Apologies for the cliff! I stop where the end of the video is to mess with Umbra mods for a bit and mistakenly thought the confrontation was part of the Prelude to War when editing (it's been a while since I did this). So the confrontation, a bit of Prelude and solo blind Lollypop boss on the next episode.
That "take away its pain" bit legit made me cry when I played through this. I'm sure many of us can relate to the anguish of a terrible memory that just won't go away, and being able to soothe it is a beautiful thing.
Canon: the Tenno's ability to empathize with the ones they fear and act compassionately toward their enemies is the core mechanism by which Warframes are able to function. In a way, empathy is the most powerful ability in the Warframe universe. Oh, and you mentioned being concerned at the idea of piloting a dead body. The good news is, you're not. The perhaps more disturbing news is, you're more or less piloting a basically comatose, virtually unkillable body in exchange for soothing its tortured, frightened mind.
I was reading and writing little bits of stories from a lot earlier than I started gaming, so picking up these things comes a lot more naturally to me than following simple instructions I guess😅 probs my favourite part of going through the quests has been throwing wild conjecture at the wall and seeing what sticks
@@dimp1y Although I'm not a writer, I'm familiar with this approach) I often catch myself thinking that I predict some plot twists in advance. Even though with DE it's difficult because they're too crazy in terms of creating lore for their games 😹
The orokin made themselves blue guys and for some reason, the higher up people gave themselves long dominant arms. This is odd because it’s canon that orokin valued perfect symmetry.
Blue in reference to the term “blueblood” which basically was a way to call someone a noble of some kind or of the upper class, the long arms are weird but could be explained in headcanon as them valuing domination and anything that is less useful (non dominant hand for example) would be symbolically neglected.
@@dimp1y True and to be honest it can be either or both as inspiration since the Orokin were the top 1% elites (more like top 0.02% or smth but eh) and they really overstepped their boundaries as humans and saw themselves as above all else kinda like gods.
Maybe the long arm is significant if the Orokins hierachy of Power and so they see irregularity from the norm as a statement of power instead of......"irregular"
I always feel like the mechanics and design of warframe are therapy for all the shitty games out there. Then you get to the story and just go "Oh, this is just actual therapy".
The Sacrifice is what the kids would say "peak cinema" or something ,love this quest. Btw is there a part 2 of this episode or something? The cut at the end before the final confrot with Ballas left me a bit weirded out.
it'll be in part two with some of Prelude to War and solo blind Ropalolyst... it's been so long I got the scenes confused and thought the main quest was over there and the confrontation was in Prelude (apparently not, I just stop there on the VOD to mess with the mods on Umbra for ageesss)
@@dimp1y Lol alrighty fair, that last bit was the only thing that felt a bit weird. Regarding your community post, i got no issues with the editing/cuts/zooms, was just the final bit :v

Yes the room gets more infested At the time of the video it didn't clock how much beef was between them so I mistakenly assumed this was the standard 'warframe-ing' process, but understand differently now
@@dimp1y Even without any personal beef the Orokin were generally extremely dickish to warframes (both to-be and extant), even before we get to anything inherent to the warframe process itself. I'm not actually sure Ballas stands out from his crowd in terms of assholery.

😩
Imagine you're a warframe reliving your worst memory for the umpteenth time, and then a teenager in a gimp suit walks in.
Bro 🤣🤣🤣
a CENTURIES old teenager. dont forget the tenno were asleep for hundreds of unknown years after the orokin fell.
Those should NOT be in the same sentence

'3D printing' as the base idea was explained to me recently and changed everything
@@dimp1yalso just so you know the warframes that you maje in your fiundry are copies of the originals
never seen umbra corner someone before he's learning, ending after the lotus line is crazy
5:54 how can you not know what's happening 80% of the time, but casually predict one of the major Warframe secrets, down to the small details 😂

"RAAHHHH"-umbra, the sacrifice

That is pretty meta

@@Fuphu blue skin could also be linked to divinity, if you think of some Hindu gods like Vishnu

This quest makes me cry every time. And I've prob replayed it a dozen times now. Just hits hard, and hits home
Don't worry, chat. It only gets worse when you learn about what we do to these husk of former people...
Shells of volunteers and victims controlled by forsaken children trained to be weapons. Pew Pew Space Ninjas!
hello young tenno, do not fear, the void protects, the void welcomes
Uh i like the effect you put on ballas in those memory-scenes. Noice.
tyty

such a good quest.
Sooo…who is going to explain to her the man in the wall?
can anyone explain the man in the wall really? 🤣
25:00 só agonia de ver os players não lendo as instruções kkkk
Why does it Zoom in and out randomly at times during cutscenes ?
throw you off?

Feeling better kiddo?
think I need more therapy, good job we still have New War to go
@dimp1y As Confucius once said: "Buckle up buckeroo."
You ain’t seen nun yet wait till u get were the vets at its gettin real right u still early in
Read the Codex , React to Warframe Lore
… then u shouldn’t do the chains of harrow quest….
@@jasecooper4998 too late :(
Komi is not your forte :D
not even slightly
Somehow I'm not a fan the cuts that made it into the video...
I’m sure you can watch the full stream somewhere, maybe her twitch?
the only cuts that were a bit confusing at first was when balis dialogue continued without moving the dax view side to side
@@shikimoriamv1145 alas that was me not realising I was supposed to move my head at first 😅
I don't really know what you mean if you could explain a bit more?
