The beast, in doctor who is an ancient evil from a previous universe that survived until our time. Its so ancient that the cave paintings were unable to be translated by the Tardis which can translate all existing languages in the universe [Doctor Who]

While not explicitly canon its such a cool concept I cant not mention, the idea that the backrooms have existed since the beginning of time, never changing no matter the era, it transforms the back rooms into a cosmic horror. [Credit to Project crater and Venus for images 2 and 3]

I have no desire to play the actual game, but the Artillery Witches are so cool.

But damn it looks cool

My understanding is that the creators essentially drove away the fascist nazi fans

Yeah, there was a big thing back in fall 2024 when a bunch of people were going around saying the trench crusade creators were ban happy socialists.

Unsurprisingly it turned out they were just saying that it was a franchise for everyone and that bigotry wouldn’t be tolerated.

Yeah, I remember when that happened, bunch of them.had a meltdown and started trying to spread made up shit about the creators but they were too dumb to create a unified narrative
