[rain otter]

Maybe

[fiery kettle]

[balmy storm]

Yesn’t (not eternalism)

[obtuse gyro]

It teaches because it longs to be known, and in being known it exists. And in existing, it survives.

[plush swan]

Hey, wait a sec.

Drifter's hand got replaced by the Lotus's hand when they became an Amalgam.

Arthur's hand gets possessed by [???] in the 1999 trailer.

Connection?

[obtuse gyro]

Given the Dont b l8 I would say thats Albrecht

[nocturne kiln]

Okay, I think i have all the text I might want screenshotted. After tomorrow, I can start translating the Holovania mall

92 pictures...

Oi vey

[warm anvil]

did you get the sign on the wall at the very top behind the stage

[nocturne kiln]

I thought I did but I may have stopped because of positioning. Let me try again\

DONE

best picture I could take. had to hang onto a ceiling light

[warm anvil]

epic

[wise solstice]

It’s the party of a lifetime

Infested liches soon! Futuristic boy band..?
I think so!

[fierce summit]

Yeah that sign's real annoying to get a good angle on. There's actually a little secret spot right above the speaker on the right side where you can stand without any parkour; you'll need to switch your camera over your shoulder to read the sign but that's how I got my "okay" screenshot of the sign

That being said it's really good to get that sign because it's an anchor store that also appears on the mall directory, where the name is too small to easily read. There's another sign above the store itself but that sign is 50% destroyed.

[wise solstice]

Interesting

Is that corpus?

[fierce summit]

It's 1999 Orokin script. Uses the same rules as the Orokin script we have elsewhere in the game but with new characters

[wise solstice]

Oh, fair

So it’s Orokin language?

[fierce summit]

I call it Orokin because that's where the rules came from; it's arguably a precursor to the Orokin language

I mean really it's English but with a weird character set

[wise solstice]

Ah. So it’s Orokin English

I need to learn how to read that

[fierce summit]

For example, that image says "G-OHL-D UHN-D OO-EYET-S", which if spoken out becomes "Gold and Whites"

[wise solstice]

True

[fierce summit]

Knock yourself out

[wise solstice]

Holy

[fierce summit]

You've triggered my special interest (tm) for the past week

[wise solstice]

Void tongue?

Imagine lol

[fierce summit]

No, that's an actual language with yet more unique symbols

[wise solstice]

I wanna speak corpus and Orokin, it feels right for a Tenno to be bilangual

[fierce summit]

This is just funny English wearing a cool hat

[wise solstice]

Yeah, so I’ve heard

[nocturne kiln]

I think my picture should be good enough to translate though. I just want the practice in translating this stuff. Once I get done with the mall, Im gonna comb through the tennocon footage for store signs to translate

[wise solstice]

Also Tenno speaking Orokin just makes sense for obvious reasons (Executed Space mom most likely spoke Orokin)

[wise solstice]

Nice 👍🏽

Imagine an entire video on how to speak fluent corpus

That would be awesome for after they finish the game. They make 3 new languages. Corpus, Grineer, and Orokin

Just like real life language based off the game

[solemn cloud]

Already been done and it's hilarious
https://youtu.be/RBH7UfeastI?si=erj_BmK1zEYZTtY_

[wise solstice]

It’s unfinished tho-

[solemn cloud]

Seriously can't get through that video without laughing 🤣

Yptike! 🤣

[wise solstice]

“Tapkippy..! Pesse Ysayk” 😭

Not learning that

Better off learning Grineer

[solemn cloud]

Hahahaha yeah it's not practical at all.

[wise solstice]

God- I mean- by the void… the end is wild

[nocturne kiln]

Look. I'm not trying to learn a spoken language. I just think it'd be neat to be the guy in my friend group who can go "Oh yeah, this says this"

[solemn cloud]

Vor's speech 🤣

[wise solstice]

Fair

[wise solstice]

Y e s… but back to boy band… what if we fanboy over them in game

[nocturne kiln]

What I want to know... is why all of On-lyne's signs are in perfect english

[solemn cloud]

To make sure we understand

I honestly believe it's just for the sake of the player.

[wise solstice]

Hmhmhm… they’re aware… that’s why they’re called on-lyne.

[nocturne kiln]

Then they will make you join and embrace them so you can never erase them

[wise solstice]

Baro should be aware too. Cross platform apparently has lore.

[wise solstice]

Real

Arthur becomes part of boy band?

[nocturne kiln]

Ngl, would make for some sick fan art of on-lyne and the Hex being rival music groups

[thick jolt]

Converting infested liches will result in you creating your own talent agency roster

[wise solstice]

On-Lyne (infested) using a mangled Octavia prime to play their music would be a badass concept

[nocturne kiln]

Why not just use a mandacord since that's an in universe instrument?

[wise solstice]

Because using a mangled, broken up Warframe for your abilities is just cool

Against frames too

Let’s say the frame just blow up once the lich is killed/mercy killed (it’ll be like a sister of Parvos dog but only by chance)

And you get like

A built in music track for Octavia if you do get them (with the on-lyne band’s instruments as the sound)

Yknow?

Ngl if I could give ideas to DE I think I’d be hired

Take notes Warframe developers
(Joking, but maybe…)

[nocturne kiln]

Gona be honest, Not too big a fan of another faction getting to use straight up warframes. Zanuka is pushing it as it is

[thick jolt]

Wasnt there a line in the incredibles that summed that up ?

[nocturne kiln]

About warframes? Doubt it

[thick jolt]

I havent heard the line in english but iirc it was something to the effect of "when everyone is special noone is"

[wise solstice]

It wouldn’t be USING it directly, it’d be like… puppet strings controlling the movement of it. Let’s say like

[nocturne kiln]

"When everyone is special, no one will be."

[wise solstice]

It can only play the music because the music thing is literally on their arm

Yknow? So they’re being used as a portable supercharged speaker

The music is gonna be related to the lich abilities I can tell.

[nocturne kiln]

And thats kind of the thing about being accepted. Its not being celebrated, its being no longer vilified. once you're acepted, noone cares cause its normal. The Tenno, (us) are not normal because we are the players

[wise solstice]

Ah

[solemn cloud]

Ok but what if:
On-Lyne vs The Hex in a 90s style rap battle?

[zenith jacinth]

Different writing systems doesn't necessarily mean full different languages, how would you speak in squiggly lines

[zenith jacinth]

Because english exists in-game

[fiery turret]

Would jade prime have the baby born

[carmine portal]

jade prime just becomes the mega kangaskahn of warframe

[brazen cloud]

i had a funi idea to where her fourth ability just has the babyframe appear from a sling across her chest, throwing random bolts of energy

[worldly oak]

I like how so many people interpreted that the Technocyte Coda literally IS On-Lyne, and not just a branch of the Infested using their likeness to lure people in.

Because I can see where it's coming from. The band's whole theme is around technology used to "connect" people around the world, like computers and stuff. So technology would be a big part of their identity. And the Infested are in 1999, albeit under a different name.

It's entirely possible that On-Lyne at some point got some new equipment or computers or whatever that was tainted with TechRot, and they've been compromised ever since.

[zenith jacinth]

There's also the lyrics of the one song we've heard so far, one of coda being named zeke and the reaction to destroying the screens

[worldly oak]

Imagine possessing a will so indomitable that you can hold on to your sense of self amidst a torrent of other consciousnesses for untold eons. Like you're still serving whatever assimilated you, but you are still you.

We lost a real one the day Zeke got ate...!

[tawdry socket]

Zeke is also voiced by Leon Kennedy so Zeke is gonna be more prominent i reckon

[zenith jacinth]

Names mean nothing to me, who is that?

Seriously I never remember the names of voice actors

[nova harness]

Canonically do all Primes exist just we don’t have the relics yet

[tawdry socket]

Leon Kennedy is a protagonist in the Resident Evil games

[zenith jacinth]

Oh

[zenith jacinth]

Seems like the most logical assumption

[fiery turret]

How would they prime jade though

[nova harness]

Find a woman get her pregnant put some gold on it

[fiery turret]

[nova harness]

Literally the most Ballas thing ever

[fiery turret]

It would be worse if he did step 1 by him self

[tawdry socket]

Look at what happened to the last woman ballas found

I assume someone got loided

[nova harness]

https://tenor.com/view/jade-stargirl-green-lantern-gif-23888765

[fiery turret]

Which one, there's many

[tawdry socket]

Margulis

[fiery turret]

Oh dear god

If I were him I would of ditched the orokin for Margulis any day

[nova harness]

You wanted him to continue abusing Space Mom 1?

[solemn cloud]

Ironically Jade may have been the one to execute Margulis.

[ember mulch]

they could pull a revenant prime and go "hey using void eteralism yada yada we covered this pregnant woman in more metal in another possibility"

that or jade prime literally becomes prime jade frame

wonder if we'll ever see orion/sirius again, or is stalker just going to perpetually care for the baby (no idea if warframes themselves can continue to grow with age, so forever warframe child?)

[nova harness]

We probably will

[obtuse gyro]

Jade was in the hands of the orokin for a really long time, there shouldnt be any issues with ballas making a spanky new golden version

[viscid quarry]

I’ll be honest, I can’t get party of your lifetime by on-lyne out of my head

[nova harness]

It’s working as intended then

[viscid quarry]

Indeed

And I’m very much fine with it in my head because it’s great

Btw a proposal:

We use this to gaslight people into thinking it’s a real band

[nova harness]

That description probably caused this

[viscid quarry]

A likely theory

Another one is someone making a connection between entrati and scaldra and the orokin and grineer

[fiery turret]

Not really, what I meant to say is if I had the opportunity to Date Margulis I would and if I was Ballas, drop any evil plots

[nova harness]

You can’t be Ballas without evil plots

[fiery turret]

Fair

[wispy jasper]

Maybe the read Ballas and Erra were so buddy-buddy is they both sucked in the exact same way. They both wanted to have an obedient version of Margulis/Natah who would unquestioningly support their stupid ambitions

[fiery turret]

So basically a slave with extra steps

[wispy jasper]

As we say, Ballas is the guy who got dumped twice by his ai girlfriend

[nova harness]

Technically once the other one lorewise isn’t Ai and was a regular human that was killed before they broke up

[wispy jasper]

I have Party of Your Lifetime in my background playlist currently for reasons I don’t have to explain, and just picked up my g-ma for our weekly visit. Lady hasn’t been able to pay attention to a piece of media in a decade with her dementia and I catch her grooving in the passenger seat.

[wispy jasper]

Well I wasn’t including the human one. He tried to program Lotus twice and failed I mean.

[nova harness]

Didn’t he half succeed at this

[wispy jasper]

Sure. But it’s kind of more lame if you succeed in implanting the “I love you” script in your robot gf and through machine learning both times she realizes how much it sucks to deal with you

[nova harness]

I’m surprised Margulis managed it

I’m surprised we managed it for a time

[scarlet basalt]

In 1999 there could be a confirmation about if infested actually grow stronger by eating other infested (deimos's open world """"boss""")
Bcz like imagine the hex member eating infestation and they grow stronger

And it would actually make Eris more terrifying, i mean, it wouldn't be far fetched with how Eris seems to be starving bcz of the perimeter of safety, not allowing people to naviguate around it
THat the infested actually eat each other

[prime lantern]

What wiki page is this

[nova harness]

Orokin

It's the reason the Orokin page has no lore rn or didn't last I checked

Well Lore and History specifically

[fiery kettle]

so albrecht is a zoomer

[balmy storm]

No, even if that was accurate it’s unlikely that the Orokin from that time would’ve lived on into the empire

[fiery kettle]

huh

[balmy storm]

That’s not accurate, its just a theory and someone slapped it on the wiki

[fiery kettle]

[balmy storm]

It’s unlikely Albrecht was born in the 21st century lol
Or any Orokin during the age of the empire, at least in the Tenno’s time

[nova harness]

Basically whoever wrote it was assuming based on the gun, song description and DE adding a a date to the infested liches section

[thick jolt]

Its so far fetched it overshoots theory territory straight into headcanon, and bad headcanon at that

[balmy storm]

It likely took a while to figure out how to edit their own genetics to extend their age and likely even longer til they would discover the Kuva

[balmy storm]

Mhm!

[fiery kettle]

sadgi

[nova harness]

Rn that section has no lore added

Unless it changed

Someone deleted the whole thing after seeing it

[balmy storm]

I mean yeah

Its not accurate so it shouldn’t be there lol

[nova harness]

Not just the headcanon

All that was untouched was culture and ranks

I’m surprised the mods didn’t revert it yet

Mods don’t like Orokin canon?

[balmy storm]

I don’t think anyone likes them

Nobody should
They sucked lol

I wonder if anyone’s done a deep dive into the Orokin’s crimes and what they’d be charge with by todays standards

There’s gotta be a good handful of warcrimes in there

[nova harness]

There’s quite a few YouTubers that do that

[prime lantern]

Warcrimes only count if you don't win

[nova harness]

Warcrimes are only Warframes if you create a convention about things that are Warcrimes

[fiery kettle]

the convention in question

[solemn cloud]

Something tells me once the Orokin Rose to power they had no need for things like the Geneva Convention or squabbling over warcrimes - it was a horrifyingly unjust society where the elites could do whatever they wanted - and they had so much power that resistance was likely laughable at best.

[balmy storm]

The Orokin ethics committee was short lived

[nova harness]

I wonder how Executors were chosen

[thick jolt]

They were replaced by the debauchery comittee

[viscid quarry]

They don’t exist

Those are purely myth and fantasy tales

[balmy storm]

[open vault]

Just finished New War

Chose Lotus for Lotus' appearance cuz i didnt want the name to change but im definitely buying that Margulis skin

[nova harness]

Did you see that man trapped in the Wall?

He was pretty happy

[open vault]

Heck yeah

MITW is so creepy i love him

[balmy storm]

Love the part where he starts speaking “gibberish”

[ocean void]

why did DE enable this?

Why can u kill stalker now?

[nova harness]

What the heck is a Mara Lohk? -Eleanor Nightingale

[zenith jacinth]

Think it was always possible in tsd, just not worth the effort

[balmy storm]

That’s us

[nova harness]

"I thought there were going to be two of you! Where's the other one?"

[amber terrace]

At the height of my burnout, I ask “what’s next after 1999?” I wanna keep going, keep having something to do aside from leveling stuff for the MR grind

[nova harness]

Yknow levelling stuff up is 1/2 of Warframe right?

And as for what’s after 1999 find out at Tennocon 2025

[amber terrace]

Yeah, I find leveling stuff to be absolutely dreadful, especially when I know that I’m not gonna use the thing I’m leveling up once I get all the xp I can get out of it

[nova harness]

Maybe you could start trying new weapons to solve that problem then

[amber terrace]

Respectfully, why would I want to try new stuff when dakkas like the Incarnons exist? I’ve optimized my Hildryn Prime to do most content in the game very comfortably

[amber terrace]

Brb while I cry in the corner /hj

[zenith jacinth]

For variety

I'm constantly switching warframes and weapons just to have something different. There's so many things you can use, why limit yourself to one set loadout?

[amber terrace]

I limit myself to one loadout because I like being able to bring one frame to any mission, and for me that one frame is Hildryn Prime

[zenith jacinth]

Doesn't that get monotonous at some point

[amber terrace]

Most definitely

The main obstacle in my way of getting into other frames like Styanax, Qorvex, Lavos, etc is that I’ve grown so used to my Hildryn setup making the game easy that when I try other frames, I get frustrated at my own skill issues when I die to basic SP eximus or acolytes

[zenith jacinth]

Then don't play SP

I'm here lvling up mirage in high lvl base star chart missions and still struggling because my only good damage source is my primary(I have run out of primaries to lvl up)

[rain otter]

Mirage is really good even in SP.

[zenith jacinth]

Not with a barely existant build at rank 0

Won't give her a potat either since I'm sacrificing her to the wall once she's maxed

[rain otter]

Okay.

[wise solstice]

“Star platinum?” -Sevagoth

[tight pagoda]

I’ve seen so many breakdowns of the Party of Your Lifetime lyrics that come to the conclusion that OnLyne is already Infested and are trying to spread their influence with some of their lyrics like “join us embrace us, don’t ever erase us”. Is there any actual sign they’re Infested by the time they sing this? Isn’t it possible all these allusions to the Infestation are just tragic coincidences that are funny because of Dramatic Irony?

[zenith jacinth]

No evidence for either side but knowing DE it's more likely that they are already infested at least by the time of that song

[solemn cloud]

Consider this;

At no point do we ever during the demo, see the boys from On-Lyne - we only see/hear recordings and static images, posters and billboards, hear distorted dialogue, and otherwise only see the impact they've had on the world.

The first true reveal is later on when we meet the Technocyte Coda.

[thick jolt]

The infestation has been shown to be insidious before
The case of arlo's cult shows how well the infestation can plan to spread without resistance

[real niche]

I'm still wadgering that they weren't taken over before, since the Techrot would be pretty nice to have snagged a free cult for themselves to gather mass.

[balmy storm]

Iirc the song’s description says they were playing at the stadium

Which we see both in 1999 and later, somehow, in the origin system

[warm anvil]

im pretty sure they have been turned into the creatures at the end of the demo

but we do know exactly what they looked like before

[scarlet basalt]

On Lyne being hinted to be infested before the concert sounds wild as a theory and I like it 😎

Ohhhh I'm pretty sad bcz the Spotify's description of on Lyne make it feels like there will be only party of your lifetime that will be released

Well there's the song "running late" that we wait

[scarlet basalt]

I hope that cyte-09 will also make some big change for sniper
Maybe innate punch through ?

[nocturne kiln]

Perhaps wallhacks? Homing?

unlikely but one wonders

[flat magnet]

Yeah snipers are very underwhelming in an horde looter shooter

[nocturne kiln]

Ricochet!

[fading current]

I’m so freaking excited for CYTE-09
Quincy is def helping with that hype lol

[flat magnet]

Gotta love the cocky south Londoner

[fading current]

Can’t wait to hear more of him and Arthur interacting. They def have beef between each other lol

[zinc ore]

I just wanted to point this out. Looks a little too familiar. Volt pulse helmet

[sleek tangle]

Warframe lich confirmed ?

[zenith jacinth]

Pretty sure they said there'd be more. And why make it a whole seperate spotify artist for just one song?

[tawdry socket]

My hope for Cyte-09 is that his passive buffs from sniper combo like how Kullervo has for the melee combo, because Sniper combo feels like a forgotten feature ngl

[wise solstice]

Party of a lifetime✨
I love them and I don’t even like boy bands

I mean look at how cute they are

[covert tree]

I love how the one in back right looks

[ancient salmon]

ngl, kind of looks like the pacific rim jaeger

[frail flower]

quick question
who is spark?

im guessing appart of making the notes on the atomicycle page
maybe he's another player in the battle against or with big Al?

[tawdry socket]

Could be Amir's codename?

[frail flower]

no his is jitter

hm

[tawdry socket]

Hmm

[frail flower]

since spark can also be used for fire.... maybe its a hint to the next protoframe being revealed be like.... proto-ember or proto-nezha? (ofcourse after 1999 is released)
then again gyre would also fit the spark description

or could be a member of just like another faction that focuses on electricity
just like how the scaldra reference the greenier (kinda)
spark could be part or is the 1999 faction that references the corpus (maybe)

just throwing stuff at the wall rn lol

im so hyped for 1999

[nocturne kiln]

Spark could just be his online handle

Makes the most sense

[frail flower]

u might be right

still i love speculating on this stuff-

[nocturne kiln]

Ikr?

My theory is that most of the city's population is up at the hollovania stadium and at the stroke of midnight they'll become infected with the infested, giving the infestation the massive boost in biomass it needs to become virtually unstoppable

[frail flower]

just checked the demo
seems they simply use their code names online i think

and about your theory i think you might be right since well
the hollovania seems to be where the "super secret show" was going to happen
imagine how much people would had been there knowing how many fans boybands usually have

[nocturne kiln]

Oh, Include international fans in that

A huge number

[nocturne kiln]

It's not secret. That's where thier world tour was going to start. It's the big opening show

[frail flower]

huh my bad maybe the fan page hyped it up a bit much

[nocturne kiln]

One sec

[frail flower]

but yeah i do remembering that the pizza commercial said something similar

btw i loved all the fake commercials they made for the last 2 tennocons they are so good

also i love to imagine that the "death mark of the stalker" is an actual horror movie released in or arround 1999

[nocturne kiln]

Oh man... there's some paragraphs about the bands starting so g that goes on to me tonight that party of thier lifetime is a double platinum hit and thier world tour will start in hollvania. I just can't find it!

I think it's in the groups description on one of the music websites they posted Party of Your Lifetime to

[frail flower]

imma check

[nocturne kiln]

But good luck finding anything other than that song when you type it into google

[nocturne kiln]

Found it!!!!!

[frail flower]

o?

[nocturne kiln]

It's someone else's screenshot though...

[frail flower]

ok so running late is their hit debut single that put them in the public eye and later party of your life time became their most famous song

also found the description in spotify

[nocturne kiln]

Okay okay okay. Just glad I'm not crazy

[frail flower]

we are all crazy in some way :3

[nocturne kiln]

Now, the infested could have the "secret show" planned to get everyone to the venue before the scheduled date, since the "show" infesting will happen at midnight. Kind of an odd thing to do and it gets rid of DE modeling any children that might have otherwise been there

[frail flower]

if we get to see the incident.... witch would be interesting

[nocturne kiln]

That's assu.ing we get to the concert in time... don't be late

Speaking of which

[frail flower]

yeah

[nocturne kiln]

When we first see arthur

I don't think that was entrati

I think that was the other

[frail flower]

loid said it
albrecht never smiles
and if he did
not like that

[nocturne kiln]

If you immediately turn around as Arthur as soon as youre in control of him, and crouch though a train door window, you will see the operator version of wally

[frail flower]

yeah i found them from my curiousity

[nocturne kiln]

Yeah. He's there and manifested

[frail flower]

also im still confused on wall-e saying "we end as we began" i've seen the codex entries of entrati
that he means it more like "i screwed up so imma gonna fix it until it is the same as before"
but.... what would be the "began" state- ohhhhhhh
getting his digits back

yeah just realized while writing this down

[nocturne kiln]

Its... philisophical

We come into the world from unlife. Into unlife we return. All success at some point will cease meaning. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. It's likely an orokin saying than one albrecht came up with. Could possibly be about transference too

You may as well just be saying a rather dramatic "and so we come full circle"

[frail flower]

yeah and i think it does have some legitimate meaning as albrecht clearly wants to go back before he sent himself to the void by any costs the future be dammed (since changing the past changes the present/future in real time like we've seen with the coda/infested liches that just appeared out of seemingly nowhere after arthur in the past failed the snake minigame)

and like fibo said So long as the Indifference is missing a digit, it is confined to the strands of Khra.

so wally wants to get his digits back so he wants to "end as they began"

[nocturne kiln]

Albrecht has become obsessed with his mistake. In his mind he must put it to rights. That he is the only one who understands the situation at hand enough to properly do so. And now he has a timelimit as he dares not use transference again given he knows not if he is the Other pretending to be him. One lifetime, already half spent ad he had an adult body. Even with lengthening his lifetime through orokin techniques and sciencr.... will it be enough? Only absolute paranoia will keep him sufficiently focused. It's no longer just insanity but necessity, as he finds himself on a path that goes along the razors edge of genius and madness

We end as we began

Either albrecht will finish shutting the entity out or he will be the one to let him in in attempting to do so

[frail flower]

god i love warframe lore

and all of this existencial dread while a boyband of 5 infested starts singing like the backstreed boys / one direction

[nocturne kiln]

Have you noticed yet?

[frail flower]

?

[nocturne kiln]

Thier earworm
Festering in your brain
You willingly listen as... it does whatever it was programmed to do

[frail flower]

OH YEAH I FORGOT THAT

[nocturne kiln]

Now you're infvested

[frail flower]

sun-arse....
eh welp was a good run
wish for me to become a warframe lol

[nocturne kiln]

Well, according to albrechts notes, that's just what happened

To some he found that is

They needed the helminth strain

[frail flower]

the only question i have
was the tech-rot intentional? or was it a sample that managed to escape albrecht?
because he never said that he let an entire city become infested just arthur and the protoframes to become the vessels using the helminth strain

[nocturne kiln]

I have a question. If albrechts work on the protoframs happened when he went to 1999... how are his notes in his labratory?

[frail flower]

i mean.... he may have made them before he ordered loid to strand him in 1999

[nocturne kiln]

The tech rot was intentional but by the other, not albrecht

[frail flower]

was gonna say that
the eye imagery reminds me of the indifference when there's an eye in a wall

[nocturne kiln]

Exactly. That he sees all

Well, also...
Entrat-eye

Might be the phonetic way the orokin say thier name

[frail flower]

i see...

honestly im waitin on a meme edit that every time they say entrati they make it entra🇪

[nocturne kiln]

Not the markiplier meme

[frail flower]

yes the markiplier meme >:3

[nocturne kiln]

Yes I know the markiplier meme...

WHO LIVES ON DREWRY LANE?!

[frail flower]

lol

[nocturne kiln]

So

The hex

Pretty sure it's just meant to mean six

But one thinks to then other meaning. Of witch craft

[supple dagger]

Is Steel Path and Arbitrations just a fake scenario set up by Teshin and the Arbiters? They both seem to act like this is more of a "test" than an actual threat?
Like, Im pretty certain Arbitrations arent ACTUALLY something that threatens the system. The Arbiters are just setting it up to test the Tenno.

[undone lodge]

Yeah with it being Warframe and especially the content 1999 is coming after it probably has something to do with that meaning too, even if just superficially

[nocturne kiln]

My mind goes to Elenor

Particularlly supernatural vibes

[undone lodge]

I wonder if she’s gonna give Wally another name

[nocturne kiln]

Manny

[nova harness]

Wall of bone awaits her calling

Though recently he seems to look like an old man

[nocturne kiln]

The triple faced goddess will show the way in August

[fiery kettle]

when she said triple faced goddess i thought she meant the pagan goddess

now i see that she meant the lotus

[zenith jacinth]

Arbitrations yes, steel path is probably real

[open vault]

Just finished Angels of the Zariman. Void Cascade part was so annoying

[visual shoal]

Best farming method to get resources, arcanes, bps etc. 😄

[nimble sparrow]

Where the hell can I get more songs like "Party of your lifetime", the 1999 theme song? 'Cause that song is so good.

[wicked iron]

Just go to youtube and look up N'Sync, Backstreet Boys, and whoever else you can think of from then. 😄

I hope they give us a full album from On-Lyne, honestly lol

[nimble sparrow]

Dude, that would be amazing!

[solemn cloud]

By 1999 Theme Song, do you mean the one that played during the Whispers in the Walls quest? Or the one of the other songs from the 1999 demo?

[nimble sparrow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtF6jiLxc88 This guy

[solemn cloud]

Oh I see - I thought you meant Party of Your Lifetime AND a theme song, not Party of Your Lifetime IS the theme song.

My bad!

[nimble sparrow]

well, tbh i see party of your lifetime as the theme song 🤦🏻‍♂️

[solemn cloud]

It's not difficult why. It's everywhere during that demo.

[nocturne kiln]

pft!

2022 XD

See you all in 2023!!

We travelin' back in time for real!!

[nocturne kiln]

Into the void by nine inch nails will always be the theme to me due to it being the introduction song

untill they come out with an official one

[fading current]

Y’all….this event was so freaking fun. I met so many Tenno new and old, grouped up with them all, role played at the pizza place. It was sooooo fun. Nothing to do except chat, dance, and meet the characters of the Hex syndicate. And it was PERFECT. Everyone was so damn kind. I love this community so much.

[frail flower]

hahahah DE typo

[frail flower]

saaaaaame

[violet junco]

Would've been better if the "See you in" was 1999

[frail flower]

also because a lot of the lyrics kinda fit the situation with wally

"trying to save myself but myself keep slipping away"

as a highlight

[frail flower]

khal would be proud of this brotherhood-

[nocturne kiln]

Now, if only people could hang out in the other hubs the same way.

[ember mulch]

NIN also released the song in 1999 (i think? Fact checking momentarily)

[frail flower]

i think it did

[fading current]

Right?!?!

[ember mulch]

yeah it was

[frail flower]

guessed so
cuz someone made a meme that allstar could had been a possible song to put since it was released in 1999 and de searched for a song with that requierement

[ember mulch]

it really does coincide with the 1999 setting a lot

(not to mention the literal train beginning)

[frail flower]

"Talking to myself all the way to the station
Pictures in my head of the final destination (both train lines)
All lined up, all the ones that aren't allowed to stay (this line could reference on how the operator is late and cant stay in this moment of 1999 but i think im stretching it)
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away" (clearly focuses on either the operator's or the thing that we've seen this latest demo)

[ember mulch]

after a bunch of 'woahoahohs'
"Tried to save a place from the cuts and the scratches
Tried to overcome my complications and my catches
Nothing ever grows, and the sun doesn't shine all day
[...]"

first line = fights fights fights technocyte battling

third line reminds me of how cloudy the sky is in 1999

People do talk about it (Sol) but i dont think weve actually seen it within 1999-world

[frail flower]

1st line could be a reference to how agressive the infestation/tech-rot is and also fighting yes
2nd line could be the hex's anger towards big al
and 3rd yeah i agree on the sky thing they do call it sol (witch is kinda funny that instead of sun they use the spanish version of that word most of the time)
and the skybox that was on the mall and the demo match 1 to 1, i even think its snowing a bit since one of the broken windows dropped what looked like snowflakes

but it is most possibly just white infestation spores

[ember mulch]

aw the technocyte got dandruff

[frail flower]

lol

tho in lore... it is winter in what looks like an european part of earth

witch would fit if they are in new year's eve

[ember mulch]

So realistically we could expect to spend a few months ingame to solve fhe 1999 crisis

[frail flower]

if it can be solved-

[ember mulch]

slap wally around and not turn that frown upside down

[frail flower]

my wish is for a mech/ultraman v kaiju fight against wally

[ember mulch]

we have the vessels

[frail flower]

exactly

new operator beam be like:

https://tenor.com/view/ultraman-trigger-ultraman-trigger-ultraman-trigger-new-generation-tiga-new-generation-tiga-gif-22784029

[ember mulch]

Though remember that the indifference are based on a poem about the opposite of emotions being indifference

Also with the ending of whispers

We either beat wally by:

[frail flower]

yeah make love not war

[ember mulch]

A. Power of love and friendship by befriending (and dating) the hex

B. wally is dating endgame (this is the most egregious thing i have considered typing)

[frail flower]

theres... also the issue of.... what is the real size of wally

imma see if i can get a screenshot-
ayo dating an eldrich horror sing me up/jk

[ember mulch]

we probably will at least weaken wally by using the power of friendship and emotion

[thick jolt]

I think its far too early in the arc

[frail flower]

that too

[thick jolt]

We are probably still in the trying to figure out what is happening phase

[frail flower]

this might be not a "new war" like event

this is probably closer to the sacrifice or some quests before that

[ember mulch]

I expect we do stop wally at least from possessing dr. entrati

[frail flower]

tbh wally or not i want to be given the option to slap entrari-

like
he's trying but
DUDE

[frail flower]

here it is...

as we can see.... HE CAN BE BIG

a lot more than the vessels

this is more visible

this looks like his legs in the vitruvian form ..... but maybe could be a hand without a thumb (this second one less likely since weve seen that wally only lost his index finger.... i think

[zenith jacinth]

I* think* one of the vitruvian hands was missing a thumb

Oh really discord? A space breaks that?

[frail flower]

lol

but yeah...

[zenith jacinth]

I'm just gonna leave it like that

[frail flower]

wait

pointing finger not index

[zenith jacinth]

Pointing is index

[frail flower]

lol bad english strikes again

also seems to be consistent with other forms of wally (including his duviri one)

[zenith jacinth]

Thumb, index, middle, ring, pinky

[zenith jacinth]

I completely forgot about duviri wally

[frail flower]

murmur seems to be the only ones where the missing finger isnt shown

[thick jolt]

Kinda funny the middle finger is the one with an uncreative name

Kinda feels like being a middle child

[frail flower]

trueeee

jsut a random thought i just had
ordis seems to confirm that not all tenno (in lore) have an ordis cephalon... witch makes me imagine...
how many cephalons are there?
does every operator have their own unique one?
since they seem important for the orbiter to function

[ember mulch]

I dont think all operators have a cephalon

Its just that ordis was a cephalon who (as punishment) had his anger and hatred discarded to care for (our) tenno

[zenith jacinth]

We have the only ordis cephalon

[ember mulch]

We technically have two if you consider Cy

[frail flower]

true

cy has a crew before the player operator

[ember mulch]

On other cephalons, suda and simaris in the relays

The 3(?) conclave ones

[frail flower]

there are conclave ones?

[solemn cloud]

I think there's a gameplay conceit that causes some confusion - namely that most of the story quests are extremely personal, placing the player as the single "main character" of a massive operatic narrative - and this actually conflicts with how the game and some of the early lore freely recognizes all the players as unique Tenno.

Because of this there is a certain leniency you have to give a lot of the lore put into the game before the main story quests were introduced.

[frail flower]

ohhh like referees? i see

[zenith jacinth]

They also work for anyo's index iirc

[frail flower]

yeah i like that one

[ember mulch]

Isnt our glassed glassmaker technically a cephalon

[zenith jacinth]

Yes

[frail flower]

he is yes

[zenith jacinth]

Luckily not connected to the weave it seems

[ember mulch]

Ok so we have 3 cephalons, ordis for everything orbiter and etc, Cy for railjack, nihil for bullying

Ooh wait otak was a cephalon once wasnt he

[frail flower]

nihil "ill escape"
operator "ok boomer(or orokin said in the same tone)-"

[zenith jacinth]

Otak is a cephalon and so is necraloid

[frail flower]

just like post new war ordis they have a robotic body yeah

[ember mulch]

What about leverian's drusus

[zenith jacinth]

Solaris

[frail flower]

i think he is one aswell

just that unliike many cephalon he willingly became one to take care of his leverian

[ember mulch]

Same with simaris and suda for their own purposes

[zenith jacinth]

Drusus is with 99% certainty a solaris

He has donation dialogue where he mentions buying back his body iirc

[ember mulch]

Dont think so, normal loid talks about drusus as an archimedian

[frail flower]

i prefrer drus than sola

all the times he said SANCTUARY makes me crazy

[balmy storm]

That’s cause he’s a cephalon

[zenith jacinth]

Why would he want/need to buy back his body

[balmy storm]

I doubt he’s a solaris, he was around during the warframe insurrections, so I doubt he’d be a solaris

[ember mulch]

oh cant forget about jordas and the riven cephalon whos name i did forget sorry

[balmy storm]

Because he doesn’t have it anymore?
He wants it back so nobody else can have it

[zenith jacinth]

Samodeus

Right? I forgor

[ember mulch]

Think it is that

[frail flower]

i mean

[balmy storm]

If he was a solaris he’d be really really old lmao

[frail flower]

hm

[ember mulch]

Gonna cheat and check the wiki for more cephs

AHA the zariman cephalon, Melica

[frail flower]

k

[ember mulch]

Doesnt melica have dementia or something

[zenith jacinth]

john disapproves of wiki use for lore

[ember mulch]

Nuh uh just names

[balmy storm]

She’s damaged, yes

[zenith jacinth]

Damaged from the failed void jump

[ember mulch]

found another cephalon to the count

[zenith jacinth]

Melica mentions another ceph in a dialogue

[ember mulch]

Ok so confirming there are 3 conclave cephalons, apnar, sark and vull

[balmy storm]

The Zariman glassed people who misbehaved, they had a lot of cephalons, a majority unnamed

[zenith jacinth]

Melica mentions a teacher ceph by name

[ember mulch]

Makes sense that theres more than one teaching ceph with all the children

[zenith jacinth]

Seemingly one per class

[frail flower]

me who just used wiki to get the duviri wally screenshot:

[ember mulch]

? Theres apparently a cephalon cordylon

[frail flower]

https://tenor.com/view/yikes-monkey-look-and-leave-yikes-monkey-look-and-leave-gif-14895670

[zenith jacinth]

The lost cephalon

[ember mulch]

cordylon's job is...

[zenith jacinth]

We miss cordylon

[ember mulch]

oh cordylons retired

[frail flower]

and my mind changed to another topic...

since the proto frames will be able to access normal warframe missions.... they could also meet the syndicates....
Arthur" the hell you mean by sho lah?"

[graceful zodiac]

I suppose anywhere you can use an emote would count

[ember mulch]

lol imagine the hex meeting fortuna's people and getting scared by their faces in where their stomach should be

or meeting dr. entrati's family

[frail flower]

aoi and lil duck ethier become besties or enemies

[ember mulch]

aoi accidentally metal bending the people:

[frail flower]

YAH lol
eudico "what are you doing?!"
aoi "what i was bored"
random solaris screaming

[undone lodge]

The Hex finding out we’re friends with a gang of orphans living in vent shafts:

[frail flower]

amir would beg for a k drive

[thick jolt]

Amir blowing their minds with 1999 arcade games

[frail flower]

yee

[ember mulch]

Amir recieving the forbidden technique: you got games on your phone?

[frail flower]

oh gods

[undone lodge]

Oh god

[ember mulch]

quincy could prob become bros with father entrati

gun bonding

(rude zuud too)

[frail flower]

amir wouldnt stop playing on the ludoplex

[frail flower]

and cavalero

[chilly pine]

quincy and cavalero, youd never be able to seperate the two

[thick jolt]

They really will have to do quite the character development wizardry for me to find quincy bearable

[ember mulch]

idk quincy sounds most likely to either defect or fully frame first

[frail flower]

true

[ember mulch]

that or let quincy be the gun vendor so we get guns guns guns

[frail flower]

tho i think he might been tricked into becoming a proto frame

[chilly pine]

quincy or eleanor i can see being the first to go full warframe, as for splitting off/defecting, amir seems likely

[frail flower]

OUGH just the membered the mind hug amir asked for-

[ember mulch]

quincy seems like a buddy-rival to arthur

[frail flower]

yeah

[ember mulch]

tells him to park his bike somewhere else and also invites him to a new years party lol

[frail flower]

i mean he got arthur to say his true feelings of annoyance for not finding his keys by pointing his gun

[ember mulch]

if anything the first person to murder a fellow hex member would be leticia/lettie/prototrinity

[frail flower]

nah aoi

[ember mulch]

quincy being the victim most likely

[frail flower]

that yeah

[ember mulch]

Lol whos most likely to die first?
Eleanor from fully framing
Or quincy from the medic being a realistic gaming medic

[frail flower]

tho im pretty sure that big al made sure they wouldnt go fully warframe

[ember mulch]

hes unsure how long that would last

[frail flower]

ahh i see

[ember mulch]

at least arthur and aoi get far, the others we dont know

[frail flower]

then again i think the infection/tech-rot would get them first before that happens... since 1999 only occurs in new year's eve

[rain otter]

Cavalero's gun autism is so great it leaked into Duviri and that's why we have incarnons cuz he was thinking how to improve those guns.

This is Canon btw. Not that wording exactly but it is cannon.

[frail flower]

cannon or not i love it

[rain otter]

It is though it's so funny.

[frail flower]

warframe being this silly and serous at the same time is so good

[rain otter]

We had a Autistic kid hold down a cosmic horror for over 1000 years by himself.

[frail flower]

rip rell-

[nocturne kiln]

It was framed as being an alternative cure. Very possible

That said, they all seem to believe they are living on borrowed time

One could look at it as the infection has spread to the upper neck

Once the head goes, so does your mind

I have a closet theory that we find Quincy back in the origin system our time, but he's fully become Cyte-09

[frail flower]

hm interesting

i do wonder how will cyte 09 will manifest...

we'll need to get the warframe parts somehow

[winter sparrow]

It’d be kinda messed up if they put those warframe parts in a shop from Quincy

[frail flower]

quincy "alright here you go"
operator "wha... how did you-"
quincy "its better if we both dont ask

[winter sparrow]

Maybe the uh I forgot what they’re called but the grineer like people in 1999 would have cyte’s parts like from the boss lady

Which would also be f’ed up but less so from Quincy

[frail flower]

tbh... i also have a small theory...

[winter sparrow]

Time travel shenanigans the coda have cyte’s parts somehow

That’s be a bit funny as a crack idea

[frail flower]

this excalibur isnt the player

[winter sparrow]

I love your idea

Helminth already spitting out copies of warframes

[frail flower]

basically in 1999 there are both warframes and protoframes

[winter sparrow]

Cause that excal came outta a suspiciously similar mouth flower

[frail flower]

yeah

we were just talking that protoframes are only proto for a limited time

what happens if that time runs up

thats why they arent called arthur proto frame excalibur
they are called arthur Batch excalibur
meaning there can be multiple proto frames that are in the excalibur batch

[winter sparrow]

[nocturne kiln]

Rebecca already confirmed it is

[frail flower]

oh-

F

[fierce summit]

But it almost certainly is. When you watch the demo, there is a “This Is What You Are” stinger that plays right after the Excalibur drops out of the proto-Helminth, and then Arthur very deliberately uses the word “devils” to describe it.

[nocturne kiln]

She says the camera shifts

[winter sparrow]

I love pondering this branch in the timeline though

[fierce summit]

The bit with the crossing swords just won’t happen in the quest proper

[frail flower]

i still think there are multiple protoframes in the same Batch

[winter sparrow]

Knowing the orokin and entrati it does seem most likely that there would be multiple people

“Just in case”

[frail flower]

yeah

[nocturne kiln]

It's the player, it just may not be our excaliber. Gotta transference In somehow

[frail flower]

that i understand now

[fierce summit]

Stock Excalibur is also the default Warframe used in demos

[frail flower]

true

[winter sparrow]

Kinda like the warframes/guns/archguns in duviri

[nocturne kiln]

I love my default boy!

[frail flower]

same

[nocturne kiln]

Poster child! Golden child syndrome is real!

[frail flower]

i mean
we only got one umbra-

[winter sparrow]

I haven’t played much of excal but umbras story is so sad :(

[frail flower]

its just ballas being a crybaby that a dax has been exposing him.... as usual

[nocturne kiln]

One umbra and no primes

[frail flower]

if you arent a founder-

[winter sparrow]

Well excal had a prime but it was for founders

You can see it when opening orokin vaults on Deimos :)

[nocturne kiln]

I know. I still hate digital scarcity. Fomo of digitital items angers me

[frail flower]

ehhh it was only done once so i dont really mind
but would be neat to have him back

[winter sparrow]

The dragon key vaults idk why I called them orokin vaults

[nocturne kiln]

Four words: Heirloom mag and frost

[frail flower]

ok i forgot about those two-

[nocturne kiln]

I'll be honest though

...I just want the helmet

That's it

[rain otter]

They aren't digitally scare anymore.

That was changed.

[winter sparrow]

Oh?

[nocturne kiln]

Oh, so they made more?

[frail flower]

same i want key face on umbra.

[rain otter]

I mean did you read the posts about how they are gonna do heirlooms. You will just be able to get them cuz they are doing rotation stuff and you will be able to get them with Plat.

They explain it when they talked about the new ember one.

[frail flower]

oh so like prime resurgance

[winter sparrow]

That’s nice that they’d be available at some point

[rain otter]

I swear I'm the only one that reads the patch notes and announcements.

You can get ember heirloom with just Plat if you want.

[frail flower]

true

tho ill probably pay for the full thing + extra plat since where i live its better than buying plat directly

[scarlet basalt]

Is it known if Arthur smoke ?

[frail flower]

not really

[ember mulch]

no

Is this to do with the bikes or excalibur zato

[frail flower]

i bet he does tho

[ember mulch]

if arthur was modelled after excal zato rather than og excal he'd be a chainsmoker

[scarlet basalt]

Man got smoking issue without smoking

Stop coughing, there's no Black plague dude

[ember mulch]

idk the technocyte asbestos seems bad

[winter sparrow]

Man’s got the techrot give em a break

[ember mulch]

*don't forget arthur's 2 occurences of falling down

[winter sparrow]

My boi’s probs broke a hip

[ember mulch]

very important to know he falls down too much

[frail flower]

.... do you guys think we'll ever get like... an exalted necramech and or atomicycle?

[ember mulch]

when dagath gets exalted horse augument

[frail flower]

imagine yeah

[winter sparrow]

No wonder Lettie’s like that she gotta deal with Arthur “if I haven’t fallen 30 times today then the days not over yet” nightingale

[ember mulch]

Its in the nightingale genes to fall badly, look at eleanor on the couch, clearly she fell down the stairs

[winter sparrow]

[frail flower]

she said "ayo the pizza here-"

[nocturne kiln]

Specifically excluding frost and mag though

[frail flower]

https://tenor.com/view/ayo-the-pizza-here-gif-19682232

[ember mulch]

remember to put primed surefooted on your excalibur or nyx when you get their geminis

[nocturne kiln]

Nah. Absorption on nyx. You'll be fine

[frail flower]

will make sure

[nocturne kiln]

I don't get the hype for primed surefooted

[frail flower]

oh god im freaking dying XD

[ember mulch]

i dont use it bc i dont have it
but uh if you dont fall down you save ~1 sec of mission time woo?

[winter sparrow]

Max primed sure footed is 100% knockdown resist

[ember mulch]

(that or a heavy gunner combowomboed you to stunlock hell)

[winter sparrow]

I have it on my steel path inaros build

[nocturne kiln]

More of a power drift man myself

[winter sparrow]

It simply boils down to preferred gameplay

[nocturne kiln]

I just don't get knocked down enough to care

[ember mulch]

mm delicious +15% str

[rain otter]

I feel like you didn't read the post they did originally.

[ember mulch]

had a thought

arthur collapses infront of the escalator in whispers

[rain otter]

I mean overguard also stops knockdowns.

[nocturne kiln]

They changed it from last time I read

I'm glad it's not the case

[rain otter]

Or unari.

[ember mulch]

if arthur tried to go up the escalators would his falling genes kick in and prevent him from progressing gameplay

[rain otter]

Also most people like it to stop self knockdown.

From aoe weapons.

[frail flower]

he just has a invisible wall

[ember mulch]

now that i think about it arthur falls down 3 scripted times actually (unacceptable)

very severe vertigo

[frail flower]

lol imagine scriptedly he falls exactly 1999 times

in the quest

[ember mulch]

The only way to stop him from falling is to make him fall one last time for the drifter

[frail flower]

lol

[ember mulch]

nah its arthur and aoi

[frail flower]

yeah i mean he did want some time alone with her

"One day, Aoi. No more roadblocks and checkpoints. Just you and me and the bikes, open road for miles, all this bullshit far away. I swear to Sol."

also he cares for amir
"Well, Amir's still alive. That's a win."

and about amir im gonna just put my favourite quote of him
"Eleanor? Are you there? Can you - can you give my brain a hug please? Thank you."

jsut

i wanna give him a genuine hug

[nova harness]

"We need to keep Lettie on her feet. If she goes, we all go."

Arthur cares for then all probably

[wise solstice]

Arthur be like

[frail flower]

no that was elanor with the nightgale genes
thats the reason for she's on a couch

[wise solstice]

Oh lol

[frail flower]

she said ayo the pizza here and it was over 😔

[wise solstice]

Fr

[wise solstice]

Brain fart, nighgale?

[frail flower]

more like my "english not being my first language" genes acting up

lol

[wise solstice]

Oh

[nova harness]

Some Warframe players make me want a brain hug

[wise solstice]

I forgot what nighgale is

[frail flower]

fixed my typo

[wise solstice]

Real

Ohh

[frail flower]

hell humans make me want a brain hug

[frail flower]

oh thats the surname of arthor and elanor since they are siblings

ARTHUR

ok at this point my fingers are just dumb

[zenith jacinth]

Arthur rdr nightingale

[wise solstice]

"ARRRTHURR! DID I JUST HEAR YOU COMMITTED TAX E-VASION?"
-Dutch van der line

[nova harness]

Excalibur and Nyx being siblings makes perfect sense due to the original plan for frames

[zenith jacinth]

And is probably why they did that

[frail flower]

yah

[balmy storm]

Also the dark sector reference

[wise solstice]

Hey lil duck

[balmy storm]

Hello

[nova harness]

Were they siblings in DS

[zenith jacinth]

Do the gemini thingies use any equipped frame skins?

[wise solstice]

How's your stomachfa- I mean stomachf- I mean… uh.

[balmy storm]

No, but the only “frames” in that game were them so they’re like sorta siblings in that way

[zenith jacinth]

Main character and main antagonist

[balmy storm]

My head is feeling fine

[wise solstice]

Mk

[balmy storm]

The gemini skins will be able to use any skins, heirloom, deluxe, tennogen, all

[frail flower]

was gonna ask that
probably the protoframes heads cant be changed
but i wonder if you can like
give arthur the umbra body

[nova harness]

Prime?

[wise solstice]

That’d be funny

[zenith jacinth]

Jetstream sam cosplays are gonna get an upgrade

[nocturne kiln]

"Guy? It won't be like last time, I promise!"

[wise solstice]

Real

[balmy storm]

I assume so, depends how the gemini skins work

[frail flower]

REAL

[wise solstice]

Excuse me sir… are you my operator?

[nocturne kiln]

Nah. I'm making Arthur into Hayden. I'm putting the suit back on.

[balmy storm]

If they’re something you have to commit to a frame then I’d assume primes and umbra will work, if they’re just unlockable secondary skins for the frame then any frame of that type should be able to use them

[frail flower]

q u e

[wise solstice]

We said real at the same time

[zenith jacinth]

I was gonna prepare one for 1999 but then I realized that I don't have the skin on my current account

[nova harness]

I wanna see Mesa vs Cyte

[wise solstice]

This damn winter?

[balmy storm]

I kinda hope we’ll be able to customize the protos hair via the gemini skins but we’ll see
Probably not though

[zenith jacinth]

Not even close to the same time

[wise solstice]

It was tho

[zenith jacinth]

Same skin

[balmy storm]

Which gemini skin are you all gonna get/customize first?
I’m goin’ with Nyx/Eleanor

[wise solstice]

Arthur Morgan

I mean Arthur Calihan

[wise solstice]

I mean Arthur

[frail flower]

amir aoi and arthur

[open vault]

Jade Shadows was great. Papa Stalker 🥰🥺🥺

[wise solstice]

Duck was typing at the same time 😭

[zenith jacinth]

Any that I have

[frail flower]

sometimes it happens

[balmy storm]

Valid lol

[wise solstice]

You have them?

🤯🤯

[zenith jacinth]

Of the frames

Big brain

[wise solstice]

Fair

[balmy storm]

So glad I kept my Nyx
She is wonderful

[zenith jacinth]

How many of them do I even have...

[frail flower]

god i might be able to make amir a lime green tf2 scout-

[wise solstice]

But Aoi though…

[zenith jacinth]

1. Excal

[balmy storm]

In gameplay at least Eleanor may be the strongest if she can use her augment
But also idk everything you can do with the others so I’m maybe wrong

[frail flower]

peak cinema warframe ya

[wise solstice]

Real

[open vault]

Ong

[wise solstice]

Watch the trailer for the first mission

[balmy storm]

I love the contractions/birthing rhythm game

[zenith jacinth]

I have two umbras do I count arthur twice

[nova harness]

Romanedy

[balmy storm]

how do you have 2 umbras

[wise solstice]

How

[zenith jacinth]

Account merge

[frail flower]

HUH-

[open vault]

Im so gonna grind Ascension, need that pregframe

[balmy storm]

Okay, that’s pretty cool 👀

[zenith jacinth]

It's really annoying to tell the difference

[open vault]

That was...wild

[balmy storm]

It sure was a thing that happened

[nova harness]

So many people hate that quest

[zenith jacinth]

One of them is worse in every way but frame

[frail flower]

wait...

do 2 of the same frame share the customization sets?

[zenith jacinth]

I'm gonna have to throw a lens at the better one to make him easier to identify

[zenith jacinth]

No

[frail flower]

have one be normal excal as its main customization

it should show differently

i think

[nova harness]

I hope DE will one day allow us to unequip all lenses

[zenith jacinth]

Both have cool stuff on each slot and I don't want to ruin them

[frail flower]

ooooh oof

[zenith jacinth]

Wait one has dex equipped in one slot

[frail flower]

oh you can swap it

[zenith jacinth]

Yes

[frail flower]

les gooo

it should change the icon

[zenith jacinth]

I'll do that... if I want to use umbra again

[frail flower]

k

[zenith jacinth]

Probably meaning some time next year

[frail flower]

fair

[open vault]

I dont get it tbh

[nocturne kiln]

I really hope someone makes headphones for the 1999 tennogen. Maybe one with a mic for boyband cosplay

[balmy storm]

Same, that and sunglasses

[nocturne kiln]

There's some shuttershades but... idk. I never saw the appeal of them

not even in the 90s

like... you could see through sunglasses and then... you decided window blinds were better? You cant even see through the slats themselves

[fiery kettle]

they know about him

[nocturne kiln]

We could get some 90's military accessories slipped in. mouthpiece mics, maybe a billed hat...

[balmy storm]

I think a hat would count as a “hood” so I don’t think we’d see that ):

Tennogen operator/drifter suits when

[nocturne kiln]

yeah, not a lot of "90s" accessories unless you go for more "equipment" type gagets

I'd love a pair of these

[solemn cloud]

Right? This pic alone suggests we very well might.

Calling it now, but I think this pic is an Easter egg meant to tease future cosmetics for our Drifter.

[nocturne kiln]

if it had a microphone extended from it, it'd be an instant purchase

for me at least

[tawdry socket]

that style of on-ears hurts me ngl

[nocturne kiln]

Agreed but... you know, for cosmetic purposes they're fine

right?

[solemn cloud]

Not really like you will be wearing them IRL

And they do fit the 90s aesthetic

[nocturne kiln]

something like these is what I want for operator accessories. very tactical

old walkman headsets

or how they had for sports coaches

or the old radio headphones

I know, going heavy on the immages. ill stop now

but seriously though

[fierce summit]

Wait I haven't seen this one before where'd you find the box?
Also cool it's also ZRBHZ brand just like the other Music Device (tm)

[nocturne kiln]

Aha! So its not a box. it was a poster. if you wer facing with your back to Aoi, it'd be to the right of the door across from her

[fierce summit]

Ah; that's how I missed it. I didn't sniff around inside Tech Titan anywhere near as much as I should have

[nocturne kiln]

I have all sorts of text from taking pictures of the mall (ended up with 99 of them ironically) so I could practice translating them

[fierce summit]

It took until one of the last days for me to realize that there are two of Lettie's mice building a tiny card tower on one of the shelves

[nocturne kiln]

Ill probably start translating 2 or 3 a day sometimne soon. Ill post my translations here so others can correct me and help me learn

[nocturne kiln]

didnt see that. ill have to look again in december

It's why Aoi has that line about Lettie keeping her mice out of Aoi's stuff

[balmy storm]

I love ancestral pobbers

[balmy storm]

I love them

[amber terrace]

Who’s more goated; Cavalero or Yonta?

They both have amazing personalities and are pretty easy on the eyes so I’m at a loss

[balmy storm]

Yonta

[nocturne kiln]

Little duck

[wise solstice]

Can we just drink some wine and chill? I mean sounds like something lil duck would do with drifter since he’s old enough

[balmy storm]

👁️

[wise solstice]

I feel like as long as anything is chill with lil duck and is trusted, lil duck would hang out with them

Even if they’re infested but chill (maybe)

Like nidus

[nocturne kiln]

Wine? Nah. they only have moonshine in fortuna

[wise solstice]

I can bring wine

From earth

That easy

“Hey duck, wanna get romantic but stay friends? Drink red wine with me! Makes us look like we’re together… we’re not a thing, I prefer wisp.”

-my drifter if he was my noncannon oc

(Yes he’d be weird like that)

My operator would be so innocent

Like the crazy person type of innocent

[nocturne kiln]

I dont know why you think comparing a woman to another woman and stating you like the other woman more will get the first woman to do something

[wise solstice]

My drifter*

I wouldn’t, as I said

It’s my oc, not me

“Last 3 guys that stuck a sword in my chest ended up getting tortured mentally or physically... Hehehehe… wanna be number 4?”
-my operator if he was my oc

[nocturne kiln]

You cant write for someone without those kind of words occuring to you

[wise solstice]

Listen

[nocturne kiln]

[wise solstice]

I attempt voice acting (very bad at it) and I wanna be an actor for videogames or smth like that

So characters I make are NOT based off me

[nocturne kiln]

I didnt say that. I just said you thought up saying what your character says

[wise solstice]

Fair

Also

[nocturne kiln]

[wise solstice]

Lore on the bear pfp?

[nocturne kiln]

I had a bear pfp before this. I found a picture of one in a suit. I thought it would be a better pfp

🐻

[wise solstice]

Nice

What about your user

Ex Yba player? (Joking)

[nocturne kiln]

Beforethis I was Trenchcoat J because my dad gave me his coat. Before that I was SpdyI3ullet on xbox. I grew up and became less cringe. Also my name is jo and I like finding obscure things in videogames

Fair but

[nocturne kiln]

You just havent realized its the infection vector

its in your head and you're willingly listening as it does whatever it wants inside that brain of yours

Have you ever heard of something called the Markers in Dead Space?

Man, this is some good On-lyne music, isnt it?

Hey, no, what are you doing? Come back and listen some more man

Keep it playing

QuickFire. Play the Song.

[wise solstice]

Hey, vsauce, Michael here... Where are your fingers?

[nocturne kiln]

Okay, time to start translating. Perhaps others will correct me, as the letters used dont always make sense to me

Includied the phonetics in red, green is my attempt to translate

[wise solstice]

Yareli has a male operator

[cursive oxide]

Ah

[lilac umbra]

Interesting

[cursive oxide]

Alr?

[wise solstice]

Cannonly

Like the yareli you see in the books

The original

[cursive oxide]

Ill take a look tomorrow

[plain onyx]

Soo guys, looking at the tennocon 2024, this whole "boyband concert thingy"

What the hell is that all about??

And apparently those infested thingies are called the infested liches?? And they're the SAME dudes as in the "boyband" thingy??

I don't think i understand wtf is going on in the end of the showcase

[wise solstice]

They're basically kuva lich

But for infested

All you need to knoe

[plain onyx]

So all 3 factions are complete for the liches

[wise solstice]

Can't wait for Sentient lich

[plain onyx]

Yeah well, infested liches, where the hell did they come from?

[wise solstice]

1999

[plain onyx]

Did the dudes at the "boyband thingy" create those things??

[wise solstice]

They prolly ₳ⱤɆ ₮ⱧɆ₥

Ahem

[plain onyx]

And what, are they gonna have somehow the ability to time travel into the present timeline of warframe, the same time where grineer and corpus liches both exists at the same time??

[wise solstice]

Eh

It's more like we dont know how but prolly big Al's doing

[plain onyx]

Wait so, instead of the usual, killing murmurs like for the grineer and corpus to create a lich, in the infested liches case, it's not random?

[plain onyx]

Big al? Alad V?

[wise solstice]

No

Albrecht

Alad is not big al

[plain onyx]

Yeah when was alad v ever that relevant lmao

[wise solstice]

Exactly

[nocturne kiln]

They'll time travel the hard way: waiting. growing. festering

[wise solstice]

True that

[plain onyx]

Is albrecht really a villian??

[nocturne kiln]

Ah, I see you decided to put the headphones back on

[nocturne kiln]

Coin toss. If he is, its not completely his fault. He's driven to desperation by the man in the wall. He will give anything to stop the other

[wise solstice]

He is part of the entrauti family, and he is not the villain. Off brand sukana is (the man in the wall)

[nocturne kiln]

Back to translating

[wise solstice]

The man in the wall is literally copying Albrecht's body

[nocturne kiln]

Pretty okay but the gravemind did it better

[wise solstice]

I could make it better

I imagine it in a chamber full of gas and spores. Whispering behind the Ⱡł₣ɆⱠɆ₴₴ ₥Ɇ₮₳Ⱡ ₵₳ⱠⱠɆĐ ₳ ₩₳Ɽ₣Ɽ₳₥Ɇ as they sit there, unable to move at all.

How's that @nocturne kiln

Also reread, I edited the first part

[nocturne kiln]

Im sure its fine but I honestly just wanted to destress with translating this stuff and this is only pushing my posts farther apart because you want your words to artisticly stack on top of one another

[wise solstice]

Sorry

Also very nice

[nocturne kiln]

Im trying my best but it doesnt always make sense the first time around

[wise solstice]

Either way really good

[formal grove]

what are the chances that the gun Quincy's using in the mall is Cyte-09's exalted weapon?

[nocturne kiln]

Four is good for tonight. I Hope someone can come along and tell me where ive went wrong. I want to be able to somewhat read the stuff without a translation key in hand by the time 1999 comes out

[nocturne kiln]

not high. They showed it at the art panel and they just talked about it being a weapon

[formal grove]

ah

[nocturne kiln]

the upside is you could use it with anyone then

[formal grove]

well, I'm just hoping that Hollvania is a genuine open-world hub like Cetus, Fortuna, and Deimos and not just another bounty hub like the Zariman and the Entrati Labs

[nocturne kiln]

I hear the internet likes to correct people. Someone help me with my self imposed translation homework
