angias Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I know she might be annoying in many case. But to the point of hating her.. i don't get it. I saw someone say that he would rather join the grinner or the corpus than continuing to follow the lotus. Seriously what did she has done to deserve this.

(PSN)BornThisWay41 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) They are rebels, living on the edge. The grineer got to them before the Lotus can, causing them the hate towards her. Or they just don't like how mysterious they are and why we do the things we do just because she tells us to do them. P.S. I'm not against anything of the Lotus. I will continue to follow her blindly for as long as I can Edited May 11, 2015 by (PS4)BornThisWay41 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WERElektro Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Because we are to blindly follow her orders... We know little about ourselves, and despite this, we just have to obey her. She also seems to keep certain information away from us. btw.. I don't hate her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angias Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 She left me to die in a T4 survival giving me like 2 life support capsules the entire game. It's called RNG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XAvICoreZ Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 My own personal theory is that the Lotus is an A.I. that serve a lost cause, and serve a master, I think she is a puppet of some kind of Organization that is using the Tenno (infested people with technocite) for their own purposes, and that the Tenno have lost their memories and we are fighting some sort of war that we do not belong.

011100110110000101101101 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 The Lotus is very, very suspicious. Why should I murder these guys? What is this balance you speak of? Why are you always watching me, even when I'm just goofing off in my Liset? Who are you, Lotus? What are you hiding from me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brahkest Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Probably because she tells us to go into missions without really any reason as to why other than the ambiguous: "the grineer/corpus/infested are doing some bad again" to which we follow obediently because of gameplay. If you think about it, we pretty much kill legions of people/clones/merchants/robots/whatever because that's what lotus tells us to do and there's really no refusal to do it since morals and reasons aren't exactly questioned. The enemies we fight are portrayed as bad so therefore it makes it "okay" but we don't really know more than what lotus tells us. People hate her because she's this sort of puppet master who tells us to do things that aren't completely transparent in why we do them. I personally don't mind since I quite enjoy destroying entire platoons indiscriminately so my jet hammer levels up and I can jam another golden puzzle piece in the thrusters.

angias Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 She is not the one who corrupted our memories. We got involved when the grinneer and corpus tryed to get orokin technology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angias Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) I know that in most of the mission we have no idea what is the purpose of doing them. The Lotus being silent about her motivation. We feel like simple tools. The main reason we don't question her order is because we despise the grinneer and find the corpus annoying.

lNogardl Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Lotus is love Lotus is life, no matter what happens or what evils she had to commit for our good, i'll stand besides Lotus. When everyone has lost hope on her, just like everyone seems to hate Ordis, i'll love Ordis and the Lotus forever, no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angias Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 The thing i like the most about the Lotus is the mistery around her. Listening to every line she say to see if DE has given us some secret change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looopeh Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I hate her because she always gives me useless informations like: playing in a grineer titleset ''IT'S THE GRINEER''; bombard spotted ''HEAVY UNITY APPROACHING''; looking for a terminal ''WE GOT TO FIND A TERMINAL''; playing on Europa ''I'M DETECTING ICE''...... FOR GOD'S SAKE LOTUS SHUT UP AT LEAST FOR A MINUTE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angias Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 Whatever peoples tells me i simply can't dislike any of her action I hate her because she always gives me useless informations like: playing in a grineer titleset ''IT'S THE GRINEER''; bombard spotted ''HEAVY UNITY APPROACHING''; looking for a terminal ''WE GOT TO FIND A TERMINAL''; playing on Europa ''I'M DETECTING ICE''......

BlueThingy Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Because people always hate the narrator/quest giver character in almost all games. When I ask in game, it usually breaks down like this... 40-60% of the people hate her for game mechanic reasons. She narrates what's going on and reminds you of objectives and generally acts like Navi from Zelda:OoT. 15-35% of the answers are 'cause they think she's evil. Not because of anything she's done but just because they have no narrative for her existence and people's drama-sensors warn them of an impending betrayal. And a sold 25% of the time, damn near every time I've asked in game. I hear that they don't like being ordered around by a woman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreadwire Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Well its because you have to murder or assassinate people and you don't know the reason why. this game lack lore and story. we need someone to hate. And in this case. Lotus fits the bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartianJellyfish Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 -Some might hate her because they think it's "edgy" and "cool" to "hate" things without giving it much thought. -Others might hate her because they're too bored of the gameplay and its repetition but they can't break away from it, so it turns into resentment towards a guiding character with a limited amount of lines. -And others mght hate her because we're never really told what we're doing or why we're doing it. (Do you ever wonder about the purpose of a Mobile Defence or Deception mission? What are we extracting or delivering every time we carry a datamass? I do, and I don't know anything about it, so it obviously freaks me out.) However, to me at least, hating the Lotus would be something equal to hating my own mother - and that's completely out of question. That doesn't mean I don't roll eyes every time I hear "It's the Grineer" or "Stay away from the fire". (Seriously? Seriously?! I have full Redirection, Vitality and Steel Fiber on, and you're telling me the fire hurts? No, let me step on it a while longer, watch me.)

Cubewano Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 the woman is sketchy as all get out, maybe that doesn't warrant solid hate but it certainly doesn't bring her any favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)GOAT Spartan Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 i personally don't hate her, but i would like either another leader to follow to explore more options or more lore be added to understand who the lotus is and why we do the things we do. that would be awesome.
