What may be going through their heads as this was happening? The player sends only the two out; the very first who arrived and got the news of their fallen ancestor. Dismas and Reynauld were but simple men bound together by distant heritage, with little knowledge of what would befall them. Though, they became stronger together. Along with other people of distant family or just simple mercenaries out for gold. The two had steeled minds. Dismas' dagger and pistol polished to an almost mirror finish, and Reynauld's sword and armor cleansed with holy water. As they would fight however, the madness and insanity of the situation continued to creep into the Crusader's mind, no matter how steeled he is. The idea to lose your mind could spell ruin for the two. His resolve was virtous by nature however. Clinging onto the religion he knew from his earliest point, as well as the companionship of his fellow man. The madness was truly being turned into a force, after all. The boost in morale and faith of Reynauld offered great aid in Dismas' fight. Despite cosmic powers at hand, puncturing and re-arranging the very flesh they're made of, the will of Dismas let not the dagger and pistol slip out of his hand. Quite in contrary in fact. With every attempt at Dismas' life, the almost razor sharp dagger would tear and sever the unnatural flesh in response...Until the very thing that was said to destroy this very earth was slain...By two men of epic proportions.

Things I wish the ending contained: The reaction of the Hamlet's residents when Reynauld and Dismas went after the Heart of Darkness and both returned victorious and alive. Clearing even one of the leadup missions maximizes everybody's morale, so hearing that a generation gets to live not in the shadow of the Heart's curse would make for quite an evening in the Hamlet. It's not in keeping with the games Lovecraftian themes, but victory is not a hollow notion to those villagers.

I like this, the final battle plays out very fittingly. It's left ambiguous whether the heroes faced a great old one or eldritch god or just some deep hallucination borne of madness. Did the whole thing happen in the depths of the darkest dungeon or was it all in their heads? Regardless, the story is at least partially driven by what goes on in the heads of the heroes. What they feel, believe, and imagine becomes practically real as their minds affect how they experience the world, regardless of whether it is actually physically happening or not. By that logic, if they truly believe they can triumph over whatever they face in the dungeon, then at the very least their chances of surviving greatly improve, even if they stand before a god. If a paradoxical thing that should not be can indeed exist, then nothing is truly impossible, even defeating that which defies understanding.

What may be going through their heads as this was happening? The player sends only the two out; the very first who arrived and got the news of their fallen ancestor. Dismas and Reynauld were but simple men bound together by distant heritage, with little knowledge of what would befall them. Though, they became stronger together. Along with other people of distant family or just simple mercenaries out for gold. The two had steeled minds. Dismas' dagger and pistol polished to an almost mirror finish, and Reynauld's sword and armor cleansed with holy water. As they would fight however, the madness and insanity of the situation continued to creep into the Crusader's mind, no matter how steeled he is. The idea to lose your mind could spell ruin for the two. His resolve was virtous by nature however. Clinging onto the religion he knew from his earliest point, as well as the companionship of his fellow man. The madness was truly being turned into a force, after all. The boost in morale and faith of Reynauld offered great aid in Dismas' fight. Despite cosmic powers at hand, puncturing and re-arranging the very flesh they're made of, the will of Dismas let not the dagger and pistol slip out of his hand. Quite in contrary in fact. With every attempt at Dismas' life, the almost razor sharp dagger would tear and sever the unnatural flesh in response...Until the very thing that was said to destroy this very earth was slain...By two men of epic proportions.
Dude this is good.

By far the creepiest thing I ever encountered in that game was meeting the Collector, and upon defeating him, my reward was "Dismas' Head." Dismas was very much alive, and often carried around his own head.
Its a reference to St. Dismas, the thief crucified next to Jesus Christ whom converted and was redeemed. Junia's head is that of a saint that spread christianity to the russias. And Barristan is a reference to Game of Thrones.
@Andrew Whiting Knowing Lovecraftian fuckery it could be either, or both, and its likely Dismas himself is a reference to saint dismas
"Why are you carrying around your own head?" "I dunno. Looks cool tho."
@@Oryxification I havr to disagree, I found out that some of the heads have the name of your dead heroes. Maybe it's just random, but I find it weirdly fitting to find the head of your highway man in a secret room, since he died from the pigs 3 weeks ago

not really. In the end, you did manage to avert the crisis, and kill the heart of Darkness.

I love how the dialogue about sacrificing loads of heroes to get there doesn't change even though this run has zero deaths. I feel like the devs never expected anyone to manage that so they didn't have any alt dialogue made.
I mean, even if no heroes actually died, you still put them through hell for your own ends, irreparably damaging them in the process . Like how when you send them on darkest dungeon quests, they have nightmares and want to die after they return from them. They may be fine physically, but their minds are forever damaged

Man the tiny detail of the finger drumming the ancestor does adds so much. You get this impression of a calculative person, willing to do whatever it takes and putting acquisition of knowledge front and paramount above safety or humanity.
Usually finger drumming is more of a tell for neurotic/unstable personality. Also, especially after some of them are killed, animations get staggered and it gives the impression of this random tentacles wiggling so ever-present in Lovecraft stories
It gave me more of a feeling of impatience, like someone trying to deal with an annoying task that is dragging on far longer than they'd like.

Things I wish the ending contained: The reaction of the Hamlet's residents when Reynauld and Dismas went after the Heart of Darkness and both returned victorious and alive. Clearing even one of the leadup missions maximizes everybody's morale, so hearing that a generation gets to live not in the shadow of the Heart's curse would make for quite an evening in the Hamlet. It's not in keeping with the games Lovecraftian themes, but victory is not a hollow notion to those villagers.

Also considering what the heart is, a few hundred years seems like a long time, something like this has alot more power and influence than cthulhu so lets not pretend that's it about to go back to sleep for even a year let alone 500. Keep in mind, someone like fucking hastur is no more than a side boss, don't mistake the heart as weak for a second. This is a being capable of feats on par with nyarlathotep.

Perhaps after defeating the “outgrowth” of the entity under the manor, the area becomes sanctified, the sun (or whatever the DD equivalent of god is) blesses it, and it becomes a new area of peace & prosperity. The hamlet becomes a town, then a great city, those who labored in the dungeons have finally cleared them of their filth, rebuilding the estate, burning down the weld/swamp, etc. But then the ancestors son finds something, a way to permanently kill the fiend beneath the surface.... He brings his group of grizzled veterans to the mountains of old, from which a way to reach the beast, and subsequently slay it, can be found...

I thought it was weird that the ancestor would be fighting you in the end. Until the "sporadic reproduction" happened, combined with the "we are the same". The heart of darkness, creator of all, can re-create anything it wishes to, and anything it consumes. So the ancestor, in his fervent search for whatever he was searching for, stumbled upon what was basically a God, and was consumed by it.

You put it there with near perfection :o
I like this, the final battle plays out very fittingly. It's left ambiguous whether the heroes faced a great old one or eldritch god or just some deep hallucination borne of madness. Did the whole thing happen in the depths of the darkest dungeon or was it all in their heads? Regardless, the story is at least partially driven by what goes on in the heads of the heroes. What they feel, believe, and imagine becomes practically real as their minds affect how they experience the world, regardless of whether it is actually physically happening or not. By that logic, if they truly believe they can triumph over whatever they face in the dungeon, then at the very least their chances of surviving greatly improve, even if they stand before a god. If a paradoxical thing that should not be can indeed exist, then nothing is truly impossible, even defeating that which defies understanding.

Dismas was always my favorite. Moving fast, vast range and on my playthroughs most reliable one. Even if expedition goes sour he still can turn everything around... Somebody told me that was the name of a penitent thief, crusified next to Jesus. If only I knew.
When your ancestor finds Kingdom Hearts and all goes horribly wrong:
On that old road, we found redemption.
Dismas to Final Boss: *I never miss!*
So the reward you get for winning is the game telling you that you lost and everyone will die and everything sucks and it was all for nothing.
That's what all cthulu/lovecraftian horror type games and stories revolve around. There is no escaping the inevitability of it all. Only to stall for as long as you can.
The most you could hope for is to make it sleep again after what the Ancestor did. In Stygian, it wakes up all on its own if you take too long.
Well, there's a sequel.
@Nii Albezsta tbh it actually reminds me of the dark souls ends, pushing back the end of the world, and this one is actually less depressing when you think about it, as in dd universe you can do it indefinitely, but in dark souls the flame gets weaker and weaker each time, with less and less time between cycles, to eventually it being inevitable that it dies for good
Nii Albezsta I don’t know what you expected. Any “victory” in a Lovecraft story is always a hollow one. If that annoys you, that’s fine. Nothing to get too worked up about.
