“Sentient Cancer” Sounds like something my dad would call me.

'10 Kilo-Ton Sentient Flesh Leviathan' was my nickname in high school.

The marker’s most powerful ability is paying Roanoke’s mortgage with every necromorph outbreak

My head cannon ending was that the moons would work like macro predators and move on once any major cluster of organic matter is eaten/assimilated. In dead space lore humans are vaguely an interstellar race. It is fully possible that once the moons move on and all centres with markers are wiped out that humanity will be left as isolated pockets too small to attract breatherin moons or form a new moon. The only race we know was entirely wiped out was a planetary based one. It would also fit the Lovecraftian theme of indifference as individuals would not be worth the attention of the greater organism.

And that son, is how I met your mother.

The Leviathan is one of my favorite bosses in dead space and I originally had a theory that the leviathan was part plant biomass Because of its location in food storage and its adjacency to Hydroponics. Back when I played the original dead space

2024 and we STILL getting dead space videos and lore drops…..this is why im here. KEEP IT UP BOSS!!!! You a real one.

Hey Roanoke, there's a Dead Space movie called Dead Space: Downfall. I'm not sure if it's technically canon, but it explicitly states that the Church of Unitology knowingly broke the systems quarantine in order to get to the Aegis 7 Marker. The captain of the Ishamura explicitly says that the church sent the ship.

On that theory you had at around 8:49, I remember reading a fanfic(and it was actually a good one, not a crappy senseless one) where it is theorized the Oldest Brethren Moon was once a member of an alien species who developed the Marker, which was intended to be a medical device meant to alter the physiology of another being, but one member of this race grew power hungry and used the Black Marker to turn himself into what he believed to be a god-like entity and began to try and convert the universe to be like him but under his control. (also, apparently there were 2 other Markers, a Gold and a Crystal Marker. The Crystal was a data storage unit and the Gold had some secret that could stop the necromorphs.)

Oh boy I sure do love horrors within my comprehension.

That clip of the guy doing the suck is hilarious

earth gov: oops! we did a fucky wucky, so now we get condemed to the forever box

Me starting the video: "Now I wonder how Papa Roanoke will start from the feet ..."

Aaaaahhhh living cancer sounds like an insult but to a necromorph that is a great compliment the more you know.

Before I read Dead Space I thought the title was referring to the 80’s B move Leviathan and I got super excited, that being said I am grateful for any video Papa Roanoke gifts me with.

Remake did a great job connecting the Leviathan, Slug and Corruption. It almost felt like the Ishimura was becoming an organism

I'm trying to study but now I have to put it on hold

Being more bacteria than human is a wild fact i didnt expect, but also given how small bacteria is compared to our cells its reasonable.

ever tried to explain _Blood Machines_ without getting demonetized

Speaking of organic materials used to fuel and build up Eldritch Horrors, today's sponsor is Factor

Started watching this channel with the original dead space content and I’m overjoyed to see it return

You know what's scarier than the Leviathan? Anglerfish

I'm so glad I'm not the only one that seems to have a nearly constant obsession with Dead Space & all of its lore

Holy crap Daddy Ro is an absolute UNIT 👀 out here flagrantly flexing those force multipliers on us

I’m surprised you haven’t looked at more of the Warhammer universe, considering some of the diverse life in there

You should cover the Zombieism Virus from the Rebuild series. Rebuild 3 shows the majority of the lore though. It's interesting how it started, the concept of the "Antivenom" cure, and the culmination to the true cure. There's a bunch of different zombie tropes to explore too: the immune, the smart zombie, super zombies, super strain, and unwitting carriers.

It's good to see you making Dead Space content again, I missed these

Man, I have been hoping for an episode on this! Thank you!

Finally, more Dead Space 🎉🎉

10 Kilo-Ton SENTIENT cancer sounds exactly like my neighbour. lol omfg.

I was always under the impression that the Leviathan was part of the chunk of planet that the Ishimura had pulled. That it was part of the debris field and latched onto the ship before Issac showed up.

What really sucks is that you haven’t done days gone yet

Hi, dedicated gamer here - I once spent 11 days awake, before I start having micro naps without realising for 3 hours. I was trying to see how long I could stay awake. upto day 4, it was like I was so freaking drunk it was unreal, hand eye went straight out the window; gaming wasn't fun. by Day 7, I started getting palpitations, having auditory hallucinations (people calling my name), some confusion - was unsure what I was doing, and when I took a food break I'd forget the food. Day 8 I felt really awake considering (and yes I had coffee up to this point to help, and by gosh you could see the difference in yourself after a cup o joe) Day 10 - Can't remember sheeet. Day 11, tired as I've ever been - started losing gaps in time, I would start a game on CS:S and get ready to play as the time was running out, awell as starting matches but never finished em. By this point I realised my brain was making grab some sleep, and I abandoned my 'experiment' and got some much needed sleep. This was also the start of my very poor quality of sleep. My internal clock was off by a long shot, and trying to sleep there after has never been as fulfilling, or relaxing. Now, if I'm stressed or nervous I wont sleep at all. DONT DO IT, NOT WORTH IT.

I was not ready for that first suck clip! lmaooo Lawd hammercy

Papa Roanoke, hey man just wanna say I love your Dead Space vids. Those games didn't get nearly enough love the first time around! Keep on keeping on and pumping out awesome content!

Never stop these Dead Space vids Papa Roanoke.

The fact that turning the jungle ambience off makes the Leviathan pissed is funny.

Something interesting is that I get sleep paralysis very often and if I fall asleep watching a KZfaq video I can watch the video while asleep at the same time

You had me at Sentient Flesh.

I just got Shudder, mate you gotta do Monstrum! Communicable disease, big monster, some very sus selective breeding of big monster, and the plot is good and the dialogue is pretty funny.

I think that the marker played two key roles when first being introduced to Earth 1. To allow for a species to be evolved in a certain way to allow them to reach a certain population threshold for convergence 2. To influence this species to have a certain amount of intelligence Since the brother moons are a species that can only increase its population by assimilating other species, it would require that species to have a certain level of intelligence. If the black marker is capable of creating the convergence event on its own, it wouldn't need an intelligent species to achieve this goal. It can reconstitute all matter on a planet to create a new brother moon, the only downside to this method is that it creates a "feral" moon as the reconstituted matter would primarily be normal animals whose intelligence is purely survival. We don't know how it would react to the other bother moons, but I would have a hunch that it wouldn't exactly know how to interact with its brothers.

I love going back to deadspace, not sure if there's anything left to cover but keep up the good work

12:00 the VAST majority of the ones that effect you are necessary parts of your digestive system, though. Fun fact: these can be manipulated by eating different foods so as to feed different bacteria in your gut biome, which partly affects your cravings. TL:DR; Those bacteria help you eat and if you want to crave a food, eat a lot of it.

I could watch Dead Space videos from Roanoke all day. I'll never get tired of them

If I recall from the lore the hivemind already existed on Aegis VII long before the Ishimura or the colony arrived, so the leviathan could be the only one absorbing biomass from the colony and crew explaining it's weight.

Roanoke should just do early history geography and human history I’d listen all day

Been binging this channel so much youtube started recommending the older vids

Can you do the Tarkat disease in Mortal Kombat 1, how it works, how it was able to take Baraka's family but not the guy himself? And many more interesting thing about it.

Since it’s heavily hinted that the Marker guided human evolution, it’s highly likely that it also influenced the Tau Valiantians. As part of the process they may have a similar “blueprint” by encouraging the proliferation of species, flora and fauna that would encourage oxygen based life.

If ive been awake around 18 hours i start seeing flickers corners of my vision

Considering you die if you don't sleep long enough, I'd say sleep is when your brain performs maintenance on itself. The waste removal being more efficient and waste build-up causing brain damage, this would make sense. Also, it would repair any damaged or dead brain cells. Edit: turns out Dementia, Alzheimer's, and fatal insomnia all share similar symptoms. And research is also pointing towards faulty waste disposal as causing these diseases so there you go, sleep is needed to induce a low waist production state to thoroughly clean your brain out of waste. It's basically garbage day for your brain.

I like that you're remaking the original necromorph videos. It's still good to go back and watch your old videos. Heres asking for videos on the Freakers and infected animals from Days Gone, and the monsters and creatures from both Evil Within 1&2 since theyre both different monsters in each game.

I’m loving the return to more video game content, especially Dead Space.

I was just binging your dead space videos for the 8th time LETS GOOO

11:01 we might not know why we need to sleep but even moon jellies (Jellyfish) were found to sleep and respond poorly the next day if interrupted during their sleep cycle. And they don't even have brains. Scishow had an episode on it.

It blows that this Franchise was put on ice again. Glad to hear you're still talking about it though.

im so happy to see a dead space video after so long im sorry the video game episodes get barely a quarter of the views even the obscure movies get, as there is some amazing content to cover in games like Prototype, Borderlands 2 (eridian exposure and Slag experimentation), 7DTD, the list goes on.

The flood analogy does fit with my thought that the Flood and the Brethren Moons are near the same but have separate goals and a different source that would make them like two groups of humans. They MIGHT work together, but more likely they would fight.

Grats on a mili subs man.

I was in the USMC... I've gone 5 days without sleep. After day 3 it gets quite nice actually

Welp, just stumbled upon your shin godzilla video which was amazing, this one caught my interest, it is ofc amazing so now its time to binge

The more I hear roanoke talk about the brethren moons and the stages to the birth one, the more I think of them as an organic super computer network being grown in our universe by something not in our universe

18:00 anyone else noticing the screaming face inside of the mouth of that tentacle?

If you want to change it up and take a look at Humanity showing those aliens what we're all about, you absolutely must cover *Pacific Rim* pronto!

Always love seeing a new Roanoke Dead Space video. Can't believe I've been following since the original set so long ago. We got old dude lol

Shoutout to "metric system" trying to cure this heretic by giving him a constant reminder that there is, as a matter of fact, a better way of measuring things.

Definitely gonna need to start at the feet with this thing. Its the only way I'll fully comprehend it's shape.

Id like to see, if it hasnt been done already, a look at Phazon from metroid. radiation, but also not and sometimes alive and MAYBE genestealing?

So you're telling me that marker energy is just hell energy from doom, and that the markers are demons formed from the hell energy.

i heard in the og the leviathan and the thing on the comms were actually two different creatures. though some theorize that the comms creature was the original stage of the leviathan that snuck away from its dead body to hide and regrow

Man i didnt realize i was so behind i have three videos to catch up on! Gotta binge my man roanoke

I continuously forget that this man is HUGE! Love the content.

The OwlMan frame was a great touch.

I think I have officially watched more videos on this channel about Dead space. Then I've played actual hours of the game Dead space

May i request a video of Priest (2011) vampires? I find them very interesting and i would love a video of you explaining about them!

21:02 Imagine being so smart and powerful that you can use FTL ways of travel just by thinking and being god levels of intelligent, like goddamn...

I really want you to do a video on the strigori from The Strain!

A friend told me in a conversation relating to Dead Space, he mentioned that the Precursors went into the Dead Space universe and they made the Red Markers. A lot of similarities with Halo and Dead Space

Ah, back to that sweet necromorph juice. It's good to be home. 🥰

I always thought of sleep like an mmo going down for maintenence or defragmenting your harddrive

Dude I've been binging your channel and I'm stone cold terrified, I'm definitely not getting sleep tonight

Take a nap and wake up and RG is playing NEW Deadspace content!??!?! praise be mana from heaven

Where was that planet destruction from at the start? Like where it's collapsing in on itself

To my understanding, the current hypothesis on why people need sleep is that the brain generates waste while we're awake, and during our sleep, that garbage is cleaned out while our brain's on "low power" mode. Even creatures as small as planaria have shown behavior that seems strongly analogous to human sleep. This is centered around what's called the "glymphatic system" and it's effectively the brain's sewer system. :p Edit: Oh, you mentioned it seconds later. Well, algorithm etc. so I'll leave it here.

Rimworld has a implant called the circadian half-cycler, which splits the brain to one half sleeps while the other half stays awake, effectively meaning the pawn doesnt need to sleep. What are your thoughts on this Roanoke?

I think the Leviathan was the the evolution of the bosses in extraction. Nate “killed” the one in the sewers of the Ishimura, then another mass pursued him on the exterior of the ship before he sent it off again. Given how these masses work I’m assuming it latched onto food storage me that was the crash they heard. My theory is that it began in the sewers by collecting wasted organic material (gross) and the maintenance workers until it was flushed by Nate and the team. Then it picked up more bodies and material to grow again. After Nate spaced it and lost his arm, it would make sense for it to grow as big as it did if it infiltrated food storage. It would assimilate all the food and refugees there. Also I think the shuddering you mentioned was supposed to be the Ishimura descending into the atmosphere and then crashing through the debris field in the chapter after that.

Requesting you study Arcadian, and sciencify the creepily humanoid, large headed, jaw-clacking predators that are scared of a little light.

A week without sleep was my last week in high school. The hallucinations were an interesting choice but i have often wondered if my brain might be sadistic.

Oh yeah. That reminds me. Turns out the galaxy is about ten times bigger than we thought it was. Crazy how science keeps developing huh?

Back to the content that I first started watching the channel with :D When do we start with the feet again?

Hey. Would be cool to see a video about Sweet tooth sickness and hybridism 😊

My man NEVER misses.

Another great video, love to see more Dead Space stuff

I'd love Glen Schofield to make a open world dead space game where humanity has ma aged to survived and must find a way forward or even a base building rts game that be awesome

The only animal to not die when the necromorphs come will be the Angler Fish.

17:48 Or 1/10 of Legendary Godzilla after 5 years of stacking himself up for the ultimate Alpha Smackdown championship 2019, as an English native speaker in middle of North America would say.

Could you please do a video about the Kroot from 40k? They have some interesting things going on with genetic manipulation.

Good ole Swoleanoake with some fresh content and the food Factor.

Hey Roanoke, I think you should look at the HK virus evolved humans from dead island 2. I find their enhanced abillities with the retention of their humanity to be fasinating, and that the HK Virus could be refined to do this in all humans with time.
