Thank you very much! Happy you enjoyed! Yes, it's been mentioned once or twice. Lol. It was a good thing to learn and it's always a good day when you learn something new! I've since learned my lesson and corrected the pronunciation for my subsequent videos on Dead Cells. Thanks for taking the time to share the correct pronunciation with me! Really appreciate it! And thanks for watching!

Better late than never? Lol. Thanks for watching!

Tbh this vid made me immediately buy the game now And I have to say I don’t regret the purchase

There coming out with another dlc soon

Yup! I'm excited for it! Don't think it's going to add too much to the overall story, but will help flesh out and deepen the world further! I'm going to try and make a video about the information that came out with Bad Seed before that DLC comes out too!

@@studio-cultist9622 I just got it too, and I love it. But this video made me want to complete it all the way!!!

to be honest. most of the population is dead so whats the point

It's useless anyway since the whole kingdom is literally dead and the survivor don't care about the infection anymore

But didnt the beheaded lose all his memories, so he wouldnt have remembered he was king either way

@@firstnamelastname3173 Once you posess the body of the King, the beheaded refers to it as its "original host".

What could he save? Only 1 other person from the kingdom still lives, the time keeper. All it’s inhabitants are dead or mutated.

The fact you even got to the boss makes me think that there’s no more gudder you can git

It’s random

@@mohammednajl5950 ah

@Maximus torr ...git gud existed way before hollow knight

@Maximus torr I mean, maybe, because there is a HK easter egg in the game, but I can't say for sure

We only lack the time warping irl for us to live in Dead Cells! Hooray...

Just throw him on the pile of “pretty bad kings that kinda fucked things up” along with nearly every king from dark souls and the pale king.

It’s just hollow knight

@@shin_taps having played both, I can tell you it differs from HK certainly from a gameplay perspective. Undoubtedly less so from a lore perspective, but they are still their own games.

Yup that's it

and whenever you do, its always a good ending. Im glad for once its a game where you start as the asshole and end as the asshole

@@justyouraveragehumanbeing7411 I don’t really think he was that much of an asshole. He tried to save his people by trying to contain the disease until a cure was found. But then something out of his control happened and the disease continued to spread and out of desperation he grew paranoid and made laws that were inhumane because in his head that could be the kingdom’s last hope at living through. Well he was wrong and people didn’t really like that and then the rest happened and he got labelled as the villain. Unless i missed a crucial part of the video for being sleepy as hell.

@@xornedge8204 nah you got it. Though like a man once said “the road to hell is paved with good intentions” He may not have started as the villain. But the virus and the events preceding the story pushed the king towards unintentional villainy. So looking at just the game. We do indeed start and end as an asshole.

To be honest if you were king and lived in a devestated world like that, you would eventually also be like fuck this I am out, negligence does not make you evil.

you don’t often play as the villain? What bout OMORI?

I couldn't even get past bc1, so I figure I've finished about 1/7th of the game 😅

@@TheRealProfwalrus 1/8, after you defeat Collector for the 1st time you will need to defeat him at the 2nd time, still in 5BCs

Watch on, then! I hope you enjoy! :) Thanks for watching!

I had 170 hours clocked in the game when I uploaded the video. Now not ALL of that was gameplay, but there was certainly a ton of time spent on this. Lol. Around the 50-60 hour mark, I thought about giving up, but I had already spent so much time on it that I couldn't just walk away. Glad I stuck with it. Haha. Thanks for watching!

@@SquatchGamingChannel 170 hours is still honestly a very good time to get all of the story by yourself. Good job!

I’m at 30 hours and still haven’t beaten the king so...I mean, I don’t play it seriously, but after watching this video, I realized how serious this game is

@@_inSight__ lmao i only managed to get my first boss cell after 50 hours. Ive got 80 on record now and am STILL struggling to get my 2nd boss cell. Maybe my grandchildren can finish the game for me

@@0TheJigsawKiller0 I’ve put maybe 10 or so more hours into the game and have finally reached the Hand a couple times. I still get swept by the Hand tho, and I bet it will be probably another 10 or so hours before I start putting up a fight.

The beheaded(king) in the trailer: funni purple fire head guy The beheaded(king) in the game:

By the looks of it, it wasn't the first time HE drank the Panacea. As stated earlier, HE became Blob due to the result of an Incomplete Panacea. And as we can see, those side effects were true. Lust for violence, loss of empathy. The Panacea truly came with a great price. After all, what is a human if it isn't _humane_ ?

@@rainedans8684 Nooo. It's heavily implied that the King's current state is a result of the Alchemist/collector using the data/research he got from the Apostates and undying shores to turn him into a homunculus. The implication seems to be that the King was so desperate to save his life after his own infection by the Malaise that he went to the Alchemist for help, and turning him into a homunculus was the only solution he had. The apostates performed their own research on the cells and it's all but stated that the homunculi are the end-result of that research.

Eternity

I'll be honest. That kind of ending feels incomplete. At some point, something or someone has to step in before this endless loop destroys everything. I mean, if the lighthouse ending means anything, he's probably gonna travel to the rest of the world and begin a new cycle of death and rebirth.

Thanks, man! I worked really hard on this one, so hearing the appreciation means a lot! Thanks for watching!

Jesus loves us all that's why he died for our sins.

Perfect timing! Hopefully this helps fill in some of the gaps of the story for you! If you want any tips on gameplay, I'd be happy to offer some help too! Feel free to reach out! Thanks for watching! :)

Omg your right! I just saw this came out a month ago I just started playing lol

He got the right theory for the wrong game

@@mohamednail1707 BuT THat’S jUsT a THeOrY! A gAMe ThEoRY!!! THaNKs FoR WaTcHInG!

Self awareness.

It’s like laughing at your fashion sense from ten years ago.

He didn't know he was the king back then

@@Padre_des_los_penitentesthey might be thinking of seeing the statue in the promenade of the condemned _WHILE_ wearing his Royal armor. He says the same thing he did when he just the beheaded

@@I_am_box the 2 things change when you wearing King outfit is HoTK and The Collector, no more change when you wearing that outfit

hollow knight reference 101

shaw

It's much harder than dark souls.

@@vegitoblue3613 🧢

@@vegitoblue3613 i disagree, dead cell give us more advantage to face the enemy than dark souls

@@ahmadMacoofficialchannel Heya, might be a bit late for me to respond to this. Thing is, dead cells builds up difficulty a LOT and dark souls kinda just fucks you over and keeps you around that stage of difficulty, maybe increasing, but definitely not as drastically as dead cells. So what the other guy said it's actually kinda understandable, in dark souls once you get used to it and after tens of hours, probably going into a hundred you'll be able to breeze through the game fairly nicely, all be it still difficult. While in dead cells it will take you easily over 100-150 hours just to get to the most difficult point and dead cells is a LOT more chaotic than dark souls. Thing is, if you can't keep track of every little detail in dead cells you are dead, while in dark souls it's kinda just knowing your timings and the boss attacks, that's where the difficulty debate becomes problematic. Dark souls - few enemies, but difficult Dead cells- hordes of enemies, varying attacks, a bit less difficult for each one. Also keep in mind it's not like you can space out the tons of enemies, they all teleport after you. If you haven't played up to 5BC I'd recommend going to watch someone play it, it's absolute madness. Oh and also, dead cells is more punishing, you basically don't get to heal aside from your starting pots for the entire run, so while individual fights may be easier each mistake costs you a lot more, since you're not resetting the chamber, you're on the edge of resetting an entire run.

Ehh not really. The game goes fast once you get past that point

@@godfrey4461 except you die 10 times in the castle or brewery and after that another 10 times at the hotk

Welcome to Dead Cells

@@Willimann game took me 3 times to beat the hand..but oh it’s not over...I love this game I purchased the android version, and I bought and own the $130 prisoners edition on switch...and the new dlc is kicking my ass.

Managed to reach the throne room, but I got decimated by The Kings Right Hand. That man and his f*cking attacks are so overwhelming, coupled with the ice panels above the spike pits and the death banners, its so much that it becomes headache inducing. Still love the game tho.

You could also take this as “his boring voice made me fall asleep”

I touched on Mama Tick in my Bad Seed video, but not sure if I’ll do Conjunctivius. I’ll definitely be doing the new DLC when it comes out in the next few days! Thanks for the suggestion! And thanks for watching!

Ah yep, now you can minus 1 unanswered question by DLC The Queen and the sea

This is what I was thinking. I am glad someone brought this up. Underrated post for sure

Exactly xD is waaaay too hard for the average and even a hardcore player to get experience all of this :c

I claimed the 2nd and with 3C I cannot reach The Concierge 😭

@@Mirouku86 like actually bro. Getting 3 is so difficult for me. I usually at least try to make it to Concierge and beat him but it's always after that in Stilt, or High peak where it just seems impossible. Especially without healing.

Nice, man! You going to go all the way? Thanks for watching!

The key is to just git gud lol

Lol this comment aged well xD

Lol

Really loved the part where he says it’s celling time and started to dead all over the place

More would be nice, but I'm happy these reach as many people as they do! I love being able to teach people stuff and if these help some people understand the story of a game they enjoyed or their favorite game, then these accomplished what I wanted! Thanks for watching, man! Happy to hear you enjoyed! :)

I assumed that red was showing the brutality skill, purple for tactics, and green for survival. The skills usually correspond with what the king says

thats the entire point of the game..... its repetitive and endless just like The Beheaded's deaths

@@Sitaramin I just wanted to know how the story ends tho.

Uncanny coincidence, huh? Lol. Thanks for watching! Hope it helped!

I dont think is coincidence because happened to me too.its because youtube algorithm propably.science man is amazing.also this game is amazing and the storyxD

Thanks for watching! Believe me, I know the feeling, but you've made it further than me - I was stuck on 1 Red Cell... Hahaha. If you want some tips, I'd be happy to share some! Feel free to reach out. :)

I cant even finish 2 cells

Happy to hear it helped! Let me know if you have any more questions and I can try to answer them for you! Thanks for watching! :)

Thanks a lot, man! Happy to hear you enjoyed! I was actually surprised there wasn't more stuff out there for this. Just an opportunity for this though, I suppose! Lol.

thank you! i was legit wondering who would dislike this video and why.. makes sense.. now we wait for the full lore video with this ending and new info brought to light

Dont you need like the 2nd cell to even be able to fight the giant?

@@leonchen5284 Made an error in the post, mb

​@@leonchen5284 nope

Thanks for watching! Happy to hear you enjoyed! Not one by me, but I’m sure there’s one out there somewhere!

there are some runs when you find him dead inside his prison cell, smashed by one of the teleporting coffins, i think. And his prison cell was full of teleporting coffins, so i can only guess that maaaybe he was working on a way to use those to escape, thus resulting in his invention(?) of the teleporting rune? Which we stole. :"D

I don't have any plans on it for now, but never say never! It could be something that's made some time in the future! Thanks for watching!

Awesome! Thanks so much! Will be another one for Dead Cells coming out soon (hopefully)!

Haha. It's a mixed bag. I think it has a place as a player. Trying to get shots for this was a nightmare though. I played for like 3 hours one night to get a 15 second shot... Thanks for watching!
