Hey! Future Tiptoe here. I'm not going to mention specifics, so as not to spoil anything for folks that play the sequel to this game that recently came out. But I'll be sure to let Past Tiptoe from June 2021 know that a certain part of Gaia was activated a few times to perform a certain function, so that Past Tiptoe from June 2021 can retcon her information with February 2022 information. Disregarding understandings from June 2021 should be paramount when considering the future of February 2022. Do you get it? Don't be that person. It's tiring. And it's becoming a problem for this video from June 2021. Keep spoilers and future game information out of your comment. -Tip

Anybody else of the opinion that Ted Faro’s destruction of Apollo was less about wanting to “protect innocents” and more about him not being able to live with being remembered forever as the man who destroyed the world?

@roonkolos 2 года назад

I think the game more or less heavily implies that anyways

@midteirpersonality 2 года назад

When I heard about Apollo I was so excited. I hadn’t played the game and this was the first I had heard of it but the idea of Apollo filled me with hope, and then farrow came in and went “ how about we don’t do that” and then murdered everyone and Apollo I nearly screamed. I had to put down my phone for a second I was so devastated for this program(Kudos to narrator for such compelling storytelling). I hate farrow for what he did. I felt betrayed too because even though he would never be forgiven for what he did he tried to help fix his mistakes , so I was just gonna shrug and go “character development” and then he went and ruined everything.

@DaraelDraconis 2 года назад

And yet, if you dig into the logs and such, even with Ted's actions, there's _still_ an Apollo hope spot - the colony ships that never made it out of orbit had a prototype of the Apollo database on board. It might not have been complete, but… it was something, and it's deeply unlikely that it would've been hooked into Project Zero Dawn's realtime controls. They left in the possibility that one day, a connection might be established and the data retrieved.

@The_Story_Of_Us 2 года назад

It's pretty clear that was his intention. First thing he asks Sobeck to do is handle the plague while he sweeps the glitch under the rug to protect his reputation. He is clearly constrasted with Herres, who notes on record to Sobeck that he deserves a lot of the blame and asks his confession to be archived so people in the future can learn from his mistakes. As opposed to Ted, who deliberately sends humanity back to the stone age to cover his ass from people he will never ever meet.

@@mynameisinigomontoya8179 The difference is that Horizon lore is, more or less, reasonable. Kojima, as much as I love him to death, is not really in the "reasonable" or "believable" writing business. "Nano Machines, son!" Also, Kojima likes to bludgeon players with hours and hours of straight exposition, whereas most of the lore in Horizon is lore you need to find yourself. Following the main story will give you the basics you need to understand what's going on, but there is so much more depth to the lore than just what you get through exposition.

@venomous8lue263 2 года назад

I love the detail they added, when Faro announced that he deleted Apollo, a couple of the alphas are seen going to comfort a saddened Samina Ebadji, who developed Apollo. There’s so much emotion in this game it’s overwhelming sometimes

@kevinjohnanand Год назад

Imagine putting so much of yourself into a project like Apollo only to have it deleted because some dipshit egomaniac couldn’t bear to take accountability for his actions.

@hannahbun 9 месяцев назад

It's such a tragedy to witness. All of life was wiped out by the Faro Plague, but our history was still going to be passed on. All of our human achievements and mistakes and victories and losses, they wouldn't be forgotten. And then he destroyed even that.

@nikmcgarity Месяц назад

Samina was my favorite of the alphas. You could tell how important the world's culture was to her, how glad she was to be able to teach the next generation of humanity. I cried with her when Apollo was destroyed, and then even harder when Ted killed her.

@DekkarJr 2 года назад

I felt like the way this game told it's story was really impactful, you find out what happened kinda slowly until the full horror of what happened is revealed. I remember that text/audio log that first really hit me hard was about them observing the machines consuming pods of dolphins for biomass. And then the fact that the militaries of the world even with conscripting civilians into their ranks couldn't defeat what Faro had created. It was disturbing and emotional - one of the best stories ive ever experienced in a video game imo.

@arthurdent9281 2 года назад

The descriptions of how they had to break the news of the end of humanity to the Project candidates really got me when I played the game. It felt so real, and I could just imagine myself in their place, being told that all the hope I had that we would overcome the threat was a lie. That we were doomed, and could only try to ensure that humanity gets another chance in the distant future. Powerful stuff. Amazing story!

What I like about this story is that the Faro robots did not actually become intelligent, they were just dumb machines doing what they were supposed to do to continue operating, whilst the owner was locked out of their controls. So many videos get this wrong and think that the Faro robots become self-aware or something. They were just using their emergency mode to continue operating, they never anticipated that they would consume the entire world doing so.

@ZartaxtheWise 2 года назад

This is actually a good point! Alot of games and movies try to build up this intelligence that is the main antagonist but here it's just a really bad idea that created a feed back loop to inevitability. It feels so much more desperate when they realise what is happening and it's just to late. The loop has gone to far.

This is a great story. However, you are incorrect about one thing. GAIA did not get it right the first time. In Forbidden West, when Aloy finally catches up to where HADES is, he informs her that there were five separate occasions where the terraforming failed and he was called into action to reset things. He even supplied the dates. I don't have that information at my fingertips, but it proves that even the most advanced systems that we can develop are flawed enough to not be perfect and not get it right the first time.

@advmx3 2 года назад

Not only TED erasing Apolo feels like he didn't wanted to be remembered by the new humans in the far distant future as a devil so he decided to wipe everything out because he's a genius only when money is concerned. But also, this signal sent to Gaia suddenly with no reason, it seems really premeditated, almost like there's something watching humanity with enough clearance to send a signal that would change Gaia's subordinate functions in such a deep way it would turn them into IA, and chaos of course would start it but one of her functions was created to wipe out everything. It's almost like there's someone out there who actually thinks humanity is not worth it to be left in the earth so it decides to wipe out every bit of life in the earth, not only humanity. That flawed logic sounds way too much like Ted. The Fact that TED had a bunker made for himself only, the fact that he could communicate with the Alphas while they were sealed in a way the swarm wouldn't be able to find them, the fact that he had an Omega Override protocol, the fact that he alone survived for who knows how many years? You know what? I bet my money somehow he's responsible for that signal, be him a clone of himself (the project the alphas gave up, no one knows if TED took it for himself), or he turned himself into an AI or created an AI to essentially do his work once he's gone. After all, Gaia was not his creation, it was hers. Ted surely is the most spiteful person that ever lived in the earth and a cockroach has more moral and cares more about life than he does. XD

@mduckernz 2 года назад

The only thing that makes me think it wasn't Ted that brought about the destruction of GAIA is that he didn't know how to do it. The control he had over it was not of that level - he simply had the ability to override decisions of hers, not to completely sever her control of subordinate functions and the like. Like, he DEFINITELY had the motive and mindset (after all, does anyone really think he wouldn't just continue to to get even more delusional, locked in his trillionaire death bunker by himself? lol, no) to screw everyone and everything over in such a dramatic fashion - again! - but he just doesn't have the necessary knowledge to do so.

@Kalnaur 2 года назад

@@mduckernz I think what's more likely is that he made or had pieces of code made by employees behind the scenes that he just had to know how to put together that would eliminate the future tech from that future world. If he triggered, after he was long dead, a system failure of some sort in GAIA, then he attempted erasure of the old world's knowledge would be complete. But true to Ted Faro not thinking things through, the actual execution of the code didn't do what he wanted and the world was almost ended again, TWICE by his hand (once when HADES gained sentience and again when it seized the Spire). That's my current best guess, that when (variable) was reached, most likely a certain level of human sophistication, trigger the system to go buggy and end all future tech in that new future. Empowering all the subordinate functions so GAIA has to nuke them? Ensures they all go away, right? but he'd have no way to know how smart those functions actually were all those many hundreds of years later. True to Ted Faro form, thinking he's brighter than he actually is.

The reason why I love Horizon Zero Dawn so much above all else is because of its story. It's an incredibly engrossing story and that's because it's so unfortunately, depressingly, and horrifically believable really. The lore of how the United States ends up causing the downfall of humanity with its politics is so on point - corporations being treated as humans and being given elected office space, the blaming of other countries on internal problems within the USA, fake news, etc, etc, etc. All of what happened in this fictional American history is actually so reminiscent of real life. Ted Faro being a trillionaire is a great analogue to Jeff Bezos. Their names are also kinda similar in terms of their assonant sounds. Ted vs. Jeff and Faro vs. Bezos sound similar actually. Bezos is also known for his robotic advancements given the automation of Amazon warehouses as well as his aerospace endeavours. Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if Horizon Zero Dawn ends up predicting a lot of things to come.

And when corporations do meddle with dangerous things like military AI or genetic engineering, of viruses for instance, it is the government that funds them and then protects them from being burned to the ground. It is far more likely for government authoritarianism to be our downfall, than corporate profit-seeking.

@@brandon9172 If an authoritarian government is propping up an economic system, that is not capitalism, its either fascism, communism, or socialism. China's model is communo-fascism. Our system in the US hasn't been anything close to free-market since the government under FDR outlawed the use of actual money (gold and silver) as currency, and forced everyone to trade in their gold and silver for fake fiat dollars that the government has been devaluing by counterfeit for the past hundred years, like parasites sucking the wealth right out of the people's hands, slowly impoverishing everyone. Do you have any idea how wealthy the common person would be, and how much more productive business would be done here if we were not all robbed of 40% of everything we work for every year through taxation and currency devaluation?

What an incredible breakdown of the story and lore of one of my favorite games. You have a gift for storytelling. Hope you always keep this going. Going to part 2 now. And subscribed.

You seriously deserve more recognition. I found your "The Devil Came Through Here" video and have spent the last couple of hours watching your videos. Have a new sub, looking forward to more videos in the future! Oh, and as someone that lives in Georgia, your example of Coca-Cola taking on THAT much power is legitimately *horrifying* .

This is my absolute favorite game of all time mainly due to the story even though every other aspect of the game is fantastic as well. I love the way that you set up the storyline for the game and if I ever have a non-gaming friend that I want to still have understand the setting behind this brilliant game I most definitely will be recommending your videos!!

The whole concept of rebooting Earth life and its subsequent ripple effects are cool, I gotta admit. Aloy's personal journey is a good one too. But it was Ted Faro's Omega Override that I really felt emotionally. Wiping out millenia of knowledge? Fuck Ted Faro.

I realize this is an older video but I've been saving interesting videos like these for workout videos. This is the first video of yours I have watched and I'm impressed. I'm a big fan of retrospective and lore videos. HZD is one of my favourite games of all time, gameplay, story, and the performance of the voice actors. Robots and apocalypse are common themes in gameplay but this made them feel fresh. But back to your video. Very well written and you gave a great sense of delivery. A voice that is very easy to listen to with enough personality to make things light and fun. Some creators can go too far and turn things into too much of a performance that takes away from the enjoyment. This had a great balance. Nice work.

You've got a relaxing voice, it's easy to put this video on and sit and watch it, or put it on in the bsckground and let it was over you.
