The first time I saw this scene it creeped me out pretty good...I sat there doing the blank stare. This is just an awesome, awesome game. I wish there were a sequel, but it's been so many years I doubt that will EVER happen.
For those of you who don't know about this rumor, here it is: Retro Studios (Metroid Prime trilogy, Donkey Kong Country Returns) may be working on Eternal Darkness 2 for the next Nintendo console (it's HD, in case you haven't heard).
And thats why: I do every thing my self, and complain about it to others. What I usually say when people want me to do stuff is: "Lazy bums can't do anything yourself!" or "Why do I have to do everything?" Well, work has its own rewards. :3
"Hello there, I am Maximillion Roivas, I murdered most of my servants because they are horrible monsters wearing human skins. Please accomany me into this darkened basement, where there is a horrible cyclopean city. It is totally real and not a figment of my deranged imagination, and I totally won't stab you in the dark."
"Of course, of course. My name in Dr. Augustus, I totally believe you and am not about to have you locked up in the insane asylum."
@Tangomoose I'm not sure this IS Michael Bell. According to the IMDB, it is actually William Hootkins, but listening to his voice at the beginning of this video, its sounds just like Michael Bell. If it isn't Michael Bell, I am amazed someone was able to emulate his voice so well. (Upon playing the game for the first time I was sure it was Michael Bell, but the credits are either wrong or this guys sounds exactly like him).
@intelligentignorance yeah wikipedia says William Hootkins but they sound way too similar.... if this is William Hootkins then I have definately found myself a new favourite voice actor!
@MajorShepard i dont know if you have playd the game, but if you have, u probobley remember the first chapter of that book you find. it is when you controll thatt "i call him a spartan warrior" in the dessert..
in the end of that chapter, you must choose a red, green or blue glyph.. or artifact.
This is one of my top favorite games. Ever. And this is one of the most intense scenes in the game. 2:28 that look when he turns his head is pure madness.
What's truly sad about this is that Max wasn't totally nuts here. Just despondant that he knew how bad things were going to get and couldn't do anything about them.
All homeboy needs to do is get a rat to chew his straight Jacket sleeves so his
arms would be free, walk over to the door and put his hands through the feeding slot, lift the bar up from the door and he's home free to save the world.
This for me was my favorite scene in the whole game, it holds a disturbing image in ones mind. All the other characters were killed off, some via the ancients, some over time, but Max lost everything.
To have everything from your possesions to your respected status stripped from you and then being thrown into a dank cell where even your very mind is taken from you, the guilt of your deeds knawing at you as the rats scamper over your toes, plauged by the knowledge of the approaching Darkness...
@khalidthekiller That distinction goes to Pious, my friend. He doesn't have a sanity meter at all when he battles Mantorok's horrors in the first chapter. Seeing a skeleton get up and start attacking him doesn't faze him at all.
Legally, they can't. After this was released, Silicon Kights (creators) was bought by Microsoft. It's kind of like why Geno or Earthworm Jim weren't in Brawl, even though that would have been awesome.
Well technically they formed a partnership with Microsoft. Nintendo still owns shares in the company as well as the rights to the sanity system. Silicon Knights are still fully capable of developing a sequel for nintendo.
I remember right you find out later that he wasn't committed for telling people he actually murdered all of his servants thinking they were corpse thief (its hinted 1 off them may of been)
GREATEST VOICE ACTING IN A VIDEO GAME!!!!!!! THERE I SAID IT!!! OMG!!! Still gets me to this day. "MAY THE RATS EAT YOUR EYES!!! You feel his emotions!
this was the first game I bought for the game cube! I sold it with all my games though, damn I deserve to get stabbed for that. (not without losing my sanity first)
best acting in a video game everrrrrrrr. nintendo and silicon knights need to get to work on the follow up on the wii now. this time they can actually push the hardware more. the gamecube version wasnt even pushed much graphically.
Xel'otath (sp) all the way, her monster designs were often much more disturbing than the others (which is the point seeing as she effects sanity). Of all the ancients, she was my favorite cause she had the greatest scope for maddening fear
is this Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem because i had a different ending with a different charrecter if this was another game whats the name and are there others
Yes,it is Eternal Darkness Sanity's Requiem,and that's not the ending cutscene.If is that what you mean,also you can play this game with 3 different Alignes and more than 8 different characters over 1000 years time period
I think that once you murder your servants and come out frothing at the mouth raving like a lunatic, your explanation tends to be lower priority than locking you up.
Even if he did show them, he is still crazy, and there's not anything they could do about the ancients anyway.
Ya know the funny part about this scene was when i was so obsessed with this game, i learned to recite the scene where he freaks out in his cell. So i was asleep in class and just acted out the scene in class and just walked out... this brings back memories.
Ahh i remember playing it alone at night upstairs. The wolume was going up and down on the screen as my sanity was lowered, and i turned around only to find the t.v remote sitting on a chair.. pointing directly at the televison... oooh creepy stuff - along with the classic bleeding walls!
Man i gotta pull out this game again... i put it away before finishing, but now im older lol i think i can handle it!
This scene made me think, especially when he yells "may the rats eat your eyes!" Dont you hear someone say that at the very very start as alex with the rifle?
Yeah, that's Max's voice at the very beginning of the game. The game is intended to be played multiple times, so they put stuff like that in that you won't get until you've already played it once.
My brother played this game when I was about 9 years old and I loved it, although I thought it was really spooky. I can remember this scene very well, it's great!
I doubt it. In this game there's a sanity effect that brings up an "advertisement" for Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Redemption, which it's not since the director stated that ED would be a stand-alone game.
I remember when playing this game and I was this character. One thing that happened when he went insane was he opened a door and went inside and he was in that very asylum shouting "Let me out of here!" Then he reverted back to the normal room.
It's Jennifer Hale, and with a resume as long as hers, there's no telling where you heard her voice. Personally, I think of Naomi Hunter in Metal Gear Solid (after this, of course.)
Hmm.. I haven't played MGS 1 before I don;t know &__& so she is a voice actress and I mustv'e heared her before..has she been in any Resident evil games? cuz that's the only thing I can think of at the moment &__&
Not to my recollection, and I've played all the console releases but Survivor 2, Dead Aim and the Outbreaks. So I guess one of those might be a possibility.
I think she's done some TV and Anime as well, and if all else fails, Wikipedia and the IMDB should have her filmography. I hope that helps.
This scene alone makes the game. This was my favourite part of eternal darkness, cause it was so foreboding and chilling to hear max's final monologue. This is by far the most brilliant and chilling game I've ever played.
It does sound as Raziel, but imdb lists Michael Bell (his voice) as Peter Jacob. Btw, seems that soundtrack was made by the same guy who did Blood Omen OST:)
in the game i played, peter jacobs did the voice of max roivas... but in this video it is not the same VA, and it is clearly michael bell. Pheraps Pal and NTSC version differences? Or just Final version and production beta differences?
Max: So, whaddya think, fellas? All I need is a title. I was thinking along the lines of no beer and an invasion of body-snatching monsters makes Max something-something.
Servant: Go crazy?
Max: DON'T MIND IF I DO! *draws a pistol and sword* WEHEHEHEHE AHHAHAAHAH nehnehneh wakakaka HA HA HA HA, Scadycat! *makes a face* Bleeeeh! *looks in the mirror at this face* AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! *faints*
The story of maxwell roivas is vaguely inspired in the "The Rats In The Walls" short story by lovecraft. I find the "May The Rats Eat Your Eyes" the ultimate reference.
The motherfuckin beast was fuckin dead. But not without a fuckin toll on me... That was just one motherfucker, there was an entire fuckin city of them.
Maybe its a new Eternal Darkness? Check this out straight from the bosses mouth.
"Denis Dyack, designer of Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem and Too Human, said "absolutely yes" in July 2006 regarding the question of a possible sequel in his Too Human IGN blog. He stated that Silicon Knights intended for Eternal Darkness to be a stand-alone game, but the company has always intended to make more games set in the Eternal Darkness universe involving the Ancients."
MAAAYY THE RATS EAT YOUR EYES!!! lol i remember this game. definitey a great time. i played through all three. it would be a good bet for 360 to get this.
when he says "strange creatures" he seems to be channelling William Shatner

it's a shame more people didn't play this game. It was a great underrated game. It was one of the reasons to have a Gamecube.

Hmm.. I haven't played MGS 1 before I don;t know &__& so she is a voice actress and I mustv'e heared her before..has she been in any Resident evil games? cuz that's the only thing I can think of at the moment &__&
Jill4ChrisRedfeild 3 years ago
Not to my recollection, and I've played all the console releases but Survivor 2, Dead Aim and the Outbreaks. So I guess one of those might be a possibility.
I think she's done some TV and Anime as well, and if all else fails, Wikipedia and the IMDB should have her filmography. I hope that helps.

was this several different scenes or is the game fucking with your head?
a1chrisryan1a 3 years ago
It's three scenes, each from a different alignment. The only thing different is the guardian, IIRC.

This scene alone makes the game. This was my favourite part of eternal darkness, cause it was so foreboding and chilling to hear max's final monologue. This is by far the most brilliant and chilling game I've ever played.

It does sound as Raziel, but imdb lists Michael Bell (his voice) as Peter Jacob. Btw, seems that soundtrack was made by the same guy who did Blood Omen OST:)

in the game i played, peter jacobs did the voice of max roivas... but in this video it is not the same VA, and it is clearly michael bell. Pheraps Pal and NTSC version differences? Or just Final version and production beta differences?

Max: So, whaddya think, fellas? All I need is a title. I was thinking along the lines of no beer and an invasion of body-snatching monsters makes Max something-something.
Servant: Go crazy?
Max: DON'T MIND IF I DO! *draws a pistol and sword* WEHEHEHEHE AHHAHAAHAH nehnehneh wakakaka HA HA HA HA, Scadycat! *makes a face* Bleeeeh! *looks in the mirror at this face* AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! *faints*

The story of maxwell roivas is vaguely inspired in the "The Rats In The Walls" short story by lovecraft. I find the "May The Rats Eat Your Eyes" the ultimate reference.

You thought so too, eh? I just finished reading that one... *shudders violently* Holy ****, Lovecraft truly is a master...

I always thought if Samuel L. Jackson did the voice acting for Max, it would go something like this
Max: May the motherfucking rats eat your motherfucking eyes, I am a motherfucking lost cause. Fuck.

just wanted to say Silicon Knights did anounce a new game in development that will be a psychological thriller...perhaps a sequel is in the works?

Maybe its a new Eternal Darkness? Check this out straight from the bosses mouth.
"Denis Dyack, designer of Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem and Too Human, said "absolutely yes" in July 2006 regarding the question of a possible sequel in his Too Human IGN blog. He stated that Silicon Knights intended for Eternal Darkness to be a stand-alone game, but the company has always intended to make more games set in the Eternal Darkness universe involving the Ancients."
I cant wait!!!
