Rost Explained

[@jbblanc3468]

Thanks for doing this - I voiced this wonderful character (an honor in itself) and even I learned more about him! Great stuff - thanks!

[@ThePatientWolf]

So glad you got to see it! And thank you for giving such life to a crucial character in the story! I still hope Rost is not really dead. But every time I see that explosion…! 🙏

[@ogelpeace4610]

Thank you for voicing one of the best characters! Your voice has so much warmth and care

[@relientkgeek]

You were amazing as Rost! Seriously the bond you were able to form with the player in such a short overall time of the game is amazing. His story arch could’ve been cheesy/cliche but your voice acting really sold their relationship and provided a warm foundation in a wild and mysterious game world.

[@remrad4315]

This guy voiced Rost.. instant sub.

[@fro6513]

Amazing video! I loved that Rost despite his desires, respects Alloy and let's her develop into her own person and carve her own path. What a great father figure

[@ThePatientWolf]

Thank you very much!

[@mabeljackson]

Rost only appeared a short time and died early in the game. But the story and his character gets me. Watching your video makes me emotional and cry

[@ThePatientWolf]

He’ the man!

[@fullsendsurvival7804]

Idk why but I keep getting all choked up and emotional... like this is the father I want to be. I don't even have a child yet alone a girlfriend!

[@marenelinea]

Amazing video, I loved papa Rost, may he rest in peace. ❤️🌹

[@ThePatientWolf]

Thank you!

[@entertainmentgems5418]

I so wish they didnt't kill off Rost so their story could continue somehow in forbidden west because just watching your video had me crying and realize how much I miss Rost!

[@sirbamulous1336]

That was beautiful. I felt and related to a man I completely brushed off in my playthroughs. Fantastic job.

[@shipwreckjs673]

Ooo this was an unexpected surprise, coinciding nicely with the Horizon playthrough!

[@elijahclark6093]

The timing of this if perfect. I just started playing the game again.

[@ThePatientWolf]

Thank you!

[@katsaros1999]

Excellent Narration! I love these, Keep it up!

[@FogginNobbers]

This was a great video and a work of art. I know how much work goes into making videos like these so you should be proud of your efforts. Hence forth you shall be known as TheProudWolf

[@ThePatientWolf]

Thanks Greg!

Commenting for the algorithm gods

[@Aloyhero]

I hope they make comic or book or hell maybe tv show prequel based on that event of hunting down the 12 outlanders.

[@ozziey52]

Great video! But I could never get into this game.

[@jittiz1527]

Cool vid

[@jittiz1527]

wow you like my coment, thaks

[@jeffreymartinez306]

Who saved him. Will they let us know or make story about it

[@Communistgun]

I played this game and this documentary is such a good supplement to the game. His story needs a game or dlc on its own right

[@tombsofak]

Great video! Rost is such an interesting character. Sure there's some familiar aspects to his story but it all comes together in a way that doesn't feel too samey. Legit cried when he gave his life for her but it was all too fitting.

[@ThePatientWolf]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jaminschmitt]

Such an amazing game. However, after playing the sequel I feel that they’ve lost the plot, so to speak. As a character, Aloy’s disdain for foolish men is becoming increasingly off-putting. Also, in general, emasculated men, a Ted Faro that quite literally becomes an off screen monster, and 2 Dimensional villains that you barely see in the game leaves me to believe that the DEI disease has infected what could have a phenomenal trilogy. One can only hope that they tone those down in the 3rd game. It would also go a long way to give Aloy more vulnerabilities making her more relatable. Anyway, I too hope that Rost is alive. The one rule in story telling is that unless you see them die on screen (or see the body) then never assume they’re completely dead.

[@lexicon1742]

This is a great video! I loved your take on Rost's relationship with being an outcast of the Nora tribe. Keep doing what you do!

[@ThePatientWolf]

Thank you so much!

[@rev1l0oar]

Absolutely fantastic video, thoroughly enjoyed this. Rost is a fantastic character with such an interesting back story. Keep up the amazing work Wolf, I hope both you and your channels get all the success your hard work and dedication to these games deserves.

[@ThePatientWolf]

Thanks a ton!

[@remrad4315]

A couple thoughts came to mind when playing this game. One, I think odd Gratta was the brave that dragged Rost across the border. It would make a lot of sense honestly but maybe not due to her age, but a long time did pass so maybe. Also I sorta wish Alloy decided to use her prize as the victor at the proving to restore Rost as a member of the tribe. Sadly it wasn't to be, but what a genuinely wonderful character.

[@lightdarksoul2097]

Sadly while the winner can ask anything one thing of the elders, they have no obligation to grant it so I doubt they would allow Rost back even if they wanted to. He was seen as soulless.

[@ElijahMabanaMusic]

I remember binging all of your last of us 2 theory videos prerelease. I will gladly do the same for Horizon FW. Cheers.

[@lightdarksoul2097]

I love the detail that Aloy would never have been this headstrong or tough, would never end up being the hero she is without Rost. Her "sister" in forbidden west couldn't understand why Aloy was so different than her and Aloy mentions she had Rost.

[@jeffreymartinez306]

Will we find out who saved him. Is there a story there

[@Pacers00]

When rost blew up I cried fr Ngl

[@GaTaQ]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Great work.

[@datoysn3917]

What a wonderful recall on Rost. Thank you.

[@ThePatientWolf]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@gisakur15]

(Oh, I think my message was deleted) Recently found your videos about Horizon Zero Dawn, now you're one of my favorite channels. I love RSQ (Random side quest) channel as well. You both go deep into the story and even further, that's something I appreciate. Currently watching your playthrough of Horizon, can't wait for what you have to say of The Forbidden West, though I will have to catch up until I get a PS5. Do you think you will be uploading gameplay or streaming as soon as HFW goes out? Also would like to ask if you are on Instagram, as I don’t use Twitter at all.

[@ThePatientWolf]

Hi Gika. Thank you! I don't have Instagram unfortunately but I will be putting up some sort of gameplay shortly after feb 18. Getting close now!

[@gisakur15]

@@ThePatientWolf I’ll be waiting for it! BTW are you going to play AC Valhalla? The only AC I’ve played is Origins and I LOVE Bayek, apart from that game I don’t know much of the saga but I find the viking mythology very interesting.

[@ThePatientWolf]

I''ll eventually be playing Valahalla, most likely via stream at some point before I start the story video

[@d.oconnor4047]

What an incredible video! well done! subbed :)

[@bryangibson6211]

This channel is what I’ve been looking for forever. I’m so thankful, I don’t have words to describe it

[@ThePatientWolf]

Thanks Bryan!

[@bpmfj5422]

I really hope we see/learn more of Rost in the sequel. Perhaps a friend he made, or enemies. Excellent video man, love everything about it

[@ThePatientWolf]

Thank you!

[@dwolf4164]

[@black_mountain_death_squad]

HZD combat was awesome. I'm sorry, this might be an unpopular opinion, but the story was not good. It was boring and uninteresting. It also made no sense. The combat was fun, the game mechanics played well and Alloy was cool looking. The story was written by a middle school student. I didn't care about Rost or any of the characters. The narrative guided progression through the environment/world. That appeared to be its only purpose. It was not memorable. I hope they fix it. Sandbox games need to have good story to keep the player interested in playing.

[@veronicawhitehead7020]

Lol this is not the place to put that opinion
