I also went to drainage for 1st time, got all way to filtration system. But when I got to Filtration system - it was pitch black. I understood that this is not where I should be, at least not with out any light source. Going further would be suicidal. But it took me 3 hours to craw my way out to 2nd previous shelter before Filtration system. Dying in long drowned pipe or in the middle of the route because how far the shelter was.
4:11 The Ancients' naming system is literally "Hey, want a name like something straight outta Touhou Project?" "Sure!" Three days later... "GENSOKYO MILLENIUM ~ HISTORY OF THE MOON, COME DOWN FOR DINNER!"
Of all the lore videos on this game, this is the most comprehensive one out there. And also the most entertaining one. I fucking love your content man. Never have I seen a content creator but THIS much effort into their first 3 videos. Keep it up brotha.
Wasn't "The Great Problem" actually referring to specifically the other creatures that aren't the ancients? As in, figuring out how to make the lizards, vultures, etc (all other creatures) ascend? I don't exactly remember why the ancients cared for the other lives they were leaving behind, but I can see how tough it is to try to make thousands of non sentient creatures ascend.
You're absolutely correct. Five Pebbles and Moon both talk about how they were supposed to help "everyone", not just the ancients. And in the pearl found atop the Wall, an ancient talks about how Five Pebbles is supposed to be a, "gift to the lesser creatures of the world". Ancients building the Iterators because they were scared of becoming echoes is kind-of a big misconception actually, they barely knew about them as shown by Moon calling the echoes, "horror stories" once, like it was just a rumor that ascension through void fluid could fail and turn you into a weird ghost squid. It's actually also a misconception that the civilization who built the Iterators is even called, "The Ancients", that name actually belongs to the civilization who built the Depths, which predates the Iterator-builders in the same way the iterator-builders predate the slugcats and scavengers. The iterator-builders' true name is never said anywhere, so we don't really know what they were called.
this guy is so calm he sounds like he should be a really smart documentary and yet all this videos are funny memes jokes and funny yet very true analogies
As an aspiring artist myself, your work is inspiring to see; the amount of effort, heart, and comedy in these videos really shows your passion 🙌 keep pressing for greatness!
I'm just Impressed how PovKetz can read his script in that voice without bursting into laughter. Nice work dude, all you have done is produce quality content. Keep it up :)
I wonder what stories and lore the 5 new sluggies are going to add in downpour? And I feel bad that black kitty is stuck to sandbox. The black one should have a story too.
It's not exactly a new game, but by god I'd enjoy seeing an Outer Wilds review done in this tone. Your videos are both highly amusing, and a good way to show someone the general gist of a game they probably won't have the time to play.
Great video man, your commentary and edit perfectly balances sarcasm and information, if I could recommend a game for you to review you should definitely try out outer wilds
LET'S GO! I'm so happy you uploaded! Even though you only have a few vids, you have a HUGE amount of potential! I'm excited for future content, Pov! Now, to actually *watch* the video...
the first video was great, sadly i hadn't seen one from your channel before, because i love the game and its lore and your presentation is very good, of course i came for more
This is fucking amazing. I can't even comprehend theese jokes, the pop culture refrences, and other amazing stuffs! Thank you, for this amazing welcome to the game! Just in case anyone's wondering: i have finished the game
It's actually highly likely it goes Hunter, Survivor, and Monk. This is best illustrated by the Rot within Five Pebbles' System getting progressively worse, reaching it's peak during Monk playthrough. Aswell as his comments to the Monk about how he's already seen numerous Slugcats pass through his chamber.
also tthe theory goes that cyans and reds got outcompeted [extreme resource usage and hostility] leading to them being rarer in survivor/monk playthroughs but still common in hunter
DLCs out now buoys and it is WILD. I won’t say any more but I do hope to hear the deep dulcet tones of Pov talking a bout this lovely post apocalypse again soon.
Coming back after downpour fixed the ol 'lost key item, better die' problem lol. Now they just respawn where they last were. Losing them to scavs especially was annoying since you didn't want to kill them because rep. But now they are basically free rep, trade the pearl and just go pick it up from that spot next morning.
I think reincarnation is not like you just wake up with your exact body,that is just for mechanical purposes,obviously it would not be fun to die and then wake up as a baby noodle fly and then wait until you are an adult or something like that and then get killed and wake up as a batfly,but I think reincarnation works that if an animal dies,it simply “reincarnates” as a baby in another place
I'm fairly certain the Great Problem was how to have all life other than the Ancients ascend with them, not how the Ancients could ascend reliably. "The good news first. In a way. I am what you are searching for. Me and my kind have as our purpose to solve that very oscillating claustrophobia in the chests of you and countless others. A strange charity-you the unknowing recipient. I the reluctant gift. The noble benefactors? Gone. "The bad news is that no definitive solution has been found. And every moment the equipment erodes to a new state of decay. I can't help you collectively, or individually. I can't even help myself." "For you, though, there is another way. The old path. Go to the west past the Farm Arrays, and then down into the earth where the land fissures, as deep as you can reach, where the ancients built their temples and danced their silly rituals. The mark I gave you will let you through." "Not that it solves anyone's problem but yours." - *Five Pebbles* "We were supposed to help everyone, you know. Everything. That was our purpose: a great gift to the lesser beings of the world. When facing our inability to do so, we all reacted differently. Many with madness." - *Looks To The Moon* Loved the video btw.
Keep it up man, love your stuff. A bit different but I’d suggest a deep dive into a game called foxholes lore. Which much like rain worlds lore is a fucking mess.
Showing the ancients as gold faucets is the best I've seen them look.
3:59 ah yes my favorite ancient; 7 water drops, leaky faucet.
Mine the car engine
i've never heard anyone explain what the red centipede is so well while also saying what it can do at the same exact time
Part 2 let's gooooooo looking forward to part 3 when dlc rolls around 😎
my friend is a beta tester/level designer for it! i know some of the Deepest Lore, and it's really good! you won't be disappointed!
@@biteybeast yo that's so cool!!! I can't freaking wait!
@@colfy3961 me either tbh!!
Personally looking forward to artificer the DOOMcat
@@angsty_saint risk of rain world 2
I actually went to drainage my first play through and ended up maturing like a depressed child.
I also went to drainage for 1st time, got all way to filtration system. But when I got to Filtration system - it was pitch black. I understood that this is not where I should be, at least not with out any light source. Going further would be suicidal. But it took me 3 hours to craw my way out to 2nd previous shelter before Filtration system. Dying in long drowned pipe or in the middle of the route because how far the shelter was.
I've seen many rain world lore videos, but with your humor, voice, and edits. This is going to be one of the best.
4:11 The Ancients' naming system is literally
"Hey, want a name like something straight outta Touhou Project?"
"Sure!"
Three days later...
"GENSOKYO MILLENIUM ~ HISTORY OF THE MOON, COME DOWN FOR DINNER!"
come down for dinner is the third name
I mean. Translating Asian names to English will be like items. So I guess it's just the language.
Basically: Black man with lightning in the background telling you to have a pleasant day.

Really like your unique style of humor. Looking forward to the downpour video when that happens and whatever project it is you work on next
Yesss your editing is so satisfying and entertaining. It great to see more rainworld videos :D

"The monkey's paw curls..."
Haha, sofanthiel go brr
the black kitty is dead
Good news
10:16 I felt that near miss 'OH' 😨
Your voice is pure ASMR fuel, coupled with my love/hate of rain world is a potent combination. Jolly good show!
It's not exactly a new game, but by god I'd enjoy seeing an Outer Wilds review done in this tone. Your videos are both highly amusing, and a good way to show someone the general gist of a game they probably won't have the time to play.
Your editing and delivery is simply amazing. Keep going, you will be blessed by the algorithm soon enough.
God, your videos are perfect!
YOUR EDITING STYLE GOES HARD AS FUCK THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE
oh shit, I never knew that the monk could find the survivor as an echo. Maybe I should play them.
Great video man, your commentary and edit perfectly balances sarcasm and information, if I could recommend a game for you to review you should definitely try out outer wilds
LET'S GO! I'm so happy you uploaded! Even though you only have a few vids, you have a HUGE amount of potential! I'm excited for future content, Pov! Now, to actually *watch* the video...
the first video was great, sadly i hadn't seen one from your channel before, because i love the game and its lore and your presentation is very good, of course i came for more
This is so beautiful, and such an informative video for Rainworld lore. Thank you for this masterpiece.
I keep coming back to watch this vid, as well as your previous RW vid. They're both so funny and have tons of rewatchability
I've watched this video about 5 or 6 times all the way through today, and I don't regret a single thing.
This is fucking amazing. I can't even comprehend theese jokes, the pop culture refrences, and other amazing stuffs! Thank you, for this amazing welcome to the game!
Just in case anyone's wondering: i have finished the game
another youtuber that posts awesomes videos every couple months? i think i found a new favorite.
I love consuming gravel
How in the world are your videos this good when there's only three of them???
I really hope you can do more of these videos, not just on rainworld but anything you find entertaining. They are a blast.
I like it a lot, though I only ever heard the theory of hunter being the last in the time line, reviving Moon after she has fallen apart entirely.
It's actually highly likely it goes Hunter, Survivor, and Monk. This is best illustrated by the Rot within Five Pebbles' System getting progressively worse, reaching it's peak during Monk playthrough. Aswell as his comments to the Monk about how he's already seen numerous Slugcats pass through his chamber.
@@PovKetz also the colored pearls being lost to time in the monk playthrough are a good clue
also tthe theory goes that cyans and reds got outcompeted [extreme resource usage and hostility] leading to them being rarer in survivor/monk playthroughs but still common in hunter
only 3 videos and all of em bangers, keep it up
Hell yeah! I saw your two videos like just three days ago, and you got another one! And it’s rain world too!
The name is basically in a nutshell of the lore, also great video as always it seems.
I stumbled upon your videos and I absolutely love them. Please never stop! These are amazing!
WOOOO YEAH BABY LETS GO
Their naming convention makes 2 girls 1 cup seem like an appropriate name to put on someone or something
SMH, didn't mention that survivor can go gamer mode and upgrade Big Sis Moons gaming rig by stealing a neuron from 5 pebbles body
Ah but my friend, Downpour has come out. You have work to do ;)
Fnaf is now an ancient name now, you can't prove this, you also cant disprove this
DLCs out now buoys and it is WILD. I won’t say any more but I do hope to hear the deep dulcet tones of Pov talking a bout this lovely post apocalypse again soon.
Informative and hilarious with peak editing skills. Subscribed!
This was very good. I will wait patiently for whats next.
Omg this was so amazing I can't wait to see the dlc videos!!

Losing them to scavs especially was annoying since you didn't want to kill them because rep. But now they are basically free rep, trade the pearl and just go pick it up from that spot next morning.
Feels like it's been a lot longer than four months!
These videos are really good, your voice is also very nice. Cant wait for more videos
Another great video from povkets, and i subscribed
I describe this channel as a mix of uberdanger and sstzeentach, but unique
This guy is insaine, if his third vid is this high quality, he’s going places and I’m going to follow
You’re hilarious, ill be looking out for more videos in the future!
"avoid the drainage system on your first few playthroughs"
well guess I should have watched this before deciding it was time to go swimming
Keep doing them like this and your channel will explode in no time!
YES. new povkets vid. since this is the 3rd vid I wasnt sure there would be one lol.
This video is like ol reliable: consuming gravel.
i need more of this content
I love your rain game vids, i will be waiting for downpour vids
Damn you algorithm why did you only recommend this NOW??!
This channel is a delight and I'm here for the long haul.
Part 2! I’m so happy!
Wonderful video, friend. Never played the game, but I want to now!
I love this guy! He's great
Yesss finally good work
Yo them improvement is palpable
cant wait for 3rd part whenyou talk about sliver of straw and the truth
Bro I love ur voice, and ur editing, u make ur vids so rewatchable

"She then refused to elaborate... *And fucking died.*"
My sides dude
Can’t wait till the ssethtzeentach collab in the future, I can see it with my minds eye
Now do it again with the added emptiness and confusion Saint's ending brings to the table
none of your jokes miss, so good

These videos are awesome. You deserve way more subs!
good job with the video man, keep going sir.
Awesome video as always
This is so good underrated video
i stayed at the place you get dropped in when you start a survivor game after 87 cycles i still have not met the monk
love ur editing!!
The slipped in memes keep catching me off guard 😂
More uploads from this great UA-camrs love the rain world content
New favorite youtuber
and then downpour happened and which caused several gamers to get a case of depression and confusion
I like learning about suicide sauce, toxic ai groupchats, and water guzzlers named after rocks. Thanks for spreading this information.
Good work!
A happy ending, I am crying right now.
Drainage System was my second area. It was a good training ground for dealing with the BS of the game.
I hope in part 3 he talks about Arty's post campaign drip😎😎😎
you should do one for the down pour, unless you already done that
Keep it up man, love your stuff. A bit different but I’d suggest a deep dive into a game called foxholes lore. Which much like rain worlds lore is a fucking mess.
1:39 accidental I.P Leakage
Looking forward to more content
god i went into the drainage system by accident help me
Based and Red Pebbled
love this channel. it's fucking hilarious
