Indeed@@yourstrulli9089, I actually come from Apex as well! I was the admin for Apex Lore and helped build that community from the ground up, so I'm interested to see how Embark treats lore in their game. 🙌
This is just like Dota 2, where in the lore when one of the ancients (team base) dies they reset the universe, therefore any match played with any heroes on each team is canon because each iteration of the universe the characters chooses different sides and their cosmetics reflects different paths they took in their journeys up until the final battle.
I do actually think that lore of Finals has so much potential, especially the fact that we are as a players lauching the game and we sort of entering this "virtual world".
Honestly my hot take is that the player characters should remain as blank canvas. At least for me, it allowed me to role-play each character I built, and I took pride on making them look unique as if they are a team of characters trying to make a name for themselves in that world. And in the intro segment, it at least looks like the other players are doing something similar. I struggle to role-play in something like Apex when I see the same character multiple times in the arena.
I think that's a valid and spot-on approach! I wouldn't mind if that aspect remains untouched. What I truly want is for them to give us actual characters for the Announcer, Scotty & June, the brands' CEOs, etc. There's clearly an intent to build the lore around them, but I don't want them or future characters to remain as faceless NPCs. I was actually an admin & moderator for the Apex Lore community, and the first year or two were great in terms of world building but it has always struggled in having a defined storyline and completing character arcs - plus the whole "gameplay is not lore" aspect that you mention. I think THE FINALS has everything it needs narrative-wise to satisfy everyone.
@@SPEARHEADPR yes !! exactly!! Really looking forward to the release and see what solutions they come up with, wouldn't surprise me though if the lore is light and for communities like this to put the pieces together, but definitely there should be more than what's on the beta (which makes sense, since beta is strictly to make the gameplay better)
And this reminds me of Ready Player One. I like to imagine the default skins randoms are those indentured servitude in the movie and me and my friends are the protagonists.
I personally think it’s way darker. The first game I played I got immediate hunger games vibes. I think that the obsession over “sponsors” gives a good hint about a far future ultra capitalist society.
@@phastfireAt least, Now people are still fighting against it, Cold War was a hell of a World's Castratophic Drawback, "SoCIaLiSm" Villainizing without even being able to accurately explained it (Not to confused with Tankie, those are POS who tried to defend Putin, Stalin)
One role-playing element I wish they'd include is custom team names (within reason) for Ranked Tournaments that stick with your squad as you accrue Fame. The idea being you create your contestant, then a team, and tournaments are your story of stardom in The Finals. There's only 16 team names total in the game currently. They could even use a random name generator so there's not as many Live Wires or Ultra-Rares. This would affect the VO of the commentators, but they could switch it to referring to team colors that are assigned match to match, Red vs. Blue team, etc.
Actual names are better since referring to them as colors could affect people who are colorblind, then that in itself would need custom lines as well as more if they allow custom colors.
@focusfailing2831 I hope you understand that it benefits the game at the concern of voice actors, but they haven't been replaced nor should they. It provides significant cost and time savings for developers, and there can be a balance. The Finals devs also clarified the VOs are not fully AI, it's a combo of recorded voice audio and audio generated via TTS.
I always wondered if they made the world this way so that, if there is an esport scene (which there's total potential for), they could add real-world sponsors. I think it would be kind of sick lol
I think they could actually fund the game with real world sponsorships. They got the formula for it and I was so focused on playing I didn't even notice there were any ads in the beta.
I'm glad to see that they are adding world building to the game, I always love seeing this stuff in games like this. Its always cool to add context to everything beyond just the gameplay
A ‘The Finals’ show or movie would be epic about a person wanting to become a contestant and have the fame and fortune of it all and showing the steps a long the way
That 16ws sponser, I think is referencing the 16th Weather Squadron. This is the “mission” taken directly from the air force website. “Rapidly innovate, exploit, and operate cutting-edge software applications to generate environmental and IW insights to support national interests.” This would tie in those 1958 Air Force sunglasses. I almost think there’s a version of the finals being used as military training.
Here are the few new tidbits that we got in the Open Beta. I'm hoping to see the story completely unravel when the game is released later this year. Let me know if you enjoyed watching my gameplay while I talk about lore!
I really hope the lore doesn't go with a grimdark matrix or cyberpunk 2077 approach where humanity is doomed and found solstice through the virtual world, this seems like a huge breath of fresh air for a game and lore where it doesn't have to be as optimistic as overwatch but not grimdark like cyberpunk 2077, and more of a sci fi humanity that hit a jackpot of a sport thanks to groundbreaking VR technology.
Thanks for watching! Embark has all the brand assets in their Media Kit; there you can find the logos, fonts and assets. It's available at their website, in the footer (Press & Content Creators).
That is my theory, yes. There’s something off about the way he speaks towards June, and considering his great success as a Contestant + ties with Volpe’s CEO, it wouldn’t surprise me if he has secrets.
honestly when i first played it i saw an immediate correlation to ready player one. people escaping from the real world, fighting for fame and glory, even the coins that are dropped are uncannily similar
Right?! Lowkey waiting for the gigantic inflatables in the sky to come alive and drop in the map after decrypting some code from a random lighting post we find inside a small cabin hidden in the woods of Monaco.
This has been a topic of discussion for some time and Embark has explained that while they’re not against, they’d like to remain as close to the IP and original content as possible for the time being.
Hey, I am new to content creating so I am unaware if there is any UA-cam etiquette. Can I mention/link your video on my next upcoming video? I am doing more of a "theory craft" video on sponsors and want to give people the option to view a more informative and fact based video and this is the best one imo.
Of course! Feel free to share any videos of mine, I focus on lore and maps specifically. Thanks for watching and I wish you the best of luck in this journey. Your content is good, keep at it!

Us being the player trapped the matrix goes hard, cus now we’re part of the matrix, scotty used to play the finals, so him being AI may just be a design choice..
It's not currently in the game. Those were cosmetics for OSPUZE and ISEUL-T Battle Passes from Season 0 (Closed Alpha and the first Closed Beta). We don't know when they'll be back.
@@SPEARHEADPR Gotcha, thanks! You weren't able to keep them in those betas, right? As it wasn't tagged as "permanent". I assume we'll get those skins later on.
Currently, there is no way to get them as these were Season 0 (Alpha and Betas) cosmetics. Se don’t know if they’ll come back at some point in the future.
@@SPEARHEADPR damn, thank you for letting me know. I didn't play until release, and I didn't see the gaucho skin in the open beta rewards from videos either.
No problem. Both OSPUZE and ISEUL-T battle-passes where kinda used as promotional/testing materials during those tests and most of the cosmetics were not rewards. That’s why I’m hoping they come back later on.
I think it would be very cool if somewhere down the line the arena breaks and everyone has to contest and kill each other in the real world. It would have a lot of shock value if they broke everyone's minds and decided to add gore to the game. The players would be introduced into the "meatspace" where real blood is spilled. Because the game already takes place in the future I don't see why the players can't narratively have all the physical capabilities the players have in the virtual world.
I'm certain they will introduce us to the "Meatspace" one way or another - and I hope even through in-game events. But they won't necessarily go down the morbid route. If you look at THE FINALS Brand Guidelines, that would go against their style and tone of voice, as they want to keep the game-show's approachable and playful premise. Nevertheless, I'd like to see a darker and more mature side of the story down the line.
I think there is no need to flesh out individual characters, kinda clashes with the whole nameless gameshow idea. Instead I think they can flesh out each individual team, and what they represent.
¡Soy boricua, así que un saludo caribeño! I'm about to pour another cafecito while I add Spanish subtitles to this video - all my videos covering THE FINALS have them btw. Thanks for watching!
COD is at its lowest point, honestly. I haven't touched the franchise in a minute! While I would love having THE FINALS right now, I don't mind waiting at least a month for the release. It gives Embark enough time to work on the feedback/issues gathered from the Open Beta.
@SPEARHEADPR I only played 1st season of mw2 and gave up with the sameness of it all. Now that mw3 has flopped Embark could release this the quality of the beta was fine in my experience and part of why they havnt released the finals yet has to be down to mw3 releasing and Embark thinking that would take away alot of players. After hearing the poor sales of mw3 and poor reviews they need to strike whilst the iron is hot and steel alot of cod fans possibly. Like you though I'd rather wait for The Finals to spend a bit more time in the oven so to speak but I think it would be just as successful if they released now or beginning of next week. In my opinion that is.
U dont like how the charakters are faceless and have no backstory. I like that the charakters got no story so I can imagine my own. We are not the same.
In all honesty, I was rather disappointed by how CNS was portrayed. Instead of some kind of rebellion against the dystopian nature of the gameshow world, they turned out to basically just be another sponsor, for all intents and purposes. Their motives were never revealed, and then they vanished with the end of season 2, leaving the Horizon map as the only trace of their existence.
Their story isn’t over yet, as we’ve found messages from them in Kyoto since S3. Sadly, the lore in THE FINALS is rather slow, so we don’t know when they’ll be back on the spotlight. Thanks for watching!
@@SPEARHEADPR I did not know that they were still leaving messages around, so that's good to hear. Hopefully we get to learn about their motives some more. It seems like the gameshow itself is very much trying to cover up what happened, and there doesn't seem to be much in-game discussion going on except for Scotty and June's occasional lore leak. But the hush-hush nature of the topic might explain why we've been hearing so little about them.

wait whyd you make this so dark 😂 thats true though, kinda scary this could happen in real life....

@@SPEARHEADPR I did not know that they were still leaving messages around, so that's good to hear. Hopefully we get to learn about their motives some more. It seems like the gameshow itself is very much trying to cover up what happened, and there doesn't seem to be much in-game discussion going on except for Scotty and June's occasional lore leak. But the hush-hush nature of the topic might explain why we've been hearing so little about them.
love the term "MEATSPACE"
Why do i feel like i've watched this video before?
Probably because I’ve recapped everything from the past betas as well since it’s been several months. 😅

Cafecito grabbed!
The meatspace reminds me of ready player 1
Am I the only one who likes the anarcho capitalism-feeling theme of this game?
I've seen lots of people into it. I'll go into more detail in my next lore video.
