Why Do You Look Like Me?!

Don't know how many of you have heard, but this morning the composer and audio director for the game Cult of the Lamb passed away. It was a real shock to hear the news as COTL is one of my favourite games, even though I don't post much about it. I had the chance to ask him and some of the dev team a simple question back in 2023 during a orchestral concert of the soundtrack in ACMI, Melbourne. The question was about what his favourite boss theme was (Which his answer was Leshy).

I saw him again during PAX AUS 2024, one of the most fun an chaotic days I've had yet, and getting to be in the crowd out front the giant temple was amazing. I didn't get to directly speak to him again, but he managed to hyped up the whole audience with his impressive DJ set and remixes.

I haven't listened to much of his work outside of the game's universe, but I know for a fact he was a skilled artist. I hope his family, the dev team and the community have their time to mourn and celebrate his life, and we're so lucky to have gotten so much music from him during his time here.

Вот именно, это ему не ресторан ☝️

Translation!! >>> “What kind of ingredients are these?!” “Uh, meat?” “Monster! You can't add more than one!” “Look, either cook it yourself or eat what's cooked.”

Thanks for being active on past posts! Here's a little more DST for you :> PS.: I sketched the moment I was playing with my friend.

Slowly getting through the cast lol. I just wanted to figure out Winona initially but I had to draw her sister and sisters ex(?)

when the mf you suspect to be your long dead uncle randomly says your dads name on a shitty day in the caves

tbh i think Wendy already figured it out like the moment she saw Maxwell BUT THIS IS GOOFY TO THINK AB

Rest in peace River Boy. Thank you so much for all the love you put into your projects, both with and outside Cult of the Lamb. Your music is one of the biggest reasons I love CotL: I couldn’t stop listening to “Praise the Lamb” for days after I first played the game.

I don’t know if anyone from Massive Monster will see this, but I’m so sorry for your loss. Please take it easy and know our hearts are with you. ❤️

This is everything

I love it

well i guess that's something every dst fan secretly (or openly) wants

~ Random Wilson observations ~

He probably came from an upper middle class family (He mentions having a nanny with Mumsy and he managed to get to university despite being kinda crummy at science.)

He probably has no family ties anymore (He's designed to be an immigrant and a university dropout. He probably wasn't that close to his parents either since he needed a nanny and never really mentions them.)

His family probably doesn't mind that he's gone (Again, his family seemed to be at least upper middle class with both parents probably working since he needed a nanny. I don't imagine two decently successful people would be proud to have a son who dropped out. He also never mentions them.)

Crappy puns help distract him from the horrors in The Constant (It's a lot of his dialogue, even when his corpse is being reanimated by a hostile mob he makes a joke)

He never participated in PE or had a job involving physical labor (When he carries something he says 'lift with your back' and he complains about hurting his back with Wolfgang's gym equipment. This implies he doesn't know basic lifting techniques. He also dislikes sports and claims to have never been outdoorsy)

He actively chose a house in the middle of nowhere. (He seems introverted, awkward, and maybe even shy/socially anxious occasionally, which makes it harder to have friends. His eccentricity also probably drove people away. He also seems to have a bit of an ego in the original game)

The Constant humbled him and maybe even more anxious (In the original game he says stuff like "that'll teach him", "That really showed him who's boss" and "take that nature" which is not really seen in DST. He also visibly cowers away from things, like in the CoTL collab trailer)

The Constant also made him more compassionate, empathetic, and maybe even open (He grabs onto Wartox in the Terraria collab trailer when he's in fear. He also leaps into Wanda's arms in one of the animated shorts. He also actively defends the other survivors despite being visibly anxious, unathletic, and even when working on science with Wagstaff.)

He may have studied medicine at some point (Look at his Victorian skin, the fact he can help heal others during The Gorge, he also mentions being able to amputate a limb)

He's definitely one of the only survivors who try to keep things neat and tidy. (He complains about his hair being wet/getting hat head/being poofy when he's in the middle of the wilderness with only a few people. He also throws shade at Maxwell with the chess statues saying he just leaves them everywhere)

He sometimes does things just for the vibe (He says that he likes dust because it feels scholarly with the feather duster)

The biggest reason he's still hostile to Maxwell is because he used him to free himself (He canonically gets Maxwell off the throne. The stage plays implies it was an accident. He's probably aware that he could've ended up like Maxwell if left on the throne for too long and that Maxwell intentionally led him there. It's also implied by the stage plays that the survivors were made to suffer just for Maxwell's own amusement. He also tries to throw hands as soon as he sees Maxwell again.)

He has an accent he's learned to hide (He's supposed to be some sort of European immigrant and even the ones that speak English don't have the same accent as Americans. Even though he's been voice acted twice, both possibly not canon, neither have accents. Immigrants aren't really treated well in America, even back then, so he also has a reason to hide it. Also, Maxwell is canonically British and even he doesn't have an accent in Inevitable)

He likes breakfast food in general (It's easy/cheap to make and he sucks at cooking. Also his favorite food is eggs and bacon in game)

All of these are kinda obvious now that I think about it

Bruh...

I think Wilson needs a favor with Maxy... XD

Translation: "Maxwell, can I have 6 gold?"

Redraw from that one random Filipino joke post from FB... :P
