Fun fact the studio that worked on this game apparently had a licensing problem which causes the studio to separate into two different studios. Both made their own Lovecraft game. This game and the sinking city
I personally feel like the old call of chulthu dark corners of the earth is superior in terms of story to these two. Same with Sherlock Holmes in the call of chulthu ( which was made by the same company as the sinking city) I do love these games though i feel story of the new call of chulthu somewhat falls flat at some point . It's also important to recognise that the sinking city is a combination of many lovecraftian stories while coc is centered around a specific one
A few things worth noting: 1) The protagonist Edward Pierce is a WWI veteran who served in a campaign where most of his teammates were killed and so certain experiences he has or may have during the game seem to basically be "triggers" for his trauma which chip away at his sanity. 2) Sarah likely gave away the Shambler painting to the Sanders because Charles forced her to after she summoned it in a ritual in her office and Charles had to rush in to save her 3) It's clear that it was Charles Hawkins who was hiding out in Warehouse 36 after he was severely burned by the lamp Sarah smashed on his face during their fight. Due to him and the other cult members consuming Leviathan's flesh, they had regenerative properties but his severe injuries and loss of tissue resulted in him regenerating with cephalopod tissue from Leviathan (it's clear that he was like this before breaking into the bookstore to get the Necronomicon). He probably saw his disfigured reflection and was repulsed which caused him to smash the mirror 4) Charles' motives are likely selfish, not just protective of Sarah. He'd been traveling the world searching for powerful items and met her on his travels before they married. She was already having visions and making paintings of them. It was clear that the cult regarded her as an "oracle" and she could "communicate" with Cthulhu/Leviathan through visions and according to visions of the past that Leviathan shows Edward, Sarah was already in the cult and had advised them that they needed a "Truth-Seeker" who would be called to the island and who she needed to connect and work with in order to awaken Cthulhu. Charles assumed this would be him because he'd poured his entire fortune into serving the cause of the cult but got mad and jealous when she painted a vision of Edward and Charles realized he hadn't been chosen. This initiated their fight where the room caught fire and their son died. Afterward Charles had her locked away in Riverside against the wishes of the cult and Fuller was happy to oblige since the institute was funded with Charles' fortune. Charles was punishing her for not giving him what he had expected or wanted (the vision Edward has of Charles on his way to Alabaster Point confirms this) 5) A lot of people have mentioned that Silas the caretaker only appears in the beginning. I actually have a theory that he's the one who attacks Edward upstairs, snatches the painting of him, and leads him on a chase through the tunnels where Edward finds the painting on an altar and the cult member tries to kill him before they both fall and the other guy, likely Silas, seems to have died. It's mentioned that Silas regarded Charles as a son and that the cult members themselves didn't actually want Edward dead since he was chosen as their Truth-Seeker. Since Silas is shown having taken Sarah from the burning room after Charles ran out, Silas clearly knew Sarah wasn't dead and was probably in on the cover-up and serving Charles' interests over those of the cult. Plus since he could easily disappear when Edward was chasing him, he seemed to know the ins and outs of the mansion and tunnels well which makes sense if he's the caretaker.
@@nomernomznomz6015 My take wasn't totally different from his, I'd just say his examination of the game was a bit linear and didn't dive into some of the background info and hidden clues of the game. To be fair a lot of stuff in the game that I've observed is stuff that I've only encountered after several different playthroughs because I happened to look in the right place or leveled up enough on the right skill to get certain dialogue options or bits of info that I wouldn't otherwise get. The fact that it would take several playthroughs just to piece things together (since it's impossible to max out all the skills at once that are required to uncover certain bits of info), probably makes it tedious for a lot of people even if the game wouldn't take extremely long. A lot of stuff also isn't overtly stated but merely heavily implied (such as the regenerative properties of Leviathan's oil and meat), so it's easy to get confused.
I think the idea around Edward's drinking helping him maintain his sanity is that it calms him down by making him believe that he must be hallucinating or affected by the alcohol and that this is what is making him see the things he's seeing. It's a convenient lie he can tell himself
Another excellent recap and analysis! There's just one thing amiss - the book is called the Necro-no-micon, while in the video you pronounce it as Necro-micon ( just missing a syllable there). I totally didn't catch on that the sleeping pills he was taking had already sucked him into this story before Sarah's father even came into his office. That's a nice touch.
Missing a few syllables in your own phonetic example there... *Nek-roe-nom-ih-con* I found it unlikely that it was never mentioned by a voice actor during gameplay. Wouldn't someone who actually played the game have been exposed to the pronunciation? 🤔 P.S. I skipped through a no commentary playthrough by SHN and, sure enough, they actually SAY the name. Specifically at 3:34:10 in their playthrough. 🤨
I bought this game on accident thinking it was the Sinking City. I played it to the end and loved it. I glad you're covering this game. It's a hidden gem
16:22 -16:49 I always love when I can find a scene in a game where I instantly recognize what games the devs were inspired by. This one moment of Edward hiding behind a desk as the Shambler emerges from the painting to stand on top of that desk is such a clear love letter to the famous Alien Isolation scene where Amanda Ripley first sees the Xenomorph fully emerging from the vents. 💗
Well, I for one hope for more Lovecraftian-themed games. They make for great stories when you are the one telling them. Of course, a variety is the best, and I hope to see more content from you in the future, Lovecraftian or not.
@@GamingHarryYTI would ask for you to explain Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones, but, apparently, it ended on a cliff-hanger? Funny thing is, there aren't that many play-throughs of it here in UA-cam.
I'd consider myself a massive fan of Lovecrafts work, even as much as having most of my arms covered tattoos of his works. While Call of Cthulhu isn't one of his most out there works. It certainly is lays the foundations incredibly well for his world and stories.
@@harrisonhaine1199 I personally consider The Shadow Over Innsmouth to be his best and most well rounded work, coming towards the end of his life in 1931. But i do have a soft spot for The Alchemist, which was written when Lovecraft was 18 in 1908. There is a BBC Radio 4 audio drama of The Shadow Over Innsmouth that i suggest you listen to. It's by far one of the best adaptations of the work.
the names of the ships, Scylla and Charybdis, have mythological significance. in Greek mythology, the infamous voyage of Jason aboard the Argo saw him faced with an impossible choice at sea. he had to choose whether to attempt to navigate around a massive whirlpool (the Scylla) that would have smashed the ship against the rocks, or try to go around a giant sea monster (the Charybdis) that, should it spot them, would leave the ship intact but at the cost of eating some of its crew. this was the original being stuck between a rock and a hard place
Hmm didn't the Leviathan show Pierce he'd be executed by Cat (chapter 10)? I thought that was what was gonna happen, so I did not give her the med lit.
I just want to say you really deserve more views man. I watch a lot of essay/documentary/explanation channels similar to yours and your videos are in my top tier even compared to much bigger channels. Your style, voice, editing and narrative is just on point for this kind of genre.
I think the main reason I enjoyed this game so much is I absolutely love the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game, however I don't have anyone to really play it with. So to me this was bit of a love letter to that game. Fantastic video!
One of my favorite Lovecraftian games. I wanted to like The Sinking City more but it was just a bit lackluster is some areas. This game had its fair share of problems too but I enjoyed it overall.
Well a very big anti-climax for me is that I did not figure out Drake could be saved. I honestly thought it was a cutscene and I had to just watch the Shambler grab him, which is very disappointing, since he was my favorite character. Perhaps I'm just too slow. :(
Never heard the the sunken city pronounced that way. I heard "Relier," which adds interesting ideas to the whole thing. Plus I'm so stoked they included the Necronomicon in this story. It's almost like a sequel to the Call of Cthulu. Anyway. Im a big fan of Mountains of Madness as well
Cool video and one of my favorite games. I love how dark it gets and still after few gameplays not really sure what was going on. Ending on the dark note and keeping proper concept of Mythos. I have a big thing for Sarah, she has very dark and sad story...to be an oracle, unvoluterlly influenced and loosing her all family...what a damn fate
Ive been waiting for you to do a video over this! I played this myself and just felt it was perfect for this type of video. Very well needed as I had some trouble following the story while playing. Thank you so much for all the work you put into these videos!!
Great video and explanation. This game started off well but the story got way too convoluted and confusing by the end. They threw too much stuff into the mix. The original Call of Cthulhu book, even though it’s not linear, is more focused so much easier to understand while still keeping some mystery.
I really wish this game didn't suffer the problems it did, along with DCoTE and Sinking City. Surprisingly a common theme with the three games, along with how all 3 games start off fairly similarly. I really wanted them to be better than they were, but unfortunately all 3 seem to have suffered a great many things during their developments.
Incredible recap as always my friend!! Real quick tho, not sure if you know this but Cthulhu actually isn’t the father of the star spawn, but a member of their race, that became so powerful he ascended to becoming not just a great old one but the priest of the great old ones, thats what accounts for Cthulhu being so much larger than regular star spawn. The term “great old one” is more or less a power ranking and not related to just a particular race. Anyways thought you’d like to know that little tid bit! Cheers my friend!!!❤
Excellent video. I hope you do more such games. Though won't lie.... While I don't expect a Happy ending from such games as an option, a somewhat decent ending option that doesn't involve the Protagonist suffering years afterwards is very much needed. Also, keeping ones sanity mostly intact by drinking to excess? Everyone playing this game the first time around is going to completely miss that hidden aspect.
I had high hopes for this game, but I did go in blind, not knowing the studio/budget/budget choices behind it. I still think there has yet to be a Perfect Lovecraftian game (Even within the visual medium of representing the incomprehensible.)
As someone who has never read any Lovecraft book, the more I hear about it, less I think of it as an intricate horror experience and more like Anime written down.
Don't know if you have done a video on it but "Call Of the Sea", a short game, has some lovely Lovecraftian themes and mysteries. Maybe if you do another video, you could check that one out?
I really do enjoy your videos, they are always detailed and touch solely on the games. I really would love to see more videos about different mythos games

In terms of more detective work then Sinking City takes the win. In terms of the story then Call of Cthulhu takes the win. I finished both games in my pc back then and among the latest from one of the studios Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened I finished in my PS5, also lovecraftian, story wise it was okay, Call of Cthulhu takes the win for the story again, in terms of detective work? Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened offers a focused detective work rooted in the story while Sinking City offers detective work on so many stories therefore diluting the impact of its main story. All in all I love these games.
Idk why, but when I tried going through the other passage in chapter 2, the game didnt let me, I just assumed it had to do with something later in the game.

Late to the party but I gotta say I love your response. Just one question: wasn't Fuller part of the cult? why would he agree to lock sarah away?
Cult: No....impossible, how can you resist?!
Edward: I....am....an alcoholic
Ritual fails*
Cthulhu: Didn't dream that coming
I think the idea around Edward's drinking helping him maintain his sanity is that it calms him down by making him believe that he must be hallucinating or affected by the alcohol and that this is what is making him see the things he's seeing. It's a convenient lie he can tell himself
Who knew alcoholism was a good weapon against a dream god that was hellbent on taking your free will and sanity

The Shambler emerging from the painting is the best scene in the whole damn game.
Funny that Cthulhu is always the big bad in these things. IIRC he's more the doorman of the old gods than a real threat.
