>>31477670>>31478653Apocolypse confirmed that
A: YHVH isn't hot shit anymore
B: The Great Will is separate from YHVH
C: Steven is an instrument of the Great Will, though to whether he's just a face, a central piece, or an opportunistic ride-along is unclear.
D: Satan (at least Apocolypse's Satan) is a separate entity from the Great Will, but may act on behalf of it.
E: Satan (at least Apocolypse's Satan) may or may not be behind humanity always shaking YHVH's grip, yet also the reason for the continued cycle, as it seems to be the prime instrument of both Law and Chaos
F: Massacre route ends with YHVH having totally lost any weight over a given universe ful of humans
G: Human observation was enough to strip YHVH of divinity, whether this means humanity is an instrument of the Great Will, a neighbor to the Great Will, or some other relationship between them remains to be seen.
Further, there are a couple of other lore possibilities now.
Nocturne's Kagutsuchi is now possibly not YHVH, but the Great Will. Maybe. Steven's assertion that the Demi-Fiend is a messiah suggests either that True Demon is not cannon to that timeline, or that Kagutsuchi is indeed just YHVH (What has the series come to when something can "Just" be YHVH?)
Nocturne's Lucifer, and 4's Lucifer are possibly not the same Lucifer.
Strange Journey suggests that YHVH may not actually be anything like humanities ability to believe made manifest or anything so noble, but just a being brought into existence by some lesser beings trying to make a name for themselves.
And apparently, Odin is important for SMT 5.
