Literally so bizarre

Like dont enslave us to your forgone agricultural conclusions!!!

fast dew
#

See i could understand it for agriculture specific unis but. What

midnight ice
#

where i am the non-college school years are divided by two semesters; the first semester starts July, the second is January

#

i guess that counts for "starting at the middle of the year"?

fast dew
#

... weird but

#

But like

#

Its similar enough here

#

Our first semester is January

#

And i believe the second is in like. July maybe?

lean garden
#

the reason there was a summer break is because of agriculture

#

and then the agri dropped and all thats left was culture

fast dew
#

Dawg I thought it was for like. Crisis

Makes sense

#

and then thanks to a lovely thing called colonialism and then subsequently post-colonial, and then globalisation, the time period just sticks as such all around

Oh my God did i tell you guys I got a pomegranate tree now

So I have been seeing the discussion on how Follie could have obtained access to RPG knowledge.

Been thinking about it a little.

Maybe Follie also was a frame related to Rell? That might mean the connection with Lyon and onwards with "all Harrows".

Lyon can dredge artifacts from the Void. Maybe something like that and Follie knows about the timeline...?

I might be throwing ideas a bit blindly, it just seems strange, why Chains of Harrow specifically if it isn't related to Rell then?

eleanor being 2 minutes older than arthur is genuinely frying me for some reason

ofc the infestation would know what the rpg looks like LOL

A friend told me Warframe has great lore but a bad storytelling, is it true?

gentle isle
#

what do you think about it?

fleet furnace
#

honestly, i can see it, there is a lot of lore but youre going to have to go digging just about everywhere only to then have to piece the scraps you get together

gentle isle
#

i mean some people like that

#

just look at all the ppl who love diving into fromsoft games lore

#

those games are anything but straightforward in terms of worldbuilding

midnight ice
#

i do like that

gentle isle
#

whether it's bad or not is purely subjective

fast dew

#

The immediate story is great, the way it tells "lore" it a bit scattershot

drowsy saddle
#

The mysterious case of salad V

lean garden
#

they might have actual criticisms or they might fall into the bracket where its bad storytelling if its not spoonfed to them

vestal vine
#

He likes any kind of narrative

#

Its something I'll discover myself

#

Im in Uranus rn, to be fair the only part I found interesting was the Deimos family quest

drowsy saddle
#

Second dream is where the plot starts to pick up

midnight ice
#

perfect time for the story to open up

Before then you're pretty just reliant on ordis' cephalon fragments

What makes the Sentient Natah (Lotus/Margulis) different from other Sentients?

During the Old Peace, it is explained that through prolonged absence of the Voidblooms, a Sentient would return to a state of mind that limits them to looking for orders to follow and a simple avenue for Sentients to find that purpose is through the Sentient Hivemind.

So I ask, why is Natah different?

fast dew
#

Natah, Erra, Hunhow and. Pragasha or however you spell it, were made in a separate way to someone like Adis or other fragments

sleek berry
#

So, like how some Grineer are made from different Genemolds?

#

Okay, that makes sense

fast dew
#

Natah and Erra were created by some form of reproduction, a uterus is involved on hunhow's side. The fragments we fight are splinters from Hunhow

#

Physical parts of his body he broke off, compared to. Birth

strange plinth
fast dew
#

Hunhow is a nice name.

sleek berry
#

Well Hunhow is a big boy, so I imagine he'd break off into Mini-Mes

fast dew
#

Hunhow is rather small compared to his wife

#

And. He's huge to us

sleek berry
#

That's terrifying to think about now.

midnight ice

#

now that i think of it, the Hun- prefix so far has two massive sentients under it (Hunhow and, technically, Hunhullus)
-lysts are small ground units
-ix are railjack/space units

would the transference would work on some human being in the way that the op did to umbra

midnight ice
#

i dddddddddddont think so? the closest thing we have are the protoframes

idle fog
#

or can you talk to someone telepathically with it

midnight ice
#

ballas could, but that was when umbra is already half warframe

#

i guess not, no, not to regular people

fast dew
#

You have more chances of transferring into a tree.

||I wonder how it would feel like to be like Alad V and be infested||

glass sluice
#

I always saw the Umbra transferrance thing because of the Infested part of him, so it would always require it.
as for a tree, I got nothing, but it covers the rest of the times we've done it AFAIK.

#

maybe there was a little infested in the tree or something.

restive river
#

It’s possible you can use transference on anything with a mind, however intelligent it may be
Humans or any being of their level are more difficult maybe due to the fact there’s already a strong mind in that body

#

With Umbra (and possibly the Hex) he has a transference bolt which
Does something in regards to transference, we don’t have a lot of info on the bolts but we know Umbra’s is specifically special

#

Oh also we use transference on void-made Maws so the infestation is not a factor

midnight ice
#

ooh, yeah

#

and orowyrms

restive river
#

Yup!

midnight ice
#

which, oh, do they count as having a strong mind? theyre still whining the whole time we fight them?

restive river
#

Which is why I think it’s more about the capacity of the mind rather than anything specifically physical

restive river
#

Probably cause the emotional breakdown

midnight ice
#

fair!

When Arthur boots us he’s in battle-mode
Ofc he’s gonna fight!

Only other thing that boots us is Umbra and he’s in lash out at everything mode cause trauma constantly replaying

So, guys

#

The Technocyte Virus from 1999 is just the first version of the Infestation or it is A version of the Infestation?

fast dew
#

Mhm.

rotund trellis
#

The Infestation lore is like:

  • They created the Infestation, based on an existing virus (Technocyte), and launched it against the Sentients. It didn't work.
  • Then they created a variation of that Infestation, which was the Helminth that they used it to create the Warframes.

Is that?

rotund trellis
fast dew
#

Oh, they didn't create it

fast dew

Infestation wasn't created by anyone we know

Shit was always there

Albrecht exclusively worked with the helminth, which does not infest others easily. It builds mass, yeah but its not something like techrot or the mire strain

Also I have been made aware of Lettie claiming he made them "silent carriers" is. Only really for genetic diseases

# strange turtle First known

Considering it’s biomechanical nature and ability to not just interface with but spread through tech there was likely a progenitor strain that adapted or was modified to get to that point

Also she apparently has an animal rescue that. Kept rabid animals alive? Which is particularly strange considering that you'd need to do post mortem issue examination of the brain to diagnose rabies VomEyes

I'm completely immune to the infestation because it doesn't want my personality in there

@PabloMakes Hello Pablo, longtime player, and I think Follie looks great. I have a question regarding Follie's second ability (Sketchbook), and that is if the items spawned will have their default art/textures? Or will they look more 'inky' to match the vibe?

well, no need to ask how follie knows what an rpg is

#

its all just inkmagination babey

twin whale

i mean

#

there are missile tubes in [current year] as well

lean garden
#

but before she was summoning scaldra rpgs

#

which dont exist in the modern time

feral cape

I kinda imagine it was more just an intent thing like wahg

Manifest a pistol and some otherworldly consciousness will fill in the blank about how exactly a gun works when you summon it

ye

it could be any rpg

putting an explosive infront of a tube is not unheard of tech

The grineer probably have some

just ask the zarr

Conceptual embodiment?

yes that's the one

feral cape

Or Alternatively

fast dew

Yeah its pretty similar, but not so controlled

lean garden
#

praise the waaaaagh

feral cape
#

You're summoning intent and as long as the pistol doesn't get cracked open it'll work

twin whale
#

orkz just control it because it is needed to explain all the goofs

feral cape
#

But once it gets cracked open you realize its just a shell and it ceases function

#

The illusion breaks

twin whale
#

since it's a comedy piece and not exactly what warframe is using it for

fast dew
#

Purple orks with CE rules would be funny to imagine

twin whale

are they they sneakers?

CE would probably just make them disappear if they screwed it hard enough

About as old as Ballas and every other person that survived the fall.

#

Ballas would be as senile

Mm, but ballas went into cryo, didnt he?

silk atlas

And it's not like he's the only one anyway

#

Teshin hello teshin

#

We do gotta remember the entrati are brainwormed, but at the same time. They usually remember things correctly

#

Except for Father and when he met mother, for some reason

twin whale
#

my understanding from just playing the game was that they have clouded minds partially by being asleep all the time

#

because of what i assume is a hivemind dream, individuality becomes less important

silk atlas
#

The Infested might have done more of the damage

twin whale
#

other infested things still keep their memory to SOME degree

fast dew
#

Nah, the hivemind just messes with memories in general, but there's been extreme physical damages. Probably why they're so sleepy lol

#

Ehhh? We dont really. Talk to other fully infested

silk atlas
twin whale
#

not like, your average charger

fast dew
#

Yeah, which. Have no memory other than slight personality traits

#

They have to be forcibly reminded of things [like umbra] to hold memories

it's non-zero, but yeah I am stretchng it

with transference and such

like between tenno, not from the original like the dax fella

Tenno on tenno action

fast dew
#

Somatic... interference?

twin whale
#

let's say Tenno A and Tenno B transfer into the same frame in sequence, the frame is doing something that would trigger Tenno A's trauma so they bail quickly, would Tenno B possibly feel the remnants of that trauma response?

fast dew

Like when theres too much of a certain frequency in a single spot and it messes with cameras n shit, but like. Tenno?

Like two tenno on one liset

#

Hm, good question

twin whale
fast dew
#

Im. Just unsure if transference works with multiple tenno on one vessel

strong viper
fast dew
#

Can. Can we do that in duviri?

glacial bough
#

Still no, Transference isn't a psychic field

strong viper

We can feel others trauma and help them

I don't see why something like trauma lingering wouldn't be impossible

The protoframes experience it actually

Marie talks about feeling the original wisp as if she was physically there

(Empathy is psychic fullstop)

Mhm

strong viper

lol

fast dew

Like it would need to be super quick and it wouldnt be long lasting

#

But our warframes do feel the same thing we do

#

And likewise we learn their dances

#

Their emojis and fortnite emotes

twin whale
#

like my original question was regarding less of a star wars force "I can sense there has been great sadness here" and more like "woah, this sucks, so anyway I started blasting"

fast dew

And I can imagine that fight/flight/freeze does extend to that

has it not reached tau? did nobody attack tau during the war?

DryGhoul well therefore we can't seem to tell if it's cable or the something else.

twin whale

it is obviously a cable

#

it even has braiding

midnight ice
#

its obviously a cable or umbilical adjacent

#

likely as a tether or refuel

midnight ice
#

probably handwaved in the same way

twin whale
#

yea

twin whale
#

it is probably how you board the railjack but also I have the upgraded omni so I could just teleport

#

😃 oh now, we know how it works.

twin whale
#

it's probably just to the door in the floor behind the cockpit

spice wedge
#

ScottStare I wonder how does railjack works, when we enter it, if there isn't orbiter around us.

#

Do they have some design of how it worked in the beginning of the making.

#

The ships

twin whale

it's kinda weird too because I'd just like

stick them together belly to belly

LotusIntensified i need to find that information im curious.

it attaches right where the hatch in the railjack would be, in the "room" behind the cockpit

also in searching for concept art of this, I came to realize how many people misunderstand the scale of the orbiter and lander

Thonkzu I guess how the sentients and corpus works, they are ok.
Grineer one on other hand is like a room full of glasses walls or mirrors.

spice wedge
#

True

#

Thonkzu on railjack missions. There are areas where we needed to finish that white icon area,where is bonus items drops,which involves a question, what that big object was used for and what was it.

#

But I gotta admit I like those areas to be honest, it just gives different environment.

#

And feelings being around it.

#

Usually it's a defunct Orokin Tower that the Corpus/Grineer are looting, and we swoop in and steal their stuff.

spice wedge
#

GrineerFear i wonder how much orokin tower made and how huge was it in orokin system. Before

twin whale
#

we only know of our solar system + tau, don't we?

#

or am I mistaken

smoky gulch
#

Well, Orokin did despoil solar system to the point they just... Decided they would rather plunder another, rather than strip this one further

#

So their shiny towers might have been many

#

I like the realism, given how few planets are actually inhabitable

#

terraforming mars is probably easier than terraforming the next best planet in a far away system

#

but not as easily inhabited an already inhabitable planet far away

tall echo
twin whale
#

are you calling me a toobee? Or not toobee? that is the question.

strong viper
twin whale
#

technically yes, but it also means "making the planet habitable for us considering the system"

I have an idea

lean garden
twin whale
#

what if we just eat the sun

strong viper
lean garden
strong viper
#

Our sun only gets a few more hundred million from now

twin whale
#

some words speak of millennia

#

idk if that was to be taken literally

lean garden
strong viper
#

(Ballas)

strong viper
midnight ice
lean garden
#

even as vague as the timeline is, nothing indicates that we're anywhere close to the end of the suns lifespan

strong viper
#

Right. Thats why i cant even see it on my chart.

midnight ice
#

sun isnt any more orange than i remember

lean garden
strong viper
#

Which was more due to resource mining

#

Traditionally in sci fi terraforming is to escape this system

lean garden
#

sure

strong viper
#

So i do concede there

#

Im just asking moreso than saying ig

lean garden
#

either way orokin era or now, not close enough for the death of the sun to be the problem

strong viper
#

Idk the tech seems so advanced and drifter and Op not even knowong what year it is

#

(Per KIM) just doesnt make me feel good about it

lean garden
strong viper
#

Exactly. So DO we have time?

#

Big ol 6 7

lean garden
#

so its not a case of "the human experiment have gone on so long they forgot"

strong viper
#

Right, right

lean garden
#

its just a case of record keeping gone wrong

strong viper
#

But we still because of that can't say not enough time has passed either

lean garden
#

eeh, id you take what albrecht says about 10k years to be in the ballpark of true, we can still say not enough time has passed

strong viper
#

Well if he has a rough estimate maybe that is promising. Cant help but look at NW as foreshadowing sometimes

midnight ice
#

the sun is not showing any signs of turning into a red giant

strong viper
lean garden
#

Something forcibly trying to eat the sun shouldnt be considered foreshadowing for the natural death of the sun I do think

midnight ice
#

or even any signs close to experiencing considerable aging in the context of a star's lifespan

strong viper
#

Like, boom we are already talking perita now

#

Whats the rush? Orokin are dead

midnight ice
#

because the story is advancing?

strong viper
#

Yeah, and?

#

Where to?

#

It aint HERE

twin whale
# strong viper Our sun only gets a few more hundred million from now

as far as I understand it, given nothing drastic happens except for the interaction between the sun and the earth, life as we know it becomes unviable in ca 50 million years and the sun itself still has 1.5 billion years left

at some point tho, the size of the sun will be 2AU which is bad because an Astronomical Unit is the distance between us and the sun... very crispy

midnight ice
#

and we're going to Tau to find [whatever lotus said at the end of TOP that i dont remember exactly]?

twin whale
#

either way, orokin don't live for millions of years

strong viper
twin whale
#

at least there hasn't been enough time to test that, but given the mortality rates and in-fighting I'm pretty sure it's not possible :p

midnight ice
#

because our memory of it was erased?

#

either that or deeply repressed hence dark refractory?

IDK whether to trust her or not

lean garden

That is kinda Lotus' whole deal though. There's always been that "do we?" kinda vibe from her.
Which is why I like her as a character so much, she's complicated.

and she's sus in the pager scene before '99 as well

fast dew
restive river

#

I dont. Fully trust the lotus, but only because I'm unsure the motives the other two would have

twin whale
#

her mysterious rebuking of and dealings with wally

#

it is not yet resolved

lean garden
#

ah we're in the lotus deal territory LOL

feral cape
restive river
#

What supposed deal did she make again

twin whale

like I am not making a claim

fast dew

#

Cause it wasn’t the moon

twin whale
#

I am saying it's not resolved yet

lean garden
twin whale
#

the picture is taken from a thread that was "LOOOK SHE IS SMILING JUST LIKE WALLY"

#

but it's not the same smile and that part i think is just silly

restive river
#

What dealings exactly tho

twin whale
#

????

#

that's exactly the point...

lean garden
twin whale
#

it's unresolved, we are being kept in the dark, and I don't like where it is going

restive river
#

What is unresolved though
What dealings with Wally are you referring to

twin whale
#

my god

#

WE DO NOT KNOW IF THERE IS ONE OR NOT, IT IS UNRESOLVED

#

I'm not gonna type all of that again

#

and if you ask again I am just gonna assume you're being a jerk for no reason

restive river
#

Why would she make a deal with Wally

restive river
twin whale
#

we did not get an answer

#

it's a cliffhanger that isn't resolved

restive river
#

The cliffhanger is she maybe made a deal

twin whale
#

yes

lean garden
#

Hm, not sure if I can share in that sentiment

restive river
#

Yeah I doubt she made a deal

lean garden
#

Im quite staunchly in the doubt she made a deal camp

#

she may be affected by wally as shown in Lotus eaters, but you need not make a deal to be affected

restive river
#

I don’t believe anything really suggests it and I doubt she would have

lean garden
#

as shown by all the adults in the Zariman as well as the red veil members

twin whale
#

"making a deal" with wally is shown to be incredibly one-sided

#

i don't mean she's in cahoots

lean garden
#

the real "cliffhanger" is what wally intends to do next with the lotus, since we've had 2 quests after TNW that indicates wally wants to do something to the lotus

twin whale
#

I mean there was something that made him leave and I doubt it was the sentient beating the void

fast dew
#

If she ever did make a deal, it would've been from wally wearing her down, not her wanting it naturally perse

restive river
lean garden

its like uuuuh

Wally was also speaking to us

Tbh having a dedicated Wiki instead of using Fandom is huge

twin whale
#

I've had this debate a trillion times regarding path of exile, it is just not worth the dev time when there are conservation projects on player-ran but officially linked wikis

glass sluice
#

We already have 2 warframe wikis, a 3rd just feels excessive at this point.

fast dew
#

Best we got is the orokin archives, but thats not exactly a wiki

twin whale
#

and an "official source" making an error, or spoiling details, is a much bigger issue than simply having a compilation of stuff people know

fast dew
#

Generally no wiki should be treated as an official source without a legitimate, alternative source

#

The orokin archives works because its ran by one person and its mainly just transcripts

fast dew
# twin whale [says who?]

Its a general rule, especially in lore based chats. You will not be taken seriously if you just say the wiki said it

twin whale
#

that is a wiki formatting tag for unverified information btw

#

just a source joke

restive lantern
#

That's fair! My favorite game ever is Dragon Age origins and it has like in depth codex that I always found it really fun to read through lore for hours. I think even just perhaps a slightly more thorough codex system would be nice at least.

fast dew
#

Oh..lmao sorry I use [] too much to tell

lean garden
# twin whale [says who?]

typically the wiki is extremely accurate for gameplay, since the raw data is there for the taking from DE.

But there have been a painful few times where a few of us had to edit the wiki because whoever wrote the lore blurb got something reaaaally wrong

Radiant starfire light our worlds ablaze. Igneous as the burning sun, Ember's fiery rage engulfs her foes and scatters their cinders in the solar wind. Empress of elemental flame, scorch the land with her wildfires. Control her fury or fuel the heat to unleash destructive incineration, leaving charred corpses and ashes adrift in her scarlet sea.
