Fenix : I WANT THE TRUTH
Artanis : YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH
Karax:"....that adenium shell tho..."
Why are you shouting?
"I am willing to face the truth, old friend, however difficult it may be"
Jim forgave the person that killed you, aldaris and billions of protoss lmao
You can add. "James raynor you great friend who swore to kill the queen of blades and avenge you forgave her due to power of love lmao 😂😂
@@ramzyzerhouni2227 A promise to kill someone loses a lot of it's weight when you learn that killing them would lead to the end of the universe as Jim learned from Zeratul.
there is also the notion that Kerrigan was influenced by Amon when she did most of the crimes
@@IAmebAdger Didn't help that Duran was also manipulating her. Kerrigan thought she was so clever, but she was the one getting played, not the one doing the playing.
@@IAmebAdger Pretty sure Amon didn’t have direct control of her like he did with the Overmind, but he was quietly influencing her actions.
2:19 I love that little shrug Artanis gives. :D
He really doesnt know what to make of it.
All I can picture is Fenix waking up and saying "Skippy! It's good to see you young executor!"
"Skippy?"
I like how Lowko missed the flashing NEW on the Infantry Tab and clicked it away :p Luckily he found it again.
Lowko blindness
Fenix/Talandar: Hello there!
Artanis: Praetor Fenix!
Gemorge i love you
Artanis: You are a valiant one!
This mission took me like 5 attempts on brutal. Any ground based composition just gets shredded cause they just throw units at you endlessly. Mass Phoenixes is the only way to go cause unlike multiplayer, they can lift and fire without channelling, so once you reach critical mass, every single enemy unit they send can actually be countered/lifted by the phoenix (but in normal circumstances phoenixes dont have much DPS so you wouldnt think they would work). Also since there actually arent that many buildings you have to destroy aside from a few bunkers and cannons.
i found easier to mass fenix/immortal/energizer army and wipe out two enemy bases.
It was easy to do phonix,zealot and Energizer
Yep, mass phoenix. You do need some ground troops, but 2 or 3 to 1 phoenix to immortal/zealot with about 4-6 energizers is ideal.
took me 3 tries with an all ground based army on brutal u just have to take out the two bases goo/stalker immortal dts u have to enter the terran base from the north east ramp rather than the south one once ur up there its easy to clear the protoss base is super easy to clear u enter from the south west entrance and move north in both areas u have to have quite a bit of antiair but dts will shred most of the troops allowing immortals to clean up and goons/stalkers are focus firing voids bcs and carriers
Also if u did shakuras, glacius then korhal "fenix" has some intresting voice lines
Dark templars, just disable their auto cast and use their hability manually, a bunch of dts deal more damage than a nuke and with a low cd
Fenix always wonders when he have time: I’m I a dragoon or a zealot?
Then he realized that he is a fucking helicopter (I'm not kidding look up his thunderous charge, he can fly)
He is no ordinary Helicopter
He is a Zealot-Dragoon-Helicopter!
So even in the times of the Protoss, we will still have apache helicopters.
Fuck yea.
queue dangerzone sound effect
Docta Fresh Zealoonicopter
he sexually identifies as an attack helicopter
So they essentially extended the joke with Fenix's name. He 'died' as a Zealot, reborn as a Dragoon, then died again. But was reborn, again, as a purifier Immortal-thing. IIRC, every time he died it was in a 'blaze of glory' too.
Edit: Oh right, well he died the first time under a blazing sun, so there we go.
Also, he sounds like Alarak.
This is not a Lowko video. This guy is a replica of a real Lowko.
It is a Purifier version of Lowko. Don't you see the orange?
Oh and a little tip Lowko, make the units that you acquire for the specifik mission. They make missions in such a way that the units that you get for that mission are the best on that mission aswell.......
When Lowko went to the solar core the first time, I thought "He's big on early economy, so he'll go for chrono surge and orbital assimilator, and then add Solar Lance to use his solarite." At first I was wrong, but lo and behold, he came back and proved me right. :) Good job, Lowko!
The BroodWar background music during conversations caused me goosebumps of nostalgia constantly. Thumbs up for this, Lowko, from a Protoss main :D
Fenix my boy! Oh it was so good to see him again. So many memories :`)
Right bro!!!
Lowko pondering the ramifications of personality downloading.
Have you forgotten SOMA, Lowko? Have you blocked it from your memories?
The moment that someone has their brain copied to an AI computer, successfully, will immediately realize they are now sitting there old and dying still, just with a robot next to them saying 'sup bro'
Love you Lowko! With mass fenix this mission is very easy... And if you have automated gas, you should build the 4 gasses at the beggining of the game. GG!
Is it only me or does the energizer sound cooler than the regular sentry? The same goes for the purifier colossus and wrathwalker they sound so cool.
Because it is quite literally a weaponized and militarized Energizer battery?
It's basically a moving pylon. sentry is a moving shield battery. wrathwalkers are cool.
Download brain and upload it something else ?
SOMA is right game where they doing that !
Or Portal with GLADOS :D
I have played these campaigns so many times yet watching @Lowko play them is more fun then playing them myself ever was. Please keep them coming
5:28 is the general premise of the game SOMA
love when lowko is really into the situations and connecting the story with brood war :D
I loved that you got pushed this video. Great job Lowko!
I know how to play protoss...
*make* *a* *big* *force* *and* *move* *across* *the* *map*
“What makes you , you ?”
Interesting thought experiment
Lowko making static defence!? Unbelievable!.......I like it
5:47 It’s called freaky Friday Lowko. 😂
If you do the Glacius mission before the Korhal one, Fenix will say he doesn't remember Raynor, but he can see why Raynor was his friend.
Actually Artanis explains that he used to call Raynor friend and they had stood shoulder to shoulder on the battlefield before, Fenix then hopes that he'll do so again in the future.
5:50 love these small tidbits Lowko, really spice up the lets plays.
The worst part about brain / conciousness downloading (or really what it is, copying) is that, it is impossible for it to be the same "you" that wakes up in the new body.. That's one part that futurists dont seem to consider. "They" will never, ever, experience life as an AI inside an immortal robotic shell, even if we achieve that technology tomorrow.
So no matter how tempting and cool it may sound, if you were able to "transfer" your conciousness to an immortal machine shell, you really ought to think twice. Because the only thing "you" right here will experience, is death.
Because the moment you copy your pattern into another form, even if that form is advanced enough to be sentient and self-aware just as we are, "it" will awaken as its own sense of self, the "you" that are reading this will never experience that awakening, because "you" will cease to exist once the copying is done and your biological brain is destroyed.
I suppose it's best thought of as, falling asleep, and never waking up, but its another identity that wakes up and thinks its you, and thinks it continued a single continous existance due to retaining your memories.
"It" will tell everyone "it's still me, it worked, i transferred!". But it's not the same identity, it's a copy of a now erased identity. Nobody will know that the previous original is now actually dead, because the new one believes it's the same one.
In some ways, some theorists ponder wether loss of conciousness is actually that, the 'death' of the current self, and upon regaining conciousness such as after sleep, it's actually a new rebooted sense of self that merely thinks it's a continuation of the previous one, due to memories.
The only way for the "you" reading this to actually get in another body, synthetic or not, would be if conciousness is something immaterial beyond the physical, in that case, perhaps there's a way to transfer the "soul".
But if you dont believe that, or dont want to believe in anything beyond the purely materialistic, then i'm afraid there's simply no way you'll ever be able to experience any continous existance after your biological brain is copied.
Because you cant actually "transfer" anything, only copy.
Even "transfer" of information or quantum states via entanglement, isnt transferring one particle to another location, it's copying the state of one particle onto another particle. There is no "moving transfer from A to B" of information from one physical thing to another in nature, only copying A to B and deleting A.
love your content and the longer videos
To clean up any confusion with Purifer Fenix. When Fenix got killed the first time in episode 3, Aldaris got his mind scanned for the revival purifer program before waking him up in the Dragoon and the back ups memory was altered to think he was just send to the purifer research base for other reasons. This got lore fans fairly mad since Aldaris was big on Protoss traditions including dying in glorious combat and so him being involved in a revival of the purifier program seems out of character for him and was only done just so Fenix could be in the game.
To be fair you can easily handwave it as "well the science team division made a scan of his mind just in case Purifers program will be Greenlit and then when Aiut went in flames downladed it into working prototype and fabricated memory of getting direct order to copy of a person, someone who that copied mind will never question - current Judicator Aldaris as a fail-safe in case no one will be alive from team to restart Purifers programm main site"
Using the phrase "killed" is a little off, since you can't be put inside a dragoon or immortal if you're dead, but beaten and crippled is more appropriate. I don't really think it's a lore issue though, the purifier revival program isn't the original purifier program and was developing a variety of weapons under a variety of ethical levels. Aldaris was loyal to the conclave more than he was loyal to the traditions of the protoss, at least before brood war.
Since the conclave sanctioned the research there on glacius, i doubt it would've been something that he'd raise his voice against even if he had any personal reservations about the idea
Are you sure? Because this fenix doesnt remember antioch
*If you like anihilators, the 3rd type of immortal is gonna blow ur mind then Lowko*
The 3rd variant can't shoot air. And that shadow cannon is really, REALLY good.
That was an amazing comeback. Way to adapt.
A fun fact lowko might not've picked up on: Ulnar, the homeworld of the xelnaga, is the setting of Zeratuls last prophecy, the vision from the overmind of the protoss's last stand, back in WoL.
Strangely, in WoL it's a natural planet rather then the giant space diamond we have discovered today. But Artanis's speech from that mission will get reused soon enough.
It's only labelled as Ulnar in the editor, nothing in-game confirms that it's actually supposed to be Ulnar (but that vision is also something entirely fake that Ouros made up to trick zeratul, so it doesn't exactly need to be accurate anyway)
Good thing that in Co-op you can see actually where the enemy attack wave is on the minimap. In the campaign it really becomes an issue - amon just throws deathballs of units at you and when you attack yourself atm you just loose your base. Pretty silly. Solar lance saved my butt a BUNCH of times coz of that. xD
Between Fenix's machine identity crisis, Rohana's nursing of the wounds of the past, and allying with the tyrant Alarak, Legacy of the Void has so many great themes. It pushes a bunch of those good sci-fi buttons and I'm glad it exists... even if the epilogue was disappointing.
No Lowko its not really Fenix, its a different warrior that just caries Fenix's memories...
fun thing is some of the protoss from campaign are the champion personalities in co-op, notably talis from the prologue is the champion adept
unlike co-op though 90% of the lotv missions have their waves created from their bases rather than just spawned, this means killing an enemy base results in no more attack waves from there
Fenix being deadhnaught boy, the best boy.
Lowko, you just talked about how overpowered the shadow cannons were. But when the carriers were beating up your guys you just had the Annilhators walking around underneath without doing anything.
That classic StarCraft music in the background... makes me want to play it a 3rd time in the same span of a month.
Lowko just referenced the entire premise of the Altered Carbon series
Protip: chrono surge is trash, you used it one time. So is stasis field. As has been said in a wonderful way before, why freeze something that you can flat out kill? (Stasis vs Beam) with orbital assimilation you should cap the gas asap
oh boy.
When Lowko just described the plot of SOMA
The first time you completed this mission, you did not build any static defence, and missed the expansion
You have come a long way... I'm so proud of you
43:11 just like in that carbot video
ua-cam.com/video/c3H7G5v75Dc/v-deo.html
Such cruelty. I like it!
what cruelty?
what do you mean?
The Fenixes in the video you posted.
ah, I didn't watch it fully when I was searching for it
I just remembered that such moment was
and I send it here
I guess I'll have to watch it once again
Lowko
In further missions, when the eye icon is avialable on Fenix, click multiple times on him so he will tell a lot of stories about his battles
5:25 wtf lowko?! I did NOT expect Soma spoilers during SC2 playthrough.
Giving Collosi stim is hilariously OP
Originally when I played Legacy of The Void when I unlocked energizers I never switched back to sentries nor back to the later variant of them.
Be sure to keep sentinels in mind. Little bit of an Adun upgrade spoiler, but later on you will get the ability to passively heal mechanical units. That includes Sentinels. Healing, resurrecting templar FTW.
It is actually really fascinating to think about the way to clone someone's mind and then awake it in some kind of machine. Pretty much requires that we first get our AI technology to a level where we could actually say that a robot has "feelings". Copying somebody's mind would be the next step.
You actually saw the expansion this time. I am so proud of your improvement Lowko lol (in case it wasn't obvious, in your first play through of this mission, you never saw it, even though it was on the minimap, and complained about the lack of an expansion).
I find it amusing to watch Fenix dance during conversations
Lowko have you ever heard of a horror game called Soma? It essentially is about scanning people's brains and recreating them in robotic bodies. It's really fascinating, and it is very similar to Fenix's situation.
The xel'naga didnt want to be because a loooong time ago, both zerg and protos rebelled against them and they have been killed.
By the way, I found that if you have energisers, you can use them to build up static defence faster than you normally be able to because their power generation ability allows you to build structures without having to wait for the pylons to finish warping in. I have not seen any UA-cam play through where someone uses them in that way though and I don't understand why.
Jono98806 Because it is usually unnesesary as outside of your base, you don't need Static D, and in your base you put pylons (that later will serve as a power source for static D) to generate supply to get more probes.
"Is there ever going to be a point where we know everything?"
Short answer: No.
Longer answer: It has been proven that there is more that is true than is provable. Thus anything that is true, but not provable, must be accepted on faith. Does that count as known? Should it?
22:46 I haven't seen the Gateway transformed that fast into Warp Gate like before... :o
*skipping ahead multiple times to avoid the metaphysical ruminations of Lowko*
There is a TV show called "altered carbon" from Netflix, that works with this ideal, that we can upload our minds and just change the body.
49:47 offensive GG by Lowko!
now i can finally watch something while contemplating life!
My finals tomorrow lowko... i guess theres always time for your content
I'd you love that brain scanning part you need to see the movie chappie.
In the solar core cut scene Karax still has his nerve cords! Amon spy.
Keep up the great content so I can spy on y-
I mean uhhhh... watch your videos
at 34:42 ,damnit Lowko,you chose a terrible spot to use time stop there
Ohh yes baby, i was waiting for this!😁
On the topic of downloading your body and waking up years later as a cloned version, if you haven't already Lowko, you need to play SOMA. It very expertly touches on that topic. Im not the biggest fan of exploration horror games but SOMA is a breed of its own.
Fenix: I HAVE RETURNED... umm a-AGAIN
God I want to be used as a personality for AI, 500 years in the future.
ITS MONDAY MY DUDES
Take a drink every time lowko says “anticipated“
19:48 - 20:05 Good call out, never thought of how flawed this plan was lol
I had an existential crisis for a moment there.
47:08 Not only do they lift automatically, they lift two units at once AND they can attack their own lifted target! Campaign phoenixes are insane.
Yes, of course he is Fenix, the best one! ^^
For those who don't know what the Ihan-rii are: the Ihan-rii is the name the Protoss called the Xell'nagha before they found out what their actual name was. Rohana knows that because she is a Preserver. The Protoss called the Xell'nagha the Ihan-rii since they found out they existed. That was way back when the Protoss lived in tribes and didn't even know how to write. They found out that the Ihan-rii were actually called Xell'nagha about a hundred years before the creation of the Khalla.
Fenix's movements when talking looked like he was rapping
Lowko, it wouldn't be you that wakes up, just someone or something else with all your memorie and charateristics
I love the fact that I can watch Lowkos new vids when I come home after a night ought
5:20 Ooof, you've got it all wrong. The issue with Fenix is not that he's not his original self. The issue is that he believes he's been turn into a Dragoon, when in fact he is a Purifier...
Dragoon or Purifier, he's still a copy after his original body/mind.
When u have automated refineries, it's best to just get them asap, so u can make ur gas for the duration of the mission as it doesnt run out
@LowkoTV, I think you can use Energizers to speed up your turrets too
the energizer also effect static defense
so you can just warp in one and use it as pylon
"Fenix, you seems distressed."
"How did you know there is no emotions on me face."
Also I think the only thing we will never know as a specie is that if we know everything there is to know.
And that's also why we will never know everything there is to know.
If that strong brother fenix being double crossed to die a warriors death doesnt make u sad ur not human. Kerrigan..
I like that when we first met Karax, you could see that his nerve cords were severed, but now he has some dread locks that replace where his nerve cords used to be. New hands and new protoss hair, Karax is a hell of an engineer and barber apparently😎
Edit: again: i hate the sound animation for the energizers, its so gross.
5:30
Lowko, that is the plot of "SOMA"
Not the same Fenix from the end of Brood war. His time with Raynor made him more human like.
You should play Soma Lowko, its basically Fenix backstory with horror/rpg elements
It’s odd that Protoss is by far the most vespine hungry race yet they don’t have access to micro filtering.
Fenix is such a grumpy robot/Dragoon
Hey Lowko, when you were talking about the concept of downloading a person's brain and transferring it to another body I thought about a game I played a while ago called SOMA. I don't know if you've heard of it, but it's made by Paradox Interactive, the people who made Amnesia. It's an atmospheric horror game which explores this concept, maybe if you have some free time you could think about playing it, it's only about 8-10 hours long. Thanks again for the videos, they're great!
Boy lets go in the direction of minerals
About that “download brain data and in 200 years you wake up.” There is a game based around that called Soma. Horror game. You should check it out.
50 minute episode....
My body is ready.
Chrono on stargate is like the EP 3 of season 6 starcrafts
Downloading minds is a theme for a series called Black Mirror, you should see it.
Dammit lowko! don't you know an episode of one of my favorite shows just came out!? What do I do....
Screw it! I'm multitasking!
19:50 Or Artanis comes to xelnaga , turn on a massive alarm clock of some kind to awaken them and their reaction definitely coud be like "ugh turn it off! and give as a couple more centuries!" xDDDDDDDD .... And artanis gives a couple of sentry´s as a gift xD 8)
