Chants of Sennaar Part 2 - the second floor of the Tower of Babel awaits us, bringing the Warrior class and their unique language and culture. Why do they keep the devotees out? What are they guarding? We can only know once we translate the glyphs.

@@aynonymos It takes a minute but the grammar is basically just changing SVO to OSV and a couple punctuation quirks. Honestly the bards layer got my hopes up for more interesting languages later but then it was right back to just being "match the vocabulary".

@@boyo7918 True, though it does make a lot of sense why they didn't. The Alchemist's section was slightly less on language and more traditional puzzle solving and the Exiled's section was very lore heavy. Adding another sentence structure would have just muddied those. But honestly, stretching the segments out to allow for new structure would be worth it. Imagine if the Alchemists get rid of unnecessary words for efficiency and the Exiles are missing a core concept we have, like individuality as they see everyone as part of the same over-being leading to "I" and "You" being missing?

There's another game a lot like this called Heavens Vault. It's story driven with lots of narration in regular language. You are an archeologist in a future nebula that travels between moons and ruins via a cosmic river that you navigate on. You find tons of lost history and slowly decipher the language. Very Treasure Planet esque, with less monsters and more robots.

@@Green24152 currently playing heavens vault, there is confirmation of words, tough I dont know about the requirements to confirm/throw out a meaning. Did that maybe just got added later?

@AstroHog 7 ай бұрын

The words do get confirmed. You just have to find the same word several times and have it make sense (then it gets checked off and can't be changed) instead of having it given to you after having all the correct words on a page. The real difference is heavens gate giving you 4 likely words to choose from and no picture where this game gives you a picture or action with no multiple choice. Heavens gate also gives you some hints by talking to Huang and he'll make comments while also telling you about incorrect interpretations you've made for words. Both games do it well

I like how carry and lay are almost mirror images, but since carry has the vertical line, they can’t be confused for each other, like if a warrior were dyslexic. Also, notice that their locations - library, fortress - are triangles. Arrive, as a verb, has the angle on the bottom, but being an upside down triangle, it suggests a relation to location.

@dinojack5567 7 ай бұрын

TRANSLATIONS BELOW, READ AFTER WATCHING WHOLE VID Most of these Tyler figures out, I'm just reciting it so you can rewatch it while understanding it all -At the start the banners say 'Duty' and the big symbol which Tyler thought was 'protect' is probably 'wall' -The comm panel at 2:30 says "You impures cannot go; you impures do not create instruments" -Statue at 3:40-4:30: side 1 is "warriors push (out) impures", side 2 is "warriors protect chosen" and side 3 is "warriors carry (out their) duty" -Box scene at 6:00 is simply "carry big crate, carry small crate, warrior push trolley" etc -Dudes at 10:55 says "warriors wait ___(?) chosen (plural), impures await death" and "bellman awaits bottle" LOL -Thats really it SPECULATION! Tyler is missing 3 symbols, "protect/wall" is one, another is the upside-down triangle on the sword at 10:15 (Tyler guessed only/long/arrive) and the last is the seal on the paper in the observatory at 11:35 (Tyler guessed science/knowledge). The empty notebook page has a treasure chest, a big wall and a guy shouting. The building is 'protect/wall' 100% (fortress? barrier??), the sword symbol could be the guy shouting (call for? sing???) and I guess the stamp on the paper could be the treasure chest? That one doesn't make much sense...
