  [MUSIC: Greenhouse]  ♀: It's done. ♀: Well, shall we tune in on god? ♆: Whatever. ♀: We could also try calling the captain again... ♃: Hmm, yeah, we could—  ♆: Calling will absolutely make everything worse, it always does. ♆: If there was any chance the devil wouldn't come, god will ruin it. But who cares. Of course the devil is coming tonight. ♆: So do it.We arrange our radios in a circle. We all hold on to a length of copper wire. We feel like we're part of a christmas display. We pray. ♆: We don't really need to pray to it. ♀: Sorry. I'm just so used to it. I start hearing it in my head, as soon as we start, every time. ♃: Right? It just pops in my head. ♆: *sigh* Same, it's fine. I'm just saying.We hold hands. We're looking for the signal. We can tell the difference between god and the devil; finding god is pretty easy. He's 109.8 FM. The devil is never on the same frequency, but you sometimes hear a bit of him by accident when you're changing channels. By the time we find god he's already talking. He never says "for those just listening." He expects attentiveness.  God sounds like every boy you are afraid of talking at once. GOD: —the fist which can give takes too, and gives by taking, or takes by giving. Just as a word is honest or dishonest not by how it is spoken, but by he who speaks it, so is the honesty of touch—   ♃: Shh, let's listen. ♆: Whatever.GOD: —each of you shall choose. It is certain that the devil is coming.  ♀: Oh no.GOD: It is certain. ♆: I told you.GOD: It is absolutely certain the devil is already here.  ♃: ...GOD: Parables I:I "The devil is only the shadow of man cast from the light of god." There is definitely no parables chapter in the Bible, though this saying itself might be real, in some form or another? It could refer to Plato's cave allegory, but other than that I don't know, sorry. GOD: The meaning of this parable is that there is no devil. GOD: The weather is scheduled for 100 with humidity tomorrow. And now for the news—  [SFX: The radio turns off.]Jupiter shuts off the radio.  ♀: We should have called the captain. ♆: What would he have done, even. ♀: Something else? ♀: It's okay, it's not the end of the world, it's not like being the devil means you're going to die. The devil just happens— ♆: Don't pity me. ♃: It'll be the end of something. ♀: It's me.

Flac posted:God sounds like every boy you are afraid of talking at once. This is probably one of my favorite scenes in the game. The portrayal of God not as a comforting presence but as an ominous, oppressive, almost alien force that's always there, just watching you, gives me the willies every time. and then he turns out to be an actual radio DJ (maybe??) and i don't know what the gently caress Kelsing fucked around with this message at 00:53 on Feb 13, 2016 |

So they... become the devil? The devil was one of them all along? Or at least one of them will. Neptune seems pretty confident that it will be her. Also this God is weird even by the standards of divinities.

i hope the endings aren't paced out too wide, they really need to be experienced roughly in one piece imo

Okay nerdlings, this is your last chance for the raw, lonely experience. The train makes no more stops. God has already condemned you. Go here. Make an account. Pay HAIL SATAN dollars. Know the devil.

So I'm guessing the four endings are the three different characters being the devil and then the secret dance party ending.

Tollymain posted:i hope the endings aren't paced out too wide, they really need to be experienced roughly in one piece imo If you mean the updates for each individual ending I agree, I'm planning to post the final updates for this playthrough one after another. All of them should be up within a period of a few hours at worst. If you mean showing nearly every ending neck and neck well..........we still got a substantial second playthrough to do. I'll skip what we've seen before of course but there's gonna be some time between this ending and the next

i'm curious how many blind-watch folks in this thread are interested in the game specifically for the horror elements, or the queer elements, or, well, i can't think of any other particular hooks along those lines right now im tired cut me some slack

I only just started reading the thread and I'm actually intrigued in where it's going. Like I'm expecting something out of the ordinary is just normal in that univerise like in Pathologic. Or maybe it's very subtle in the whole devil/god thing and it's not as outlandish as it seems. Or...it could all be just a dream where they are actually just telling ghost stories at a campfire.

Honestly, I expected it to be a mess. But. If you are curious about this game. Please pay your  bux and play.

That it's an SSLP makes it easy to follow along. Is this a bible camp in some Harry Turtledove alt-Earth?

i don't think it's alt-history if that's what you mean. god is real, and you can tune in to his radio station. the devil is real enough to be a statistical cause of death

Tollymain posted:i don't think it's alt-history if that's what you mean. I think they're referring to Toxic Spelldump which is more Urban Fantasy - just instead of secret vampires, every piece of technology we use is instead magical devices or blessed by gods, such as flying carpets and casting sympathy magic on alpine snow to artificially whiten teeth.

I think WKTD is definitely angling for more of a magical realism feel than a full urban fantasy feel. The presence of the unnatural is never really explained or codified, and seems to work more on emotional principles than logical ones.

That scene is mostly the same for all the endings, but it was the last one to do so. 3 AM is when poo poo gets real. The devil is here, and the devil is lonely.
