So starlight canyon was originally called stella canyon. That explains why the dungeon music for that section was called stella valley
Hey Zach it's nice to hear from you again, I hope you enjoyed the holidays! 🎄🎉
It's interesting as Sindain was also going to be called Charlotte, I perfer the names the came up with for the final version of the game haha! 😁
I just started playing dark cloud 2 for the first time about a week ago and have already watched all your videos lol
Hey Brandon, I think this is the first time we've spoken, it's nice to meet you! 😃
Haha wow this video couldn't have come at a better time! That's amazing, I always like to watch the videos before I go to sleep 😥
Thank you so much for all of the support Brandon, I hope 2021 treats us both well! 🌟✌
The findings in the Luna Lab server never cease to impress me, and the way you put them up in a video completes it, amazing work guys!
Hey there Macky, it's good to see you here! 😁
I'm glad that community now has a comprehensive video that details all of the cut content that our community has found ✌🎉
that bulliten board message is so cozy. i love that the message is just hiding there :)
Hey hey Tommy, it's nice to hear from you again! 🎉😁
Right, it's honestly so genuine I also love how there's an official mention to Pikachu in a PlayStaion game haha! 😂
13:08 Nice song!, that's new. Thanks for all your work dude.
Hey Pariah, it's so nice to hear from you again! 😊
Thank you for posting that comprehensive guide for the Dark Cloud Community, I hope a lot of people continue to use it to better understand the debug mode! 🌟✌
Oh man that new musical track is amazing, I can't imagine why they would remove it! 🌟😃
Just returning after a bit to say I finally got started on Dark Cloud 2! And at the same time I wanted to just check in on you, king! I hope you're doing well!
Hey Zatayoru, I hope all is well with you my friend! How is everything going with you? Things have been great jusy really busy! I wanted to take January and February off to work on the Rom Hack but new videos should be coming in March! I recorded the new Podcast and made sure to give you a shoutout! Much love brother! 🌟
Hmm, about Seda and Monica's relation, since Monica is from Max's future that would mean that both their timelines exist waaaaaaaaay before Toan, and that Palm Brinks probably developed to become one of the evil high tech empires that the DC1 lore mentions but is never seen.
Hey Hadje it's nice to hear from you again! 🌟
Agreed the situation with Monica and Seda it's honestly so weird, I always imagined them as relatives from the same kingdom; like Monica is a great granddaughter!
I wish we could have seen more different environments in the first Dark Cloud, there was actually so many areas actually mentioned in game that were never seen in addition to cut Fire dungeon assets that can still be found in DC 1's files; if you'd like more information on this check out my Dark Cloud 1 Iceberg as it's full of Beta Facts 😊

I did wonder about the star and moons being in the other areas and not the waterway. Not so much to explore it, but still. Less than 10 minutes in and loving it so far with the new information. As soon as I see you've uploaded, I send a link to my brother to watch too.
Hello again Ky An, I hope all is well and that you enjoyed the holidays!
I remember you mentioned watching the videos with your brother, that's so cool that we can share Dark Cloud like that! I have brothers that are much younger then me and they love to watch videos but i'm shy about recording it because the voice over sessions often take hours haha 😂
It's honestly so interesting seeing all of this cut content and wondering what could have been! 💫
@@DarkCloudCompendium oh yeah, definitely. He's nearly 7 years younger than me (both born in March, him near the start and me near the end), but always was close. We played these games a lot, though he felt the first game was more my sort of game, though I think he liked the second one better for the invention of stuffs 😊
@@DarkCloudCompendium and yeah, definitely on how it could have been. But we wouldn't also have experienced the other stuff that we've come to know and love. Bit of a paradox sort of thing. After one of your last videos, we had another dark cloud discussion (been happening more recently actually), and talked again about the seda being monicas father theory. I feel dark chronicle is the other time line of dark cloud after the effects of Toan's help or because of the genies influences, meaning Toans time is 500 years ahead of maxs of course. And he happened to look up moon people (that conversation might have started with him talking about it actually) and finding out that Pau was meant to turn out as Griffon, as his vessel, and Dr osmond is the same in both games due to having longer life spans. Really interesting.
@@kyan3022 Haha oh my gosh that reminds me of the talks that my brothers and I have, I think I perfer the first game for the simplicity I think everything just tends to work better 🌟
@@kyan3022 Wow, you know I never really thought about it that way but that makes a lot of sence! How I liked to interpret it is DC 2 takes places a couple of generations after DC 1 but where DC 1 primarily takes place in the East Terra where they value magic and nature DC 2 takes place in West Terra where technology is more common
Nice! I've been wondering if any DC2/Chronicle stuff would be found.
You just keep delivering the surprises!
Hey Scarecrow it's nice to hear from you again! I hope you enjoyed this chunky video, it was a lot of fun to make! 🎉😄
You better believe that there's cut content out there for the sequel! The Dark Cloud series was so ambitious that ideas were always being revised or removed for better ones!It really makes you think about what could have been! 🤔
This is the Compendium's longest video yet since it clocks in at 42 minutes, a culmination of 2 years of work! 😊
@@DarkCloudCompendium The work definitely shows! Thanks for all of the work that you guys put in, and for keeping the Dark Cloud legacy alive.
My inner child screams in excitement every time there's a new upload!
Haha that makes you and me both @@qrowing I always tell myself that i' making these videos for my inner child to enjoy! 😂🌟
thanks for the video! I thought I already knew all the cut and beta content but I actually ended up learning new things ^^ appreciate your dedication to the series
Hey there Trashkats, I think this is the first time we've spoken it's nice to meet you! 😃🎉
The Dark Cloud series is the gift that keeps on giving when it comes to beta content haha! I'm happy that there is now a comprehensive video detailing DC 2 Dark Dark Chronicle's cut content!

Great video as Always! Didn't know manu things related ti the beta content! Keep It up, you're almost at 1000 subs man!💪
Hello again Pier, it's nice to hear from you and I hope all is well! 😁
Haha translating the menu was honestly a bit of a pain since photoshop didn't want to work for me but i'm glad that we did, we've had those photos for 3 years and they were never properly translated which boggled my mind, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! ✌😁
@@DarkCloudCompendium thanks to you for sharing, I bought again dark Cloud and Chronicle for PS4 because of your videos ahah keep It up as Always💪
Dude. I\ love this channel. I'll be back after I comprehend all this information
It's so nice to hear from you again Pride! 😄✌
Awesome I look forward to hearing your thoughts 🌟
Absolutely man! I have plenty for you
2nd comment:
Two things.
What would you want to see in a dark cloud 3? / what would you expect?
(Maybe it could be a video?)
And maybe you can post the cutscenes in game on youtube. Nostalgic reasons mostly.
Always love the content btw!
I'd love to do a video on what I would want from Dark Cloud 3 for a while now, perhaps I'll do one around the Summer time! I want to try to do a full playthrough with debug mode and free camera enabled I think that would be a lot of fun! 🎉
I'm glad you enjoy the videos and I won't take that for granted. Thanks for all of the support and kind words Brandon 😄
The intro lol. I need to rewatch DC2 cutscenes cause I don't remember when Monica saud those lines lol
Speaking of Monica her voice actress voiced Lebreau in the Final Fantasy XIII trilogy games. Yet she went uncredited for Monica in DC2. So if you ever wanted to hear what an "older" Monica could sound like look up voice clips for Lebreau, mew.
Said actress also voices Cera in the Land Before Time series, ever since the 5th movie.
=)
I just randomly remembered all that lol. XD
Descendant, would be more obvious if she is related to Seda, but at the same time I feel like DC2 is set in an alternate of the DC1 world, unless there's something to convince me that my original idea of the two being tge same is "correct" even if slightly, that'd be an amazing find.
But even than a descendant of an alternate Seda is also possible lol, anything likely is.
*shutters* the thought of two Agas, oh gods that'd be something and a bad idea, a very bad idea.
Mild musings to myself for that. Lols. XD
My named mentioned, took me by surprise. X3
I'll probably leave several comments attached to the these as I go through, maybe, lul
Some of its spheda, like the 2/3 lines including do you want me to explain it again I think.
@@kyan3022 ahh. I haven't seen those in scenes in so long that I forgot, thanks. =)
DC2 battle is a.... My brain.... Ooooooh!!! 😲💥💫
Finally, it’s so nice to see your videos, this cut content sure is interesting to watch, wonder why they scrap all of this? A lot of if it’s pretty cool and it would have been awesome to see it in the game
Hey there Evarksman I hope you enjoyed the holidays! 🎉 🙂
Thank you for the kind words and support, I think a lot of the cut content can be attributed to either the lack of time or the team finding something else that worked better however i'm still disappointed they removed the Macho Sword 😂
@@DarkCloudCompendium If I had to guess, I think the reason why they removed the Macho Sword is because it wouldn't make sense for Monica to wield it, being a princess. Funnily enough, I remember actually using that sword specifically in the first game to build up to the Chronicle Sword, which I resorted to because I carelessly broke my Lamb's Sword (weapon durability in the first game is a pain in the ass). Having said that, and it seems like a strange and silly choice for Monica of all possible characters to have access to a sword like the Macho Sword if you ask me
Waiting on the eventual reveal that Kazarov Stonehenge was originally going to be a fully-fledged dungeon.
You can't hide this forever, Level 5!
Hey hey Gargantuanmaskedfish! Hahahahaha I'll keep my eyes out for any evidence that suggests that :)
I think when they scrapped the other alternative paths in the dungeons, I think they made it up by adding several paths in the Zelmite mine.
Also Question my all knowing dark cloud man,
Other than the location it was published, are there any other differences between dark cloud and dark chronicle?
Hey there Brandon, it's so nice to hear from you again and I hope you enjoyed the holidays! 🎉🌟
That would actually make a lot of sense Zelmite Mines had a lot of extra pathways, I could see them dedicating the tome and resources for the Underground channel's paths and giving it to Zelmite!
I think that the only difference between DC 2 and Dark Chronicle is that DC 2 North Ameircan and Dark Chronicle Japan play at 60hrz where as the PAL Dark Chronicle plays at 50hrz meaning the Japanese and North American versions play smoother and faster but it seems that both Dark Chronicle and Dark Cloud 2 are exactly the same game content wise aside from the fee localization changes I noted in the video :)
Keep up the good work 😉 I like that intro it’s nice
Fancy meeting you here! 😉 Keep up your content too, it's super cool. If you want to grow your channel remember to use tags on your videos that helps out a lot! 🎉
For smaller channels TH-cam is a grind but you get what you put into it!
@@DarkCloudCompendium I’m sorry for what I said in the comment section you seem cool 😎 keep it up your almost at 1k subs that’s nice
@@randyorton1807 Right back at you don't even worry about it 😊 If you need any helpgrowing your channel let me know i'd be more then happy to offer advice ✌🌟
@@DarkCloudCompendium thanks 🙏 I will be starting my channel when I get to 30 subs
great video!! i actually hadnt seen that early model of monica before, its super interesting how she had the same general design that early on but was just proportioned differently, yknow? i kinda like it! ^^
also for the record i would not want to be friends with donny hes a little weirdo >:T i dont wanna be mean to him because he is just a kid after all but morton seriously needs to get his kid LOL
Hey Judy it's nice to hear from you again and I hope you enjoyed the holidays! 🎄
We actually ended up finding that model of Monica a few years back it actually matches her appearance in the concept art which is really cool to see!
Hahaha I thought of you where I wrote that line about Donny I was like, "Well Jude isn't going to like this" 😂🌟
yknow im not quite sure how to explain this but i knew you had me in your thoughts when you said that line LMFAO how despicable
You could have at least said thank you haha! 🎵 😂@@judy5346
Somewhere on Reddit i found a weird texture mod for Mónica
These games are timeless! 🤠
I got to play and beat Dark Cloud 2 so I could see this video! ;o;
Hello Zetayoru, it's nice to hear from you again and I hope all is well! ✌🎉
Haha oh that's exactly it, there is no spoilers in this video aside from the dungeon names so feel free to jump in or revisit the video later on! 😁🌟
@@DarkCloudCompendium Oh! No spoilers! That’s perfect although I just got the game again, so I’ll definitely revisit! Thanks a lot for the podcasts as well, it’s always a great listen while I work during the daytime! Keep doing what you’re doing my friend! You’re a huge part of the community that keeps us alive!
@@taidakun_ig Thank you for the kind words Zetayoru,, I'm happy to provide the community with content that we never had before like deep dive beta videos and podcasts! There's more different types of Dark Cloud videos that I would like to do as well to give the Dark Cloud community even more different content to enjoy!
I'll be sure to give you a shoutout in the next podcast!!
Wait I just had a flash. (Not really related) my copy of White Knight Chronicles 2 that I've been playing with for many years is a press disc. OMG does someone need it?
YOOOOO that's so cool Daryl, I wonder if there's a White Knight Chronicles Reddit or Discord! Did you learn anything new from thus Dark Cloud 2 Beta Extravaganza 🥳
@@DarkCloudCompendium Yes, I had no idea about the beta models as well as the debug menu and Macho Sword X)
First
😃🎉🌟 Yay! 🌟🎉😃
