    Keener is definitely one of the more memorable characters in the Division universe. It sucks how they handled him in Warlords of New York, but hopefully they can treat him a bit better in the upcoming season. And yes, Keener has always been right.

      Well, I think he kinda had to die--he was a great foil/overarching bigbad for us over the course of Division 1 and even in Division 2 with the audio comms he left around DC, but if he wasn't out of the picture *somehow* then we'd have kept hunting him forever and Black Tusk would have rolled right the hell over us.

      I've been thinking about the recruiter. What if he was a Division agent recruiter instead of a Hunter recruiter? What if he was sent to find agents he recruited? Who better than him? What if Keener is the only protection the Division had against the hunters? "You have no idea what you've done." Are his last words. Vanguard is a shield or protecter isn't it? I am very excited about season 3

    With all that we know now, I am just wondering why Keener was not found and killed by hunters before we could even pinpoint his location. He was the roguest of them all and yet the unit specifically designed to take out rogue agents is not the one dispatching him..

    • @user-bz9uy8kt6e
      @user-bz9uy8kt6e Před 4 měsíci +5

      Cal probably don't think Keener as a threat. Or he is concern about his hunter being turned by Keener. Of course, there's also the possibility of the whole hunter being the third wave thing is just an afterthought.

    • @randomanimebslord536
      @randomanimebslord536 Před 4 měsíci +10

      Considering his skills and his Rogue allies, sending the Hunters in would heavily cripple Cal's wetwork force. Keener is easily Hunter+ on the powerscale with his combat expertise, abundant SHD tech disposal and extremely powerful allies. I don't think Cal would be dumb enough to waste resources on Keener ESPECIALLY when us, the Sheriff, who is easily the most feared combatant in lore was already gunning for him. Cal was smart enough to just let us and Keener wore each other out before swooping in for the ez kill.

    • @kinderjoker
      @kinderjoker Před 2 měsíci +1

      I'm not talking about "final-form-Keener". I'm talking about him when he steered in the wrong for the first time. He didn't have all his puppets when he went rogue, but his steps were already known to be going in the worst possible direction. This is when a squad of 4 hunters could have killed him without breaking a sweat.

    Next season is literally called Vanguard. Keener's callsign. I have a feeling were also gonna be waking up sleeping beauty this season. It seems like a perfect time to do it. Keener dead, Lau dead, and Shafer is the wild card for Lau. And if your theory of Lau and Kenner talking to each other is correct, then Shafer definitely knows what Keener's true intentions were

  • @AlexEsther
    @AlexEsther Před 4 měsíci +42

    Getting to know Keener's motivations way after the fact in audio logs doesn't make me sympathize with his cause. He very well could have allowed himself to be captured, but he didn't. He wanted to hurt fast and hard. The missile on Liberty Island, imo, felt like it was more a surgical strike like the rocket the blew up our agent's helicopter in TD1 opening. Maybe we will find out he had Theo unlock Isac, Ana, and Diamond and so he was able to know exactly what was going on and where Calvin was. Maybe we'll find out the missile was going to attack a Natalia and Calvin meeting and our agent stopped it?

    Now, knowing about the hidden city; it's possible that it was his target.
    Birdie made mention about how the plans showed short cuts were made on the building of it. Kener probably saw an overlooked means to deliver his virus to prevent such a safe space from being used if they got the football.
    Honestly speaking, the New York and Brooklyn underground areas would be a great place to set up a community as it comes already pre-made in the form of interconnected WW2 bunkers. Of which had to have huge pumps installed because of water table issues.

    They’re probably gonna try and find a way to canonically justify his huge shift in character that would eventually get him killed in WoNY. I have my serious doubts about them being able to successfully pull it off, but I’ll admit, I’d start smiling like an idiot if we’ll get brand new comms with brand new voice lines from Keener and his original VO.
    Edit: I SERIOUSLY hope they won’t make it so it’ll be like “ACTUALLY, keener WANTED to be killed! It was part of his grand scheme!”
    That would be very unbelievable and kind of stupid, but maybe I’m wrong. I hope I am

    • @Somtaaw7
      @Somtaaw7 Před 4 měsíci +2

      The only way it makes sense is that something caused him to accelerate the time table. A WONY comms series actually shows Keener helping out a civilian so its not like he completely lost it.

  • @rob5984
    @rob5984 Před 4 měsíci +17

    There is a lot to unpack here, but I would guess that, despite all of the comms that we've heard that ISAC intercepts, we really have very little information on a lot of what happened between different characters in the game - whether, for example, Keener ever had interactions with someone like Faye Lau, in the days leading up to what happened on Liberty Island.
    One thing I do agree on is that I'm sure Keener knew more than we do. Whatever it was that Theo was able to achieve by making ANNA available to Rogues operating with Keener, I'm sure he found a lot more than we've learned. After all, when Keener's Rogues show up in the Operation Crossroads saga, they definitely seem to know more about the way that ISAC, ANNA, and Diamond work than your average Division Agent. And that's likely based on information which is at least a year old.
    I also agree that the way Keener went down didn't make much sense. Keener triggered an attack on Castle Clinton using the Eclipse virus and it killed almost everyone there in fairly short order, leaving a contaminated mess that could impact us even wearing the protective gear we have as Division agents. And, while I'm sure the payload on the missile on Liberty Island was significant, it was in no way big enough to impact everyone in NYC. As you pointed out, Eclipse kills almost instantly. The whole thing about the Green Poison is that people got sick and then it spread everywhere during that incubation period. Eclipse doesn't work that way as you said. The big challenge that militaries have had with chemical weapon delivery is in creating a dense enough concentration. Obviously with newer chemicals that may not be as significant a challenge, as the Iraquis proved in the Iran-Iraq war, but to cover a broad area you need multiple delivery systems, not one missile.
    But, what if the target of the missile was something that happened to be in NYC? Something that would allow Keener to get even further ahead? Something for which the comment he makes, "you don't know what you've done", would make more sense? What if the target of the missile was the Black Tusk HQ Bunker? While we know that Nat has been out and about in more recent months, largely because we've been killing off her lieutenants, maybe that wasn't the case during the WONY timeframe? Putting the eclipse virus on the BT HQ might have had an ENORMOUS impact on BT capabilities - perhaps the group that Keener regarded as the biggest REAL threat to his plans. You suggested that Keener intended to draw us in to highlight the bigger real threat to the Division, but if the missile had been launched at the BT HQ, and just impacting the area around that, it would have very much highlighted that Keener isn't working directly against the Division, but is working to prevent a bigger threat. (That said, the fact that the missile is sitting by a dock on the edge of Liberty Island in easy sight and shooting range of the BT Hovercraft makes ZERO sense that they couldn't have just shot the thing apart.)
    All this would make the activities on Liberty Island make more sense. BT is throwing everything they happen to have in the NYC area at Liberty Island as they've realised what Keener is planning. But they only have so much to hand. And while we saw Faye communicating with Schaeffer following Keener's death, I got the feeling long before we found that Schaeffer was working with Faye that he was actually setting things up for Division assets to take out BT crews - for example at Camp White Oak and at Manning National Zoo with the "competition".
    What makes less sense in this scenario is what Hornet and Jupiter executed following Keener's death. These attacks seemed to be more directly targeted at the Division, particularly Jupiter, although I suppose Hornet attacking Tidal Basin could have been more BT focused although we'd already taken Tidal Basin from BT at that point. Also, the rogues that are encountered in The Division: Compromised seem to be more focused on Keener's original mission of releasing the Eclipse virus in a more general attack. But, the fact that they had quantities of the virus stored in the Houston area doesn't mean that they were planning to use it against civilian targets. They could have been focused on BT targets. Plenty of them around, after all.
    Going back to Keener though, his death on Liberty Island made little sense. It was, in many ways, "too easy" an end to the DLC. Keener had BT running in circles, and also effectively avoided Hunters that I'm sure Cal was sending after him. Because, in the secret Hunter comms we get after Johnson dies, we know that Cal keeps directing Johnson back to Keener's rogues as better examples of targets for Hunters than Kelso. Kajika, Dragov, and Conley. Which suggests to me that he was trying to get to them and Keener and Keener was staying ahead. After all, none of the comms we get from any of that seem to indicate any fear of the Hunters. Why? Because Keener was steps ahead of the competition, and with his advanced SHD Tech maybe his skills weren't hackable by the Hunters. It would certainly explain why he couldn't be tracked down, although the rogue Agents in Division: Hunted certainly seemed to be impacted by the same jamming that regular agents were. Although Maira's skills couldn't be hacked by the Hunter and he had to flee from them.
    There's also something to the fact that Keener was a first wave agent and possibly had more insight on Cal than some of the later activated waves. Certainly with Conley having worked at Ortiz Robotics and being one of the first agents recruited it would make sense that Keener had heard things about Cal that we wouldn't have heard. Although Conley doesn't really strike me as someone to sit around story telling over drinks with Keener. Still, you never know. What we learned is that Johnson did training with Conley, and Johnson was a Hunter. In fact, we pretty much know that all the Hunters are Division Agents at this point. Did Conley know this? Hunters were obviously supposed to never talk, but someone must have speculated as to who they were and where they got their equipment from. Keener is exactly the sort of person to have been putting some of this together, if only to protect himself.
    I wonder if in the upcoming season we are trying to track down Keener's secret information stash - something similar to how J Edgar Hoover had a secret set of files on everyone. Information that would help us better understand his real goals, and just who he regarded as threats to his plans. Things that would provide more insight on what he'd been tracking between Cal and Nat, and that he was perhaps ahead of them as well. And yes, it would be very interesting if Keener was still alive, but that speculation doesn't seem to align with everything that's been in the story since.
    I guess we'll find out more soon!

    Maybe I'm reaching here, but the Keener from WONY almost looks like a different person than the Keener from The Division 1. They definitely look very "similar" but it really doesn't look like the same person. Granted, this might entirely be due to different people working on the character model but it's also slightly possible (albeit highly far fetched) that Keener used Theo's facial recognition hack from the Tombs mission to change what ISAC recognizes as Keener's likeness. It'd be an interesting twist to say the least.

    The theory I have maintained since Warlords is that WE DID NOT KILL Keener; we killed a true believer in Keener’s cause who acted as a “cutout”. A “cutout” in espionage parlance is agent who functions as an intermediary between a spymaster and other subagents. Keener recruited this guy to act as him, run this false flag op to get the Division’s attention, and when they died in the process, it wasn't all part of the plan. The only thing I think Keener actually needed from the story of Warlords was the Rogue network and replacing Keener’s biometrics in ISAC so he could operate with everyone thinking he was died.

  • @gamemaster27
    @gamemaster27 Před 4 měsíci +1

    Keener was asking us "who can you trust?" Remember that some our agents in division can be hunters. He knew all too well. As for his tech. It's not shd. It's rogue tech. Keener was able to use ANNA, to hack warhounds and quad-copper to take full control. Not to mention he was able to completely shutdown our skills. I think he was trying to show us this and bigger picture of what was going on with black tusk and McManus. He also has agents in black tusk, but don't know who. I had similar thoughts about the payload and where he was targeting. Maybe haven... not sure.

    • @edmdemonz8167

  • @sidersdied6236
    @sidersdied6236 Před 4 měsíci +2

    Actually, I find it quite sad that most of the antagonists in Tom Clancy series, division or ghost recon, are written better than "good" characters, and Ubisoft just drops them down the drain all the time. I hated killing Keener, because, despite his methods, he had motivation and reasons to act. It would be a sick move if ubi allowed us to side with him in the end of warlords.

    As far as I Remember, his Eclipse was designed to phase through air filters, witch is why breathing masks don't help as much as they should. So maybe his missle was aimed for Sokolova's Bunker. If it hit the Air supply, it could phase through the filters and still kill everyone inside. That would explain the BT-Involvement.
    So either he succeeded in destroying the BT-Bunker, or he gets killed by an Agend, what leads to the agends see the bigger picture. Both way's would play in Keeners favour

  • @raemonrivera8071

    I stated before that it would’ve been funny if Isaac was hacked to confirm Keeners demise and right before the agents caught up to him he took a chemical agent that would slow down his vitals to the point of being presumed dead by Issac. I know….. I know it sounds crazy…..but man that would be mind blowing for the Division storyline ⭕️

    Division I was and is one of my all-time favorite games and storylines ... and I've been "in the game" for decades. There are "rumors" that certain launches in and around 2020 were made to be problematic if there was a "too close to target" assessment of some of those games undertones. Keener and certain aspects such as Dark Winter might have been part of that equation in that time frame. Regardless, when I completed Liberty Island, I quit Division forever and divorced Ubi

    Keener’s death always felt like the team being asked to give a big splash to the DLC as a last big hurrah for Div2. It really felt like they were going to put it on ice. Then they turned things slowly around and revitalized it. So this all feels like a bit of retro-active re-work. And I’m happy for it! But it was definitely a too-quick end for his character. I hope they can weave him into things in an interesting way.

    Great vid as usual
    A few things.
    First, how did Keener/Theo get/find ANNA?
    Second, we already know why Fae went Rogue (her sister was killed, but she was also working under cover within Black Tusk. Though i personally dont remember why or to what end) is it possible she fed Keener information (including where or how to get ANNA?)
    Next,
    At the end of WLoNY we know Keeners target was DC (but why?) Also Keener was always arrogant, and narcissistic. Definitely a "type A personality" but him going Rogue then staying 2 steps a head of the Division, kinda made him go overboard. I think he knew what was really going on, and he eventually realized he couldnt do it alone (or had gotten as far as he could)
