During the conversation with the Governor, when he walks away you can ask him one final question if this particular night scares him. He then stops for a minute and says "Not a single star..." That proves the fact that stars actually vanish as highfleet's story goes on.
Also if the guiding star was low onthe horizon it could disappear early on, soon after the strike but long before the clouds of dust darkened the sky.
the sun intercepted "Son of Sayadi, Alsahir wishes to meet with you" one too many times and noped out
The suns are actually the average player's Jammer distraction boats emitting so much radiation they glow
@@clankplusm The ancients only cracked the moon because they used ARMs while still transmitting
pfff, that was a good one lmao
Edit: bruh comment went missing
Given the fact that Kushan is a randomly spawning city name, which I took as a reference to Homeworld, (both games already reference DUNE as well, so no reason why they couldn't) and the fact that the game takes place in a giant desert, given all the evidence here I'm relatively confident the Khiva reactor is a ship. An ark, to be precise, so a colony ship. This would explain why everyone would be called to shelter there in the event of the astronomical event that these spacefaring people would've most likely predicted. As standard armament on starships, even colony vessels for self defense, likely includes nuclear torpedoes, well...
A very long shot headcanon of mine that's certainly not true is that the plaque at the end is the guidestone. This is most likely actually a qoda, although there's nothing to say *a* guidestone, not necessarily the Hiigaran one, could itself be a qoda.
I’m gonna add something else: WHAT IF mark sayadi is actually the real prophet and the masked guy is his john the baptist?
The way i play the game is usually that the protagonist doesn’t believe the prophecy and uses it to gain advantage, but, as the game goes on, he starts to believe the prophecy, and then the game ends and we don’t get to know what’s true or not.
That’s kind of how I assume it works, Sayadi is just going along with it
Also, given that some quodas are bible fragments, what if it’s the second coming of the messiah? (And not just some prophet)
I can see that as well
Thing is HF is so vague a lot of other theories can fit, its why i dont proclaim to have a end all theory, theres a lot of other interesting directions
It's interesting that Hammerflight references another game - Vangers, and i can go full shizo and link Highfleet caravans event that shows similar cars with weapons as ones you ride in Vangers.
A very well thought out analysis. This video will prove a must watch for years to come
Я когда проходил, тоже наткнулся на событие с караваном, исходя из чего предположил, что в мире игры происходит астрономическое событие называемое "большой разрыв" (в текущей модели мира пространство расширяется с постоянным ускорением, однажды оно начнет расширяться настолько быстро, что свет от нашей родной звезды перестанет достигать нашей планеты, и настанет тьма, пока однажды скорость расширения не станет настолько быстрой, что не распадутся атомные связи у всего вещества во вселенной)
BTW, in a recent interview, KK confirmed that Highfleet and Hammerfight were in the same universe. Highfleet as prequel.
SPOILERS
the ancient A.I core in the heart of a massive domed fortress would be a dead giveaway that these savages bashing eachother to death in retrofitted RD-51 husks with bladed weapons strapped to them ***May*** have undergone some technological regression after nuking eachother. question is, just how far ahead is Hammerfight in the timeline? i've heard that it's a good 25,000 years in the future, which would allow a very narrow window of time for living things the size of the worms and polyps to re-appear. given that they reference the A.I as a demon, a voice from the dead, it could very well just be an ancient supercomputer that resided in the Khiva reactor, most likely as a manager of its facilities, now in a state too decayed to be of actual use beyond using its drone factories to communicate with the outside world, relying on the kindness of the outside colonies to not destroy it as it continues to rot in its lead and steel tomb. also given the use of similar names, and the use of H- as a prefix for important things like Helaat and helaims. this also confirms that elaims won the race war and became the dominant race.
least deranged lore tarkhan comment
"Highfleet is the prequel" is honestly kind of a terrifying statement
@@rustyshackleford1508 Yup. But true.
This idea is not my own, but the duke can be considered as a prophet, as we the player can use outside knowledge to predict events in the game. Hence the title, Deus In Nobis, god within us.
Also in a event which happens with the young Alsahir, who can maim the Duke if you bring the lord governor to your side. Could that give validity to the Duke, or is it intended as more of a punishment for your hubris.
I love highfleet so much, there are so many levels to it, and it reminds me of Dune in the best ways, if only there was more.
Wow! I through that Highfleet story is simple, but it is much more deep, amazing and religious! Thank you for the video!
Learn the ancient slavic tales and you will understand
Nice video. Really hope KK gives this game a proper ending.
ohh finally found some HighFleet lore vid. This is a good lecture while building outrageous ships
Man, i really dont noticed the thing about prince ( i already played both option, but never noticed the danger time increase)
Lol that ending.
I originally wanted to go edit the dialog files and abrupt cut to the scene of Daud getting shot with my name instead, but I was already about 6 hours into editing at 3AM when I finished everything else and decided not to put it in and save the gag for the future
@@clankplusm i liked it. Better is the enemy of good enough lol
@@Ethan-iv8fs I appreciate it
На стриме Кошуин говорил, что hammerfight и highfleet в одной вселенной. Действие hammerfight происходит ПОСЛЕ highfleet.
Yeah, I intend to post a clarification on that fact: I had it inverse of reality.
Could you make a video explaining what is known of highfleet lore?
I was considering this but it was quite a pain to get through writing the script for it, there's a lot of details to go over and I'd have to check in more detail to avoid misingformation. I'd commit to it but my living situation is extremely unstable at current, maybe we'll see in a few months.
Great content ...but you could add spoiler warnings in a few places.
I like the way you think, I'm a little surprised considering what I thought before about who lives on the other side of your avatar... which is hilarious.
My bad, I kinda figured it being a spoiler was a given but I can see now that it’s not 100% obv, I’ll edit the title
Oooooooo I'm excited for some lore!
Very interesting video
Noyons who deserve to be cooked in a great pot for disrespecting ishu:
1. People who don't play with defult (short crosshair)
2. People who don't play on hard
3. People who build ships without crew modules
4. People who disregard the beautifull aesthethics of the game and build abominable ships
5. People who do not wish for the rightfull return of elevation and guns blocking eachother firing arcs
Only agree with number 5. Cook me
@@TarkhanTeph
1. Defult crosshair is as god intended however god giifted us with free will to test out faith
2. You refuse to carry the burden which would bring you closer to god. You reject modesty to lavish yourself in riches and you shall not see heaven....
3. How is your ship operating without crew? Some sort of black magic? This is a blasphemy deserving 1000 cookings.
4. Without god there is no art therfore disrespecting art is disrespecting god.
I agree with all but 1
Even with long cursor the way aim works in this game is honestly kinda ass
@@clankplusm As far as i fell, it forces players to play better in the strategic layer of the game instead of just brute forcing every fuckup. Oh i failed to intercept crusie missle? Let me just align this long crosshair line with the missle and hold left mouse button. Oh i have to fight 2 strikegroups simultanously, no stress let me just align the crosshair with their ammo/bridge and 1 shot them with AP. With short crosshair intercepting missles is more risky as it should be and in chaos of a hard dogfight it makes you miss more, both of which are imho good things.
You can fire ranging shots with 37mm etc. before firing your main guns to correct your aim.
However you can be forgiven in your Sevastopol only run.
@@filipzietek5146 ishu help you if you ever see a modder with a ultralong crosshair with that level of elitism lmao
Это просто отлично. Хотя я склоняюсь к более религиозному восприятию этой игры. Но в любом случае мне нравится как эта игра дает свободу для трактовки событий в обе стороны. Здесь вы действительно можете понять, склонны вы скорее верить или искать этому какое-то объяснение без привлечения метафизических сущностей.
Жаль что я не знаю игр, похожих на эту.
I have some secret knowledge related to the subject but it is transcending the game. I want to make a video about the knowledge i have and how it ties to hifhfleet and hammerfight and ancient slavic legends. You inspired me, but i need your permission to use fragments of your video. Let me know
Go crazy, just give me credit, I might still have the video files if you want details be it how an effect was done or a different slice of sound / imagery
How do you explain it getting colder?
There's no sunlight hitting the planet if the star is gone / not casting light, it's more a side effect of no light than anything else
This theory is like someone saying “the black sea can turn into a swamp in 5 decades” but with the heat death of the universe
Edit: alsahir literally means “the magician/a magician”
the implication is nonstandard phenomenon are responsible for the loss of stars, heat death is not what I said lol
@@clankplusm damn well forgive my rant then
19:08 wait i never see that art before
It’s buried in the files but unused in game
shame they didn't use such a great art
my other acc can't write anything about highfleet although it has highfleet in its name shocking right?
anyways love the game that's why I made a playlist "^musìc oriental" it inspires me, that orient..
rip, is there a reason it can't write? Referring to YT comment bugged or?
@@clankplusm lol it seems to write now, maybe because of username change? anyways I'm glad it's fixed :D
I never considered the silencing of stars so seriously
but try talking without modulating the your voice so much
Sorry, my speaking skills are kind of poor ig
The little digressions you do when it sounds like you're talking under your breath make it hard to understand. Make sure to enunciate clearly all the time.
Apologies. They’re kind of an autistic tick I have after dealing with corrections all the time on the internet / being a bit of a corrective person
It seems this video does not go over the full story. Spoilers in the replies.
Late in the game, the ship you sent out to check on the capital returns with news that the capital is in a much less dire situation than Pyotor made it out to be. This makes Daud call him out for his lies, and the player is given a decision: Let Pyotor shoot Daud and continue the campaign, or arrest Pyotor and allow Daud to take Romani assets back to the capital to follow the actual orders given at the beginning of the game.The only ships you are left with are the Sevastopol and any mercernaries you hire.
Pyotor is lying again when the endless night begins, claiming it to be the ash from the nuclear strikes, even though no such thing occured.
@@pseudo.Random-KF The nuclear strikes did occur. The state of the battle for the capital is exaggerated, but they did indeed come to happen, the briefing at khiva after what you mention is discussing the Typhoon-Class which attacked the capital. Furthermore the Sevastopol's men exist as evidence that the strikes did occur.
@@clankplusm Is this mentioned when the Nomad comes back? If so, I must've misread something.
I did misread it
4:13 Why do you speak like this? Are you ok?
No, I’m not, the radiation is getting to me
@@clankplusm Ah. Good Luck!
