Idea For The Introduction Of Lore

[Pavelord]

I had the idea that in the future tennos recover from their amnesia or are assisted by the Lotus in recovering their memories, this would open the possibility of memory chapters in which we play our part in the old wars against the sentients and the destruction of the orokin, with new chapters release periodically, expanding the lore by playing instead of just being told what happened, it could potencially be a place to get prime and orokin loot,( although a little reality breaking to bring loot from your memories) it could be seen as an expansion to the game without creating more planets.

 

Edit.

 

With Grimfrost and HypernovaGN ideas below, you could remember locations for loot instead of bringing it from memories, maybe add it as a reward in your next vault run.

 

Quest are suggestions in no particular order. Most of this  quest woud give insight into certain aspects of the past, from the perspective of the tenno of that particular time and those around him/her, no hard facts, at least not for most.

 

Quest #1

The first of such quest could be an introduction to the origin system in the time of the old war, we could be presented to one of the known planets in an older form, for example it could be old earth before grineer settlements and before the forest took over, we could also be presented to one of the groups ally to the tennos, i visualize an invasion mission, in which we are presented to a regiment of zero tech soldiers (from Mag codex)invading into a sentients ship in the region. The sentients "mob" unit is introduce.

 

Quest#2

Another quest could be a depiction of the Tenno as rejects, and the perception of those around them. With a rescue mission as a base, a Tenno would be deploy with a 3 or 4 man squad of zero tech soldiers to rescue an important military figure, the squad express their opinions during mission and may change at the end depending if you manage to keep your squad alive. 

 

Quest#3

Another quest could entail acompanying a squad of lower guardians to investigate an orokin ship that failed to stablish a required communication, only to find a new race of all-consuming monsters never seen before. Introduce an earlier orokin era infested unit.

or are assisted by the Lotus in recovering their memories

 

Yeah, that would work well, it would.

If you start to remember and revele things from the past, you dont need the loot, just "remember" blueprints on primes and weaps. Easy solved.

Nice idea :)

That makes a lot of sense....why are we in cryopods in the first place? dafuq happened?

Yo instead of taking the loot with you from memories, you now have the option to go to the place you remember? There may be a few enemies (or by Jove a new LOTUS faction) that is guarding the places you remembered for whatever reason. There you would find special weapons, resource stashes, and journal pages in case something ever went wrong?

[(PSN)HypernovaGN]

Oh! And there would be group recollections as well, where you could randomly meet up with another person during your play through. (Like what the remains are of a place where there were a lot of tenno at once, like what The Stalker mentions)

Also, why not some unique memories for each different frame? That gives even more incentive to collect and use each one!

yeah, it sounds less reality bending, altough it means you need 2 missions to get the reward or your first reward is lore and coordinates and the second is its location.

Exactly, draw it out.

that would be the last memory chapter we´d see, if this were to be implemented they could prolong the conflicts to create a very compelling story mode albeit delaying the reason to get in the cryopods.

Good idea, I've always wondered what it would be like to relive the "glory" days, if you will.

Hi, here again, after some words in other thread I decided to expand on this concept and added the first 3 of a series of  quest suggestions, comment on them if you like and feel free to suggest one of your own (I will edit it into and credit you into the op), if you do, as we don´t know the very specifics of the lore, try and keep it brief and descriptive and what would the insight you´d like to suggest.
