one of the other Daedric princes in TES. Perhaps Hermaeus Mora, Peryite or maybe Namira.
or just one of them because the brotherhood doesn't worship a daedric prince. They worship Sithis who is a step up from aedra and daedra
To be fair, Hermaeus Mora got a bunch of screen time during the game, and tentacle monsters are pretty par for the course. I honestly didn't think there was anything period outright disgusting about him
Still jealous of Jane's hair... tell me how Jane!
I think she’s prego
When you mentioned the followers in FF7 going to “Mother” I am surprised you didn’t mention the 3 goons from FF7 Advent Children movie.
Ahhh yes loz yazoo and kadaj ,gotta love em
Well despite AC being part of the compilation it isn't a game, it's a movie. They are remnants of Sephiroth who calls Jenova his mother.
What about the Elder God from the Legacy of Kain series? Raziel even calls out an enemy for worshipping a giant squid 🐙
Mike's catfishing joke went over everybody's head.
@@mr.mephitis2492 Those people are the absolute worst.
Kinda sounds transphobic ngl
@aardbei54 that's not how that works
All hail our glorious leader Jane. Please don't lock me in the dungeon behind the cellar again. In other news, I love guessing who got the capture for which bit. Elden Ring, Luke. Dead Space, Jane. Primal Rage, Andy is the fighting game lover but Mike has the retro setup. Hmm.
I think the Elden Ring capture is actually Jane's. She mentioned in another video earlier that she's been playing it and has been using the Bloodhound's Fang. In what little I've seen of Luke's capture, he was using some greatsword style weapon because he was excited about the special moves it could do. That and you can see the character has long hair pulled into a braid around the head and there's no facial hair (Luke tends to put facial hair on his characters).
I think luke did bloodborne.
@@massgunner4152 Luke did and Jane did the Elden Ring capture.
There is the heretical contention that The Night Mother is one of the many disguises of the Daedric prince Mephala, brought about when Vivec assumed the aspect of Mephala and demanded that the Morag Tong revere him instead. A splinter faction who refused this became The Dark Brotherhood and continued to revere Mephala in a more mummified form.
It's noteworthy that Mephala's quest in Skyrim centers around a voice that only particular people can hear. And this leads to the canonical possibility that, should the player refuse to follow the Dark Brotherhood storyline, then the jarl's son is fated to become The Listener in the next generation since he was able to hear the whispers first.
Love this channel and the worship of the number 7
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how amazing Jane's hair looks?
Which one ?
I would say Hermaeus Mora from the Elder Scrolls series since he’s a giant mass of gross eyeballs and tentacles but he’s a deadric prince and they get all sorts of worshippers. A second option I’d say is Corypheus from Dragon Age Inquisition, he’s a Tevinter Magister who tried to reach the Golden City and was cursed to become a Darkspawn as a result of the ritual he participated in for that. Later in Inquisition he’s hailed as a god who can’t die (he binded part of his being into a red lyrium corrupted dragon) and spreads the influence of dark blood magic and red lyrium across the land. He’s not really a god but he amassed a whole army of followers who believed he was one and his appearance is quite gross
Surprised they didn't mention Hermaeus Mora from The Elder Scrolls. The statue in Cyrodiil is one thing, actual tentacles coming out of a doorway are another.
Just in case nobody has pointed out; the Indominus' adaptive camouflage ability was inspired by the Carnotaurs in the Lost World novel :P *Scuttles away*
i was considering saying that very thing
The fact that Crichton retconned the events from Jurassic Park to fit with Spielberg's film proves that The Lost World was less a sequel to the original novel and more a treatment for another movie.
@@BogeyTheBear wasn't he the one that admitted "they put money on my table to write a sequel, despite never having planned to, who's going to say no?"
That part in the book is so terrifying. The other dinosaurs just leave that area completely alone at night, even the raptors left them alone. To be fair, in the book it is only at night time that the camouflage is effective, not in daytime like with the indominus. On a side note, the Lost World would have been a much better movie if they had stuck to the book they had paid Crichton to write. The only scene they did well, was the trailer over the cliff scene, which I think actually works better in the movie.
@@BogeyTheBear Yeah, he literally wrote Ian Malcolm back to life, as well as Richard Hammond, who gets chomped by compies at the end of the first book. The weirdest thing for me, when reading Jurassic Park, was having the lawyer as one of the main characters. I do think Jurassic Park might actually be better as a movie than as a book, but I guess the book didn't have John Williams or Spielberg. The same cannot be said for The Lost World.
I feel it should be said, Namira from the elder scrolls series falls very firmly into this category. I love her, but yeesh.
Rather eat the dead, then literally drink diseased puss and become a carrier. But at least that dragon is a looker, when he doesn't show himself as a rat instead.
Hermaeus Mora from the Elder Scrolls is pretty nasty too. Especially when you meet him in the Skyrim DLC
You can actually kill the Tsar Fish if you want. You need to lure it to a specific spot and drop some stuff on it's head
One of my favs is Destiny: The insect-like race now called the Hive we’re going to be saved by the traveler from their miserable existence but decided to worship some giant worms (that are gods but still big worms). Then the leaders injected some worm larva into their bodies and now all they want to destroy the universe
To be fair, they never actually got word that they were going to be saved by the mystic space circle, the traveler, because the first disciple of the smokey-headed-triangle-man sent them the worms that said there would be a cataclysm and they had to leave their home planet now or be destroyed.
God I love the lore of Destiny.
"Must've gotten his looks from his dad's side" considering who Sephiroth's dad is, yeah no.
In the defense of the unitologists, the marker has mind altering/mind control powers. And the markers are everywhere.
"Jenovah's Witnesses" is by far the best pun I've heard on this channel.
"Genova's witnesses". 🤣🤣That earned a like by itself.
Technically, Ebrietas is a very powerful Kin rather than a true Great One. Ebrietas bleeds the pale yellow fluid that Kin bleed. True Great Ones bleed a red fluid that looks like true blood. Although I am not sure if it IS true blood because of the Lovecraftian nature of the Great Ones.
For Elden Ring, we didn’t talk about Praetor Rykard!? That guy is the single most disgusting thing and the people in Volcano Manor practically worship him (or his ideas)
Jenova's WItnesses... made my day
I heard that joke before and it is still funny.
I was expecting the Thorian from mass effect, although that’s more mind control it is definitely up there on the gross list
I'd have picked Jacob Taylor's dad as the weirdest and grossest thing worshipped.
I feel like Death Trash deserves to be on here, people literally worship sentient flesh including a Flesh Kraken you meet immediately after the tutorial who apparently just wants a friend.
Are we not all sentient flesh?
@@WetSaucySlommy Arguably, yes, but when meat starts growing from the floor and then starts talking to me the last thing I'm gonna do is pray to it
I was so confused when there wasn't an Elder Scrolls game in the spoiler list. Those games are practically jam packed with gross things to worship. I guess it was just because it isn't a spoiler really.
Skyrim is an Elder Scrolls game. It's the fifth one.
@@dairoleon2682 True! It's not in the spoiler list at the start though for whatever reason.
I thought of the Leviathan from Call of Cthulhu. Believe it checks all the boxes for this list.
In addition for the two fingers, they’re not so morally great either. It’s implied in item descriptions that the greater will essentially enslaves all mortals, by taking away all free will.
it's genuinely so nice to see the Ray Sunshine cameo whenever Bloodborne comes up
That overview of Elden Ring metaphysics - thank God for Vaati, I imagine.
Sephiroth definitely got his looks from…well, anyone but his father 😅😵🤮 disgusting as it is to have Hojo for a father, it’s still true 😔🤮
Well, Sephiroth had a human mother, too, and by all indications Lucretia was quite a looker.
Jenova's Witnesses was a good one. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Seriously, how has no one else heard that joke in the last 25 years?
7:54 LMAO 🤣 13:06 OMG you're killing me this is so funny 😆 Excellent work! 👏
Jenovas witnesses. Mikes dead pan delivery of his jokes always makes them funnier.
If Jane is the night mother, who's the speaker? I have Luke as Cicero and Ellen as the Dragonborn speaker in this cute tableau in my mind
The nightmother in Skyrim kept me up for days when i was a kid
That Jenova's Witnesses joke was made in a VG Cats comics about 16 years ago, still funny. I also like the licensed the Chocobo inbreeder comic, and the one with HK-47...
Now I have to back and re-read all the VG Cats comics
Amusingly, if you overlay the Two Fingers and the Three Fingers (the frenzied flame source of worship), they actually create a full hand, with the frenzied flame fingers forming the thumb, ring, and pinkie fingers, and the Two Fingers forming the pointer and middle fingers!
Also yes Cthulhu has a belly button in his original appearance. For some reason.
"I can't wait for Unitology to talk their way out of this one"
Well, I mean.... they weren't *_wrong..._*
It's kind of tangentially related, but in the Halo novels and comics, there's an insane faction of the Covenant that worships the Flood. Once the Flood were found on one of the Halos, they intentionally lowered their ship's shields to intentionally let the Flood on board, and were subsequently destroyed by more sane Covenant ship masters. Apparently, these fanatics believed that the Flood were a creation of the Forerunners (which, spoiler alert: they're not), and as such, should be worshipped just as much as the Forerunners are.
"Or should I say GERALD." Geralds the world over hang their heads in shame.
I'm watching these two recommendations in the end of the video after today, when I did indeed hurt my hands with my nonsense. Very accurate, outsidexbox.
I love your hair, Jane! Looks amazing as always!
The two fingers can't flip you off, just point. Three finger on the other hand.
In Brutal Legend, the Tainted Coil faction used to worship the toenail clipping of a titan, who they used to worship before they left
Perfect list video to send me to sleep. I'll definitely watch it now and not after I've had my morning coffee.
3, Wow, that fish is really pesc-y!
Worshipping Chaos?
Yes Inquistor, this video right here...
"More like Greater Won't" is definitely what Ranni Said.
Actually that'd be a good name for an achievement for getting the Ranni ending.
A minor one is from Advanced Wars: Days of ruin. There is an entire cult around a literary worm in hopes that it will prevent a virus that grows flowers out from you as you live
i like how at 6:34 they chose a clip of a voice actor quite clearly saying "Star Fish" instead of Tsarfish xD
Does Magus from Guardians of the Galaxy count for this? Weird Crystallized Space Worm (that eventually becomes a weird crystallized space man) that essentially corrupts the minds of billions across the galaxy and gives them a false life.
In Primal Rage, when humans move from their standard background position as cheerleaders and start prostrating themselves on the same plane that the monsters are fighting on, you can scoop them up and eat them there too. Gives a little health right there, but knocks a hundred (or something like that) off the total you have.
The eating worshipers bit in general and the 'no cheese' that separates the monsters when one is clearly cheesing the other (complete with flashing icon of a wedge of cheese with a 'no' symbol on top of it) were two of the best part of that game. Which was one of the two games I got along with my Playstation back in the big dvd style box, gen 1, no dual analog (let alone dual shock) days. (The other game I got that day was Street Fighter Alpha)
Primal Rage AND SF Alpha. Pretty good day!
@@outsidexbox Also getting to be the first person I knew with a Playstation. :D
edit: I meant to say "on the day I got my Playstation".
This video instantly brought Barotrauma to mind. A whole faction of characters worships the Husk parasite, a collection of creatures that turn your body (and that of the wildlife) into exactly what you think it does- husks. They rise through the throat, removing the ability to speak while choking the victim slowly, before they partially burst out of the mouth as a collection of tentacles and turn the victim into their zombie.
A zombie that can survive thousands of feet below the oceans of Europa. People WANT to go through this, by the way.
Nice haircut Jane, looks great!
Now if only the OxBoxers would take to being a creepy cult.
"Ox-Box...Ox-Box...Sorry what wad I saying?"

Lavos from Chrono Trigger. Giant world eating space bug thing kinda looks like the lady bits from teeth.
"Are you flipping me off or is that that the number one?"
"If it's one count to two."
Was anyone else expecting anything from Fallout? My pick would have been the mutant stuck inside a tree that had grown out of his head.
As for their picks... Well, they're not wrong about any of them, but in fairness- (click to read more for butt-hurt).
Jenovah was described by Aerith's mother as a kind of infiltrator -- something that took many forms and corrupted them from within. So the original Jenovah could have been as beautiful as your imagination is capable of comprehending.... Sephiroth for the English, a triple-cheeseburger with breast implants and an AR-15 for the Americans (sorry, it was too easy). The Jenovah we see in the game is actually a corpse, albeit one that retains its shapeshifting abilities and (yes, this is real) TOOK THE FORM OF SEPHIROTH!!! Yeah, all those Sephiroth encounters you had? That was actually Jenovah in the form of Sephiroth and the real Sephiroth has been controlling it from the core ever since Cloud chucked him into Nibelheim's mako reactor.
And Chaos... Well, yes, all of that is true. But you left out one important detail: Chaos was originally a human shaman. So while he may indeed be a disgusting fart monster, he probably still represents the best chance for humanity.
That catfish joke confused me for like a full 2 seconds.
Jane... *JAAAAAANE!!!* What have you done to your hair?! Yes, that's my takeaway from this video. The loss of Jane's dark, silky locks! Why, Jane? *WHY?!?* 😭😭😭
She moved her parting about one inch closer to the centre.
THIS HERESY MUST NOT STAND.
Thatjenova's witnesses part made me laugh out loud
Just remembered the Ganado from RE4 and the villagers from RE8 worship an evil plant and a mold hive mind respectively. This is why we should worship Dark Queen Jane, she isn't unpleasant to look at and she only asks us to sacrifice members of rival gaming channels.
The villagers didn't worship the mold, but Miranda who was using the mold. They weren't even really aware of the molds existence
@@CodaBlairLucarioEmperor A lot of wiki pages and theory videos I have seen refer to the mold as the "Black God" with Miranda as a sort of profit, it's why the cult symbol is in the image of the megamycete.
To be fair to the jenova worshippers she does look strikingly similar to angels
You spelled it wrong.

I got the Futurama reference - "look at Donkey Kong, here. Have you smelled his loin-cloth lately?" Dr. Zoidberg: "Yes" :))
Props to finally getting around to Primal Rage! When are we gonna hit my other early 90s buddies? Hugo’s House of Horrors, Original 2 Commander Keen, Jones in the Fast Lane, Amazon Trail, Mech Warrior, Original 2 Duke Nukems, Skunny?
