Who is Dallas and what’s his story and how does he die if you don’t mind me asking?

Delsin in this game seems like a downgrade of Rhys from tales from the borderlands

Don't trust anyone. Not even yourself. Not even yourself's self.

Never liked the beast plot point. I always found the character of Kessler more interesting. Like a villain, but only because he wants you to become a better version of yourself. Would have been a better idea to not kill him off. Kessler could have been reimagined as this alternate timeline Cole, where his world went to shit, so he travelled to Coles timeline to put steps into place, to prevent the same thing happening there. Scrap the beast concept and instead have the world ending threat be an alternate timeline Evil Cole, who travels from timeline to timeline destroying them as some kind of revenge for his own timeline being destroyed. This would tie into the whole infamous theme, as went you chose good or bad karma, essentially creating two different timelines of events in each game.

The only thing wrong with the first 2 infamous games is that they have not been remastered yet. If they do remake or remaster them i would like the branching comic from 1 to 2 to be made into a game aswell then continue this series with cole they brought back kratos after a hiatus so why not cole?...sony if your not gonna use the i.p then give it to someone else to do somthing with it

Between this and SeeReax's Month of Mayhem, I almost want to try out a horror game that can be played with friends myself. Almost.

Personally, I don't hate the characters on a conceptual level (not even Eugene since despite his kind of stereotypical backstory, I do respect him actively trying to help out conduits albeit covertly), but the lack of screentime and overall formulaic nature of the plot ruins most of them outside of Augustine and just barely Reggie. More than half the plot plays out like this: you get a mission or two to track down a mysterious conduit who escaped and is enacting their own Justice --> you fight and gain their crap moveset with their own poorly done upgrades (sorry, I don't like Second Son's gameplay very much lol) --> you make a choice to "redeem" them to just do what they were already doing or "corrupt" them by having them hunt down xenophobes I guess --> you waste time collecting core relays cause the game really needed that --> then you do the moral mission. Then that character contributes next to nothing until the final mission of the game. Considering Delsin comes off as being a lost soul and troublemaker in the beginning while Fetch and Eugune right away are at least making a difference, I wish they didn't try to frame it as him changing them as much as them influencing him instead or in-between. Delsin and Fetch could have bonded over their experience with their siblings in a way that could have the former conflicted, considering his quest for new powers strains his own relationship with Reggie somewhat. Meanwhile, Eugene maybe could have pushed Delsin to approach missions with a degree of thought rather than going leeroy on everything. Delsin's moment to moment writing can be funny I guess, but I wish he had more moments to actually reflect or moments to challenge him as a character (like maybe Reggie leaving him briefly). Instead, he's just progresses to wanting to save "his people" (which kind of starts off as the akomish, but then the conduits are included) way too quickly on his own while the other characters get shallow non-arcs at best if you're good (Fetch learns that killing is bad and Eugene needs to touch grass more I guess).

I'm sorry I had to split this into two parts because it was so long. 0:22 What Camera? When did anyone ever say it was a camera? 0:31 The first two questions are completely moot since answering them would add nothing, but the third one was valid. 0:38 A red sky in this game also means Cole's Karma is evil, which hasn't happened yet because Cole's powers haven't fully developed. 0:45 What's the problem with that, especially when he could just be talking to himself? 1:09 Why not. 1:25 It is possible their helicopter is already filled with people. 1:47 Zeke only sees darkness and explosions, at first and while he can eventually see the lighting he is just putting two and two together and assuming it's the only people he knows that could be doing it, also this is an instinct reaction since how could he be putting together and using logic in his head when he's freaked out and only has a few seconds to react, and he doesn't know the capabilities of every terrorist organization. Also, I wouldn't assume my best friend is behind the explosion and can summon destruction out of his body because he doesn't know he has superpowers yet. 2:10 That's a sin how, especially since it isn't poorly used. 2:34 It's less that he considers them "good use" (since he never said it), and more that he's just doing what his best friend wants. Also, at this point, Cole doesn’t care about the city which you brought up in your video on him. 2:54 He did do it before because he said in his conversation with Trish (which you showed) that he's jumping off of "buildings" (plural), so this wasn't the only building he jumped off, and even if he didn't say that when did it ever say this was his first time jumping off a building? 3:28 That's a problem, how? 4:13 Because he's fat... and most people in 1st world countries don't starve, the explanation is that simple… but hey at least we all know that fat people always lie. If you know you know and I’ll give you a hint that’s a reference to my favorite game of all time and I've played it and its sequel for hundreds of hours each, try to guess what it is in the replies. 4:33 Again that's a sin how? 4:46 I feel like to fix that scene I'd make it so that both the voice of survival and the USTV news reporter say that Cole set off the Ray Sphere and make it so that every scene before the end of the "Anything For Trish" mission Trish's dialogue is different based on your karma (even though the difference start small at first and get bigger), showing that her feelings (outside of her knee-jerk reaction) are always influenced by your actions. How ever, I do feel like it should be brought up that if someone is caught up in the middle of an explosion they aren't usually the one who survives unless we take a mobile Simpsons game I played advice for how explosion works at face value, and although this might sound crazy I don't think it's the most reliable source for how explosions work. While I will use that fact to partially defend Trish's actions I do feel like it's fine if that was brought up. 5:04 Again that's a sin how? 5:13 They really can't do anything about that since Trish isn't going to go with it at this point. 5:24 The reason he considers doing the good and evil options is that while he can take them on, it's easier if he triggers a riot. 5:59 It's pretty obvious Cole would try to escape the city when the entire city turns against him, even though I do find it funny that she decided to be on the right side of the razor wall inside of the left side, I can only imagine what it would've been like if Cole went to the left side, and Moya would be close and yet so far. 6:26 As a swimming fan that cut deep. 8:03 Because you live in a state that produced one of the greatest sets of conspiracy theories (JFK's assassination), I think it should be clear how looney they can be. Speaking of which, aliens, Jackie Kennedy, Texas Oil Barons, LBJ, the CIA, Fidel Castro, the soviet union, and Magneto all killed JFK. 8:10 All I can say is that I don't mind these missions, and that applies to all of your sins for them. 8:32 To quote Jay Exci "This is a thing the movie (or game in this case) should not be taking time out to explain because taking time out to explain this would detract from the pacing and add nothing to the plot." 8:41 He's using the neuroelectric energy inside of people to heal them, that may sound silly but this game came up with the powers so it comes up with what they can do, including doing stuff that electricity can't do, and even if this wasn't the case I would say that the game doesn't need to follow real life since because it's fiction (and yes that even applies to stuff that even elementary school students should realize is dumb like all the science in Another Life which is still terrible even if you agree with me). TLDR: this is a fictional power using fictional electricity so I think suspension of disbelief can be applied here 8:56 Ah, we see eye-to-eye, even though it's different because I'm not a woman, but while I do hate women I also hate men too. 9:14 Two things (you could say that's two you owe me Junior), I don't have a problem with Christian Bale's Batman voice, in his movies, and I don't have a problem with Jason Cottle's voice in this game, and two keep this is mind because it'll be important later. 10:24 I'd say it's more of a structure problem than a pacing problem, and I do think this scene would've been better Zeke says it only if you have good karma (he'll tell you how people hate you even more if you have evil karma), and after the third sewer mission to foreshadowed the different cutscenes you get at the end of the train mission instead of at the second sewer mission which it's at right now. 10:35 They're desperate and thirsty enough to drink anything or it just got in their face without them drinking it. 10:44 How did Trish imply there's a contest between her and Moya? 10:55 The hospital probably sent medical personnel in an ambulance with equipment in it so they can easily treat what's going on at the fountain, instead of Trish having her ambulance. 11:18 A lot of people are getting sick because of the water so they have a finite amount of that spray. 11:37 Yes but that's in character for Sasha. 13:00 One that's a sin show, and two...okay I'll give you that was a nice one. 13:28 Kessler had about a century to harness his powers so of course he has powers that Cole never has. 13:27 Kessler can teleport. 13:31 Isn't that a sin with Infamous 2 and not this game? 13:51 Again that's a sin how? 14:15 If the government wanted to charge up the entire military they would solve the issue of world peace because there wouldn't be any humans left. 14:54 It can be both. 15:14 You've also been complaining about all the men. 15:30 Kessler's still in love with Trish. 16:34 You can not run into him during the quest and then neither of the posters will be hung up, I can only assume he decided to give it a rest after not being able to find Cole. 18:09 Again yes but it's in character for Zeke. 18:57 Cole didn't even imply that he didn't believe in Zeke's conspiracies AFTER this only before. 19:47 Remember my point about Jason Cottle sounding like Cristian Bale's Batman, well here's when it comes back. If they did what you recommend Kessler would be an antagonistic mentor like Ra's Al-Ghul from Batman Begins, and because around this time pretty much every superhero story tried to be like the Nolan Dark Knight trilogy, the fact that this game was partially inspired by the comic Batman: No Man's Land and Batman Begins, the fact that Cole's voice sounds like Cristina Bale's Batman and the fact that good karma Cole can give off Batman vibes with him doing things like arm restraining enemies instead of killing them it probably would've been best if they didn't have yet another similarity to Batman Begins. Speaking of which, I'M BATMAN!!!!!!!!!

Thank you random youtuber from 8 years ago for giving me a solution to a super niche problem i have. I wanted to make Infamous 1/2 a bit more interesting by essentially stretching out Cole's Hero Journey by essentially doing evil acts accept when the choice really matters. My little head canon is that Cole wasn't a good man, but ultimately he makes the right choice in the end (In infamous 1 that would be destroying the ray sphere and in 2 it would be using the RFI). It always bothered me that the game forces you down a karma path for its ending. So this will just kinda help me with my little head canon so thank you

The moral of the story is elementals are fickle :P

U always know how to make a good vid

Ah yes a free fantasia for BUYING the collectors edition 😂

:pepecheer~;

It would've been funny if you got disqualified if you pot too. But congrats on the clear

Problem is you don't need to level kimari to use stone breath and that's the only unique thing you need him for. It is cool to build a bulky caster that can self heal though

Games so boring now they made dragoon feel so bland. 1-2 positional per rotation zzzzz. No gauge worth keeping an eye on, mirage dive does nothing, don't have to upkeep blood of the dragon, this job used to be so good it makes me depressed to remember shadowbringers. What even was dawntrails msq good GOD

yipeee~

Dude I was trying to learn this when viper come out I couldn’t nothing … now damn

And they also added that weird thing in the latest expansion the also make positionals be at their strongest but it's a bit hard to notice in the middle of the action

I mean it's a non conical dlc so it dosent really stand out for me the post blast comic infamous 1 the six issue inturlude comic infamous 2 and your legacy of the beast fanfiction is cannon but i would perfer for infamous 3 to be a thing but all in all good vid

Stop bad mouthing cole like this

Ah yes, get a free fantasia when you buy a collector edition

I've played this game for years. I actually played it before I played the first, and after thinking about it, I really think the evil ending is much better than it's heroic counterpart. Partly because Nix isn't such a pushover like Kuo and the Beast, but also because it's so much more emotionally profound. At the end, even after choosing to side with the Beast and killing Zeke, the game shows how Cole really cared about him, by kneeling down in front of his body and looking at the ground in a respectful kind of way. It also let's people know that somewhere inside Cole is still a tiny bit of good, but it really just dies when he smashes the RFI. I also think this ending couldve made second son waaaaay better, and there was a lot of potential for it to build off of as well. The good side could have a story where Delsin powers up to try and take down Cole, and the evil side where delsin could side with cole to accomplish something else, or defeat him and take control over the conduits. Theres so much they couldve done with this and its kinda painful knowing that there probably wont be anything to come of it. Sry for the long rant. Just had a lot of time to think about this.😅

I actually didn't know the evil ending was supposed to be the canon one, that's really interesting and it might change how I interpret infamous 2

I felt like Fozzy Bear from the muppet movie when this first happened, "we picked up a weirdo...!"

In my personal opinion on how some Conduits survived: The RFI malfunction after Zeke hit it with Cole's Amp and after Zeke had "fixed" it: Let's just say that it has a limit in affecting some certain conduits. Another possibility is that Delsin, Augustine, Hank, Fetch and Eugene all had an evolved Conduit gene.

I've always thought that Cole's powers were energy based and not regular electricity.

I e been a fan since 2011 and I didn’t know about the post blast comic and the six issue interlude comic until I watched ur vids honestly if u didn’t get into the series I don’t think I would’ve ever found out about the comics but how I got into the franchise is a very sad story and the worst part the story didn’t happen to me it happened to my cousins the 29:54 man who got me into the series did something bad to my cousins I’m not going to tell u what it is but it was bad but I’m still glad to be a fan cause this franchise is better then marble and dc in my opinion thx zivaline for giving me the k oweldge of the comics u are awesome🥹

Thanks for this.

Random theory idea: Conduits survived because the RFI is light, so anyone underground or in windowless buildings wouldn't of touched the RFI beam, allowing them to survive. Also, window blinds would only reduce the likelihood of the conduit dying instead of preventing the RFI outright, giving a tiny bit of credence to the "Relitive Distance" theory, which while I don't like that, it just makes sense that windows are more dangerous against USA coudiuts then chinse conduits.

Zivalene pls come back

I don't believe cole is dead at the end of the second game because of the electro magnetism.

I use it after my opener when Rampart ends on huge trash pulls for added mitigation. Also good on boss fights where there are adds that can be slowed.

I tend to accidently press it when fighting trash mobs. it looks like I've been making a good mistake.

Squadron manuals and FC buffs are considered similar effects and you only get the 15% buff for battle manuals and priority aetherite costs so I don't see why spiritbond would be any different

Thank you I just rebeat infamous on my PS5 and am starting infamous 2 and I don't remember reading the comics or even knowing about them

Well i started in Uldah so ur guide doesn't work for me ig Kappa

True

Love the video

I think the best way they could go about explaining the survival of some conduits is to... not. Make it a mystery in-universe, too, with no one being able to explain what happened or why. Sure it might be a bit cheap, but it's better than giving an explanation that makes no sense at all, in my opinion. What do you think?

For me the post blast comic the first game the six issues that take place between infamous1-2 are the only true infamous cannon remember every single conduit across the globe died which means delsin should be dead

That means you haven't run into me im a dungeon as a tank reprisal+arms length is a great combo slow weak attacks :^)

Cool

7:31 Black ops?

I actually started my WOL in Gridania… (I’m a Miqo’te Bard…sitting at level 51…)

And wuk lamat is the opposite lol

It's so nice to see someone who likes her!!!

In my entire gameplay lifetime I've only been in 2-3 total vote to abandon situations. Only when I've had a group where half the group left and waited too long trying to fill.
