Something i just realized; The tall ones the Player gets to meet in the game are their spirits/ghosts after the godslayer killed their original body. When receiving the gifts of the tall ones, they always lead the player to the site where their own body lays-

Loved the summary of the story, great video! When reading trough the entire pathfinder storyline, it really seems like the pathfinder wasn't always a bad guy. Here's my interpretation of his story: It really sounds like he actually wanted to do good in the world, finding a path to follow that leads people to true happiness. However by wanting to find a new path he was questioning the tall ones, which leaded to him being imprisoned. Being in prison because of his beliefs made him resentfull towards the tall ones, so when he broke out he started to move forward his plan in a more violent manner. Still, he just wanted to find happiness for the entire world. Skip forward to where he found the spirit mask. As you said those who are not worthy will never see the world the same. I think this is the point where the pathfinder went from anti-hero to villain. He went mad and decided that he had to kill the world to remake it. However despite all of this he still cared for his followers, even when he aquired the sun sword he was planning to bring all of his dead followers back to life after his plan succeeded. Even after the final bossfight, his last line is "the people need a true path to happiness"(or something like that). This proves that even in his monsterous form, he did actually care about his people. He wanted to give them happiness, even if he had to become a monster in order to do it. It's kinda sad actually...

Yeah that's a really good interpretation of it! I really like that! Yeah it definitely did come across that he wanted to help and didn't see himself as evil. I wish they had some more information about him before he was in prison to give some more clarity there but you could be correct! I definitely think the whole story was kind of sad, even all the souls that you interact with that were happy to help but sacrificed or didn't want to sacrifice thier lives.

I loved how the story slowly showed, that the darkness of one man’s heart and him enforcing his view on others, can ruin the whole world. The pathfinder’s quest starts as a quest to help his people. But cruelty and him focusing only his quest, twists him and he slowly becomes a demon of death and destruction. One spirit at the beginning even doubthed he was ever a human, so horrible he was. Also just one small thing: I always thought the fortress-battle with the monks, happened after the Godslayer conquered the previous plateaus, because the spirits there speak about they being the last warriors left to fight the mad army. The Godslayer’s soldiers are also showing the simpthons of the corruption, fighting like animals and without humanity.

Just finished the game today, this video is masterfully done. (spoilers) There's no doubt in my mind that Abzû and The Pathless are connected. If Basilla was just an easter egg, then how would you explain the identical room we see the tall ones in during the Godslayer boss battle? Giant Squid is definitely trying to create a large story. I think it's a beautiful thing, Abzû and The Pathless are both amazing games, and connecting them makes it an even greater story. Hopefully they continue it, they're such an underrated studio.

The Shark tall one seems to be some kinda allusion to ABZÛ, (god what a game), so it seems like they’re maybe tryna do a linked world between all the different worlds & stories they’re portraying. perhaps the body of water we see the Hunter arriving to the island from is the same ocean we explore in ABZÛ?? excited for ur next video on this!

There's so much to discover and find, it was a really fun way to piece together the story, but it really did make it hard to keep track since you can't guarantee the order you find them in and I'm pretty positive there are messages as he made his way up as the Pathfinder and then different messages back as he came down as the Godslayer!

In ancient cultures giant skeletons of animals (which were actually dinosaurs) were thought to be mythical creatures. The story of Kumo having giant friends is simply this culture’s myth about the giant bones.

Can't wait for the next video bro! Just finished the game at 100% and cam straight to youtube to find this dope video! I hope and strongly believe there will be a next pathless game. As for the lore i believe that the Hunter/Secret Elder is actually the same. I think that she is a god herself given that she doesn't take damage like fall damage, attack damage from the boss battles, and even the in the cutscenes she's mainly staggered or stunned. Her bow is the sister to the sun sword and only those "worthy" are able to wield the most powerful weapons in that realm and the spirit realm. She's like a pathless avatar restoring balance. Toward the end (trynig not to spoil it for others) the pathfinder says that she should not be able to withstand the eagle mothers curse and ask who she was angrily while at the same time she again no matter how many times she gets hit where others like the tall ones have died she doesn't given you can get knocked out the ring but you don't actually die and have to restart.

Hey thank you so much, I really appreciate the comment and the kind words! That's a really interesting thought and I like that idea! That would definitely explain some of the gameplay elements for sure, although if that were the case I'm not sure where they could take another game! haha! I'm assuming you saw the secret ending you get for finishing the game with 100% (don't want to spoil, but if you didn't see that ending, you might not think she's immortal) Also thanks for the reminder, I actually posted my new video trying to see if the Pathless was connected to Abzu or Journey in any way a few days ago, just updated the description with the link, or you can find it hear!

@@UnbrokenOdds For sure man! I saw the secret ending and my thoughts on that is maybe she is a demi or perhaps its coincidence that the eagle mother is able to protect her. Another point is that for one of the lantern you find under the bridge you have to stand in place of a statue which to me was like yeah she gotta be a something special. And last but certainly not least. The pathfinder/God slayer said that the eagle looked to the hunter for protection. Very interesting concepts. I will definitely check out your other videos man and I saw the connection video as well really well done will definitely sub and show love!
