Now the next logical step is to contact everyone that worked on Crysis 2's art team, find out who is responsible for the design.
If it helps, there’s a little note for Crysis 3 - Felix Leyendecker is responsible for modeling and designing the Alpha Ceph as stated in his works, but what’s worth noting is that the design was derived from the concept of Dennis Chan. Unfortunately for the latter, he doesn’t seem to indicate Crysis anywhere in his portfolio
Oboe needs to contact Digital Foundry. John and Alex have good ties to Crytek.
Plus, I think they are also both based in Germany - though I have no idea if Crytek even still is...
Anyways, in my headcannon they are huge Oboe fans, have way too much free time at their disposal, and just need to cross the street to the Crytek-offices and ask the guy at the reception "If bionicle, though?"
@@chrisbent5734 Crytek's only remaining office and HQ is located in Ankara, Turkey.
"Out of options and deperate for answers, I booked a ticket to Japa - Germany."
@@supermaster2012Erm, No?
I think this guy might have a passing interest in bionicles
fleeting at best
It seems so
I dont think so. Doesn’t seem like it to me
Nah, I think it's more of a Robo Riders interest.

Other UA-camrs: A long winded 3 hour video essay to make a simple point
Oboe: Less than 8 minutes to blow the lid off a massive conspiracy
He could have just posted a photo and not do a video.
Honestly you didn't need to shit on other content creators Name me a 3 hour essay video that was made just to prove one point where the journey didn't matter.
@@thesidneychan its obvious sarcasm.... Not throwing shade at anyone...
@@wolfkult4320nah just throw shades at them, its even worse when people use the said 3-hours video essay in a argument trying to prove their points.
@@thesidneychanyou must be new here welcome to Oboeshoesgames, where Oboe and his subscribers take nothing too seriously maybe you should try that.
The efficiency
finally the crysis x bionicle crossover the fans have been desperately waiting for
keyword desperately 😭
Cryonicle?
Modern gaming would be way better if every game had a reference to Bionicles.
When Tahu comes to fortnite I shall ascend to the red star
skyrim mods go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
@@creed8712duuuuuuuuuude! Bionicle X Fortnite! I'd go bankrupt and won't care, I'm buying all of it for myself and few others
@@creed8712 Now I want a Bionicle battle royale where you start as a maskless Matoran and you collect masks and Toa weapons
Hell certain modern lego sets have bonkle references so they are automatically better too
You know, the way that Crysis 1 takes place on a tropical island is also very mata nui esq
And then it moves on to Metru Nui / New York. HMM.
And then it’s overgrown New York/ metru nui oooh it all makes sense
And deep underground that tropical island? A hive of ancient and destructive mechanised robots piloted by fleshy creatures.
Except that unlike Crysis 1, Bionicle was able to be play for everyone instead of needing a NASA supercomputer to run it at 480p in 24fps
Can we appreciate how cool the concept of bionicle tho. Its basically a robot universe with a backdrop of maori culture. That is the most original and fun shit I've ever heard.
Also robots made of lego.
BIONICLE also being a huge metaphor of a battle against cancer/brain tumor based on the creator Faber's experience, that blew my mind as a kid when I found out about it
@MyStellarSpace I never knew the name of its creator but now lightbulbs are lighting in my head since one of the main "creators" in the forerunners of halo was also named Faber...
Bionicles are bio-mechanical beings, not robots, but we all understand the point you make
I've always appreciated it's blend of fantasy tropes and elemental powers with more robotic, mechanical, and sci-fi elements. It reminds of like Avatar the Last Airbender but everyone is an elementally attuned cyborg.
When Lego sue Crytek they are going to call you as expert witness in bionicles anatomy.
I like when John Crysis had a 900% FoV in Crysis 2 this proves he is actually a Bionicle, normal John Crysis's can't see that far out
This is a certified ObionicleShoesGames classic
I particularly like how much of a chore it is to say.
Another Oboe original
I like that you either personally created or commissioned some 3D scenes specifically for this video
My guy hit us with a random laser to cut his Game.
I wouldnt be surprised if he actually did them himself lmao.
I can't believe you'd make a revelation like that and not translate it from Matoran, the implication is kinda insane
"Pretend this says something really crazy in the comments"
@@epsilon6516Crazy? I was crazy once
Not only was my mind blown when you showed him on screen, but this goes even deeper when you realize that its a poison rakshi, or, for a better term, a corrosion rakshi.

@@f1fan3000 Handsome Jack was a Makuta this whole time
I love your passion for Bionicle. If you somehow single-handedly bring Bionicle back to the public eye, I'm here for it.
You have no idea how big the bionicle community still is. There is nothing single-handed about bringing back bionicle. As all true fans know, our powers are nothing if we are not united
@@epsilon6516Unity, Duty, Destiny.
Bionicles are still highly sought after. LEGO released a little brick built Bionicle "gift-with-purchase" set a couple months back and it sold out instantly
Oboeshoe's ideal game
1. Bionicle is in it
2. More guns, less puzzle
3. Piano sounds 'boing' when it is shot
4. Helicopter doesn't go down
5. Turret section is replaced by Robocrab
I miss bionicles
Who doesn’t 😔
same
Bring them back please 😭
Me too
Ngl seeing that bionicle in the middle of the office filled me with so much happiness
This is the kind of investigating we need, good job Detective Oboe!
It's funny that in the game, the Rahkshi looking guy was in charge of the Makuta looking guys while in Bionicle it was Makuta who made the Rahkshi.
The Rahkshi are suits of armor animated by kraata, and the Ceph also appear to be squishy creatures controlling a a suit of armor.
I’m glad he uploaded this video on bionicle day
I didn't realize Bionicle day was a thing
I have failed Bionicle and Oboe
@@danielschiefer190inshallah brother it is okay
I am in absolute awe. I have no true attachment to Bionicle outside the flash games growing up, but when you actually found the Green Rakshi my mouth dropped. Well done.
It's highly possible an artist passed by it every day and then, unknowingly, felt inspired when drawing the head of the Alpha Ceph, unconsciously/subliminally drew a design based off of the Rakshi lying around in the office, which was subsequently approved, modeled and put in the game.
I have to admit I had legitimate doubts a few times. I thought you crossed the line to crazy land, but you reclaimed your name! The Bionicle conspiracy was in fact real!
Wow! That Motoran text at 2:21 said something really crazy! The craziest part was that I was able to read it without looking up an English-Matoran dictionary...
what have you done to me oboeshoes?
i myself am unreasonably proud of myself for being able to read that
They called him a mad man.. but he was right.
Will never get sick of oboe's love for bionicle.
This is actually insane, can't believe the premise of this insane video turned out to not even be that crazy. Good job, OboeGumshoesGames! You do us proud.
I want to note that the mechanics of switching suit modes is literally a change in the kanohi mask. Coincidence?
So you're telling me that Bionicle Day lands on the same day as my birthday?! I thought August 10th was a stupid day to have a birthday,...I feel so unworthy.
Happy belated birthday
Are you The Chosen One, foretold by Matoran of old?
Not only does the Alpha Ceph have a Rakshi head, that boss fight is literally just the first time the Toa fight Makuta
What if Bionicle is the entire reason Crysis exists as it does? The helmets and biomechanical nature of things is obviously a good start but there's other stuff too.
The story starts with the main characters, a group of warriors, crash landing on an island.
The first part is in a jungle and seems to be about a group of soldiers fighting one thing when it suddenly turns out something else entirely is going on and then the next part takes place in a city.
The main characters' powers are shown by physical changes and include strength, speed, shielding and invisibility.
The second iteration gives the main characters an upgrade to their armour which is basically just an excuse to update their look.
CRYSIS
CRYOSHELL
so if they give these Nano suits elemental powers then it will definitively be bionicle
@@zefellowbud5970Crysis is a prequel to Bionicle, it makes so much sense.
@@PhoenicopterusR it paints picture of bionicles being a world after humanity has gone extinct
@@zefellowbud5970Humans were the Great Beings all along
I should have known that there's Bionicles among us!
Now this is real investigative journalism.
What perfect timing, I was just looking for a Crysis review . . .
and ya, perfect video. 10/10 just enough Crysis
Oboe went full Pepe Silvia on us, never go full Pepe.
Crazy foreshadowing at 2:21, you've done it again Oboe
I'm certain that Crysis guy is really a Transformers Autobot foot soldier.
This applies to me in no way
Did you still find a way to make me watch it?
yes, well done Oboe
Reminds of how a recent Thor comic had an ancient mech that was straight up just Maxilos with Spinax' head. I don't even mean in the sense that the shapes were pretty similar, but each individual piece was drawn in detail.
Can you give the name, i wanna see that
@@allah_2 the mech was called a Blood Colossus
@@jorymo4964 Looking it up yeah it's pretty much just a ripoff with added detail lmao
The ending is so damn insane. You out did yourself. Congrats!
All it was missing was a link to the video and timestamps
The crysis Guy has a fusion between a kanohi miru and a hau
investigative journalism at it finest
Okay, so I'm not crazy! I knew they looked like Bionicle!
Of course its the blurriest, most unassuming lego set that Oboe picks out of countless hours of video
Hard hitting journalism
I'm glad someone is actually asking the important questions
Your pure love of bionicles is what keeps me here Oboe. Then Crysis 2? HELL YEAH
That Crysis Bionicle box goes kinda hard
Gotta rewatch this Theory-Confirming-Speedrun at least once a month. The glorious shot of that awkwardly posed Lehrak is just TRIUMPHANT!
A question I never thought I’d needed the answer to until someone asked it.
You’re truly a philosopher
6:17 wow is that a Korg MS2000 crazy
2:20 "pretend this said something really crazy in the comments."
15 years later I can still read Matoran for some reason
Was almost worried Oboe would miss Bionicle day today. Edit: HOLY MOLY, LERAHK?! MY FIRST EVER AND FAVORITE BIONICLE SET! I did not expect him to be the key to all this right at the end of the video 🤣🤣🤣
an insane theroy that doesnt end in trying to take down your local pizza place or ikea
I like how the normal ending theme changed to an upbeat theme of triumph for this video.
can we just appreciate how good of a detective oboe is?
seriously; examining all that crytek footage just because you had a clue and then actually prove your theory with finding the exact look-a-like bionicle you were mentioning..wow!
I'll take it one further - the aliens aren't inspired by the Bionicle franchise, they're a DIRECT SPINOFF from the Bionicle main continuity.
Source: It came to me in a dream
This is genuinely an accomplishment and I just want you to know I’m happy for you and proud of you
After watching the video i am genuinely shocked that i believe your hypothesis, But none the less good work detective
This is like seeing all the Transformers lying around in Studio Trigger all over again
"Exactly 61 frames later"
I don't know why but that was the funniest line.
The first time I heard him going on about bionicle in a video I thought he was joking and just making a bunch of stuff up, had zero clue that there was an entire bionicle universe
It's funny, that always seems to surprise people.
My mind is now blown
I love how you say the word “Bionicle.” It’s so sexy.
Oh my god! I always thought there was something weirdly familiar about the snipers' helmets. I would say the Alpha Seph too but I don't remember just about any single part of Crysis 3... so....
The bow was cool though!
*John Crysis for President*
Dang, now I need to play Crisis. I can't pass up a game franchise that is definitely for real official Bionicle canon.
3:30 “Hold RT to Shot the Bow.”
John Crysis hasn’t figured out Maximum Grammar yet.
Happy 810nicle day, I'm dusting off my pieces and building some stuff
Is the oboeshoesgames guy SECRETLY making a video of Mercenaries 2 World in Flames! a hit game developed by pandemic studios!?
This is amazing news Oboeshoes, your detective skills and rapid bionicle building skills and lore knowledge has come through again
this is exactly what i expected when i clicked on this video, and my fix of oboe saying "biONicle" over and over again is quenched
the forensic examination of the videos to find definitive proof was crazy, god damn
Bionicle day? Can someone fill me in?
the date 8/10
810nicle day
@@wulf2757
So basically September 8th for anyone else
Thats enough conjecture, the evidence is irrefutable
This is the most important thing I've seen all month
I love bionicle lore videos thinly disguised as a gaming video
This is amazing. I usually am not into the Bionicle stuff but man this was phenomenal
This is the hard-hitting investigation the world needs right now.
Okay, this was wonderful. Well done. Every time I almost forget about Bionicle, UA-cam pushes something to me and I'm back in the rabbit hole again.
"In the LORE" God I love this channel haha
Not the theory we deserve but the one we needed
Crysis and Bionicle, I wish they're both connected. It'll the most ambitious crossover xD
On a similar note, I noticed a similarity between Titanfall and Exo-Force. Not just the mechs, but the design of the Spectres/robot soldiers, especially their heads.
Crytek is based in Germany, Bionicle was huge here. Probably some lead art designers took some childhood inspiration.
Solid investigative journalism. 10/10
Not convincing. John Crysis is most likely the season two protagonist of Galidor, just salvaged from that property.
Every so often, I realize that Oboe needs therapy
I clicked on this video without looking at who posted it because I KNEW it was oboe as soon as I saw the word “Bionicle” in the title
this shit was actually so funny holy fuck
It's more accurate to say that the gameplay got way worse in the second game and a bit better in the 3rd.
Imo I think 3 had the best gameplay
Alright it's settled, you're a better detective to watch than any other, more than Doctor Who and Batman. Not even Crysis on Infinite Bionicle Worlds was a challange for you. I thought your Borderlands gameplay and Top Rocks in Borderlands were the best until i watched you play and review games nobody ever heard of AND find Bionicles in EVERY franchise, so many that it sent you down this rabbit hole to find out a game was maybe inspired by Bionicles... dude... youre amazing!! Prefect detective skills and reviews!
Absolute masperpiece of a video
also damn that was a really good point made in the matoran text at 2:21
I applaud the autistic attention to detail, you sir would make a wonderful detective.
There is a thin line between genius and madman, you have clearly snorted that line.
Are you calling him a cocaine addict? How rude.
@@rmj8905 Finely ground up Toa
Imagine this guy being a cop investigating a murder and the only evidence is a Bionicle in the victim's hand.
The Bionicle lettering on 2:20 says something really crazy^^
This is easily my favorite gaming channel exclusively for videos like this
Now this is quality content. Maybe one day, Bionicle will have its own Morbius-like resurgence... hopefully with a little more success.
An 8 minute long video about a crazy theory sorrounding a videogame has a very deep work of investigation and documentation than a professional journalist doing a 1 hour news special based in a rumour.
Love you're channel bro, keep it going!!!
This is how I lowkey have seen the guy from The Wolf Among Us as Obi-Wan. The front cover really sold it with how he looks and it being dark and the orange lightning made me think of the battle on Mustafar.
