Ned, you consistently give more depth and meaning to my ARK play. Our tribe is now on Extinction and enjoying it immensely. I'm so immersed in the lore of ARK and you have played a huge part in that. Thank you. Excellent job on this video, as always.
just the details of having the right tames heading up to the boss fight is SUCH a nice touch! as always, thanks for these! they're always something i look forward to
You know why they had Mei-Yin Li skip Scorched Earth? Because if she teamed up with Wali al Aswad (Raia) there wouldn't be anything left to fight for us new survivors :-D
I have seen your previous video with the Aberration dossiers, but I kind of wish I hadn’t so I would have been completely blind to the Reaper birth. The first time I saw it I felt like I had blinked and missed something.
Mae has always been able to tame things in ways we cant... she passes down the easiest of the ways to other survivors but unless you are the beast queen you cant tame the stuff the way she did.
The thing I always have the most questions about is the gap between extinction and genesis 1. Is our player the same character? Or did our first character retire after extinction and the genesis one is someone else.
So... after Earth was reseeded, Helena was beamed into the Genesis Simulation by Mei-Yin and Diana, who finally made it to Arat Prime. Then she made HLN-A, before disappearing from our reality. Fast forward a bit, and Aberration crashed near Arat Prime, freeing Rockwell. He went to Arat Prime and used the superluminal link Mei-Yin and Diana left open to get onto the Genesis-Ship. We dunno what actually happens to Mei-Yin and Diana after they beam Helena into Genesis, unfortunately. As for who we play as, it's not clear. There's evidence pointing towards us being the same Survivor, and evidence pointing towards us being a different one. There's more evidence saying we're the same Survivor, though. How did we get onto the Genesis-Ship? No clue.
I wish ark was more like the lore with different factions thriving. Instead it's just cheesing the best strategy and making sure no one else builds up :(
What if the "beams of of light" Raia saw was a supply drop? Here me out, what if supply drops were pods survivers were being delivered in and the ark gave them loot/weapons? I know thats not true but it was a hypothetical i thought of.
Thank you for the announcement of the next Ark Survivor Stories Ned but why would you choose Super Bowl Sunday? You better release the video around 3:00 P.M other wise every American Football fan is going to wait until the following Monday to watch it, especially if they are in the Philadelphia or Kansas City areas.
@@NeddyTheNoodle since i don’t like football, i’m just gonna play ARK and/or Subnautica with a dash of sim racing to top it off so i can avoid my family screaming about people tossing an egg-shaped ball around a field for 4 hours
You can, definitely. It's all in the Explorer Notes, but to go through each and every one, and look at (not to mention memorize) every minute detail is a ridiculous way to tell the story. This isn't the last video, so stay tuned.
@@stelxmarie uhh no you can’t, no way a solo player is ever gonna stumble upon all the notes, most artifact caves have alphas in them, if you start breeding 30 rexes for the fight you’ll get wiped, I’m not talking about “In theory” in reality as a solo player the game doesn’t allow for me to discover stuff myself so I guess I’ll watch this video, they should do something about that
@@thegodofsilence5580 You make a good point, not only do you have to deal with that, but even if you COULD 'hypothetically' collect all of them, let alone half of them- scratch that, a FRACTION of the Explorer Notes is an exhausting experience. It's not worth it for 99.9% of players.
Ned I have a question . How implants get on people which were not respawned by the system/ overseer for example a new born baby. It is created before birth or implanted somehow after?
@@NeddyTheNoodle I can’t wait!! You’re E1 video taught me things I never knew about the lore like I never knew Genesis was referenced at all in the previous maps
@@Lagonbreezey It's not, actually. The plan the URE had for the ARKs was to train super strong Survivors to populate the *reseeded* Earth, kind of like how the Genesis Simulation trains Colonists for Arat. The only problem is that the URE's plan was created assuming Element would eventually go away on Earth- so the ARKs could bring Survivors back down and purge whatever remained- but it never did. It was Helena's plan for The Ones Who Try Again (all players), or at least *our* Survivor, to follow in her footsteps and make it down to Extinction in order to slay the remaining Titans so she can start the Reseed Protocol.

Neddys impressions of crazy Edmund is the best.
The part at 14:02 had me laughing so much. Ned you make ARK's story far more entertaining than it usually would be.
Best part hands down 😂😂😂
The part where you said "That wasn't a question Helena" i died laughing. But I'm really Enjoying the Lore of Ark because of you :)

I knew Rock Well was sick, but you just keep reopening the wound that he's even sicker. Keep it up.

Love what you do, thanks for giving lore lovers a place to go :)
If you hadn't stopped making videos, this probably never would have happened lol. You unintentionally sparked my career. For that, I thank you.
@@NeddyTheNoodle you dont know how happy that makes me, thats why i did it to begin with, keep it up mama
Hahaha love this format! Tho I have to say the little Gordon Ramsey edit blunder at 9:39 really cracked me up 😂😂
Looking forward to the next video!

Great job as usual, Noodleman!! Love your presentation of ARK and the cinematics.
We need matpat from gametheory to cover ark theories and if he did he could learn a lot from you
Hey Arman!
"But hey, that's just a THEORY"
YES OMG AAAAAAAA

Nah. You the homie, but I'd rather he didn't. Let this credit stay entirely with Ned's channel.
I can't wait for more of these, they're amazing and entertaining as hell
Long enough to look like a raisin 😂😂😂😂 I love it Ned 😂😂 another awesome video. This series has been amazing! Keep it going!
You always blow me away with these videos, excellent, truly excellent!
Very hilarious when rockwell talks XD
Who's all waiting to see this?
Its hard to understand why he likes this so much until you watch the videos and get addicted yourself
Keep up these amazing videos
I love them all and learn so much
14:40 the background Text made me and my friends cry-lauth XDDDD
Been waiting all week for this. Your videos bring me a meaning to play ark with my busy life.
Can’t wait for the second part of the aberration episode.
These videos are great! They make me want to play on a roleplay server
Another wonderful little condensed lore video. I love these so much!
Wildcard, where are our tek katanas! Love the content and keep up the great work! (Can’t wait for the survival stories)
Bro 10 out of 10 amazing work that you put in that and those others that helped every vid you post just makes me more excited 😆🤣

i see now why the ark animated series will be hella good, this story is barely touched in the game, it NEEDS clarity through a more greater source
Amazing as always! Love your videos, really have brought the story of the game to life!
great video neddy

I already did in the last video.

im ready! liked in advance coz we all know its gonna be good! xD
Still waiting on the Aberration lore compiliation.
What's " ascending?" Are people supposed to keep jumping from one ARK to the next?
Mhm.
It’s supposed to train them for the challenge survivors will face on extinction.
@@Lagonbreezey It's not, actually.
