I wonder if, at 15:07 its implied that ash himself has become an npc doomed to stay in that spot forever or die maybe someone else will come to speak.. then he'll watch them die too
It could be a spot for Ash, to stay. It could be something unfinished during the game development, although unlikely. It could be there so that the player creates his/her own meaning. If so i like to think that the spot was meant for Meat Boy, but it probably didn't happen since Edmond doesn't own the IP anymore. So it just exists there as a spot, meant for someone that didn't make it.
Wow, there are a lot more NPCs then I thought, finding these guys and seeing what they have to say is probably one of the most fun parts of the game, it really adds to the whole exploration aspect.
AwesomeX357 it's probably fun until you find that one screen with the birds in the wall of sorrow where you have to use them to get to the guy. Probably the worst of the game
Yeah, that's the only one I haven't gotten, and I don't want to try. Just like the acceptance cart, after dying on 5-5 I really don't want to play it anymore.
Wow I just realized in the end ash is feeling the ascension when we talk to the NPC in the first world he said something about a fingernail and in the very last ending he talks about his fingernail. Wow ok
he said something about a foot too, hinting at Acceptance's cutscene, heck the white light in its entirety is a reference to Acceptance, sorry this comment is 10 months old but wanted to point it out
@@jackieChannel.He can’t be a cancer cell, it was confirmed that a nuclear bomb is the reason why everything is in ruin and why everyone is a blob, which means that at some point, everyone we talk to was a human, whether it was ghosts, skeletons, ascender blobs or descender blobs or even big Steven. The secret ending of the game, never more, further confirms this because ash talks about a time when he was still a human
@@Xmaster-bh8wb im pretty sure in the super mega cart ending or something like that ash is confirmed to be a malignant tumor that grew and gained sentience enough to identify with its hosts memories
It is extremely curious to me that this game very deliberately does not reference Super Meat Boy or any stuff from that series at all. All the things present are from Edmund's other games. With this game being directly inspired by MB I can't imagine that'd be by complete accident. Considering how Edmund left Meat Boy for whatever dumb devs it has now that make such mediocre games, it almost feels like he's completely detached from it. Edit: I've since found out Ed gave away the rights of Meat Boy long before this game, and doesn't own it anymore. Still stand by it, what happened to Meat Boy is a very odd departure from what it was originally.
Is nobody going to talk about all the characters in the Future levels? They're all references to other Edmund McMillen games. Here's the list of references in order of appearance; . Isaac from "The Binding of Isaac" . Gish from Gish . Steven from Time Fcuk . Guppy The Dead Cat from The Binding of Isaac If there's anyone I missed off this list, please let me know in the comment section below. . The Octopus from Aether
9:53 and 10:53 are the most superior, 9:53 not only has a shaking animation that no other NPC has (he shakes violently) but he’s also one of the only npcs to try and “harm” the player. 10:53 is the one other npc to harm the player and as we see, they actually succeed and it also has one of the coolest designs of an npc in the game
For first - You should wait really long time. That platform will grow from ground. For second - after drop down in this area make little pause, then go to the left. From ground will be grow second block to reach that guy.
Многие сотни попыток, в том числе периодически бывали и случайные попадания в портал :) Когда начинается диалог с призраком включается бессмертие и птицы не могут убить.
Wait long time near edge. That platform VERY SLOWLY (really extremely slowly) rises. You can take break for tea and maybe platform will be enough high to jump.
Edmund McMillen took part of developing this game. Also his took part of developing Gish, Super Meat Boy and Isaac. So references from another his game not surprised. That one universe.
Ok, yes "Universe" - wrong word. And yes Edmund said that game is not Super Meat Boy Universe (twitter.com/edmundmcmillen/status/873976139806408704) So not all his games in one Universe.

I like the sound of that.
That's just insanely cool game design

11:51 masterpiece meets other masterpiece from other game
For a game called 'The End is Nigh' I still wasn't expecting the dialog to be this existential.
GET THE FUCK OUT MY HIDEY HOLE!! - A Very Angry Blob (2017-2017)
Drinking game: take a drink everytime some says "..."
God damnit, Isaac ate another Telepill
(11:51)
11:51 OH, MAN
This is a good video. Did everything I came for. Well done my sir 5/5
So Isaac, Steven, Gish, and Guppy are NPCs? cool.
Ive seen theories that ash is a cancer cell and that's why he got no limbs
thats stupid
@@KirbySmasher48 I mean, he does get called cancer on the game itself.
Even on this video someone calls him cancer boy.
@@jackieChannel.He can’t be a cancer cell, it was confirmed that a nuclear bomb is the reason why everything is in ruin and why everyone is a blob, which means that at some point, everyone we talk to was a human, whether it was ghosts, skeletons, ascender blobs or descender blobs or even big Steven.

It was hard to focus on the tower story with all the damn croasts distracting me
Isaac, i think we took a wrong turn at Dank Depths I
How is that you haven't gotten kids yet?

some people have theorized that this game was heavily heavily inspidered by the team meat split... i could definitely see it
Considering guppy is dead, his dialogue is actually quite morbid.
So depressing :(
Is nobody going to talk about all the characters in the Future levels?
They're all references to other Edmund McMillen games.
Here's the list of references in order of appearance;
. Isaac from "The Binding of Isaac"
. Gish from Gish
. Steven from Time Fcuk
. Guppy The Dead Cat from The Binding of Isaac

8:26 is by far superior.
9:53 and 10:53 are the most superior, 9:53 not only has a shaking animation that no other NPC has (he shakes violently) but he’s also one of the only npcs to try and “harm” the player. 10:53 is the one other npc to harm the player and as we see, they actually succeed and it also has one of the coolest designs of an npc in the game
I'm surprised there wasn't any character from Super Meat Boy
Cuz Edmund would get sued 😔
Edmond sadly doesn't own the IP anymore.
I personally like to believe that the spot at 14:52 was meant for Meat Boy, but he didn't make it in.
Oh yeah anguish just has a completely barren secret area nobody knows the meaning of
How'd you spawn that platform at 10:19? As well as reaching the guy at 6:00?
For first - You should wait really long time. That platform will grow from ground.
For second - after drop down in this area make little pause, then go to the left. From ground will be grow second block to reach that guy.
@@CarrotHelper thanks
What's the name of the music that starts at 4:07?
Gymnopedie 1. - Satie
Meat Boy isn't here :(
6:35 сколько попыток тебе потребовалось попасть туда, включая то, что возле призрака нужно было встать так, чтобы птица не убила?
Многие сотни попыток, в том числе периодически бывали и случайные попадания в портал :) Когда начинается диалог с призраком включается бессмертие и птицы не могут убить.
10:23 wait how did u get that platform?
Wait long time near edge.
That platform VERY SLOWLY (really extremely slowly) rises.
You can take break for tea and maybe platform will be enough high to jump.
Where Is this located? I can’t find it
3:06 : he obviously makes an edging reference
So is this game related to the binding of Isaac story wise?
Edmund McMillen took part of developing this game. Also his took part of developing Gish, Super Meat Boy and Isaac. So references from another his game not surprised. That one universe.
+Carrot Helper
Is it confirmed the same universe? Just because they are reference to other games Edmund made doesn't mean it's the same universe.
Ok, yes "Universe" - wrong word.
And yes Edmund said that game is not Super Meat Boy Universe (twitter.com/edmundmcmillen/status/873976139806408704)
So not all his games in one Universe.
It's just a cameo thing
Binding of Isaac and The End is Nigh same Universe exist where live Ash and Isaac
Thank you!
Is there some in-game reward for talking to these guys?
Nope. That just part of the story.
4:51 скажи, а это где вообще?

Any hide mechanic to get 6:38? seems to be VERY JANK
Lots of trying, pain and suffering is the only mechanic :)
I think you missed the factory ones.

HANDSOME
What is the lore in this game? (Also Which of these characters would you want to be? I'd want to be one of the Ines. Believing in the ascension).
Everything died.
There. That’s all the lore you need.
It's the end of the world
I have no creativity
Cancer
@@EndermanPierce no thats boring. shut up
Huge bomb dropped. End of world. Blob man wants to find a friend.
11:52 that sounds familiar
Where the heck is 10:22 located?
You can find the way here (start at 01:15 th-cam.com/video/S4g8tNzZURU/w-d-xo.html)
god damnit isaac srop using joker cards
Am I the only one who feels like the guy at 10:53 has the potential to be a boss fight?
I always wanted this guy as a boss at 9:35 lol
