Excalibur has always been the first, the first warframe in the game, the face of the game, the starter you see before Volt and Mag. But why? Why was Excalibur chosen as the first? And how did he become the face of this legendary free to play? Well today we take a deep dive into the backstory and history of Excalibur!

@nickrl113 Год назад

The original darkSector, if you can get your hands on it somehow, is pretty alright. It's a cover shooter from the 360 era for sure, but in the bigger picture it's interesting to have the gameplay context. I don't know how to explain it, but you can tell that they just, feel similar somehow. You'll boot it up and think: You have played this game before. You have never played this game before. Hayden feels really fragile going up against what are kinda like proto-grineer. You can feel some vestige of that in Warframe whenever you're not playing as a flying metal ninja with space magic. I'm wondering if duviri will end up tapping into that, even by accident.

@InstructorSin Год назад

Okay for one, holy balls that is a well written comment. i know I still own a ps3 so if I happen to do some digging I may be able to get my hands on a copy of dark sector, it is neat to see both the differences and similarities it has from warframe. Overall it’s cool to see what feels like an old Excalibur, just no crazy powers or crazy weapons.

What I love about the Founders thing is that it gives folks who have kept up with the game over time with a little thing to show off that's enviable but not disheartening for folks that missed the boat. It's fun strutting out my Excal Prime and getting comments on it, but I have hated games before which gave old players huge numeric advantages that new players cannot access. It saddles rookies with a permanent feeling of inferiority. In Warframe you just get a little piece of gear that shows you were here when it started and you believed in it.

Umbra's my main. Before that, it was regular Excal, with the Avalon Helm and this really shitty blue and yellow scheme from the default colour palette. Since then, Umbra has taught me a bunch of things since I started playing in 2021. - The enemies cannot sound an alarm in an Exterminate mission if there are no enemies to sound an alarm in an Exterminate mission. - I am emotionally attached to him. - Sword go *FWOZZH*. - He can go toe to toe with the Sun when both of you are listening to Bury the Light. - He could probably outshine the Sun. Then again, that's why we have Vauban. (Turns Bloom to 100%) - I have spent more Formas on his Exalted than Umbra himself. - If him, Baruuk, Ivara, Banshee and Equinox got into a bar fight with an enemy faction, no would be able to see, hear or sense anything happening. Except for the bartender Mesa. She's blindfolded and wants to kick them out. - His Radial Javelin helps me apply a slash proc onto enemies, then prime with a Nukor and press 'E'. Then my computer decides to render frames at the speed of molasses. - Hearing his Radial Howl is both saddening and awesome. - He has influenced my playstyle of "Go dick first into enemies and break everything else. Including them." - Finally, he's so simple, so fun and with enough build crafting, so good. I've only used his Chromatic Blade, but once my exams are done, I will make a full positive Excal with Furious Jav and Chromatic. Yes. I like funny numbers on my 15-inch screen. I'll never see them, but I know they're there. TL;DR: I love him to bits. If I ever get Baruuk, they'll be my two mains. Do I like yeeting things to the moon with my second melee? Yes. Do like turning my brain off and on again to use these two frames? Absolutely. Will they keep me playing as the completely rash and moronic blasphemer of safety? You can bet your house on it. P.S., Sorry if this is too long. It's late and I had very little to eat and a lot to drink, LMAO. Be well, all. : D

As some of the rare few that enjoyed Dark Sector, I wish we could have an Eternalism centric quest related to Dark Sector. But apparently DE can't do it due to them losing the rights to it or something. Still, it would be great to have a narrative connection to Warframe. It'd drive us lore junkies nuts if that ever happens.

@ChristopherSadlowski Год назад

There are small nods to Dark Sector. Hell, there's still Dark Sectors still in the game! There's the Excalibur and Nyx skins that point back. The "Protokol" gun skins from Nightwave. Glaive...technocite...I'm sure I'm missing a bunch. If it's a rights issue then this is probably as close as they're legally allowed to get. But you're right, having an actual callback to neatly tie the two together with some creative lore would be cool!

In all seriousness this whole video put a smile on my face and warmed my cold dead heart, it’s a blast from the past to see everything from the first moment I played as a founder to now…. Keep up the fantastic work, I’m adoring your work and the nostalgia along the way. There are a few things I wish had been mentioned like the brief period where Excal became god with shadowstep, Excal umbra prime and the weird debate of whether umbra prime or prime was better, and the fact that helicoptering and later bullet jumping made super jump fully obsolete.

I took the deal. Haven't regretted it.

@JacobL228 Год назад

Some notes: The Proto(-Armor) skins for Excaliber and the Glaive (which have in-game lore that contains another reference to the time of Digital Extreme's previous successful game) are not the only remnants of Warframe's spiritual predecessor; there is a special skin for Nyx called "Nemesis", which makes her look like the recurring boss of the same name from Dark Sector, who had a lot of the same abilities as Nyx. The fact that Nyx is female is a nod to the big reveal of Nemesis's true identity. There is also the in-game lore that Earth had to be abandoned at some point due to a virus that horribly mutated most of the organic life there, which is similar to (but not exactly the same as) the virus that Hayden was trying to stop the spread of in Dark Sector. Finally, standing special missions that are harder, but offer higher rewards, are called "Dark Sector missions".

@wanderingbufoon Год назад

Umbra's story kind of tells you the horror that is Warframe. It basically hints that the Warframes aren't just biomechanical suits but actual people. Adults, in fact. If Tennos were the children of the Void, Warframes are the adults of the non-Void, so to speak. I'm not quite sure if that is by design but I find it poetic that the lore ended up like that. How the kids pilot the adults in a world that they are no longer a part of (since they've adapted to the void).

@Neo3602 Год назад

Excellent video, I'm one of the few founders still around and I'm glad Excalibur is in a good place right now. On nitpick is that slash dash also has a forced slash proc like radial javelin which makes it even better.

@Guitar_Dude09 8 месяцев назад

Great video for my main Warframe after 11 years! Excal will always be my #1 & my build for him is unique id like to believe & god tier for any endless SP content. Also I have to object, super jump was not bad we didn’t have the parkour system before & before we had to press CTRL to reset our wall run because we couldn’t wall run forever & then DE decided to patch that lol & the worst offender of that was the void extraction we didn’t have the stairs it was just like a mini wall & a balcony before you jumped to go into extraction (& there was others but this one I always saw struggle & another). & reviving friends was clutch with super jump because if you timed it you could super jump + revive & you would be avoiding enemy fire (super good for endless or even tough content) & it only got better with its buff that you went invisible. But yeah Super Jump was clutch for the old parkour system either way I want my Super Jump back please

I remember starting Warframe because I thought the exalted blade looked like a cool melee weapon. So my husband tells me the name of the game, I download it and start looking for the weapon only to find out that it was built in to the frame I started as. I remember the lag bugs you could do to have infinite exalted blade so long as you kept swinging, I remember have unlimited enemy and wall puncture with that sword. Excal was my favorite Warframe, and it still is today. He was the reason I started, and my only regret was not knowing about this game sooner so I could support it as a founder.

Story Umbra in Chinese server in short: Umbra was set to be the Excalibur Prime of CN server sold in the Founder pack with Nikana Prime and Spira Prime. Then DE put Excalibur Umbra back to global server with "The Sacrifice" making Umbra no longer exclusive of CN server. Also because of the claim of no return of Founder pack, Nikana Prime and Spira Prime are exclusive for Founders in CN server the Prime Resurgence of Saryn in CN server was skipped.

my experience playing excalibur is the sweetest i've had in warframe. and i've had a lot of good moments there. i came back to the game one time after a break and had an itch to try out excalibur. little did in know that a new quest had already dropped and would give me a free fully upgraded excalibur. the Umbra. a warframe so powerfull he even surpass his prime counter part in terms of stats and performance. since then i've been using him non stop. and despite all the powerfull warframes that i have collected in my arsenal the umbra remains my most trusty and fun one to play.

Excalibur Prime main here. I'm happy to see this video.

I started playing Warframe in 2017. I thought the game had changed drastically between then and now, but DAMN, the gap is so much wider from release to my entry. I had no idea It was so old, and I say this as a longtime fan of Dark Sector!

@buckcherry2564 Год назад

I remember the ol' days. The infested used to be mysterious and dark. I also remember when Derelicts came out and where actually interesting and spooky. On topic, sorta, I wouldnt mind being able to trade my Excal Prime away to someone that mains Excal and would enjoy it.

I loved warframe and Excalibur! I truly envy that have Excalibur Prime in your possessio.

Excalibur Umbra is my most favorite frame. He's my story mission frame and he's my go-to for public bounties because he's my lil sidekick when I'm in my Voidrig.

16:33 it's always such an honor to see a founder. Honestly, I don't know if they will do a Founder program for Soulframe, but if they do I so wanna be on that list cause even just with Warframe they've put so much hard work into it.

@blacknapalm2131 Год назад

*Grand Master Founder here* and I miss the days when it was just 8 Warframes* The first Warframe I ever 'bought' was Ash (there were no Warframe parts at the time believe it or not) and I still use Ash to this day.

I remember donning the Proto Warframe in darkSector. Fun game. Kinda scared me, as a kid. Now, I play as Proto-Excalibur, with the Proto-Glaive.

@thewolfstu 5 месяцев назад

25:12 I love how Umbra was also completely free to get for everyone and even comes with his own free slot.

@sheldondowning958 10 месяцев назад

Interesting that you mentioned how Excalibur set the precedent for Warframes getting ability reworks. Just a few months after you posted, a rework of Hydroid was announced that replaced Undertow with a new skill called Plunder, which makes him steal enemy armor. He also got his abilities' main damage type changed to Corrosive instead of Magnetic, hence the armor-stealing.

Super jump was not useless. Back when stamina was a thing, super jump made Excalibur extremely mobile in comparison. Speaking as a founder who's mained Excalibur since 2013.

@Daniel-ix6nq Год назад

Man I have followed this game since that initial trailer (still go back just to listen to the music from time to time) I even played Warframe in it's earlier states. The only reason why I haven't played for years is because of how vast it has gotten, and how many systems and subsystems I'd have to catch up on. Still, a very fun game and I'm glad it's succeeded the way it has

@crudefredo9148 Год назад

That’s actually nuts I remember beating dark sector multiple times on the 360 when it first came out it was my favorite game at the time, I play warframe now there was so much time in between games that I had no clue about a link between the two games that’s awesome. 🤣

@xanthousizalith5641 Год назад

I love Excalibur, my one complaint is how he's described in the first thing. "We recommend this Frame for beginners who want to learn the ropes" imo, that's totally false. Personally, I think Volt fits that much better. Going side by side on their abilities, Volt and Excalibur's 1s both fit the same purpose so they're even there, but the 2s are where things get interesting. In my personal opinion, Speed is better than Radial Blind. A new player probably isn't going to understand the movement mechanics enough to fully use Speed, but with Speed, they can cast and just run with none of the enemies being able tot hit them since your speed affects enemy accuracy, Radial Blind grants a similar purpose but it only affects the people close to Excalibur and doesn't grant him any movement. 3s are where it gets really interesting. Electric Shield is a wonderful tool for new players who don't have the best aim, giving them a chance to practice it while dealing bonus damage which Radial Javelin doesn't do either of, but does get enemies off your back, which Volt can do in his 4 with Discharge. Exalted Blade is a good melee weapon, and definitely deserves the praise it gets, but I personally think that Volt is a better starter frame than Excalibur.

@charlessxavier7830 7 месяцев назад

I'm starting playing Warframe just few years back, maybe from the update of "Protea" to this day. And I thought that Excalibur becomes the first Warframe because from the explanation in "The Sacrifice" quest where Ballas begins the experiment of Warframe (as the tool of war) from the dying soldier of his own kin, injected him with some viruses and super serum (perhaps). However, although the experiment shows the great result physically, the mind of Umbra cannot be conquered no matter how. Hence, in the future, the next experiments of the Warframes are just completely empty vessels but controlled by the Tenno aka Operator (which based on the story, the survivor children of Zariman). I know in the story, it's called "Excalibur Umbra", not just regular Excalibur, but in my opinion, because Umbra is possibly the first "guinea pig", he is evolving through time to a certain level. But again, this is just from my point of view....

@Alt3rnatiV 5 месяцев назад

Excalibur is LITERALLY everywhere when you're in a public area, Cetus for example, every frame that hasn't fully loaded in yet is Excalibur

@TURBOMIKEIFY Год назад

Oh how it feels so refreshing to see the old UI. I remember I almost never picked up this game again once I saw the cards (mods). I thought this game was part hack and slash, part card game. I eventually reinstalled this to my PS4 because I was a high school kid with a mom who didn't pay for PS+ often. Then, I feel in love. I just failed my MR23 test, and I've been on MR22 since like 2020.

@TheFormActually Год назад

it was the coolest looking sketch of a war suit for a previous game by DE called dark sector, so they went with it. later steve wanted to make an mmo game sci fi shooter in space, thus they imported excalibur from the old game, updated the sketch ( later returned the original one as a sellable skin) and voila.... There I saved you 44 minutes of your life.

@flpdragonslayersmith8 Год назад

Last comment I swear, this is by far my favorite game of all time. I'm an old head, grew up on NES 1, original, even Attari for that matter. This is only game I'll turn on almost everyday. Can always find something to do.

I played Umbra after his rework and man, He's fun! I have a slash dash build with Purging Slash and Chromatic Blade, Combining it with Exalted Blade makes it better! I use Nourish for the Energy Multiplier and Viral Proc (For some reason), I was breezing through Conjunction Survival while playing Bury the Light in the background, Because I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHIGN!
