"I did not wish to spend my life looking at myself in the mirror, I wished to look out the window, and see myself as well." -Horatio prime circa turn 1 (probably)
@@liquidshark4918 Beauty is purely perspective and from Horatio's perspective HE is already beautiful. As the only beautiful person in his mind it is his duty to bring beauty to the galaxy.
I just realised the huge irony of Horatio. He spend the trailer talking about "seeing beyond the mirror", and seeing beauty in difformity, basically, spiritual/metaphysic beauty, the brain, the spirit. Yet, his clones are clearly talking about physical beauty (one of them had a scar and was shamed for it all his life). He cloned himself to teach humanity not to judge on appearance, for his clone to fall into the same pit. It also coincide with the fact Horatio Prime has been imprisonned, and now, the leader of the Horatio is a clone.
That clone was closer to Horatio Prime than most of his batch, poor Farella EM8 Mario 22 Farella -EM8 Mario 22 is the survivor of a brief rebellion of poorly batched clones that tore through his childhood center, leaving his friends and teachers dead and Farella's young face hideously scarred. As growing up with a marred countenance in Horatio society seriously damaged Farella's academic and professional prospects, he searched for decades before discovering risky Endless grafting sciences in an abandoned medical station that permitted him to reproduce his face perfectly. Though on the surface he now appears healed and happy, .....the trauma of rejection, contempt and isolation has certainly left its invisible scars.
Malryck The entirety of the Horatio is contradictory, also who says that his idea of perfection is right + there are more contradictory points, but I do not wish to go to the semantics of how perfection is in the end unachievable, due to the nature of reality and the inherent chaos it always brings and to achieve his desired state of equilibrium is kinda impossible with the way he is going about it
Mattia Salvetti They operate within another dimension of reality and thus their reality is fairly imperceptible to us, I’d say that what you propose could be possible, *but* without a better understanding of the riftborn and the principles their reality operates on I can’t rule out that it can just be a chaotic mess of shapes
I mean, Amplitude knocked it out if the park with this "race". They made a race that on the surface looks hilarious. But then you look at the logic behind it and it is both tragic and grandiose. The dude here was shunned and rejected, so he struggled and worked hard, and through a combination of talent, wit, insanity and luck, he managed not only to become rich and powerful beyond anyone else. He went beyond and CREATED, with his own hands, his own race, his own people, his own world. What can a man do more to prove everyone wrong? What can a man accomplish more than that?
And yet in all that incredible accomplishment, he created exactly what he hated most. He created a society that values physical perfection over all else. He set out to destroy the standards he fell short of, and instead created a different standard for others to fall short of. Gosh I love this race, it's so good.
@@dawsonlaughren730 not to mention he himself became a victim of his own regime, since its implied that Horatio Prime isnt the original creator but just a far more scheming and calculating clone and has imprisoned the original somewhere secret.
Be careful who you call ugly in middle school. He might become a trillionaire with access to Endless biotech and a clone army. Seriously, this guy would probably be a Level 10 in the Guild of Calamitous Intent, if not a potential member of the Council of Thirteen.
@@destruction42k No, that is reference to Venture Brothers, cartoon satirizing comic book and pop-culture tropes. Guild of Calamitous intent are the designated bad guys of that world. Designated, because they take it as a job, and many of them aren't that evil.
It's easy to make fun of a character like this because, "Wow, narcissism," but think about the raw ambition and intellect that it takes just to do a fraction of what Horatio did. One would be hard-pressed to argue that he wasn't a superior form of life.
For just a moment, just this moment, as I looked up at the planet from the window pane of my starship, overlooking the lush yellow and green terran planet, I saw a blinding light, twinkling all over the surface, so bright that the crew around me came to a halt, their busy lives interrupted by this one beautiful sight. And we felt peace. ...Then we found out the source was just the planet's Horatios lifting their sunglasses to the sky and we promptly left the system soon after.
the 4th minute is so insanely epic. The idea of a spurned individual, casting aside logic and reason in his quest to become accepted by society, finally finds it in his own, deranged way, is a fantastic story element, and this theme goes alongside that journey beautifully.
Hortatio: "Why do you not like me? Is it because im Ugly?" Me: "No its because your completely narcissistically Crazy, plus you turned my Neighbors into Genetic Slurpies" BTW This is my Favorite theme in Endless space 2 >w>
I assume he/they believes his/their beauty is non-material, and thus pure. Can't really argue with that logic seeing how intelligent he/they is/are, the benefits of a massive brain. Though from the trailer it seems Horatio was bullied about his big head as a child so this may have all just been a "I'll show them all!".
It's probably the latter, yes, although Horatio does have a large brain. As for belief, all Horatio believe that they are the brightest and most gorgeous race, and base their hierarchy on this aspect. And regardless of the appearance, every Horatio uses the masculine specification in third person.
I can't argue with any of the facts presented here, though I really hope the We, the Horatio remains a force to be reckon with, forever. No one should be bullied, yeah sure... spreading your likeness to the universe is way too grandiose and insane. But he was called insane before and he overcame all his peers, because who else would create a star empire, from nothing using only his willpower? the money and massive intellect helped too. Though, he's truly perfect. Too bad ingame they're bunch of expansionist devils that get utterly mad if you colonize something near them, something even scarier is when The Horatio and the Unfallen form an Alliance, they always ally for some reason..
Humans only differ from each other in about 0.01% of our DNA (and we differ in about 1% to chimps), 0.000000000001% of would be the difference between adult twins due to copying errors and random mutations.
Horatio is more than just Perfection, it is a Dream, of making things Right, and Perfect, at the same time... It is not about Horatio that is Born perfection, but it is about Horatio who strives for Perfection. Horatio may be beautiful in their appearences, but perfect, but perfect, only Prime and the Might of their Empire of which they Construct, are as Holy and as Beautifull as it's Prime, and the Creation of Horatio themselves.
@@carlosalbertolararojas3610 Not just the narrator, Horatio is supposed to be the player character (in single player mode). He was the one chosing what to build and where, ordering the other survivors around, and healing them when they were hurt, all of which being the stuff the player do. So cannonically, the main character of endless dungeon is horatio, it's just that since you see everything through his eyes, you never see him himself.
He is quite beautiful, though. I miss this kind of stuff. Smug pretty boy/lady 'god emperors'. The old cheesy Stargate stuff had that, can't think of anything else 'recent' and the 90s are 30 years ago.
Wanting to see beauty in uniqueness, deformity and the mind Replicating yourself indefinitely to enforce perfect conformity that of Horatio is a tragedy, not a conquest campaign
Create custom factions with all horatio features, add some letter after the last letter to make their name distinct (horation, horatior, horatiog, etc.). Repeat several times until you get as many as you want.
I was doing other things when this came on and i thought "Huh. Not too often i get the FURI soundtrack" This sounds a good deal like one of the walking tunes in it.
His head is not a deformity. Wtf? His skull is like 2 x as big for a super brain. I know a classmate who has a tested IQ of 86, super genius, near the maximum of 100 yet small skull. Now imagine he has Horatio brain, his IQ will be a perfect 100.
I dunno I see women with horn, batwins and tail are hot. Snake lady, cat lady or canine lady are ok. But still I cannot comprehended why having a bald conehead is feaking fabulouse.
I tried to give this a 3 out of 5 stars in my library, but a fleet of ships appeared above my house and charged their weapons. They went away when I set its rating to 5 stars.
then how do events like "ecologists are attracted to anomalies which increases their fertility" make sense? why would there be more clones made on planets with anomalies? i'm overthinking it probably
He's a man who wants to bring the galaxy under his rule and remove everyone who doesn't match his standarts of beauty and intelligence and make overmen dominate it. He's Adolf Hitler on space steroids. Best faction ever.

I like that "cycling" sorta thing going on in the background, sounds scientific and fitting
What's more inflated, Horatio's ego or his head?
Jokes aside, song is excellent. Very fitting of Perfection incarnate that is Horatio the First.
His ego fits just as much as his head, it's not inflation, it's called perfection.
