The Lore of Cultist Simulator (Part 3): The Hours

It has been a long time coming, this third CS video of mine, but even still I think I chose a good day for it to go live on.
I would like to make a special thanks to Blueberry ( / @blueberrywolf ) who helped me a great deal with my getting my audio to the point its at here today.
Yes, this is a reupload, I got some useful advice, and I figured that I might as well while the video is still fresh.

    CS does something I really enjoy in more urban fantasy stories: not all of the gods are extremely ancient. Of course there are “x god was just born” a fair bit, but I find it interesting when there are god where they’re like “yeah about 80 years ago blah blah blah ascended”. Like recent in cosmic scale but still old in human terms. Also, I fucking love when gods are killed but in a way that is like ontologically satisfying. Like, as you said, the Tide was usurped by Grail, but the specific wording is fantastic. The tide was liquid, and the grail is an hour of thirst. Grail probably literally actually drank an old god.

    My favorite bad reviews of cultist simulator are ones that claim the game offers no instruction or clues. There are literally clues everywhere, on every card, in almost every bit of text. Its what makes the game so good! My advice to anyone struggling with cultist simulator is to not just learn how to read, but also comprehend.

    My understanding was that the Flowermaker, was born out of the intercalate. That’s why I included him there, which might not have made for the best taxonomy. The Wolf Divided, however, is more a God-From-Blood than a god from light so I didn’t. I have a plan to someday remake all the CSLORE vids with better audio and I’ll probably move things around in that one, especially when we know more from BoH, which I’m fully expecting will make a lot of my things defunct anyway.
