    "The universe is a yawning chasm filled with emptiness and the puerile meanderings of sentience." I remember I played this game while I was in 3rd grade, I used that in one of my essay things I had to write, my teacher read it and she was like "OH DAMN!"

      @@pg9193 KIDS THESE DAYS, AMIRITE? I drew the Arctic Wyvern from Actraiser in intricate detail from my paused screen and wholesale lifted the Aitos story from the instruction manual for an A+ in 7th grade. 1992. I was 12. I'm 41 now and still feel a tinge of regret for not coming up with an original idea as Lori Worthington instructed. I could have. Really should have :(

    Gotta love the way the Gods Interact with Pious,
    Chaturgha treats Pious like how a Battlemaster Sets his plan but leaves the Smaller or rather Political fallout to Pious
    Ulyaoth Treats Pious like a Scholar that's always 1 step ahead in Knowledge to his student
    Xelotath Treats pious as the arrogant-know it all Parent to the Naive Child with never ending Questions and bottomless hole of unfound knowledge

  • @dragonstormx
    @dragonstormx 15 лет назад +61

    All 3 Ancients seem have there own way of reminding Pious of their superiority over him.
    Chattur'gha: States that he is the source of Pious' power.
    Xel'lotath: States there is much Pious doesn't know and never will
    Ulyaoth: Is the most condescending, talking about there being things Pious doesn't understand and saying he's an insignificant speck in the vast universe.

    I think it's kind of hilarious that whenever one of Xel'otath's personalities is friendly and respectful to him (how many of the other Ancients actually refer to meeting Pious as a pleasure?) the other one always makes up for it by being the most psychotic, paranoid, aggressive bitch to him. You never know where you stand with her.

    Ulyaoth's opening line in this scene is one of the greatest in any piece of literature, game, book, or movie, that I have ever played/scene/read.

  • @JDLupus
    @JDLupus 17 лет назад +14

    Brilliant idea to compare all three of the same scenes between the 3 ancients in one video.
    The dialogue in eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem is nothing short of sheer genius, but my favourite ancient has to be Xel'lotath. The things she says are just nuggets of pure gold.
    For example, when she refers about Mantorok to Pious, "How can you, a mere mortal, comprehend what that entity represents, or what power it can wield? We know not, and we know more than thou."

  • @CinnabonChan
    @CinnabonChan 12 лет назад +11

    She's pretty paranoid. Even her two personalities don't agree on everything most of the time. They can't even make their minds up on whether they like Pius or not. I mean having one Xel'otath constantly switching between "Hi Pius, nice to see you mah boi" and "I DONT TRUST YOU FILTHY TRAITOR YOU SUCK", but when there's two, it must be one hell of a migraine. It's probably why Xel'otath creates most of her minions without heads to spare them the trouble of buying paracetamol.

    • @Spiralpaladin
      @Spiralpaladin Год назад

      And the best part is that it kindles some hope in your mind as the player. Some thought of "Maybe WE will be that miracle to save Charlemagne?" only for the game to slap you with reality and remind you that you still can't even remotely grasp the reach and power of what you are dealing with.

    @GoldLight73 11 лет назад +10

    You know, being the geek that I am, I've come up with a theory for the yellow Ancient. I believe the may really be all 4 Ancients in a sense. Like, its own form is so powerful the universe itself is unable to comprehend it. So it requires the 3 Ancients to give their own being to sustain it. Like, Chattur'ga allows it gain a physical form, Xel'lotath allows it to comprehend its own existance, and Ulyaoth allows it to use its Magick. And Mantarok would be the "rubber band" holding it together.

  • @moseslmpg

    @GhostDoggSamurai
    I always loved that line myself. It was delivered with the perfect mix of arrogance and apparent boredom that you would expect from an ancient entity reluctantly depending on a human to carry out their plans. That's probably why he is my favorite Ancient.

      The fun part is in the legacy of Kain series ( which was also started by silicon knights) he voices Moebius the time-streamer: an important & prominent villain that also served an unearthly entity in its machinations. But unlike Pious, Moebius had never actually seen his “benevolent god”, nor had the ability to do so.... until a certain spirit & a certain sword “clears things up” for him

  • @CinnabonChan

    It's funny, because Xel'otath is the only one who seems somewhat appreciative to him. When she's not arguing with herself over whether or not he's a traitor that is. Poor Pious, he never knows where he stands with her.

    Very interesting dialouge. Even though Chattur'gha supposed to be the least intelligent, his speech is still very formal. He seems more intelligent than people who comment give him credit for, since when Pious said there was a flaw in the plan he already knew what Pious was thinking off.
    Still, Ulyaoth and Xel'lotoath are more formal. Ulyaoth especially.

    • @charles9489
      @charles9489 2 года назад +2

    it just occurred to me...Chattur'gha's the only one who is aware of the protagonists in the game, or the only one who mentions it, when he says "Mantorok has employed others to defend it."

    • @Spiralpaladin
      @Spiralpaladin Год назад +1

      Ulyaoth probably knows but doesn't care because of how arrogant he is. Likely to the point of thinking that the protagonists can't really do anything to make a difference, so he thinks, "why bother being concerned by something so meaningless?" Xel'otath is either too consumed by paranoia to truly notice, or she DOES notice but said paranoia prevents her from trusting Pious with that knowledge.

  • @moseslmpg
    @moseslmpg  15 лет назад

    Well, formality is not concomitant with intelligence, so the way he speaks is irrelevant except to convey a sense of majesty and awe. That said, I think the point is that the Ancients are just totally beyond human intelligence and knowledge anyway. It is just that Chatty emphasis raw physical power, Xelly focuses on the mind, and Uly, on the planes of existence. If anyone is intelligent, it is Xel'lotath.
