I mean... Ballas did say in the Sacrifice Quest that everything they touched seemed to turn against them: Citizens, Sentients, Infested, Tenno. Everyone just really hates the Orokin.
"Oh no, the stronger thing also turned against us....we should build something stronger than the stronger thing to defeat it." (pattern recognition isn't one of their strong suits.)
Dear Orokin, Maybe instead of building more powerful lifeforms that are going to ignite an infinitely long space war, you could just try not being a giant bag of dicks. Sincerely, Every single soul suffering in the origin system
For me personally, discovering that warframes are infested people was a really cool moment. I wasn't expecting such horror-ish story from this game at all. We see the process of creating one of the warframes in Umbra's quest, but it's a small part of the whole process, I believe. If I remember right, Orokin was also altering minds of warframes, leaving no memories of the host body, messing with their emotions and such. But yet they remained uncontrollable, which wasn't fixed untill Tenno took the stage. And, of course, these procedures were completed no matter if a person agreed or if they did not. Crafting warframes feels messed up too. If we only make copies, why than Umbra got all of his memories, all of his pain, all of his anger still intact? Does it happen for every frame we craft? Do we have to deal with pain of every different warframe that we own?
So from a little digging, it seems that Umbra had something called an Umbral Transference Bolt in him which is part of the reason why he was able to retain his memories (that and sheer angry). And yup! The tenno at least had to share/quiet the emotions and memories of at least the original Warframes. Since the tenno had already gone through such traumatic stuff from their time on the Zariman, they could relate to the Warframes pain and work with them.
@@corgthemighty, quite the opposite. Every frame have a transference bolt. That temper their identity and make them "bio-drones". But the first generation of warframes didn't had transference and were able to retain their memories, their inner self, like Sorren (Stalker), Jade, Gara and many others. Only the copies we made have transference systems. Umbra it's a special case . Btw, without transference kit, every single one of them will behave exactly like Umbra. What we do are indeed copies, but perfect copies nonetheless. Next time, when you craft a new frame look closely to what materials you use. It's said, humans are stardust (the most rare and complex elements from the heart of a dying star are in a human body), and think at perfect bioengineering of the Orokin, the seamless cloning tech (Grineer) and you'll have the answer about our freshly crafted bio drones, if are still individuals or not.
interesting detail that makes the orokin seem SLIGHTLY less incompetent is that the sentient can fairly easily take control of machines. Hence they needed something that wasn't machines to fight the sentient. Thus weaponizing the biological infested seemed like a somewhat logical conclusion. This is also what lead ballas to the realisation of combining the idea of machines (they created the sentients and that didn't go well) and biology (the infestation which also didn't go well) by creating the warframes, which as mentioned initially were just supposed to remain loyal and sane, which they didn't. Thank god we have random void kids mumbling about tapping against walls.
3:37 yes its literally both some of the hive minds are greater and have control of half a planet, the two worms come to mind, it’s basically a hierarchy of hive minds, wich means yes there ARE Nidus divisions for every player in game and for the infestation, it’s honestly a great way to introduce infested litches wile not have to spend more of their time developing unique models of the infested, just make us fight different versions of Nidus.
I actually forgot that the infested don't have their own equivalent of liches, but I am excited to see what DE does because they'll probably introduce them eventually.
@mysteriousstranger5873 Nah they win by a mile with that, but I'd still be scared shitless of something that's capable of giving a halo ring self-awareness🫥
I too have a cute lil parasitic hivemind in my own verse that is just flat out op (and probably beats the infested any day, but loses to later stages of the Flood because of... star-roads). They're called the Fog and they're a supernatural Infestation that corrupts a bunch of different kinds of matter (except aluminum alloys) with this aptly named fog that they have. They're also about as smart as the Flood, but they have a weakness to supernatural entities due to their own supernatural nature. God basically uses them as Noah's Flood for the rest of the galaxy until they get wiped out by another faction that I made (and really like).
@corgthemighty Like another Orokin that got away from the Sentients and used kuva to transfer their mind to a Corpo body or even they simply removing their body modifications and hiding among the Corpo. I just feel like he knows too much about the warframes and sentients that he has to have some connection to the Orokin. Or I'm just overthinking this 😅
@@calebhounsell8132 No, that's such a cool theory. Overthinking is half the fun! That would be wild to find out that he's some sort of Orokin survivor though, he'd definitely fit the part. That just makes me wonder what would have happened if the Grineer Queens had done Continuinty into Corpus bodies instead of Grineer ones, like would they be slightly more sane today.
2:20 the infested bomb achieved its purpose, to shield the necralisk, isolation vaults, Albrechts’s labs and all void related intel, stopping the sentients from learning ways to adapt to their only true weakness
I call the massive lips in my Orbiter "Wallnut" Also the Helminth in the Operator (you the player's ship) can feed it so it can prodiuce bio matter which you can use to swap out and inject other powers into other warframes which requires you to feed Wallnut a frame you don't want to use anymore (like Non-Prime versions of Warframes) to get said powers.
Coming back to this vid 7 months later is fun. And now there’s updates quest dialogue from the lotus stating that the infestation predates any orokin records. Which I believe was added during the lotus eaters update. Makes sense considering 1999 is called a “plague year”
That's cool! That could also mean a Dark Sector connection could still be in the cards since the infestation could have started from that (I just really wanna see my boy Hayden in the game lol)
Yeah and apperently according to the ARG Techrot (the ancestor of the Infestation) was created by the local version of Digital Extremes by accident when they were working on War Sector
Alad v has so much lore not covered in the game anymore which ties into the events of everything basically 😭 he's basically the modern day ballas i think the only thing he didnt have his hands in is the old war
Honestly, if they revealed he somehow had a part in the old war, I wouldn't be surprised at this point because he has his hands in a lot of stuff (and all of it ends up problematic)
oh man, the infestation... caused sommany problems and to think that it was almost extinct in the solar system until a certain grineer scientist unleashed it by accident
Small correction (at least as far as I know): The Orokin didn't give the Infestation that name when they first created it, that came later. The name they originally had for it was the "Technocyte Virus", which just sounds so much friendlier.
3:07 Btw to add on to that, not every warframe is necessarily a orokin citizen, dagaths lore indicates shes from duviri and with the 1999 update, excalibur and mag originated on earth
Just to clarify: Dagath is not from Duviri, she was a Dax gravely wounded in an "accident" that her lovers set up in order to try and kill her beloved horse. Arthur and Aoi are simply people from the time of 1999 who were infected with a modified Helminth strain given by Albrecht to make a sort of pseudo-Excal and Mag respectively. They are not the original Excalibur and Mag.
You know this reddit screenshot of the guy saying "I love how every story has its version of, and then this was this guy...", it stays true till this day
Great video that is easily digestible (like the helminth with my nano spores) as always. Will you make a video explaining the origins of the corpus at some point? I’ve heard we’re getting some more Nef Anyo lore soon aswell.
Yup! I have a kind of order I want to cover things in just so I don't end up talking about things without prior context. But definitely will talk about them because they are so cooooool!!!
I have one thing on my mind something whit me always is the emissary strain what caused it to mutate what happened to arlo is the base infestation connected weres arlo and what is he doing why do human maintain that normal human like shape and how the hell its more intelligent
Well, originally infestation wasn't called like that. It was called "Technocite", nanoorganisms that restructured organic and unorganic matter into biomechanic amalgamations. UPD. Ah, you mentioned technocyte at the end of video. It is not strain though, all infestation is technocyte. And in most locations it will look like Orokin Derelicts. Look at Eris for exampke.
Technically all warframes now are just suits. Only Excalibur Umbra isn't a suit and he is the only warframe that we know of that was created from that hybrid infestation creating thing
@@corgthemightyThat sounds like an interesting concept for a video: if the Tenno faced trials for war crimes, who in the Origin System can preside as judge? Or another: what would be the main war crime of each Warframe?
Did a little extra digging for this and realized my explanation is kind of half right. When we build Warframes, we seem to be making a copy of the original Warframe that was made way back when. So we're not making a brand new human sacrifice, but we are kind of 3-D printing a model of a deformed infestation corpse. Does that make sense?
wait, I thought the "Son" of the Entrati family was the reason infestation broke out of the lab? because in the cutscenes for reaching certain ranks in standings, it was revealed that the "Son" let the infested go in purpose, so that "Mother" would pay more attention to him. Did I misunderstand or am I missing something? This game's lore is wild so I need some help 😅
You're totally good. From my understanding, when Deimos got bio-bomb, the Entrati family initially hid in their bunker essentially. They were relatively safe, but then yes the Son did eventually let things in. So the planet was already screwed anyways, the Son just made it worse for the family.
is there any explanation why when we craft the warframes we need 4 parts (neuro,systems,chassis,bp itself) siince in lore they are infected humanoids? were the orokin just able to make premade humanoid helmith body parts? or is it just purely video game thing ? loved the quick explanation of their lore either way, very awesome
From what I understand, the original iterations of each Warframe were made from people (or at least most of them). The blueprints we gather allow us to make copies of those frames. So we're not sacrificing an entire new person to make them, but we are basically 3D printing a horribly mutate corpse. Does that answer your question friend? (also thank you for the kind words!!)
Some were Orokin citizens, though there are...others as well. Ranging from an amalgamation of random body parts resewn together after their Warframes were deemed "failures." A cyborg can apparently become infested as well, implying the Helminth is capable of similar feets to the Mutalist strain. There's Quorvex, supposedly there was no body with the frame built around something refered to as the "Crucible Core" by the Orokins most esteemed. How? I have no idea, and I fear the answer. Then there is Wisp, who supposedly was a well-endowed subject in the same manner as Dagath; but, the origin of her Prime implies that Wisp is not of our universe or timeline thanks to Eternalism.
This makes me super excited because I'm planning on doing a larger video covering all of the Warframes and I keep getting more and more interesting tidbits!
Thought you meant my Warframes for a sec lmao. I've had them for a while, but you should be able to search up colored steampunk sunglasses on amazon and get some good options. Hope this helps!
Not sure if the Orokin are just that stupid or it's just that their inflated egos are so big they can't give a rat's ass about any other life form aside from their own. The fact that it doesn't matter if you volunteered or not just kinda proves they're egotistic sociopaths. Can't even blame the Sentients when they tried to bite the hand that made them. I half-expected the video to have a segment about the Entrati family in Deimos though. They're the Orokin that got infected. And I honestly wonder if it's why they're more likeable than the average Orokin. Maybe the infestation isn't so bad after all.
Yup! I'll be covering the Entrati family in a future vid (wanted to set them up with the bio-bomb stuff though). I would also say that maybe the infestation was a factor, but it could've also just been the years of seeing what the Orokin did to the empire. Also, from what I recall I think it was Mother and the Son that weren't always the nicest anyways (they got better over time though)
Love this video but there is a thing that is wrong with it, that being the origin of the technocyte because in the newest lore it is suggested that instead of being created by the orokin it actually already existed (my source is the entrati fragments in the newest update)
You bring up a good point cause I know it comes up in the 1999 stuff, I just haven't gotten a chance to dive too deep into it yet. (Also, appreciate that you still liked the video!)
@corgthemighty np! Also, another fun fact: the grey strain has the ability to make gigantic creatures and were, in fact, created by our favorite orokin (that is not Ballas) eho we call Albert Entrati in an attempt to keep the murmur at an ears length, the first experiments being those giant statues we see in his labs
Great question! So every Warframe built in the modern day is a clone of one of the originals. So you're not sacrificing a new person to make one, but you are kinda sorta 3D printing a copy of a mutated orokin citizen corpse.
*SPOILER ALERT* so I search and found your video after the Jade shadows update. I dont know if its right, but Jade used to be human and transform into Warframe, and Sorren (aka Stalker) used to be human too, but somehow he still transform into so-called Warframe form but he still have old memory, just like Umbra, but Tenno can't interact with Stalker like Umbra, so any idea why this happen?
I thought our operators were contaminated with Void energies during the (SPOILERS) Zariman jump and only a handful of us survived the jump. For those that didn't make it on the zariman from the start were probably being killed off by the void angels. And with this void wielding powers unique and second to none gave us a frame because our void powers were out of control for us to control our void powers and this unique power that let's us control our frames is called transference and that's why we keep our buts sat down on our chair permanently at the end events of the second dream because the chair is the only thing keeping us alive and letting us control our frames from our ship But our frames can still die even with the operator controlling the current frame he's/she's using. I don't know how our frames die but it's just part of the game or lore somewhat
...I believe that I am saying this, but I am thankful that this is not a viral video. Because while the surprise is already years old, openly speaking of the game lore with most of it it's story quests in one big summary only makes interested players who wants to play for the story is disenchanting them for that experience and are also making most of them bound to just pack up and leave. In other videos, it's fine. Because they'll be adding a spoiler warning. At the title. Or in the video. While I understand this 'Movie Years ago, we can spoil now' mentality, those are movies. This is a game that requires you to invest 100 hours to get a small sip of another cinematic cutscene. I know that this sounds small but I asked people that plays new games like Helldivers usually say 100 hours is already a huge investment. So please if you could, all O would ask for is to add a spoiler at the title. People who want to spoil themselves could easily find the video. I know that there are already a ton of videos speaking and spoiling about this but let's not add more oil to the fire. Meh, what the hell am I saying, it's already there.
From your last message, it looks like you already found the spoiler warning I included near the beginning, but just wanted to clarify that I agree with what you're saying. I definitely understand the want to keep the magic in tact for new players, and so I appreciate you wanting a spoiler warning in these types of videos.
Don't tell anyone, but I think I might have accidentally stolen this vest. I used to be a theater kid and I think it was a costume piece I brought home one day by accident and never brought back. The glasses I got from amazon (just search steampunk colored sunglasses and you'll find something similar), the collared shirt I've had so long I forgot though lol sorry
The nsme would be Technocyte, thats the name of the infestation as a Virus. Ah ok you got it. Theres also a possibility that other hives are like an outpost still connected to the main Hivemind, which we still dont know where its located, each strain with the exception of Helminth are connected to the main hivemind in some way as Alad was trying his hardest to resist it, same with the Entrati they heard the hivemind telling them to let the heart stop.
Yup! I decided to explain the strains at the end but I can see how I might've wanted to bring it up earlier. Also yeah! I was talking over some ideas with another commenter and we talked about what if the main Hive Mind is an infested planet (like Deimos but bigger and completely alive), that you have to blow up and then do missions on the exploded chunks of the planet.

what if the infestation in warhammer 40k is coming from the Teno universe
Technically all warframes now are just suits. Only Excalibur Umbra isn't a suit and he is the only warframe that we know of that was created from that hybrid infestation creating thing
These warframe lore videos are very good
Nice new breath for summarizes lore videos
Nice content 👍
🧟♂️🧟♂️
And there's definitely more to come! Glad you're enjoying them!
So would my Warframe using the Cedo shotgun just be payback for all those Flood missions from Halo?
Absolutely go for it! 💯
@@corgthemightyLike I haven't been doing it since I built Kullervo... I'm all about the war crimes.
@@JaxMerrick God if Warframe had a Hague it would not last long lol (also, sorry, I accidentally disliked your comment for a sec lmao)
@@corgthemightyThat sounds like an interesting concept for a video: if the Tenno faced trials for war crimes, who in the Origin System can preside as judge?
Or another: what would be the main war crime of each Warframe?
So when we build warframes from blueprint.. we’re printing people?
Did a little extra digging for this and realized my explanation is kind of half right. When we build Warframes, we seem to be making a copy of the original Warframe that was made way back when. So we're not making a brand new human sacrifice, but we are kind of 3-D printing a model of a deformed infestation corpse. Does that make sense?
@@corgthemighty So, our foundry is an FDM 3-D printer, but the filament is Helminth Strain?
@@JaxMerrick Essentially yeah! 😂 Imagine if it would mess up sometimes though and you just get Warframe wires everywhere.
@@corgthemighty I'm picturing a flesh cake with too much baking soda...
@@JaxMerrickHorrifying, they should put it in an update lol
Tecnocyte virus is the name.
Yup! Covered later in the vid
wait, I thought the "Son" of the Entrati family was the reason infestation broke out of the lab? because in the cutscenes for reaching certain ranks in standings, it was revealed that the "Son" let the infested go in purpose, so that "Mother" would pay more attention to him. Did I misunderstand or am I missing something? This game's lore is wild so I need some help 😅
You're totally good. From my understanding, when Deimos got bio-bomb, the Entrati family initially hid in their bunker essentially. They were relatively safe, but then yes the Son did eventually let things in. So the planet was already screwed anyways, the Son just made it worse for the family.
is there any explanation why when we craft the warframes we need 4 parts (neuro,systems,chassis,bp itself) siince in lore they are infected humanoids?
were the orokin just able to make premade humanoid helmith body parts?
or is it just purely video game thing ?
loved the quick explanation of their lore either way, very awesome
From what I understand, the original iterations of each Warframe were made from people (or at least most of them). The blueprints we gather allow us to make copies of those frames. So we're not sacrificing an entire new person to make them, but we are basically 3D printing a horribly mutate corpse. Does that answer your question friend? (also thank you for the kind words!!)
@@corgthemighty oh yes it does, thank you for your time !
Some were Orokin citizens, though there are...others as well.
Ranging from an amalgamation of random body parts resewn together after their Warframes were deemed "failures."
A cyborg can apparently become infested as well, implying the Helminth is capable of similar feets to the Mutalist strain.
There's Quorvex, supposedly there was no body with the frame built around something refered to as the "Crucible Core" by the Orokins most esteemed. How? I have no idea, and I fear the answer.
Then there is Wisp, who supposedly was a well-endowed subject in the same manner as Dagath; but, the origin of her Prime implies that Wisp is not of our universe or timeline thanks to Eternalism.
This makes me super excited because I'm planning on doing a larger video covering all of the Warframes and I keep getting more and more interesting tidbits!
Excuse my sir!!! I love you frames. Where can I find those glasses frames online?
Thought you meant my Warframes for a sec lmao. I've had them for a while, but you should be able to search up colored steampunk sunglasses on amazon and get some good options. Hope this helps!
@@corgthemighty thank you vm
Not sure if the Orokin are just that stupid or it's just that their inflated egos are so big they can't give a rat's ass about any other life form aside from their own. The fact that it doesn't matter if you volunteered or not just kinda proves they're egotistic sociopaths. Can't even blame the Sentients when they tried to bite the hand that made them.
I half-expected the video to have a segment about the Entrati family in Deimos though. They're the Orokin that got infected. And I honestly wonder if it's why they're more likeable than the average Orokin. Maybe the infestation isn't so bad after all.
Yup! I'll be covering the Entrati family in a future vid (wanted to set them up with the bio-bomb stuff though). I would also say that maybe the infestation was a factor, but it could've also just been the years of seeing what the Orokin did to the empire. Also, from what I recall I think it was Mother and the Son that weren't always the nicest anyways (they got better over time though)
Love this video but there is a thing that is wrong with it, that being the origin of the technocyte because in the newest lore it is suggested that instead of being created by the orokin it actually already existed (my source is the entrati fragments in the newest update)
You bring up a good point cause I know it comes up in the 1999 stuff, I just haven't gotten a chance to dive too deep into it yet. (Also, appreciate that you still liked the video!)
@corgthemighty np! Also, another fun fact: the grey strain has the ability to make gigantic creatures and were, in fact, created by our favorite orokin (that is not Ballas) eho we call Albert Entrati in an attempt to keep the murmur at an ears length, the first experiments being those giant statues we see in his labs
Why don't I ever need a Orokin citizen to build my frames? Is it a bug?
Great question! So every Warframe built in the modern day is a clone of one of the originals. So you're not sacrificing a new person to make one, but you are kinda sorta 3D printing a copy of a mutated orokin citizen corpse.
@@corgthemighty Oh, ok now I get it. Thanks
My guy kinda looks like human loid 😀
*SPOILER ALERT*
so I search and found your video after the Jade shadows update. I dont know if its right, but Jade used to be human and transform into Warframe, and Sorren (aka Stalker) used to be human too, but somehow he still transform into so-called Warframe form but he still have old memory, just like Umbra, but Tenno can't interact with Stalker like Umbra, so any idea why this happen?
I thought our operators were contaminated with Void energies during the (SPOILERS)
Zariman jump and only a handful of us survived the jump. For those that didn't make it on the zariman from the start were probably being killed off by the void angels. And with this void wielding powers unique and second to none gave us a frame because our void powers were out of control for us to control our void powers and this unique power that let's us control our frames is called transference and that's why we keep our buts sat down on our chair permanently at the end events of the second dream because the chair is the only thing keeping us alive and letting us control our frames from our ship But our frames can still die even with the operator controlling the current frame he's/she's using. I don't know how our frames die but it's just part of the game or lore somewhat
...I believe that I am saying this, but I am thankful that this is not a viral video. Because while the surprise is already years old, openly speaking of the game lore with most of it it's story quests in one big summary only makes interested players who wants to play for the story is disenchanting them for that experience and are also making most of them bound to just pack up and leave.
In other videos, it's fine. Because they'll be adding a spoiler warning. At the title. Or in the video.
While I understand this 'Movie Years ago, we can spoil now' mentality, those are movies. This is a game that requires you to invest 100 hours to get a small sip of another cinematic cutscene.
I know that this sounds small but I asked people that plays new games like Helldivers usually say 100 hours is already a huge investment.
So please if you could, all O would ask for is to add a spoiler at the title.
People who want to spoil themselves could easily find the video. I know that there are already a ton of videos speaking and spoiling about this but let's not add more oil to the fire.
Meh, what the hell am I saying, it's already there.
From your last message, it looks like you already found the spoiler warning I included near the beginning, but just wanted to clarify that I agree with what you're saying. I definitely understand the want to keep the magic in tact for new players, and so I appreciate you wanting a spoiler warning in these types of videos.
One question where do you buy your clothes 😅I like the arrangement
Don't tell anyone, but I think I might have accidentally stolen this vest. I used to be a theater kid and I think it was a costume piece I brought home one day by accident and never brought back. The glasses I got from amazon (just search steampunk colored sunglasses and you'll find something similar), the collared shirt I've had so long I forgot though lol sorry
am I the only one who didn't get the copyright joke? 😭
Lol, the joke is that the Infestation are a lot like the Flood from Halo.
Stupendous drip
Gotta be looking good as a Loremaster-in-training
The nsme would be Technocyte, thats the name of the infestation as a Virus.
Ah ok you got it.
Theres also a possibility that other hives are like an outpost still connected to the main Hivemind, which we still dont know where its located, each strain with the exception of Helminth are connected to the main hivemind in some way as Alad was trying his hardest to resist it, same with the Entrati they heard the hivemind telling them to let the heart stop.
Yup! I decided to explain the strains at the end but I can see how I might've wanted to bring it up earlier.
Also yeah! I was talking over some ideas with another commenter and we talked about what if the main Hive Mind is an infested planet (like Deimos but bigger and completely alive), that you have to blow up and then do missions on the exploded chunks of the planet.
I named mines Audrey 2
Its funny i actually named my helminth audrey ||.
YES!! Am I addressing a fellow theater kid?
@@corgthemighty See, I avoided it, thinking it would be a too gauche. But then again, I named mine Hierophant Nox.
Wrong, I crafted all my frames
