Void Stranger Lore: Void Lord Names

[@CrappyBlue]

loved the entire ending bit. you're thinking about things in the middle of your playthrough that most players skipped over while playing. it's super cool to see :3

[@paetroalexius9299]

you can definitely make the connections you are thinking about if you keep digging

[@ShadoUrufu666]

The explanation for Eus just being.. 'boing' is enough said XD Although Tails does mention something about it when Lillie visits her.

[@trashcanonhead]

insane work as always, I missed a few parts of this personally, I hadn't actually thought about why Cif had those dashes before and after her name especially lmfao

[@yurisonovab3892]

The crest of the kingdom on the king's cape being the flower from the stain glass window. The window representing the merger of the king(earth/flower) with the queen(star/heaven).

[@lorgon111]

Good observation, alongside your previous clarification about what rests atop the queen's grave; I'll use this info in a future video :)

[@yurisonovab3892]

@@lorgon111 Here's another one. The result of the Tower of Babel is that the people of earth become unable to understand each other and speak different languages. Gray tell Lillie this story using a tome written in a forgotten language.

[@philershadi6037]

Bee and Cif's names have a couple of other parallels; they remind me a little of pilot B and pilot C in ZeroRanger, but they're fairly close to women's names in the part of the world the developers are from, with Bea meaning "bringer of joy" and Sif meaning "bride" or (more appropriately) "kinship." This might have been a coincidence.

Thank you for making these

[@GooseTheSorcerer]

That speculation about ADD at the end… you clever bastard you. 🤫

[@sethtriggs]

This is really great, I love this deep dive into the lore. Really amazing what you're discovering about this game. I hope this game gets some awards! The Eus explanation made me laugh so much.

This make 2 games i played deal with Dante inferno (Limbus Company)

1:44 "What." LMAO perfect

[@lloydgyan]

Just saying, It has been a pleasure playing the game alongside your lore videos

[@AbbyV109]

Awesome video! Love the editing

[@catgckool428]

If you are looking for a bit of comedy and potential lore, if you try to cheat by editing your save file, you will be taken to the Void Court. Lawyer Bee is just great!

[@pihungliu35]

Brian triggered the court twice in ep 23. Those are indeed some funny moments.

[@SiberCatLP]

I tried that, and nothing happened. When I was playing as Cif. Which means the Void Court was closed. Regrets!

[@ertchin]

Good stuff! More to ponder (if future Brian hasn't already done so): 1) What are some of the implications of the creation and subsequent lives of the Void Lords, in terms of the characters? 2) *Why* can the Void Lords only remember 3 letters of each of their names? (This is something I personally speculated, which means it may not be correct, but I think it's neat.)

[@fluffy_tail4365]

that ending about abbaddon :)

[@EliottAdkins]

I really enjoy your gameplay videos, but these lore videos interspersed is excellent additional content

[@AshnSilvercorp]

I got somewhere through the game that this is basically space hell. That being said, that makes Ultrakill and Void Stranger on the same level with story and lore basis. That's really neat. Now only if I could wish there would be more things to derive stories like this from...

[@OmegaVideoGameGod]

Very nice man I’m in works too of explaining everything too.

[@ZappaSlave]

More LORRRREEEEE!

[@expchrist]

Nice!

[@Beanybag2]

Prediction at 2 minutes. Cif's name is luCIFer

[@Beanybag2]

Hell ya

@@Beanybag2 Yeah, the moment 'my little lightbringer' hit the screen was pretty clear

No guess on dis fullname?

Devanam Indra Sakra, basically means it’s the ruler of the heavens.

[@yurisonovab3892]

@@OmegaVideoGameGod Not arguing against, but that would be a significant departure from the theme so far.

[@OmegaVideoGameGod]

Well it’s still pretty cool, I swear to god every time I hear this theme it reminds me of rock man x5 and x6@@yurisonovab3892

[@yurisonovab3892]

@@OmegaVideoGameGod Dis Pater is more probable, as it is the origin of the City of Dis' name from the Divine Comedy.

[@yurisonovab3892]

According to wikipedia, Dis Pater was conflated with Orcus who is the 'punisher of broken oaths' which fits with the theme of the 9th layer of hell.

[@HarmonicVector]

What ZeroRanger did with Buddhist ideology, Void Stranger does with Christian literature and comedy. The continuity SE is building is literally on a biblical proportion. May you attain enlightenment.

[@Drambrarcer]

Which video of yours do you explore the room that entering the player's own brand takes you to? I think it pretty clearly explains where Gray's own reproductive system went. Also, if you make Gray try to punch the machine too many times, Add appears and disconnects you from DIS. The machine says many of the same things that the void eggs do, possibly implying that it's what produced them? Though if that's a continuous process for new souls entering, I'm not sure why the womb tank is shattered. Other possibilities for what came from it are Gray herself or the Void Staff, either or both of which Add may have reformed their essence into. Also notable is Lev and Cif statues together make it impossible to properly descend the stairs from the room. Even though you can walk onto the UI here, there's no way to move the northern Cif statue out of the way to keep the stairs from resetting your progress.
