Never realized how sad his story actually is. He lost his brothers in the war and his dad. His mom is probably suffering from Alzheimer's because she didn't even remember who he is...he had to say “Mom it's me, Elliot, your son” when he called her. Mirage deserves happiness.
I had a theory about caustic and pathfinder being related. The theory is that caustic wanted living test subjects (true) and he wasn’t allowed so therefore he made pathfinder And it is confusing since he does talk about the respiratory system when skydiving
I didn't like Mirages personality before . . . . Now that I've watched this video . . . . . I feel incredibly bad for him . . . . Especially when his mother couldn't really remember him
Mirage wasn't actually talking about his hair. He was talking about his brothers but then covers up the sadness by making a joke. But then he gets sad again and that's why he had to leave.
Maybe mirage actually does like pathfinder but is afraid to show his real emotions because he doesnt want to loose another person he cares about. Loss of his dad brothers and now his mother is loosening her memory. Pathfinder would be another potential for loss.
Big Brain. Pathfinder in that poster says Mirage is his best friend. I think we should take that for its literal meaning. They actually are best friends.
Mirage main here. I fell in love with his character and abilities. He seems to force fake confidence to hide his insecurities/emotions. I love how blatantly he states depressing things in a humorous kind of way and I feel like I can relate to him in that kind of way.
His lines about pork chops are some of my favorite in the game and to witness him recording a message to his mom about how pork chops are her favorite broke my heart. He’s always been one of my favorite legends.
4:19 This is actually really damn sad. The way he stutters like he can't believe it and his whole demeanor flips for a second. You can hear the heartbreak
I had a theory that the holo pilot in titanfall was one of mirage's brothers that died on the frontier & the reason Mirage doesn't take a liking to pathfinder is because MRVIN robots were mass produced back then & pathfinder may remind him of his brothers death in a way so he tries to keep his distance
Seeing this was painful since it hit so close to home, but at the same time it was nice to be able to confront those feelings for a change. It’s very difficult to describe.
I would not be surprised if the lore video for Mirage wounds up being him going on a rampage. He's lost almost everything already. It's only a matter of time before he snaps...
Here is another line from Mirage from Winter Express."Alright!Legends...and Pathfinder...GEEEEEEET READY!"And i find this one pretty funny (Edit)The line is specifficaly for when there is only 1 Pathfinder in the game
@@eddiepottr You make no sense for saying his comment makes no sense. Be charitable to ideas even if you can't necessarily agree. Also you are simply proposing another possible explanation that you are not even sure about either
Ohhh so Mirage is like the Hercule of Apex Legends. He seeks fame and glory because he thinks it’ll make him friends but instead the richer he gets the more distant he becomes or feels
Could you imagine how pissed he'd be? Like holy crap NOW you decide to show up after being missing for all those years, and he's had to look after his mum all by himself, and go through losing his brothers and dad to find out one of them have been alive all this time, he'd be happy they are alive but oh boy, it's gona hurt
As a person ho has a grandmother ho I saw as my official mother ho suffers from alzheimer (and now she is in the final stages of not knowing ho anybody is) Hearing Mirage speak to his mother like that broke me, it was a near copy feeling I had when I spoke to her in the phone when I was telling her about my graduation Im falling in love with this characters their stories arent cooky cutter like overwatch, they have real world problems and face real world issues like we would face ourselves And mirage one of the characters I side line, has become my favorite character in a game ever Is wierd, I never saw a character feel so........me
@@asriel_4955 agree, it feels like they are holding back on it's world, the first time overwatch was released I was hook on it's universe but now it seems they are more interested in just dropping all the violence and Racial metaphors for a more disney like world where the conflicts and matters aren't important I mean you have a world with so much rich lore and conflict and they don't do anything with it
It is. It's hard to feel for the characters if they're stories get constant retcons plus other bad things like turning Jack you-know-what, Baptiste's obscure plot, etc.
Mirage acts over the top and wants to be the highlight so his mom never forgets him. Hard to forget someone, people always talk about and his face is everywhere. Plus he clearly has a sadness he's trying to hide. He has abandonment issues due to losing his dad, brothers and slowly his mom. So he doesn't want to come off as a burden which is why he tries to sound smart and have this beaming personality. He doesn't want to be left all alone. So on one end. He wants his mom to never forget him. On the other end, he knows one day she will be gone. And he doesn't want to be alone for when that day does happen.
Damn.... And I practically clowned on the dude. Out of all the backstories from the legends, Mirage's is probably the most saddest and possibly relateble.
Mirage story really sticks to the feelings, damn i feel sorry for him, there's a lot of real people out there in the world who had the same story kinda, damn that's sad even tho it's just a game
Nah, wattson's dad passed before the ring that they made was released in the games. It's in wattson's lore and it's really heart whelming in the end because after the funeral lifeline, bangalore, gibi, and even caustic comforted her at her home.
Mirage lost his brothers, father, and some of his friends; and his mother is forgetting him. But he is always trying to put a smile on everyone’s face. Now that is a Legend!
I think it’s only respawns because of the apex games and if he dies outside of the arena , he dies for good. I think it’s a contract thing. It would make sense so that the apex games wouldn’t have to hire randoms everyday a legend dies.
Eveytime I hear that call recording I feel really sorry for Mirage but also get an inspiration to be strong as mountain and keep yourself together. Just bamboozle even the deepest pain u feel
I think revenant could be one of mirages brothers who died and than he tried to bring one back but he thought he failed so he left and never knew it worked
I think it's more like his brother died as a pilot(Cause simulacrum are only from dead pilots in Titanfall) they brought him back without anyone's acknowledgement and now he's out for revenge even in the trailer it's mirage he is finishing
I love that instead of making it some dark war type thing, they make it some fun games that’s just a few friends having fun, (very dangerous fun). Except for Maggie. Maggie is just fighting because she wants to get out. This is exactly why I love respawn
What if Mirage's mom made pathfinder and he hates pathfinder BECAUSE mother gave more attention to pathfinder when she was working on him.... But it's just a theory.... A GAME THEORY
when the rest of your squad leaves, one of the things he can say is "and im talking to myself again.... i need some friends..." me too man but you good, mirage?

Holo pilots in multiplayer are generic pilots. His brothers would be 3 out of 1,000
ok zoomer his brothers then are pilots then.
Maybe it's Droz/Davis from the 6-4/last resort (one of them has a holo helmet, forgot which one)

“He makes everyone else look good” -Crypto
Dude, this is seriously making me cry.
If you can be respawned, why was mirage worried about leaving his mother childless?
I think it’s only respawns because of the apex games and if he dies outside of the arena , he dies for good. I think it’s a contract thing. It would make sense so that the apex games wouldn’t have to hire randoms everyday a legend dies.
He's such a great character and really fleshed out
Honestly I thought that mirage was friends with pathfinder and was just sarcastic, they just seem like they’d be best friends

Mirage is probably the most technologicle person in the outlands

I think revenant could be one of mirages brothers who died and than he tried to bring one back but he thought he failed so he left and never knew it worked

I think it's more like his brother died as a pilot(Cause simulacrum are only from dead pilots in Titanfall) they brought him back without anyone's acknowledgement and now he's out for revenge even in the trailer it's mirage he is finishing
Revenant was made 400 years before the current time so unless mirage is a time lord, this theory is a bust
