Scanner Sombre (Full Game) - Lost With LIDAR
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- Deep in the darkness of a mythical cave feared by ancient cultures, there is no light to guide us. Instead, we'll use a LIDAR scanner to paint impressions of the chambers around us as an alternative to sight. However, the device isn't perfect, and sometimes, it shows us things that are hard to explain.
Check out the game on Steam: store.steampow...

I learned something from this. The Librarian is either painfully oblivious or painfully paranoid, but never both at once
ikr he has 0 self awareness and takes no caution but also is super paranoid at the same time and can get scared by his shadow.
he really just runs right up to the altar and almost backs off of a cliff multiple times and gets so distracted by his commentary that he ignores the stuff around him.
He's too immersed
true
actual horror movie character
Spoilers below!
If you're thorough enough with scanning the area around the tent in the beginning, you can actually find the corpse of your character. It's only a really subtle silhuette, but what's really brilliant is that you can start a new game with all the upgrades for your LIDAR and then switch to "material mode" in order to make it really obvious.
I was about to comment this without knowing, but decided to look for a comment that already did it. When he reached surface, i knew he was forced to relive his tracks back to where he started. So i assumed he died somewhere around the tent.
wow, nice
Good catch
Someone mentioned on Steam, that with him mentioning the stale air, and the fact he never knew how he died.. that he probably hit a bit of the cave filled with gas and just asphyxiated without ever even realising he was suffocating
@@FluffyDragon or, he just froze and starved to death as he was trapped, left without much of his equipment I assume.
I mean, caves are bloody cold
This idea is so cool: after you've scanned a large amount of space, you can see it. You know what was there but it's actually wrong, you know what WAS there, not what is currently there. You get this perfect sense of security that's not true. Such a good concept.
That aspect of it though is quite underutilized, taking place in a totally static world. I'd like to see this concept explored further, taking into account things that move and trip you up if you don't get constant scans and time things out.
@@SkeleTonHammer Exactly, just imagine scanning your way through this entire cave to only turn around and re-scan it to turn out someone's been trailing you, or the entire layout has changed out of nowhere with no hint.
@@SkeleTonHammer Also, the way the game handles moving things is weird. The lights actually move with the object when they shouldn't.
@@TheOneGuy1111that's what annoyed me with the first statue that rotates. it should be a surprise when shooting in it's direction that the arms block the light where they weren't. as it is it's just splatoon
I love love love love LOVE when horror games aren't afraid to show beauty. Seeing something so incredibly beautiful followed by pure fear is such a wonderful juxtaposition.
I'll keep that in mind when making my horror games :)
there are many more ghosts that you're missing, Librarian. every time you hear your LIDAR glitching a bit, try looking at the ground or around for silhouettes that weren't there before. I saw some pretty distinct footprints you, funnily enough, walked right over
Hah yeah it's quite funny sometimes how LIbrarian just simply 'naifly" ignores certain things
@@anormalstreetlamp6878 p
Yea, I feel like a better idea for the “invisible” ghosts, would have been them be a sort of “negative” space like how the lidar upgrades can’t be seen through walls, except they block the lidar bullets behind them. Therefore making them easier to see but also distinctly differentiating them from the more story important “visible” ghosts.
@@anormalstreetlamp6878 Is that meant to say naively?
@@thebenancesmodesart yes
I'm sad you didnt notice the humanoid shadows around 37:43 surrounding the altar after you did your burst scan.
Same, I was really hoping he would
And the ones sitting on the benches
He also didn't understand that the "static" sounds are when scanner hits organic. Or ghosts, maybe,
wtf
man i didnt notice either
Me too
I really love the "shadows" lidar casts, you have to "re-look-at" a location to see behind it, which ends up causing really cool images.
I actually started crying over that ending. The moment where the protagonists family is spreading flower pellets over the lake just broke me. Amazing game. Also incredible OST.
Same here, i'm not sure why people are complaining so much about the story. It's a simple plot where your character lives in purgatory with the ghosts of an ancient civilization who probably want him to stay down there with them for all eternity only to re-live the same journey over and over again.
the story does it's job well in my eyes, its just outshined by the game itself
and of course, the ost adds so much emotional value to it
@@TimSlee1 I think the story of the _character_ is great. However, the story of the caves themselves (AKA: "there was a cult, then a monastery, then witch hunts, then a mine, then a museum") leaves something to be desired.
Yeah, those elements show the true scale, depth and history of the place while leaving a bit to the imagination. How it was re-discovered by miners and how those sacrificed by the ancient cult became stuck down there like your character. It's not that convoluted, people just want any reason to be overly critical. @@TheOneGuy1111
@@TimSlee1 Of course it's not too convoluted, it's the opposite problem: It's too bare bones. Take the cult, for instance: All we learn is that there's a cult that did sacrifices, nothing more. You can say that this is to leave the rest up to your imagination, but there's barely anything there to base any theories off of; "a cult performing sacrifices" is about as generic as worldbuilding can get.
Now don't gt me wrong, I don't think it's a bad game because of this, I'm just pointing out that there is legitimate reason to be critical.
>talks about the ghosts
>proceeds to ignore the shadows *and* the audible clues that there's ghosts arond the altar
the fact you didn't notice the statue at 1:36:57 turn around to look at you chilled me to the bone, I had to re-watch that a few times to make sure they were actually looking at you.
lol i didn't seen it
I actually thought it did for a moment too! But notice as he approaches it, it's holding the pickaxe over its right shoulder, and as he walks away, it seems like it's holding it over its left. If it had turned to face him, it would have been holding the pickaxe over its right still; what we're seeing are the LIDAR dots from the front of the statue through the statue itself, making it look like it's facing him.
There was a story about the uneffable, presumably by Lovecraft but it may have been by someone else, where a man goes on an exploration into a structure in the desert that goes far underground. He had nothing with him but a torch and at some point early on it goes out. This leaves him to grope around in the dark but rather than turning back he continued on into what is assumed to be an ancient temple of some sort. At some point he gained some strange ability to see what was around him but not with his eyes (it's weird). This reminds me of that.
it is a Lovecraft story, indeed
@@slenderman_proxy8741 Thank you.
Got the name of the story?
Sounds like goos read
@@maritofuentes4690 you have "In the Mountains of Madness" which has a scene similar to this one, but the one described is... "The Necronomicon" if I recall properly, it's a story related to it since H.P. Lovecraft created it
It's said that some blind people can learn a sort of echolocation, haven't read it so idk but possible
What a blast from the past, haven't seen this game in years
edit: Gosh, I forgot how utterly unnerving this is. It really is like a new sense. Also UGH THE LAKE that's like the place that stuck with me most, heck that entiiiire scenario. I hate it, it's great.
Once you've finished the whole thing:
Try scanning the room you start the game in a little more thoroughly. There's a...bonus, so to speak.
... I still remember the absolute and utter terror I felt when I heard those fast approaching splashing sounds... I should have never assumed that I was alone in those caverns....
@@mistakesregretsandimperfec7740 Amnesia The Dark Descent water monster flashback. You can't really see it, but can hear it coming.
Loved someones video of this game a looong time ago but forgot the name for all those years. Thank you Librarian for reviving this game for me and other fans!
Errant signal?
@@skyportal8562 No idea, i wouldn't remember a voice from that long ago and finding it in youtube history would be basically impossible, if i even watched it on this account.
@@WizzyOoze could’ve been draegast-now drae I remember watching him play this
Fun fact, if you scan near your camp in New Game+ mode, you can find your own body outside your tent
Holy shit dude how did you not see all those people shaped shadows surrounding the sacrificial chamber!
I explained this on the Discord, but basically, I record in 1440p, but play in 4k. In-game it looked no different from the regular terrain gaps I was seeing everywhere, and I wasn't able to see them until the edit. You can see this effect in games with low-res text as well, where I'm not able to read it, but it looks clear on the video.
@@TheLibrarianYT perfectly understandable, however that doesn’t help the panic attack I was having as you were walking through said shadows, it was an emotional roller coaster of dry heaving in fear
@@TheLibrarianYT I wish we could see your reaction to noticing that while editing haha
I like the colour change based on proximity. The brighter red makes seeing shapes so much easier instead of cluttering it with the shapes behind it
At 37:49, the burst scan shows the outline of various figures standing around the alter.
and 44:41, a body hunched over
Yeah, it's kinda funny how immersed he is in the spooky atmosphere and perilous cliffs that he misses GHOSTS FALLING TO THEIR DEATH NEXT TO HIM. Made the whole bit where he noticed the folks pushing one off all that much spookier.
Eternal torment inflicted for mortal mistakes.
I knew you’d love this one. It’s just so you, that mix of dread and heartfelt joy that comes through in all your work. 💕
This game is so hauntingly beautiful, and considering the ending, really manages to capture the feeling you get when you're deep in caves. The feeling that the cave is Hungry and you spend time wondering when it's going to eat you.
I find it neat that the gun occasionally scans individual dots around objects, as if the rays are bouncing off of floating dust in the air unsettled by the character.
I feel like this game has a deeper meaning. The journey through the cave was like reliving past events, the horrors, the beauty and everything both good and bad in life with that creepy and comfy vibe. It's a great game and I think that it really suits the theme of your channel!
YES YES YES. This game is SUCH an underrated gem. I remember it kinda fell out of view when Iron Lung came around and became trendy because whenever anyone saw anything scanner sombre related they would just go "iron lung inspired!!!1?!/"
Maybe you can bring it back into the spotlight.
I just want to say a massive thank you for these videos. I’ve been a longtime fan but I recently had a traumatic car accident and I’ve been binge watching your videos whilst being bedridden. Lots of love from Britain ❤
May you heal well.
May you heal soon
The best of luck to you!
Thank you all, this is so wholesome! I often watch these whilst trying to sleep, you have a very soothing voice!
i never expected this game to be THAT deep! the realization in the end was heartbreaking, including the pond looking at everything we scanned without our family knowing
Him screaming "NO, NO!" when he was getting chased in the water was the most authentic, horror movie-level screaming I have ever heard.
Timestamp?
I remember stalactite vs. stalagmite this way: Stalagmite has a G in it. G stands for ground. Stalactite has a C in it, C stands for ceiling. So stalagmites are on the ground, stalactites are on the ceiling.
Sounds smarter than the way I learned - that stalactites have to hold on tight to cling to the ceiling, lol
I learned it with a slightly more complex mnemonic.
"StalaGMITEs Grow MIGHTY from the Ground, StalaCTITEs Cling TIGHTLY to the Ceiling."
“The m one is on the floor” is how I remember
@@QuantumWaltz wait, it's stalaCtites. Idk, maybe I'm too hick, but I always pronounced them both with a G in the middle. Stalagmites and stalagtights
Remove the E from Stalactites and you have a very primitive but effective way to remember which is which. Stalactites hang down like... well...
1:14:08 Don't know why but this comment made me think of the time that I had a Slaughterfish in Elder Scrolls Skyrim literally come up onto the land to get at me. Was a hilarious 'Oh god! THEY'RE EVOLVING!' type of moment. XD
I love how as you rise through the cave you get closer to the present- a physical representation of the passage of time.
Is everyone just gonna gloss over that ending, Was that screeching when we entered the water just us screaming in pain, sadness, despair? Did we become the Monster that was prowling the waters? How did we die? What happened?
I figure the thing in the water was probably another trapped soul like the protagonist, likely from one or many of the drowned/tortured witch trial victims. There's a lot of suffering in the cave and at the end the screech just points to them being the same, tormented sort of spirit. Older souls or ones that experienced great pain might be a little more vengeful/territorial than others, I suppose? Lashing out at anything they can perceive.
Near the start of the game with the tent if explored carefully, you can find a body- probably the player's. No obvious clues to what happened but could be a ton of thing. Heart attack, slip and hit their head on a rock, etc. Like the protagonist muses, they do not remember How they died, and we never get an answer to that.
@@BananaWisp Someone on steam put forth a theory that seems plausible to me. He mentions the air was stale.. he mighta just hit a pocket of gas and fell asleep, never realising he was suffocating or something
@@FluffyDragon Well...that's horrifying, I do love it though - for sure plausible. Thanks!
The thing on the water is a witch that was drowned
@@BananaWisp I heard the end screech and immediately thought that it meant WE were the monster. Trapped in a double-cycle, endlessly running away and endlessly running to stop it.
But maybe I'm reading too far into it 🤷♀️
I'm sure you've probably already heard of it but given your excitement at exploration, speculation and archeology you might enjoy The Outer Wilds. Probably not a game for your UA-cam channel but it can be best described as an archeology game set in a strange and beautiful solar system, discovering a long dead civilisation and piecing together numerous mysteries. The game even has a cork board with red string on it to connect pieces of the puzzle as you find them. 10/10 game.
Funnily enough, he actually did play Outer Wilds and the DLC. He loved both to death.
This is the type of game where I'd go and scan each and every square millimetre of space with that neat little LIDAR scanner, because of the completionist part of my brain, coupled with the whole "whoa! that's cool! let's do more with it!" part of my brain from ADHD.
it only just occured to me when you mentioned that the game was stimulating the "exploring and archeology part of your brain" that you would absolutely *adore* outer wilds. If you ever get the chance, on or off-recording, you should definitely give it a chance, librarian! I can safely say that it personally changed my life for the better, and that it's an absolutely amazing game about exploration and existentialism. Maybe not really horror, but still extraordinarily good.
Played this years ago when it came out. was an absolute thrill as i was part of a team at my old college developing Lidar scanning (building inside and out) and merging it with VR tech, and we found this little gem of a game. basically doing almost exactly what we wanted to do. the story and exploration constantly brought in a sense of wonder and an unease constantly growing the deeper you got. this game is a whole different head space in VR and i'm glad to see people are still finding it and enjoying it.
there is a new game named the Voidness which brings in the scanner again in another horror story, really excited for tha tone
I’ve been in wild caves before, and despite only being six minutes into watching, this game absolutely captures the feel of what it’s like down there. The extremely limited sight lines, truly invisible shadows, and extreme ease of getting lost, it’s all super on point.
nobody is talking about how good this game's music is...
That one acoustical track during the boat ride.
Absolutely stunning. I'd get the Soundtrack just for that alone.
I absolutely love this game, it's so cool to see such an interesting game mechanic
''
.
Man, not only is this a one of a kind game in terms of concept, the soundtrack is fittingly amazing.
Plus, your calm and analytical narration of events is just so relaxing, I'm glad I came across your channel
YAY! I was hoping for a Scanner Sombre video someday! Dreams do come true! Also there’s a secret that’s only available with a new game after completing the game. That’s near the tent
The pure panic at 1:04:42 is exactly how I felt as well when I saw that thing
Oh man, I think about this game every now and then and could never remember the name or figure out how to search for it. So good!
I love this game and it's great to see you playing it. I recommend going back through now that you've beaten it in the kinda new game plus mode they have where you start with all of the upgrades. Look around the earlier portions with the material scanner on
Hey Librarian, if you ever go deep through your comments and read through this.
1 - Hi :]
2 - You're really a turn to the content I see, I have to thank you for that. Though it may be weird to thank someone for their common nature. You're still a definite difference compared to every other creator on UA-cam. You know how to describe everything, you take your time when you know to take your time but you always seem to have a genuine reaction to things.
Even when it's something that scares you the same way the same times, this game is also different just as you said. It gives you a genuine fear of what you can't see till something that only gives you an object without definition scares you. But without the knowledge of it having a mind, where it's conscience is, and what it wants to do to you.
All in all, it's strange, and you take to your channel and your mind so much different than to what every other creator does. Thank You for being an amazing creator Librarian.
I think one of the scariest things about this game is when you think about the fact that the main character is in complete darkness at all times and can only see what is scanned by the lidar it makes you wonder if theres been any light around you from someone possibly following you or someone near you and you would never know or be able to see it.
Man i feel like playing LIDAR again but in a different platform, so damn cool. Merry Xmas and happy new year bro
I personally liked exploring Hazy Maze Cave in GMOD LIDAR. The sense of something so familiar, two degrees removed from the bing bing yahoo unsettling into full-on creepy terror
well that's one hell of an emotional rollercoaster. the excitement of lidar followed by terror, but quickly overshadowed by pure awe with an ending making it one of the saddest stories to have ever been put in an indie game.
I was waiting for you to play this game, so glad to be able to enjoy this game once again alongside you
I love your way of talking and reaction with complete focus on the game and your thoughts about it, really sets your channel leagues ahead of other gameplay channels
Yesterday I rewatched LIDAR video and I thought like: "It will be so cool if he plays Scanner Sombre". I guess my wish had been heard.
OMG SCANNER SOMBRE IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME GAMES I REMEMBER WHEN IT CAME OUT not many people played it which is a shame cause it's so good but maybe it's ok it stayed a hidden gem. Anyway I got *SO HAPPY* when I saw the notif you uploaded and played this I legit screamed
I honestly love when he uploads his videos are just perfect for basically everything, horror, chilling, staying up at night, etc.
1:24:40 the realisation hit me that when you scanned the guy he left a shadow..... When he was in the sacrifice room all the seats had shadows behind them... They're were in the room with him
So was it the cult that killed him?
I love your videos. You know when to pause and when to talk, your observations and thoughts are always interesting to listen as you somehow describe what we think about but not aware of.
Introversion also made Uplink, a hacking game, which was one of my childhood favourites.
don’t forget Darwinia!
Hell yes. One of my favourite atmospheric single player games to date. Haven't watched the vid yet but I'm sure I'm in for a great spooky, introspective, highly analysing, enjoyable ride.
I also really love this game because it is a great example for good pacing in games.
[SPOILERS]
You have the creepy experiences, then moments to breathe and relax, bits of dialog to assuage your fear with the first talk of "glitches" then the water areas with the witch ghosts, followed by the calm, beautiful boat ride to put you at ease again before things get weird again or creepy.
I do have to wonder how he got the boat down from the mine area though, since he had to have been the one to put it there, just like he was the one who set up the laser tripods as well. That's a lot of gear to bring with you.
I really love how fascinated and captivated you are and how you pose all these deep questions. It's just got this seriousnesss to it. And your voice is almost like someone talking in an audio book recording. Never seen a channel like this before. Really emerses you in the game. You just got yourself a new subscriber!
I went into this thinking it was a pure exploration game with a new style, found it through the Lidar mod which honestly got more attention than it deserved compared to this piece of art. The ending will echo inside me for a while, it is really haunting.
This game is beautful in its own way, a hidden gem, i cannot comprehend why it didn't get any more attention than it did, the only reason i can see is overpricing.
Yo I'm so happy you finally got to play this game it's just so under the radar
Yeah, flew right under the lidar
@@MistralOfficial 🤣lol
So under the scanner one could say
Yeeees. Since I saw your video on the Lidar mod for Gmod, I was excited to see you playing this game.
This game is amazing and its mechanic is incredible. I really hope that you enjoy this game as much as I did
Man, what a beautiful game this was... Thanks for playing, Librarian! I would never have the patience to play this kinda thing myself. x3
It was like watching a movie. At the end, the main character ended up like Made in Abyss...
great video again, only plroblem i had was i was jumping up and down screaming and crying that you didn't hit the burst button enough
The way this game takes you through time periods, from beginning to end, reminds a lot of how Portal 2 sends you through the ages of Aperture, and in a similar way of sending you to the depths and forcing you to climb back out
The boat ride sequence was genuinely beautiful and I was not expecting that from a game like this. The music combined with the way the dots lit up the area were just brilliant
Yours is a channel where I see an upload and think "Oh, great, he's going to love that".
1:04:40 never in my life have I ever recoiled so hard that I closed my eyes and curled up, for some reason that really got me.... I think actually seeing something move FAST towards you after an hour of static dots was way too shocking, plus that sound and the horrible thought that you'll never know what that thing actually looks like... god
Awsome! New Video!! Great content!! 38:15 There are many humanoid "shadows" around the altar.
@danse en rouge That was the first thing I noticed due to the static sounds that we also heard in that other LIDAR video when that "stalker" appeared.
I was thinking, “they’re right there!” and he didn’t notice any of them.
@danse en rouge Apparently it has to do with the difference in what he sees, versus how it records. From his perspective in 4K is appeared as nothing more than terrain, and he only noticed them in editing. (By the way, I know this because of a reply the Librarian himself made to another commenter.)

I love how this _essentially_ turns your sense of vision into a sense of touch.
_Well, more like a hybrid between vision and touch._
I think there is room for a whole genre of lidar games - effectively, that is just a camera replacement that could be included in any 3d 1st person style game... Imagine lidar shooters, lidar dungeon crawlers with combat elements...
Spoilers below.
I think the story could not have been better for the mechanics. At the start, you know very little, and your tools also don't let you understand your surroundings much. By the end of it, your scanner is much stronger but you still have to scan your surroundings to understand them. Similarly, a lot is revealed, but some critical information is still left for you to realize (such as the fact that we have been going backwards this entire time). One thing this game also does amazingly is foreshadowing: There was pieces of it literally everywhere. Your character initially stated that he was the first to come this deep, yet he didn't seem to have any comments on other LIDAR equipment scattered all over the place. He also stated that some poor souls who died down there were left to relive their deaths over and over again. With hindsight, there were so many instances of foreshadowing, yet it was all executed so perfectly that most players wouldn't be able to predict it until the very end, and those who do would not be sure until the end either.
This might be one of the best examples of game mechanics being used to enhance how the story lands by affecting the subconscious. It is so good.
Oh man I'm really happy to see this! I remember recommending this in the discord after the GMOD Lidar video and it's great to finally see king of spooks finally play this
glad to be one of the people who recommended scanner sombre and glad you played it!!!
Gotta say these cultists might not have been good people but they made some EXTREMELY WELL MADE BRIDGES and buildings like wow
Man super glad you got to this game, so good!
I usually don't comment on videos but this video stood out. Great commentary!
This video felt like I was experiencing it with you. Usually when a UA-camr plays games, I know them, but since this one isn't that popular all the plot points and lore I was experiencing for the first time too.
Calming voice, I can listen to these videos for hours at times.
When i have time to watch this i will...
It's one of my all-time favorite games. This was my first ever game with my VR headset
This game makes me feel really impressed. its ending was not I expected. And what is the best about this game is it has shown the whole processes you had scanned!
That game was so beautiful and interesting but stills kept me on edge watching it. I absolutely loved this
Starting at 37:49 I was YELLING at the screen for you to notice those shadows. AAAAA
I don't typically comment but oh my god this game is just... amazing! I love LIDAR and the concept of it and this was just a dream come true and the best part is it was played by my favorite UA-camr ❤️
after watching the gmod LIDAR video, i did a quick search for more LIDAR games/mods and came across this beauty. very glad to see you covering it, although if you are able to play it in VR you really should. the scanner works much better with depth perception
I'm just thinking, with the normal mode on the scanner, the dots glow red as you get closer to them. The family spreading red flower peddles around, loved this game and the idea behind it.
First time watching seeing your channel, enjoyed the game and commentary so far, so you earned a sub keep up the good work!!
Definitely underrated. Beautiful game. This got me in my feelings. Matpat better make a theory on this
The only issue i'm having si that when he gets the "static sound" he is supposed to use the "all scan" to get the human shapes and that kind of stuf, like in he gmod maps
librarian if you’re seeing this comment, just know you’re becoming one of my favorite youtubers. the way you create immersive and fun experiences is so unique. love the videos !
I just keep yelling "burst mode!" At the screen. I've never had a game enrapture me more than your commentary before. (Because your commentary is some of the best on UA-cam!) I want to see so much more of this but I know my computer couldn't possibly handle it. It's just so gorgeous you could stay completely silent and the game would still completely enthrall me. This might be the first and only time that has happened in one of your videos, a true credit to the game design than an indictment of your stellar commentary.
Is it just me, or when I watch Librarian i get so much positive energy from him?
Interesting how we take the sounds a little differently: you said the burst scan recharging made you think of the sound indicator the scanner might have for low battery, but I was actually thinking of it as a reassuring little reminder that everything’s working. I really like how beepy the scanner is, it adds something to the experience of using it: at the same time the lasers pierce the darkness, the beeps break up the deafening silence.
Damn! I remember watching this game back in 2017 by a crazy Italian UA-camr.
It was so damn cool
I randomly saw this video and thought "oh its gonna be vhill to watch" and then i heard your voice, im so happy you plays that game
"what if this thing is falling away beneath me?"
*continues to stand on it.*
What a beautiful game! Such a story. Unexpected.
This is such an interesting concept as a horror game. Also love how your painting a picture of the environment basically. Love this!
Edit: What a beautiful game this was
The fact that the guy at 11:30 was T posed made me giggle
He’s just asserting dominance.
That’s an A-Pose, not a T-Pose
It's a beautiful metaphor, when you leave this life behind, you're the only person who can see the journey you travelled, the choices you made and the thoughts you had. All that is left is tiny dots that make up peoples' perception of you.
I truly hope everyone that reads this will have someone make an effort to see as much of their life as possible, to share all that you are with, that at the end, someone can look into that pool and see a glimpse of that journey and those hardships and the perils you faced and overcame at every turn, that it all means something in the end
Stalagmites are on the floor like mites.
Stalactites hold on tight to the ceiling.
Just watched this for the first time. When he found the altar and burst scanned the room, he missed that it put silhouettes of cultists onto the walls without there being any object to cast the shadows.
