Literally the quest where warframe story started going into sh*t The sacrifice is about nothing, its so clear to see that this quest was scrapped like 2 times over and by the end it even failed to adhere to its own theme Its an enjoyable warframe loreparade that fails to drive any meaning or story forward and ultimately is the first quest that failed to deliver on its core idea(because they had to scrap the original idea) Ever since Sacrifice, warframe lore quests are passable 3/5s at best, and make 0 fkin sense while before it was carefully crafted, full of symbolism and dripping from strong themes. Not anymore
@@federicoleonardi43 no, you can't delete him...at all. when you subsume Warframes he's the go to Warframe....in the story....he's the go to Warframe 😏
I started out Warframe as a volt. But I hated my choice so much that I ended up not playing warframe for years until the sacrifice quest came along and I farmed a rhino frame to use until I got umbra, now I just use umbra.
"Ordis would be happy to hear how depressed you are!" Still the best lines Ordis have said until now Also can't believe they made the most lore heavy frame and then never talk about it ever again
i'm sad that new war didn't even mention umbra ONCE. it was just about some dude named balls and an abusive, very confusing relationship that almost destroyed the entire system. I hope they bring back umbra at some point atleast
This, the DOOM reference you made, and the fact that he's essentially a mix of Doomguy and Chief with a dash of organic-tech Robocop, is why I equip my Umbra with Tigris and Aksomati Prime. Though when Umbra's own theme started playing, that really bolted itself into my memory; it's why I've merely 'saturated' his colours instead of customizing him to my own style initially, only did that when I had the option to get a 4th slot for fashion. Examples: 1: Slayer+Chief (Tigris/Corinth and Aksomati/Akvasto, Skiajati) 2: Starters (Braton/Paris, Magnus/Spira, Bo (or Prisma Skana if you really want to 'go back') ) 3: Misc (Hikou, Tatsu, Hespar, Mausolon*) This is also assuming you have the Prime counterparts of these weapons (as/when obtainable, if possible). Reason for Tatsu is for NeiR: Automata reference. Hikou Prime is more a Genji/Overwatch reference. Hespar is a generic grim reaper thing but also fits nicely on Umbra. *Mausolon requires the Archgun Deployer from Fortuna's Profit-Taker bounties and a Gravimag, but this adds to the DOOM sensation by a metric. 4: Stalker (Dread, Despair, Hate) Shadow 'Prime' (Nataruk, Despair, War) Customize Umbra to somewhat 'inverted' colours, which makes him look much more like Stalker and also base Excal in some ways for this to feel effective. The idea isn't to be another Acolyte, but to be a 'parallel universe' Stalker - a hypothetical timeline where Stalker was Umbra and Umbra was Stalker, is the idea. For extra antagonist energy, consider subsuming a Sevagoth for his Gloom, and replace Radial Javelin in another loadout slot with it. Sacrifice is arguably one of my favourite quests because of Umbra and how Ballas' Vitruvian reveals how Hunhow learned of where the Tenno where kept, and showing Natah herself for the first time. After that I always wanted the option to have Umbra lounging in the Orbiter as continued proof that he's still independent, at least at the time. Now there's a lot of other stuff that could definitely benefit with him being involved in my opinion, which is why I bring him to any Landscapes (as in, the open world zones) or Railjack.
This has to be the largest comment I have ever received and I must say, what a pleasure to read. Much of the information provided I have saved in case it gets me out of a jam some day. Players like you provide newcomers like me with structured and specific advice that aid our experience without being a detriment. Players like you got me back into the game in the first place.
seeing this quest again makes me want to hear the operator talk more, like the combat quotes they're supposed to say in missions, having more say in quests, etc.
idk why ballas thought we couldnt hurt him at the end when its heavily implied we tenno were the ones to bring down the orokin empire as for lotus being a sentient that is pointed out in the natah quest. something you had to do to progress in the star chart guess you forgot huh
"Even I make mistakes, like you." This is probably the one line that sums up Ballas the best of all his quotes. The double meaning alluding to him, a golden god, making mistakes in his otherwise flawless plans; creating umbra, that being a big mistake in itself, but also alluding to umbra being a mistake of his creation.
Watching this after it popped up on my recommended made me remember my time playing this quest, and honestly has got me wanting to return to warframe after going on hiatus on it for quite a bit. Your content is absolutely amazing purely as I feel like you connect yourself with players who've played the game for so long to help them take a trip down memory lane or simply inspire new players to play this beautifully crafted game. Congratulations sir you've earned a new follower💕. I hope to see more warframe content from you soon🤍, thank you fellow Tenno
I mainly use umbra. It's super cool. And it fights without an operator. My friend didn't even know that and he's played for a long time. I've only played maybe a month
@@chipin1526 the execution was really nice, and it was a good vibe to play through, my main critique is that it kinda is just there and doesnt weave narrative or even adhere to its own theme like previous quests. We theorized so much "what we will need to sacrifice omg???" and its been dragged like a honeyed string for years only for the 'finished' released, version to be a n+1th rewrite that doesnt even carry the theme of sacrifice *anywhere* in it. Is it ballas's sacrifice of loyalty to the orokin? I can hamfist it into a few places but im grasping at straws trying, while before, that was not the case and even small sidequests flashed out their theme with precision and grace
Still one of my favorite warframes I am a person that enjoys playing solo and umbra's ability to act on its own free will separate of the operator is perfect for players like me I don't have to worry about my Warframe just standing there he follows me around and he is deadly accurate with any weapon you give him not to mention that he can willingly use his abilities at any time and they do not consume energy he's just awesome all around for a solo player
Love this quest. After you complete it then you're stuck with "Robo-lotus" as your mission guide until you complete "The New War." For people who played this content right when it was released it was like 4 years real time waiting while being stuck with "Robo-Lotus" Or for people like my GF who doesn't play much she's been stuck with "Robo-lotus" this whole time like 6 years lol
I've played it through several times on multiple platforms, though I need to play it again on Playstation to get the somachords. Will gladly do it, though, such a great quest.
Primary, secondary if you don't have a primary equipped, melee if you don't have primary or secondary equipped. Will also use his abilities (aside from exalted blade) every now and then, including any of them replaced with a helminth ability. Very fun to play with, i used to run around in my operator with umbra, my moa and my on call crew/spectres following me as a mini squad - especially good if you put sevagoth's gloom ability on umbra to give everyone some lifesteal since if he uses it it will just stay active until you transfer back into him.
Thanks for this. All I'll say about Warframe's story is , few narrators are trustworthy, even if they believe what they say. Ember Primes Codex entry was early evidence of that and some account that are given, don't seem to make sense.
I started playing wf near launch. I've done all the quests with long breaks from the game in-between and I can definitely say I have no fooking idea what's going on.
Warframe story is so awesome and gorgeous but what is keeping me away from coming back is the amounts of grind I have to do even if I just want to play the story.
Feel you but tbh I personally don’t think it’s really a lot of grinding, I just started seriously playing it last week and i’m already Mastery 6 on the Chains of Harrow questline, real fun game
@@jeffreydavidson5161 Styanax is a very good all-rounder, CC and damage with his 1, armor shredding and self healing with his 2, allied energy and shield generation with his 3, and raw damage with his ultimate
@@DroneQuadcopter my second is Nidus prime, going to a high level mission I easily get up to one-hundred stacks and just decimate everything I hardly even need my guns.
@@Averyjohnson336 cool, I am nearly immortal dragon using 1000% for each buff on 3rd abi + with nearly 1900 energy when in full combo I have additional 4560 HP in form of an energy which last forever thanks to and above mention abilities, but Chroma is my 2nd beastie because it is a dragon :)
damn. got sukered by thumbnail. this dude has outfits, and ships i dont even got after 6 years of playing. to be fair, im a filthy casual who hops on and off. mostly because xbox keeps crashing for me.
I have Warframes amazing community to thank for that ☺️ I have met many veterans, some of which later became friends and moderators and they are always willing to drop me some goodies if I ask nicely. At the time of recording I had just over 200 hours, which isn't a small number, however imo compared to the majority of regular players its not that much. Regardless, hope you enjoyed the video homie 🤙

It still boggles me just how fcked up of a punishnent Ballas made that poor guy go through.
maybe cruel, but he became Umbra, better than death...
Still hands down the best quest even after new war for me MAN UMBRA NEED SOME LOVE MAN
Umbra CANNOT be removed from the inventory, suggesting him being potentially needed in a future quest…

man, still one of the best quests, i still cry on the that the operator transfers into umbra
I dont know but somehow i cried at that moment the music the story everything was r roller coster of emotion for me hands down the best quest
seeing this quest again makes me want to hear the operator talk more, like the combat quotes they're supposed to say in missions, having more say in quests, etc.
I wish the operator had more voice options.

Hek we could even say its the motto of Warframe, "Everything is Balass' fault"
This game is a surprisingly dark game special when you dive into the lore
That’s was great! That was epic actually I didn’t know they changed the sacrifice lmao
I remember when The Sacrifice was released, freaking wild!!

Fyi with umbra he stays active even when u r transfered out
Thanks :D so does he just use your primary when you transfer out? or he like WuClones where they use whatever u weren't using?
Primary, secondary if you don't have a primary equipped, melee if you don't have primary or secondary equipped. Will also use his abilities (aside from exalted blade) every now and then, including any of them replaced with a helminth ability.

@@shadowmaker680 sometimes if you use exalted balde before transferring umbra will keep it but it hasn't been that reliable for me
Umbra is my absolute most favorite frame.
I like your vids

Warframe story is so awesome and gorgeous but what is keeping me away from coming back is the amounts of grind I have to do even if I just want to play the story.

Alternate Title: Ordis making god jokes for 20 minutes
THE ONLY THING THEY FEAR IS YOU
It’s funny how well known the DOOM franchise is. I mean I don’t even play DOOM games but even I know it’s music and this quote.
Dax like a clan warriors like mandalorian clan
how do you even get wukong prime as a beginner
Scorch a frame you should play is revenant it deals high damage
Funny you should say that, just after this quest me and some homies grinded Rev Prime and BOY is he Fun :D
I still prefer wukong or baruuk TBH but I also like using styanax

Sacrifice is 2nd place. Warframe players know who takes number 1
Enjoyed the vid!
best game in game history
