POV: Nezarec getting two-phased
"MYKEL! DON'T LEAVE ME HERE, MYKEL!"
*coughs*
"MYKEL...MYKEL!"
*bangs on Pyramid*
"HELP-"
The "Do vex dream? Or are they just circuitry and programming?" line could also be a reference to Marathon Infinity, which contains interlude chapters called "Electric Sheep". These are references to the novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep", since the player character in Marathon is essentially an android.
God I wish Bungie would remake the Marathon series.
@@xvx_k1r1t0_xvxkillme7 ooooh that's exciting!! I gotta keep more up to date on that stuff. a tarkov style game with marathon elements, though? bizarre.
@@justinreich2023I always forget that was bladerunners original title. Thanks for reminding me I really need to buy it.
Ask and you shall receive I guess
I think it's important to note that in new art Bungie released of Nezarec, they noted that his many different eyes are a visual hint towards his nature of a Chimera like being who takes on physical traits of different species
Is that why he just looks like rhulk
@@d0onut, no that was noted in recent art to be because when the Disciples go through an empowering process in the beggining, the Witness has their flesh rebuilt into a Pyramid bio suit which acts as some sort of uniform
@@BrettFairchildexcept for calus?
@@itswhiterice215 Calus actually did go a physical reconstruction during his empowering, including a brain implant of Pyramid tech, but it seems as if he managed to bargain for an appearance more fitting of a Cabal emperor, while still having design language of Pyramids and Disciples
Oh god, I just realize we still have a crown of sorrows that is filled to the brim with nightmares from the Leviathan. I dread to think that Nezarec could be able to hijack it from Eris and use it for some nefarious purpose. Hell it could be a part of the festival of the lost with him creating Uber headless one nightmares and sending them out across sol to spread misery and despair.
You should do a long Video about Zavala. Rest in Peace Commander Lance! :(
My best guess is we might see nezerac again, we killed his fused light/dark body but his mind still lives and we do still have some of his body parts in the tower. Also I really wanna fight a full powered nezerac cause he even says the raid version is a fraction of his power.
We could see a rouge psion group lead by an acolyte/cult leader try to revive him with dark powers or maybe the crown of sorrow since we also have that somewhere in a later season
holy shit, Nezzy with the crown of sorrow would be awesome
Yeah I feel like Nezerac can never truly be killed and will always linger.
I really hope this happens. I want to fight True Nezerac! He's been built up since year one so it'd be a shame if he's truly gone already.
Genuinely hope this isn't the last we see of Nezzy, imagine him coming back full power after this taster for a huge throwdown!
Me and brother were saying the same thing.. Hopefully he doesn’t have his dad bod form lol
I’m only going to say this once, Bungie missed an opportunity to name the raid sidearm “Glock and balls”
That's what I'll be calling my Sidearm/Armamentarium build from now on, thanks
Wish there was info on what species he is.. it says tormentor but that can't possibly be nezarecs origin. With rhulk we learned that he came from lubrae. Maybe I'm way off but with how strong his psionic abilities are makes me think he was a psion, only because psions are known to have these powerful psionic abilities as well.
probably in page 9 and 10 that havent been released yet
The shape of his head...helmet...whatever definitely says Psion to me
Well theres been a theory going around saying that Tormentors are some kind of augmented psions so maybe not that far off. We know their tied to Nezerec for sure.
Due to the line about Psions worshipping him I think he's connected but not exactly one of them. Something older and more powerful.
Rhulk wiped out all but one of a species from the shadows trying to convert the last to become a Disciple so I kind of picture Nezerec manipulating early Psion culture from the shadows like him but instead of destroying them like a disciple making them worship him like a god.
Yo Byf I wanted to say the last video you did was well said and well put together nice job man now imma enjoy this video 😂
Couldn't agree more well handled.
@@r3mxd why? Because Byf agreed with him? Because what he said was right? We don't want our raids to be constructed around you no-friend blueberries. Get better. And ffs, proofread before you insult someone.
@@r3mxd Your exactly the type of person he was referring to.
Facts
@@kieranpicton6142 😂😂
Thanks for doing everything that you do. I play destiny, and then I look forward to the lore that unfolds. you explain it best lol.
I feel like Nez is like a psionic virus. And like Skira, his power and being will remain as long as he lives on within someone’s mind.
I think this is the secret of Darkness Resurrection. To become the embodiment of a concept so as long as that concept exists in the universe, the one who is it's embodiment can never truely die, to become the final shape of that concept
Savathûn being brought back from a Final Death by Oryx through great and incredible acts of Cunning and Xivu Arath from her's by great acts of War
As long as there are dreams there will be nightmares and for long as there are nightmares and fear there will be Nezarec
@@ShadowEclipse777 but then how is it we fully killed Oryx if he embodies a ruler
@@Hoodagames isn't he still alive? We turned him into a gun.
@@Hoodagames Oryx is an exception due to the fact that his essence was harnessed into the Touch of Malice, allowing him to live on through that in some capacity.
@@HoodagamesIIRC oryx isn't the embodiment of a leader.He was the great navigator before he took the tablets from the worm God and became the king.
RIP Zavala... 😢😭 Per Audacia Ad Astra
I like how, no matter where you are in the universe, there's always going to be some form of Michael out there.
Pretty sure Nezarec is deep in our mindscape watching us kill and destroy from our own eyes much like oryx and xol who's physically feeding off the destruction while nezarecs doing so psychic
Could Nezarec have something to do with the K1 anomaly? Given his powers and the effects of the artifact as well as the time of its discovery lining up with Nez's presence showing up
So, Nezarec was the reason for Rezyl Azzir becoming Dregen Yor or am I tripping
No you Gucci, that would be sick if they confirm it
Tie you shoelaces cause you tripping hard
I really enjoyed this video. Since the season of plunder my character’s name has been Nyx Disciple of Nezarec. Ironically though my name is Michael. The Nezarec lore has always intrigued me as he gives off vibes of a lovecraftian deity much like Niarlathotep. I was very entertains when I saw one of the raid weapons was called Mykal’s Reverence.
I'm surprised and genuinely baffled that this video didn't contain all of the raid armor lore tabs given the title
I hope we get to read that "hated Nezarec" book for ourselves as a lore book.
Thanks for basically a decade of quality stuff, Byf- Most of my clan has burned out on the game but we all still watch your videos.
Listen byf, thank you so much for your videos. You have helped me through so much! You are legendary, love you man
I was just reading the lore from the armor sets. Very glad to see this right afterwards. Keep up the good videos, and looking forward to that tslayp.
Absolutely love these lore and you guiding us thru it. Thank you
This is awesome, I’m loving this nezarec lore it’s so interesting and entertaining
So he killed one guardian, Crota killed a whole fireteam of legends
Yes, give us all the lore about Nezarec you can muster, I've been waiting for this ever since I aquired that helmet...!
This lore video definitively gives off Lovecraft lore vibes.
Thanks Byf. You rock.
Thanks for the hard work!
"I will *never* be a memory." - Nezarec, probably.
Thanks for being a stalwart in the destiny community, Byf!
Can't wait for you to talk about the raid armor lore. Read it in-game, and it's phenomenal.
Back to regularly scheduled programming. Let's go, DaddyByf!🎉
Definitely keep it up bruh!
I just want to say you're the first and only person I have ever subscribed too as well as turning on the bell notifications. Great work, Gaurdian!
another banger lore video
I really hope we get to see more of the acolytes
ohoooo Byf I see you are also using the new, insane wavesplitter void build
Random thought: I would like a heavy version of the trace rifle. Might be interesting to use a weapon like that.
I have sad news.
Lance Reddick ( Zavalas VA ) has passed away.
@13:55 I needed that, thanks
Your gameplay in these videos reminded me Wavesplitter exists, and it's actually really fun to use right now with Void :D
So so good. Definitely want more.
He does ask a good question with the vex dream thing
It’s funny to me how light is the domain of the physical but all light subtypes are energy weapons and darkness is supposed to be mind or energy but is kinetic weapons
I think that Sparrow lore tab is probably the scariest one I've ever heard
In conjunction with the video a week ago, there is much to be said for Nezarec being an elder god/connected to them. They always exists so long as people think/fear/revere them. This goes hand in hand with the Darkness being a realm of thought where thoughts and dreams are as real as real.
Awesome! Waiting for that 🎉
Byf great vid 👏👍
I know thats no info on them, I still thing they’d be an interesting topic to if so just briefly talk about. To be specific Im talking about the 3 big murals in the final boss room in the No Time Left mission. Another than that your crushing It as always keep up the great work.
Commander Zavala died 😭😭
Lance Reddick is one of my all time favourite actors and is one of the few that could carry an entire show on his acting alone, this is truly a loss for the destiny Community.
He would have deserved a ghost IRL.
dad dad the new byf dropped
Thanks for all the videos boss actually got be back into destiny as a cant stop playing it now 😂🤣just need a raid team and am laughin
I gotta say, Byf is amazing. He has made more sense of thr lightfall lore way better than the actual game!
Lore is usually apart from the direct story, comes afterward.
He’s been doing that for 9 years now
The Cult of the Nightmare God would be the hardest Death Metal band name ever😂😂
[Light shines all colors at once. To draw out only one of its many elements, the Light must be refracted via a prism…]
Rest in peace, Lance/Zavala.
dry cool lore!! need to do the raid now! thanks for sharing!!
btw, you are such a great narrator! you should narrate sci-fi audiobooks!
listen to: Old Man’s War, Ender’s Game, The Mechanical: Alchemy Wars, Fuzzy Nation, Dune, Hyperion, etc.. just naming a few here! 🤓
This is such good lore!
Did a solid double take at Byf using Wavesplitter in the new raid
I love learning more about Bhulk from lore daddy.
A greater, god-like being, feeding on fear who is worshipped through a gruesome book that makes people go insane? Yeah, am I the only one who gets the feeling that this has Lovecraft written all over it? I really like the direction Bungie went into with the Nezarec lore.
Byf you legend please do more podcasts with unknown player they are fantastic. Per audacia ad astra.
Nezarec sounds like the Destiny version of an Elder God from Lovecrafts Stories.
Yeah Byf compared him to Nyarlathotep just the other day.
I think I need a video on the Tree of Silver Wings. I remember it from previous lore tabs and season of arrivals. The raid gives me more questions tho
The sidearm is actually REALLY good for Crucible. I used it in Comp last night and HOOOOLY shit it's REALLY good
The lore of RoN gives me huge HP Lovecraft vibes and I love it! "Of Hated Nezarec" seems to be the Destiny equivalent of the "Necronomicon". In many stories it gets passed on through generations and who reads it goes mad.
Anyone else prefer him showing concept art and fan art in the background over gamepley? It makes it much easier to visualize the lore when you have something like that to reference.
I hope we get an ornament for the exotic helmet that looks like Nezerak's head in the raid.
Can you do a Zavala lore piece? Would love to listen to it in the dark with a bottle of whiskey to drown my sorrows.
9:45 knees weak, palms spaghetti
This mans voice is more smooth than a titan mains brain
4:38-4:42 absolutely destroyed. What are you gonna do about it. Bro said NAH lmao
I keep getting that play of hasturs vibe from "of hated nezarac"
You and TheJez need to make a “monotone complainy guy” video together. Surrounding PvP of course
So looking forward to your thoughts on this lore!
Just what we needed: more characters.
Psions blast were arc in D1 so back in 2017 when I saw they swapped to void I was a bit disappointed
Everyone forgets the psions of the scout legions were arc with flayers using solar and void. I don't think powers are specifically tried to the light. More the light is a conduit
During Splicer, there was that one Eliksni, the 'Temporary' guy with the lanyard. He was searching for his brother, who was supposedly kidnapped and met some sort of gruesome end. We never found out what though, didn't we...
I love your lore videos the most. The others mix up theory too much into the whole thing so it can get convoluded at times with them.
I would enjoy a Psionic Subclass in the far future thats like a rainbow class of Light abilities. Void Blast, maybe an Arc Melee, etc
It wont happen but its on the list of things i could at least *kind of* see happening
Goodbye Lance, we had a great run.
So this is how Destiny ties into Pathways Into Darkness.
Extracting fear sounds like the process used in Monster’s Inc.
My-kell, house of nightmares
Lance Reddick passed away today absolutely sad tragic day today
Wild theory: remember the story of the Rigby’s and how they made a deal with a devil? What if it wasn’t Savathun this whole time… what if Michael’s last name is Rigby?
So these are the new Shadows of Yor
❤❤❤finally the armor lore
I want Byf as my Ghost voice
Was just having a question about Rufus before this video dropped.
Nezarec is like The Evil Dead and Nightmare on Elm Street.
Rare byf titan footage
gah my name is Mykel and this is wild.
Hello Byf!
Still waiting to figure out what The Veil is :(
I think it has to be recent when micheal turned 18, as before beyond light its not likely that someone will be calling them eliksni but it would have been fallen. and finding an eliksni so close to a place where someone is sleeping would make more sense after they joined us in the tower.
I’d imagine psionic power isn’t paracausal as the vex are able to simulate psions
We've got Roofus and Michael, when is Greg going to be an Acolyte?
