"walking warcrime dispensers" has to be my favorite description of warframe, both with accuracy and hilarity.

Deimos is probably the weirdest part as you essentially function as a therapist for dysfunctional mutant humanoid worm family.

The "take away its pain" moment is by far my favorite story bit in Warframe. I replay the Umbra quest every so often just to see it again.

My favourite part of warframe lore is when the trauma riddled children helped the horrifically disfigured adults feel better about being turned into war machines, staged a revolution and tried their best to actually help people

The scene with umbra crying made me tear up. Then it was so heartwarming when we sort of pacify him.

The Zariman 10-0 was a colony ship meant to bring people to the Tau system, where the sentients had been for a while, terraforming it.
Also, as i understand it, the drifter is a version of the tenno that never accepted the man in the walls offer, thus never gaining void powers.
Otherwise great video!

The Lotus is space mom largely because the voice actress for her was the community outreach manager for the game, and is now the in charge of the game. She's basically been the face of Digital Extremes to the players, both in game and out.

Small correction, the sentients where vulnerable to the Void because the orokin had constructed them to die whenever they would try to comeback. This did Not work however as it only stopped them from reproducing. That is why natha adopted the tenno. But otherwise thx for putting the story in a cohesi es timeline, helps allot understanding what happened when

Kinda forgot to mention that a lot of the "structures" of Orokin society are technically "grown" for lack of a better word. Honestly there are so many untapped nooks and crannies in Warframe that it gets more wild as you go. The best way to put it is that the entire world of Warframe is a biomechanical horror show in various degrees. But kudos to condensing as much as you can xD;; I mean we can only go so far into generalizing the rabbit hole without having to bring up the idea of "Tower Meat".

You should probably add that you might have killed off/absorbed all the other versions of yourself leaving only the "Operator" and "Drifter" version's of yourself to exist, which also roles into your powers.
And if I were to explain the Lotus, I think Natah downloaded the memories or existence of Margulis and essentially merged with her Natah, maybe the Orokin did it thinking they'd have a controlled leader for the Tenno, but instead they created a hybrid entity, holding the hatred of the Orokin from both Margulis and Natah, and since Natah desired children, and Margulis sort of had children in the Tenno, Space Mom was born.

this made me wanna play the whole main questline again

NICE!  Most "lore explanation" videos for Warframe are hours long.  You were able to hit all the main and important points in less than a half an hour.  A fun and concise video.

I'm going to be linking this video to Noobs whenever they have questions about the overall lore of the game.

"a small army of walking warcrime dispensers" yea thats quite a perfect way to describe warframes

Warframe at first is just you playing as a suit and doing stuff khmm khmm killing but the further you go the more you learn of how dark the past is which led to your current self.

Warframe has a great storyline, it's hard to digest because it has been so spread out. As someone who has played since the game was released, none of this existed at first - it was absolutely mind blowing when they released the idea that your Warframe was controlled by an Operator. Seeing the person come out of the chamber, and then your Warframe collapse among static, only for the point of view to switch to THEM was incredible, and then to have your Warframe carry them back to the ship.. It's really hard to capture that moment in the context of the first time. For several years players were asking each other "But what actually /ARE/ Warframes?"

"Walking warcrime dispensers" is not an exaggeration. Saryn is a chemical/biological weapon deployment method, Ember utalizes excessive amounts of fire, Mirage is able to turn an entire tileset into a minefield,  Nova uses anti-matter, I'm pretty sure mind controlling your enemies into killing eachother counts so there's Nyx, I'm sure crushing your enemies through magnetic force also could count (Mag), and there is probably many many more I'm missing.

Thank you for covering the deal that the kids made with Wally.

this is, no joke, the best Warframe lore video on Youtube, and you should be more well known in the community. Please keep updating us when new stuff comes out. <3

"Walking war crime dispensers" is probably my favourite description of a warframe to date.

It is weird, but it's that kind of self aware, roll with the punches weird that honestly makes the story just adorable to follow along. Not like "AWWWWWW" adorable as in you can't help but just LOVE the story of it.
