Yee haw! Crazy brain hurty disease!

I get a lot less headaches and migraines after giving up most sources of caffeine. If I drink an energy drink I pay for it about 3 days later in the form of pain. Might be worth considering if you get a lot of head pain. A little tea caffeine doesn't negatively effect me.

Watching this while feeling loopy from my Imitrex seems so appropriate now. Feel better!

I don't know why they named him that. His chin isn't really that impressive.

I hope you feel better soon and get well! Fantastic video by the way thank you for always bringing up The morphology of creatures. Now hear me out what about an angler fish mixed with a necromorpths!!!

Truly a Roanoke moment

😂😂😂👍🏾

Babe, cancel our vows, I love someone else more.

Babe, cancel the gender reveal, he dropped again!

My brain is rotted.

He’s getting back at us for mentioning Anglerfish might halfway evolve to crabs and come on land before losing their anglerfishness

Good point! Especially with how big/chunky pulse rifles seem to be, you wouldn’t want to just be lugging that around all day.

i wonder if the system would fail dramaticly if you cut the power since in the far future it seems a lot of things were replaced with electronics.

That makes me wonder how well informed they were of exactly what they were going into. If they had known just how dangerous it was they might have been cleared for weapons at all times kind of thing.

You have forgotten the most dangerous thing the USMC teachs... The knifehand

@@cephalonwolf8422 it was a patrol ship on the outskirts of an illegal sector I assume the whole ship was pretty much on duty and stumbled across the distress call deep past their boarders, they likely only thought it was a ship that lost comms and main power and drifted off, the lower you rank the least likely you know critical information. The only people that knew were the ones that had information regarding the marker which was so classified and buried no one would’ve known if no one stumbled upon it, only reason CEC (unitolgist) knew wasn’t cause they really knew they just heard a rumor. All in all that ship full of space marines never knew what was coming and weren’t prepared for an attack of that magnitude as they likely have never been trained to combat against necromorphs, with no intel they were doomed. Even the patrol that came across the ship after the events in dead space (in the comics) they find the ship after it was slingshotted and we’re genuinely surprised by the reanimating process that occurred after the marker shards were retrieved on the outside of the ishimura was brought back in. The most ready marine task force I saw was in the events taking place in the opening scene of Dead Space Aftermath but the marker shard aboard was destroyed by the time they came in. So we couldn’t even see if they were truly prepared or had enough intelligence provided to them, but if I know the marine corps and the future of it they likely all were just getting fucked over every chance they could’ve.

You forgot the violent SNIFFFFFF between diving and saying "starting with"

No I hate that part! So scary...

He so twitched all over the place

Dead meme

​@@Devious.official you're a dead meme

Another thing is that - given they had no way of knowing the escape pod had a live Slasher inside - they weren't even on a "search and destroy" OP, initially. Likely, they were on patrol, heard the S.O.S, knew why such an S.O.S is "very serious" before shocking in, then the rest is history. Imagine being legit armed to the teeth, but you get swarmed due to your own men turning on you and then being able to dash about like an angry kitty with the zoomies.

The USM Valor did not have a mutiny before reaching the USG Ishimura. You're thinking of some of the SCAF ships hundreds of years earlier.

@@wolfehoffmann2697 TIL

@@wolfehoffmann2697 I'm aware some of the SCAF ships had a mutiny upon learning of the galaxy-wide self-termination order from the people top brass that knew more about the Marker "homeworld", but it was either mentioned by a dev or from a youtuber that did a deep dive into the extended media, that the Valor had either a mutiny or a lethal accident, but it happened not long after they shocked in before they got Chen's escape pod. I'm sure it was the minor mutiny, but I'm throwing in the possibility of the accident because I remember that they did have at least 7 corpses on the Valor around the time it shocked into the system

And the cycle continues

I'm pretty sure the valor was sent to destroy the hive mind and the marker, and following so collect the survivors for analysis.

That was the old games I'm actually curious if the devs of the remake will keep the lore of the old games in the Sequels

⁠@@grizzlybear352they mostly are. They’ve only really made the marker more obviously malevolent in the remake.

The SCAF wasnt the government before Earth gov. It was a rebel coalition of colonies that were tired of EarthGov rule.

HE DIIIIIIID

Don't count out engineers, js.

That and those from the game Prey, although he may have done that and I’ve just missed it.

I don't know how he would cover that, i see mimics closer to machines than they do to living beings

@@danielryan6604 absolutely what the directors and producers were going for too. They wanted something entirely alien that moved unlike anything on earth and actually made an entire new section of animation to make a sort of… blob that walked on shifting arms. If Roanoke ever does a video on the Mimics, I hope he shows that to try to pick apart their biology

@@kyze8284 you run into a problem there, since they work like nothing we know how can you explain it with only comparing to what we have on earth, still i can see what you are going for, it would definivly be a fun and interesting episode even if not exacly the more accurate or based in reality

@@danielryan6604 Though they're extremely alien in how they behave and function, they still could be explained to some degree in some unique ways. Their bodies look to be composed of a glowing crystalline structure resembling obsidian, which means they could possibly be a kind of silicon based lifeform, and their glowing bodies as well as incredibly fast speed could further be explained by them having an extremely fast metabolism. Furthermore, their body's internal temperature is way higher than a normal human's, as shown when Tom Cruz's character dies that first time, likely the byproduct of that extremely fast metabolism. It's not impossible to explain away how they could function, it just makes it more interesting trying to figure out how they possibly could within the realms of our understanding of modern science. There's nothing like them on Earth, but that doesn't mean we can't figure them out.

One could say he... makes us whole

They are coming. They are hungry.

For the soldiers, it might be designed for stopping ballistic and/or energy weapons. As no-one fights with swords or axes anymore, it might be vulnerable to cutting and slashing attacks.

@@Arguvandalon top of that, necromorph bone blades are as sharp as possible, since they literally sharpen themselves as they grow

That's because their meant for engagements involving humans. Necromorphs weren't human and they don't die to conventional firearms.

Also to be fair Isaac upgrades his armor and health so he can take more hits, armor only reduces damage to you and protects you from direct damage but the necromorphs and weapons can cut through it. Danvers used a plasma cutter to cut his limbs off and he only needed one shot tho he did not have a full armored rig like Isaac’s better level armor rigs, slashers even without armor take more than one shot to dismember a limb so their bones are reinforced and stronger, the fact they can cut most in one slash means their strength is enhanced too cuz they can cut through even metal given enough force, armor like Isaac can be found on armored slashers which it can take and block plasma cutter shots showing how durable Isaac’s armor can be which makes sense cuz they have to protect themselves from deadly equipment, they are more equipped for cutting and blunt damage. Military armor is more made for ballistic weapons, explosives, and etc. Tho in game it is superior to our max armor so it likely can defend against cutting and is superior overall to ours just it isn’t mainly for cutting, plus we don’t know how many hits the slashers took to kill them all, the guy we see dying from a stab was already hurt to be fair so it seems it can take a couple hits yet without their tactics working and ineffective weapons aka pulse rifles or divet pistols it means they would get overwhelmed and cut up anyways without much options tbh Only the grenades would do anything and even then one grenade doesn’t always kill even just one slasher, even if they did it would ruin dry their ammo quicker than way, and the AoE can cause collateral damage so it was not an ideal situation for them.

I have to agree. There was no way for very sharp, very well designed swords to slice metal armor. There were even techniques to hold the sword by the blade and use it as a hammer to bludgeon through armor instead. Or to use the very tip of the sword and wedge it through the crevices in joints like those around the shoulders. Bone just has no chance at cutting through hard armors such as ceramic, metal, composite, etc. They’d have to cut through weak points that serve to increase flexibility but even then… These are still space suits that have to be insulated from space. Even fabric armor can stop a swords slash in enough layers. In fact, that was a very viable way to protect against both cutting and piercing attacks. It would, however, seem like necromorphs still hit with such force that it wouldn’t matter. Our bones and flesh would likely still be sundered and shattered by the force of the impact because, at the end of the day, they are still whacking people with very boney sticks. And sticks?… sticks always win.

Believe deadspace 3 goes into this a bit. Intelligence seems to make you last longer against the Marker signature, but its never full blown immunity. The problem in the case of the Necromorph outbreak is unless you are part of the 0.01% who are builders and are practically immune to the signal (dead space remake seems to retcon this partially while not explicitly say so) you'd basically need some kind of constant healing factor to fight off the rapid onset dementia/brain damage from the marker signature.

Octopus fill several of those criteria I'm pretty sure

@@lilyeves892 The octopi are the last hope for Earth. Rising from the depths of the oceans to fight for their home, they shall crush the necromorph threat in their mighty tentacles, and drag them to a watery grave. Once humanity has fallen, the cephalopods take their rightful place and ascend to the stars to do battle with the brethren moons. Dead Space 4: Release the Kraken!

A rock person

So Space Marines from WH40K. Those are probably our best bet. Or, AI.

funfact about that game it even has a less chosen ending that would make HP lovecraft proud.

You got another channel? Didnt know. Great video as usual 👍

Issac is just built different.

@@thereseemstobeenanerror1219 He is space osha approved.

To be fair aside from Issacs plot armor and being his universes Doom Slayer 1. It wasn't just Shen, 2. There were a few bodies in the ships morgue as some Unitologost were apart of the military and didn't take to kindly to wanting to blow up the Marker so a mutiny happened, 3. When in range of the Ishumora they mutated and woke up, and 4. Soldiers are trained to hit center mass sadly not working very well for them on Necromorphs. 😅

@@Nekavandre Yeah, but you would think a secret military squad sent in to clean up a necromorph and marker would have some sort of briefing telling them that they will be fighting freaky space zombies.

@jollyroger195 You would think so but this is Earth-Glv we're talking about. Not even they fully understood the marker themselves other than it drove people insane, made space zombies, and most importantly was a power source. The Military were to destroy Egis 7's dig zone from Orbit and possibly even massacure the crew of the ishumora but that ones debated. Regardless they'd have never set foot on Eigis 7 so the government told them just enough which was "Take nuke, blow up weird statue from orbit, possibly leave no witnesses, and get out". If things had went according to plan and they had been properly informed instead of hush hush things would've gone better.

It can be argued that you ARE studying

My guess is they were there to rescue Kendra with the marker and return it to the UEG
