Who Are The Gatekeepers? Abiotic Factor Lore

[@grizzofeu653]

I don't even see a Gatekeeper, I see a Spacemarine

[@vimmier]

hope you make more videos on abiotic factor, maybe the Halloween update (in my theory) will probably go more into the sisters of the unlost, since they seem the most mysterious

[@literatemax]

I didn't know the hat lady was a gatekeeper until I read it in the quest journal. Strange that nothing in the actual game indicates her status besides our player character just sort of "knowing"

[@XArctracerX]

Its what leads us to believe the implication that every GATE Scientist or Worker, knows what a gatekeeper is/looks like even if that isn't said out loud for us, given that the only reason our scientist could know is because well when working at the springer facility they would've seen someone who looked like the sister or is able to simply infer that they would be a gatekeeper.

[@ChronoMoth]

well through dialog with other npcs we know gatekeepers are some kind of security force but arent actually GATE security staff. Of course if you knew anything about the SCP foundation you could also infer that gatekeepers are effectively the MTF which they very much are so seeing a friendly face that speaks in tongues with the most conspicuous outfit known to man with an equally cryptic name you could put two and two together

[@literatemax]

@@ChronoMoth I see what you mean, but she could easily be an IS herself. Knowing where we will end up and waiting there for us despite there being no way in...

[@Ronesby]

Good stuff! Only ever skimmed the emails and stuff so I was under the assumption that those big dudes were from the order

[@Hairless_car]

2:48 man that guy reminds me of the Space Marine in WarHammer 40k

[@alexandreutiyama547]

I really want the gatekeepers in the game (winter update i think). Those mystic supernatural agents interacting with a goofy ass employee with weaponized office supplies.

[@XArctracerX]

They are coming in Dark Energy the next major update, which is also the update where we go into reactors finally so that'll be a really fun update.

[@Tom-mj3cc]

Nice video

[@Tousten]

I believe that there is another dead gatekeeper in the night realm. His goat helmet can be seen right next to the well of ink, as well as in the roadmap of patch notes.

[@Nechted]

This is just confirmation of what happened to the Gatekeepers who were sent into the realm, would've liked to include it in the video but didn't know of it when recording footage.

[@Tousten]

@@NechtedSo definitely confirmed, skulls are identical. Now I’m wondering if there is a whole model underneath…

[@XArctracerX]

@@Tousten POV: You just clip througj the ground and theres a whole ass corpse there

[@hiddendesire3076]

Actually judging by that image and the Pre-Release model of the Sister of the Unlost, the Skull mask belonged to a different Sister or one of the Brothers, but not to that Bruiser who still wears his helmet.

[@XArctracerX]

@@hiddendesire3076 I don't think anyone was saying that Skull model belonged to the Bruiser, and no it doesn't belong to the Sister, there are four Gatekeeper types we know about, three in game one on roadmap only. The one that wears the Skull mask can be seen on the roadmap but also has a model in game, so yes it belongs to what we could call the normal group of Gatekeepers/The Grunt type, since their normal sized without two much equipment. Those Gatekeepers are also what are seen leading the Tarasque though without the Skull mask, again we know this thanks to the files as theres two versions of the model, one with Skull mask one with out.

Dollar-Store Space Marine

[@omegilla]

Thats not a gatekeeper thats an Order dude we've yet to encounter.

[@underpaidmook]

They definetly need to change his design (he's a Gatekeeper, he has the GATE logo on his body) to either white or any other color that isn't Ordo related (unless it's intentional)

[@omegilla]

@@underpaidmook I'd have to look again but I was near dead sure that guy was an Order member with his stuff on him. Maybe i'm wrong. I mean, we know the Gatekeepers are a potential threat, per the email where "dummies in labcoats" were being used as targets in their gun range or something to that effect. Clearly there has been some kind of contingency within GATE's own higher staff for dealing with the researchers.

[@XArctracerX]

@@omegillaSo little thing about that email with people in lab coats, that is actually due to a Order spy in GATE so is also not something related to the Gatekeepers

[@XArctracerX]

@@omegilla Sorry if this sends twice, having internet and youtube issues. But so actually, the email on dummies in labcoats, which refers to the security team using them for target practice, isn't actually tied to the Gatekeepers at all, as the Gatekeepers are a separate entity from the security team what that email actually refers to is the Order, given that the person who its directed to we have cause to believe they are an order spy as theres other emails that lead us to believe they are sabotaging gate to be ready for the order attack.

[@literatemax]

You're wrong. Look at the Abiotic Factor update roadmap that was posted by the developers. It shows three gatekeepers in one of the teaser images. One of them is identical to the large guy.
