Where does the Marker in Dead Space Remake come from?

  • With the Remake out, there are a lot people coming to the game for the first time. So let me hit you with some knowledge: We have no clue where the markers actually initially originated. But what we do know, is the reason its called Dead Space is because humanity is the only species currently space fairing, but we find instances of other ancient civilizations that got bodied but there doesn't seem to be any information on where they went. When the black marker touched down on Earth virtually wiping out all the dinosaurs, our species would arise, to be its undoing. In todays episode, lets discuss some Dead Space!

    So theres a stuttering in this video. My recording software apparently decided to wear the brown pants on this one. Wonderful. Gonna need to fix that when I start covering their biology lol Also I mixed up Altman being infected with the other Scientist so disregard that. I was at about 48 hours into the fast at that point and running off of memory of the lore XD

    Some notes on Altman: In the book Dead Space: Martyr, it goes through the story of the black marker, you are mostly correct except a couple details. First, the locals would make the marker sign and call it "the devil's tail" because they associated it with the feel-bads from the marker. Another detail is that Altman was part of a survey crew working for a mining company (name escapes me, but it's in the third game). When he found the marker it had no effect on him, it did however turn his crew nuts. One tried to kill Altman, who in turn killed the crewman. One went nuts at the little town and self terminated, and another survived but was still affected by the marker. When they came upon the marker, the government at the time (wasn't Earthgov quite yet) was reading all the reports and captured Altman after his crew was killed. Altman actually saw the marker for what it was and wanted to destroy it. The government then trapped Altman in with the necromorphs, and then the nutso crewman who survived went on to found Unitology with the government feeding him Altman's story as a messiah. The government wanted the marker initially as a weapon, but found the unlimited energy it emitted. They found that, depending on your innate intelligence, one of three things would happen. If you were a dumb-dumb, you went crazy and started killing people. Average intelligence folks would hallucinate and become paranoid. High intelligence folks would see the marker language and be compelled to make more markers. Isaac falls into the third group. So Unitology, in essence is a government cover up of a biological weapon that ended up backfiring a couple hundred years later when they were overthrown by Unitologists.

      You got somethings right and somethings wrong here. It is true that Altman wanted to destroy the marker, but wrong about the government killing him, the government had nothing to do with it. That nutso crew killed him to form unitology for their own religious beliefs, not because the government ordered it.

      Altman escaped several outbreaks several times actually. The whole world knew about the marker because Altman had left the Yucatan and gave a presentation in DC about it. Altman would be captured there, escape, and try to destroy it back at the Yucatan. People were actually praising him before he died, which he didn't like.
      Altman's cause of death is still unknown but we know who killed him. It was markoff and Steven's.

    You were right for the most part but it wasn’t Altman who you’re talking about, it was another researcher who infected himself after seeing a hallucination and then ran to the Marker realizing there was some sort of Dead Space field around it, Altman was killed by the government who wanted to use him as a Martyr, they left him in a room with a brute with nothing but a spoon to protect himself

      Maybe a combinaison of intellect + empathy ? A bit like Cyberpsychosis in Cyberpunk world where you eventualy succomb to it if you lose to many humanity points (in the paper roleplay game) by replacing parts of your body with implants.

    • @dondon5011
      @dondon5011 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      It might correlate with the persons trauma. Isaac in the first game didn't have any severe trauma (until the end), but he was suffering from the illusions the moment he stepped on the Ishimura (I can't remember what the earliest hallucination is but I vaguely remember seeing nicole before they established it was her). Carver had a traumatic background prior to the 3rd game. But those who did manage to survive the events of the games and movies also went through these internal conflicts where they were trying to regain control of their mind. Take strauss for example, in the movie he was losing his shit before he even went down to the planet. After killing his family he had a moment where he gained some control back. Everyone else that went insane never did. Possibly coming to terms with certain things helps guard your mind from the markers effects, but if you don't come to terms with those hang ups you end up like the captain. Even Dr. Kyne was surprisingly sane until the end.

    The Markers in Dead Space remind me of the Totem object from the 2000s movie ‘Supernova’. It gave off a resonant wave that enhanced those around it with no halt to physical or emotional limits.

    One of my favorite parts of this remake of Dead Space is that there's hidden messages throughout the chapter where you approach the Marker for the first time. Unitologist script, appearing in the form of missions that come up and are then quickly listed completed (as well as, y'know, every wall and surface on the crew deck anyways), hardly appearing for more than a few seconds. One simply says 'Turn it off', a clear reference to DS3, and the description of the mission is the same phrase some few times over. The other is titled 'Make us whole again', with the somewhat ominous description of 'You feel your worlds collapsing to a center. We are the center. We will be whole.', which I believe is pretty good evidence for the theory I've long since had that the Moons, entities formed by convergence, intend to undergo convergence for creatures of their own scale as well once they gain enough from humanity, and become a single, incomprehensibly huge entity comprised of everything from the galaxy.

      There's a tabletop RPG called Cthulhutech where humanity unlocks the secrets of unlimited energy with a device that taps into a different dimension. Of course as the name implies bad things and insanity follow soon after. The Marker being something similar makes a lot of sense, the energy they emit has to be coming from somewhere and Dead Space 3 at least implied the Markers were primarily receivers from the Brethern Moons.

    When you mentioned the higher-dimensional theory for marker/moons, it actually made me think: what if the whole convergence isn't even malevolent from the perspective of higher-dimensional influencers? After all, assuming higher order of existence, well, exists, it may be incomprehensibly different. For them, unity may be the next step of evolution / maturation in a completely normal way, and death as well - only another state of existence, not the end. So when they see feeble 3-dimentinals trying to siphon some energy just to survive, they decided those bros needed a bit if help. Unfortunately, too little research was done and it did not account for the massive biochemistry and mental differences. Kind of like if aliens saw some humans suffering in pain and thought "yo, bro, pain is overrated, lemme just remove those nervous tissue in ur body and teeth, problem solved" but on a grander scale.
    That is, assuming the interference was even from sentient species. Markers may have just siphoned some n-dimentional syphilis from out beyond that is seen as necro-virus in 3D and the higher D's are assumed as marker radiation.

    Minor quibble, but Altman wasn't the one who inadvertently infected himself. It was one of his colleagues, Grote Guthe, who was the one studying the necromorph tissue sample from an infected creature living in the Gulf of Mexico. He had discovered the Marker signal could be interpreted as a DNA sequence and, during an attempt to stop a Marker hallucination, accidentally injected the tissue sample while hallucinating it as a sedative.
    Altman was a geophysicist who was mostly kept away from Marker/necromorph research except in cases where his resistance to its effects were necessary. He died in an arena-style execution between himself (armed with a spoon) vs a lab-grown brute-class necromorph.
    Beyond that, this was an excellent video and I definitely believe your theory of the Brethren Moons being higher dimensional beings brought here by the Markers, rather than their original creators.

    I feel like the Red Markers being more aggressive could be explained by the fact that they are new. The Black Marker is very old and as such, could have dwindled in it's capacity to perform. This is supported by the fact that in Dead Space 3, you find multiple deactivated Markers on Tau Volantis that are over 2 million years old and don't do anything. The Red Marker on Aegis 7 and Titan Station were performing very well and the Sprawl Marker even started early convergence before Isaac stopped it.

    • @whiteknight3929
      @whiteknight3929 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That would make sense but if you think about it the black marker would be over 65 million years old (since it ended the dinosaurs), way older than most on Tau Volantis, and was still active.

    You GOTTA be feeling the same type of anxious happiness I am! Dead Space is back, and HOPEFULLY, with more installments that do justice.
    Also, is Altman's end at the end of "Martyr" not Canon? Because I thought he wasn't infected, but was executed by the Government via being trapped in a cell with a brute, only given a spoon for defence. I still remember the horrible bit about a researcher being fooled by the marker into injecting himself with infected cells...

    I'm still on the fence of how I feel about it, but I think the remake makes Nichole being a hallucination much more obvious them the original game. All of her logs point to her hating the church, yet whenever you meet her in game she does the whole "make us whole" shtick. On top of whenever you talk to her the screen gets all wavey, Isaac starts to grab at his head like he's having a headache. On top of the rest of the crew stating that they are seeing things. Like Hammond seeing Chen. Kendra seeing her brother, science guy seeing his wife, science gal from hydroponics seeing her husband Jacob, makes it heavily imply Isaac should also be seeing things. With Nichole being the only thing we really can coke to a conclusion to.
    I felt like the original deadspace made it much less obvious

      I feel like it's fine for a remake of a game that's almost 20 years old. Especially now that most people going into Dead Space know the Markers are cognito hazards that make people kill themselves.

      @UnkleSurvivor ปีที่แล้ว +4

      if you look at it from another perspective, something placed OG black markers on planets that COULD harbor sentient life, knowing that they'd eventually activate and endlessly replicate them and beckon brother moons
      humans aren't surviving because they've skirted a cosmic predator in a vast empty space,
      they're alive because they haven't matured enough to be harvested as ripe cattle in the fenced pasture of an ancient being's making - up until now.

      Sadly DS got canned by EA after 3 but that was EA's own greed. After how DS1 remake was received hopefully they:
      1. Any remakes of 2 or 3 or extraction etc if multiplayer or online dlc is not tied to the launcher as origin died we cannot connect anymore easily to servers or stuff like ration seals.
      2. DS4 is greenlit. We get an ending to the cliffhanger after DS3 awakening.

    I really like your theory for how the marker came to be, it kinda reminds me of scp 3125 in a way. Scp 3125 is like if the marker was a concept instead of a physical monument. The major difference is 3125 annihilates anyone who becomes aware of it, along with family members and close friends of the individual. However, 3125 only does this to conceal itself from anyone that could stop it from entering the prime reality (our dimension). Once it manifests in our dimension it would reconstruct reality and those within it to something incomprehensible.

Altman died to being killed by a mutated corpse made of other people because high ranking military officers started drinking the unitology Kool-aid and needed Altman to be a mayter to make people believe in unitology .
