    About Video Game Sophistry:
    Video Game Sophistry is an opportunity to celebrate the creators and the artistry found in Video Games. I believe that Games are the most effective medium from experiencing another world, and another way to live. Expect to see a series of videos showcasing the narratives hidden in every game, interviews with game developers, along with our bench mark weekly podcast, Dialogue Wheel.
    Andy Borkowski started this program nearly 10 years ago and, in that time, it has changed from a simple CZcams show, to a radio show, a tv show and now once again a CZcams destination. Welcome to VGS.

      Also, I’d take being a near identical clone over the other possibility. Until that moment, we never got full confirmation whether Elisabet and Ted were anything more to each other (I know about Tilda; I played HFW) so until that point it was fully possible that she was some how a genetic mix “child” of the two. Imagine having Ted Faro as you sperm donor.
      …Actually don’t. It’s too horrifying to consider.

      There are a few possible factors.
      One, would be that when Gaia created Aloy, the genetic code was enchanced slightly to give her significantly higher apptitude to interface and understand technology.
      Two, the other possiblity was that Elizebeth Sobeck had genius level intellect to begin with, and Aloy, being a clone of Elizabeth, inherited that genius level intellect.
      Three, the focus could have some form of knowledge transferring capability. That or it was extremely intuitive and idiot proof to use.
      Four, Aloy had the focus for years, and played with it extensively as a child. The same way a child who grew up with the internet works with modern technology far more intuitively than someone who grew up in the pre-internet era, so did Aloy kind of know what things were but understood when she sees it for herself.
      It could be one, or all, or a combination of these factors.

      It is still a fantasy story so I wouldn't over think it too much, the best stories dance at the edges of what is possible and it is on the nose with playing the messianic card with Aloy being the saviour of the world as an immaculate conception chosen one.

      Meh, getting Ray levels of plot convenience. I suppose it can be explained with magic... Er I mean technology. But regardless, even if there is an explanation, its poor righting to force the viewer to have to come up with it themselves. Especially in video games, since adding hints and detailed back story does not affect narrative flow in a video game. Games flow at the rate the player chooses to play. With solid limits on speed limitless time for investigation and exploration. A file laying on a desk explaining how information can be transferred telepathically or somthing could have been slipped in without changing the narrative flow. A option to straight up ask one of the AI wouldn't hurt either.
      I think this is just a minor plot hole. I say minor because it's not like it's impossible in this fictional universe... it's just not explained. it doesn't threaten the validity of the whole story. But it can be a nagging question that ruins emersion and believability somewhat.

    I was thinking what if Sylens is Apollo? Like a part of Apollo. I'd assume if Apollo survived what Ted Faro did then it would know how to make a human or an android and copy a part of itself to it. To sort out the mess that was caused by the unknown transmission??

      I thought that Sylens' voice sounded a lot like General Herres'. Perhaps he is a clone of the general, or the offspring of a clone. He's a leader, cold, thinking, logical, everything a good military commander needs to be, and if General Herres was in on Zero Day AND Zero Dawn it stands to reason he is pretty intelligent and capable, like Sylens

    • @forgottenfamily
      @forgottenfamily Před 4 lety +13

      Gaia would have no need and his history is too deep for him to have been made after the subordinates went rogue so I strongly doubt Apollo would've been able to do that on its own initiative. That said, you're triggering an interesting question as to whether he might be somehow connected to the entity that sent the mysterious signal. He wasn't aware of them beforehand else he wouldn't need to ask Hades about it, but considering that he's clearly meant to be the series foil to Aloy, the idea that he is as much "chasing a personal riddle into a crowd of mysteries" as Aloy is makes for a fascinating addition to their dynamic.

    This is such an amazing game on so many levels. Amazing story. Beautiful open world to explore. An EXP system, which is always a win, although I do wish they had included a more in depth stats system alongside levelling up, like instead of just HP you had STRENGTH, DEXTERITY, TOUGHNESS, STAMINA etc. Just more types of stats that would strengthen Aloy further. I also love how frighteningly realistic the story is to real life Earth. In fact i wouldnt be surprised if this is the future of our planet. Eventually our civilisation and technology collapses leaving us with wood huts, spears and arrows again. Lastly i really loved how they showed how the tribe modified the Embrace and beyond to make getting around easier. Like the river bridges or rope crossings, climbing ropes and ledges around trees etc. Im stealing some of those ideas for a real life setting i am working on.

      Elisabet's body shouldn't even be there, let alone the globe or the ranch. There's pieces that could have been rebuilt by Gaia , but the suit should've been buried under the ground centuries ago.
      To some extent, I think it's supposed to represent Elisabet dying thinking it was all worth it... for the world.
      Dramatically, it's a lot of things. Gifting her "daughter" the world. A passing of the torch. A binding to the themes that drive Elisabet. A resolution to Aloy's quest. Honestly, I think they started from wanting Aloy to find something of Elisabet's and then decided a thematically appropriate gift was a globe and the thematic layers built on top of it naturally.

      @@beastmodejelly8654 The remains we see are exclusively metal structures and other non-organic materials. Which is consistent with what we're told about the Faro plague - that they can consume any biomass. Biomass inside of otherwise non-organic structures is equally consumed. Even if we were to argue that the suit protected her (which is problematic as the machines would likely still want to eat her and they have knives to cut holes for the nano-machines to get into), the ranch should've been destroyed. I suppose one possibility is that Gaia rebuilt the ranch afterwards based upon her descriptions... though the globe is a weird touch if that's the case.

    It's games like this that make it hard to have faith in a God or a higher power. It's rather hard to believe that there is a Heaven that our spirit goes to when we die. It'd be fantastic if there was, but it sounds too good to be true. I certainly hope that I'm wrong, although I suppose having doubt means I probably won't be going to Heaven either way...

    • @Veridiano02

      Ok. First, you can believe what you want and beliving in a high plane of existance is not a bad thing. I personally do. If you are right, then nice. If you are wrong, then you'll be dead anyway, so it will not really be important anymore. It really shouldn't be something to be worried about. Also, if people really needs the excuse of a heaven to be nice with other people then we're screwed. I mean, even if there's nothing else, I will still try to not be an asshole to my fellow humans. It's pretty hard sometimes, and you fail more than once but I keep trying nonetheless.
      With that said, believe specifically in God or anything christianity says... Don't doubt. It's false. All of it. We know who, when, why and where that particular religion was forged, and we know for what reason it was forged. To keep a few old asshats on the Rome Imperial throne. And previous, it was a cult born from a missinterpretation of what most probably was the words of a violent revolutionary against that same imperial throne and it's domination over Israel. And that was born over another religion that was a cheap copy of part of a babylonian cult outcasted from Babylon. That image of that particular god (one of many of the babylonian mythos) was created to fit a purpose, and thus we can certificate that the entire religion is just a human tale, there's nothing supernatural or divine on it. It's just humaity trying to create a religion from diverse cults and ancient mythos with the purpose of controling and enlsaving an entire civilization. In other words, you can doubt all you want, what the bible says is totally false, so don't worry about that. You won't go to hell for having doubts of the unseen, unpredicitable existance and nature of the supernatural. I don't even see how that can be a bad thing.
      Also, you don't need to have faith on anything rather than yourself, and perhaps a very few group of people close to you.

      I quite like how All-Mother is setup and how the name is basically explained. Like, Early humans came from the facility and probably referred it as a mother. This meaning was changed overtime through a game of telephone. Which is how we get the name "All-Mother". Probably because they couldn't understand how such a facility could birth humans. Thus, why Tersa thought Aloy was something Magnificent. It also kinda explains how most religious views are formed. By not understanding something, people would call it a God or God causing something. Like Zeus or our beginning (although we do know how humanity began, the problem now is figuring out how exactly all life started).
      I love how well crafted and complex this game is. There are so many complex topics in the story itself, even basic philosophy.

And since HEPHAESTUS is responsible for mechanical engineering, she needs it to rebuild GAJA's system core and reboot GAJA.
      In addition, discover new areas, find new friends and enemies ... and whatever else may come ....

      Unlike with our normal reproductive process, these zygotes seem to be devoid of DNA, which is injected into them, when the cradle facility receives a birthing order. The pods then act as wombs.
      Thus all creatures "born" in these facilities are clones. The ones born outside these facilities did so following the biologically appropriate reproductive process for that species.
      Must have been terrifying and terribly dangerous for the first generation of humans to walk out of a cradle facility: no knowledge or medical servitors, only urges.
