I honestly don’t know what to say man you have amazing talent, the way you’ve brought these stories into video form is just absolutely stunning. I feel like you will turn the Abberation stories into an absolute masterpiece, amazing job Neddy I can’t thank you enough for this.
“I’ll have to continue this later. One of the members of the caravan just arrived, and is saying something about rocks being alive? Which is of course ridicu-” I couldn’t stop laughing. I just picture Helena standing there having a bruh moment🤣😂
So funny story, I got scorched without ever having gone to ragnarock. (And I played singleplayer at the time) and had no clue about rock golems. Well cut to my third day of playing scorched, just out scouting for metal on my raptor. See a few nodes with a rock in the center of them, come walking up to pick up like 20 for a pike and out pops the golem from that plain rock. I don't normally get scared from video games, but in that moment I nearly shit my self. Then just stared at it in awe and confusion from a distance once I got away. RIP raptorzilla, your death gave me the chance to survive.
What an end teaser!!! These things are so damn good. I've watched the full Island series at least 3 times and now I can go back and start my 2nd watch through of SE. Thank you for this. Looking forward to what's next.
Can't wait for both characters, and the story! I've played ark for a while and so I'm exited to see the take on this story, the only problem is, extinction has no ascension/ending, so let's see what they come up with!
@@NeddyTheNoodle Not sure if you were being sarcastic but, Extinction, the one after Aberration, before genesis. The Earth "Ark". Unless it isn't an actual part of the story, like "The Center"
I like how serious this is. The stories are really amazing but imagine if the new generation was around.. Like.. Helena would notice a random person taming dodos then she asks something like "Why are you taming such useless creatures?" Then suddenly the dodo one shots a rex
Its just so rewarding to see you growing as a content creator Ned. Machinima is something that Ark creators are not doing enough of at all! You have truly earned yourself the spot at the top of that genre amongst Ark creators.(UpfromtheDepths is good aswell) ;)
Words can not express just how much I loooove this! Wildcard, you better NOT fuck up with the upcoming animated series. THIS, is beautiful, and if that series disappoints us, I will always consider this to be THE series to watch the story. Hell, even if it doesn't disappoint, you, Neddy, and all who helped with this project are gods.
Thank you so much for giving me a hint about how he become that thing and also that last scene “Rock Well…What have you done?!”it was perfect well deserved wait.😊👍
oh my goodness!! I can't wait for this!! you guys have done an absolutely stunning job with all of these, I feel like i'm watching an actual tv show series!
And that’s how your earn subs with great content, not scream begging for people to “smash” that sub button, with a high pitch voice, and spiky hair. Well done. Can’t wait to see more.
Thank you. It certainly takes longer, but the content itself is what I care far more about than the cliche allure of subscriptions and likes -- not that I don't appreciate them, as they dictate my pay to an extent. I just want to make cool stuff that I would watch, and that's all this is :)
These videos, the voice acting, the montages, it's all sooo on point! I think it deserves something more grand. Here is my suggestions, you actually have some modders (the community is full of talented people), create an Ark mod that INSERTS these videos into the game when you trigger it's correlating explorer note. I suggest halting the XP multiplier until your cutscene is over. This way the player can enjoy the cutscene without losing time on the XP bonus. You could just insert the voice acting as a read of the note, or you could make it a whole cutscene with the voice acting! Personally, I would add that mod on my server. Does anyone else agree with me?
Sounds like a project someone is more to request to create then commission. Who knows, if someone sees this comment and is really determined, it might just happen.
My server is PVE only. Theirs other servers that do the same, but yeah, you make a good point about ot not being practical for PVP. I still think theirs a community for it.
That was amazing! I did guess you’d pull the first parts of Rockwell’s transformation into the Lovecraftian horror he is now with the Corruption Skin of Extinction and the Corrupted Survivor Skin of Genesis Part 2, and Gen2 did give you much to work with. I’m also still convinced you will personally voice Santiago in Extinction like you did before instead of a Vin Diesel soundalike. Not every survivor needs an in-canon voice representation. The ending sneak peek was also bone-chilling. Hearing Helena’s hurt that the one friend she had turned out to be such a monster on the inside now becoming the outside was absolutely powerful. Can’t wait to see how you tackle Helena, Rockwell, Mei-Yin, Diana, and the Students in Aberration.
The very end scene. I was like "ohhhhhh!!!!!!!" I cannot wait for aberration! Definitely my favourite part of the lore. Keep it up Ned. These videos are incredible!
Woohohohohoho can’t wait for the aberration stories especially Rockwell’s full descent into madness which ends up with his mutation into the monster we see in aberration then Genesis
Another masterpiece put together by you and your team, Ned. And another Ark fully discovered. Thank you once again for making this series and putting so much time and effort into it. I literally cried when we saw Helena and Rockwell reunite, before she knew what her old friend would turn into. I can't wait for Aberration!
THANK YOU! For being a part of it. You are a fantastic creator and I just love everything you do. Please keep well, and please keep creating if your heart is in it! :)
Not only the best way to learn about the lore, but the greatest effort of storytelling via editing, body acting in game, and voice acting. I absolutely love this little mini series. I currently am playing scorched as well with friends, so having Raia's video out fixes the issues that I have with reading them. I cannot wait for Rockwell's decent into madness, and I'm so excited for Aberration as its my favorite and yet my least finished map. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't feeling the hype from the end of this video. Because of this project, you have inspired me and a friend to try our hand at doing a playthrough and progressing through the arks, ascending, and doing our own storyboard to become hopefully a comic later. We have beaten the Island so far. Please keep up the amazing work, Neddy, and to those that provide the voice acting and body acting in game as well.
Wonderful work! Great body acting by both the body actors and the voice work. Great sets and use of locations. Loved Radar! It was so fulfilling to see a Scorched Earth ascension. Can't wait for my favourite map's story!
I cannot get enough of these explorer note story videos! I love them and cannot wait for the aberration explorer notes to be made. Thank you for these videos, that are phenomenal 😊
Aahhh that cliff hanger. Fantastic work as always. Im excited for the next chapter. Thank you neddy and the brilliant team for continuing to bring the story to life 😊
I've played Ark ever since it was in game preview for Xbox one and you bring my love for the game to an astronomically higher number than simply playing, thank you Ned
SE is so underrated and has one of the best soundtracks in it as well. Another awesome video, can't wait for Aberration! For some reason I really like the students little stories and I wonder how will you present that! Adding rockwell garden soundtrack when he enters the video was such a nice touch too :)
This series needs to keep going until the very end, it's magnificent, changes some of my perspective on ARK itself, now I know that this is not just a survival game, it's a full fledge stories that collides to each other.
Se my fav map and I always liked the explorer note story's and boy did u nail it with all 4 of them and a nice touch with your idea of ascention mate. Once again be proud in what u created. Amazing.
OMG THIS IS SOOOOO GOOOF LIKE HELLAA GOOD! BTW I'M SUPER DUPER MEGA EXCITED FOR ABBERATION I REALLY CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR HER VOICE AGAIN! OMGGG, ESPECIALLY MEI YIN!
Neddy my man I stumbled on one of these and I've been waiting for new ones ever since. Keep up the great work, definitely the best ark lore videos out there.
Such amazing work! Thank you for it. I've read all the notes, but seeing the whole story unfold in front of my eyes is something else. And many kudos to the voice actors. Amazing, all of them!
Ok, so what do we need to do so some streaming hire you and you're team? My good Lord, this series is AMAZING! I never thought Ark lore would give me goosebumps! Waiting every second for the next chapter!
This was awesome! And that little Aberration teaser at the end? Gave me the chills. It’s going to be epic. I can’t wait to see what you do next with this story. Keep up the amazing work, you’re doing a seriously fantastic job with this project.
Neddy my man, I'm so proud of what you achieved and can't wait to see your next productions. I'm very excited for the aberration story line and I'm so grateful for all the videos you've done thus far. Cheers!
Can’t wait for Abberation, it’s my favorite map and I have no clue what most of the story is. Thanks for making all these story vids and I hope you continue even though you are very underated.
Very excited for the Aberration series! The series you've shown us thus far have been so entertaining both with commentary and visually. It really makes ARK feel more alive and epic!
Genuinely this is epic what you have done here. Iv legit binged all 8 episodes and craving more. Everything about it is on point. Can’t wait for Aberration episodes. Thanks

Hey neddy I cannot wait for this keep up the good work
Me too😊😊😊
I wasn’t able to watch the premiere so I’m watching it now!
Can’t wait for Rockwell with minigun-2… well if it’s in the bloopers at least!
I honestly don’t know what to say man you have amazing talent, the way you’ve brought these stories into video form is just absolutely stunning. I feel like you will turn the Abberation stories into an absolute masterpiece, amazing job Neddy I can’t thank you enough for this.
You are absolutely awesome, and much thanks to everyone participating in the creation of these, this is Ark lore delivered the right way.
Helena: I hope the old brit is well
Meanwhile Rockwell: Element good, Helena bad
Rockwell is secretly a ferox
@@Masterplanfoiler OMFG YOUR RIGHT
rockwell morbed to hard
@@Masterplanfoiler holy I never thought that both of them are elements addict
Helena has arrived! This is going to be EPIC 😀
Cheers!
Raasclark tame a trilobite
We are in good company for this premier boys
4th comment,huzzah!
“Your right kids it’s Raasclark”
It's so sad how Helena still had good faith in Rockwell while he basically wanted to get rid of her
Man that ending scene gave me chills! Really hits different when you get to actually hear and see the characters!
“I’ll have to continue this later. One of the members of the caravan just arrived, and is saying something about rocks being alive? Which is of course ridicu-”
I couldn’t stop laughing. I just picture Helena standing there having a bruh moment🤣😂

RIP raptorzilla, your death gave me the chance to survive.
5:25 for that exact moment BRUH
@@lichklng96 raptorzilla I salute you
You and the team have singlehandedly made every map feel so much more important and epic, and I would like to thank all of you for that.
cant describe how much im looking forward to the aberration survival stories
“Rockwell… what have you done….!?”
Good god that was a chilling thing to hear
Aberration is by far my favorite part of the series story and gameplay wise, I’m really hyped for it. Thank you Mr.Noodle
What an end teaser!!! These things are so damn good. I've watched the full Island series at least 3 times and now I can go back and start my 2nd watch through of SE. Thank you for this. Looking forward to what's next.
Can't wait for both characters, and the story! I've played ark for a while and so I'm exited to see the take on this story, the only problem is, extinction has no ascension/ending, so let's see what they come up with!
Extinction?
@@NeddyTheNoodle I think they meant scorched earth
@@NeddyTheNoodle Not sure if you were being sarcastic but, Extinction, the one after Aberration, before genesis. The Earth "Ark". Unless it isn't an actual part of the story, like "The Center"
There's....a whole cutscene? "The Arks are coming home?" Does that not strike a bell?
@@HustlinHugh Extinction is part of story what do you mean.
I like how serious this is. The stories are really amazing but imagine if the new generation was around..
Like.. Helena would notice a random person taming dodos then she asks something like
"Why are you taming such useless creatures?"
Then suddenly the dodo one shots a rex
lmao
I 1 time had a level..... Around 800 lvl all green dodo"balls" it was lvl 1 when i tamed it..... It died after 2 months by an alpha Rex.
F
@@johithestar414 What mods where you using? Cause thats impossible without some interference lol
Banger after banger, man. This was incredibly well done. And the Aberration teaser gave me chills.
Its just so rewarding to see you growing as a content creator Ned. Machinima is something that Ark creators are not doing enough of at all! You have truly earned yourself the spot at the top of that genre amongst Ark creators.(UpfromtheDepths is good aswell) ;)
Words can not express just how much I loooove this! Wildcard, you better NOT fuck up with the upcoming animated series.
THIS, is beautiful, and if that series disappoints us, I will always consider this to be THE series to watch the story. Hell, even if it doesn't disappoint, you, Neddy, and all who helped with this project are gods.
Thanks for the kind words :)
Interesting I never felt this excited to find one step closer even if there’s 99 more steps left wondering how Rockwell become…”that thing”
He was corrupted by the element and I think he turned himself into the monster to become the Ark’s overseer.
@@dr.cronic8267 That’s a VERY shortened version but yes
Thank you so much for giving me a hint about how he become that thing and also that last scene “Rock Well…What have you done?!”it was perfect well deserved wait.😊👍
oh my goodness!! I can't wait for this!! you guys have done an absolutely stunning job with all of these, I feel like i'm watching an actual tv show series!
Oh man, I can't wait for Aberration! This was amazing!
And that’s how your earn subs with great content, not scream begging for people to “smash” that sub button, with a high pitch voice, and spiky hair. Well done. Can’t wait to see more.
Thank you. It certainly takes longer, but the content itself is what I care far more about than the cliche allure of subscriptions and likes -- not that I don't appreciate them, as they dictate my pay to an extent. I just want to make cool stuff that I would watch, and that's all this is :)
These videos, the voice acting, the montages, it's all sooo on point! I think it deserves something more grand.

Glad to see we are digging deeper in to lore of the ARKs. And we're gonna deeper and deeper. Hope you ain't afraid of the dark :)
Nerd out reference?
You may take out all of the light, but we’re not afraid of the darkenss
I got the reference
Oh man I’ve got a good feeling that Rockwell’s story is going to pop off and get crazy
That was amazing! I did guess you’d pull the first parts of Rockwell’s transformation into the Lovecraftian horror he is now with the Corruption Skin of Extinction and the Corrupted Survivor Skin of Genesis Part 2, and Gen2 did give you much to work with.

22:45 the suspense here could kill a man
Go watch the ab stories premiering tomorrow
Really beautiful job - once again! This is almost like watching a TV series of the ARK Storyline!
Thank you so much!
The very end scene. I was like "ohhhhhh!!!!!!!"
I cannot wait for aberration! Definitely my favourite part of the lore. Keep it up Ned. These videos are incredible!
Next Time;
Helena: Rockwell, what have you done!?
Rockwell: *ROAR!!!!*
I absolutely ark and love reading the notes when I find them but these videos are on a whole new level
the ab teaser was so good! the story really goes up in ab, cant wait to see it!
Just watched the dossier video premiere and now I can’t wait for this
Woohohohohoho can’t wait for the aberration stories especially Rockwell’s full descent into madness which ends up with his mutation into the monster we see in aberration then Genesis
Another masterpiece put together by you and your team, Ned. And another Ark fully discovered. Thank you once again for making this series and putting so much time and effort into it.

I can't wait to see Ab's story brought to life :D Knowing the ark's story really ramps up from here has me excited for future videos !
Wonderful work! Great body acting by both the body actors and the voice work. Great sets and use of locations. Loved Radar!
It was so fulfilling to see a Scorched Earth ascension.
Can't wait for my favourite map's story!

I came here immediately after watching Helena's Island story. Another unbelievable amazingly done production. Incredibly well done! Thank you!

Words do not describe my excitement for AB notes. The SE ones were done so well...loved them all.
Well done as always! You have sincerely made another masterpiece. Thank you for bringing ark alive like nothing else.
My pleasure!
God I can not WAIT for aberration, my favorite DLC, favorite map, and favorite bit of the ark story.

This is so well Made!
Amaizing! Great job Ned.👍
