This could have been great, with a real narrator. I can’t with the AI voice. 😞
Yeah, unfortunately, the AI voice kinda threw me off a few times. Sometimes it stops in the middle of a sentence, sometimes it doesn't stop when it should, sometimes it pronounced things incorrectly (in a mythos where it's already hard to pronounce things, lol)
Aside from that, all the research, editing, and scripting for this vid was done well
Same
I wish they had to put it in the title so I don't get my hopes up
Speed it up to 1.5, it flows way more naturally.
@@thegamersconclave8709 That's a great idea, actually! I think I'll give that a shot. I had to do the same thing when listening to the audiobook of an actor who slurred from long-term drug abuse. Idk why I didn't think of that for this lol
The Nuclear Sultans is one hell of a band name
AI voice, and a load of fanfiction works not commissioned by lovecraft or his legacy.
"He claimed he couldn't help but respect a being that ALMOST succeeded."
- Even the fire vampires need to rest after that burn. 🤣
Lmao 😂😂
Funny thing about the Elder Things is the group that came to Earth are basically an amish group who rejected their extremely high tech and focused more on biology. There is a colony of Elder Things somewhere on the galaxy in a binary star system I believe
Triple star is more suitable i think.
I’ve been an avid fan and reader of Lovecraft’s work since I was a teenager and this is the first time I can say I actually understand the bulk of the Cthulhu Mythos universe and its timeline.
Great video!
I really like this. It’s very much like what I imagine any timeline in an actual Mythos story to be.
Every record inside the Mythos is the result of dark experiments and the madness that comes to all who are even slightly successful in learning any of it. Even those who acquire the most informative volumes are incapable of making sense of what they find. They always require more knowledge from other volumes that are themselves incorrect, incomplete, and even incomprehensible.
It’s an endless cycle of madness. It’s contradictory. It’s unimaginable. It’s hopeless.
This is good. Well done!
But its barely a timeline at all. He tells us what happened a billion years ago, then suddenly jumps to a half hour long summary of a Lovecraft story involving the alien/monster billions of years in the future.
Lets make a video about the timeline of events in the cthulhu mythos
*Video is mostly made up of non lovecraft works*
I mean I get that lovecraft wasbt very clear at times and didnt really attempt to connect most of his stories, but its hard to call it a timeline of the cthulhu mythos when most of the stuff isnt even from lovecraft.
Yep that's what happens when other authors get involved. It was inevitable, even though Lovecraft wanted others to expand on his stories, that they'd stray heavily from the essential themes that he put down. I enjoy the other stories for what they are--science fiction with some Lovecraftian elements
It didn't even start with H.P. Lovecraft. There were clear antecedents, with Ambrose Bierce, Edgar Allen Poe, Robert W. Chambers and in the case of the Dreamlands stories, Alfred, Lord Dunsany all preceding Lovecraft.
Stuff to do with Hastur, Carcosa and Lake Hali came from Bierce and Chambers. At the Mountains of Madness re-interpreted Poe's Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket.
The Cthulhu Mythos Timeline is an entertaining and edifying labor of love which although completely worthwhile suffers from a slight unevenness on various levels but is, ultimately, a must-listen for Cthulhu enthusiasts.
I’m glad you enjoyed it. If you could provide detailed insights on this video, I might take them into account for the next part.
Great video with great research on the topic, great job you get a sub👍
I like how Lovectaft, Derleth, Chambers, etc had a shared literary universe
Lovecraft is the man!
Thank you.
this is a very interesting video about the Cthulhu mythos
This is extremely misinformed video lol
@@ziadhulhok who cares, it was enjoyable and nice to hear, i mean if someone wants to be really informed about it they should buy the books and read only the cannon, but i still enjoyed this video
@@NecrontierGoBrrrr well this is almost equivalent of saying that you are studying something only for fun even tho you know the actual study is infinitely more fun than this. Because the actual cosmological video on the Cthulhu mythos is far more crazy than you understand. Arguably the largest in fiction and remember that The Supreme Archetype is the ultimate Master of the Cthulhu mythos. Not azathoth. He is fodder on his own verse.
@@ziadhulhokThen you have woefully misunderstood the essence of the Mythos.
Well done and contradictory as the people who came after Lovecraft as far as continuity goes 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Cthulhu isn't a high priest of Azathoth or this would have been mentioned in call of Cthulhu in examples of the temples he had built to Azathoth , even Lovecraft didn't try to establish such continuity in his own work but preferred flowery expressions and descriptions over solid continuity, All of Cthulhu references to his god Azathoth are non existent so no not a priest of anything because nothing is preached. It's Ok to have this inconsistent timeline as an outline. The mythology progressed beyond Lovecraft and without supervision or moderator so, it already happened and was explained as such and such by each Author without anyone in charge of continuity. If words really represented their literal meaning you could make a more accurate narrative.
It’s supposed to be contradictory and inaccurate. No mortal may know all the mysteries. Each neophyte is only given a glimpse at what lies beyond before they are consumed. Those who come after learn only fragments of those glimpses that were recorded by those who are no more. None can with certainty say what is true or false, right or wrong, real or imagined.
Dudes a bot right? Like am I crazy?
You're not crazy lol
You are crazy.
My birthday is July 7th let's go lol now I have my own fantasy comet
Is this solely based on the original works of Lovecraft or does it also include stories from other authors?
Damn you have no idea how long I’ve looked for this specific video
Your voice is the only one I can tolerate narrating this lmao
Hard pills to swallow: most of Lovecraft wasn't Lovectaft. Lovecraft was participating in an already existant occult fanfiction, and even in his publishing career, he had original contemporaries doing the same thing. Not even Poe dreamed in a vacuum.
Lovecraft succeeded in making this ongoing cosmic-horror "dreamtime" to become real and immediate to the daily life and banalities of the segregated south. It is now the "Cthulhu mythos" because of this exceptional genius.
How about Savage Henry?
Shaun or Faun
is that norman jayden?
People complian about ai narrator but this is only way we can handle the unfathomable terrors of the mythos and forbidden knowlage
This whole thing was ruined with the use of an ai read over. If you going to make interesting content dont be lazy and use an AI read over. Thumbs down
Nice computer voice. Give the job to a human narrator or learn yourself
huh?
I am getting really sick of these AI voices!! Stop it!!!
Na I won't watch the "anime recap" AI voice. You could have paid for a voice mask, spoke this yourself into a mic and stayed unknown. But that's work who wants to work
We use a premium voice now, soon will hire a narrator
Dude does this even contain any Lovecraft in it? Fanfiction is a nice hobby, but it's not for me
Use to listen to audio books on tapes… people crying over ai voice are just to needy lol
😂 Everybody is loving what races Made.
