everyone is talking about their deity. nobody is talking about the 'GOING ALONE' option. the badassery of being offered to take any deities blessing and turning it down because you dont want it is something else entirely.
enemy of the gods
@@dunescapetube3470 that would be the achievement name for completing the full game without any deities
@@cloverlovania You would have to kill the deities aswell...
@@cloverlovania I think an achievement where you complete a run with no deities would be called "And what is a God..." or "Non-believer"
Achievement obtained:
"Atheist"
Go alone:
Run start: "This is your story."
Death: "No one else to blame."
Victory: "This is your victory."
I don't need gods
Run start: "I needn't boons nor blessings. Those who do not fear death shall see me. And I shall make them fear living."
Death: "May my folly... Be another's victory..."
Halfway Point: "No gods, no masters, I only need myself to triumph."
Victory: "I am the beast I worship."
Victory: “Yay! You won, this is your victory and you have won. (Win)”
cool
"I SEE NO GODS HERE, BUT ME!"
The leftmost guy looks like he's about to call me an insignificant fuck and lose to a gopro.
thats what i was saying
Took me 20 seconds for it to sink in
YOU MAKE EVEN THE DEVIL CRY
all the Deities' reactions when the chooser is actually V1:
foolishness machine, foolishness
Plot Twist: The Deity you select will be the final boss.
oh dear
Image if go alone you fight a better yourself better items better stats just better than you in general
@PumpkinKiddo_. I have two guess on what it might be if you go alone.
The first one is that you will meet a doppelganger that says"You and i are the same, but one shall stand and other fall" He is a completely mirror version, if your build is on strength Slasher type, the doppelganger will be a wizard with low damage, high fire rate spell.
The second one is a future version of yourself, you are unsure on what armour he has since its nothing like the Amour you collect or buy and he says"Through the journey its been everthing i have desired of, And i shall be thy one and only Championship"It can predic your next move by analyze the attack patern, forcing you to build a new strategy that is completely diferent.
i imagine if you go alone its the most brutally hardcore run you can take, and the final boss is all of the deities at once, but if you win you get the best ending, and after you beat it instead of "Choose a deity to bless your run" it turns into "Choose a servant to devote to your run" implying that you have risen above the deities and become their master
follow up: the run will also have to be longer for difficulty and to give the player more time to gear up
Go alone: you just toaster in bathtub yourself
Now I can only wish for a “The Hope” deity.
No debuffs, but the run itself is intensified in difficulty
“The hardest to hold on to”
That’s so good
What about "Despair"? Alternate version and harder version of "The Hope", lots of nerfs to the main character, more intense difficulty, very rewarding once completed.
Could be that it gives you limited time buffs alongside making the entire run harder to fit with the flavour text.
@@slime_katzu @adorabomber123
In that case
Hope: Double growth/drops rewards, boss much more stronger with more patterns (because hope is meant to be crushed at the end)
Despair: Half growth/drops rewards, switch some rewards for cursed version with an additional debuff, double final score.
@@slime_katzu it also makes the blood pink
It's surprising how just an image and a song can inspire people to think of a game that doesn't exist...
And i want to play that game too...
Same
I expect that this would make for an interesting roguelike.
@@OST1350i think this game matches with 20 minutes until dawn type games
Wait until you see the lore that people came up with for the Tuba Knight theme
OMG, you too? I also wanna play it.
Ngl I like how the designs of each deity represents both their personalities and the benefits they provide.
The Wanderer wears a heavy steel helm and silver armor, with deep lacerations on its neck and blood on its horns. It is a mercenary that has seen many battles and taken many lives, and it gives you the power to do the same in exchange for the treasures you find.
The Wisened is cloaked in grey, red, and white, half of its mask ripped away to reveal claw marks on its face. It has opened itself up to forbidden Eltritch knowledge, and it will share such secrets with you as it steals your strength in return.
The End represents the inevitable, the cold and inescapable grasp of death; it gives you the power to take lives and makes your own death all the more likely. With crimson claws reaching out and a blood red symbol on its face, The End is a cruel reminder of inescapable death.
The Harvest wears razor thorns as a cloak and branches grow from its head, a bounty for the taking and blood waiting to be spilled. It will give you gold and material items freely, yet its grasp will restrict you and its thorns will rend you vulnerable.
Chaos is random and abstract, floating stars and spinning dice collecting together in a whilwind of change and chance. Chaos feels no malice and extends no boons; every thing it offers is random, a selection of infinite possibilities where neither the deity nor the player have any control.
Nice analysis.
The end seems like It's completely hollow, and seemingly mostly a skeleton.
The symbol on The End's face is an ankh - an egyptian cross that can symbolise life and immortality, as well as death in reincarnation. The End's power is to quicken the end of life, giving it more value and bringing his followers to cherish it, and to take risks - to live to the fullest.
at least imo
I like how chaos breaks the mold by not facing away from The End. Fitting.
The others are afraid of The End, Chaos Is too Insane to even feel fear, and The End knows It's a toss up who would win between the two of them
"This is not a game".
Too late, I have already made an overly elaborate head cannon around a single fake screenshot.
I am very much interested about this, what's the headcanon?
Tbh same lmfao
@@PM_VA The sun set for the final time as the Rapture welcomed the worthy into the next realm. Those who embodied kindness, piousness, devotion and humbleness were guided far from the world, and along with them, the heavens too. For the first time in eternity, the world had no God. A husk, left behind, inhabited by all others: the doubtful, the cruel, the greedy, the proud, the unaware, all of whom abandoned in a barren world all the same. Without divine guidance, the world began to warp like a fever dream. Distance and time felt endless and instant all at once. Creeds and bloodlines lost meaning. What were once harmless shadows became birthing hives of blinking, confused, chittering beasts. Without a deity to guide it, the world had no image to make itself as.
But no world remains without a God forever. In the churning confused reality, new wills opened their eyes and spread their influence. One embodied and tamed everything about this new End. Another spread a wild overgrowing, strangling Harvest. One Wisened their followers to the old and new ways of thinking. Young Gods. Influential Gods. Jealous Gods. Gods who wished to bask in legions of zealous believers, chanting and worshiping in their name, deeming them the true craftsman of their otherwise pitiful future. Gods who would see all others subjugated and killed so that they may shape the world in their image.
Above all else, choosing a God defines ones self. It determines who else with wish death upon you and how you wish to see the world shaped. Fight for a name. Embrace humanity to reject the inevitable new world. Run from this dark crusade. Win or die in its glory. Choose a deity. Go alone. Pretend that your oath will change anything.
But you must choose.
You can't leave us hanging like this!
My headcanon if anyone is interested:
You play as an entity called a “Reaper”, who is sent down to Earth to eliminate all intelligent lifeforms in order to clear the way for the return of these “deities” depicted in the art. They need the planet cleared out because of the latent mental energy humans give off, which doesn’t allow them to be summoned on to the physical plane while in close proximity to large volumes of it.
(final goal being to get to the material plane to feast on the energies of the universe, obviously :)
The game could take place in a city like New York- there are several Reapers and each has their own assigned zone to clear, yours being this unnamed city. You clear through all pockets of human resistance before going rogue towards the end of the story, and you end up taking down another Reaper as the final boss- which is actually just a pvp match (which can be attempted multiple times) that allows you to finish the game after you win. Depending on which deity you take at the start you may get any of several different endings, ranging from turning the planet into a peaceful garden with absolutely no free will (harvest ending) to ending reality as we know it (true end ending)
I'm mad that this is not a game, but at least I found myself a new favorite artist and musician, checked every box in the list for me!
Glad you enjoyed it! Planning on making more music like this because I really like it too
I got so excited there for a moment too thinking it's a game. Someone needs to make this happen.
There is actually an indie game like this being developed i forgot the name but ill try to find it
@@mr.bulldops9482 PLEASE let me know when it releases
Looks like Honkai Star Rail's Simulated Universe but there might be others game which implemented it first.
Out of boredom (and probably sleep deprivation), my brain came up with a little scenario that I wrote down involving introductions into the characters, so I'm putting it here for fun:
“So… Who do you choose to be your deity?” asked the one in the middle.
I stared into where his eyes would be, before slowly turning my head side to side, observing the choices that stood before me. They each introduced themselves as I faced them. The first one, standing off to the far left, spoke first. “I am The Wanderer” he spoke with a voice rough like sandpaper. He seemed battle hardened, like he had been sitting down in this infernal pit for quite some time. He resumed quickly, saying, “I shall support your endeavors down here, but it will not be free. Your life, and any belongings you find, will be in my possession.”
I sat thinking for a second, before turning my attention to the one to the right of him. A soft, yet stern tone began emanating from them. “I am the Wisened,” she said, “I know all about this place, and am willing to share this information, but you will not be able to defend yourself as well. Knowledge is a price to pay after all.” From her appearance, she was battle-worn, and had clearly been down here for quite some time. Her clothes were torn, and appeared to be crudely stitched together, and her eyes were clearly stained with blood, practically saying that she couldn’t forget the things she had seen.
The middle one, my greeter, was next. His voice was deeper than The Wanderer, and much more aggressive. He spoke with the tone that told anyone not to come near him, but I had no choice. These chains held me in place. I turned my attention towards him and awaited his words. “Your fate has not yet been sealed. You have a chance. Now is your chance to find Solace in the Inevitable. Your violence may know no bounds, except those of your own mortal body.”
“Ah, don’t get to ahead of yourself, End. There are still more choices to be made,” said the one to The Ends right. They spoke in a gentle tone, as if they hadn’t been here for very long. They were like mothers, willing to help a child simply because they cared for them. “My name is The Harvest. My job is to help you find helpful things during your journey. However, don’t get too caught up on your scavenging. I cannot assist you when you get into combat.”
Finally, my attention gravitated towards the last deity that I hadn’t heard out. He had been watching me listen to the others the entire time. When I looked at him, a mischievous smile flashed across his face, before breaking out into a fit of laughter. His laugh echoed across the great hall that housed us 6. “Oh, my sweet, sweet captive. You can’t seriously be contemplating those buffoons’ silly little offers, now, can you? What’s the fun in half-baked promises with something to lose awaiting you? Let’s just leave it up to chance! Lady Luck seems to like you, after all. There is a reason you are down here…”
The Wisened chimed in quickly after he had settled down. “Chaos,” she said, “calm yourself. It is not up to you as to who is chosen. Besides, your… mentality is not a very good one.” The rest of the Deity’s quickly began chiming in, berating Chaos for his unique style.
“QUIET.”
The End was sick and tired of this disruption, so he quickly stopped it and turned the focus back onto me.
“Now.” The others turned back in my direction. The horns of the Wanderer. The dice in Chaos’ hands. The blood-stained eyes of the Wisened. The falling leaves of the Harvest. The empty void of the End. All watching me, awaiting my choice. The shackles that bound my wrists loosened, before the loud thud of them retracting echoed through the chamber. “Who will be your Guide?”
I took one last look at them all. They’re payoffs etched just below them, into the floor.
THE WANDERER:
Protection for a price.
The Wisened:
Forbidden Knowledge.
The End:
Find Solace in the Inevitable.
The Harvest:
A Bounty for the Patient.
Chaos:
Your fate is in their hands.
Just below me, there was one last message:
Turn and Leave. Your life does not belong to them.
This, my good friend, is the story of THE DAMNED.

it would be called "god's will" or "god's blessing" I think

Chaos embraces infinite possibilities, it just so happens that some of them are really boring.
Chaos in Practice is just a Go Alone Run but with a cooler name.
Yeah. That's definitely very random and chaotic.
You choose to go alone. Before you start, a small star falls down and lands on your hand. You then hear a whisper in your ear. "Stay safe, my child." The star then disappeared leaving behind a small medal in your hand.
Is that a reference?
Go alone.
"Some deities look at you with slight frown on their faces."
"Some deities are laughing"
"Some deities wishes you good luck"

that way you can farm the Black Gloom for Souls and upgrade your Stats for 'Mutilation' (Dmg) and 'Thorns' (Endu)

The End
Choice screen: "Dear beloved, this is only the start of your epic. I sorrow in being cruel to you, but no one reaches Me loved."
Start: You feel yourself die as your god comforts you (-HP), flesh torn from skin, the agony persists (-DEF). You revive empty, cold, wrong, and powerful (+ATK +SPD).
Defeat: The End frowns in pity. You wonder if even The End cannot stand the inevitable. You wonder if there is no solace to be found. You wonder if it lied to you. You die, for the final time, on the bosom of your lord. The End consumes you whole.
Victory: The End looks upon you with astonishment. You rise your head and wonder, is this finally the end? You hear it whisper sweet loves by your ear. You don't feel enough anymore to care. You die, for the final time, on the lips of your god. The End consumes you, but you find no victory, no solace.
Dialouge:
"Is there a Beginning Diety, End?"
"None."
"Why not? If there's an End, shouldn't a beginning exist?"
"You seem to think the two are separate. Your end may just as well be another's beginning. What am I if not the same?"
Dialouge:
"Will you miss me if I die, End?"
"Not in the way you believe."
"...care to elaborate?"
"I won't see you again in your afterlife, after all, I am not The Dead. Nor am I Chaos, who surpasses each realm. I control each, and every, end. So, in a way, your death will be fleeting, but my memory of you will be vitalized by all who die the same as you. Empty, desperate, yet righteous. I will never forget you, love, but you will forget me."
Dialouge:
"End, what are the exiled?"
"Traitors."
"In what way?"
"...perhaps you should've chosen The Wisened. Then you'd learn not to ask such questions."
"Okay... who exiled them?"
"You did."
"What? That doesn't make sense."

" Well, well. It appears you've evaded my blades for a few moments. I am surprised at your competence; Could it be that you are a half-lord? That you have wrung your neck enough times to understand that it is the beings you must fear, not the steel they wield?"
If you are close to death:
"You are weak. You still have a fighting spirit inside of your carapace, though I will not allow it to twitch much longer. Remember your pact before you take another strike."
If you cheat death:
"Had The End seen your display of trickery, they would have came down themselves and twisted you like those sugary falsehoods your kind enjoy so much, trying to imitate us. Pretzel twists, I believe you call them. Be glad I praise such trechery."

Start: "Red was and will be your blood spilled to try to prove yourself"
Death: "For glory sacrifices must be made"
Finished Run: "More things await you"
The secret path
To get more deities you need to first find the secret path
To find it, one must complete a run with all deities normal and rare deities.
Continuing, pick glory for a new run, find the book of secrets (its an item) and use it after defeating the final boss of the run.
A door will manifest and you will go through it and thus unlock the secret path.
The secret path has new enemies, new bosses and new items, the secret path can be accessed in the menu after being unlocked.
After beating the secret path you will find three paths: Dark path, Flesh path and Sacred path, all these paths unlock 3 diffrent deities

“Chaos huh? Strange choice man, I mean you get extra loot and higher stats, but you know he fights you every time you clear a dungeon, right?”
Two things:
1. nice song
2. now I want a roguelike/hoard slasher with this as the sound track
just wanna say, song is even more of a banger when sped up
closest you can get is Hades or Blasphemous
@@DownShK in terms of sound track, but at least Hades has different gameplay compared to what I'm thinking about.
And I got Hades a year or so ago, the OST is awesome, the fact the developers uploaded it themselves is great.
@@aston8or08 good to know I will give it a try after work
Boyyyyy, if I only had the skills to develop a roguelike like this I would have done it years ago. Also the soundtrack has some major Master Boot Record vibes.
I feel like “GO ALONE” would give you the best ending. Imagine you get to the end the game on any deity but can’t reach the end because you’re chained to that deity. So going alone you get the true good ending and all that jazz.
you mean being atheist?
@@dvdbox360no, you still know these gods exist, its that you wont accept any of their blessings.
@@spawnpoint111More like an anti-theist than an atheist then
@@spawnpoint111 so like agnosticism?
@maui.8957 no, that would be suspending judgement on whether the gods exist or not. i also think anti-theist makes sense maybe
“Go Alone.”

The transcendent
" Your memories shatter, yet the body still remembers"
Victory:" Now you know yourself, stronger than ever"
Death:" Such a shame, and here we thought you would succeed this time"
Think of this one as a rebirth- you keep all your abilities but loose all memory. I also hope the dialogue is interesting as I tried to make it sound cool and all epic and whatnot.
Twas epic and cool, good stuff here.
Just like with Roblox Rebirth?
Keep all abilities, both loose exp?
@@anonimie7142 never heard of that but yeah you're reset but you keep all skill's
I imagine Chaos being the most difficult run for the players who mastered the game and want a real challenge, and Chaos giving you the best random +stats, but also the worst -stats, and literally breaking the game, changing the game's visual, making the background ever twisting never stopping chaotic mess as well as character's body, making it mutate as you go through the run.
sounds similar to Oskar Obnoxious in the rimworld modding community
Sounds like madness in Eden ring kinda. You're going to burn the world to the ground and grind everything to nothing because reasons
I those gods were to speak sharing lore I would assume The Wisened would give the most, while Chaos would just straight up lie, but only 50% of the time and you could never guess when.

'Go left! Go left!'
'Uhh, you sure? That way looks pretty... deadly.'
'No, go right!'
*goes right

'I told you to go left, dumbass!'
THE WANDERER: A good offense is a strong defense. And a great defense comes at a cost.
THE WISENED: Knowledge and wisdom go hand in hand. Without either, you are naught but a bumbling fool.
THE END: All withers away. And when they do, they shall meet you, my champion.
THE HARVEST: Manage your stocks, for the worst is yet to come. Be patient, and be cunning.
CHAOS: Reason and sanity holds you back, my blessed one. Perspective is worth nothing to the unpredictable.
GO ALONE: I can do it myself. The gods are mere chains that hold humanity back from achieving their full potential.
The go alone rute gave me Emperor of humanity vibes
THE HARVEST is decaying winter in a nutshell
ALL: gods are helpers that drive humanity forward.. if you ask their help at the right time
*can change between them*
THE WANDERER: must slay an enemy to change the god
THE WISENED: must level up to change the god
THE END: must lose 25% health to change the god
THE HARVEST: must collect 10 items / 1,000 gold to change the god
CHAOS: roll the dfice to see if you can change the god
the end mgs3
Honestly all of the quotes feel as if i am in a cutscene with all the paths but i would pick chaos,the end, or going alone.
Chaos looks like he'd bully you but when you're in a life and death situation he'd help you by overpowering the enemy
He's called chaos. So I feel like he'd be a collection of minds much like the stars in his body all separate yet the same mold.
My headcanon if anyone is interested (they’re not, but I wanted to write this down anyways):
You play as an entity called a “Reaper”, who is sent down to Earth to eliminate all intelligent lifeforms in order to clear the way for the return of these “deities” depicted in the art. They need the planet cleared out because of the latent mental energy humans give off, which doesn’t allow them to be summoned on to the physical plane while in close proximity to large volumes of it.
(final goal being to get to the material plane to feast on the energies of the universe, obviously :)
The game could take place in a city like New York- there are several Reapers and each has their own assigned zone to clear, yours being this unnamed city. You clear through all pockets of human resistance before going rogue towards the end of the story, and you end up taking down another Reaper as the final boss- which is actually just a pvp match (which can be attempted multiple times) that allows you to finish the game after you win. Depending on which deity you take at the start you may get any of several different endings, ranging from turning the planet into a peaceful garden with absolutely no free will (harvest ending) to ending reality as we know it (true end ending)
Going alone could have you become a god, and lets you keep certain items and get certain boons/buffs after you complete a run.
Safehouse:
The wanderer: Steel yourself. Your job isnt done.
The Wisened: Gather your mind. This quiet is short.
The End: A brief respite against the inevitable.
The Harvest: Sharpen your scythes. Weave your baskets.
Chaos: Perhaps a moment to reflect?
Treasure:
The Wanderer: A trinket. To bolster your mortal flesh.
The Wisened: Bounty beyond your mortal understanding
The End: A means to the End
The Harvest: A bumper harvest!

"BEHOLD! THE POWER OF AN ANGEL!"
The Harvest is perfect for a more tanky, regen-build, but judging from the recent announcements, I'm gonna become a The Devourer main. The lifesteal, kills-for-heals, and overall aesthetic have won me over.
Stats: +item, +hp, -speed, -dexterity (weapons aren't as effective)
Special:
bottomless greed: heal from melee attacks and on kill.
Starved: when not attacking enemies, reduce the hunger meter, when depleted, gain status [frenzy]
Instinctual need: When under the Status effect [frenzy], gain additional health from Bottomless Greed and take additional damage. Target allies when under Status effect [frenzy]
Keywords:
Frenzy: become uncontrollable, while attacking and moving faster. Attacks harm allies, though do not target them.
Deity description: you're never satisfied with what you have.
Run start: you're eager for what lies in front of you.
Mid game: you need more, this isn't enough.
End game: there are not enough fish in the sea.
Death (starved): you feel... dissapointed, you wanted too much.
Death (enemy): you feel... unsatisfied, it was too much all at once.
Victory: you go on, stomach still rumbling for greed seeks eternity, deep deep eternity.
Fate unknown: why did you want so much, what was your goal beyond what was right in front of you?
@@wingdingfontbro
The low dexterity is probably why the Devourer was only using heavy weapons in the trailer. I was wondering why that was the case.
Honestly, this stat sheet further proves that the Devourer is a kind of foil for the new boss coming with the update; Nidhoggr. I guess that's why the Devourer looks vaguely draconic.
(Excellent write-up. Top fucking job, lad.)
I like to imagine that the in-game UI has your selected patron deity in the corner of the screen giving you hints with different learning AI learning how you play and advising you about different things.
Example: Your Patron Deity is The End and you haven't used dodge that much in the run.
"You always think that slowly walking away from an attack will be all it takes to avoid being hurt, and yet you always manage to waltz into my shrine and fill it with your dark ruby red life. If you're taking comfort in what you know will come, then don't, your inevitability is a privilege I have given and that which I can taketh away. "
Or maybe The Harvest in a run where you haven't picked up many heals.
"Now, now. You believe that because you have the capability to sprout that it is inevitable that you will blossom? If so, then might I remind you that even saplings die in a drought."
Or even The Wanderer in a ranged only run.
"You intrigue me with your mastery of ranged weapons, I am however, still disappointed due to your inability to wield a sword, or do you, in your mortal arrogance, believe *I* to be the one to protect you? If that is so then I shall sign your heart as next debt."
Y'know that shit!
Man I *LOVE* how full of life all of those dialogues feel!
The ominousness from The End, and how little you mean for it. It's visible it even detests your sole existence.
The eloquence of The Harvest, probably due to the closeness of human nature with its very own. How many would have sought after it in search for wealth and fortune after all?
Or the mentor vibes from The Wanderer's quote, like a master pointing out the flaws in their students tecniques (without hiding the clear lack of interest in whatever happens to you ofc).
Makes me imagine how would they react different from one another to the same player behavior, like abusing heals for example.
*The End:*
"Your fear to the inevitable disgusts me. Your petty attempts at fleeing from it are pointless, and only reflect your ineptitude with that sword. Learn how to grip your weapons, or don't you dare stench my shrines with your cowardly worthless life."
*The Harvest:*
"If I were you, I wouldn't be so reliant on those red vials of yours. They won't always be there to assist you, and a robust tree is worthless if its roots live in fear of wander away."
*The Wanderer:*
"Of all tactiques I've seen grow during the pass of time, yours is the one that rarely gets any far. Are you doing this on purpose, or you truly ignore your own potential that much? Either way, do better if you don't want to be marked by your next debt."
Y'all are so creative as fuck this shit is full of life!

If you choose the "Go Alone" option, after some decent level of progress, you will get the chance to choose a "Class" of sorts. These classes will counter the deities, giving you an edge against that particular deity. I like to imagine that until this point most of the deities will actively ignore you for the most part(except Chaos for obvious reasons), but once you choose a class the deity that the class counters will actively attempt to harm and hinder you. These are the options I came up with.

Ok, so I heard this rumor that there's a secret Deity you can unlock called *THE FALLEN.*
From what I heard, you have to do a run alone and search for these hidden rooms called Forgotten Shrines. There are 7, I think? There's usually a merchant or a priest in the rooms. What you have to do is offer the shrines some gold, an item, and you need to use a dark spell called Sacrificial Smite on the NPC in the Shrine room. Sacrificial Smite can be permanently learned if you get the bad ending on a Wizened run. You'll know you're on the right track if the vines wilt and the Shrines lit up.
After you've activated all 7 Shrines, you must continue up until the last level, just before the final boss room. DO NOT GO IN. Instead, head to the left wall and set off a bomb by the Knight statue. Doing this will reveal a secret room called the Forgotten Sanctuary. There are 7 statues in the room, surrounding a tombstone. Normally, in this room, the statues would be intact, but if you've activated all 7 shrines, the statues will be destroyed. All that is left to initiate the secret encounter is to approach the tombstone and cast Necromancy. This will trigger a boss rush where you have to fight 8 minibosses, one at a time. The first 7 are avatars of the Deities you can choose to serve before you start a run, but the last one will spawn from the grave. It's called The Lost Hero, and he's pretty hard from what I heard. If you manage to beat him, your game will crash. Don't fret, however. Because once you load up the game, you will now have an 8th Deity to choose, *THE FALLEN.*
"Inherit a Dark Legacy."
I don't know what choosing him does exactly, but from what I understand, you are stuck to using one weapon the entire run and can't use healing magic or potions.
MF out here spittin'
I want the lost hero
I've also heard that beating the run with his blessing is harder than beating it with chaos, mainly because the other deities will hate you and every single enemy will have a blessing from a random deity, but if you complete the run you will get the most OP weapon in the game, "The Throngler," it was added as a joke weapon but given very good stats
@@marioneira5165 cheeky, I remember that one
This dude should be a game developer.
"I'l play The Wanderer!"

The wanderer's the best for completing the altar of knowledge, which provides interesting lore and good weapon unlocks. He's also good for a ranged, mana focused build.
@@Gmann2021 Yeah I really feel like it should be wisened though like it's clear they meant it to be his own thing but it's the easiest to get as wanderer which I feel is a tragedy since that altar does get a really good side of em.
If this were a real game. it would be an amazing detail if the portraits changed depending on the rotation of the deity select wheel. You can see how "the end" is directly facing the screen, while the other deities face away with exceeding rotation, with chaos being the exception. I like to think that as you scroll through, there's 7 unique portraits with various rotation for each character
The fact that chaos is the exception also makes it easy. Their portrait would just be random everytime the wheel is rotated
Playstyles based on the character
Wanderer - Beginner-friendly tank
Wisened - Item and character unlock focused
End - Glass Cannon
Harvest - Buy items to get stronger

@@dafoilbrick5089 make the hope not have debuffs, and the despair only have debuffs.
@@deleted-test I feel like if there is no debuffs its like going easy mode.
maybe if like the despair god sends constant attacks that would be fun or intresting
@@GenericfacelessNPC i think theres nothing wrong with the hope being an easy mode, maybe it could work on a way so that it doesnt unlock any achievements ingame, and is only for newbies.
and then about the despair, make it the opposite; make it the hard mode, and make it give more loot so that its worthy playing, but really hard for the unexperienced, kind of like Wes in Don't Starve, but with an actual reward for playing it.
@@deleted-test hold on you got a point there
This may not be a game, but I found out two things, Kadabura is now one of my favorite artists and Cruzur is talented as hell and now a top 5 in my book
this song is metal asf man great job. i like the wacky proggy riff and the sfx as well as the solos. it almost brings to mind Haken's "Prosthetic" combined with basically any Slayer song for the drums
*Deity: The Furious*
Start: "A passion hotter than sun."
Death: "Suffer not any indignity."
Victory: "Unto the next meat grinder."
*Events*
Encounter: "Go for broke."
Treasure: "Fuel for the flame."
Safe rooms: "Even passion requires nurturing."
Traps: "A passion which blinds the unworthy."
man i can´t wait for the "rituals of the condemned" dlc, that "broken one" look sick as hell (literally) and his subtitle "remains of something bigger" is just awesome
Apparently the devs are renaming it for the actual release, "THE BROKEN" rather than "BROKEN ONE"
I heard that it doesnt give you any effects at first, you have to beat the game with it to get its full form
I though you'd have to die to get its full form? Kinda following the whole 'rebirth' storyline the previous DLC's were following lol

According to some leaks, The Broken is able so sort of "Repair" itself using the remains of Bosses enabling them to use their attacks, Like in the Profaned Abbey, The Abbot's Heretical Blaze Attack can be used by The Broken if they use the Mend skill while near the Abbot's corpse.
Apparently there's a unique ending if you use Mend on the final boss's corpse before ending the Run.
These are just leaks of course so they're subject to a lot of change.
Your art made me curious to check it out and then completely blessed by hearing the music.
Like god damn. More of this please.
Jokes aside these are one of the coolest things I have ever seen
The wanderer and the harvest are my favourite
The Hope (Unlocked by finishing all base runs)
"The hardest to hold onto."
+ALL
-Increased enemy difficulty
The Despair (Unlocked by finishing all base runs)
"The hardest to escape."
+Decreased enemy difficulty
-ALL
The Accended (Unlocked by finishing The Hope and The Despair)
"The monster you swore to destroy."
+Choose +Choose
-Choose -Choose
The Exile (Unlocked by finishing The Hope and The Despair)
"A deity in your own right, and your own making."
+All
-The fear of your former masters.
I wouldnt change enemy difficulty, i would add debuffs depending on whether you choose hope or despair, also the exile should be saved for after the ascended
Boosting stats and enemy AI is just pointless number inflation
go alone, no equipment and if we want, we can have the player need to save at shrines to their gods, thus no saving the game in going alone
@@geniuskhan2520unless the enemies themselves are actually changed, with at the very least new animations
mans dropped "The hardest to hold on to" as if it isnt the rawest line we ever did see
The Believer,
"Deluded by Faith, the Sacrifice"
Buffs: +Health +Exp
While in-game there would be a stage where if the player finds a shrine, they would have to offer certain amount of blood, flesh, or even one of their companions (recommended to be their human "companions"), to receive permanent empowerment or temporary blessing from their deity.
Also, as long as they kept themselves from harming others, they'll be able to help their comrades via healing them or tanking hits.
They are durable but with their diety being strict, they can die without their companion attacking their enemy.
Although, if they decided to not take companion, and instead kept offering their own flesh and blood at shrines, the rule of "not killing" will be lifted and instead they would be allowed to harm anyone who ridicules their deity, which technically means every enemies attacking the player.
Debuffs: -SPD -ITEM
***
Run Starts:
"Your devotion will be rewarded."
On Death:
"You are a fool."
On victory:
"Your faith will never falter."
On the shrine:
"You are their servant. Offer."
Taking the "Lone" path:
"You know the pain, and will keep them away from it."
Taking the "Company" path:
"Believe in God, everyone. Believe in God."
***
Remarks: technically the "masochist" of the game, I suggest not playing unless you want to have seizures in real time
THE EXILED
'Comfort in solitude'
Unlock requirements: Complete a Chaos run.
+Defense
+HP
+EXP
-Gold
-Item
-Unable to form parties with other players
Run start: 'They have all abandoned you... But I shall not.'
Level up: 'This new-found power is well-earned. Use it wisely.'
Death: 'Your suffering is over... Rest, my child.'
Victory: 'Finally, redemption...'
This goes pretty damn hard! great work!
For some reason I imagine that during the run you would get an ult, and using it will summon the avatar of your deity above you, with each of them saying a different phrase.
The Wanderer: "Tread your way." in a deep, soldier-like voice.
The Wisened: "Curious..." echoing, calm.
The End: "End them." booming, emotionless.
The Harvest: "Reap their suffering." female, innocent or happy voice.
The Chaos: "ITS SHOWTIME!" a cacophony of voice screaming at the top of their lungs
And I'm obliged to say, I'm the harvest main. But whatever deity we choose, remember... All paths lead to The End. *There is no escape.*
did you play Hades? lol
@@h2o848 Nope, only listened to music from it, why?
The harvest would probbably be the safest as im going to assume the enemies are weak at the beginning. So you are always same level of strength as the enemies since you get stronger over time.
I find it funny everyone sees Harvest as female. Not that I’m complaining though, Harvest mains for life!
Im happy to find a fellow Harvest main
