@Distant Space 1594's animation: • Video @Lo-pingOrg's synthesized dialogue: • Raziel Making Chocolat... Combined both versions with a little bit of editing.
The dialogue is so well written that it feels like it could be in-game. But it's such a stark contrast to the existential conversation the games pose that's somewhat baffling.
@@cvernon5256 On the contrary, "existential" is misused perfectly in the video above to capture the pseudo-philosophical purple prose. On its use in your comment, I will remain silent
I don’t know who these people are, and the last time I saw the term “LOK” was on new grounds. So I can only assume that the starfox fandom got bored with making mere porn
I can’t believe that, in almost 20 years, the closest thing I’ve seen to a legit sequel to this beloved franchise came in the form of a rugrats parody.
It's sad how open ended the last game was. There were enough loose ends for one final game of Kain restoring the pillars, ending the war with whatever the demon-esque race was called, killing the Wheel God and then having an epilogue scene of making sure Raziel's soul goes full circle still with whatever changes to history are made in the game and is eventually released from the Reaper.
Raziel: "Y-you WHAT?! I labored in torment to create this!" Elder God: "Do you suppose time stood still for *you* Raziel? Things have changed in your absence."
Kain: At last. I must say I'm disappointed in your progress. I imagined you would have finished sooner. Tell me, did it trouble you when you burnt the first batch? Raziel: Did it trouble you when you ate all of the second?
*Raziel:* Elder God, your feast is at hand. *Elder God:* Peace, Raziel. Your culinary mission is in vain, for my hunger has proven a mere phantom and has subsided unsated.
*My mind snapped. A fruitless task, set up by the Elder God himself to further torment me. I scream as loudly as I could, for the pain was unbearable.* ... I never watched the show, but I feel like that's how it would go vibe-wise.
The original meme: Didi: Stu, what are you doing? Stu: Making chocolate pudding. Didi: It's four o'clock in the morning, why on earth are you making chocolate pudding? Stu: …Because I've lost control of my life. This Masterpiece: Kain: *I knew what black hour this was as foretold by Mobius himself. The snake had made it clear to me what it might portend. I beheld Raziel, awake, and no explanation for this state. * Kain: Raziel, what dark pact have you allowed yourself to become entangled in? Raziel: I have found myself shackled to this fell task. Compelled, unreluctantly to create a concoction of chocolate. A dessert, fit for mortals. Kain: It is 4 past the witching hour, and the cock is soon to crowe. What could possibly posses you to create chocolate pudding at this un-godly state? Raziel: *Kain's question cut through my soul like a silver dagger enchanted with the darkest of magics. In an instant, my mind was flooded with torturous visions of all that had lead me to this abyssmal state of torment. Twisting that infernal knife with the unbearable knowledge that now, as ever, I was powerless to escape my terrible destiny. The stirrs of my spoon mimicked the eternal and unchanging revolutions of the wheel of fate. Binding me and every other being in existence to a single, immutable path. And while most of the wretched souls tied to that abominable wheel were blissfully unaware of their existential imprisonment, I was not so fortunate. No, I had been shackled with the burden of knowledge. It was all I could do to keep my spirit from falling into total despair, as I turned to reply; * Raziel: Because I have lost control- *Suddenly, I stopped! Unable to utter the remaining words. Because I had lost control of my life? But how could I loose something that I had never truly possessed? Suddenly, laughter, from the other room, mocking me, mocking all that I'd endured, and that I'd yet to endure. Mocking existence itself. The rest of the world fell away. I could not percieve anything except that laughter. That horrible, horrible laughter. I could not bear it. Despair overwhelmed me. The spoon fell to the floor, and I with it. I hoped this would be the final torment. That the horror of my existence would proove to strong withstand, and my mind would shatter and disappear into final oblivion for all time.* I love this so much
@@buttpiratesbuttpirate5913 Yes... it should, but I noticed some spelling errors in the transcript, best you fix them before hallowing them with your most secure of documents and treasures within the treasury
@HiddenEvilStudios Please, they are not even close to being this eloquently. XIV sounds like old shakespearean, but that's all. Just a dialect rather than digging up the most obscure of vocabulary to create poetry.
".... Tumbling, burning with white-hot frustration, I plunged into the depths of the depression. Unspeakable pain... relentless agony... time ceased to exist... only this torture... and a deepening hatred of the hypocrisy that damned me to this chore. ... An eternity passed, and my hand-cramps receded, bringing me back from the precipice of burnout. The stirring had destroyed me... and yet, dessert was ready."
Never in my life did I ever imagine that Legacy of Kain characters would be performing the most famous Rugrats scene. xD I love it. Makes me wish there was a Legacy of Kain animated series. ^^
Maybe on Netflix... From the same studio that did Castlevania... With Charles Dance as Kain... Not that I've put entirely too much thought into it or anything ahaha
@@TalonsUmbra "Compelled unreluctantly" is also a great expression. It's the most grim and deterministic way of saying "I just felt like it" I've ever heard. XD
“How many eons can you bear to languish here? The egg yolks must be whisked, all the sugar, milk and cocoa are boiled in the cleansing agony of the saucepan. This is the engine of life - the purifying rhythm of the universe to which all souls are irresistibly drawn. Yours is a necessary and noble function, Raziel.”
This was already one of the best things I've seen all month. The voice AI was dead on, and the dialogue, subject matter aside, sounded like it came straight from the games. Then Ozar Midrashim kicked in. And then I saw the Elder God in the living room. This is art. This is god-damned art.
"I have found myself shackled to this fell task compelled unreluctantly to create a concoction of chocolate. A dessert fit for mortals" is now my new favourite line ever.
Kain was delectified, The Clans tell Caramels of him Few know the chewth. He was flavortal once, as were we all….Chowever, his chomptemt for chewmanity drove him to create me and my barthren.
@@TheSteveExperiment Raziel never ceases to amaze us with his superior inner monologue..wether it be his reflections on his past/current list of frailties,or in this case ..chocolate .. __________________________________ Drinks
Vorador: "You're a wretched excuse for a baker!" "I've been watching you since you immerged from that accursed kitchen. Strange that you're arrival coincided with the dinner spoiling!"
Literally me when I find myself cooking at some ungodly hour ordained by powers malign and overwhelming even though I must rise with the loathed dawn to serve masters who care not for my dignity as a living, sapient entity, but only my ability to help them produce profit for their fell overlords who my brethren retail workers refer to in hushed, venomous whispers as "corporate"...Aye corporate...The horrific gnarled elders whose inexplicable, cruel, and irrational whims seem as capricious that of a spoiled toddler...
The voice acting for Raziel sounded exactly how he should be, and the writing for his lines, man, it’s pure essence from Soul Reaver. Gimme more of these please! 😂
@@Syenthros All the better. I don't think it tramples anyone if an AI does the voicework, at least in this case. Id be down for animated or live honestly
i kinda both interested and brutally despise AI generators but like AI in gaming where a NPC acts and has same advantages as a player or memes im fine whit that but then its used to manipulate people and making a quick buck thats then the line is crossed
*Kain:* Thirty years hence, I am presented with a dilemma... let's call it a two-sided spoon. If the spoon falls one way, I sacrifice myself and thus restore the Pudding... but as the last surviving cook in Nosgoth, this would mean the annihilation of our species... Moebius made sure of that. If the coin lands on the reverse, I refuse the sacrifice and thus doom the Pudding to an eternity of collapse. Either way, the game is rigged. *Raziel:* We agree then that the Pudding is crucial and must be restored. *Kain:* Yes, Raziel, that is why we've come full-circle to this place. *Raziel:* So after all this, you make my case for me. To end this stalemate, you must die so that a new Stirrer can be born. *Kain:* The Pudding don't belong to them, Raziel... they belong to us. *Raziel:* Your arrogance is boundless, Kain. *Kain:* There's a third option, a monumental secret hidden in your very presence here. But it's a secret you have to discover for yourself. Unearth your destiny, Raziel. It's all laid out for you here. *Raziel:* You said it yourself, Kain... there are only two sides to your spoon. *Kain:* Apparently so, but suppose you throw a spoon enough times... suppose one day, it lands on its edge.
@@redmagelala no, they're both alive as far as I know. Tony Jay died a long time ago. Also, I think the actor who voiced Vorador passed away a couple of years ago, but I may be wrong here.
@@redmagelala they are both alive, Simon Templeman(Kain) is fairly young compared ot them ost of the cast even, Michael bell(Raziel) is in his 80's tho.
This is perfect in every way. The voices, the dialog, the animation... We're "2 people familiar with unreal engine" away from a truly brilliant fan game that the IP holder hits with a cease and desist 2 weeks before I find out about it.
There and nowhere, soon and never, as well. Somethings are just meant to be final. Much as it pains me to say and admit that, it's been too long and I'm not even sure he's even alive anymore.

Thumbling, burning in blue hot fire, I plundged into the depths of the kitchen. Unspeakable pain, relentless agony. Time cease to exist. Only this torture of stirring the chocolate
This is incredible, never did I think my childhood would be resurrected in such glorious fashion. I do hope Raziel will have the honor of tasting the pudding before his lord. And for his transgression, he will have earned a new kind of reward... the munchies.
Such perfect mimic of the game's writing and speech patterns xd This is the perfect parody People at work won't get why i'm laughing at a weird dude making pudding.
This is an undeniable masterpiece, I would love to see more parody AI videos like this, especially of Legacy of Kain because it's such an underrated franchise.
