@@mickethegoblin7167 okay so I went down the rabbit hole about this a few months ago and don't remember much... I don't know if it affects anything in game, but the bird and worm thing was an ARG(basically a kind of secret mystery puzzle solving clue seeking event), people dug through the game code or something or other i forget but they ended up solving a riddle or something i forget... Mainly, I think It ended up leading to a series of emails which sent you riddles which you solved which eventually led to other emails and riddles? The email addresses changed slightly and the messages they sent you changed slightly based on if you started th ARG as the bird or the worm. The "bird" and "worm" themselves seemed to be different... philosophies? Ideologies? Sects/organizations/cults? The cryptic messages were kind of forwarding their viewpoints of the mystical otherworld you interact with in the game, their opinions of what it means or what to do. It made for a neat read, and if you're really interested I could pretty easily find what I think was a blog post that played the historian, cataloging and explaining every step of the ARG from both bird and worm perspectives in a well organized manner.

@@Trickyboy1337 If it refers to the worms in the game, it's a sort of curse/creatures. Spoilers ahead, if you want to play the game I suggest not reading it. Ok so in the Mansus (the place your character goes when he dreams, it's like Olympia but for eldritch gods, althought it might not have always been this way), there is a place called the worm museum. In it you find killed worms, emprisonned here so they can not cause harm to the Hours (the gods/aspect of the gods). Not much is said other than the 3 Worm Wars which they apparently caused (the devs confirmed that fact that those use the same initials as World War is intentionnal). But when you send your cult to explore some late game sanctuaries, you have a risk that one of your companion will be infected by a worm. From what I remember, the worm eats away the victim, body and mind, transforming it into a pile of papery-ash (but is also implied to influence humans despite not doing it here?), nothing remains other than that. I haven't find anything else about them, but I have found other stories which says that the events happening in the Mansus echoes in the real world in an altered form (or the other way around). So my theory is that the Worms were one of the many powers trying to take controm of the Mansus, or to destroy humanity, and to achieve this goal they went at war with the Hours. The Worm-Museum was created to store away worms that were defeated, it is guarded by the Colonnel (an hour of the edge aspect, he's an old roman centurion who became an hour by conquering the Mansus from the Gods-who-were-Stone for the Gods-who-were-flesh). Those events should reflect into the world as WW1 and WW2, but the game happens in the 1800s. So either they didn't happen, either they happened in the precedent "version" of the world (yes they are more than one version, one happening after the precedent one ended). The rabbit hole goes much deeper, but I already spent too much time writing on my phone, I got things to do boys, so I suggest you check out the rest of the lore by yourself, it's all in the game.

@@Sir_Bucket the severing of the seven coiled happened around the same era as when large scale wars were first created, some time after the flint was shattered by the forge and the egg unhatched (ignorance) became replaced by the radiant glory of the sun (Human knowledge, splendour) and the watchman who inherited the egg . These worms are after the events of the usurpation of the God from stone. They feed on the corpses of dead... Gods. Gods from 'nowhere', the opposite of the glory. The largest feeding ground of the current worms however are ironically the lord of the glory, formerly anyway, the sun in splendour who was intercalate following the war between the flaming princes, the sisterhood and.. one other faction I can't currently recall. The grail loved the sun as did the forge, but both ended up fearing their unity with it for the danger that is the crime of the sky. And now... the breeding of the worms in the sun's corpse is primed for a war unprecedented, a 3rd worm war which might erase the fifth history entirely and cause a new one to begin

As an early player of Cultist Simulator, you have no idea what a godsend it is that the cards now sorta snap to a grid. You used to have to arrange them manually and if they were just slightly too close to one another your whole organized grid would move and get messed up. Or if a verb finished ticking down and you just auto loot the rewards, they might hide under other cards or push them away.

Failbetter Games is quietly becoming one of my favorite indie game developers.

Five years later, having dived into both Cultist Simulator and Book of Hours, I FINALLY know what the Bird and Worm slider means! So basically, there is the Mansus and the Histories. The Mansus is sort of like a Dreamlands, though it'd probably be better described as Plato's conception of Reality (as described in the Allegory of the cave), with the Wake and Histories (or various waking worlds) being its shadows, which humanity dwells within _mostly_ blindly. The Mansus is also the House of the Sun. Above the Mansus, there is the Glory - which is Eternity and the font of Reason. The Mansus is governed by the Hours, which govern the fundament of reality, though they themselves are beholden to some laws as well. All things naturally reach an ending - whether it become eternal by ascending to the Glory, to pass on and be written into History, or to be forgotten and fall into Nowhere. In Transmundane society, there are two general sentiments to this whole shebang. There are the Birds - who are in favor of Eternity and the structured rule of the Hours - and the Worms - who are in favor of History, human dominance, and the downfall of the Hours. It's noted by some rather opinionated scholars that it's hard not to be a Bird when one has become a Long (as the ambitious and respectable usually become), as living forever makes one predisposed to the supremacy of Eternity. Also, it's kind of in the name - Birds do eat Worms, after all. Still, one of the most prominent transmundane scholars I've seen in my studies - Julian Cosely - is a Worm, so it's not exactly a dead movement.

Oh, and I would also dispute the two Secret Histories games being Lovecraftian at all. Cultist Simulator APPEARS to be at first, but once you begin to comprehend what you're reading, you realize that it's almost diametrically opposed to the themes of Lovecraft's works! Which is a bit fitting, considering that you aren't some mundane rube with no knowledge of the occult, but a full-on eldritch scholar.

“Oh no” seems to be the embodiment of this game.

11:44 Trying to open a portal to hell, so I don't have to go to work Monday.

13:45 God I forgot how much I love the Pathologic soundtrack.

A Shammy AND Lord Mandalore video?!?! Is it christmas already?!

thanks for this one, i was looking at picking this up a while ago when i found out sunless skies was still in alpha. i love the direction the people behind sunless sea take with their games

Mandy, I don’t think you understand how much I LIVE for that home alone electrocution sound effect. KEEP IT UP!

This reminds me a lot of a mobile game called Underhand. It’s a much simpler card game with a very similar premise, you’re a cult leader trying to manage resources with the ultimate goal of summoning a dark god.

I find it illuminating someone enjoyed this where I didn't. I never realized dialogue changed because the early game became such a grind for me to make sure everything is setup for later. I ended up in a cycle of getting enough money and everything at the very beginning that I put off the cult stuff until I'd developed my stats, developed a very large reserve, examined every book you can get without doing expeditions, and recruited every follower. It was interesting for a while but the setup for the grind of the late game made me stop caring about the lore because I was doing the same things in long cycles. Even the exploration cards weren't that interesting once I had 3 summons and just used followers to top off what was needed. Throw on the constant need to pause to exploit the timer trick (cards in a verb have their timer paused) and you get something that feels like more work than a game but I'm glad you've enjoyed it.

I extremely love the ritual bit you set up with the star and the candles

Thank you for making this video dude. I've been interested in trying this game but haven't pulled the trigger in buying it.

Good review. Made me glad I subbed to you a month ago.

Such dreams as you mention are the dreams of pristine madness. Do you know who else sleeps an unholy sleep? Dead Cthulhu, that's who. CTHULHU FHTAGN! IÄ CTHULHU! Phnglui mglnaf cthulhu rlyeh wganagl fhtagn...

I look forward to your videos every month. Thanks for another great one!

Your reviews are great and I enjoy watching them.

I don’t care about the contents I am just happy we have you mandy

" you're working overtime, then you start talking to the wierd guy near the bridge, just like in real life" what is happening!!!

I love when you put in Gachi sounds in the video, it always makes me smile :) good work

An upload from you, shammy and the pst podcast on the same day?! You guys are making me so happy right now! :D

Watching this video reminds me of Underhand due to its similar concept

Great book! 11/10 would recommend

"Where is the cursed object?" Limbo of the Lost DVD case "Oh there it is" Fucking hell

I'm so happy that you've covered, I really like your videos man.

11:41 "Hey, yo, yo, yo. What happened to the next part of the dance?"

"There is no future for us. Perhaps not even apart, but definitely not together." @.@

Every new review from Mandalore is a treat.

i just love how you put the videogame ost's that no one seems to care of my childhood in your videos, i wanna hug you right now, no one knows how much those songs were special for me.

4:55 For those not up on their Lovecraft minutia he was a militant cat person and owned a black cat named [anglicized Spanish term for a person of african descent]-man. Yup his cat was named N████-man. While shortly before his death from bowel cancer Lovecraft wrote several letters about how stupid he had been most of his life and trying to make amends that doesn't really dispel the fact he spent the greater part of his life being the kind of racist other racists s-l-o-w-l-y back away from. At least he was active in the womens suffrage (right to vote) movement, that's even how he met his wife. P.S. Though given his stance on cats vs dogs the name could almost be seen as a positive, or like he REALLY disliked dogs.

This game is so good, and the follow up *Book of hours* is just as good

Did not know there was a sequel. Thanks for the heads up.

Damn you! I watched your review and now I am addicted to this game.

This will be the first video of yours I've not watched all the way through because I don't want any more spoilers; pseudo- or otherwise. You've sold me. I'll rewatch once I've played for hours.

Dude, thanks for this game. First sunless sea, now this. I was giving up the idea that games could be an art, but those games bring me some hope for the brighter future of the gaming industry. Thank you. Thank you very much.

@K19 But cmon, dude, there is literally 90%+ of the market filled with garbage. You can find a diamond in the rough, sure, but looking at this pile of garbage may be depressing sometimes.

Congrats on the release. Looking forward to watching this. Praise Mandalore; Cracker Barrel Connoisseurus.

so when can we anticipate the rise of the Mandalore Cult

LOL the Scooby Doo movie chant

New mic? The audio quality seems much better than before.Great video! Thanks for showcasing this!

Loved the Dark Corners bits. (: Maybe I'll give Cultist Simulator another try.

Jesus Christ, i never even realized I was playing on a table lol!
