Excalibur and Warframes speak to Lotus at Tennocon

The Lotus – A Mistake Was Made

September 28, 2023September 15, 2023 Medic 0 Comments lore, lotus, new war, warframe

It’s been a while since I played The New War. I kinda rushed through the quest because I didn’t really playing as Drifter. I was also rather annoyed at how little war was actually in The New War. Sure, we had things like Scarlet Spear, Chimera Prologue, Apostasy and the Murexes leading up to The New War, but these events were far too spread out to have any meaningful impact on the New War itself. But while I played and eventually finished The New War, I realized that I had made a massive mistake. Before I continue, if you haven’t… [Continue Reading]

On No Longer Worrying About Balance

September 15, 2022September 9, 2022 Medic 0 Comments archons, balance, buff, helminth, new war, warframe

Back when Deimos first cane out, the infested room in the back of our ships was reworked. After obtaining a module from Son, one of the Entrati family on Deimos, we could rework the fleshy infested space into a way to, well, change things. By sacrificing a Warframe to the Helminth, we could take one of that Warframe’s abilities, then put it on another Warframe. The Helminth system ended up proving to be be quite popular. While it is a pain having to re-farm for Warframes we already had or needed to subsume, we gained the ability to be quite… [Continue Reading]

Not a Fan of the Drifter

June 19, 2022June 12, 2022 Medic 0 Comments drifter, lore, new war, operator, spoiler, warframe

Please note that this article is very spoiler-heavy. If you haven’t played the New War, I recommend going and doing that before reading this article, so you can avoid the biggest spoiler of the quest. It’s also probably worth playing the Angels of the Zariman quest too, since I’ll be mentioning that.

Eternalism is a bit of a cop-out

June 12, 2022June 7, 2022 Medic 0 Comments lore, new war, not quite lore, warframe

Eternalism is the idea that every choice we make creates new realities, one where you make one choice and one where you make another choice. Both choices now exist in two different realities and carry on as new, separate timelines. For example, during the New War, we are showed a cut scene of our space kid in a classroom, trying to keep everyone calm until we meet the Man in the Wall. This entity makes you an offer: take the Man in the Wall’s power and save yourselves; or remain where you are, refusing the demon’s assistance. In this moment,… [Continue Reading]

A Lackluster Introduction for the Zariman

May 7, 2022April 29, 2022 Medic 0 Comments lore, new war, spoilers, story, warframe, zariman

The Zariman 10-0 has been a massive part of Warframe’s lore, literally being the place where it all began. A ship full of families disappeared, sucked into the void and changing everyone within. This is where the Tenno came from, kids trapped within, forced to save themselves from the monsters that were formerly their parents. For such a prestigious place, a location full of mystery, chaos and death, you’d think that a proper visit to the Zariman 10-0 would be a rather impressive story piece, right? Well, no, not exactly. The first time we actually go to the Zariman is… [Continue Reading]

Where the Fuck did the Narmer go?

April 3, 2022March 29, 2022 Medic 0 Comments lore, narmer, new war, warframe

Narmer, Narmer, Narmer. Throughout the New War, everyone was shouting about Narmer. A massive religious culty thing appeared, apparently enslaving everyone and giving them all mental blowjobs. Or something like that. Really, it was just putting masks on that made everyone feel like they got what they wanted. Magic masks so powerful that they could take anyone down. And at the centre of it all? Ballas, the Orokin executioner, controlling pretty much everything, and all that worshiped him became Narmer. Either way, there were a lot of them, but after the New War’s conclusion, the Narmer seem to simply disappear.… [Continue Reading]

My Overall Thoughts About the New War

February 1, 2022January 27, 2022 Medic 0 Comments new war, warframe

I’ll be honest with you all, I’ve made far too many articles referring to the New War. We need a change of pace, and I’ll be on that shortly. But there’s an article I’ve not actually written about yet. My overall, general thoughts regarding the New War. Now, I’ve had many, many thoughts about the New War quest, mostly because it’s the big new thing that’s appeared in Warframe. A game-altering event with some small, noticeable changes, but also completely shakes up Warframe’s lore before swiftly returning to normalcy. However, there is something that is still bothering me about the… [Continue Reading]

Wow this guy is fucking hideous. Lotus, you're not falling for this Orokin scum, are you?

What was Ballas’s Plan Anyway?

January 30, 2022January 25, 2022 Medic 1 Comment ballas, lore, lotus, natah, new war, the new war, warframe

I know I’ve rambled a lot about the New War lately. Little things about it just randomly crop up and I feel I have to write them down. However, I have stumbled across something that leaves me completely clueless. All these crazy things happened, we had a massive war that lasted a hot minute and it all ended up leaving Ballas at the top. But even with Ballas and the Narmer, that didn’t seem like the end of Ballas’s plan. None of it makes sense. So what WAS Ballas’s final plan? Spoilers ahead, just letting you know At first, I… [Continue Reading]

Caliban: A Cross between Warframes and Sentients

January 17, 2022January 10, 2022 Medic 0 Comments caliban, new war, sentient, warframe

When the New War was released, it was actually part of an update with other stuff in it. Not only did we get two deluxe skins, but we also got new weapons. We also got Harrow Prime, a crowd favourite. Oh, and yeah, there was a Warframe released alongside all the new shinies. Caliban is a true Sentient Warframe, Erra’s pet project of making a Sentient/Warframe hybrid. But is this new amalgam any good? Let’s find out! “But Retvik, what about Revenant?” That is a fair question. Revenant was touted to be half Sentient, half Warframe. However, Revenant is the… [Continue Reading]

Erra Sucks

January 10, 2022January 4, 2022 Medic 2 Comments erra, lore, new war, sentient, theory, warframe

There are a lot of things that I didn’t really get in the New War. After all, it was a very large quest with a huge amount of stuff going on. But there is one character that I don’t get at all. Despite featuring many times in the cinematics pre-New War, Erra makes no damn sense. If anything, I’d say he’s one of the weirdest characters around. Warning, spoilers ahead! Turn back now if you don’t wish to be spoiled. Claiming to be Natah’s brother, Erra is a bit of a warlord, looking to finish what the Sentients had started.… [Continue Reading]
