The Stupendium and I have now also made a MINECRAFT Vs LEGO RAP BATTLE! Who would win? Watch here to find out: th-cam.com/video/t5Ir5app9l0/w-d-xo.html
I think that Faith side had better lyrical composition and delivery from a technical view, but the substantive meaning of the Order side was more compelling and powerful (though certainly not kind) if seen through the eyes of someone in that world.
@ThePassiveChicken Well it starts as standard government. Guards as police, prisons to keep criminals locked away. Propaganda is where it starts getting a little iffy, but you run the city as a dictator either way, so it's no big deal
Game wise, Religion is really good for stopping hope drops and discontent rises with sermons and the permanent boosts from temples and houses of prayers. Order is good for helping stop protests. However, later on they both become similar deadly forces. Executions, beatings and on and on. I do like that Hope is no longer a problem however.
I just noticed that the images in the chorus change for the 1st to the 2nd chorus. For Faith it starts off with a church with stained glass depicting 2 members in purple cloaks praying for a better future with the figure with the Faith symbol on them being the leader/priest (aka The Stupendium). In the 2nd chorus the church becomes more cult like with the stained glass switching to many members looking towards the priest, who now wears a white and golden clothing no longer wearing the Faith symbol as he becomes the center of the religion. For Order it starts with motivational posters/propaganda telling people to work hard, earn their food, and that the Captain(aka Dan Bull) will guide them. In the 2nd chorus the propaganda become more like that of a dictator with one having “Our Captain Sees” and the background becomes more militant. There are now flags with Order’s symbol on them, a watch tower has been built looming over the buildings, and there are blood stains on the snow with “Disloyal” written with on a wall in blood.
Yes, exactly. The first verse represents the good part of both Order and Faith, where Faith unites people and guides them towards a higher purpose, and Order protects people against threats and unites them in work. The second verse is when they devolve into dictatorship/theocracy respectively.
the second church stained glass is actually the orderly leader being chained by the church goons, but the worshipping leader as a god would be a good idea
The funny part is in the game the faith creates more efficient workers for a load of professions (medical tents, artisans, preachers) and order just gives better resource extraction rates (wood, coal, and metal). I also think that I would rather live in a theocracy than a totalitarian regime.
I really like how, in the second part of the chorus, the stained glass evolves to turn the Captain into a god figure, while the propaganda signs, more inspiring at first, reinforce more authoritarian images, with a home being marked in blood as disloyal. Really nice touch.
in the first part of the chorus also has that detail. the preacher in the middle of the stained glass is the looks like the captain in the posters in the first chorus. the second chorus is just a much more noticeable detail.
The church glass? In the second part it turned in to the founder being publicly executed with the chains around his wrists in the other two windows, showing him being a saint and a martyr for his couse. Maybe I didn't get something, but yea, the posters did turn from motivating to big brother is watching.
"every second spent doing public penance couldve been spent putting up the tents." The annoyance in his voice as he says the end of that line makes it hit so well.
@@TheStapleGunKidI do think there is. First of all, the statement itself: "every second each of us has spent, completing public penance could've been invested putting up the tents" is a very stupid thing to compare, because not only is public penance useful as it rehabilitates criminals. It also compares two things that aren't meant to be compared. Setting camps isn't really comparable to public penance. A better argument would be comparing imprisonment to public penance where one imprisons people while the other rehabilitates them I still like the lyrics but saying that it's somehow the winning line and that there's no argument against it is kinda weird. TLDR: 1. Public penance is useful as it literally rehabilitates criminals making them productive again, while discouraging others to do crime. 2. Public penance and "setting up tents" is a dumb thing to compare in the first place.
@@vbnv-oz8bj Oh boy, we have an edge lord. I get it. It's annoying that your parents woke you up to go to church all the time as a kid. Anyways, back to the topic at hand. Okay, so I was originally just thinking we were talking about in-game mechanics. But if we're going by real-life prison, then that really depends on the prison, isn't it? Cuz there are a lot of statistics that back up that prisons often don't give much of a crap in rehabilitation, and although rehabilitation might be good in some countries, it definitely isn't in most countries, especially in a fictional setting in frostpunk. Recidivism is far too common, and most drug abusers that are put in prison only roughly 15% of them actually recover from addiction. Meanwhile, public penance (aka poisoning their minds), tell criminals and offenders to apologize to the hurt parties and to God and are given the chance to repent from their misdeeds. Now, this method obviously has a lot of flaws, but I find it dumb to completely discredit its utility, especially when the world is set in frostpunk, where a belief of a higher being is probably far more effective at keeping people in control without the use of force. The fact that God is fake or not is irrelevant when the teachings itself aren't even harmful in moderation and just equally as harmful when compared to order if things become fanatic.
@@vbnv-oz8bj”poisoning their minds” makes them easier to control, which is practical for a setting where the phrase “if one if us falls out of line, we all do” is the truth.
Just like in game, you both have won for different reasons. On one hand, Stupendium's verses had that divine inspiration that builds hope and morale, whereas your verses bear that stern grit that instills purpose and crushes dissent. Fantastic work, the both of you! Glad 11bit decided to help you with this one!
The end of both is pessimistic, with the causes of Faith and Order no longer existing to restore hope in a better tomorrow but instead serving themselves, the transformation from a cause meant to inspire and comfort to one only committed to keeping the people in line, crushing hope in favor of devotion or obedience.
@@edwintrinidadperazacaraban4650 an Ice age yes but if the sun really is cooling then it is futile struggle just a matter of time, human perseverance can only take you so far
weird crossover thought but i just read the third book in the Mistborn series by Sanderson, and, without spoiling too much, had to think of that specific line A LOT
Who won and why was it me? See the alternate ending on The Stupendium’s channel here: th-cam.com/video/BW7EI8jpAwU/w-d-xo.html Also… this is only the FIRST collaboration between the two of us. More to come...
I’ve been waiting literally years for this collaboration... and it was worth the wait 😻 Can’t wait for more collabs from you two artists! And obviously Dan, it’s because Cheltnam does not accept defeat.
I've been working on a D&D 5e campaign setting inspired by Frostpunk. I knew I was going to have some NPCs based and Dan Bull and Stupendium, started on rough designs and then they go and realise this gem. Definitely have a better picture now for them.
@@the_protectorof_smols3563 So like Ebberon, it's said in that world someone could manifest divine spells from belief in their shoelace if they truly believed it could grant them divine spells. Perhaps both followers of Order and Faith could manifest divine magic, Order as a sort of 'Will of the Law' justification, Faith believing it to be literally divine.
@@paulmahoney7619 yeah kinda like that but remember that the belief has to be wholehearted and sincere otherwise your own subconscious will probably fuck up your ability to cast hell you can use that as a fucked up way to test for spys and "nonbelievers" if you felt so inclined
I love how the two versions ultimately become near identical in the final verse, showing that, however different faith and order may be, they are, taken to extremes, the same: bloody-minded tyrants who kill all that oppose them and crush all hope beneath unceasing obedience and devotion. The jackboot and the theocrat, two sides of the same coin.
@Quodlibeta Except the theocrat will freeze because his belief has a weak impact on reality, while the jackboot survives by optimizing the people for the betterment of the entire colony.
@Quodlibeta Part of that is because they aren't meant to last forever. We design stuff so it's easy to tear down if we want to build something new on top of it. If we wanted to we could build something that lasts hundreds of thousands if not millions of years, but we don't because that would be way more expensive and would be more difficult to replace with something even better later on. They built their stuff that way because they didn't have modern knowledge and technology and because they were planning on their religion lasting pretty much forever. If anything that is indicative of how religion causes stagnation rather than advancement. Such as how Christianity caused technological and scientific stagnation if not outright regression in a lot of cases for over a thousand years. In a situation such as Frostpunk, the only way to survive is with science and technology. As much as religion likes to claim miracles are possible, faith and superstition alone will not protect you from the cold or keep you from starving to death. No God or Gods will come save you. Only the hard work of Humans can ensure your survival. However, that is not to say religion isn't important. Some people really need it because the thought of dying and that truly being the end as they cease to exist scares them beyond belief. I know it certainly scares me. Personally I want to live to see the end of the universe, if not even beyond that into literal eternity if possible. However, religion is technically not necessary for survival. Personally, I believe all gods and all other creatures from all religions actually exist in a nonphysical realm, but they have little to no influence on the physical world, and _humans_ created _them_ through their mass belief and worship of them not the other way around. But who knows? It's irrelevant either way. Besides, most gods are stuck up, arrogant, self righteous, assholes with overly inflated egos and massive and undeserved superiority complexs anyways.
@@spacemarinechaplain9367 Sorta but not really, I guess? It sort of depends on which gods from Warhammer 40k you're referring to. The Chaos gods weren't created so much through belief as they were formed from the collective thoughts and emotions of every living thing in the galaxy. I don't believe the collective emotions of every living thing on their own would actually create anything let alone anything that powerful given they would completely lack direction or coherency. If you're referring to the God Emperor of Mankind or possibly the Eldar gods though, then that's quite a bit closer of a comparison I guess. Sorta weird to think about it like that, honestly. Then again, certain things in Warhammer _do_ seem to resemble what I personally understand about real life metaphysics in _a few_ ways, just exaggerated to the point of complete and utter cartoonish ridiculousness and twisted and corrupted until it becomes unreasonably nightmarish, though it is very much it's own thing in a _lot_ other ways. You sure as shit aren't going to use any metaphysical realm for FTL travel in real life like they do in W40k. That's just not how things work. FTL travel is a physical thing and thus needs to be solved through physical means. And psykers aren't a thing. Or well, to be more accurate _everyone_ has psychic abilities it's just that you're never going to be shooting lightning from your fingertips like people can in stories or in movies. Maybe after a lifetime of dedicated practice and meditation and stuff you *might* be able to make a pencil slightly wobble abit, or maybe even make it roll across a table assuming you're particularly talented, but you're not going to do much else beyond that. Well, unless you die and decide to stick around in the physical world as a ghost or something for whatever reason but that's a whole different topic. Anyways, I believe what I believe -- whether I'm right or wrong -- and everyone else believes whatever else they believe. To each their own.
Due to the ending sadly I have to say Order won. As Faith left it up to the person to decide if they survived, and Order was a statement such as "We survived!".
@@lilstarjester3927 Go onto the second chorus. The Church glass transforms into people following the priest instead of looking up towards the light, and the posters change from "Earn your bread" to "Make your pledge", multiple of them do, and 'Disloyal' can be seen written on the wall with blood.
@@Alexl23l273 order is direct raw and absolute while faith feeds people lies to keep their hope up. faith is against progression of humanity while order will progress no matter what since higher motivation keep people efficient and compliant the leader will decide to go that way if he wants to stay in power without having to deal with rebellions.
@@haruki4kPlaying the devil's advocate here as I do believe there isn't a single objective or better route, in my opinion. But I do believe you severely undersold Faith. What you said makes sense in the surface, but in the end, it seems rather biased is it not? Faith, despite it being a lie or not, is still helpful, not just for hope, but for passively maintaining order, trying to redeem and rehabilitate sinners rather than just imprisoning them, using church sermons to have some form of unity, where everyone isn't just "trying to survive" but rather "trying to reach a higher purpose" and that God is with them, these lies are synonymous to Order's propagandas, they use the same tactics in order to gain some form of unity and I fail to understand why you didn't address that. And let's try comparing these two to real life examples. Think of athiests nations that are highly authoritarian like North Korea, is North Korea the epitome of human progress? And I know a lot of irl theocracies are bad, but seriously, if full blown zero religion order does progress, then how come a lot of thriving civilizations today have at least a hint of faith in them? What about in history? Has there ever been an ancient civilization thats doesn't have religion in it? It doesn't because Faith has always been an integral aspect of keeping people together, it's a precursor to a lot of healthy civilizations that thrive. It's often needed when times are tough because people need to be somewhat illogical in order to keep going. And that despite the low chance of surviving the cold winter, the people are still hopeful and neglect all reason choosing to hold on due to belief. That's why a lot of nations and states that are completely athiest usually either crumble due to public dissent or just have to double down on their authority completely making their people feel misserable. It's easy to scoff at Faith and religion's usefulness in today's society where everything is handed to us, but the effects of faith and hope is very useful, especially in a lot of grim situations like Frostpunk where the people require really high hopes and unity and not just threats in order for them to work.
I mustve watched this quite literally 40 times over the last couple of days and I can't get over how well written it is. I am not a fan of rap but this is true raw talent, pure poetry perhaps. Works so well for Frostpunk but would fit in almost any apocalyptic settings.
to say you guys have outdone this would be an understatement it sounds like a disney song where the protagonist is also a villain singing off against the main villain
@@killerhellhound not villains- they are 2 people who know that the extremes must be done to focus the people for the day the generator is destroyed or goes cold is the day the city and its occupants die May it be by the word of faith and guidance to bring hope and prevent morale from falling Or may it be the path of order and law that focuses the people and keeps them in line and keeps the peace In such a case like this the extremes must be taken if anyone is to survive
That's actually a very interesting idea like if you choose order (my fav to go with) there would be like a group that doesn't agree and they split from the main group and starts up a new city and basically goes to war with your city and like it's like who wins, who lives longer.
@@codexoflols9515 oh and because of the cold you can only really fight each other using ether automatons modified to carry guns or another steam punk war machines that are costly.

It was an EU policy. So states have 2 years to enact a law that represents this policy, they have always some wiggle room but it musn't be too far from the original text.
Article 13 is what you get when you have people that don't know how alot of these sites work in detail start trying to pass laws to "regulate" it. They just don't realize how much publicity the movies and or games they make can get off youtube and other sites, they are potentially cutting their own profits down with this move

Because, why think for yourself, when you can stupidly parrot the alt-right that is howling against the EU and everything it does, including article 13?
Ariel Cahn the choir is singing yes but it’s more of a both sides point of view with the whole beginning line of “morning gathering or evening prayer” talking about law choices you can make if you choose order or faith
"Against elements precious seconds each of us has spent Completing public penance could have been used putting up the tents" That line got the order winning to me
I was a little annoyed at the end of the first verse since it propped up Faith as so nice and fluffy and Order as soul crushing totalitarianism. Then y'all go and hit me with the second first about burning heretics vs actually building an infrastructure.
Well I mean look at religious extremism. They act all nice and everything but as soon as a wrong thinking threat looms over they throw all that away for the meantime until they enact Their Crusade against the heathens.
I think that's how it works on the game as well, neither side is good and both can be pushed into murderous controllers with a firm grip on their followers and people
I like that in the final verse for Order, Dan starts using religious terminology like "seeking each unheeding heathen" showing that both paths lead to the same sort of tyranny if taken too far.
Order. All the way. This said, what we really need is a song about the true unsung heroes of the Frostpunk - *Automatons* . Those huge beasts of metal, who worked, unflinchingly, while those puny meatbags were all too busy screaming at each other, running away from the furnace, evading work and so on.
One thing I noticed across both versions is that the final lines could hint at some regret for the paths that have been chosen by both leaders. The priest in the Fatih version concludes with "Pray their mercy will deliver us when we touch the other side." It perhaps hints that the priest knows he is doing wrng, and hopes that he will be forgiven for it when he eventually dies. The Captain in the Order version ends with "Should the storms subside, it might be time to write a couple more." This might be getting tothe Captain developing a lust for power, but ultimately, I think that the laws he plans to write afterwards might have more to do with trying to restore some idealism .
"The book of laws is closed, it's frozen shut and couldn't thaw But should the storm subside it may be time to write a couple more." Most underrated lyric in the video.
think long term order is likely to be the least damaging to humanity after the storms pass faith faith is a poison that shall take many generations to fade. once the biting chill subsides and the new summer comes order will slowly crumble.
@@mr.j7444 I think while that is possible, history has shown that order (roman empires extreme powers) arent always done away with after the fact, that sometimes power isnt easily surrendered. In all honest, both sides have merits, but a governing body should be formed from all ideals and one goal - survival and betterment of its people. On their own, neither has longevity nor quality of life after the winter thaws, balance must be created and established in stone.
@@ShockFist faith resists balance rome fell and no longer holds sway outside the ideals of freedom it developed. but the vatican stands as an international body with immense power to this day. the path of order in frostpunk isnt good correct but thinking logically its the better for humanity after the winter passes.
there is one overwhelming truth in Dan's line that makes me think he won this battle for honesty alone by saying it clearly. "If a single person falls out of line, we all do" That single line is what motivated our ancestors in the real world to build a society and civilization in the first place. Since in frostpunk nature has forced us to a "do or die" situation like our fathers before us, the first Men, we returned to a place where there is no room for error no room for freedom. Presuming that the captain *DOES NOT* live in luxury and free from work like the totalitarism in modern worlds shown us, If he truly leads discipline by exemple, there is no sin in what he does. While faith tries to bind our soul through hope in a prophet, the captain binds hope in our work as a comunity to survive through sheer will and discipline, that alone is a miracle if you ask me.
@@steve6646 I see, well it makes sense that as time goes by faith becomes more important, and little by little a new cultural civilization is born through it to the point that order begins to serve faith, as it was in this way that our ancestors paved the way for future generations. though this process did take a long way i agree with you on what you said. I guess the way i meant to make my point was that this situation as presented by the game takes place in the very first years of the founding of this new london and so when in the middle of grievance for the life of confort that people lost, to make a stand and work together through order was the best they could to survive as there was much to be done, and the captain actually managing to do that would be a miracle itself. And yes the line of Dan about falling out of line could be applied through unity through faith

It feels like Stupendium and Danbull's previous frostpunk songs has them come to the conclusion of the faction they represent in this one, like in Stupendium's, the final verse is very sacrificial, and almost spirtual, andDanbull talks about a world of frigid ice on the verge of anarchy, the only man who could lead the remnants of mankind being himself. so if both of your songs were foreshadowing this collabs conflict? I gotta say , you guys have some enviable organization skills!
a note to the corse witch i love as it is stupendium's stranth is the last 2 parts with the heel of progress and shelter from the storm, oh god i love both of thoes songs and its nice to see them backed up here so to give a story for the 3 songs i wish to have the story continue for i cant keep the game going thinks to coal being a bigger worrie thought food never seamed to exist but we lived :\ till we froze
"For a city is it's people, and it's people are it's heart, stood together gainst the weather, gainst the coming of the dark!" is best line by miles for me, and admittedly one of the few I can keep pace with. Awesome work!
In my opinion the final line by dan "... And should the storm subside it might be time to write a couple more" would conclude with: to forgive the atrocitys we are about to commit
My god this is so artistically beautiful. My second time watching this and I’m noticing all the small changes not only in the lyrics but in the artwork too. How as you go farther down each of the trees that the backgrounds during the chorus are changing like the stain glass and the posters are showing different and more loyal pictures to the final outcome of the trees.
I like how both videos end on essentially the same note with different terms. Whether by faith or order the book of law is closed, whether as sheep or vermin you must obey.
Dannnnnnnnnnnnnn you and stupendium need to make more music together. This was just as fantastic as the first frostpunk rap. Truly Legendary 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I have been snoozing on Dan Bull for a while now, but I'm glad to see that you haven't deteriorated one bit. As an added bonus, I now discovered The Stupendium :) Also, the animations + costumes are gorgeous! Who makes them? Do you have a team now?
To be honest my man! This is my favourite song so far because it’s a beautiful balance between musical and rap but also with a hint of real world problems. Both sides right in certain ways but no side overpowers the other. And the chorus is an amazing summary of the game. A true masterwork
"Weep as you read the scriptures" (stank face) Damn, Dan!!! I like Stupendium's overall presentation, and rhyme schemes, and message, but lines like this, and "hang them by their necks until it's taut (taught) the lesson learned is certain" is some GOD TIER WORDPLAY! Too close to call imo.
I'll choose order over faith anyday. There is no God of The Generator, the God won't save you. We just need to come together and work to battle against cold eternal winter.

At least order is honest about itself, but faith means that there's a heaven to go to afterwards.

Yes, exactly. The first verse represents the good part of both Order and Faith, where Faith unites people and guides them towards a higher purpose, and Order protects people against threats and unites them in work. The second verse is when they devolve into dictatorship/theocracy respectively.

First of all, the statement itself:

is a very stupid thing to compare, because not only is public penance useful as it rehabilitates criminals. It also compares two things that aren't meant to be compared.
Setting camps isn't really comparable to public penance.
A better argument would be comparing imprisonment to public penance where one imprisons people while the other rehabilitates them
I still like the lyrics but saying that it's somehow the winning line and that there's no argument against it is kinda weird.
TLDR: 1. Public penance is useful as it literally rehabilitates criminals making them productive again, while discouraging others to do crime.

Okay, so I was originally just thinking we were talking about in-game mechanics. But if we're going by real-life prison, then that really depends on the prison, isn't it?
Cuz there are a lot of statistics that back up that prisons often don't give much of a crap in rehabilitation, and although rehabilitation might be good in some countries, it definitely isn't in most countries, especially in a fictional setting in frostpunk. Recidivism is far too common, and most drug abusers that are put in prison only roughly 15% of them actually recover from addiction.
Meanwhile, public penance (aka poisoning their minds), tell criminals and offenders to apologize to the hurt parties and to God and are given the chance to repent from their misdeeds. Now, this method obviously has a lot of flaws, but I find it dumb to completely discredit its utility, especially when the world is set in frostpunk, where a belief of a higher being is probably far more effective at keeping people in control without the use of force. The fact that God is fake or not is irrelevant when the teachings itself aren't even harmful in moderation and just equally as harmful when compared to order if things become fanatic.
@@vbnv-oz8bj”poisoning their minds” makes them easier to control, which is practical for a setting where the phrase “if one if us falls out of line, we all do” is the truth.
Just like in game, you both have won for different reasons. On one hand, Stupendium's verses had that divine inspiration that builds hope and morale, whereas your verses bear that stern grit that instills purpose and crushes dissent.
Fantastic work, the both of you! Glad 11bit decided to help you with this one!
We love the final result of our collaboration and we hope to work with Dan and Greg in the future as well! :)
@@11bitstudios That is great to hear! :)
@@11bitstudios yeah it is
@@11bitstudios If you make another Frostpunk game or Frostpunk inspired game they would definitely do a great job with promoting it.
The end of both is pessimistic, with the causes of Faith and Order no longer existing to restore hope in a better tomorrow but instead serving themselves, the transformation from a cause meant to inspire and comfort to one only committed to keeping the people in line, crushing hope in favor of devotion or obedience.

Also… this is only the FIRST collaboration between the two of us. More to come...

I liked stupendiums first verse
Will all the collabs be rap battles?
I’ve been waiting literally years for this collaboration... and it was worth the wait 😻
Can’t wait for more collabs from you two artists!
And obviously Dan, it’s because Cheltnam does not accept defeat.
Lol
You won because your hat is cooler, even tho it's warmer
Dennis van der Werf his hat be sick tho
Stupes sounds nicer so in my opinion he has won
A) Nice joke.
B) Correct.
I've worn that type of hat, it's way warmer than a hood.
This isn't Team Fortress 2. Cooler hats don't always win.
In preparation for Frostpunk 2, a Last Autumn Engineers VS Workers rap would be awesome.
I've been working on a D&D 5e campaign setting inspired by Frostpunk. I knew I was going to have some NPCs based and Dan Bull and Stupendium, started on rough designs and then they go and realise this gem. Definitely have a better picture now for them.
Stupendum the one who leads the faithful
And dan the one who orders with the word of law
That sounds like an awesome campaign
Also make it to where the gods are are ambiguous at best or clerics and paladins are power by thier own Sheer Belief to muddy the waters further
@@the_protectorof_smols3563 So like Ebberon, it's said in that world someone could manifest divine spells from belief in their shoelace if they truly believed it could grant them divine spells. Perhaps both followers of Order and Faith could manifest divine magic, Order as a sort of 'Will of the Law' justification, Faith believing it to be literally divine.
@@paulmahoney7619 yeah kinda like that but remember that the belief has to be wholehearted and sincere otherwise your own subconscious will probably fuck up your ability to cast hell you can use that as a fucked up way to test for spys and "nonbelievers" if you felt so inclined
How is the campaign? It's been 2 years and I'm kinda curious at how things go.
I love how the two versions ultimately become near identical in the final verse, showing that, however different faith and order may be, they are, taken to extremes, the same: bloody-minded tyrants who kill all that oppose them and crush all hope beneath unceasing obedience and devotion. The jackboot and the theocrat, two sides of the same coin.
@Quodlibeta Except the theocrat will freeze because his belief has a weak impact on reality, while the jackboot survives by optimizing the people for the betterment of the entire colony.
@Quodlibeta
Part of that is because they aren't meant to last forever. We design stuff so it's easy to tear down if we want to build something new on top of it. If we wanted to we could build something that lasts hundreds of thousands if not millions of years, but we don't because that would be way more expensive and would be more difficult to replace with something even better later on.
They built their stuff that way because they didn't have modern knowledge and technology and because they were planning on their religion lasting pretty much forever. If anything that is indicative of how religion causes stagnation rather than advancement. Such as how Christianity caused technological and scientific stagnation if not outright regression in a lot of cases for over a thousand years.
In a situation such as Frostpunk, the only way to survive is with science and technology. As much as religion likes to claim miracles are possible, faith and superstition alone will not protect you from the cold or keep you from starving to death. No God or Gods will come save you. Only the hard work of Humans can ensure your survival.
However, that is not to say religion isn't important. Some people really need it because the thought of dying and that truly being the end as they cease to exist scares them beyond belief. I know it certainly scares me. Personally I want to live to see the end of the universe, if not even beyond that into literal eternity if possible. However, religion is technically not necessary for survival.
Personally, I believe all gods and all other creatures from all religions actually exist in a nonphysical realm, but they have little to no influence on the physical world, and _humans_ created _them_ through their mass belief and worship of them not the other way around. But who knows? It's irrelevant either way. Besides, most gods are stuck up, arrogant, self righteous, assholes with overly inflated egos and massive and undeserved superiority complexs anyways.
none of your business So basically how gods are created in Warhammer 40k?
@@spacemarinechaplain9367
Sorta but not really, I guess? It sort of depends on which gods from Warhammer 40k you're referring to. The Chaos gods weren't created so much through belief as they were formed from the collective thoughts and emotions of every living thing in the galaxy. I don't believe the collective emotions of every living thing on their own would actually create anything let alone anything that powerful given they would completely lack direction or coherency. If you're referring to the God Emperor of Mankind or possibly the Eldar gods though, then that's quite a bit closer of a comparison I guess.
Sorta weird to think about it like that, honestly. Then again, certain things in Warhammer _do_ seem to resemble what I personally understand about real life metaphysics in _a few_ ways, just exaggerated to the point of complete and utter cartoonish ridiculousness and twisted and corrupted until it becomes unreasonably nightmarish, though it is very much it's own thing in a _lot_ other ways.
You sure as shit aren't going to use any metaphysical realm for FTL travel in real life like they do in W40k. That's just not how things work. FTL travel is a physical thing and thus needs to be solved through physical means. And psykers aren't a thing. Or well, to be more accurate _everyone_ has psychic abilities it's just that you're never going to be shooting lightning from your fingertips like people can in stories or in movies. Maybe after a lifetime of dedicated practice and meditation and stuff you *might* be able to make a pencil slightly wobble abit, or maybe even make it roll across a table assuming you're particularly talented, but you're not going to do much else beyond that. Well, unless you die and decide to stick around in the physical world as a ghost or something for whatever reason but that's a whole different topic.
Anyways, I believe what I believe -- whether I'm right or wrong -- and everyone else believes whatever else they believe. To each their own.
There’s no denying that
Oh my gawd. This video!
Due to the ending sadly I have to say Order won. As Faith left it up to the person to decide if they survived, and Order was a statement such as "We survived!".
Yes
Theres an alternate ending on Stupendiums channel where Faith gets the final verse instead
I like that the background changes as the two sides get more and more dark.
Wdym by that what changes?

But order route has prisons that inprison people for 3 days while public penance just hurts some people.
@@Alexl23l273 thats same thing, i say the religion one is worse because they are hypocrite, pretend to be holy then burning people alive
@@Alexl23l273 order is direct raw and absolute while faith feeds people lies to keep their hope up. faith is against progression of humanity while order will progress no matter what since higher motivation keep people efficient and compliant the leader will decide to go that way if he wants to stay in power without having to deal with rebellions.
@@haruki4kPlaying the devil's advocate here as I do believe there isn't a single objective or better route, in my opinion. But I do believe you severely undersold Faith.
What you said makes sense in the surface, but in the end, it seems rather biased is it not?
Faith, despite it being a lie or not, is still helpful, not just for hope, but for passively maintaining order, trying to redeem and rehabilitate sinners rather than just imprisoning them, using church sermons to have some form of unity, where everyone isn't just "trying to survive" but rather "trying to reach a higher purpose" and that God is with them, these lies are synonymous to Order's propagandas, they use the same tactics in order to gain some form of unity and I fail to understand why you didn't address that.
And let's try comparing these two to real life examples.
Think of athiests nations that are highly authoritarian like North Korea, is North Korea the epitome of human progress? And I know a lot of irl theocracies are bad, but seriously, if full blown zero religion order does progress, then how come a lot of thriving civilizations today have at least a hint of faith in them?
What about in history? Has there ever been an ancient civilization thats doesn't have religion in it? It doesn't because Faith has always been an integral aspect of keeping people together, it's a precursor to a lot of healthy civilizations that thrive.
It's often needed when times are tough because people need to be somewhat illogical in order to keep going. And that despite the low chance of surviving the cold winter, the people are still hopeful and neglect all reason choosing to hold on due to belief.
That's why a lot of nations and states that are completely athiest usually either crumble due to public dissent or just have to double down on their authority completely making their people feel misserable.
It's easy to scoff at Faith and religion's usefulness in today's society where everything is handed to us, but the effects of faith and hope is very useful, especially in a lot of grim situations like Frostpunk where the people require really high hopes and unity and not just threats in order for them to work.
I mustve watched this quite literally 40 times over the last couple of days and I can't get over how well written it is. I am not a fan of rap but this is true raw talent, pure poetry perhaps. Works so well for Frostpunk but would fit in almost any apocalyptic settings.
Same. Works on my stellaris playthroughs weirdly. Even though all my stellaris playthroughs are post-apocalyptic
to say you guys have outdone this would be an understatement

@@killerhellhound not villains- they are 2 people who know that the extremes must be done to focus the people for the day the generator is destroyed or goes cold is the day the city and its occupants die
May it be by the word of faith and guidance to bring hope and prevent morale from falling
Or may it be the path of order and law that focuses the people and keeps them in line and keeps the peace
In such a case like this the extremes must be taken if anyone is to survive
@@thecrtf4953 the generator will survive if you replace the heat core instead of saying nah its fine and let the generator to broke down badly
Now I was a 'Faith vs Order' DLC, where the path you don't pick starts up their own city that you must compete with
That's actually a very interesting idea like if you choose order (my fav to go with) there would be like a group that doesn't agree and they split from the main group and starts up a new city and basically goes to war with your city and like it's like who wins, who lives longer.

Alternate Ending Comparisons:
Order:
Now the book of laws have closed
You've no hope to try and fight
As the people fall in line
And march in time with iron might
Non believers shan't deceive us
We shall greet their cheek
With grievance
In this ceaseless season
We redeem the meek with bleak obedience
Seeking each unheeding heathen
See them bleed or plead allegiance
Blessed be relief from freedom
Lest you feel the need for treason
Since the precept was decreed
It's certainty was predetermined
Mere vermin are the people
Thus they need to be subservient
They deserve paternal leadership
Eternally prescriptive
Turn a leaf in the journal
Weep as you read the scriptures
The book of laws is closed
It's frozen shut
And couldn't thaw
But should the storm subside
It might be time to write a couple more
Faith:
Now the book of laws have closed
And it's pages shine a light
As the people fill the shrines
In line with my divine right
This battlement of sacraments
As chattel to our rite
The sacrilegious and recalcitrant
Shall vow or face the smite
Non believers shan't deceive us
We shall greet their cheek
With grievance
In this ceaseless season
We redeem the meek with bleak obedience
Seeking each unheeding heathen
See them bleed or plead allegiance
Blessed be relief from freedom
Lest ye feel the need for treason
Since the precept was decreed
Its certainty was predetermined
Mere herds of sheep are people
Thus they need to be subservient
'Neath so turbulent a firmament
The worst of men survive
Pray their mercy may preserve us
Once we touch the other side
This should be very helpful for any one that is still deciding on the side they chose, good job.

Completing public penance could have been used putting up the tents"

Well I mean look at religious extremism. They act all nice and everything but as soon as a wrong thinking threat looms over they throw all that away for the meantime until they enact Their Crusade against the heathens.

I love the chorus. I can totally picture the workers singing it in the mines and factories.
holy shit yeah
I like that in the final verse for Order, Dan starts using religious terminology like "seeking each unheeding heathen" showing that both paths lead to the same sort of tyranny if taken too far.
Order. All the way. This said, what we really need is a song about the true unsung heroes of the Frostpunk - *Automatons* . Those huge beasts of metal, who worked, unflinchingly, while those puny meatbags were all too busy screaming at each other, running away from the furnace, evading work and so on.
Whoever posts a 10 hour loop of the chorus is the winner cuz hot damn I can listen to that forever.
One thing I noticed across both versions is that the final lines could hint at some regret for the paths that have been chosen by both leaders.
The priest in the Fatih version concludes with "Pray their mercy will deliver us when we touch the other side." It perhaps hints that the priest knows he is doing wrng, and hopes that he will be forgiven for it when he eventually dies.
The Captain in the Order version ends with "Should the storms subside, it might be time to write a couple more." This might be getting tothe Captain developing a lust for power, but ultimately, I think that the laws he plans to write afterwards might have more to do with trying to restore some idealism .
"If the sun wont rise on the horizon, We'll march on to spite the sky" is the HARDEST line I've ever heard.
"The book of laws is closed, it's frozen shut and couldn't thaw
But should the storm subside it may be time to write a couple more."

think long term order is likely to be the least damaging to humanity after the storms pass faith faith is a poison that shall take many generations to fade. once the biting chill subsides and the new summer comes order will slowly crumble.
@@mr.j7444 I think while that is possible, history has shown that order (roman empires extreme powers) arent always done away with after the fact, that sometimes power isnt easily surrendered.
In all honest, both sides have merits, but a governing body should be formed from all ideals and one goal - survival and betterment of its people.
On their own, neither has longevity nor quality of life after the winter thaws, balance must be created and established in stone.
@@ShockFist faith resists balance rome fell and no longer holds sway outside the ideals of freedom it developed. but the vatican stands as an international body with immense power to this day. the path of order in frostpunk isnt good correct but thinking logically its the better for humanity after the winter passes.
there is one overwhelming truth in Dan's line that makes me think he won this battle for honesty alone by saying it clearly.
"If a single person falls out of line, we all do"
That single line is what motivated our ancestors in the real world to build a society and civilization in the first place. Since in frostpunk nature has forced us to a "do or die" situation like our fathers before us, the first Men, we returned to a place where there is no room for error no room for freedom. Presuming that the captain *DOES NOT* live in luxury and free from work like the totalitarism in modern worlds shown us, If he truly leads discipline by exemple, there is no sin in what he does. While faith tries to bind our soul through hope in a prophet, the captain binds hope in our work as a comunity to survive through sheer will and discipline, that alone is a miracle if you ask me.
@@steve6646 I see, well it makes sense that as time goes by faith becomes more important, and little by little a new cultural civilization is born through it to the point that order begins to serve faith, as it was in this way that our ancestors paved the way for future generations. though this process did take a long way i agree with you on what you said. I guess the way i meant to make my point was that this situation as presented by the game takes place in the very first years of the founding of this new london and so when in the middle of grievance for the life of confort that people lost, to make a stand and work together through order was the best they could to survive as there was much to be done, and the captain actually managing to do that would be a miracle itself. And yes the line of Dan about falling out of line could be applied through unity through faith

My god this is so artistically beautiful. My second time watching this and I’m noticing all the small changes not only in the lyrics but in the artwork too. How as you go farther down each of the trees that the backgrounds during the chorus are changing like the stain glass and the posters are showing different and more loyal pictures to the final outcome of the trees.

The characters match your voices really well. Awesome song! Of the two I think I like this one more, seems more equal singing time
I like how both videos end on essentially the same note with different terms. Whether by faith or order the book of law is closed, whether as sheep or vermin you must obey.

Also, the animations + costumes are gorgeous! Who makes them? Do you have a team now?
To be honest my man! This is my favourite song so far because it’s a beautiful balance between musical and rap but also with a hint of real world problems. Both sides right in certain ways but no side overpowers the other. And the chorus is an amazing summary of the game. A true masterwork
the effect on "fetch the coiled rope" was extremely well done
"Weep as you read the scriptures" (stank face) Damn, Dan!!! I like Stupendium's overall presentation, and rhyme schemes, and message, but lines like this, and "hang them by their necks until it's taut (taught) the lesson learned is certain" is some GOD TIER WORDPLAY! Too close to call imo.
