Everyone's been asking for a complete aether story recap - this is basically a shortened version which specifically focuses on how the story ends. Took a huge amount of time to put together, hope you all enjoy it! Once you're done watching, be sure to check this out... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f82mjKaTxtrHYac.html

Oh damn thats crazy, i suddenly have 41 minutes and 22 seconds to kill

The whole aether story should just become a book. Now thats a book i would read

For those that can't understand Samantha at 14:39 I gotchu: "These four, they exist across all of time and space. Different dimensions, different arms, different laws. They are always there. No four are truly the original, they are all just different. They all exist in their own way. But as the aether grows and continues to corrupt, so too will their torment. The aether, it knows it must keep them alive. It knows it must bind them to their existence. This corruption that has been spread through the universe, and it was unleashed upon the earth. It had no way of knowing it would be bound to the four. Nikolai and the others, if they succeed; element 115, the keepers, the corruption- everything. It will be banished to the place below creation. The place of darkness, along with Dr. Monty."

Pablo Marinus was the true hero of our Aether storyline. Sending Great War Richtofen to BOTD give that man a medal

No-one: Edward Richtofen: “P A C K A P U N C H” @5:10

8:06 he called takeo a newb

Alright, what’s it gonna take to get a full length story video narrated by Milo? I’m talking Beginning to End. 10 hours or so, I’d watch and listen to that

The way Edward Richtofen says Pack of Punch🤣🤣🤣 5:10

It's been one hell of a ride Milo, and I'm grateful to have followed you along the way to the end

Fun fact pablo has been in the timeline since bo1

Omg, is this heaven? A 40 minute lore video?

Yo it’s kinda hard to understand Samantha & it kinda hurts my ears 😬

Everything was banished to the “dark aether” so.... dark aether story?

Ah yes the familiar catchphrase Richtofen says in the radios. "But I'd digress..."

So did Richtofen know that he and the others would die to Nikolai's hand then? He did give Nikolai the book because he couldnt bear the decision to make himself.

Finally something I've been waiting for! A full explanation thanks Waffles!

The ending hit me hard Man the journey came to its end after 10 years.

The story video we've all been waiting for. GG Milo! Also, just so you know, I've used every single one of your guides. Wouldn't have completed many EE without them!

THANK YOU SO MUCH IVE BEEN WAITING!

Thank you Milo for all the story vids over the years I would never have found my love for puzzle,cipher and problem solving if it wasnt for watching some of your videos and this game mode of course but some of my favorite vids were when you explained how to solve a cipher on a black board the only “class” I’ve ever payed full attention to 😂

5:52 Lol the way he says back pocket, gonna miss Richtofen the most 😢.

5:10 I can’t stop crying 🤣🤣😭😭😭

the way Richtofen says pack a punch is the best thing I heard in a while

Love you milo; your dedication and attention to detail is unmatched and I think I speak for everyone in the zombies community that we would like to see that whole storyline explained video at some point in the future

Great work Milo. It’s all greatly appreciated by us all !

Couldn't we just have one more map, The Great War. Just to see it not like a comic book at least

appreciate everything you have done for this community, thank you milo x

Wow Milo! Two 40-minute videos in one week! You are my #1 favorite youtuber! Sadly this might be the last video of yours I watch for a while, unless we get a zombie chronicles 2.0 (LMAO) anyway Milo, thankyou for the hours upon hours of your life that you put into Aether Zombies. In my opinion there has never been and will never be a better Zombies KZfaqr!

This is what I’ve been waiting for! About to watch it now. Thanks Milo for making this video. I definitely need a recap!

The Aether story is pure gold with a lot of confusion! But they should make it into a book I'd definitely read it

Thank you for all the hard work and decrypting you have done through this series. If you cant do it, no know can :) love ya man

Always making really awesome videos @MrRoflWaffles. Thanks man

This was great,thanks Waffles!

Thank you Milo. We've been waiting for this

Amazing, as always. Thanks Milo.

Loved it mate. Keep rockin

such a great video explaining the stuff in between the maps which is often the best part, thanks again milo

Milo! I went ahead & enjoyed a bowl of popcorn while comfortably watching this!

Ive been subscribed to you for a while now milo. And have been a zombies player since WaW . It's been a pleasure going on this journey with you and the rest of the zombies community. I appreciate all you've done 👍👍

Wow Milo! Awesome work mate... you do such a great job putting this stuff together. Thank you immensely 😊😊 Love your work mate

A terrific exposition and analysis

I love how much info we obtained from just one map.. so much so fast. I love it! Thanks for the upload. Even further in the rabbit hole, we go!

Thank you for all those story videos! You're the best 👊

great job as always

Cant watch this without a "hi guys, Mrroflwaffles here"

I hope I see another aether story video hearing hi guys mr roffle waffles here you have guided me through every zombie map and here we are at the end

Thank you milo I appreciate your work

phenomenal video Milo

Yo y'all did good on the ee and you do good on your videos keep up the good work

thankyou, i didnt get blackops 4 and i needed to catch up on everything, keep up the good work hope you're doing well

Couldn't understand a thing Samantha said lol

Just went looking for this video... thanks

Little late but amazing video Milo, I’m sure this took a lotta work. We all appreciate you.

I don’t know if this is the last story video you’ll be doing but if it is I just want to say thank you, seriously Milo without you I wouldn’t have gotten as invested in the story as I did without your story videos you opened my eyes to this amazing story and I’m so grateful for that really lotta love man 🤟🏻

Great video.. I always wanted a timeline thanks Milo 😊

You are the reason I care for the zombies storyline! Kudos

Why did Nikolai tell victis to go to the meteor that fell after the tag Easter egg if he knew it was all going to be un wrapped ? Is it possible there is still a continuation ? Nikolai tells Samantha at the end of Tag Easter “The one who perpetuates this he must be...” so maybe Samantha and victis meat up somehow ? Also remember that Stu recording where he’s complaining about it being dark and not understanding why Richthofen isn’t answering back after they did everything he asked of them? Richthofen could’ve been dead at that point killed in the forest.

7:14 the chacellors undead army😂😂 i think he wants to say führer but its 2019 so nop

Amazing video! Thank you.

Holy s*** dude are you telling me this goes all the way back

Thx Milo! 🙏🏽 awesome awesome video! 18:20 🤣

Thank you so much for this, Games like Zombie just fuel such a creative part of my brain to write stuff about Aether storyline.

Thank you for everything

Keep up the good work brother

Love this!!

cant wait for ur 6 hour long entire in-depth aether story video ;)

great video

great job. keep up the good work

Great job 👍 they did a incredible job with fan service in this, kinda reminds me of all the radios in Rev. I hope at some point the community will will look back at bo4 zombies all in all.

amazing video keep up the good work milo :)

This is absolutely golden. Thank you. I'm gonna miss zombies I understand it all now. There were missing links but now they all fall into place

You put so much hard wrk into your videos ❤️❤️❤️

Wow this story is awesome!

Great content mate! 🍉🍉

Thank you so much Milo !!!

Wait, so we go from the Primis Cycle to the Pablo Cycle?

I will honestly sit down and watch a 4 hour video explaining the full timeline

I love your work

Its funny how samatha has a different voice on this than in the old games Full spoke english then bam! German accent!

Can u do a complete storyline recap? This 10 year story deserves it

What if the 2 angels that guided the guy from buried were Samantha and Eddie🤯🤯

Milo, do you think you could do a Theory video or speculation about Tank Dempsey being Misty's Dad? She has a voiceline in Tag where she says "That was for you Daddy...Ooh-Rah".

This video was great! Amazing job Milo, thank you! There are still many things that I don't fully understand, especially Blood of the Dead intro now I watched this video. Post rev Richtofen wanted to intercept Primis in Alcatraz, but they were stuck in there before they even seen him because he was in cryopod and Warden destroyed the portal back. In their BO3 loop, they never stuck in BOTD, what has really caused the change this time, why have pages in the Kronorium changed this time, essentially what caused the difference between BO3 and BO4 events in Alcatraz?

Cant wait for the full story break down!!!! please get the youtube zombie community together and help develop and put it together

Gotta say the zombie storyline has gone on for ages and to see it end it just feels weird but I gotta say it’s been a good time but now it’s time to start a new in a new universe the cycle will never stop.

I really enjoyed the story of aether and its heartfelt conclusion, but there's one thing im disappointed in tag: @ 32:30 its clear that at the end of Alpha Omega, Monty knew something wasn't right. And ended up killing Maxis but not before he sent Samantha & Young Eddy to the crew. So you're telling me he KNEW they were up to something and did NOTHING? Not even sent a couple of Magwas after Victis (which would've been amazing to fight some at the end of Tag) to stop them?

Treyarch made you play as victis not only for the storyline but for the zombies chronicals maps. They did this so they didn’t have to make the character models for maps like tranzit, buried, etc

thanks Milo for your time!

you could start a really cool series where you go in debt in explaining every map like this one. maybe once a week? in order? i would look forward to them every week and i think it would be super helpful

First time commenting on one of you’re vids so thank you for all the content!! And I got a quick theory what if the ending cutscenes are out of order like rev is the start of the cycle, tag is when the cycle closes and send Sam and Eddie to the origins cutscene and they playing with the toys and maybe there memory’s are lost or scrambled and that’s why Eddie wishes that they characters were real.

So will I be able to order a shirt and poster in 5 years?

Hey milo, have you heard the song that the crew sing around the fire, it's in the conversational quotes from tag, it hits hard

I really think a full storyline video would tie everything off with a good bow. Maybe if you got different zombie youtubers to narrate different parts since it’s so long that could be an interesting way to involve everyone and finish off the journey !

I love how treyarch is saying this is the end and the map is saying this is the end and everyone is in denial like "no but wait there has to be more". Love the zombies community. Let's keep searching all of bl4's maps. Maybe we did miss something.

Now, this is a video

Yo Milo could we get a Victis timeline video? Great content as always👍

I have to say that last Pablo quote before he vanishes has got to be my favorite quote in all of zombies

I wish I could like this video twice, or even five times!! Thoroughly enjoyed it! Hats off Milo!
