Babe...wake up..the lore goat drop another banger

[LimitxKing]

fun fact about the IPC, they're the ones giving us the daily training and rewards for doing them. If you click the icon in the bottom left corner you will see it is the IPC

[predatorasap]

IPC After committing the worst war crimes known to man : It's all for the amber lord 🗣🗣

[Ratterer]

I mean there's a world quest in penacony about how the IPC destroyed 7 planets and killed billions of people with a nuclear weapon just for funsies when the intended use of the weapon was to destroy the antimatter legion/annihilation gang

The guy who created the weapon refused to make another one nor give them info on how to recreate it so they held him captive for the rest of his life, and the second he died extracted his memories using memoria to try and take it forcibly. He was so insistent on them never letting it happen again that his consciousness held on and he remained trapped in the dreamscape under watch for multiple decades until you help him escape and set him free

That quest shows really well (along with the loading screen about the ipc) that them doing everything "for qlipoth" is a giant lie they make even their own employees believe. They don't actually follow the preservation and actively go against qlipoth's beliefs, but keeping up that facade is in their best interest to make themselves look better

[PositiviteaTheFirst]

While you're technically right, its Diamond who overall leads the Strategic Investment Department while the Ten Stonehearts are the directors that lead the individual teams within the department.

The Ten Stonehearts draw their power directly from Diamond's Emanator power which was indeed bestowed upon him by Qlipoth.

I'd recommend adding sections in your video so people can hop between all the different factions and go back to the factions they want to learn about again

[Mcpaimon-nuggets]

idk why but i feel like the doctors of chaos are just a bunch of adults trying to comfort a crying blob

[gazakana]

I love how even factions on the same path have more nuance that just "hello fellow friend" and actually have a twist on their personal beliefs, just like religions in reality

Is particularly interesting to me how the ipc view the arquitects in belobog as "outdated" or "primitive", taking advantage of them or moking them, just like the aventurine opinion about our lance, when in reality belobog is a true follower of the preservation, more than the ipc is in the present, it gives so much life to the world

[callmeandoru]

The fact than anti fans and haters are a crucial part of paths and aeons system is so funny to me.

[RoboMuskVsLizardZuckerberg]

you forgot one of IX's follower
The Procrastinator
they say they will introduce them self
_later_

[RePhantomz]

About creed exequy, it was mentioned in simulated universe that one of their goal is to summon terminus to present time.

[danielandrade]

Ok but how do I know if YOU are not a History Fictionologist? That example you gave of a metaphor was way too good.

[monke-mk]

0:32 even Nanook want to destroy Alister huh?

[Phapchamp]

Dont let this video distract you from the fact Dr Primitive likes bananas

[rarusbackyard]

Nice video!

Though I think I wouldn't call IPC "Natural/Ally"

IPC hurt so many planets, civilazations and people so I think the cooperation is straight up evil imo

[Atalante]

This was a really helpful watch, thanks for posting this!

[Mcpaimon-nuggets]

idk why but i feel like the doctors of chaos are just a bunch of adults trying to comfort a crying blob on the floor 😭

[foxtrothermite]

Nice video! Also, if no one minds this, I just came up with an Alignment Chart for the factions:

Lawful Good:
-Xianzhou Alliance
-Belobog (Post-Cocolia)

Neutral Good:
-Astral Express

Chaotic Good:
-Galaxy Rangers

Lawful Neutral:
-The Family

True Neutral:
-Genius Society

Chaotic Neutral:
-Stellaron Hunters
-Masked Fools

Lawful Evil:
-IPC

Neutral Evil:
-The Swarm

Chaotic Evil:
-Annhilation Gang
-Antimatter Legion

Anyways, these are just thw factions I am somewhat confident fit into their alignment, I'd like to hear what other people think are the alignments of the factions not mentioned, or try to correct me here in case I made a mistake.

[drippyHooH]

I love the arbitrators I hope we get to know more about them in next planet
