This is the video I was working on before the unfortunate news last week, so it might be a big tonal shift for some. Hope you're all doing well

My head cannon for the Dryad turning into a tree is her returning as one with nature. Not necessarily "passing on" as in dying, but in a way where she can finally rest after all that has happened. I think she was more so created by the world to help protect the world with the other Dryads.

One thing that a dev green lit for accepted lore via a tweet:
Witch Doctor is deathly allergic to bees. This is why that NPC isn't around until after you kill the Queen Bee.

[RickTheSmugLord]

I'd Imagine the Dryad is going into a Hibernation state until the next big threat reemerges.

Crazy that Chippy can go an entire video talking about the credits without mentioning that he's in them lmao

[eltiolavara]

i do love how they casually befriend lizahrds after you've gone to their temple, killed 2000+ of them and killed their golem ten times for money

[SirGiradon]

I love that some npcs get bittersweet endings that some up their whole characters, meanwhile the demolitionist just goes out for a pint

[armoredanteater]

I love that the Pirate basically adopts the Angler. Found family at its finest

[nbboxhead]

The Truffle being eaten by the clothier: bad ending
The Guide being eaten by a zombie: neutral ending
The Guide:

[princess_anon]

"The world is cleansed, I must go." -The Dryad becoming a tree

Me with some Crimson seeds: *I wonder what happens if I-*

[vDice]

I just realized how much lore I missed just by not paying attention to the credits

[Schenkel]

Funny how the Dryads managed to completely dismantle Cthulu, but weren't able to destroy his heart, which is how you kill him in game.

[dozingoff]

I like to imagine the Truffle and Clothier have a bit of a Tom and Jerry type thing going on. Endlessly chasing each other and only occasionally getting a break from one another

[bruisedbug]

5:47 One of the skeleton merchant dialogues mentions how he lost his hand so he finally finds it in the credits :)

[XTadzioX]

The Clothier gets a good ending. He finally realizes his greatest wish to eat the Truffle, and even if imprisoned, he's still happy. After all, he likes the Cave biome as he is already used to the Dungeon lifestyle, it was the curse that made him miserable.

[Solesteam]

7:12 I suspect the dryad was a tree up until the eye is defeated, hence why she's never been found, she was hiding in plain sight, or more accurately lying dormant waiting for the player and now that they're either gone or the planet no longer needs saving, she returns to a dormant state. Perhaps like an actual tree she needs to produce seeds to plant more dryads for future generations to protect the world from further threats, since relying on a single all powerful hero for long isn't exactly wise in the off chance they turn evil.

[RussGussDoodles]

The credits are absolutely perfect, except for the fact the Stylist doesn’t get a segment! Like why out of all the NPCs is she excluded? Chippy lowkey needs to ask Red why she’s left out.

[SamuelChungHang]

Everyone getting good and nice ending
Truffle npc:NO NO NO NO NO WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT

[hoosfire]

I mean... you fight a giant floating eyeball. Was the lore being crazy really unexpected 😂

[Solesteam]

5:15 I think this depends on your playthrough completion, if you at any point before or after the moonlord (assuming the credits take place in a distant future once the player returns to wherever they came or disappears into nothing or whatever.) kill duke fishron in that world, the angler doesn't catch anything and was pranking the captain, otherwise....
R.I.P Pirate Captain.
R.I.A Angler.
