Well... Considering the day... I thought we might talk about all the little things that go into making The man in the wall so unsettling, and let me tell you DE is hitting us in all the vulnerable spots at once with this one. We can't help but be uncomfortable around him...

There's a clever bit of irony in the concept of the Indifference bringing the Tenno into the uncanny valley. There's almost certinly a degree of transhuman dread the humanoid characters feelwhen looking at our warframes... operating, and yet even we have something inhuman yet so mockingly human in its action that we have to fear as well.

It's not just the Warframes - it's the Tenno themselves. They're commonly referred to as "Void Demons" by others. In my understanding, they're essentially what happened to Curtis in Phantasmagoria 2 - they aren't human (or Orokin), but rather something else which took their places in the Void. What came back wasn't children, but monsters who are convinced they are children.

@securatyyy 7 месяцев назад

When you first meet wally on the zariman, there is some interesting dialogue that is easily overlooked. Your tenno had picked up one of those globe lights, you check on the room, you approach wally. Your tenno says "i think you lost your light, here you can have mine" wally says "thanks kiddo, i think i will" Always thought that had some deeper meaning.

The way I see it that dialogue told us everything it wants think about it, the sacrifice it was happy our minds were confused on if we were still us or umbra, then it was happier as ballas died, but it’s still not able to do something, and I’m guessing it doesn’t know how to fully get out it’s wall form and wants a way to transfer into the perfect corrupted vessel to move freely

Just a small correction: there is no proper pronunciation of Cthulhu. Which is intentional because the names of those elder beings were not meant for human minds or mouths. Lovecraft wanted his imagined horrors to be truly alien, despite his faults he understood how terrifying the unknown is.

Everything has a place and time... but I dont like eLdRiTcH hOrrOrS getting shoehorned into every major game or game series... Feels like such a crutch. I feel it's out of place in games like Warcraft 3 or Fallout 3. I'm particularily allergic to tentacled bipedal squidfaces that drop by uninvited into my beloved game franchises. What if I was a game designer and started shoehorning in furry, brony, weeb culture into Resident Evil series? What Blizzard developers made all the evils in Diablo universe subservient to tentactled squidface? I'd be so void (pun intended) of talent and lazy and it's make no sense. That being said, I do like the whole HEY KIDDO! /rap-tap-tap /and man-in-the-wall.gif aspect of warframe. Albeit a little too-on-the-nose in the way of how it's told to the player.

@Dafuro 6 месяцев назад

I think the void is very warplike in that I don't think the indifference existed until Albrecht made contact and fell into it. I think indifference as a being was created the moment Albrecht saw the reflection of himself in the void, the intense fear of the unknowable growing with each moment the thing in front of him starts mimicking, first his looks, then his voice and memories and then it kept growing with the subconscious dread of an uncaring and empty dimension twisting and warping him from the insides. I think he opened Pandora's box and every second he was in the void was just like opening five more Pandora's boxes.

@realmshifter9102 5 месяцев назад

This seems like a very real possibility considering the existence of Duviri. And we've already been shown many times that the void operates on its own rules and logic that defies any rules and logic that we may know in our own world. The main key being that the void defies causality. There doesn't have to be reason why something happens within the void, things can just be.

@wizardwolf1020 7 месяцев назад

The more I see the Man in The Wall act or take part in the story, the more I get the feeling that he’s simply adjusting chess pieces to achieve an inevitable outcome where he gets what he wants. That no matter what we do, it’s inevitable that the Man in the Wall will succeed and that all we’ve been able to achieve was just slowing him down and prolonging the inevitable whether it be Rell keeping TMITW’s “gaze”, beating back the Angels of Zahriman, or the breaking off of the Duviri islands once they showed signs of TMITW influence and invading.

@TheDsIEGE 7 месяцев назад

Absolutely. He cares little for us, but... if he can manipulate us, he's going to. I'm guessing we're gonna be the ones to let him in, too.

@wizardwolf1020 7 месяцев назад

@@TheDsIEGE I mean just look at his Behavior throughout the story. Entrati may have escaped him and closed the portal to the Void before he could come through… but his finger was able to slip through. A finger that would go on to power Void technology such as the Zariman ten zero which got trapped in the Void which was filled to the brim with children who couldn’t properly control their emotions with minds that were underdeveloped enough to adapt to the Void rather than go mad like the adults. One (or more) of those children was also desperate enough to make a deal with him, becoming a sort of anchor, Vassal, or vessel for TMITW when Entrati didn’t. He undoubtedly lurked in the shadows, gaining influence and possibly power over the Tenno as they unearthed their repressed memories and gained control over their Void powers as a result. The best comparison I can make with this is Bloodborne where Insight allows players to perceive the Eldritch truth and see the Great Ones while simultaneously also making the build up of Frenzy increase. It’s a double sword as while they gain perception and greater power, they now know of the greater horrors that ignorance once hid with madness and frenzy (or in this case, TMITW control) now being more likely. This is all while the presence of the Void increased in the Origin system on account of the Orokin implementing it into nearly every facet of life, meaning part of TMITW is in every piece of tech in the Orogin system on some level. Rell may have been able to hold his attention for a time, but it seems oddly coincidental that Rell’s ability to keep TMITW at bay seems to run out when the Tenno both return and become more capable than ever (obviously ignoring the meta reasoning of quest releases to expand lore). TMITW also goes on to show visions to the Tenno which sometimes impacts their actions or thoughts, or even as far as allowing the creation of certain tools that help push its agenda such as the Paracesis since Ballas only gave the Tenno the blueprint via a vision TMITW caused. Then there’s the how time seemed to work very optimally in Duviri with events or arrivals or departures in Duviri seemingly to be perfectly timed or coordinated to make things happen and change. It’s like TMITW has a “hand” (pun intended) in everything that goes on that directly or indirectly involves the Void even when we don’t realize it, and it’s all to serve his own ends. The thing about him being the “great indifference” also gives me a potential idea as to WHY he does what he does. What’s the Void at the end of the day? It’s essentially all possibilities of time in existence all recorded in a separate dimensions where thought controls all. It’s practically infinite knowledge incarnate and even personified. So imagine an entity that embodies this space. That controls it and is as much a part of it as it is a part of them. They essentially are omniscient and omnipotent. They KNOW everything because they can perceive and understand every possibility in existence, including all of past, present, and futures. They are also all powerful because of the nature of the Void being fueled by thought, controlling altering just about anything with physics being regularly changed, and time being “whatever” in its truest sense. The ONLY limitation for such a being is that they’re trapped in the Void and can’t do the same in the physical world. And for such a all powerful and all knowing being, it must be boring to basically know everything there has, is, and will be. There’s no questions to be answered. There’s nothing to achieve. Such a being would find that existence dreadfully boring and it’s not like there was a period where they were ignorant and then gradually gained all this knowledge and power. At best when they came into existence, there was the smallest instant where they were like everyone else. Ignorant, curious, young, and needing to grow. Before they suddenly learn everything and gained everything through the Void. By having the Void leak into the physical world and influencing it, TMITW is essentially finding a way to circumvent his omniscience as well as partake in a challenge. He basically wants excitement and to potentially find something he doesn’t know about. To discover and see what happens as if it’s a show. To do anything to have some form of interest or intrigue rather than the ever prevalent indifference that comes with being all knowing and all powerful

@@notsae66 I mean let’s compare this to video games. Wally is basically that player that’s broken the game down from top to bottom.

They essentially reach a point where there’s nothing left to achieve or find nothing new to do with that game. So what do they do? Well ingnoring the obvious solution being to play a different/new game. The player starts making alterations and intentionally altering things just to see if there’s something new to be learned/found or even to get some sense of challenge

One of the scariest moments I have ever seen put to film was in "The Strangers". At the end of the film this family of killers in animal masks slaughters a woman's husband in front of her and makes her watch. When she screams, "Why?! Why are you doing this?!" one of the family members pulls up her mask to reveal that she is just a teenage girl and says with a smile, "Because we can." It's the horror of an enemy that has no deeper motivation, that can't be reasoned, bribed or bargained with. In truth it's probably the same dread a Corpus or Grineer feels when they see a Warframe.

@SissypheanCatboy 6 месяцев назад

I feel like The Indifference is less like it’s always watching us as more like it’s constantly aware of us. Kinda like the interactions with the main antagonist of system shock and the player, we’re practically a little insect crawling around under The Indifference’s skin. Since they’re potentially the conscious of the void itself that’s a reality atop our own. And at anytime can crush us into nothingness, especially due to our deal with them. In the story of warframe we’re not the equivalent of the tau or the imperium of man, not even the eldar, orks or the tyrannids being the sentient’s roll to play. But the mindless necron foot soldier, we might be funny if you’re one of us or allied to us - but to others were a terrifying, ancient war machine that’s nearly impossible to kill with our basic weapons being insanely powerful and kill anything in our way without ever saying a word. And at anytime the one who stands above us can do as he pleases with us. Saying were good or evil kinda loses its meaning, when were the chosen one of a god who just couldn’t care. Are we even alive anymore or just the living idea of ourselves from before the deal - like the difter is to dominus thrax? In other words, Were the jrpg puppet dictator of a dark god. Frown aside once formalities are no longer needed to start the final boss.

So I have a theory that The Man in the Wall is actually being locked in the void, similar to how we Tenno can either have only the operator or the drifter outside (hinted at by the cutscene during the New War, where time is up and we have to choose.) We offer our light to him during the handshake allowing him a wider window to see into our dimension. The reason he wanted us was so that he was not stuck in a dimension of nothing but that it could now take on a form from the light we shared, hence Duviri Plains. I believe Albrecht's maiden voyage into the void was the first time the void had taken a shape and the first emotion that was pushed out was the fear he felt both from his potential failure but also when someone he didn't know told him "Little Bengal", something only he knew. I believe we will get a more definitive answer during Whispers in the Wall but that more questions will be raised, only to be answered more during 1999. I feel that Wallie might not be a final boss, more like an indifferent guide in the land in-between, the void. I also have a theory that the new faction Murmurs will be the remnants of what the Sentients left behind, their inability to reproduce stripped from them, the unborn, The Murmurs of what could have been. Just a few of the thoughts I have rumbling in my brain. Appreciate the fun and thought provoking videos as always TheDsIEGE!

I watched a video yesterday about how someone explained that cosmic horror is scary to a lot of people because there's this huge entity that could kill you in the blink of eye. However I made a comment where I mentioned the Man In The Wall and how it's scary because it doesn't kill you. It plays with its victims. Bending their reality and memories to his will. It even does the opposite where it keeps his victims alive. And that's what makes him scary to me. The idea of being killed in an instant by something larger than me doesn't scare me. Being small doesn't scare me either. Idk you could die in an instant in your day to day life too. You could simply cross the street, not paying attention and get hit by a bus. And the idea of being small and insignificant isn't new to me either. Being significant to the people that matter to myself is much more important than how big I am in the universe or my own planet. But the idea that this bug cosmic force that can destroy everything doesn't do that, but instead just bends and twists everything you've ever known, and then keeping you alive, forcing you to be its toy. While you can never escape it, because it's everywhere, it watches you everything and shows and disappears as it pleases and no one knows why it does this. That is scary to me.

Picked up on the naming of "Indifference", as that really is the core of cosmic horror - a seemingly all-powerful, unknowable force so grand and imposing, and yet completely _indifferent_ to that which it threatens.

Something i was thinking while watching the video is the color of indifference, grey, no feeling's, just grey, at that got my thinking of the Duviri paradox Questline at the beginning the color is grey, as the drifter is full of apathy. However, this start to changes when The drifter meets Teshin and continues with the adventure, in the end Duviri is full of colors as The Drifter is full of feeling's. When we make the deal with Wally, we exchange void powers for our light, or that's what he told us, as Quin told we have our own light that reflets two shadows, one represents us and the other Wally. But what we decide to do with the second shadow could seal our fate, do we hate that shadow and make our light shine brighter so there's only one, do we embrace this shadow and turn off our light so we can become one, or we find another way one that keeps our light and the other shadow controlling the indifferences and the feeling's. One path is just light an nothing more, feelings but not thinking, but only our feelings, egocentrism The other one rational darkness, indifferent to our own feelings, and indifferent to other people feelings, apathy And multiple paths between the dark and light, guided by feelings but measured with rationality, humanity The decision of the path that we follow is in our hands.

@genghisj1372 5 месяцев назад

you put into words an idea I was trying to figure out for so long now. This is how the alignment in Warframe ties into the themes of the game, it was right there and i just didn't see it! The all feelings path is indifferent to everyone else's thoughts and feelings and beliefs, while all rational is indifferent to any mutable feelings it comes into contact with. Both the light and the dark, at their most extreme, are indifferent, and thus no better than the Indifference. But taking the paths in the middle leads us to be more affected by others, we care more the closer we get to the center. The alignment isn't about being good, not directly, it's about finding a place between two very different kinds of Indifference. Thanks for figuring it out (a brief aside, I believe the center paths are best represented by eclipses, as an eclipse has both blinding light and suffocating darkness, in some ways a clash between the two, in others a combination. Also, eclipses are caused by the two cosmic bodies affecting how light is cast, thus the eclipse effect is the direct result of multiple interactions occuring, unlike a grey void.)

Another interesting video! I'd never thought about the whole fear factor behind 'indifference' as a concept. Top 3 lore hopes for me; DE connecting darksector's timeline to warframe (1999 seems close enough and I'm hyped), getting the option to side WITH wally, and more lore for the frames themselves (especially for older ones without lore, and codex paragraphs would be fine imo). I like that DE is making a whole update/quest focused on TMITW, but I really hope they don't write him into being "just another villain". It would be more interesting (and logical given the spinny dial thing already seems to tie into his favor, at least based on that Jung philosophy vid you did a while ago) to have it be more of a player choice kind of thing. Either way, I imagine we'll get plenty of lore in the new update to pore over.

This is definitely eye opening. I've thinking about Wally's statue appearance, I think there are subtle answers. Notice his face looks like of Albrecht Entrati. I believe the man in the wall has a goal and that is to have an Identity. Think about it, he uses the tenno's appearance to communicate, his actual from looks just like Albrecht, but then if we look at the almost helmet his statue wears, it looks very similar to The Lotus, but notice we see him fully during the end of the new war where Lotus for some reason looks likd she's trying to keep something at bay. Perhaps he desires to be something in our world, and not known as just a "void" or Indifference. What is also very interesting is the picture you showed us on the bottom of the ten zero, the own with the four arms but a circle mouth of teeth. I believe that was his original look, that he wanted to change. I also cant help but notice in the new war, we see two Ballas'.

@CalamitasBrimstoneWitch 3 месяца назад

My personal theory is that Wally *IS* the void. The literal personification of it, mimicking whatever it touches because that's simply what it does. It has no form of its own, so it takes yours and twists it. It has no rules of normality, so it takes yours and twists them. It has no personality, so it takes yours, as the player, and twists it. The Man in the Wall is just like us. We're logging onto a game, playing through, doing whatever. The Man in the Wall is something beyond the game, just like us. The world of Warframe is. The Man in the Wall, the Void, simply... Isn't.

There is a really good chance that just how operator was freed by the drifter from the paradox. The twin exists through a paradox until we sediment him in reality. And he is the version of us that does ally with wally fully. The one who became indifferent.

@ReviewersGuildArSR 7 месяцев назад

So, odd thing i noticed about the interaction with "hey kiddo" moments and the color filters you can apply to enemies and allies. In my case, the enemies are outlined red and allies are blue. What this has to do with Wally interactions, is that your doppelganger shows up highlighted in ally color highlights. Dunno if this is a glitch, or purposeful. It's interesting though.

@Fiendir 7 месяцев назад

Awesome video as always. An interesting take I'd love to see explored more is... If this entity is truly indifferent, then why does it even interact with us, the tenno? Shouldn't it just walk over us unknowingly, like an ant, and that'd be it? Like, as much as a hate "it was all in your head!" twists, I still can't help but wonder if the wally manifestations are truly just mind ghosts. The Void, the indifference, is so impossible for us to comprehend on a fundamental level, that the young tenno minds just flat out made some shit up to keep us from losing it completely. Maybe that's why most adult tenno went mad, if we're leaning into the idea that you lose your imagination as you grow up. Anyway, I love that we're still fighting something here, an indifference that is threatening to obliterate all we know if we don't figure out how to shield ourselves from it. Regardless if it's within our head or not (the war within, wink wink) it's still exciting to follow along and see where it ends up, and if we'll even get a conclusion to it all.

@Voldrim359 5 месяцев назад

Indifferent has a lot of meanings... Indifferent because it didn't have form, indifferent because doesn't have feelings, indifferent because there is nothing... The Void is indifferent, nothing can fill it. And how the existence started with the void, it will end with the void

@15:44 This got me thinking. With all the players that this game has and the choices that we have made for the light, twilight or dark, I wonder, if DE is looking at this collective data (aka background metadata) and molding the story around these results. Would the NEW WAR have been different if all players made a choice towards the Dark? Would the Duviri Paradox be more focused on Pleasure, and Peace (and not Anger or Sorrow) if all players chose the light? If true, It is an interesting concept for game development, allowing the player to adjust the game's story progression through their collective decisions over many years. A matter of not what they wanted... but the choice we made before.

I enjoyed the video quite a bit. I did have a couple observations, though. tMitW is not indifferent to the Tenno. It is in fact clearly, distinctly interested as evidenced by its incessant drop-ins and interactions. Back to the ant metaphor, it would be like one of us visiting a specific ant hill every day and finding a specific ant and sometimes...for no particular reason...watching it. I'm not personally afraid of indifference. It means that I don't rely on being saved, and I don't worry about being arbitrarily hindered.

Heres a thought in relation to indifference and the void. What if the void is part of the cosmic structure of the warframe universe. Kind of tabila rasa (blank face) force of power operating as a function of the universe. However once Albrect came into direct contact with this power in took on a face of personality and thought that would otherwise be incapable of as/in the void. It might explain how (beyond Rells intervention) how we see more and more of the man in the wall and its growth in personality. Tldr being it could be something of an indifferent entity to one increasingly involved in the physical plane of existence.
