The Tubemen Of Regor And The Issue Of Having Potentially Two Different Outcomes.

[(PSN)Fac3kick3r_lolz]

The Tubemen of Regor is coming to PS4 and XB1. They could have a different outcome to what PC gets. Either this event doesn't have any effect (not canon) or PC overrides whatever consoles get. The third option is what I personally hope for. That the 3 versions of Warframe are the major votes to what direction the Lore goes in.

Most likely, or either victor would result in the same long term lore change.

 

I'm sure both options will come about in the end. Like if Alad wins, Nef will get a separate event (rewarding the weapon we didn't get) that will basically have the results if he had won. And the opposite.

 

Alternatively it could just be a short term lore change that has little overall effects. Obviously Alad isn't going to have a cure, he's just going to stab the tenno who helped him in the back, so it won't be like he will actually be cured.

 

I'm also interested in when we will see the effects (if any) of the results. Will DE wait until Consoles are done to write it in?

Whatever happens on PC is what will be on Consoles. They will not give out the reward on one and make it different on the other.  Same as all past events results were pretty much determined before the event started

That would be pretty disrespectful to consoles since it's just telling us that our choices don't matter. I'd really like to see what they do if one platform has a different outcome.

[trst]

Chances are the outcomes are all more or less the same.

 

Alad wins-

Cure does nothing for him and/or...

Cure used against us, leads to infested content (Juggernaught perhaps).

 

Neffy wins-

Alad gets no cure and...

Alad develops more infested as plan for revenge, leading to more infested content.

 

 

If xBox or PS4 have different results then the differences will be minor, DE woulden't go and plan future lore separately for each platform.

Love your videos but on topic. Thats kinda sucky as pretty much any of our decisions on console won't matter.

Don't think it even matters for PC either. It is all really an illusion these days

The real question should be can anyone have any real lore impact. The Tenno left the colonist to the mercy of the Grineer in the Gravidus event. Tethra, didn't stop the Famorian Fleet. Eyes of blight did take half the Relays, but the are carbon copies of each other, so long as we have one, we are good. We failed to stop the spread of Mutalist infested, or the development of Zanuka, or Hyena's.

To be fair, it doesn't make sense to eliminate an asset from the game, but having some feeling of agency would be nice.

No DE isn't like that. Two possible results: 1. Results won't matter, 2. Results will only apply to each specific platform.

[Firetempest]

Developing different major lore per platform is quite simply too much of a hassle. Different battle outcomes is easy, but not changing the war. Only way it works without too much effort (lost months of time) is to make content circle back on itself so you can offer different content between platforms for a limited time, but lost content is just brought in at a later date. Making any outcome eventually lead back to the same path.

Each of the platforms have different Relays surviving, but nobody is batting an eye about that.

Because that doesn't lead to different storylines.

 

If Alad wins, it means he got the cure he wanted.

 

If Nef Anyo wins, it means Alad DOESN'T get the cure.

 

It's a matter of what he's going to do with the cure.

He can't do sh*t with the cure once I've destroyed it!

He twisted the cure so that he is more in control of the infested. That old man now has the army of the infested at his whim. You think that a guy like alad is going to be content going back and being a lab junkie. Ask yourself what is worse 1) alad being consumed by the infested and fully becoming one of them. 2) still being infested and without the infested messing with his bright yet twisted mind. I fought to keep the "cure" from him and failed due to the greed of the tenno. Console tenno, do not let this come to pass. do not follow the path of greed that will cause the tenno problems and countless lives lost of this mad mans power mad hungery. Take the true path and stop this mad man from evolving.

[Acaelus]

Last I checked the way events work in warframe is regardless of the "result" of the event, the same things will come to pass, just slightly differently based on the results of the event.

 

E.g. (This is of course just an imaginary example) Alad on PC gets the cure, uses it to control the infested better, and create the juggernaut, to assault and try to kill the Tenno. Alad on console doesn't get the cure, goes absolutely insane, absorbed into the hive mind, which then uses his genius to create juggernauts.

 

Either way it happens results in the same thing, yet due to different circumstances. There's a term for this that I can't remember, but it's similar to the example of "Universe A, Fred slipped and fell down the stairs, and ended up in hospital, Universe B, Fred made it down the stairs but slipped on the floor at the bottom, and ended up in hospital."

 

So overall, our decisions don't change the outcome, they change the process. That's basically what all the events are for. You can think of it as a long storyline with major plot-points but nothing in-between, the plot points will happen eventually one way or another, but we get to be the in-between, we get to decide what happened between those major points in time.
