Shocked and appalled you guys skipped over Zumbo Pumbo from the Iron Throne in Gnome Name Watch.

I went back to the sub and found a pile of gore labeled "Obelia Toobin' by the hatch. My guess is that when I had my dance macabre ghouls kill themselves the splash damage got her as she exited the sub. Got a really nasty letter from Barcus in the epilogue.

Ketheric sends it to Gortash because he knows that this is the “kind of clockwork jiggery pokkery” (the exact words he uses) stuff he likes. Very amusing, and also interesting why Ketheric would do that for him as they clearly dont like each other.

The sudden realization that Gortash truly felt nothing about selling her out, and when she finally gets her revenge and finds there is nothing else for her to do. She becomes scared, truly scared of dying and pleads for you to save her. It felt like being in a room with a loved one who’s just been declared terminally ill. Especially with how powerless you are in this situation, but you can tell that we’ll work through it together in a way that felt real. So good.

2025-02-17 03:23:54 +0000 UTCGortash is the most deliciously evil of the bunch and he's so fun for me to watch. I didn't find his parents until my second playthrough where I learned about him being sold to a warlock, and he didnthe most petty thing and just brainwashed them to adore him eternally I was like, "Wow, I love it." 🤣 Another great VA performance as well.

2025-02-16 22:15:04 +0000 UTCI had an accidental realization that made the grenade-launcher traps turn from a hindrance to hilarious fun: you can pick up the grenades and throw them back at enemies! Or, you can just pick them up and keep them for later uses (see: backpack full of explosives).
