Will We Ever Change? The Lore of HORIZON: ZERO DAWN! (pt. 2)

[@TiptoeTheTank]

Hey, lore buds! This is ANOTHER (!!) video made possible by channel moderator Viryl and his backlog program. If you've been tuning in for streams, you'll have seen a spicy series being played, that is going to take a lot of time to process and write for. Viryl's lore cuts have made the continuation of regular uploads possible. If you'd like to check out his no-commentary lore cut, you can view it here: kzbin.info/aero/PLcFXFn82cabYttv47j7RMo1UbI7C2eHLR If interested, check the 'Community' tab on the channel page for updates! Or, come see me on Twitter (twitter.com/TiptoeTheTank ). There's a lot of fun news/projects brewing behind the scenes that I'm excited to share and talk about. PEACE! -Tip

[@alfakynkillu8330]

I commented on part 1. I also remember reading that Hades had at one point been online to restart once or twice. I believe almost everything besides the timing of the rebirth of humanity

[@LegendaryDarkKnight602]

Love your videos, beautifully told. I'd give you 100 likes if I could. Mua!

[@Dlo2018]

I have a theory to run by you as to what the mysterious signal was that gaia received that kinda ruined everything. I believe that it was another A.I. that was made to be a copy of faro. after he killed the board and destroyed apollo, he decided to save himself. as indicated by his own personal bunker, he learned how to make an A.I. copy of himself. Unfortunately, he was mentally deranged at this time so that's the copy we got stuck with. No doubt he owned a satellite at some point. I think faro uploaded his consciousness to it to kinda preserve himself safely, just in case. while that A.I. was all alone in space seeing things happen on the surface. well overtime it became more crazy and demented and longed for..."others" that's why when it attacked gaia, the other A.I.s were made to give it friends if you will. that way it wouldn't be alone. all of this comes from the simple fact, he missed elizabeth.

[@dorucreo]

please do god of war

[@raintoplay]

Forbidden west please

[@Kalnaur]

Sylens is, I think, just slightly more dangerous than Ted Faro. A person who is interested only in their image is terrifying, but one who only prizes knowledge, above others, above the world, above safety? That is a threat high enough for this new world to fear. Still, Ted Faro was a monster.

[@bthsr7113]

Knowledge can be good or bad, but ignorance and ego are pretty much condemned to always be harmful. With Sylens, my response is, "I understand, I do not agree." With Faro, it's more like, "I would put you in the ground with a smile if you weren't already dead."

[@Kalnaur]

@@bthsr7113 Knowledge is totally good or bad, but how we pursue knowledge? Well, we can do it carefully, recklessly, kindly, cruelly, thoughtfully, heedlessly. Ted Faro should be in the ground a million times over, and HADES should not be allowed to roam free, but once again slotting it into a Horus? Sylens is being reckless and heedless in his search for knowledge, while still being very very smart. That combination, just like Faro's original path, are fraught with bad outcomes but the problem is, Sylens more or less knows what he's doing. Ted . . . first he just wanted the best payday, to be unbeatable. Then he wanted us to forget him if he couldn't be the hero. A person who knows what they're doing and still persists is, in my opinion, more dangerous than a person who didn't know what they were doing in the first place, because if they want they can do more direct damage, instead of just potential, random chaos.

[@KingViper645]

r/fucktedfaro

[@buzzfightbeer8023]

There is no way we have seen the last of Sylens...

[@ruby-bruja6923]

What if Sylens is the clone of Faro? To me it would make sense to me because it seems that the story of HZD has a theme of duality, destruction and creation following each other. Sylens is the opposite side of the coin of Alloy. Although, Sylens might be less than of a genetic match to Faro in comparison to Alloy and Elizabeth.

[@sht3v3n]

Holy shit, I would love a prequel playing as Rost. Hunting down the 12 death-seakers that killed his daughter.

[@ferablue1318]

That would have been such a cool dlc :,)

[@Bateluer]

Basically, Assassin's Creed.

[@somewhereelse1235]

Rost is the Death-seeker The 12 are bandits

[@supadupashat]

That's a nice way to go. How about a prequel putting you in the boots of a soldier in the last days of humanity? Fighting endless waves of Faro robots? Just spitballin' here! Great series either way!

[@GeorgeMurphy1000]

Given that they said he even travelled into The Forbidden West to hunt these people, I am hoping that there are references (Even if it's just audio logs) of his time there in the Forbidden West game I am so looking forward to this game!!!

[@bthsr7113]

The Shadow Carja effortlessly massacring the other newly minted braves might also have something to do with bringing an autocannon to a bow and spear fight. Just saying.

[@tayduatrinhcoi]

Auto Canon 0 - Plot Armor 1

[@boooster101]

@Connor Lonergan if you play on the hardest difficulty, it's a bit more realistic. Because you can't bullet-sponge your way through encounters like that one.

[@boooster101]

@Connor Lonergan Yeah sure. Though I often try to remove videogamey elements for my headcanon. Like during the attack of Meridian to be FAR MORE people. Or how Aloy is a compassionate character in the cutscenes ... and wipes out whole bandit camps without batting an eye in free roam. So in my headcanon she didn't just wipe out several teams during the proving. Not saying you are wrong, just not taking the gaming part 100% serious for my immersions sake.

[@boooster101]

@Connor Lonergan yeah but not in the way H:ZD portrays it in free roam.

[@boooster101]

@Connor Lonergan at least in the Dialogue with Nil, yes.

[@seanmoore3648]

Thanks! Would love it if you did Horizon Forbidden West. Your retelling of the story of Zero Dawn is the best on KZbin

[@Viryl_TV]

Thanks for the kind words and tip for Tip! I meant to reply to this earlier. Tip started to do Forbidden West on release but she just wasn't feeling the characters or gameplay so it was put on hiatus. It's still on the "to-do" list but it's been so long that we might just wait until the PC release.

[@TribuneAquila]

Faro sounds like that guy who refused to take a history course in university

[@thebagel_lord]

"Erend is a walking search warrant" is such a great description of the man

[@centurioknuddel505]

Dangit, this world and its stories are amazing! Now, I'm really hyped for "Forbidden West".

[@TiptoeTheTank]

I'm very interested in seeing where they go with the story. There's a lot of potential!

[@Shadoxite]

The least I know of is- Errand now has a focus to reveal the technology with aloy You can actually find leaks of forbidden west in ZERO DAWN. The 1st game its there in a data point consisting of new machines and a new evil.

[@anthonygordon9483]

I found the game to be a little difficult. I don't mind the challenge but to play the game on normal would require a shit ton of time hunting and gathering parts which I felt slowed the pacing of the story of the game. I dont mind the game play but I hope they find better ways to find parts for traps etc cause I did not like grinding for parts and food. Other then that the story was good.

[@FuckFascistYouTube]

@@anthonygordon9483 I played on the hardest difficulty and I suck at gaming. This genuinely isn't a flex, I'm just pointing out that it's actually a relatively easy game if you play it right

[@anthonygordon9483]

@@FuckFascistKZbin I believe you but playing it right consumes a lot of time in hunting and gathering. closer I got to the end the more I had to grind to craft things to prepare for the fight. Even when you do all the side quest you sometimes end up losing more then what you had and have to grind again to prepare for the next. It wasn't fun for me. It was only difficult cause I tried going through the game without doing all that even when I did the side quest. The game works great when you have the leisure time to play it correctly. But I found the gameplay to not work for people who are casual gamers besides playing the game in casual mode. In short I feel the side quest need to reward more so you don't feel like you lose more then what you put in. This slowed the pacing of the game down tremdously cause you always had to hunt and gather to prepare for the next. Any other RPG game you benefit with pay and not all side quest paid or even paid that much .

[@spacegirl1281]

the youtube algorithm suggested this to me and I'm here to thank it after bingewatching most of the videos on your channel, this is amazing

[@TiptoeTheTank]

Hell yeah! Thank you for checking out the channel and letting me know what brought you here. 😉

[@doha057]

@@TiptoeTheTank I got it today by algorithm, and as a chronic binge watcher, had to watch both videos back to back, subbed as soon as I was halfway through the first video, now I will go watch all the videos from the games I love. You are doing a great service to these games, and a beautiful voice as well.

[@phanteh]

Another sub from a random algorithm recommendation. Was always interested in this game bit never had the time. Awesome couple of videos, you make grasping the storyline very easy!

[@Colonel_Overkill]

Glad the bot recommend this. Great content I never heard of.

[@TSotP]

You know, I've played the game several times and k love it. But watching this video is the first time has occurred to me that a focus recognises people genetically. And further more, that the focus gave her the same access that Elizabet would have had. Obviously the facilities would have recognised her, but it explains why Aloy can use her focus in a much more sophisticated way.

[@drakewiz]

Teresa was one of the MVP of the game (so underrated), and by far the smartest person among all the NPCs, even Sylas or Aloy. She is old, traditions bind her, can't operate machinery, and yet she is the one knowing what to do. That's incredibly impressive.

[@kennethbarton9008]

I think the women who pulled Rost back over the line was the outcast Greata who Aloy takes care of in the beginning of the game

[@josh0156]

Still blows my mind the sheer depth of the story, characters, and lore of this game. The fact that even after skipping a lot of side-story you still needed ~2 hours of video to explain it all really illustrates my point.

[@andreboden1437]

I did not expect this kind of quality when I randomly stumbled upon this channel. The way you told this story elevated it so much. Your voice, the words you use fits perfectly. If I was a wealthier man I would donate to your patreon but all I can contribute is a sub. Keep up the great work!

[@mattmedrala1947]

So glad to see someone digging deep into this game's story! I like the world building more than the characters, though I do really like Aloy and Sylens. I feel like the sequel may throw in some curve balls about the "ancients" - maybe Dr. Sobeck wasn't so perfect, and maybe Ted wasn't JUST the worst human ever. I'm personally really hyped for Forbidden West, even if the lead writer has moved on to a new company. Fun trivia: John Gonzalez, writer for HZD, had also written for Fallout: New Vegas, particularly the DLC centered around tribes. One thing I find fascinating is that some ideas from the cancelled Fallout 3 (codenamed 'Van Buren') ended up recycled for New Vegas...but I believe this ALSO applies to HZD since Gonzalez worked on both projects. In particular, the 'Twin Mothers' from this cancelled Fallout game strongly resemble the Nora of HZD.

[@TiptoeTheTank]

There was mention of cryogenic freezing in the first game, right? And Ted had his own bunker and trillions of dollars...

[@Shadoxite]

@@TiptoeTheTank and so much to uncover in forbidden west

[@ML-yn9yu]

While I dont think there will be curve balls about Sobeck and Ted (well). I'll think we'll be closer to finding out who messed with Gaia before HZD picked up or even what caused that Swarm to go crazy in the 1st place.. Or that The Odyssey might not have actually blown up.

[@TAP7a]

I hope that, if Ted Faro is brought back one way or another, that it is only for the purpose of giving us the opportunity take out the existential frustration of removing the entire history of humanity on him. Physically.

[@DrakeAurum]

Personally, I'm betting we don't see Faro himself, but his clone descendent thanks to a twisted version of the Lightkeeper project, totally indoctrinated to the party line of believing himself to be the reborn saviour of humanity.

[@muzzammeel]

This is by far the most gripping open world game I've ever played! Forbidden West is just around the corner and I can not wait to play it. Already preordered for PS5. Thanks for the recap!

[@shirokasoy]

"Wherever that she would go, Rost, promised that he would follow." As someone who played this game countless of time, I gotta admit, that line made me tear up quite a bit.

[@SinaPhoenix1994]

These two episodes were just LOVELY!!! On-point jokes, perfect voice acting and how you actually relate to characters. Played this game a year ago and it was to hear you tell the story! Thanks

[@skullboydan]

I just watched these two videos. I can't wait for the next one on the forbidden west or the DLCs. I realize this is 2 years old but I'm still hopeful. your voice is perfect and engaging

[@Viryl_TV]

The original plan was to do Forbidden West on release, but it sort of got pushed to the wayside. However with the recent announcement of the complete edition coming to PC, I'll be doing a full playthrough capture for her on release. Nothing is guaranteed, but it is on the list 👌

[@Ricardo29j]

@@Viryl_TV In my opinion, don't hold out for the PC version. There's no guarantee it'll be a perfect port at launch, and not much people has a high-end PC like the PS5. Ultimately, go with what works for you now, PS5 is a fantastic choice for enjoying Horizon Forbidden West and I mean the best pc that you can play horizon.

[@meloettafg]

57:43 funnily enough, Aloy actually hasn't have time to process what has happened since she left the sacred lands💀

[@ForestRaptor]

The algo gods still need their sacrifices of comments and likes in this calendar year of 2023, or 3 years A.C.

[@johninenglish8236]

Okay I just thought of something. The removing rost spirit and making him a deathseeker. What if the ritual is actually like what was used in the Lightbringer protocol? Now Rosts DNA is stored in the mountain.

[@TiptoeTheTank]

Ohhh! That's a good thought!

[@Marg_Sabl]

That could be why aloy isn’t a 100% genetic match for elisabet sobek

[@ericalbers4867]

That would be impossible. They didn't have access to Eleuthia-9, it was completely sealed shut. Well, except for the brief moment a caretaker robot brought Aloy out and sat her on the ground to be discovered. Then it permanently resealed until she grew up and eventually restored the alpha registry. On top of that the Nora were forbid from entering anyway. As to why she's 99.47% instead of a higher percentage, it's always been an interesting question among people that know the lore of the game (as well as what exactly caused the "glitch" and sissy the random signal that GAIA received). While they were forbid from genetic engineering before the FARO plague and wanted normal humans to repopulate the Earth - GAIA could've decided to do it anyway. Making her physically enhanced to ensure she survived to end Hades.

[@DK-Design]

@@ericalbers4867 I agree GAIA probably did some tweaking based on feats only she had in-game. Based on the security protocols in place GAIA understood they had some leeway with how much of the genetic code could be adjusted for their plan to work. But there is the logical possibility that it was garbage DNA from the embryonic cloning process. GAIA had the sequence in memory but the building blocks would have to come from somewhere else, like cryogenically frozen egg blanks.

[@dancingonfire6212]

@@ericalbers4867 DNA also doesn't perfectly replicate. The half percentage could also be natural mutations in Aloy's DNA over time or even from slight differences in artificial vs. natural gestation.

The only let down for me was the defence mission at the end. They speand all game 'bigging up' that oseram cannon that brought down the walls of meridian, and I was expecting like, 105mm guns salvaged from the old world the size of a house lined up on the wall. Kind of a let down that it was just another heavy weapon you could pick up. You expect me to believe those little guns bround down the walls of Meridian? I feel like they did the Oseram dirty with this game. We never really got to see much of them except in Freeheap.

Horizon zero dawn 2 will explore the mysterious signal that forced Gaia to destroy itself in order to stop Hades from destroying the world. Who sent the signal? Did someone survive a 1000 years ago somewhere in the world or space to start interfering with Gaia? To what end were they willing to destroy the AI that undid the faro plague and restored earth and gave humanity a second chance? The story in horizon zero dawn is definitely one of the most immersive and a hard look at the human penchant for self destruction.
