To clarify I think we all know the deal with how these videos work, typically I play a game and cover its entire story. This time however, I will be covering the entire lore of specifically layer 7 of Ultrakill. When all content has been released I will combine said videos in addition to adding in a few extra details and corrections for a full lore video. - Zábava
In case ya'll didn't know I do intend on making a full lore video of Act 3! When all layers, secrets and the final pantheon have been released I will be covering everything else I missed into a collection of one video
Oh yeah, as I was exporting the video I found out that to my horror I missed a text in 7-4. The text reads as follows:
"THIS IS THE ONLY WAY IT COULD HAVE ENDED.
WAR NO LONGER NEEDED ITS ULTIMATE PRACTICIONER. IT HAD BECOME A SELF-SUSTAINING SYSTEM. MAN WAS CRUSHED UNDER THE WHEELS OF A MACHINE CREATED TO CREATE THE MACHINE TO CRUSH THE MACHINE. SAMSARA OF CUT SINEW AND CRUSHED BONE. DEATH WITHOUT LIFE. NULL OUROBOROS. ALL THAT REMAINED IS WAR WITHOUT REASON.
A MAGNUM OPUS. A COLD TOWER OF STEEL. A MACHINE BUILT TO END WAR IS ALWAYS A MACHINE BUILT TO CONTINUE WAR. YOU WERE BEAUTIFUL, OUTSTRETCHED LIKE ANTENNAS TO HEAVEN. YOU WERE BEYOND YOUR CREATORS. YOU REACHED OUT FOR GOD, AND YOU FELL. NONE WERE LEFT TO SPEAK YOUR EULOGY. NO FINAL WORDS, NO CONCLUDING STATEMENT. NO POINT. PERFECT CLOSURE.
T H I S I S T H E O N L Y W A Y I T S H O U L D H A V E E N D E D ."
Not sure what this means as of now, but I'll let the text sit with me for a while until I can analyse it. Comment your thoughts and let me know what other lore you want covered next!
(I apologise for this rookie mistake).
It should be noted that Hell speaks with red & sometimes spaced out text. It’s likely Hell remarking & admiring Humanity’s death & its ultimate war machine: Earthmover. Why Hell wrote in a book, I have no clue.
@@ItzInkOn the one hand, it could be the Hell speaking. On the other... What if V1 is gaining its own consciousness? The pages of that book are blank
@@KorbAgain we know it’s Hell because during an arg we see a human message warning about hell being sentient be cut off by the same red & spaced out text. I believe you can find it on google
@@ItzInksomething to note is that at the bottom of the text it is written that the pages of this book are blank, which would indicate that hell is using the book as a way to directly communicate with you specifically and nobody else
@@MagmaBombe Possibly… tho I still don’t understand why Hell wrote in a book, as Hell is seen directly speaking to us (7-3’s line of “F E E D I T”)
fun fact: when the earthmover see's you, he isnt doing a war scream, he screams bc he knows that V1 is a threat to him and try to exterminate you immediately

@@WildCard203I also do mechanicalised horse with rabies noise when I see a spider
why do you think this?
@@thethumbisafinger it's implied that V1 was made to counter earthmovers
@@Aestareth_ not directly, but yes. however, the Earthmover was obviously made before V1 and thus was not programmed with V1 in mind. It just sees something that might be fun to blow up.
I love how ultrakill somehow is the game with "funny gopro with spare change" to a game with "holy hell everyone is miserable even the angels"

12:44 slight correction: it was much more likely that hell itself was the one responsible for the creation of the mannequins. note how the terminal entry states “forces from far beyond” rather than “heaven”, as heaven is extremely unlikely to have been watching humanity since they wanted little to no contact with them
but the first word has the same amount of words as king, and since the last 2 primes were kings, dont you think this could be the 3rd prime's creation?
Just wanted to throw it out there that the Minotaur being crossed out is a reference to House of Leaves - a story about an unforgiving and un comprehensive hallway that seems to stretch and turn at will, causing a malicious labyrinth that seems to constantly be changing to hurt the main characters!
The crossing out of the Minotaur's name in HoL is specifically also a metaphor regarding an artist's shame in respect to what they have made, if I remember correctly.
@@natqevalhiindisguise141 yeah i just didn’t want to shove the entire synopsis of the book into a youtube comments section
in ultrakill it refers to minos’s shame rather than the artists
That book is amazing!!!!!! I Iove it!!! It's so creepy
When I first fought the minotaur and saw its name crossed out I was legit giddy I love house of leaves and seeing the reference put the connection in my head of the labyrinth of violence and the house on ash tree lane. Just how much hate embodies both environments. And how the desperation of the minotaur of ultrakill parallels that of navidson. It scratches my brain in just the right way
So glad that murder is no longer frowned upon. society has truly grown
the Jubokko in my backyard has truly grown
This makes me realize, if something like murder becomes popularized, wouldn’t the generations born with that connotation think of the current time like we think of pre civil rights movement south. With people lacking whatever trait, possibly empathy (if they thought of murder as a compassionate act), being commonly accepted or normal?
@@meem6154thats never gonna happen, no normal person wants to get killed
@@meem6154 Only in a world where everyone has lead poisoning
@@JuhoSpriteits an interesting thought about progress though. How far will human morals evolve before they stop progressing? What things are unacceptable today that will be normal 50, 60, 70 years from now?
Earthmovers are the only other Supreme Machines other than V1 & 2, and the Earthmovers acknowledged you, an ant to it and very rightly saw you as a threat to be eliminated.
V1's specs makes sense when you think about how the Earthmovers were designed. It held hundreds or even thousands of people, and it was mostly impervious to direct attacks. People were safe there, and factories to pump out machines and generate power for the Earthmovers were also safe.
So how do to destroy something like that? From the inside, the machine needed to be fast, agile and smart. It needed to carry heavy fire power and multiples of weapons to deal with resistance, now the the problem of refueling, instead of having V1 be like other machine that need a refuel station why not make use of the bloodshed? Fresh blood spilt on it will refuel it, so with an ever decreasing supply, it needed to hunt for blood.
Now we have our idea. V1 was built around just before the end and right before they could approve and mass produce it.
V1 was meant to kill the people aboard, dismantle protection and destroy the Earthmovers from inside. We saw first hand if V1 was let loose on the world where near world ending machine could be nothing more than a stroll for us.
Two titans fighting each other, even though there's nothing left to protect or conquer and both are unable to kill their opponent, an endless, pointless struggle.
You could say V1 freed that earthmover from this eternal suffering, from this...
War without reason.

Yea man we don't know frfr
Neh it's be Minecraft or terraria
No it's going to be about how I ventured into Cleveland whilst being chased by Danny DeVito in the parking lot that one time.
@@WildCard203 oh thanks for explaining
interesting lore bit about the new machines is the fact that the earthmover (at least the one we fight) is probably japanese seen from the warning signs all over it
meanwhile the guttertank is probably german having the text "faust panzer" (fist tank) written on its punching arm
Ah interesting! Didn't know that about the Guttertank :0
I imagine that Hell sort of copies different manufactures so long as the machines have the same purpose of engaging in war.
I'm glad they didn't just use English since the different languages further emphasise that the whole world was at war.
@@WildCard203 yeah i just randomly found it while messing around
its also really interesting to speculate about if the machines were even made by a single company which layer 7 pretty much debunks
another detail i noticed is that a pictogram of a robot looking similar to v1 or v2 is featured on one of the earthmovers warning signs
maybe implicating that they knew about the v model or even were the people behind the creation of it
hakita just left so many details around to look for and theorize about
@@enxorbyte YEAH this as well! Very curious as to why the V1/V2 model was there when only one of each had existed by that time.
Perhaps, those who made the Earthmovers expected that the V1 models would be in full production pretty soon.
@@WildCard203 by seeing how fast the factories were producing new tech it would make sense to account for future tech thats being developed in the arms race
not doing so could open up for direct security flaws and ways to defeat the meachines
with that it would be plausible v1 was built in japan or at least for it
The guttering is Russian. People reportedly saw "ch-1" (in Cyrillic thoigh) on them
hakita once said "look at the inside of an earthmover and extrapolate that to how other machines might preserve blood." Machines are exactly like mannequins.
Well hell did base the mannequin off the the gutter men
this feels like a hint regarding what might be inside of US as V1
@@simonsoupshark8009 just... a human? sorry i don't get wym
Here’s what i imagine
Larger machines will transport humans inside them (like Guttermen), or at least a sample of human bone marrow to keep them afloat
Smaller machines will have a tank inside of them to keep blood fresh for extended periods of time before they absorb it
V1 is V1.
I think machines like gutterman need a living source, while small machines like V models and Swordsmachine just have a blood tank that they always have to refill.
i want to make a slight correction:
its been confirmed by hakita that if a husk dies in hell they die forever, the blood enemies, which are called "puppets", thus physically cannot be sinners brought back from the dead, this is why death is a rare privilege in hell as its an escape from punishment. so puppets are more likely apparitions of blood created by hell so V1 (or anyone really) can feed the trees
The puppets committed suicide.
@@gneu1527 no those are the trees
9:44 I've heard that hell is entertained by our (V1) chaos, which is how we can even continue from what I know. So I think the reason we, V1, don't get lost in the maze is because hell *wants* us to continue, hell wants the entertainment of V1's destruction.
Fun Fact:When you kill Minotaur,he tries to look up at the light in his final dying moments.
For the final time.
You missed one book, on 7-4 after the security system fight you can jump on top of the building on the right.
the blank spaces in the minotaur terminal entry fit with "HELL ITSELF", which would make sense
Yeah well so does poop carton
I like how 7-2 through 7-4 covers a part of ultrakill lore that the game hasn’t covered as much as we have seen.
1:19 So let me get this straight. If you keep too much money to yourself, you get sent to the Layer of Greed. But if you spend too much money, you go to a deeper Layer of Hell made for people that hurt everyone, including themselves. No matter what you do with your money, you're going to Hell.
I thought Dante's Inferno couldn't get any worse...
Technically they go to both, Greed contains the ones that hoarded wealth and the ones who recklessly spent. I think the difference in punishments comes to intent. The ones who spent recklessly because they wanted stuff get sent to circle 4, the ones who spent recklessly for the sake of buying go to circle 7.
@@explodingpancakeofawesomen8594 Good to know. Thanks for clearing that up.
the people who get sent to heaven are rng gods at this point
I dunno if it’s mentioned, but if I recall the Minotaur (and the entirety of the garden of forking paths outside of the mannequins) is also kinda either a homage or reference to a book known as the house of leaves (for context: the Minotaur of the house of leaves not only shares the crossed out name and sentences when mentioned, but even has its text displayed in red)
the garden of forking paths isn’t taken from House of Leaves. instead, it takes inspiration (at least in name) from a short story by Jorge Luis Borges named, well, The Garden of the Forking Paths.
@@insertcontent73 huh, never knew that, I just thought it was similar to garden of leaves because of the Minotaur’s name being crossed out
during the entire earthmover section, i was PRAYING he mentioned the v1 being made to kill earthmovers theory, and he did!!!
Also, i think this may be about ultrakill.
i love the neat camera shots and how they episodically show the lore of the violence layer. stuff like the husks being turned into mannequins and minos sending the minotaur to the garden of forking paths, it's really neat stuff.
Thank you haha. Wasn't really sure what to put during those segments but I figure I had a little fun with the sandbox feature. Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
@@WildCard203 no problem
According to the spawner arm’s enemy editer, the bloody figures from 7-3 are called “Puppets”
I wonder why.
cause they mimic behaviors of other enemies sometimes
@@Neospection but who's the puppeteer? hell?
@@lavendermintyy probably
@@lavendermintyy it was me, barry!
@@lavendermintyyYes, Hell Itself
Durring the intro to the game V1's firmware update states that the current year (or at least when V1 was created) is 2112. The terminal states that the Final War was a 200 year long arms race, doing the math we can infer that the Final War started in 1912...
That would explain the trench warfare and old aesthetic of the Guttermen and if anything raises more questions about V1, I was always under the impression thet V1 was largely responsible for the extinction of humanity, but I'm not too sure given the date of it's firmware update and the implied duration of the new peace.
There was a significant time between humanity dying and V1's creation. He was most likely off for a long, LONG while, considering there was the great peace and V2
Yeah, I think it was actually hell itself that killed humanity
@@gusgilmanreal more like a combination of both the Final War and Hell, since in a secret ARG, it is said that hell is sentient and cunning, and considering that Hell was intercepting messages to prevent any complications of its takeover and entertainment, combined with Hell utilizing the machines after re-constructing them with its influence and the terminals as well, it was game over for humanity, the moment they had free will, and knowledge that is their downfall and hubris.
"together we are ultrakill"
Benjamin-
I don’t know if anybody cared but idols protecting the earthmove could show that humans used idols or that the earthmovers are able to “adapt” to use other technologies
Well, idols were carved by the fairy man, so it was the second option
Or hell modified the earthmover
I don’t think the blood puppets seen in the first area of 7-3 are just Husks coming back to life. Rather it’s probably just something to do with Hell itself forming bloody recreations of other creatures, hence the red text to tells you to feed to tree. It’s specifically bringing the puppets out for you.
Hell itself most likely also kept the Earthmover in 7-4 pinned down for entertainment reasons.
16:28 i like how he know the name mean is. 1000 is sen in japan and THR, respresent as centaur
oh that makes so much sense with the earthmover resembling a centaur and the japanese text on it
What about "center"
He said center
7:53
This actually a reference to Mark Z. Danielewski's novel
_House of Leaves._ At least, it is heavily impilied.
12:31
One of my favorite theories i say that the great war was simply WWI. Instead of ending, I turned into never-ending arms race.
WWIII fits more due to the technology
And if it was WWII it would be funny because you could say V1 and V2 were nazi robots
Maybe, but at that time, technology was nowhere near advanced enough to create fully-automatic and sentient machines that function from blood, plus ultrakill takes place in the 22nd century, making it all the less likely. Unless the war simply lasted THAT long
A theory i saw on another comment section is that earthmovers are actually all dead, but were sent to hell as living being , but more importantly send to the desert you described at the beginning of the video, therefore earthmovers offended God itself, which is also very coherent with the book you find on him (the one written in the pinned comment by WildCard).
That would explain why the terminal says earthmovers all died , and yet we see them alive in a land with no sun.
Oh, I wonder if it was my comment which inspired you! I left it on the earthmover soundtrack video soon after the update released. Though I'm pretty sure I am far from being the only person who had this theory, or even the first one
@@user-nc5xo4es8h Oh it's funny, I checked "Heaven Pierce Her - War Without Reason (ULTRAKILL 7-4 Theme)" , found a little comment about it (by Aransu) , then found your detailled comment , therefore i might have wrote this comment here thanks to your comment on the song.
The earthmovers are not real beings, I think they were just too dangerous.
Should've mentioned how the Big Johninator is a reference to Dusk's Big John
9:54 uhhh I think you forgot that Hell is completely non-euclidean? It's not like the souls can just go through the elevator that V1 came from, it's literally impossible, for them, it's an actual endless labyrinth with no escape, but Hell wants V1 to progress so it makes an entry and exit for him
No. There is a way in and out of layers. The Ferrymen are capable of doing so.
Before Hell got full, the Ferrymen worked with Gabriel as a way to repent their sins and get closer to Heaven.
Essentially, after a Sinner got their sentencing, they would get in a ferry and they'd travel to their layer.
@@conic2721 probably only the Ferryman is able to "unlock the gates" to each layer
The enemies sèe the exit but they cant go and it sad
When your method of pain is so screwed up that HELL ITSELF takes notes!
8:05 fun fact: the -minotaur- looks up before he dies trying to see the sky. depressing stuff
14:54 if you use boss health, they are actually called puppets, so, sinners who commit some certain action that get them to the forking paths, but die in the metamorphosis, become blood puppets who are slower and weaker than the mannequins, atleast thats what i believe in
They are suicide people who you cast inside of the tree and they become funny leaf
i would say that the earthmovers feet are probably melted and fused to the floor, seeing as a layer in violence has burning hot sand for ground.
The first level of violence is also a reference to house of leaves. With its long drops, twisting corridors and the minotuar
My favourite theory as well is that every other boss has some kind of intro before their health bar arrives. But not earthmover. Implying that for v1 this was ON SIGHT
there's a secret level where you need streetcleaner's flamethrower
Nice to see you still making ultrakill videos
The day I finally finish layer 7 you make the video I was looking for I’m very happy
I like how no one except 1 guy acknowlege that some of the trees are thick
hey! anpther great video with fantastic editing
i love the research you've done with the greek mythology and the divine comedy, the paper cutout presentations were also appreciated, i love that
hpwever, i think you could have done better with the game presentation, while ultrakill is not a game about staying still, i wished you'd stay to admire some of the environments the game had to offer, for example:
the start of 7-1, you could have stayed there and slowly panned and looked at the surroundings, or followed the path like in hakita's teaser
in 7-4, you coukd have stayed down and watched as the earthmover prepares to shoot you, before getting interrupted by the opponent earthmover, it would have made it much more impactful
and at the end of 7-4 you coudl have looked back and watched the head of the earthmover explode
eitehrway, great video, would love to see this series finished ^^
Glad you enjoyed the video and thank you so much for the detailed feedback! I'll keep these in mind when I'm doing the Act 3 collection, thanks :)
@@WildCard203my pleasure, i always appreciate high effort ultrakill content ^^
14:35 wildcard caught trying to parry with the knuckleblaster
One thing that i have been thinking about this great war and in some texts in the game:
- Probably WW1 never ended or it did end but the arms race continued in a fast pace, but let's stick with the fact WW1 never ended: In this case, we can assume that one or a lot more countries started the production of automatons/machines, we could say the first one was Germany and in this case, Germany was probably winning the war, until another machine was created to counter it, and it goes on and on with more mahcines being created and becoming obsolete, and probably in this case they either discovered hell before the war or during a part where the war was supoosed to end. If we say that during 1918 Germany were Germany surrendered, they managed to created the first machine moved with blood, it says " first machine moved with blood ", we can assume that already other types of machines/automatons were created before it and probably had been dismantled, now let's time skip that, now years has passed, and earthmover is created, i can actually assume that after the first phase ( Probably WW1 because it says it was a trench warfare ) the second phase could be an allegory for ww2, because in the lore of ultrakill, WW1 never actually ended, anyway let's skip a bit more.
The Earthmover design and also the houses resemble an design of something created during the years of 1900 and 1920, lets be cool and say 1910, i think its obvious that even though the technology was progressing, the humanity in this scenario never truly advanced that much because of constant war, and many say that V1 could be American, it sounds insane but for me it sounds German, why? Japan was at war with germamy in WW1, and obviously the signs on the earthmover are japanese, we can say that V1 was created by germany as an last resort to obviously kill the earthmover ( woooah, sorry for being obvious ), also that text in the second secret level talks about an soldier, probably going to die obviously, or is either one of the people who did take part on the expedition of hell, or it's a soldier being killed by an unknown machine.
In short: i can 100% say that Germany was the main creator of the machines, my main argument is that Germany had a lot of engineers, scientists and others that created insane designs and prototypes in WW1 and WW2, now other countries creating them, it's something i still need to found out.
- Also another interesting thing, during the prelude, a lot of those machinery that were transferring and processing blood could be from way back before the humanity was instinct, and probably hell managed to keep it running, so we can say that the moment we start it's probably not the moment the humans went extinct, i can even say that the last Human killed was the text guy on the 2-S, and after he's killed, V1 probably managed to find or either just got the information about the expeditions, and then he went there to get more blood and etc
- Also i forgot about V2 and there is also probably a model called V3 or another type of experimental machine, so V1, V2 and V3 were designed to either: Kill the Earthmover, be some type of police force or an logistics machine, although we never have seen an official V3 machine, just speculation because of the green arm that V2 uses in his second Boss fight.
So, what i can say with all of this?
1- Germany was the main creator of the machines and automatons
2- Expeditions through or the existence of hell was probably already know, but they didn't know how to get inside it, but after the war ended, they probably managed to do it
3- V1 was designed to kill an earthmover and probably some other types of machines, V2 was probably some kinda of police force or was designed to counter V2 or to replace V1 in case he failed in Killing an Earthmover, and V3 was probably a logistical type of machine, or was also designed with another type of combat in mind.
4- The last human was probably killed in 2-S during that text we see in the beginning, and probably everything we see is some kinda of hallucination he is having
5- WW1 many machines, automatons and other things have designs of old building from the 1900s to 1920s or to 1940s, so we can say that, like in fallout 4 were almost nothing changed, we can say that in ultrakill lore during the war, almost nothing changeg.
And finally, I have an very strange theory that says this: Hell was aware about the WW1, so they saw that Germany was going to lose or that the war was going to end, war ending = No more fun for hell, so they probably gave this knowledge to Germany, so they could continue fighting.
Well, looks like even in another Universe, humanity can't live without a war.
Edit: Looks like i forgot some details about the Gutterman, and yep irs russian, so discard the fact that i said it's German, but honestly Germany already made their own version.
this game is incredibly confusing in every conceivable way. AND I LOVE IT
I love how most of the violence layer is personalized for v1. It shows its upcoming and why it was created
"and you hear moaning from a diffirent room and no **not in a good way**" ı can already see that getting edited into 189 illegal forms 💀
Timestamp?
My own theory about why there are machines fighting demons and eachothers everywhere in the layer 7 is that V1 arrived late to the party.
We don't know how much time have passed since the dissappearance of blood on the surface.
For me, all of these machines are here for the same reason as you do, and the violence layer is the place where they all settled down.

Great video! Violence was extremely confusing for me since it introduced so much lore in just one layer and this explaination helped loads
Just one thing: Please try to reduce the clipping in the audio, does make it sound a lot harder to hear.
Also based on the earthmover’s lore entry the final war is world war 1
what
@@aekiyria_according to the boot-up sequence at the beginning of the game, V1's operating system was copyrighted in the 22nd century. And in Benjamin's entry, it states that the war lasted 200 years. Based on the math, that means the war had to begin in the early 1900s. Which in some ways makes sense since the Guttermen were developed to break the stalemate of trench warfare, something widely associated with WW1. I still want to believe this is an oversight though as this would also mean the following technologies existed back then:
1) Blood as a mechanical fuel source.
2) Advanced robotics.
3) Advanced artificial intelligence.
4) 3D printing explosive ordnance.
5) Planes big enough and powerful enough to carry Guttermen as their payload.
@@grimgrahamch.4157 war encourages developement like no other encouragement, Guttermen and aircrafts came first (still needing to maintain a source, such as a human) the guttertanks and a way to manufacture explosives efficiently came soon after, more and more of the war machines are made, earthmovers are all the rage, the swordsmachine gets enough scrap to become it's namesake, V series

I know I’m late to the vid, but this was some good stuff!
those mannequins that attack you after picking up the red skull nearly gave me a heart attack
I have a theory that the Censored name is Kind Nimrod, he was the king who tried to made the tower of babel with the help of humanity, but God seeing this as blasphemy put a curse upon on humanity(aka languages) so that they couldnt understand eachother and stop the construction. But humanity not understanding with one another created way more conflict which led to war, and also the Violence Layer is the only layer to have other language texts aka German, Greek, Japanese. And King Nimrod was also a Hunter and he most likely didnt sculpt the minotaur but rather he trapped and captured it.
Makes a lot more sense than my guess which was king Icarus.

I'll never understand why suicide is considered a sin. That's like the most drastic cry for help a human can utter, and God sends you to hell for it.
I think it's because you are basically rejecting the most scared gift from god, which is life.

You also missed a detail in the text at 19:31, the last part of the text talks about some way out that requires to melt something. In 7-3, is a entrance to a secret level or the P-3, that says "Under Construction ". it is speculated that the text is talking about that place, because a material that must be melted there (I'm sorry im not available to explain that last part about the material, I'm trying my best with my english) I don't remember where I saw bout that but makes too much sense
“You’re free to live your lifestyle and kill anyone you want”
Thank you Wildcard I really needed this push
you forgot about an easter egg reffering to that last part, the reason the words fire and hot enough to melt metal where there was that to hint smth to do. on the one with the trees, if u take enemies who shoot fire and aim them next to a blocked door it opens however it shows that its uncompleted and covered with more metal
Something that I believe is important to always consider is the fact that Hell is a living entity, and can make changes at its whim
I don’t believe the Angels took inspiration from the Gutterman for the Mannequins, rather it was Hell itself. It seems to sometimes altar itself after taking new ideas or inspiration, like the Gutterman. The Earthmovers couldn’t have possibly gone to hell themselves, and so therefore the one we kill is a creation of Hell, hence why it is so fleshy in certain areas and immobile, forced to forever fire at its kin in an eternal stalemate, with sinners in the crossfire. It also makes me think about my theory that blood fueled machines are given a sort of ‘soul’ due to the odd range of emotions they can exhibit outside of their programming, and could therefore be sent to Hell, but there hasn’t been anything to support this
Also something worth noting is that the machines deployed via rockets, or ‘drop pods’ for my fellow scifi enthusiasts, do not seem to be enemies teleported by Hell to fight V1 for its entertainment. Rather, these are machines that have finally caught up with V1 on its rampage of slaughter, using these drop pods to accelerate their journey into Hell. My evidence is that in 7-3 it is machines and the denizens of Hell are fighting each other on opposing sides, which is the first this has happened at least in direct gameplay. I suppose a contradiction is the final fight of 7-4 has guttertanks working with husks, but I think a workaround explanation is that Hell can guide these pods to where it wants them to go
This is not the first time in ultrakill where robots do not fight husks, it was only with swordsmachine and at the end of 7-3, which makes me wonder why. I think they see you as a bigger threat than anything so all of them just focus on you.
But a way to explain it is that V1, V2 and swordsmachine are the only machines so far that need to refuel blood. Gutter robots have a living source so they just fight because yes, and drones are simply just tsundere.
This is a certified Benjamin classic
14:35 Caught trying parry with the knuckleblaster.
cant wait for a year for layer 8 to release
I don't play ultrakill, and only quite literally watch for lore. Now I want to try it-
The minotaurs name being crossed out is a reference to the book house of leaves where most entries about the "minotaur" in the story are colored pink and crossed out
damn, that minotaur love is sad, like imagine being stuck in a maze with your limbs almost falling apart seeking for freedom.
Hey i dont know if you knew this, but there is a secret pistol varient, im just making sure if you knew, because you used the default pistol varient, you dont have to unlock the alternate, but im just letting you know
mannequin introduction was actually so cold lol
Have yall ever noticed that the first "night" in the update post is Silent *Knight* and not *Night*
how delightful
Couple of other notes:
This layer all but confirms that blood is not fuel because it's actually necessarily convenient. Not if the war became machine vs machine rather quickly. It's power is that of the supernatural properties of life essence
I think Hell created its own Earthmovers, with how they're fused to the ground
also note: centaurs guarded part of layer 7, and earth movers are very close in shape to a centaur
If you noclip in the earthmover brain you find a plushie that represents an artist that helped create for ultrakill. If you go over to the other earthmover, you see another artist.
The minotaurs info being crossed out is a refference to House of Leaves.
Damn i gotta start playing this game
I love 7-3, it seems a bit ominous too. (Also there is an earthmover watching over the level)
So the thing about the husks killed by us being reincarnsted as something else is pretty interesting
This theory could mean that as we get lower in layers , there will be more and more and more husks as they are reincarnated in deeper layers
Can’t wait to see what Hakita does with Fraud and Treachery!
4:44 Nice Vsauce reference!
Idk bout you, but I interprited all levels past the first for the violence layer being hell shifting in the name of V1's hell.
Nice video. Where do i get saw :(
Maybe the reason the Minotaur looks somewhat similar too the mannequins is because the same process that happened to escaping sinners partially happened to Minotaur but then he escaped without being fully changed.
I havent seen anyone mention that the boss at 19:00 is a boss from dusk
12:48 I'm pretty sure it's hell who used the guttermen as inspiration
I feel like you have to be actually killing the husks and such on previous floors, because Gabriel in Heresy mentions "Limbo, Lust, Greed... all gone."
I don't think it would make sense for him mourn this if they were just going to regenerate in however many days/months/years.
theres a tiny detail where after the minotaur dies it looks up to the sky in the arena, fulfilling its final wish
Woah.
0:27 damn, I never realized how huge Sysiphus is compared to V1
I do belive that the king of violence is somewhat an artist, someone who seem to be an cannosor and master in the ways of violence, heck he created the minotuer as one of it gifts, very likely insane and the oldest king in hell, aslo it likely the king prison is inside an mannequin, bieng the sculptor of many demons.
The Minotaur is one of the modt saddest bosses ive seen in this game, i dont know what hakita could do to one up it, i mean, a fragile, old, creature that just wants to see the light of day despite being blind?
The fact that ultrakill got a WAR level just like pizza tower with it WAR level is cool
14:34 Caught trying to parry with knuckleblaster
9:54, it took me 48 minutes to complete this level on my SECOND ATTEMPT, I basically had to try every possible move, I found half the damn secrets before I found out how to progress
I would definitely get lost in the actual thing
V1 being a counter for earthmovers actually makes sense because other earthmovers are unable to destroy each other because the shield are strong enough to nullify their attacks rendering their lasee attacks useless, so the only way to destroy them is by wrecking its insides, which is what V1 just did.
I like the theory about the blood creatures being sinners during reconstruction, although they're called "Puppets", I wonder what that means.
