Ancient EVIL Gods of Mass Effect | Leviathan Species COMPLETE Breakdown
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ส.ค. 2024
- The Leviathan species of Mass Effect is the most enigmatic and important for both the past and future of the Milky Way galaxy. This complete breakdown of this Mass Effect species will show how the Leviathans led to the Reapers, and changed the fate of all other species for perhaps a billion years.

Do you think leviathans will be the main antagonist for mass effect 4
Shepard is my Battlemaster 🫡💪
Leviathan 1 : Serve species are so stupid, they make AI which eventually destroy them.
Leviathan 2： Let's make our own AI to make sure they won't do it again.
Leviathan 1: Sounds like a plan
😂😂😂
"you son of a bitch, i'm in!!"
I absolutely love the leviathans. The reapers are terrifying but their creators have this "we are out there watching" kind of vibe and it creeps tf out of me lol.
I do think they should be the main antagonist of a potetial sequel to the games if they ever do it. Them and / or a resurgent Prothean empire lead by Javik.
One time in art class I drew a Leviathan silhouette in water beneath an American battleship and showed it to my classmate then they were like "Oh hell nah".
That either speaks about your skill, or how truly creepy this bastard is. Or both.
@@somerandomguy.3884Probably both haha. I’m only just learning about these beasts but I must say, they’re easily on par with the brethren moons from Dead Space 3 and it’s DLC Dead Space Awakened, most creepy indeed.
thats lame as fuck. trying to make grade school shit impressive.
@@arthurfleck629 I still think the Moons are creepier. At least the Leviathans aren't omnicidial and can be reasoned with to some degree. That and the Leviathans were actually defeated in the past, the Moons in Dead Space WON in the end once again.
SHOW US YOUR ART
Ok, hear me out on this:
What if the cycles are really the reapers searching for the rest of the Leviathans? Think about it: they know the Leviathans need a race subjugated to build stuff for them, so allowing 50,000 years for that species to mature to the point of being useful to the Leviathans. So the Reapers come kill everyone and absorb the sum total knowledge of all the civilizations and use it to find the Leviathans.
The Leviathans are so slippery the Reapers could never be sure they got them all, so the cycles perpetuate endlessly.
This is one of the coolest theories I've heard on this
I really appreciate that you are discovering species from other franchises, keep up the good work.
Leviathans are probably my favorite race in the ME series. The humanoid races are interesting, but imagine the level of technology the Leviathans must have considering how long they've been around. I wouldn't put it past the Leviathans to be such masters of biotics and Element Zero technology that the Leviathans probably don't need ships to travel through space. I wish we got to know more of them as a culture beyond the eldritch masters of the galaxy.
I wouldn't be surprised if they can directly eat Eezo and use it directly to power such biotics and telepathic abilities. They are after all, the progenitors of all mass effect technology.
maybe they will feature more in the next mass effect
@@jakegibbs9638 i hope it only a little bit i like the thought that we can't understand them not just how alien they are but how advance to the point they themselfs are able to transfers space with nothing but biotics this parts headcannon though like eldritch horror
So glad i just finished my 1st play through of the ME Trilogy before this video came out.
Why? Were you……indoctrinated? 😮
LOVE the Mass Effect content, man! This was a great breakdown 🤘🏻
Can't wait for more Mass Effect content. One of my other favorite sci-fri franchises outside star wars.
So much lore you can make vids on. Alreadt covered the elder race the leviathans. From species amd everything on them, Humanities future, the tech and vehicles, planets, factions, etc.
"OH my GOD, your gunna make me..breach the darkness " 😂
You really have to appreciate the way the Leviathans and Reapers word things. There is something eloquent and poetic about it. But the specific word usage (and definitely the tone of their speech) is just so abnormal. With the god-complex level of apathy on top of it all...:shivers:...goodness these things are terrifying antagonists.
Also, it was an incredibly well-done cosmic horror vibe. Especially for me, at least, when you do the DLC mission where you meet living Leviathans. Epic.
Reminiscent of the Flood Gravemind that spoke in verse.
Like there's no emotion, I suppose? And they use the most effective word to describe exactly what they mean to say?
@@bungiecoocoo
Exactly.
@@2eleven40
The coldness of the absolute logic they use, however flawed, is a large part of what I'm describing.
@@aurelcorstan5242 The sheer arrogance of considering their thoughts and motives as unfathomable or beyond comprehension really shows they're still as flawed as any temporary (in the meaning as mortal) conscience though. But it certainly adds to their antagonistic depiction
OMG your covering mass effect! I'm so hyped
Commander Shepard is my Battlemaster, he has no match. I'll follow him to the gates of hell. I'm willing to sacrifice my life for Shepard's Life and the fate of the entire galaxy. He's given me the strength I need, the hope, the trust, love. He made me become a strong woman, brave like him. And I'm sure as hell won't disappoint him. I will always fight for him, always next to him. I respect every decision, every sacrifice he makes. Even I understand his confidence, his willing to get in the frontline, to fight for a batter Galaxy without Reapers.
Every mission we face, every blood drop he drops. He is not only a Soldier but a Pure Warrior. The best Commander I've ever had and I'll follow his steps
Loved this, i wonder if we will see more about Leviathans in future projects
I love this take on Lovecraftian Elditch gods. Still so far beyond us and our abilities to understand, yet still very much of this world. Cosmic horror done very well.
Please consider closing with: "May you be a good Shepard. I should go."
That being said, I didn't notice the your channel - Mass Effect was all I needed to click it. Took me a few seconds but then it felt weird. Mass Effect, yay! That voice, yay! Wait... Awesome that you're looking at Mass Effect too now!
Lol thanks and I do like that idea I hope people get it
@@MetaNerdzLore Oh, Mass Effect fans will get it. No question. While I have your attention, an anecdote: your face reveal was really weird to me. You look quite a bit like a cousin of mine. But you have a very different voice :) Thank you for your great content! Always!
Lucky fricken me! I just started getting into the mass effect lore only about a week ago, and I could only find really one video of substantial info on leviathan! So I'm super excited for this!
The illusive man's past is a fun look through
Keep it coming with the Mass Effect videos
Protheans going live tomorrow at noon EST
Right off the bat, mind control and an ancient tale.
First time seeing metanerdz lore making a Mass effect lore video.
Yeah it is, but have a ton written already
Oh damn y'all are doing Mass Effect now, sweet.
It's amazing to hear the different theories on how we think and how our "mind and body" work... Writers can find some creative McGovern's and how they use them...
Great timing I just started replying the series
I hated the Leviathans.
It really pissed me off how one of the biggest and scariest mysteries in the game, The Reapers, were explained.
Like bruh. Keep the mystery.
"THEY WEREN'T GODS, THEY WERE CEPHALOPODS!"-Dr.Miller.
As much as the leviathans are cool and interesting with an mystery surrounding them they and the star child Rob the mystique and unknowable nature of the reapers. Once you explain Cthulhu you loose something important.
Javik: "BOMBACLOT!!"
Loved that DLC, it's one of me favorites in the series. So Lovecraftian.
Leviathans: everyone keeps building AI and being wiped out by them.
Also Leviathans: I know, let's build our own AI. What could possibly go wrong?
BioWare: Makes the Reapers creators an entire race of Cthulhu's with god tier powers included.
Also BioWare: Makes them complete and utter morons with no problem solving skills at all.
Hubris and pride are so dangerous precisely because they have the power to make smart people do stupid things.
Please do more mass effect videos
Yeah have a ton planned
Cool
Who do you think would win in all out war? The Locust horde at their prime from GOW, or the Chimera from Resistance?
Chimera from Resistance
Yes
Do you think leviathans will be the main antagonist for mass effect 4
Probably not. Only a hand full of them actually still exist.
@@christophergroenewald5847 that we know of, well I thinks it’s ether them or evil EDI
@@user-os9gq1yt9ithe destroy ending is the canon. So can’t be edi, she died with the rest of the synthetics.
I think Bioware is the main enemy of ME4.
can u add the vids to spotify
Hope Studio Nut gets to work on the 2nd season
which ME was that underwater search for a leviathan in? It has been a few years since I played ME but that is not ringing any bells for me.
DLC I forget the name
It's in ME3 in the Leviathan DLC.
Wish for Templin Institute's Dawn of Victory stuff, please?
Nah
Mess Effect :)
Here's a better way this little device can you call the control trip Wilbur that your species Pacific weed AI from revolting is standard if you can control the temperature
So........what exactly *IS* Tribute? 😅
if we could see it we would kill or eat it like the buffalo and or the dinosaurs .this video earlier showed that the dinosaurs couldnt fight for ish
mass effect three couldve had the leviathans be the big bads of the franchise for 4 but we got poopdrameda instead
Leviathan 1: Hey Bob, do you know how we conquered those milions worlds?
Leviathan 2: Yep, what about it?
L1: And do you remember how many of them created an AI that then rizen up and destroyed them?
L2: Like 95% of them, Why are you asking?
L1: I have a great idea. We will create our own AI, that will be smarter than anything and anyone in this galaxy.
L2:...
L1:...
L2:...
L1:...
L2: That's a great idea. Let's do it. What could possibly go wrong?
Is the Shepard sounds offensive paradox of self choice or is it just me?
Logical conclusion all all slavers must be purged
DESTROY IS THE ONLY LOGICAL ENDING
When Bioware made a better Lovecraftian game than expressly Lovecraftian games.
for sure I really want to make a video on how the mental aspect is at the core, and it is all done so subtle and perfect at times, this is in part why the Shepard is indoctrinated theory is great, but I keep seeing little details to add to that for a future video
@@MetaNerdzLore it's sad that before the "extended cut DLC" that the indoctrination theory made more sense than the actual ending. While I loved the DLC for that game, I still feel like in a weird way we were cheated by not having the indoctrination theory as canon.
how abput that oil stuff i bet if it came from something unlike whale blubber they would of called it something else.
Our servents intelligent machines that desroyed them....lets dp the same thing.😅
RIP BioWare and mass effect.
Both are still around
Noooooooo Don't remind me of ME3 Multiplayer! BRing me back I wann go back god damn I miss it. Ahhhhhhhhh
It makes perfect sense that all of the religions were worshiping the leviathans all along. That's why most of the prayers have gone unanswered and were simply food for the beasts. Sounds like Mass Effect has copied our universe. Great video, thanks.
We're worshipping cosmic beasts too?! Crazy revelation 😮
It’s not implied all religions were worshipping them. Especially since any human religion wouldn’t be because the leviathans have been gone since the cycles started. At least millions of years.
@@joshuacollins9316 If so, thank the heavens Shepard did a good job.
The one problem i have is this
Machines or ai dont have emotions
If the directives given dont involve smth bad in a convoluted way
They shouldn't even care to do anything
They dont have a concept of time, feelings, achievement, etc
They just do the directive most efficiently and wait for new ones
Even ai
I feel like nobody considers this
❤😂😂🎉🎉🎉😢😢😢😮😮😅
The leviathans are by far the stupidest part of mass effect and i wish they didnt exist. Not only did they remove the mystery from the reapers, whic made them way scarier, they also made the explanation incredibly dumb.
Maybe the hottest mass effect take aside from saying Andromeda was good.
Hard disagree
I agree. I cannot think of a plausible evolutionary tree that would lead to them either. Their existence is absurd as well as their actions.
Yeah. Never seen a big bad yet that became better by having its origins explained.
lets establish some truths here a thrall which was what the leviathan explained first is giving their serfs right for development. most basic would be a right to have kids the right to make their own house and the right to make their own society as long as they are on call for the master to serve in what is needed like wars and trade! the possesed woman is not a thrall she is a SLAVE. there is a wast WAST distance between the two!
another one this is just lore! they dont need element zero because that is what they use to commune! natural occourence of it throughout their bodies is what gives them psycic powers! (oh he is trying not to spoil things for the achievement hunters out there i just thought everyone knew since it would naturally come if you played the game but 5.3 percent of gamers have achieved this! is really low)
wow not becoming the one true god in this game is just wrong! 0.02 pct of players!
the paradox of ai is that it would forever stagnate if not inspired by the strugles of biological life! it might be sentient! but it has no imagination! it cannot dream untill it gets a soul the first paradox of true sentient ai! if it can't dream it is still just a machine and is dependent on the biologicals in this universe to evolve!
you can give it a soul in this game and become a true god yourself because you are the soul! still humans being humans would never pick that option thats why we 3 where the only ones!
mass effect isnt a cthulhu game at fuckin all.
Yeah it is you literally have the main guy say it's cthulu time right before he cthulus all over the place
As meta said you cthulhu all over the place
