I found this video because I was on your channel for the Warriors and HK content. I was confused, but eventually decided to look it up, found out my computer can’t run Rain World (Macintosh...), settled for a lore video instead, and before I knew it I had been completely and utterly pipelined. I am now a dedicated Rain World fan. Thanks, North.
Ah, the symphony of the wild slug cat, it appears we've been lucky as to have witnessed it. During this odd defense mechanism, it sings a song of fear, defense, and strength to confuse its predators. Such a glorious and magnificent creature.
I'm absolutely loving how much attention rain world is getting because I have loved the ever living sh*t out of this game and it warms my heart to see so much content of it now
this video was (somehow) my first step into the universe of rain world. don't ask me why i decided to click on it when i saw it in my recommended videos, or why i decided to look further into what this game was after watching this, but i did. ive since done multiple playthroughs of the game, read a lot about the lore, and of course browsed a lot of rain world memes it's pretty weird coming back to this video after all that. it's a really simple video but at the time, i didn't really understand what i was looking at, or how much of a shitpost this is. now i do.
the fact that this loops pretty much perfectly has üotentially led me to listen to this for 4 hours straight non stop. I paused the video since but can still hear it. My car and phone playlist were replaced with a 10 hour loop. This is my life now

You are witnessing a slug cats defense mechanism. Except for everything else that is not an ordinary Scug like arti, saint, spear master, and much more
i screamed like that only after i saw that blue lizards that jumps all around the place but always gets you.... i was so happy when i saw a green one again after being through hell.
WuuUuUUUuuUuuuUu I like to think that Slugcats can scream like this rather than hiss like a normal cat. Lol. This sound is also my brain's undoctored response to seeing a DLL completely in the way of the direction I wanna go, and isn't moving no matter how hard I try to lure it somewhere else.
As you can you the local slug cat attempts to scare away its predator with low time humming noise theses creatures are fascinating a nature to behold theses creatures is what makes our planet home
You're laughing now, but the slugcat is actually performing an instinctual fear response in a futile attempt to scare off the predator.
