so, ultrakill's violence layer is unbelievably cool. like, i was not prepared for any level of it. but on top of obscenely awesome gameplay and setpieces, it also delivers some REALLY juicy lore, especially about the war that we've been hearing about for so long.

and it's just occurred to me that one figure of time given in a lore entry has revealed so much more context surrounding it than i could ever dream of.

in a terminal entry that i won't be specific about to avoid spoilers, it's stated that the war lasted roughly 200 years. this would be useless if we didn't know when the war ended...

but we do.

in the opening of the game, we see this.

i've always assumed this was the current date, but i only now realize that it's not. it's the last time V1's firmware got an update, which would have to be during the war, since the V1 project was scrapped when it ended. and since we know V1 was made around the end of the war, we can assume the war ended around 2112. 200 years earlier would be somewhere around the 1910s.

all of this makes it extremely likely that this isn't just some fictional war. it's World War 1. this is a world where WW2 never happened, because WW1 never ended. it kept going and going and building and getting more and more horrific until eventually literally becoming the war to end all wars.

this also recontextualizes machines being fueled by blood, as its now clear that the invention of the machines happened in the middle of the war, and its likely that battle was their sole purpose. it always seemed weird to me before, but i had always assumed that machines existed before the war broke out. if their goal has always been to kill, it seems reasonable that the killing should be able to fuel them. only makes it more horrific, though.

Nearly a year after the girl’s disappearance on Halloween night, some Gravesfield locals have begun whispering about seeing her spirit wandering the streets.

There is a boy with her, they say, a boy whose face some claim resembles that of the older Wittebane’s statue.

things two foreign nurses living with us in the UK were willing to accept without question when watching the doctor who christmas special:

dinosaurs

the tardis is bigger on the inside

nicola coughlan being the star in the nativity

mavity

literally every sci-fi/time travel element

things they were not willing to accept:

ruby sunday's name

that the UK government partied during covid (one cried)

matt smith is famous over here

no one complains about the doctor changing accent (appearance is fine but accent is too far?)

that a musical about hamilton exists
