i have a lot of thoughts on minos in relation to pasiphae and the minotaur (both greek mythological and in ultrakill) but i dont really want to make a lot of posts abt it considering. the topic is generally hard to talk about.
#like i dont wanna go around claiming that the myth went 1:1 in ultrakills lore
#because for example sisyphus was more based off a book rather than his mythology (thank god)
#so minos might be only loosely based on his mythological counter part as well
#but like. the fact that with the introduction of the minotaur enemy we KNOW the minotaur thing actually happened? jesus fuck
#like we KNOW ultrakill minos thinks that the people of lust are only punished for loving eachother....
#while his real life mythological counterpart got mad at his wife for essentially being raped by proxy and she had to defend herself saying
#why would she want that. she was cursed/forced to do that because minos didnt sacrifice that bull to poseidon
#like i KNOW why that was never really brought up in ultrakill that would be. a weird topic to bring up in a funny robot shooter
#and i dont think you could accurately handle the themes of rape through lore books you find in levels of the game
#but theres just. something about minos willfully thinking his wife did that of her own accord and him refusing to think about how lust
#carries more than people who had sex a lot in ultrakill.
#again the myth MAY be different in ultrakill. maybe he never even accused his wife of that. maybe he was more understanding
#but theres a non zero chance he did
#he could be willfully ignorant and think his wife willingly cheated on him. he thinks everyone in lust is innocent/only had consensual sex
#because the alternatives are too gross/immoral for him to think about
#it might be because i sympathize a lot with greek mythology women but finding out that the thing with pasiphae happened in ultrakill
#DID happen made me lose respect for minos.
#... also towards a lot of the fandom for joking abt it.
