Scythe Lore (Happy's Humble Burger Farm/Northbury Grove)

Well here we are this week with March's Lore video. This time with a really cool series and fictional universe called the "Scythe Universe". This video covers all of the youtube videos and games from Scythe Dev Team that have been published so far, and some light speculation in my wrap-up towards the end about what the future holds. The making of this video was a fever dream so I honestly don't know what to say about it. If you had any questions when you played Happy's Humble Burger Farm, Northbury Grove, Cultists and Compounds, Carthanc, or To The End of Days, you might understand it a little better with this video explaining the chronology and universe. Anyways, linking Scythe Dev Team's games below. Hope you guys enjoy!

I like how, on the surface, this franchise looks like just another mascot horror game, but the simulation twist in the first burger game is SUCH a cool and freaky twist!

[@A10N50]

I finally found someone actually talking about the strange connected universe between these games

[@BigMoneyNik]

Your channel deserves a lot more attention. I love the quality of the deep dives on off beat horror games. Keep it up, bro!

[@doctordirck]

I appreciate you acknowledging the work I put into my videos and it makes me happy to know you enjoy them. Thank you!

[@wesleyfilms]

Blows my mind that I’ve played two games in this mythos without even realizing it.

[@jon_of_the_shred]

49 minute vid on the lore? Very interested to watch this and see what your conclusions are!
47:27 The computer citing Maverick Cooper instead of Zaine Grimm was 100% a typo, it should have said Zaine Grimm, who reveals it to Scythe while in an interview WITH Maverick.
The voice actor swap can canonically be explained as Maverick Cooper hiring a doppelganger to hide his presence. The real Maverick Cooper is the one working at New Elysian Talk Radio in HHBF. (Full disclosure, I started voicing the character so that any time we needed lore dumps or exposition I could record it myself in the form of an investigative journalist in-universe.)

Extremely comprehensive breakdown of lore, maybe the most in-depth and wide-reaching breakdown of the greater lore I've ever seen. Great work!

[@doctordirck]

Thank you, that's very high praise coming from you. It's very nice of you to have taken the time to not only watch my video on your guys' work but take the time to talk about my thoughts as well. Thanks again, I loved your guys' games.

[@StrangeC8]

I found you from your feverdream video. Im definitely along for the ride now. Keep up the good work!

[@doctordirck]

I'm very glad to have you as a fan. Thank you for the kind words!

[@ktnamgyal5741]

Yup, that's true hard work and dedication to the lore and not biased speculations😊, thank you

[@doctordirck]

I'm glad you think so, thank you very much!

[@ktnamgyal5741]

@@doctordirck you got it, better than anything and so we all appreciate what you do for the lore and how you respect the game and it's ideas.

[@davemardrov777]

I know of two scythe universes now. Cool!

[@Jaxxione]

i have been searching for a video that has the lore of northbury grove and happys humble burger farm all together thanks!

[@doctordirck]

I'm glad that it helped you and that you enjoyed it, you're welcome!

[@saymana11]

Here's me commenting for engagement! You're my favorite lore tuber with little views, and your analysis of game stories shows you have a strong understanding of storytelling in general not just games.

[@doctordirck]

Thank you! That's both a very nice gesture, and a very kind thing for you to say I appreciate them both.

[@danielsantiagopay]
