I finished the demon shaft 3 times. I've always been a post game grind monster so I beat it after my brother beat the main game when we were kids. I remember being so amazed by the black knight pendragon as a child. I beat the entire game twice again as an adult. It's really fun to go through this dungeon honestly. Love this video man!

Another wonderful video for the compendium! You described my experience accidentally finding the beta design of the Chronicle Sword perfectly. I think not knowing every detail about the lore of Dark Cloud provides a sense of desire to make your own assumptions and come up with your own theories. This is why I love the Dark Cloud series so much! No two playthroughs are exactly the same, for gameplay or story and lore. Keep up the amazing content HiddenCastle!

I can definitely hear the similarities between Pendragon and the Battle theme in between the two. However, there have been enough changes that I feel it's distinctive enough. One was probably a beta version of the other. Of which one was which we don't know. Pendragon's theme could've been the earlier version or it could've been the refined version. It definitely matches though since it sounds very medieval fantasy with the stringy instruments which is what Pendragon is modeles after. As for whether I've completed the Demon Shaft... I think I've only ever completed it... ONCE. And that was only a few years ago. I never even got to the end of Dark Cloud until I got a full copy of the game towards the end of my teenage years.

@@DarkCloudCompendium really awesome. I liked the beta image of the demon shaft level leaver. They definitely were intially basing that design on a more traditional structure of the previous dungeons. But the platforms we got in the end were best. Gave more of an ethereal vibe of the tower. It didn't feel threatening, but definitely eerie. Aga was either killed by Pendragon and the Chronicle 2 was his sword. Or he was corrupted and became Pendragon. The question I have is... how does Steve know this? What's his backstory? What was his life before he became a slingshot? Also I don't know how I missed the fact that a lot of the Dark Chronicle new monsters all appear in this level albeit under different names for a lot of them (although I think the bomber and the boulder monster are from other dungeons in Dark Cloud). And you saying that demon shaft is like a bridge to these two games! Oh that is so perfect to put for my essay when talking about reading these two as literature!

So it's been a bit since I watched one of your videos, this one was good. Honestly that image of the Beta version Demon Shaft gives me some serious Elder Scrolls: Arena vibes, specifically with how that game had some really cool fantasy art every time you entered a major plot important dungeon that would depict what the outside of the dungeon you're entering is supposed to look like, that Demon Shaft Beta image gave off a very similar energy.

WOW this was so much to take in! I agree the demon shaft is the one most peculiar and unique dungeon of the series, it was so out place, the one that is VERY different. I want to agree with you that Black Night Pendragon Toan's Father, Aga! But its an inference! Although, Aga seems to be a sword gift giver! First experience of Aga is a gift of a sword, the sun sword, right? Aga made Gosuke to give to You. Now that when you beat the black knight, another sword is given to you. 🤔🤔🤔 😯 You got my gears in my head turning... Do you know what exactly steve said about Toan "knowing" Black Knight?? Also a side note, i made it to floor 10 ish in the demon shaft, ever. I stopped as it was kinda repetitive, as we know, one HUNDRED floors😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫, but with these Aga backstory inferences...seems that I might go back and fullfil this new head cannon!

I feel like maybe he knows more than he's letting on.... 🤔 What did you think of all the NEW Beta content discovered, do you prefer the old or redesigned Chronicle Swords? 👀🌟

It still makes me gasp that the Pendragon battle theme is Dark Cloud 2's beta battle theme. I guess the beta theme really sounded more of as a boss theme so they gave it to him and made a completely new and fresh one for DC2. I still get an uneasy feeling from that tower. 100 whole floors of nothing but death awaiting anyone who dares to steps in it. And if Aga truly surpassed every challenge that got in his way, what happened at the top? Was it the Dark Genie who made him evil? Was it the Pendragon itself as a punishment for losing against that creature? Or was it the Chronicle 2 sword itself, filling him with darkness as he touched that cursed sword that has been in that tower for thousands and thousands of years? Take a look at the colors of both of the swords. Chronicle has a light green color, usually indicating the good while Chronicle 2's color is reddish-orange indicating evil. Perhaps 2 warriors fought on the top of that same tower. The warrior with the Chronicle being the victorious one sealed Chronicle 2 in that tower so its power could never fall to the wrong hands again. Fast foward years later and Aga came across to that sword. Touching it immediately made the soul of the sword take him over. A few years later and Toan got his hands on the Atlamillia, he was given the power to wield the Chronicle sword (notice how its evolution comes after the Atlamillia sword) indicating that something has gone wrong in the tower. Anyway, great video as always Hiddencastle!

Hey Liam happy to answer your questions! 1: There's no evidence of any deleted scenes prior to the main intro, although there are several scenes in the debug menu in each village, about 5 or 6 scenes that go unused that were most likely scrapped for time constraints As of now there are no other textures that I have depicting beta dungeons, the Demon Shaft texture I had for 4 years before this video!

That's a good question and one that I can't answer unfortunately. When you boot up those scenes in the debug menu the game crashes, meaning that Level 5 deleted those scenes prior to the game's release. If we maybe had an earlier build it might give us clues but as of now there really isn't anything aside from the number of scenes that crash the game due to Level 5 deleting the data associated with them :)

@@DarkCloudCompendium I never got round to that one and then later it seemed to become very rare. - In fact I might not have initially known the two games were even related due to the name change and the different style of graphics.

DUDDEE YESSSSS! Another Dark Cloud fan, this series doesn't get enough appreciation! Have you checked out the Dark Cloud Iceberg series yet? I did one for Dark Cloud, Dark Chronicle and Dark Cloud 3 each are 1 hour long and full of never before seen trivia! Perfect for letting the work day pass! kzbin.info/aero/PLzd-8lplivk_89-N4ecdaHstRlUySucTI

Something bugging me is why Dark Gennie Seda spared Toan when Toan risking his life to protect Xiao, and he even gives Toan changing potion to let Xiao becomes Toan first allied, it feels like Dark Gennie want Toan kept Xiao like somekind of his plan

Hi there. I was just wandering so u think it's possible to help more fans have access to the enhanced mod? For example the people who don't have pc or people who can't run pcsx2? When pondering on the topic I could think of 2 things. 1. Couldn't u use aethersx2 as it used pcsx2 as a basis for its app. 2.could u "hypothetically" on in the mod then burn the disc to an ISO and have that iso with the enhanced mod. I'm pretty sure 1 wouldn't work because u need pcsx2 percifically to play the mod and I thought 2 wouldn't work because u need the mod then unning in the background to play it. So do u want hink there's a way to get around some of these things and if so would u see your self trying to research how to do something like it. Also please i need a playthrough of dark cloud enhanced mod. Even if it was a vid a month so that it serves as a "break month".

With the dark cloud enhanced mode right now the only way to play it is on PCSX2 there isn't any plans to bring the mod to any other platforms yet due to how the program works, it needs PCSX2 to function We're working on getting it open source, hopefully when that happens it will open the doors for future ports of our mod programs:)

I think there's a good reason behind it when you look at the Dark Genie character, he's pure evil and deliberately spared some people to suffer alone, the Mayor was a leader now with no people to lead, Ungaga was a warrior with no one left to defend
