@@meloney I still am unsure if the red sprits are intentional but I’ve never seen them anywhere else, they came after a strike of thunder, and it would be a weird glitch otherwise. Also if they took the time to add green flash’s that only appear in accurate weather conditions, I wouldn’t put it past Rare to add TLEs
@matthewanderson7824 im outside several times a week to photograph any mid latitude aurorae there are, even during cloudy days and thunderstorms and never had luck to see sprites. Maybe one day games also add STEVEs or something too haha
@@meloney sounds fun, I’d think atmospheric photography and astronomy would have become a hobby of mine if I didn’t live in a light polluted hilly forest. The best way to find SPRITES is to be far away from a supercells anvil in flat non light polluted areas with minimal atmosphere distortion, which is why most SPRITE images are from the US Midwest. I’ve never heard of STEVEs before, are they TLEs or related to aurorae?
@@matthewanderson7824 more closer to aurora but a seperate but related thing. The essentially occur by the same mechanisms as aurora, but are much higher at around 450km and visible at much lower latitude. It has only been described since 2016, despite it not being that rare. It is currently not exactly known how and why and when they exactly occur, documented one myself during calm (KP3) geomagnetic activity at 52°N. Looked like a single extremly high and long cloud at first but glowing decebtly bright white. On photos it is often a bit reddish, but often way brighter than aurora. During the G4 storm last weekend we had several sightings again an they don't seem to be equal in both hemispheres unlike aurora :) I'm doing astrophotography for a few years but got more attached to mid latitude aurora photography at middle latitudes around 50°N. During solar activity we have auroras, at least photographic, here weekly despite being more far away form the magnetic pole here in europe and many many times visible. But I'm monitoring geomagnetic activity pretty much 24/7, including direct solar observation and monitoring of different magnetometers and satellite data around the world and being active in the fight against pseudoscience such as flat earthers etc :)
How it’s getting to me the way that, for all the annoyance and irreverence he kept speaking of the ancients and their rituals with, For all the bitterness he held against the creators who were cruel enough to abandon their artificial gods to waste away in their aimless toiling The comfort he clings so closely to in his dying hour is a literal hymn preserved from the days when Metropolis was populated. Days he now is literally referring to as a *fonder* era to remember…
God just beat spearmaster and when I beat Rivlet a few days ago it nearly broke me and just- AuGh I have so many thoughts and feelings about Five pebbles my god.

29:45 The way the music changes here, even if it's just slightly, it's like ... Ending. It's how an ending should be, or it's the realization that reality is.. how it is. Everything, is how it is, and that's how it's always going to be. How it is, is how it is. It could also be a metaphor for change. How the music starts off sounding the same for around a whole minute, until that part happens and it's that... gut wrenching feeling you get once something settles in. It's that... just.. weird, off-putting, climactic feeling. Indie games make me think too hard, meanwhile I also like to write poems or stories as a hobby, so there's that.
above moon you can see all the other iterators, far in the distance where its too far for any single purposed orginized creature as a mere slugcat to reach with their small size and being the bottom of the food chain. yet these iterators themselves are only connected via communications line and unable to physically meet eachother... how lonely would it be, being looks to the moon especially, being so close to another iterator, having a sky bridge connect with five pebbles but unable to meet him, caress him nor a hug or even a simple handshake... just a hologram to replicate a fraction of affection.
not only that. the harsh reality that all of rainworld's community knows is that they were made to be immortal like the ancients, they cannot even die. plenty of taboos make it hard for them to find a work around and other than that they are also recognised as a mere tool for ancients to find the triple affermative, moon herself said along the lines of "we're theorizing whats after the point of no return while having yet to pass it" basically trying to find a way how to ascend while having yet to understand ascension itself.
That's strangely deep but very accurate to the game's story. Many passing gods try through trial and error of solving something yet to be understood completely. The occasional slugcat interfering with the affairs.
@@pup1030 they could be but it would be a weird glitch. The times I’ve seen red sprits also line up with appearances in real life and I wouldn’t put it past Rare to add them, considering they already added green flashes
If you pay attention to Five Pebbles' backstory and how things develop with him, you realize how much the world screwed up with him. He's spoiled (but not respected) by half of the ancients as their "golden child", while the other half despises his existence even though he didn't even ask to exist in the first place. Then all the ancients leave him behind, exactly one of the final Iterators, transmuham AIs programmed to be totally obssessed with an impossible task. He has no choice on it. Over Rivulet's campaign you learn how much his fellow Iterators were important to him, specially Looks to The Moon and Seven Red Suns. Mentors, confidents, family. And a lot more things humans can't fully comprehend. Yet, his designed purpose drives his mind into a self-destructive pursuit of genetical engineering, and it's only after coming to a dead end that he's able to regain full control of his self.
i have this playing in my head whenever i say to myself "focus you have to write this", and then proceed to sit still staring at what im supposed to write
I love the swift, frantic beeping switching between two melodies, almost giving the illusion of one continuous one. Reminds me of a nifty little trick used in microcontrollers, where a binary pin switches on and off at a certain speed to make it seem like it's one continuous signal with an output somewhere between the two states of on and off. A binary system doing all it can to give off the illusion of analogue, of the inconsistent and uncertain continuous wave of reality.
That's one of the main questions, they say you just wake up when you die, but they don't specify if it's a new incarnation of you, or if your consciousness went to another dimension, also what happens when 2 enemies are constantly killing each other after they died? or if time keeps moving after you die and wake up, judging by the mechanics of Hunter, dying doesn't reduce the cycle count so it is certain to asume it's not advancing and is reverted after, also many things in the world get back to where they were before you started the cycle If each action you take can change the life of absolutely every living being what happens if per say you die but killed a lizard this cycle, when you respawn the enemies and their locations as well as your time before the rain is different, so you are technically not in the same place, so would you by any chance after X amount of cycles run to the same enemy and remembers you?, or once you die you are separated from any other branches that come out of the one you die?, and if so why is everything changing so drastically when you die as related to the experiences of other living beings? Also we know organisms die of old age and leave offspring's hence evolution and all that, but when you body reaches the point of no return where you are 100% guarantee you will die this cycle, does this means you will forever relived the same cycle for all eternity?, and if so why do we not see this happening to Hunter, I know he didn't technically died, in Downpour the "rot" took over his organism, but what happened to his consciousness, does the cycle doesn't need to be experienced to happen? So maybe Ruffles died in the "timeline" eventually and everything went along, to moon is just another one that dies of either old age or an accident BUT something weird that happens when you ascend someone as saint is that: If you ascend either Moon or pebbles AND you die in the same cycle, when you get back to them they stayed ascended, so this affects multiple "Timelines" not only the one you left behind so now the question is to what extend this applies to, you only remove them from all the new timelines you created and if so this brings into the table what we asked early, can you reencounter old creatures you found?, and if so how is the ascension related to this, and is the void fluid ascension the same as Saint ascension? if yes then if one of your others you ascends by void fluid wouldn't that delete you from all future or related timelines? like what happens to Pebbles and Moon? or is Saints ascension even more powerful than the void fluid ascension? One theory I have is could it be that from the very beginning you are destined to wander through an almost infinite amount of timeline until it so happens a "Saint" appears and ascends you and it ascends you so you die in all timelines of old age or maybe sickness or whatever, but now we reach into an impossibility, you there are infinite amounts of timelines, you are bound at any moment in your life to encounter a "Saint" and he ascends you, so you would die in all timelines since the very moment of you existence Another theory I have is that maybe all living beings with a consciousness are destined to become a Saint to someone's timeline, If you die millions, billions or trillions of times you may go insane but you can also reach a state of mind where you can get awaken as a Saint, as you slowly get out of your earthly attachments, as there is no point on keep getting attach to anything if every time you die you just wake up again, BUT there is also a catch remember when I said early that you don't need consciousness to be in the Cycles, and also if it is not a requirement aren't we all just made of cells?, it is confirmed that micro organism exists in RW and by Pebble's words they also experience the cycle, so does that means Saint ability can ascend multiple organisms all at once? or is only the perceived consciousness that ascends and the rest of you cells are stuck in all timelines dying because they don't received feedback and nutrients from your anymore I can be analyzing this for hours or days even!, but so far nobody has found a concrete solution to what the cycle is and even how it fully works, I think this is my favorite reason why I love rain world it gives you a lot to think about, it's amazing! TL;DR: We don't know, and have no way of knowing 😆
Moon doesn’t straight up say ruffles died, just that “the passage of time has taken them away.” It’s possible that, after such a long time by moon’s side, the rivulet set out on its own, either to the void sea or somewhere else.
@@manuel8123hola, aprovecho tu teoria para decir mis teorias, basicamente creo que todo ser vivo tiene su ciclo, como circulos, como las ondas de gotas de lluvia cayendo en un cuerpo de agua, pero no esta solo hay muchos otros ciclos sucediendo, muchos seres vivos coexistiendo, y al igual que las ondas de lluvia chocan entre si produciendo redultados diferentes igual pasa aqui, tu puedes matar un lagarto y no volvera a aparecer nunca, pero el sigue viviendo, el lagarto te puede matar a ti y nuncsa saldras de sus fauces ni llegaste a la puerta de karma, pero sigues viviendo, todos siempre despertamos, morimos como dormimos, siempre nos levantamos, "criaturita lo sientes?, continua, nuestros ciclos se volveran a encontrar" claramente moon sabe de esto, una vez que hables con el eco volveras y moon no se acordara de nada de eso, el ciclo existio alguna vez pero las ondas del eco lo deformaron tanto que te llevo al inicio del dia, basicamente es asi si existen multiples lineas de tiempo, todas ellas con su distinto resultado dependiendo de los seres que se hayan encontrado, pero para algunos su ciclo si que tiene un final, aquellos que alguna vez ascendieron definitivamente lo hicieron y no hay marcha atras, en todas las lineas de tiempo ellos dejaron finalmente de existir, eso es lo que creo que representar cuando aciendes, cuando ves a todos los que se parecen a ti, no son mas que distintas versiones de tu que al final al igual que tu ascendieron, por eso pasa lo mismo que pebbles y moon, aunque tus ciclos tambien pueden ser espirales, espirales que se expanden hacia alguna parte, en algun rato moriras, un gran ejemplo es el cazador, sus ciclos iban cuenta atras y es imposible escapar de eso, si o si moria o ascendia, despues de que ya no tenga tiempo cada vez que el sufre por la muerte inminente, cuando todo es rojo, los sonidos de los gusanos del vacio se hacen presentes para anunciarle que sus ciclos terminaron, pero no morira, su cuerpo caera pero el se levantara, renacera como otra criatura, aunque recordemos que murio por el turbo cancer, canonicamente salva a luna pero no se deja en claro si hacendio o almenos lo intento, "mis supervisores lo vieron irse al oeste" dice luna, por lo que si mueres tu cuerpo consumido por el cancer seguira ahi si vas como el gloton, o si asciendes no aparecera, aprovechando que hablamos del gloton, el tambien afecta a la linea de tiempo, todo apunta que no cumplio ni llego a five pebbles en el lore original, la puerta se mantuvo cerrada, pero si persistes puedes cambiar la linea de tiempo y abrirla, su ciclo afecto al de otros como las ondas de la lluvia, ahora volviendo a al ciclo, el fluido del vacio no es la unica manera de ascender, los antiguos podian beber tés para anular el cuarto simbolo de la gula, entonces significa que para ascender lo que se tendria que hacer es no ceder ante los instintos karmicos y simplemente no esforzarse, ser igual de lisos que una medusa que no se esfuerza y aun asi puede salir del ciclo, o de este caso de la red de pesca que los mantiene siempre, el ejemplo aqui seria el artifice, quedo clavado en su karma, tristemente el primero imposibilitando llegar a los demas, puede intentar subir pero es innecesario no lo lograra, ya hizo lo que hizo y sera un eco, yo creo que se convirtio en un eco debido a que aunque no se nos muestra su final se puede asumir que es como se convierten los ecos normalmente, y el mar del vacio decidio darle una pequeña recompensa por haber estado tan cerca, decidio mostrarle a sus dos hijos, el mar del vacio no genera cosas porsiacaso, lo que hace es hacerte una ilusion de lo que mas querias en tu vida, pero volviendo con los karmas, el no esforzarte muy seguro que hara que tu mueras ya que la forma de anular todos los karmas tambien implica abandonar la supervivencia, significa que moriras pero no reencarnaras, saldras del ciclo muy facilmente, esto es imposible para los animales debido a que actuan con su instinto, y nisiquiera les importa realmente, quiero decir a ti te gusta ascender?, al gloton lo ato su gula, al superviviente y monje pueden salir elegir vivir aunque en el lore no es canon, el artifice seguira con su violencia, el cazador puede ascender pero repito tambien puede ceder al cancer, y todos los demas tienen razones para seguir viviendo, tu quisieras dejar atras todo el hermoso y complejo que es ese mundo, los ecos no pudiero hacerlo y terminaron asi, pero mucho con esto, volviendo a la reencarnacion del cazador, seguramente reencarno como otro ser vivo, como un recien nacido, en esos momentos aun no cumple con los niveles karmicos por lo que al morir ira al rubicon, segun yo, el rubicon es el lugar donde las cosas materiales que absorve el fluido del vacio terminan, es la recta final para ascender, todos los que ascendiste terminaron aqui, tu les das el aventon ellos tienen que ascender subiendo, por lo que se podria decir que mas potente es el fluido del vacio mas que el rubicon, saliendo del tema el ciclo no siempre es solo un circulo, puede ser un espiral, una red que te tiene atrapado por siempre en el mismo lugar, un anillo, son muchas cosas, algo que hay que añadir que asi como hay distintos ciclos, tu conformas parte de un ciclo mayor, que a su vez conforma otro ciclo mayor, que a su vez conforma a el gran ciclo, millones de civilizaciones pasaron antes que tu y millones pasaran despues de ti, el polvo siempre cubrira las rocas y el vacio siempre las disolvera por eso todo se mantiene y el ciclo se repite, como algo adicional toda la aventura del santo es un sueño, el ya no puede volver a dormir, ya no puede morir, ya no puede despertar ni ya no puede ascender, el ascendio a pebbles y moon si pero es algo que paso desde mucho tiempo, se concentro tanto en ascender a todos que se esforzo demas y no logro ni salvarse, ascendio al unico que podia ascenderlo a el que ironico, quien se quede ahi y no se sumerja completamente en el mar se convertira en un eco, al igual que el artifice no pudo sumergirse mas, el sueño lo digo porque en la escena final se ve claro el simbolo del slugcat dorado de cuando te vas a acostar, el mismo simbolo que te indica que soñaras esa noche sucede siempre con el santo, repitira lo mismo una y otra vez mientras los carroñeros lo visitaran para que el les de su sermon para subir de karma, es una pena total.
After careful listening and paying attention, im pretty sure this is a heavily distorted remix of the title screen theme (dont be mean if everyone knew that already, i didnt aight)
i really love this. at first it just sounds like noise, but as you listen you can hear a tune behind it. as the song goes on it becomes more music-like, before inevitably going back to the noise you heard in the first place. its like bros constant cycle of thought, possibility, and negativity. i love this
i find it really cool how you can hear the main menu theme in this song after a certain point, which you can also hear in moon's theme. so I guess the main menu motif is kinda like an iterator motif? since we hear it in both iterator themes, and to my knowledge it isn't in any of the other tracks
I personally don't like Pebbles. I think he's very egotistical and selfish, and doesn't care who or what happens from his experiments, but Rivulet and Saint do make me feel for him, especially Saint. In Rivulet, his superstructure is completely consumed by rot, and he gives up the last thing he has for you to give to Moon. In Saint, his superstructure is completely gone, mixed with what used to be Shaded Citadel, The Leg, The Wall, etc. He's stuck outside in the daily freezing blizzards, hardly able to even speak anymore. The only entertainment he has is the pearls, and the only distraction from the bitter cold and sounds from the tortured creatures and fauna nearby is his music pearl, distorted and worn away, but good enough for him. He knows he's unable to die, so he just sits, waiting for someone to come along and take him away from his turmoil.
The rain is actually due to Iterators, Iterators use vast quantities of water as a coolant, which they then release as vapor. This vapor then falls back down in the form of the rain.
imagina que es una computadora acustica, que funciona por emision de sonidos, y que ahora parece emitir sonidos armonicos, como si la computadora te quisiera decir algo por medio de sus sonidos
o como si dentro de esa computadora, no hubiera ningún sonido y cada conección biologica o computo que hiciera generara un sonido, ahora imagina la capacidad de procesamiento de esa computadora del tamaño de una ciudad que hace todo ese sonido
Gamers, I am extremely glad to announce that after a few days of struggling I've finally reached 5Pebbles on my own It was hella hard But now I will steal some of his neurons for LTTM I know she needs em more, and this guy has too much anyways
ive finished the game twice and not once have i never visited moon, gameplay wise you just dont have to visit her but i probably will when i play as rivulet or spearmaster idk
