    Also mandrakes are deffinitely lunar aligned because you can find the panflute next to glommers statue, glommer is lunar aligned (as it shows in the scrapbook). And you craft the panflute with mandrakes.

      ​@kocsisvirag1561 the shadow manipulator itself is a bit outdated at this point I think and should be regarded more as simply just a 'magic station'. You can also craft the Bright Boxer and Moondial at the shadow manipulator which are definitely not shadow crafts.

    One minor mistake I would like to point out, you listed green gems as being connected to growth and plants and construction. However, the game instead seems to make it clear that green gems are actually connected to time. Nearly every quote for the deconstruction staff mentions how it literally reverses time to decraft an object, time manipulation is one of the most powerful abilities and green gems are the most expensive, and out of all the gems, Wanda is only interested in the purple gem (due to her shadow magic) and the green gem (due to its time manipulation).
    Now onto some other bits of insight that might help you with potential new theory crafting. I think I have mentioned this before, but have you ever considered the possibility of the Constant being the antithesis of Altar and thus, the other one of Them? Additionally, red gems and blue gems seem not connected to hot and cold, but rather red are connected to life energy, with life energy having numerous connections to heat and red, from Wortox soul colors, to Willow's embers requiring killing living things, dragoon hearts being the core ingredient for powerful fire crafts, and the life giving amulet, while blue gems are connected to the opposite, with quotes for the chilled amulet stating that it doesn't really cool down so much as it sucks the vitality and thus heat out of whoever puts it on, and it specifically needs to be placed on the sternum, which is right in front of the heart. Speaking about gems, it could be possible that all of Them are connected to a different gem type, with purple for the Constant and iridescent for Altar, but potentially red for the volcano (it seems to be a living being, it is part of the Constant and red gems can be crafted into purple gems, and it requires snackrifices of life force and is responsible for the dragoon hearts), orange for the Gnaw (It looks like wormholes, which teleport between two locations just like orange gems and all orange gem crafts are connected to laziness, with one even teleporting items straight to you, just like how the Gnaw is rather lazy and forces others to get food for it), and, if we consider that both the planet and the moon are not actually celestial bodies but "Thems," then why not have the sun be a "Them" and thus it would be connected to yellow gems. Additionally, time is known for being inconsistent in the "Them" universe, so perhaps there might be a green gem entity messing around.

    • @kocsisvirag1561
      @kocsisvirag1561 28 วันที่ผ่านมา +6

      Maxwell says "red is the color of fire" (for the crimson feather) and "red brings fire" (for the gem)
      So it isn't "life energy"
      Rather a symbolism as how a Phoenix revives from the ashes. That kind flame, and that how life giving amulet is based on.
      But ye, it is a kind of energy it outputs, life energy, whatever energy, it's not that important.
      As the life giving amulet also regenerates your health slowly overtime, by BURNING some of your calories/food (I say calories bc the eye of chutulu hat literally eats food, not the one you already ate)
      So.
      Fire.
      Symbolic fire.

    • @kocsisvirag1561
      @kocsisvirag1561 28 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      And nooou..?
      Blue gems don't necessarily "suck" your energy out (the chilled amulet).
      The reason why it activates near the sternum (what wagstaff says). Because all magic necklaces do...
      Like imagine the green gem necklace being active even if it's in your pocket,
      Or imagine the orange necklace collecting item around it even when on the ground.
      So I invalid your reasoning of chilled amulets sucking out life energy bc they need to be close to the sternum to activate, (which is close to the heart.)
      Bc if that were true, then there should be an exception of necklaces not activating.
      Or being active in other forms. (Dst life giving amulets I consider invalid. Bc yes they activate when hunted by a ghost, but it's not true for Ds, and I think was only implemented for multiplayer purposes.)
      Wick does say to the chilled amulet that "The gem appears to be sucking energy out anything it touches."
      BUT IT ISN'T life energy. Then gameplay wise you'd either age faster or lose hp.
      And Wx literally says "ITS MOLECULES ARE BARELY MOVING" for the ice staff.
      So it is based on molecular changes on the body which it exhibits on the whole body when worn.
      I'd say that would make you actually age slower... But that's not proven, I think it's more probable, it's only giving it's effects on the outer body, like yea "it's cold to the touch" but would freeze your inner body instantly.

    after watching the video i feel like the point that wormwood is engineered to be useful towards the survivors could mean a bit more then said in the video, we dont know alters goals, but sending down a literal infinite food (so healing, sanity, and hunger) machine a producer of arguably one of the better armours in the game, while hes also an endless source of living logs which provide weapons, heat, magic, and even more weapons, and even more magic. +theres the smaller stuff like the traps which do serve a purpose too. honestly looking at what wormwood has done so far, and at the fact that most skill trees cant align with alter, and just wagstaff, i think his goal isnt to sway the survivors to alters side. maybe alters goal is as simple as helping the survivors (thats basically all he has done so far) or atleast make them stronger. he surely knows things we have no ideas about, or maybe theres some other reason. loved the vid!

    One major issue though, if the apporkalypse is caused by alter, why was the apporkalypse calendar made clearly out of nightmare fuel?
    And why does the ancient herald appear?
    Also, why would it be caused by alter if the triggering device for the apporkalypse was clearly made by pigmen?
    My theory is that the apporkalypse was the normal state of Hamlet for a very long time, thus a civilization of pigmen made the calendar to slow it down.
    However, that still doesn't explain why the ancient herald exists, unless the ancient herald was possibly made as a combatant by the shadow throne.
    Also, there is another theory that Wormwood was created by alter to deconstruct the shadow throne, as Wormwood was made with a green gem, which is used in the deconstruction staff.
    One last thing, the name "Wormwood" might also be a hint, because "wormwood" was the meteorite that was thrown into the rivers and springs in the New Testament that poisoned the water supply, and guess where Wormwood came from, from the sky as a green gem meteorite. (Also this could be one of DSTs name mixing puns, as wormwood is not only a real type of plant but also the name of that meteorite.)

  • @DustD.Reaper
    @DustD.Reaper 28 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

    Alright here is what I think about some of the things mentioned
    - First, the reason why I belive Alter has so much influence over plantlife and limited influnce over the living beings is because, like our real moon, Alter can influence but on an even bigger scale (plants are about 80-95% water while humans are just 60%)
    - The Tree Guardians serve the purpose of ensuring there are always enough so while they could influenced by Alter, they could just aswell have been direct products of the Constant so it can stay...constant
    - Alter can most likely only take control of living things once they died is because then he doesnt have that bodies system to fight against, with him crystalizing the water of the body into the growths and excelerating its decay to produce Rot faster
    - Why I think the Moonrock Pengulls drop Monster Meat instead of Rot is because of their frozen bodies slowing the decay down so much that the Shadows could fester in them enough to turn it into Monster Meat, which is then kept in condition by the ice body
    - And lastly, I feel Alter didnt create Wormwood as a Diplomat or direct Agent, but instead for propagating plant life in the Constant, especially Lure Plants to increase the view Alter has. He doesnt like hurting plants because that goes against his purpose and he likes the other Survivors because they help him grow more plants, and while they do need to hurt plants for progress, having renewable or even an excess source of plants is in the best interests of the Survivors, meaning more plants Wormwood can grow. Wormwood most likely has no idea what any of Alters intentions are, be they good or bad, because just that knowledge could interfere with his purpose of making more plant life on the Constant, all he knows is "Plants are friend, funny meatbag also make plants, funny meatbag also friend" because that is all he needs

And if this is something that Alter (and its Gestalts) does, why is there no life on the surface of the moon? The moon is barren and dead -- something that makes me think that Alter is extremely jealous of the creations that Constant has created, specifically life.

    About Leafy Meat, it's curious how everyone despises it and yet it restores sanity, contrary to monster meat which is as repugnant and actually makes you lose sanity. On the one hand, I understand that the combo meat/veggie is more appetizing than meat/hair, but on the other, and in the context of being lunar aligned, does it mean it induces lunacy?

    This is extremely niece but relates to two points you make. The reason why lack of sleep will eventually kill you is because your body will be unable to keep up with your bodys lack of antioxidants.
    In the process of things rotting, part of the process is oxidation which excells rotting and leads to a unpleasant smell in organic matter.
    Maybe the gastalts are rapidly oxidizing the things they interact with. Stripping you of the recources your body needs forcing you to collapse and making things rot at excellerated speed.

      @AeyakS 28 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Although that's one argument, I would say that's not exactly it. Think about it, nightmare fuel can do almost ANYTHING. It can create matter, energy, and life; it's been used this way by the survivors and the Ancients.
      Moon energy can do almost none of those things. Instead of being capable of creating life, it is only capable of manipulating it. Instead of being able to create energy, it is only able to steal or change energy like how polar lights absorb heat from the environment to produce freezing effect.
      The moon is so interested and jealous of living creatures on the constant, but its own world is barren and lifeless. As it turns its focus towards the constant after the lunar siphonator event, it begins creating rifts in an effort to invade and corrupt the world.
      All that to say: the moon is not the opposite of the shadows. If it was, it would be equally powerful, but it's just not. To do magic, it has to pervert and change the creations of the Constant, and hence it's really not surprising that the plant life can have elements of both lunar and shadow.

      @contrapartidagames532 Woodie's quote implies that you're luring treeguards bot creating them. But there's also the fact that nightmare fuel/shadows aren't physical (can't get wet even after that was updated) so making a smell is weird. Also the connections made in this video
      Note: Roses and flowers are smells resulting due to Charlie, not the shadows

    I always felt that everything plant related is just under a teeny bit of the lunar influence, as much as the full moon cycle allows pretty much, even though some non plant creatures are still somewhat influenced, mostly mutations of sorts
    Then how the caves have NO lunar influence and then the shadow influence that was eventually unleashed, and also shadows maybe influencing creatures as well.
    oh but how certain surface things getting more lunar influence in certain conditions making things more prominent
    edit: yeah explaining the combinations of creatures

    Some interesting facts which may be thrilling to know. btw love your vids!! ;) I think shadow aligned and moon aligned deities in dst are based on the color systems in light and physical pigment or which you could translate to shadows. If you mix all primary light colors you get white, symbolizing altar (blue) the red hamlet moon and wormwood in green, who could've come down from earth but being like a heavenly moon angel? well and the shadow god charly is conversing with is red and the ancient murals show a yellow one, leaving the place of dark blue for charlie. maybe after a story line of her killing altar and splitting in two? well that's my shizophrenic prophesy rant 'bout it. Jokes aside 2 sides both based on the color theories of light and "darkness" (pigments). message me if you want some more infos on color theory and how it aligns with the lore best of love

    The red light part does not feel entirely accurate. Sunlight contains all spectrums of light, including red. In my opinion, the difference between the experiment and the aporkalypse is the intensity of light. The eclipse reduces the overall intensity of light, the red colour simply becoming more visible presumably because it reflects off of the moon surface the best, or something similar (I did not major in optics). Perhaps it is the result of the clouds and mist filtering out other light spectrums.
    That is, unless the aporkalypse, or the moon itself changes the properties of sunlight, intensifying the red rays and not just reducing the intensity of all others.

    • @AeyakS
      @AeyakS 28 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Oh, so, the reason that the aporkalypse is heavily affected by shadows and is not fully lunar energy is because the moon can only exert its nature by being free of the Constant's shadow whilst in orbit. However, what happens during a lunar eclipse, such as the Aporkalypse, is that the planet is casting its shadow entirely on the moon. In the case of the constant, this gives the shadows total control over the moon's magic, letting lunar hell reign under shadow's thumb.
