For the bits where he dodges lightning/radiation, as much as I love him, our boy isn't moving relativistically. He's simply getting out of the way before where it's aimed at passes over him or it's fired. It's a lot easier to dodge a bullet if you get out of the way of the barrel, same principle here.

[@SexyTechSupport]

@@CRISIS_COMICS He is already proven to be able to slow his perception of time and react at super human speeds. It's Occam's razer. Which is more probable. That he reacts to Kassler holding his hands out fowards towards him and just steps out of the way before he fires, or moves faster than light speed? If he moves faster than light speed, then he would be the flash. And light speed doesn't make sense considering his other feats. Kassler does seemingly move at light speed though.

if you look closely at kessler's "teleportaion" it is not true teleportaition. I think that he is transforming himself into electricity the same way delsin does when using the neon sprint and smoke dash

[@Hayden_Lummus]

Maybe. Or using electricity to use super speed to move from one place to the next, like how one of Delsin’s powers he gains is super speed, but Kessler, through time and training, could have learned to use electricity to move at super speed at a way faster rate that it appears he’s teleporting. It’s similar to how it looked like Naruto teleported but he was actually just moving so fast it appeared he had teleported

@brownwingedangel. Why didn't Kessler just make himself powerful enough to kill the beast in the new timeline? He probably could have ray sphered himself several times before killing the beast by himself.

@Nathan Montgomery. Probably but can conduits really suffer from old age like us? I imagined they stay young forever by draining whatever element they control or blast cores.

[@NoukonGlobal]

​@@zombiedemon1762 I think its because Kessler as a character isn't courageous. He isn't the type of guy to fight directly or try to take on problems himself. He doesn't deal with personal problems very well either. His abilities have a large focus on dodging, mind-effecting, short powerful blasts, etc. in comparison to Cole's. To the point he even time traveled to escape his problems. He seems to hold a lot of hatred for himself for failing to defeat the Beast and protect his family. Despite that, he doesn't think he has the strength of will or ability to win even when prepared. So instead of trying to fight the beast himself, he thought preparing his past self would be the better option. That way he doesn't have to face the consequences of failing again while simultaneously feeling like he did everything he could to stop the Beast. In short, he had a chance to run away again AND defeat the beast; so he took it.

Additionally, he survived a Ray Sphere blast and was stated to pose some sort of threat to The Beast - Large Mountain level-ish • Kuo: Weaker than both Endgame Cole and Nix, but still managed to harm the former somewhat alongside The Beast, and survived Nix’s suicide attack that severely injured The Beast, albeit barely - Large Mountain level-ish • Nix: Fought evenly with Endgame Evil Cole and severely damaged The Beast via suicide attack, and was even stated by Cole himself to be a “powerhouse” - Large Mountain level The Beast >/= Nix > Kuo =~ Bertrand > David Warner = Kessler > Alden Tate > Sasha

@@CRISIS_COMICS Ok, say for example Kessler charges up a blast and Cole manages to dodge it, the rhythm in the shots can easily be found, and he can then predict them. If someone points a gun at my head and I duck, it doesn't mean I'm faster than the bullet, it just means that I *predicted* the shot from the motion of the shooter. Also, a slowly turning beam of electricity does not count as "lightspeed". To be lightspeed, Cole would have to run the OPPOSITE way from a blast, and OUTRUN the attack.

@@CRISIS_COMICS Lightspeed REACTIONS... Ok, now that's more like it. I would say he MIGHT have lightspeed reactions, but most of the attacks are telegraphed before they are used, leading me to believe he just sees them coming by instinct, NOT actual sight. And by the way, if an attack is moving at the speed of light, then the light from the attack would reach his eyes just microseconds before it hits, leaving this a question of "Do his instincts guide him, or does he react at the highest POSSIBLE level".

[@Singular.shade101]

One thing i would’ve loved is if cole teamed up with cyborg raiden from the metal gear solid series. They both conduct lightning/electricity. Cole has his reaper mode and raiden has his ripper mode since raiden’s adoptive name is “jack” and plus he was a child soldier who fought in the Liberian civil war in 1989. And yes I’m aware of PlayStation all-stars and how they were both “enemies” or whatever, but ps all-stars isn’t even a canonical thing in my eyes.

So powerful enough to destroy Mercer and Heller in one hit with his powers, yet nowhere near powerful enough to stand against Raiden, Static Shock, Electro, and Thor.

[@darrylisaac9400]

@@oofer_gamer_life3080 nah thor has absorbtion resistance and he speed blitzes and one shots without his lightning so it doesn't matter.

[@KILLSWITCH14FP69]

You forgot to mention complete evil karma cole from infamous 1 with the use of the Black lightning from triggering a ray sphere twice to empower himself would probably easily put him at a level above the beast I hope that if they ever decide to remake infamous 1 that they would have the beast be a secret boss fight ending after getting nothing but evil karma specifically since he would be more than enough to defeat the beast

Canonically, at his peak Kessler Cole was universal+, after using virtually all of his power to travel 100+ years back in time he had enough power to CREATE A NEW FORM OF MATTER!

Festival of blood is just a story Zeke made up to impress a chick.

Yeah I played it and used footage from it in the video

[@thedude882]

@@CRISIS_COMICS You said it was non-canon, but that's not correct, it's just a story Zeke made up.

[@CRISIS_COMICS]

@@thedude882 So it didn't actually happen in the main Infamous timeline...so it's non canon.

[@Zarathustr]

@@thedude882 You contradicted your self. If it I just “a story zeke made up” how is it cannon?

[@thedude882]

@@Zarathustr Festival of blood consists of Zeke telling a story to a girl, and we playing through the story. Zeke telling the story is a canonical event. Thus it is canon that Zeke made up a story to impress a chick. Now the story is factually false, but it's not correct to describe as non-canonical since it is a meta-story, not a piece of writing expanding on the infamous universe.

_bolts of kinetic enegry, storing it for a stronger blast_ *wouldn't that be potential energy until it's released?*

[@Muzakr_Halfdan]

Yea and notice how when you would pick up a car that was already destroyed in infamous 2 depending on your karma rank the kinetic Explosion could be blue or orange

[@jaymon64anabel53]

It’s interesting on how Kessler is ashamed of Cole whenever he puts his life on line, making it sound like he wanted you to do the wrong thing to become stronger near the end of the first game. As I love the good karma endings to both games, it would’ve been nice to see how Infamous 3 would’ve turned out when Cole was the beast. And at the same time, kept that double power we got from the first bad karma ending- not saying you shouldn’t have lost your powers in the second, but the electric color you achieved after using the sphere a second time was much stronger, and darker. Like there was difference I mean.

[@kevdaman7371]

*please correct my math or me if it's wrong in any way* Augustine had 7 years worth of experience and Delsin overshadowed that 7 years / 4 blast cores = 1.75 years worth of experience for cole in infamous 2 it's, (for the sake of calculations each shard gives half a year's worth) (305 blast shards x 6 months ÷ 12) + (6 blast cores x 1.75) = 163 years worth of experience for infamous 1 & 2 it's (for the sake of calculations the beast drains 65% of cole's powers) ((350 blast shards x 6 months ÷ 12) ÷ 100 x 35) + 163 years = 224.25 years worth of experience cole is one of the most skilled user of electricity in fiction

[@OperationEndGame]

I miss this series.

[@bot_alex23]

if only infamous 1/2 were made in this time so the game could be that much more advance and have possibly way more powers

[@thenotoriousjoey9956]

They could always remake them just how they remade resident evil 2 and 3 and now 4 imagine the same game with today’s graphics and engines would be one of the best games of the year

[@michaelfigueiredo2741]

It would be amazing if they made a new infamous game and had electricity as a dlc power

[@ravenvalle5228]

I remember the first time I bought that game

[@shinningbeat1528]

We want infamous 2 remastered

[@aaqe92837]

We need an inFamous 3 where Cole Magrath's story continues alongside Zeke , Kuo , Nix. They can do it I'm sure they can.

[@oofer_gamer_life3080]

except kuo and nix would still be dead and only cole could have the possibility of being alive cause of the lightning bolt hitting his coffin at the end. but they already made it clear that cole will stay dead.

[@York22]

I wish this would happen but it’s very unlikely

[@sunflow57]

I love these games so much. They just fascinate me.

[@calvinpeters653]

this is what I wish game theory would do they don't worry about games like infamous,Devil may cry and soulcalibur so I love finding stuff like this.

[@QaDri93]

Kessler had time travel powers..who knows…maybe Cole time traveled on the boat after the lightning strike to a much distant future and we get to see him again in the next sequel..hopefully
