They said it was his brother, but yes.i'm pretty sure its been said that Moonlord is Cthulhu's cousin

Ok the cultists are lhizhards that lost faith In Golem after you the player defeats him, so five powerful lhizhards (each one represents a celestial tower accept for the leader who represents the moonlord) went and took up an ancient cult name and began worshipping Cthulhu. Once the moonlord heard someone praising his brother and not him he sent his towers down and then himself to destroy all who lives in that earth.It just doesn't make logical sense for the developers to randomly do a 180 and decide that the boss they had been saying isn't Cthulhu for literal years is now Cthulhu. It probably just straight up isn't. In fact they said it's more like "cthulhu's brother" at one point which means that it's equally likely it could be his brother Hastur for all we know. In fact you could make a better case for it being Hastur than Cthulhu, as he is usually associated with the color yellow, and there is yellow energy emanating from the tablet, which could mean it was meant for him. It's a logical leap, but then again so is the idea that it's Cthulhu. And it's not like the Moon Lord even has the right color scheme for either, he's neither dark green nor yellow like either of the brothers.
If we knew where the cultists even got the tablet and why they waited so far into the game to use it, we would probably have a clearer answer. It could have been in possession of the Lihzarhds (an important part of the game curiously absent from the lore entirely, by the way) and then the cultists stole it from them and thought it was something else for all we know.
There is "Official" Terraria lore, but it isn't written that well, and it contradicts many things the devs have said. Like Moonlord being Cthulhu's brother.Actualy according to the lore moonlord is cuthulu's brother
In the Cthulhu Mythos, Cthulhu's associated color is dark green, while his brother's (specifically Hastur) associated color is yellow. The mysterious tablet doesnt glow dark green, now does it? This may be a logical leap, but if people can believe that moon lord is cthulhu based on a simple appearance and nothing else that's proven, than I didn't do anything that they didn't.Actualy according to the lore moonlord is cuthulu's brother
Idc man its a game not a conspiracy theory
Honestly, moon lord (according to lore) is Cthulhu regenerating from his fight with the dryads and was sealed in the moon.
The official lore says Cthulhu "retreated to the dark side of the moon" while the bestiary says Moon Lord was "freed from his lunar prison". Self induced exile =/= imprisonment.
Terraria lore is honestly... such a mess.The official lore says Cthulhu "retreated to the dark side of the moon" while the bestiary says Moon Lord was "freed from his lunar prison". Self induced exile =/= imprisonment.

GET DUNKED ON
My tinfoil hat theory is that they pumped it out in like 3 hours and only really did it to deconfirm a mechanical brain boss.Terraria lore is honestly... such a mess.
Also, that. Why did they have to include that the mechanic was working on a Mechanical Brain? 1.4 would release exactly a year from the release of the lore, and I don't see a reason to "deconfirm" a boss, unless things have gotten really out of hand.My tinfoil hat theory is that they pumped it out in like 3 hours and only really did it to deconfirm a mechanical brain boss.
