Some translation observations in no particular order: The "Fusang" is a mythological tree, but it's also the name of hibiscus. That's probably why the apemen wear large red flowers. Eigong is more accurately "Yi Gong". I guess they went with that translation so people didn't think her and Yi are related? Lear is the strangest change, his original name is Li Er, aka Lao Tzu, the founder of Taoism. Tianhuo doesn't feel like what the gene will be initially named as, since it means "heavenly disaster". That name probably started with the disease. The outline of the plot is a reference to the myth of Hou Yi, who shot down 9 suns out of 10 from the sky Many other characters are based on Chinese myth, like Shen Nong (who tested herbs on himself), Chi You, Nu Wa, Fu Xi, etc

Xuan xuan's pen name Xuan Yuan is name of an ancient emperor from the mythological era of ancient China Yan Lao is actually reference to Yan Luo, which like the ruler of Hell in Chinese mythology Heng (Yi's sister) is the goddess of the moon which more commonly known as Chang E (嫦娥) (That e is pronouns in a weird way like a Uh sound)

Every Sol in this game at some point has completly blinded themselves in their own ideas, and the most intresting to me is Jiequan He's family lives by phrase "Heroes are forged in agony", and so Jiequan is obsessed with idea of causing himself and others pain and suffering. What he doesn't realise, is the second part of this phrase "Heroes ARE forged in agony... but they do it to protect others from the same fate" Thanks to stories of Spider-Man or Batman we know about it, yet Jiequan completly twisted it's meaning into extremly crazy and wrong one. Same goes for many other Sols, Yi included

IMO - Eigong lost her sanity, in endless tries to find out the ways to gain immortality and subsequently the cure, and I think in the first place she was not trying to find immortality for solarians out of her own ideal but rather because of pressure from then ones who financed her research institution (how in one of the memory recordings she is afraid that financing will be pulled out) Overall she represents the worst in the story, truly evil individual with too much power

Great video, but I think you got some stuff wrong on the timeline. I got the impression that Yiis miraculous resurrection was what inspired Engong to research the roots. So the virus outbreak happened later. Also, the reason Yii didn't come for Heng was because he was knocked out by Engong before new Kunluns lift of.
@TheLorebrarians
@TheLorebrarians Ай бұрын
Eigong's logs have dates attached to them. I may have mixed up some of the entries, but I had the impression she had an interest in Fusang even before she observed Yi or Kanghui. As for Heng, you are absolutely right which makes Yi's character even more tragic.

I went and double-checked, the virus outbreak predates Eigong meeting Yi by 5-10 years. The first logs referencing Tianhou are in Year 444 (when the original "breakthrough" happens) to 446 (first appearance of "Tianhuo Virus" in the logs by name); the logs of Eigong meeting Yi are in the year 452.

As well as the hologram about Lear's decleration of inaction where Ji is always only visible for short moments, hidden behind the speech bubbles. There was a lot of show, don't tell in general with the backgrounds.

I am absolute enamored with the deeper lore of this game, and this video did an admirable job of putting it down on an understandable timeline. However, certain parts of the story stuck out to me strangely. For one, in the true ending, I find it weird (and funny) that no one addressed how Kuafu is still alive, the last Solarian, and he's still infected. How long did he have left on the Pale Blue Planet, without the Solarian tech to sustain him? Could the new environment miraculously cure him? Ji's philosophy was weird to me. I get being weary of an eternal life and wanting to go off with a bang, but he undeniably contributed to making things worse. Wish he instead decided to fight the flow of fate and try to assist Yi in finding a cure, or at least preserve the memory of millenia he'd seen. The game really paints the Taoist Heng's ideology as the correct one, and what brings peace of mind by accepting the natural order. Except... explicitly, Tianhuo is not natural. It was manmade, by Eigong's hands. Even if it was a naturally occurring illness, that's like saying "covid is just a natural and inevitable thing, so don't fight it. Give up on the cure, just accept you'll be infected and will die." I'd like to give the writers credit if this is also meant to be another example of no ideology being universally true, that even the Taoist conclusion was made in ignorance (of Tianhuo's origins), therefore the cycle of science versus spirituality continues. But I don't know if it's just me. Lastly, the dialogue referencing the confrontation between Yi and Eigong leading up to the start of the game is confusing to me. The way Yi said Eigong wronged his family personally felt... off. As well as what Eigong meant when she said all the other Sols agreed with her. If it was the revelation that she created Tianhuo, what did the Sols agree to? How did they all betray him or why did they keep him in the dark, as another line revealed? There's some discussion regarding this important plot moment and it's strange how it wasn't made more explicit. Anyway, enough of my rambling. Amazing game, I expected no less from Red Candle and was still surprised they delivered on their first action game.
@alexandraaveryanova8325
@alexandraaveryanova8325 Ай бұрын
It seemed so weird to me that the main reason behind the confrontation between Yi and Eigong turned out to be her being the one who created the virus. Of course Yi would hate her for this but as a man of reason he must've understand that Eigong's participance is essential for the whole project. She is your most brilliant scientist, who else has the best chance to find the cure if not her? It just seems strange to me that Yi would doom all solarians just to take revenge, especially when his whole modus operandi is "put logic above emotions". I always thought that the reason behind the conflict was Eigong coming up with some plan or decision that Yi strictly dissaproved, but it seems that he was unaware of her turning dusk guardians into lab rats or experimenting with Ji's genes. I don't know, maybe I've missed something, but the ultimate explanation of the game's main conflict kind of confused me. I also agree that the main message of accepting mortality crosses the line sometimes. Like yes, death is inevitable and we all have to come to terms with it, but that scene with Heng standing amongst piles of corpses saying that it looks beautiful and they should all accept the end like this is a bit too much in my opinion. It comes to the point when Heng stops being that eccentric wise girl and starts to look like an insane and dangerous fanatic who you're still supposed to view as the only sane person for some reason. It also doesn't help that tianhuo virus turned out to be a result of scientific _mistake_ and not the natural outcome of searching for immortality. Again, maybe the problem is in me, but because of the that the main message started to look a bit forced and unconvincing towards the end of the game.

imo it doesnt matter what the origin of the virus is once it was created and turned into a worldwide pandemic, a person really has only two options on how to deal with it, accept it or try to fight it also the comparison with covid doesnt apply here since covid was very curable and just needed some caution to overcome while the tianhuo virus is literally inevitable for each and every solarion since they all carry the tianhou gene. The tianhou virus is just too powerful to overcome and trying to overcome is what drives you to madness like what happened to eigong hence why accepting it is simply the more peaceful option

He won't be able to reproduce alone in earth and probably will still die of old age or the virus. My headcannon is that he uses his remaining years to help the new human colonies and becomes remembered, together with Yi, in a human pantheon of myths and legends. Also, it seems Yi is based on a mythology character "Huo Yi". He was a magical archer who shot down 9 out of the 10 original suns in our sky, because they were scorching the planet. So maybe we got to play the origin of this story? :)

Watching the true ending I ended thinking in a short comic. Be careful with spoilers Frame 1, 2 and 3 Someone is in the verge of death lying on a bed in his last moments, he is surronded by his family and friends and giving his last words he dies in peace. Them everything turns black(There is a cat in the background that looks like Yi ) Frame 3 and 4 Them he wakes up, the old man is walking with his walking cane on a path in a white flower field. Frame 5, 6 and 7 Slowly he continues to walk, and he remenbers wat was the last thing he writed in his diary, it was like a letter for someone from long ago. The old man start reading the letter that tells how was his life after landing in the pale blue planet and what he's been doing and how he helped the people arond him until his inevitable death of old age and his return to Tao. Frame 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 He starts talking about the time when he was a kid, and he tells how it was when Kuafu passed away because of the Tianhuo virus, then Shennong a couple of years later of old age, and he asks how is everyone doing while waiting him since he is the last person who is missing, the last person who originally came from space, at this moment the old man begins to get younger and younger. Frame 13 Then it's revealed that the old man is Shuanshuan and he is on his path to the afterlife, the wind blows and shakes his hair while he is looking for something far away while he continues with his letter telling that he lived a long life like he said when he was a kid. Frame 14 and 15 He is a little younger now and can walk without his walking cane. After realizing that he doen't need a walking cane anymore Shuanshuan starts running. Frame 16, 17 and 18 It's hard in the beginning but step by step it's getting easier, and he seens to be saying something, calling for someone while he reads the letter telling what he wants to do afther see everyone again afther so much time. Frame 19, 20 and 21 Someone who is holding a green pipe blowing green smoke can be seen by distance, he is talking with his sister and Shuanshuan parents alongside Kuafu, Shennong, Chiyou and abacus who are a little drunk. Frame 22, 23 and 24 From far away Yi can hear "YI!!" and "BIG BROTHER!!". Kuafu then calls Yi, he points to Shuanshuan announcing his arrival and comments about how old Shuanshuan is. (I dont know, let's put that he lived for almost 120 years) Frame 25 Shuanshuan can see that Yi is with his family and the friends he met during his journey and they all were waiting for Shuanshuan to start a banquet to welcome him (Chien and Shanhai 9000 are there too). Frame 26 and 27 Shuanshuan still running, and step by step until he turns into a child again, even exausted he wont stop running. Frame 28, 29, 30, 31, 32 and 33 They are happy to see each other again, Everyone is having fun. the camera gets more distant and they desapear as they are turning into smoke and returning to the nothingness. THE END Now I don't know what each one could do in the last painels, so lets leave this to your imagination I'm not a native english speaker, so if there is an error with my wrigting let me know I hope someone with artistc skills will see this comment What do you think of this concept idea? is it good?

Assuming they're "supposed" to just die. When it was basically just her dumb hubris and delusion of immortality that doomed them. Just don't do stupid stuff and none of this would've happened.

wait. is penglai a whole planet/spaceship like new kunlun or is it a continent because there are different regions and kingdom? ex: xia, jie, ying

IMHO, Penglai is a planet. Xia, Jie, Ying are different regions/kingdoms on Penglai. Kunlun was an island on Penglai. Then they built a spaceship that lift the entire Kunlun island up to the space. they call it the New-Kunlun.

since i don't know who Chien is, in the game when I found her and Shanhai it really wasn't that sad. Then in the first two page of the manga, seeing their relationship I immediately teared up😥

Yes, it's quite tragic and a story I wish got more attention in the game. It was easy to miss

I was very hurt by the true ending and specially how both side stories of Shanghai 9000 and Chiyo ended, it completely ruined the game for me :(

I would like to mention, Rain World kinda has the ideas of some religion (I think it’s Buddhism, but i can’t remember if it’s true.). The idea of escape from a cycle of life and death sounds very much like one of those eastern religions. Also yes, this is kinda me suggesting rain world, BUT I CAN’T HELP IT, OK? Hyperfixations go brr. Edit: why are games with eastern religion esc themes so INTERESTING

Lear is great. He converted after witnessing the change happening within his three top followers the three sages. How they became engrossed with power and expansion being never satisfied and willing to do anything to reach satisfation. Lear kills them before they can go too far and converts to spirituality to promote individual improvement of the self. He doesnt ban science or any of the quality of life tech that had been created. He made it free for all. It was the people blindly following his footsteps that eschewed technology this caused dissatisfaction and strife as people were left without for no reason.

Man I can't help but to make the comparison. To Dark Souls 1 and how Gwen of salt to maintain his age of gold . Even go so far as to burn himself. To maintain the so-called age of the Gods. Thereby creating a very anomalies. Known as Halloween. But in the end. (The Hereafter claims all).

It isn't good enough to be technologically advanced. You need to also be spiritually advanced and emotionally mature. The Solarians kept prioritizing one over the other which lead them to be vulnerable to corruption and delusion.
