The Hunter Necromorph REGENERATING MUTATION Of Brant Harris Explained
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 лис 2024
- As the outbreak on Aegis VII kicked off, one man in particular seems of particular interest. Brant Harris was a miner who while on the planet would inadvertently create two nurses out of one nurses having given into his hallucinations and becoming violent. After doing so, he would be transported up to the USG Ishimura in an effort to keep him contained and study what happened to him as a Dr Mercer would come into contact with him. Being a unitologist himself, he would implant necromorph tissue into the brain of Brant creating an entire new class necromorph that to a normal person, they would have no idea of surviving. But how does the hunter achieve this? lets discuss that in todays episode!
Thank you for watching Roanoke Gaming and I hope you enjoy The Hunter Necromorph REGENERATING MUTATION Of Brant Harris Explained

Crazy to think some of us like myself found you YEAS AGO back when your dead space videos had music so loud you couldn't be heard over it lol.
You have come so far, and still basically hold the crow solo for this niche and the quality you provide.
Often imitated, never replicated.
🎉🎉🎉
I like the idea of the marker keeping slashers and other necromorphs away from Dr. Mercer doing his experiments being like"let him cook".
"Damn you're into some messed up stuff....I like it.
Finding the lore of Harris on your own is a really cool experience and an amazing buildup to the first encounter with The Hunter, it humanizes him and then shows you how his mind was slowly being altered
Excellent point. Well said.
@@Ethonra appreciate it! I love the additions in the remake that streamline the story and just make it even better. I love that they understood that the original was so good they couldn’t really outdo it so they focused heavily on creating more memorable characters that show the desperation aboard the ship. The original had the gameplay down pat, it just needed a little touch up on characters like Hammond and I love how they incorporate how Isaac sees Nicole when it’s really Dr. Cross, that was an actual shocking revelation that makes so much sense and really just streamlines everything that much better. In this version at least you aren’t seeing a fictitious hallucination of Nicole, you are seeing her likeness projected onto another human being and the same is happening for them, it’s a great way to show the markers mind warping abilities
@@Funkiotologist You're welcome. Agreed.
While I am getting sick of everything be remade and reimagined nowadays, at least I can competently say Dead Space DESERVED a remake (thanks EA, try not to murder this one in cold blood this time) and it totally scored.
@@Ethonra my one fear is that DS3 will be very similar to the original because they see that people love this remake, hopefully they make it more horror focused and understand how completely tonally different it is, and of course no micro transactions 👹 it would be so funny and ironic if that remake killed the series again 💀😭
@@Funkiotologist Funny and ironic is one way to put it. Lol
I am not too worried. Like you said, people loved the remake. If they are even 1/100th as intelligent as they think they are, they'll take note to do more of the same and stay away from what killed the franchise in the first place.
But, as always, time will tell.
The Hunter always terrified me in the original Dead Space…….I’m proud to admit the remake Hunter also terrifies me.
well when i learned the ship was basically open world kinda i was like "oh great now he has a full ship to explore" but he's limited in the game sadly
Eh. He looks so similar to the other monsters and the game is already super dark… plus the necromorphs didn’t freak me out as much as all the hallucinations, so I never found him all that scary.
Remake is garbage

No necromorph figures, especially those of remake hunter and the brute, so long as they're large
Issac: "You're done, Harris. He can't hurt you anymore."
Roanoke: "Lets discuss that for a moment."
The hunter and other necromophs never attack Mercer until he finally fails them.
The Hunter is seen literally standing next to Mercer and taking orders from him after he kills Jacob.
The marker probably knew Mercer was valuable until he wasn't and said okay time to join the pack
@@fumothfan9 "last step, all the makers need to be absorbed", the markers always "prepare" convergence by fueling splinter groups and cults around them before showing their true intentions, sometimes centuries later when they have softened the defenses of intelligent species enough for a convergence when a necro break out inevitably happens and the brethren moons swoop in and feast on whats left after a convergence. If DS3 is to go by, it seems they let the most populated planet of a civilisation undergo convergence so a new moon is born to extend their network while the other mainly feast on the colonies. In the end they send out markers to a lot of planets that are on the verge of having life forming on them, so it can guide them in a specific way & accelerate their evolution, they are almost like farmers and the memories & knowledge of the consumed species allows them access to all the knowledge about life supporting planets that species has discovered until being absorbed, so they know where to send their markers & feast can start again in a few dozen millenia...
@@fumothfan9kinda wish mercer was killed, and eventually, transformed into a necromorph
The concept of a necromorph actually retaining some if not all of its humanity is more unnerving to me than a mindless murder animal. You'd have a similar thing to captain Farris from C protocol.
What? Does he still have his personality and intelligence left?
@@owenjones7522
They're supposed to be dead.
Like zombies.
Body is just used as a murder machine.
Or Private Jenkins from Halo with his flood infection
@@owenjones7522 Yeah. Farris doesn't lose his mind after being infected by the parasite in C. Protocol. Instead, he becomes stronger and more aggressive, and he still thinks Jacob is the reason why everything went to shit in Black Iron.
@@owenjones7522 yes, not just him but all necromorphs, its whats the true horror is. If you get morphed after death, your consciousness is enclosed in your meatsuit without being able to control it, if a convergence is succesfull your essence gets absorbed into the brethren moons network so they can dissect all your memories for new hunting grounds and ways of manipulating others, everything that makes you is being "digested" forever at that point & your biomass is being repurpoused as needed infinitly. DS3 goes a bit deeper into it towards the end.
There is truly no rest in peace if you are within the range of a marker when you die and its as close to hell as an intelligent being can get, funny enough the unitologists were right, you will be all whole as a species...in eternal torment. DS2 gives a glimpse when Isaac is in the unitologists crypt where they freeze all of the corpses for convergence and you see them writhing in pain and screaming for a second when the markers shows you whats actually behind the courtains, terrifying.
Judging by the thumbnails title, I'd say Roanoke has strong feelings about this necromorph
Honestly, I'd like to know why he's calling the Hunter 'this regenerating clown', lol.
@@kytrensol9777 Very mixed signals, seeing as he also calls it a chad.
@@the_furry_inside_your_walls639 a what?
Sleep deprivation is no joke. When I was in the Marines, I maxed out at 96 hours awake before I finally had to sleep as I was hallucinating.
Do you remember how it felt? The longest I went was 3 days but then I slept for 3 days.
@serlistogiette4168 It was very strange. Like feeling underwater and slow. Fuzzy feeling. Hard to describe... I slept for 3 days straight afterwards and freaked out my mother at the time. I guess the best way to describe it would be like being extremely high and drunk simultaneously just without the dizziness.
Dude same. Army mechanized infantry and we had a week of just pissing rain and nonstop no sleep training and the whole platoon was sleep deprived. Did a forced March through almost knee high mud for god knows how many miles and we slept for 4 hours when we made it back to our Vics. Those 4 hours felt like 10 at home. I’ll never forget the hallucinations.
Insomnia seems like a great way to get the whole psychotic break ball rolling. Your brain needs sleep to recover and process information.
Remove it and the marker hallucinations are just the icing on the cake
I love how this time, Harris is being tortured while Roanoke is going "Lets start with the feet"
10:16 That was always the scariest part about the regenerator to me. His behaviour and growls seem much more aware, than those of any other necromorph
5:43 So glad someone acknowledged the marker signal is stored in the bal - I mean frontal lobe
There's an area in Dead Space 3 where you are trapped with two or three of them at a time. That was intense. Then a turret section came along and you were destroying literally dozens of them, which was a nice sendoff to their presence in the series, if a little over-the-top.
What about that side mission where you get like 4 in a room and they all chase you.
@@Phillycheese28 I don't remember that but I do remember having to hack a console with two of them in the room.
Theres 2 i remember
1 was to get the ship fixed and you blasted them into the engines with the turrets
2 was the alien ruins at the start you'll have to fight off 1-2
@@fumothfan9 The first time you encounter one in DS3 is when you have to clear the jam in the cargo feed with that nifty little matching-puzzle; it's in one of the transport crates that you bring onto the ship and busts out of a vent soon after, then proceeds to chase you all the way back to the tram. You have to hold out until the elevator arrives.
I didn't like the way DS3 handled the regenerators. They were introduced too early, and the high amount of them cheapened their menace. In the previous 2 games there was 1 per game and they were terrifying, terminator esque stalking boss monsters, where as in the 3rd, they were just another enemy type.
Moreover, in the sequence where Isaac retrieves the escape ship and it starts firing it's engines, you can stasis a hunter in the path of the engine firing on a catwalk but the engine has no effect on the hunters, not even blowing it's limbs off. This is really dumb because of you played DS1 and got to this point in the game, the hunters had been chasing you for a chapter and a half and this seems like how you are supposed to kill them, mirroring the first game, but no, nothing.
Instead you shoot them with a turret and blow them into space.
I'm reminded of the last of the Mercer-Harris extra audiologs in the game in how much of his, its, mental faculty is still there though losing ground. "And how do you feel now?" "Dead. Awake. Whole." Even before that in the early parts of that final extra audiolog Harris questions to Mercer if he tries to kill him, almost like he doesn't want to though the Marker ripping the threads of his humanity out. It may give some sense in the latter parts of the game where the Hunter doesn't seem to actively want to do any harm to Mercer but only Isaac in each encounter that Mercer is locally around or nearby.
personally, my theory is that the hunter actually is a natural form a rare individual can become, rather than anything Mercer did to make it. See, my theory goes as this: Harris was an Architect, someone who, once getting the needle through the eye, like Isaac and Stross, could see and interpret the things the Marker had uploaded to his brain and build another. I think Hunters are the step before Ubermorph. At some point, the ubermorphs regeneration has to come into play, and i can't think of any other point in which it starts besides the stage Harris got to. We just don't see an Uber because there's already a Hivemind nearby. Whereas, on the Sprawl, there wasn't one yet, and following your theory on Ubermorphs being a step towards a hivemind, with them seemingly having the ability to command other necros, the 5 glowing bulbs on their heads in the same place as a hivemind. And let us not forget the regenerators in dead space 3 that have the exact same physiology as the Hunter, with clearly defined marker symbols carved into their flesh. So my thoughts are that the cycle goes Architect, hunter/regenerator, fuses with another slasher that has bulbous growths just beginning to form, becomes ubermorph, after that it takes the gathered biomass and becomes a hivemind.
Man these Necromorph videos have an ironically calming effect; like one can sit there and listen the brutal alien mutations narration for hours literally.
By the way got some interesting games and movies. First one is the underrated rock-vampires from the Boys from county Hell, the other one is the Cronos ( odd movie ). The game would be the weird mutant alien dinosaurs from the Dino Crisis 3. A game that is to say weird at best!
I had forgotten about the Dino Crisis series. It was one of my favorite series.
Altman be praised🙅
amen @@DerDrecksack87
This man drops a dead space video right before I'm about to watch something else.
Exactly bro. Outta nowhere interrupting my doom scrolling
😏
Redo of healer 💀
@ArklusDryxal nah, you're done go ahead and log out for me.
The Hunter's regeneration has to be also fueled directly by the marker in some way and not just directed by the marker. It seems to be creating mass somehow to regrow the body parts and doesn't look to be getting that mass from its surroundings. From memory the marker was hoped to be an unlimited fuel source and so maybe the marker is fueling this regeneration.
That necromorph at 16:49 just walkin past like “I didn’t see anything”
There's actually a 1991 movie called Dead Space if you didn't know, and unlike the game the creature in the movie was actually bioengineered in a experiment gone wrong, I don't think many people have heard of this movie
I have an hour drive to college, and I gotta say, your videos make the drive pleasant.
Happy to help brother 😎
Sweet! I was wondering when this would come out. I've waited for a while to mention this but I think an idea for a video that alot of people would love would be a video on the tyranids from warhammer 40K. Their kinda like halos flood but have more to do with evolution.
Thanks for the idea!
@@RoanokeGamingbro DO IT! The Tyranids are AMAZING from a biological standpoint!
You mean terrifying hell even the quote on quote fodder ripper swarms are quoted in books as eating through steel and concrete in seconds flat like nightmare psychic bugs
@@RoanokeGamingso where is that hell knight vs halo elite video? I'd love to see who'd win in a fight. Like that brute vs brute vid.
Edit: I do not mean to sound this angry.
I think he would love that. Plus! Miniatures could work as great examination for videos. Analysing every single detail of it. Bonus points if you plan on painting it.
"This would indicate the Marker signal is stored in the ba-" is my favorite moment in the video. Never change Roanoke, never change.
Imagine if we somehow got a necromorph that actually talks while still being an absolute unit like the hunter or ubermorph, now that would be scary
Speaking lovingly or taunting their prey?
@@lucascoval828 maybe it could resist the marker's influence and end up in a platonic relationship with isaac?
I'll go see myself out now...
@kytrensol9777
It's a good thing that the Necromorphs are too repulsive to do Rule 34 art of.
@@lucascoval828 what if we just did silly art of them? Like, maybe a 'day in the life of a Necromorph on the Ishimura before it was found' or like a little pic where those in hiding are discussing what they want to do with Isaac when they catch him.
@@kytrensol9777
Wholesome.
Can we just talk about how bad ass Trevor Gurecki's take on The Hunter theme is? "The Dead Survives" gives off that feel of no hope in escaping the damn Hunter no matter where you go in the USG Ishimura. It's such banger and gives me the chills 😂👌
Isn't it a general combat theme for most necromorph encounters in the game?
I noticed it immediately and it made the whole ordeal worse for me lmao, it's a terrifying ost
The amount of BS Mercer and Benjamin did ticks me off so bad. Like when I ended Benjamin, i stopped that old pig into oblivion.
Also its HORRIFYING that the Hunter begins sharpening its blades if you block its path.
I love how non threatening this thing becomes after the initial panic, love the concept and wish he had sorta grown in strength the more he took dps or something.
Im not sure if youve covered it, but a super interesting thing iv been fascinated by since well Bleach the anime did it and dead space did something similar with death in stasis, the idea of slowing down biology to the point were dying takes an feels like an eternity, it sounds horrific and i can imagine the nerves being slowed the signal comes through slower meaning you feel the slow ramp up of pain slower but stay at the peak of it for longer? Would love a theoretical brake down of something like death in stasis as its terrifyingly fascinating.
As i know its possible to die so fast you cant even see or feel fast enough to register you died, so the opposite is bizarre to think of!
It very much is possible to die so quickly you don't even register it. Think about to the Titan sub and how it's believed to have imploded on everyone inside. That's a death so quick you won't even see it coming, much less feel it.
"the marker signal is stored in the ba-
In the frontal loan" mate you always do good. Makes us laugh. Great vid as always
The unnecessary flashbang at 5:06. 😂😂😂
I still think that the hunter should have run out of biomass from which to regenerate its limbs after at least 5 encounters.
Actually the remake retconned the procedure from the direct implantation of Corruption tissue to the careful injection of a refined serum.
Have you thought about doing a video on The Mist? It would be cool to look at the creatures specifically.
Makes me wonder if with enough time you could reverse engineer some necro tissue and end up making lower level super soldiers with similar powers to Alex Mercer from Prototype, could be an interesting fight fire with fire solution to the necromorphs if people got desperate enough to try.
Not a bad plot-line for a sequel. Or sidestory.
Gotta love when Roanoke drops a video just as I'm about to start my workout
What's very interesting is that because of Michael Altman the Convergence was delayed allowing humanity to grow beyond earth. This gives humanity a chance of survival while also giving the brother moons more to consume.
I find it slightly concerning how the Hunter waits in the room with Mercer for him to finish talking. Choosing whether or not to attack.
During Harris's final moments as a human, he questions wanting to kill Mercer, like as if he doesn't want to do it. It could be that after the full transformation, he still retains enough humanity to not want to harm Mercer, no matter how much the thought crosses his mind.
@RoanokeGaming I've been dying to tell you something about the brute if you ever make a video on it. Maybe you didn't catch it in your playthrough anyways The shoulder joints on the brute if you sever them and look carefully are actually the skulls of victims that became one monster just thought it was a cool detail
I've never actually played a Dead Space game but your videos on the Dead Space necromorphs were what brought me to your channel in the first place and now I get to watch the videos on the updated Dead Space remake.
What a time to be alive.
Deadspace: did I mention you could skin a Necromorph?
Roanoke: COOL, time to make a Hunter skin rug!
Everyone else: 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Roanoke: Team humanity! Awww yeah!
I adore your vids, I dreamt of being a biologist as a kid but going to college was hopeless. Seeing someone use their biology knowledge to break down some of me favorite monsters is a gift
I can only wonder what a Dead Space 2 remake would do with the Ubermorph.
Yo that "but" 5:07 turned into Omni mans butt really surprised me 😂😂😂
What happens if you get affected with the bacteria but you are nowhere near a marker?
Depends on how much is in you and how far you are from the marker
If you are outside of a markers influence zone than there is no bacteria, everything turns into a bio soup. The bacteria or virus is just a quick way to turn somebody into a necro as the infector does it to corpses, but a marker doesnt need it, it can do it trough its signal waves that alter DNA & cells trough different frequencies, this can be seen in DS3 when it resurrects all killed by the unitologists at once as a necro once the marker is set free of containment. The only reason it does not always do that and goes the slow & sneaky way like in DS 1&2 is because the risk of people actually recognizing it as the source of the necro outbreak is very high and it could be destroyed before reaching its goals.
@@DerDrecksack87 Dead Space 2 also touches on this cause when you enter the Ishimura in Chapter 10 you can find an audio log of a researcher who noted that the material found on the Ishimura was human DNA and she hypothesized that it gets reanimated in the presence of a marker and it falls apart when the Marker is gone.
The Necromorph just casually walking by, while the hunter is on fire 😂 do do do going for a walk do do
Hi Roanoke, nice vid as always, staying in the theme of the dead space will you continue doing the biology vids about the biophage infected from The Callisto Protocol?
So I just realized Faculty is free on UA-cam right now, and I think it's right up your alley on topics. Horror film from the early 2000's, invasion by alien parasites taking over a high-school. I think you'd love it and a breakdown of their biology would be awesome to see, since there's some dense info about them in the movie itself.
Really sucks that they got rid of the detail in the dead space remake where the hunter slowly disintegrates as he burns away. In the remake he just burns and then falls over while in the original it was like gohan killing perfect cell where he burns all the way to nothing.
You should check out the monster's in the witcher series or the witcher mutations. That would be pretty cool
Boring
Please no
Hi Roanoke you were talking about Dementia in this video and I was wondering if you could make a short explaining the difference between Dementia and Amnesia. Is it that the only similarity being forgetting memories or is it something bigger as the neurons decompose in Dementia and then have a separate issue in Amnesia? If you can explain, thank you ❤🙏
I've always wondered: Regenerating those limbs must require a fuel/food source. Where does the Hunter find the mass to regenerate its limbs endlessly?
I have some Theories
1. Plant cells and solar power or star power from the ship or stars. I.e. any power source
2. Cancer cells probably with human growth hormone.
3. Off screen hunter eats and stores vast amounts of stem cells in its rib cage. Hence the wonky movement of the legs it doesn't focus too much making them armored since it knows it'll get cut off and regenerate them.
4. There are bits of bacteria from the surrounding areas. The marker attracts them like a magnet.
5. It recycles its own destroyed cells hence you can never really use its blades or torso. They're magnetic like and join back together at some point.
Overall i go with the plant cells and recycle its own cells since literal FIRE kills it at high temperatures. Basically incinerating every cell in the body that not even one can recycle the ashes.v
@@fumothfan9for your fifth I understand you were just lacking a better word for magnetic but
I think it could include
The hunter can feel it’s limbs through a magnetic field all it’s tissue gives off
I think the hunter in the original was perfectly fine from a gameplay point of view. It is a miniboss that you have to slow down and escape from several times. These moments in the game are intense.
The remake goes further with several side characters and gives you way more information about them and what they did. For me, that enhanced the whole experience of the game even more.
I've always been curious, how much energy would it take for practically explosive rapid regeneration of limbs? Is it even physically possible for cells to divide that fast and regenerate at that rate without also self immolating themselves due to the excess heat they would generate in the process?
Making me want to get a new console so I can play this series again.
You should!
I mean watching these series made me keep an eye out for a sale on it after i got my PS5. And now loaded up my PS3 so I could play Dead Space 2.
I like how you weave video games/movies/, actual science, and memes into creative and interesting videos. The LA Knight reference got a laugh out of me.
5:08 Bro just flashed us all with thicc Omni man.....
Quick question. Would the Hunter (Brant) be able to turn into a Hive Mind like the Ubermorph and Tau Volantis Hunters in DS2 and DS3?
I'm just curious
Maybe, maybe not. At the end of the day, the Hivemind is just a collection of lots of corpses in the shape of a huge monster, with the name coming from some people naming it, realistically it might not have anything at all to do with a telepathic Necromorph hivemind. For all we know the Creep growing over everything could also relay those signals. But given the end goal is always to gather enough mass for Convergence, I don't think a small mining colony and ship would be enough for that, I think had Issac not kicked ass after running out of bubblegum and engineering tasks, the ship would have probably floated until it hits a populated station or planet, then crashed to start infecting that, if not just sat around passively farming anyone who got curious and investigated. That is also not mentioning that the Valor was gonna reduce the Ishimura to glitter with a nuke. (Ejecting the pod with Chen in it actually fucked them over, so Hammond is pretty much responsible for getting all of those soldiers killed)
@ericlamb4501 Ah, ok, that makes more sense. So the variation we see of the Hunters just correspond to how much of the marker signal they are receiving. DS1 already had a Hive Mind, DS2 was getting ready for a convergence, so it needed a leader, and DS3 there just wasn't a strong enough signal
@@jacarious_123 DS3 had *tons* of massive, Hivemind looking creatures actually, all of them were frozen in the background save for the one you go into and the one that breaks free and you fight (don't remember if they're the same one) Might just be, the bigger a Necromorph creature gets, the more it can influence the other Necromorphs around it.
@@ericlamb4501 Huh, that makes sense. I didn't even think about that one tbh. Thank you 👍🏽
@@ericlamb4501 in DS1 we have the Leviathan on the ship (early form of hivemind lacking mass) and the one on the planet that most likely is the one formed from all the scientists & military personell that experimented with the marker 200 years before the Ishimura arrived, it probably was the only necromorph as it absorbed all slashers & co to sustain mass and to "wait it out", since it was a dead planet it did not need small necros running around looking for prey (no old necros popping up like in DS3 supports that) and when the colony was established the marker went the sneaky way of causing dementia until chaos broke out and only then it unleashed the hive mind to quickly overcome them.
In DS2 there might have been one that we don't encounter as the station is significantly bigger than the Ishimura, but the marker built by Isaac & Earthgov was also much bigger and had taken the more direct route of just starting outright reanimating the dead and going for it. I dont know if there was enough biomass for a full convergence though, i think it wanted to create a mini moon that is able to call in the brethren moons trough their telepathic network.
DS3 is very interesting because it seems that Tau Volantis had a LOT of aquatic life forms as it was almost completely covered by water and the aliens were really big (as many aquatic creatures are as the water supports their large mass). I think thatswhy a lot of the huge frozen hiveminds were formed as they had to fight much larger creatures, the alien necros we fight are basically infants or younglings that could hide in parts of the city that didnt froze. The crab necro we fight mid game is basically an animal (the logs refer to it as a crustacian) not one of native aliens. We have a Leviathan on the ship that seems to be kinda small & only within the engine deck. The marker signal in DS3 is very strong, as the aliens constructed hundreds if not thousands to use them for energy before realising what would happen (the markers were sneaky again & let them do it before starting their bs), plus you have an almost complete brethren moon in orbit that tries to convince everybody it can to turn off the alien device that froze it because it knows its in a voulnerable state where anybody chosing the option to let it crash in the planet could kill it. I think it didnt really need more bio mass, thatswhy it didnt form one out of the failed SCAF expedition, instead it let them roam the planet as necros because it knew that sooner or later more people will come and it can use them to push the new arrivals to the machine & manipulating them into turning it off, wich did happen in the end.
Playing the remake on pc was a nice experience, playing it high was a scary experience
To me the hunter was terrifying than the ubermorphs in Dead Space 2 and 3 the design just looks horrific
Hey, Roanoke. Love your content, dude.
I'm just starting on my academic journey towards a degree in biology (haven't decided what specific field yet) and in my General Biology 1 class, my professor happens to also be a microbiologist. He kicked off the semester by starting with atoms and we're working our way up through the various atomic bonds, the formation of molecules, the formation of foundational macromolecules, etc. Obviously I need to study what specifically HE teaches and wants me to learn, but since you're also a microbiologist, is there any critical information you think would help or any tricks to help remember the literal dictionary's worth of vocabulary?
Me: See Roanoke Videos
Me: Ohh awesome
Me: Sees uploaded 1 minute ago
Me: POG
Excuse me sir, do you mind reiterating WHERE the marker signal is stored? I didn't quite catch that
So he's alive? technically he just did a pokemon evolve and achieved his final form.
Imagine a second humanity turning on a UA-cam server after MAD and finding this video, thinking it to be a documentary.
IM READY FOR FEET!
The dead space analysis are my favorites.
So Roanoke...how many episodes are you in on the strain?
So does this mean to defeat the hunter you just need to rip out its spine?
Were it so easy tho
On one of my playthroughs, a door opened for me to move through and the Hunter was just standing there. Just totally glitched out, not attacking, but standing there staring at me. I could shoot him, walk up to him, etc and nothing. It was pretty cool, except I needed to get past him to proceed. Took me awhile to get my character past him, and ngl it was pretty creepy walking straight up to this monster, but it was also pretty cool to get such a close look at him.
It really is a shame that the 'Knockout' perk took this terror and turned it into the reactive punchingbag I spent way too much time beating into the ground.
So fun though.
are you a doctor? incredible deep dive into the hunter. blown away with this vid. hats off to you sir!
I never knew it sharpened its blades instead of finding another way, very intimidating and fitting of the regenerating necromorph.
Here i am watching you explaining about the Hunter, yet i paid more attention to the damage degradation on the Hunter when using stasis
I love as the thruster is burning the hunter away that other necromorph walks by like "well I'm just gonna leave. You seem to have your hands full. Have a nice day."
It's 2018 all over again, I just need to lay relaxed on the couch after highschool instead of listening this while dealing with error screens at work
The cuts on this video are great.
" This would indicate the marker plans are stored in the bal... (Hard cut) in the frontal lobe..." 😂
I’m convinced Isaac Clarke is just Roanoke in gaming form.
5:45 no need to cut, it’s the truth
10:13 that is just hilarious the way hes making eye contact while doing it like"Wait until i get my claws on you"😂😂
You know, it always kinda takes me out of the moment when Isaac can literally one-punch-man the regenerator and absolutely FLATTEN it.
Seriously, I instantly forget I’m supposed to be afraid of this thing.
That Derrick Lewis frame had me laughing my ass off 🤣
The good old days are back with Roanoke making dead space videos
Heathen units... love it! Keep slaying it!
I love how the other necromorph just walked by like nothing happened.
I was watching and at 4:22 I felt like papa Roanoke was speaking to me directly as I studied psychology at college, felt like the marker was talking to me except its Ol' Roanoke, expected to hear "Starting with the feet"
“DEAD,AWAKE,WHOLE.” That line was disturbing.
The angry ape theory fell out of favor decades ago! And you know who also collects body parts? Everyone who keeps their relatives in an urn in their homes! Its hubris to believe the only reason an ape would keep skulls of relatives is violence and not remembrance. Jane Goodall documented in the 90s a chimp that stopped eating as a young adult following the death of his mother, who he was extremely close to, and who died subsequently a month later from pneumonia brought on by the damage to his immune system due to the stress grief causes us intelligent but anxious apes
5:41 I think the brethren moons learned from mercer and made more regenerators
Regeneraters had me shook first time I played as a teen.
But the hunter was the most frightening. It wasn't some mindless beast like the others it was after you specifically. That what was most scary
Thank god he wasn't stalking you through the ship like Mr X and was actually scripted
I’m rewatching this and at 5:08 that omniman got me off guard I must have missed it the first time around😂😂
Literally while I’m playing deadspace
Perfect timing!
@@RoanokeGaming would you believe if I said I got the notification as Harris broke out of his containment?
So close to a million cant wait to see ya reach the milestone :) now back to the video starting with the feet...
I did not expect the LA Knight cutaway 😂 4:31
Just rewatched your entire dead space playlist again, just in time!
I always love to imagine whenever the parts showing off the anatomical alterations come up, that it’s an alternate timeline where Isaac became a biologist, and instead of hallucinating, the marker just loosened his inhibitions to the point where he just sits there talking to himself, bullying some poor monster with stasis and a plasma cutter for hours on end to make these videos. Good times.
Though I would point out some things, like the lack of skin being a product of muscular hypertrophy tearing through it and it not regenerating zinc the flesh underneath has no need for protection any more. And for the claws on the feet they seem to be there for stability. Extending kind of like the legs on certain bipod stands, with the fusing of his arms to his chest helping to further centralize his, well, center of gravity, all to help mitigate his lumbering hull and offset the imbalances caused by swinging those ginormous scythes around. I also suspect the thing hanging from where his missing jaw should be are remnants of his missing (now sliced to ribbons) tongue (almost like a tongue in cheek joke by the hive mind/brother moons that he won’t be talking anymore) and the tendons:muscles that would have held his jaw in place.
Also Mercer being a manipulative “doctor” who uses that as a means to indulge their own innate malicious intent seems like it might be a parallel with the infamous,… Mengle? Mengelev? Whatever the fuck that animal’s name was. What with the whole, seemingly random focus on just pulling people apart piece by piece for asinine experiments.
I think the marker allowed the hunter to be developed because it was curious. It might have even been considering the hunter as a more common addition to the assault team. If the experiment panned out without fail.
Like the hunter said "I am awake and dead. I am whole." Meaning the idea of a sentient necromorph was something the creature was particularly interesting in for a moment. Ironically that doctor potentially could have made the unitological belief an actual strategy that the moons would possibly have used.
Imagine being a necromorph and Roanoke is in the game this man pokes and prods you
For some reason youtube hasn’t been updating me for you posting. The good news is, now I have 7 months worth of videos to binge!
In terms of lovercraftian horror i would say necromorphs still remain as one of the greateast vedio game villian s of all time.
Hey Roanoke love to Dead Space videos but could you possibly do the plague of beasts from bloodborne after you're done with dead space.
