I made this out of complete boredom, and though I know probably no one will ever see this video. this video to me is like a thank you to calamity. ever since I started playing years ago I remember listening to the ost for the first time and getting hooked on it. I don't think I could ever explain the sheer amount of euphoria the calamity ost brings me and not to mention showing me to the absolute maestro that is dm dokuro. this motif in particular speaks miles to me, something about it has stuck with me for years.

...and yes, the draedonese actually does mean something. translate it if you want :)

If you really think about it, draedon is the only one who’s been rooting for us to get stronger ever since we appeared, meaning that he has been the only person who has truly supported us since the beginning.

[Joandersonso]

Draedon's "quest" is so good, such a natural and rewarding progression. I just wish the chargeable weapons were better

[xbosswon]

This feels like watching the terrarian from Draedon's perspective. Seeing them grow at such a rapid pace. I'd be pretty impressed if someone recreated a invention of mine too.

[tundra]

the spawn noise at the end actually gave me goosebumps

[Keeganator]

I want it to be canon that when Draedon left Yharim he said:

“If you truly want me to return you must visit all my labs, and take materials from around the world to create a machine to contact me. I want to know if you truly are in need of me and my knowledge.”

[EnderAI]

this is probably one of the sickest thing ive ever seen. this is very well made. the only thing i can say to this is that it is gorgeous

[kvazar_void]

Why is it always the small channels that create such a masterpiece

[capnhotdog]

bro did an entire playthrough just to make this video

mad respect 🙏

[pokef]

Its simple yet beautiful, its short yet meaningful, i just love it bro, its so sick showing the progression of a player getting one step closer and closer till one of the final boss this way.

[ISAAC_]

Draedon is the kindest robot I've ever met in the entire tmodloader universe☺️☺️☺️

[Abqsmal]

Absolute beauty. The music adds so much while the player progresses. From wooden armor all the way to auric, slaying boss after boss, showing the progression you go through. Then you reach the cosmic engineer.

The first time i beat Draedon, i was really confused why the heck did i feel really weird that the way he talk to us was very not antagonist like

And then later i beat him again in infernum mod then this song plays after his defeat, making me question even more if this guy actually bad or not

Don't get me wrong, in the lore he is indeed bad with all of his experiment and stuff but remember that the only thing matter to him is his fascination in creation

That's why until now Draedon is the top 1 favorite character in calamity mod for me

[altyresloweffortdump]

I love how the Terrarian looks like a beautiful lady at first, then she puts on the wood armor and just

Slowly starts looking more and more like a ridiculously powerful warrior

[maximka]

I have watched this video many times and all I can say about it - it's great.

I love how this video shows all the player's progress in building the Codebreaker.
I love the music that fits this video perfectly.
I love the visual of this video: shaders, final summoning, cipher that translates the background text (yes, i actually tried to translate this)
I just love it.

That's really one of the best Calamity mod video I've seen.
And yes! The Calamity ost is really very cool. That gives me a new breath, when I am listening it.

[maxtonhughes]

Man! For such a simple concept, that hits different....



My only feeling is an odd sense of nostalgia, even though I'm still playing, it's what I feel after I finish a playthrough😢😢😐🙂

[soloman]

A short but incredibly cinematic experience that is also well-executed. Truly it is an artist's particular skill to capture and envision what all of us only felt.

[kingcyrusrodan]

This is so fucking cool, Draedon is easily one of my favorite villains of all time

[tomfoolery]

This introduced me to Terraria, I said "These graphics are gorgeous" AND my fate was sealed as I slowly let 280 hours of my life away.

[voidwalker]

This felt like watching a painting come to life. I don't how else to describe it, but this was like so great to watch. And I believe this video is further proof that the stories Terraria can offer anyone are endless
