Breaking down the Lies of P Post Credits Scene 

Wizard of Oz, Alice in Wonderland, Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel, the possibilities are endless.

Jack and the Beanstalk, where the Beanstalk is like the Dark Tower...

Snow white, Rumpelstiltskin, Cinderella, Rapunzel, jack and the beanstalk, wonderland.

​​@@trace1506dont forget peter pan emagine fighting zombie(or something more unique) pirates😅

He could also be the Mad Hatter who was sentenced to death by the Queen of Hearts for “murdering time”. Which can be an euphemism of reaching immortality by stopping time.

I wouldn't mind the full deconstruction of him being a creep and forever haunting families alike for protection and having their first child life forever enslaved by him...to be, their plaything!? Disney only SKIMMED the dark parts of the Brother's Grimms stories and the like!

I'm just picturing the Wizard of Oz now where instead of singing, the main four just skip down the yellow brick road in awkward silence the whole trip

@rickytebbe hell yeah

depressed children cinematic universe

Thanks! Maybe RU-vid will give it a little push eventually but either way, it was just nice get my thoughts out. Yes, it's exciting! I read the books after watching the movie when I was a kid and was so surprised how much more there was to it. I've always wanted a good Wizard of Oz game and looks like we might finally get one. Can't wait to see where they go with it

I'd honestly be shocked if he doesn't at least come up at some point. He fits perfectly

It’s going to be so cool

That's a good point and funny that you say that, I had originally gone on a tangent about the colors in this video but cut it because it didn't really fit/seemed like it should be its own video. I had chalked the shoes up to those being her most recognizable but made the connection with her outfit seeming to be red too. My point was going was going to be since rubedo is last, Dorothy's game might not be next, but what the next few games are working towards(also four phases, four members in Dorothy's crew). Similar to how the MCU teased out the Avengers a few movies before delivering. I made a few other color connections with alchemy as well, so since there's at least two people interested, I'll put it together in a video soon I think

If the golden ergo is the third yellow stage it means two more stories were already harvested before the facts happening in Krat. When thinking of nigredo Dark Souls comes to mind but it's - clearly - not a timeless child story. Thoughts on that, clues?

I hadn't actually factored the golden ergo into it, that's an interesting idea I hadn't thought of. There could be similar cycle going on just for the ergo. Or maybe the golden ergo was birthed of someone who was at the phase when they died? Philosopher's stone created when someone who has completed Rubedo dies maybe? I was kind of weaving together the physical Magnum Opus and the Jungian stages of character transformation together. I was also tying each phase to the main four in Wizard of Oz. I was looking at it like all of Lies of P was nigredo with blue replacing black as it apparently does in the east according the Jung. Jung associates Confession with nigredo which is like right on the money for this game. There's a theme of truth associated with it but also decomposition which fits as well. P would be this phase and take the role of the Tin Man. Albedo: Illumination(character transformation), Cowardly Lion. There's a theme of deflating one's ego and facing the dark parts of yourself without being afraid. Part of the other reason I went Beast=Cowardly Lion. This fits him so well and I could see a separate game called like Pride of B with a white theme being made. Citrinitas: Education (character transformation), Scarecrow. Yellow/Gold. "Thoughts of A"? Rubedo: Transformation (character transformation), Dorothy. Red. "Rebirth of D"? Another color related thing being the Emerald Tablet is probably in the Emerald City

I don't know enough to comment on that and also I remember only vaguely how the golden ergo came to be in krat, but I'll revisit the lore of the game and do some reading on these topics for sure.

Thanks! You're about halfway then. You've got some tough challenges ahead. Good luck!

That's a really good catch! You might be on to something there

@@rickytebbe OK, so it appears that all alchemists have their noses replaced so it's nothing special about Test Subject 826.

Fairy tales are endless if search em up bro

Definitely could be. That's a theory I've seen and it would allow for sequels to be called "Lies of P" as well, even if we get a different playable character, so long as we're chasing after Paracelsus. Part of that also being that no one ever calls our character "Pinocchio" and we just assumed. He is called 'Pino' in the game files though. It's a good theory but I think we'll have to wait and see

@@rickytebbe I'll be right here waiting. Game is too good.

@@rickytebbeTHATS SUPER INTERESTING

@@ZaiDrizzleDrop I thought so too!

Honestly yeah, if skipping the DLC meant getting a sequel sooner, I'd much rather that.

there definitely is going to be (i mean the dev confirmed it) but also theres a strange stargazer right before the malum district that is never able to be interacted with in the game.

@@theeliteterrarian1888 right, those yellow stargazers and the comments that gemini makes about the rabbit hole we are not ready to go down through yet. Honestly Im getting hyped for the sequel or maybe they just were DLC baiting instead of sequel baiting with that post credit cutscene.

I'm hoping the DLC just continues the current story of Pinocchio, and that they save Wizard of Oz for it's own spin off game.

Definitely could be! Maybe we'll see

Lies of PP And that's _not_ a meme
