I love Ballas's voice when he speaks through Transference or in the vitruvian. I gotta figure out what settings to use on a mixer to simulate the effect
That's horrific. I didn't get it straight the first time, but these recordings with this haunting music and the slow betrayal reveal was amazing. Peak warframe
It's fascinating how this revelation about the Warframes shows how flawed the Orokin were. Literally everyone they put into service betrayed them. The Sentients rebelled after seeing Tau, the Warframes directed their madness at their creators, and the Tenno took revenge for the execution of Margulis and they way they were mistreated.
5 years ago, Ballas launched those words about the Tenno capacity to "take away the pain" and how they are fit to control the Warframes. Today as we get the Whispers in the Wall quest, once again the Tenno compassion and empathy turns the tides in a new battle, stopping the Indifference from the Void to take over Albrechts Lab.
When I finished this I wanted to grab all my prime frames and umbra and make a huge cuddle pile because I don't care if there isn't much of anything left in the primes mind wise all *warframes deserve hugs ;-;*
@@ilhanthediamondcrafter9767 I think that normal frames are clones of prime frames that's why primes have slightly higher stats they don't have "clone degradation"
@@the_protectorof_smols3563 But it is hinted in prime warframe lore and trailer that prime is the original version. Contrary to what you said, I believe the original have better DNA that makes it more powerful than the normal variant one because they cannot replicate the full DNA of said prime warframe.
Thanks for this compilation. It makes and adds so much to the lore, and it shows how just narcissistic Ballas is that he doesn't understand compassion. IDK where I quite stand with how vague and grasping at straws sometimes we have to be with Warframe lore. At the same time, it makes it a good, fun mystery to investigate, and really highlights StallLordd's lore video titles: "what we know".
The shivers down my spine. This quest and the second dream are my favourite ones for now. These "main" warframe lore quests are really good. Though I'd like to suggest something at the transitions like continuing the ost for alittle longer then change to next entry.
I feel like the message of Warframe is to simply understand one another and see past what we see as "ugly" what we hate or dislike or don't fully understand.
3:27 "We had created monsters we couldn't control. We drugged them, tortured them, eviscerated them... We brutalized their minds... but it did not work. Until they came. And it was not their force of will- not their Void devilry- not their alien darkness... it was something else. It was that somehow, from within the derelict horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing- and take away its pain." I don't know why, but that dialogue from Ballas *ALWAYS* hits hard. I've done up to the Duviri Paradox myself, but even then... this quest is still one of the best ones. *The Sacrifice.*
"They have learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing" I thought was the opposite, Tenno saw through Warframes and not Warframes through Tenno. lol
from my understanding ballas more or less was starting to realize that the orokin were a cancer/blight, that mixed with the execution of margulis / the love of his life likely sent him over the edge where he's just like "fuck all of you, i don't care what happens anymore, as long as your all dead and pay for what you did" though that part of the story is just now being fleshed out a bit more and in a very vague way so we'll have to see for sure. But willing to bet the driving force was the execution of margulis.
Yes: SPOILERS: Ballas got his resolve to betray the orokin after he was forced to issue the order to execute Margulis, his Love interest due to her wanting ot preserve the Tenno instead of having them contained/killed due ot their uncontrollable void powers at the time. this is also why Ballas holds a very specific grudge against the Tenno as a whole.
So basically, the warframes were people, made into warframes thru hemlith, they were in pain, so they rebelled against their creators, they tried doing stuff like drugging them, but it didn't work, but void children took away their pain, making the warframes be still. The reason why umbra fought back because he was in pain, and wanted to kill ballas, untill, the tenno took his pain away, but I dont know why unmbra can still move.
One of those reason probably the host was once a revered Dax, a legend amongst the Orokin. Even under the Transference bolts in his head, it was his will *alone* kept him at bay from completely losing all. What the Tenno did mainly soothe the pain away, not to suppress it. So the memories still there, the pain weren’t anymore Ballas fucked both sides up, so while Tenno heal Umbra’s mental pain, they didn’t take away Umbra’s desire for revenge, which mean deep down somewhere, his mind still inside to control
You misunderstand. The warframes we use now are husks, no humans inside. Umbra however, is the last remaining original, hence he can move because he has free will still, through us.
@@Antiblackcoat Umbra is not an original, he was made close to the ending of The Old War purely as a punishment because he spied on Ballas, which is why Umbra is sentient and still has these memories.
@@Antiblackcoat Not really, the transference bolt that the Warframes were fitted with prevented them from doing anything the Tenno didn’t want, removing every ounce of free will, Umbra is this way because he was fitted with an UMBRAL Transference bolt, that forced him to relieve these memories over and over again and kinda kept his personality alive. Umbra is the only one who ever could and still can move by itself, simply because the Umbral transference bolt kept him truly conscious with that one memory and he still is like this even though we built him from scratch, like all other Warframes, because of that Umbral transference bolt
The New War had the same purpose as the War Within, introduce elements of the narrative. The War Within explained the Continuity Process developed by the Orokin (Kuva) and the Transference (used by the Tenno). The New War introduced how timeflow works in Warframe, and how our deal to Wally and our exposure to the Void created multiple paradox and timelines.
