So where exactly do the Nosalis come from and what kind actually exist. So As usual lets pregame some Metro Exodus with Metro 2033 and Last Light Nosalis Biology Explained | Behavior, Morphology, Evolution, and Variants

Roanoke Gaming love your vids man! The level of detail you go into with these lore videos is so interesting! I love dead space and Halo which is how I found your channel.
Roanoke Gaming can u make vedio about the drink from sunsetoverdrive
Roanoke Gaming dude you rule,this is the kind of stuff I looooove keep up the amazing work 😁
Can't wait for the next part :P
Roanoke Gaming I would love for you to do a morphology of vampires /werewolves

They've made great strides in their anti gravity invisible suits
Roanoke Gaming Humanity is doomed...
@@RoanokeGamingthe nasolis looks like my brother when he wakes up
WOOT WOOT another new video, luckily my notification thingy worked, great work on the vid yet again keep up the good work man!
Excellent! Glad its working! and thanks for the compliment bro!
The Plated Nosalis actually is in-game in the *original* Metro 2033 (as in not Redux), and you can fight at least two of them on your way to D6! They're really cool! Aaaand also really tough...
I didnt know that. I played metro 2033 and one day ago metro 2033 redux. I went totally paranoid through the cave section, nothing happened. Akward
Can you please do more metro, I'm super interested in this series
Yes I can! I definitely intend to cover more!
great vid bruh
Thanks bro!
I have the bell clicked and I don't get notifications either.
TH-cam is throwing salt in my game lol I wonder what the point of a notification bell is if it doesn't work???
Great video, as always! I wanted to tell you that the pink nosalises are actually young ones and the dark type are the adults. Also the normal nosalises are males and the flying ones are females. I can't wait for the next videos! Good luck...
One more thing, I'm Paul and I plan to become your patron next year!
Thanks bro! I will actually use that info in part 2!

Honestly

Just attac
can you do the application biopsy with this please please
Application biopsy?
Nosalis tough but Artyom tougher
Russian vs Giant Shrew = Russian with Shrew stew
Roanoke Gaming In mother Russia Nosalis doesn't eat Artyom, Artyom eats Nosalis
@@Optimusprime56241 savage
I was pissed im metro exodus when artyom is almost killed by some regular nosalis
ManicOpake oof
The only place you see the plated Nosalis in Metro 2033 is in the Darkstar level. Right after you go through a blast door and get separated from the group of rangers after it shuts behind you. They actively avoid your flashlight and attack unrelenting whenever you turn it off. Note that they only appear in the original game since 2033 redux replaced them with spiderbugs.
they sadly cut that from redux :/
Yeah that is pretty sad, but you could get someone that can texture and make mods pretty well and they could make a retexture for it
I was mystified by the removal of the plates nosalis for spiderbugs as well. While it kinda made sense in remembering Artyom at some point in a journal in Last Light mentioned suspecting the creatures existed before the nukes in only the deepest and darkest places, it removed a lot of the tension and fear of that section for me. Not knowing when the plated nosalis was going to jump me again was top for tension.
Yeah, it was insane they cut them really. Since they are actively using stealth attacks to fight you and deal quick damage while being quick themselves. (Real pain on hardcore without the Volt Driver)
I just played through 2033 on ranger hardcore, and I gotta say the spider bugs in that section are no trouble at all. I honestly forgot about the plated ones, but I prefer the ass whooping they dish out as opposed to the bugs. More of a challenge idk
Legit russian here. Gotta ruin your fun, Moscow should be pronounced Mos-Qua. Some minor interesting stuff, in Russian Nosalis is often referd as "Упырь" - Literally "Ghoul" or slang for nasty looking/acting men. Some childern says that his dad is a stalker(ranger) and that he saw "Big Momma" of nosalis.
If only I could hear it! lol but thats for the extra info bro!
In Russian it’s is pronounced moscova
in russian, i believe it is more of moskva
@@oedipusrex353 in croatian we say it Moskva then again we also slavs so probably we are saying it same or atleast realy similar
It’s a English video and we say Moscow
Patroling mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
I do not envy you in that situation haha
Mojave almost patrols makes you wish for a winter in the nuclear.
LMAO sounds like the sort of translation I'd see in a STALKER fan mod.
@@RoanokeGaming speaking about Mojave, please do bios on the creatures in the fallout franchise
Hmmm, considering how US-centric Fallout is, now I kind of wonder if Metro could be what's going on in Moscow in the meantime.
In Soviet Russia mutated vodka drinks you
69 nice
Woohoo more metro lore happy days
Hope you enjoy it bro!
suub to sub
The plated nosalis was encountered in the original version of 2033 in only one section on the way to D6 when Artyom gets separated from his team and must navigate these extremely dark corridors where you do almost mini-boss fight style battles with only a handful of these guys. Hence the glowing eyes to allow them to see and make them more distinguishable in the dark. I was rather disappointed that they replaced these guys with the spider scorpion like creatures that were added in Last Light. Still kinda prefer the original 2033 to the redux version, myself. Wish I still had it and could play it.
The redux is still pretty good but I wonder why they replaced them with scorpion spiders?
Same here
"I'm not here to fuck spiders" in a whole new definition
That plated nosalis as I remember was quite literally unkillable.
You can still get a original copy for Metro 2033 on PC if you find a Steam key for it. Just google ''Metro 2033 cd key Steam'' and there you go. Make sure you do not purches the redux version (again)
As they say, if it bleeds, it can make you bleed.
everyone is bleeding now!
I love the Metro games, really underrated shooters.
Seeing this makes me wish you would make some videos about the enemies from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series as well.
I do plan to get into stalker later!
Same. Though the shooting aspect is not the only thing that sells it for me. I love the story of the game as well. Along with the visuals of the environment and the creatures.
I enjoy the suggestion of the novel. That there is supernatural element. That perhaps the older creatures of a lost world. Woken by humanities destruction
that is a pretty interesting theory on it
Plated nosalis? I think there is One later in the Metro campaign once you are off to find the nukes to blow up the dark ones. Atleast i Remember i had One yellow eyed bastard that was the size of a nosalis and took autoshotgun magazines to the face After i was seperated from the group.... man that Thing was scarier than the Demons...
In the Original Metro 2033
*Nanosuit 2.0* or the *black goo* mutagen from Prometheus. Only a wish
I may be able to cover those in the future!
I love the idea that the mutants in each game look so drastically different because they're all the result of rapid mutation, and are constantly changing. In the case of the Nosalis, they're not a singular species, but a whole clade of closely related, but morphologically distinct animals that work together in coalitions with a loose social structure, essentially trying to mimic and overthrow humanity.
such an Nostalgic game
Arfishiro Anatianaru it isn't that old
Its a great game that's for sure
“The demons cannot get into the tunnels”
0:30 : *sure about that?”
Man the nosalis is one of the fell creatures in games that gave me real nightmares
I don't blame you, they are kind of gross looking creature
I never died to the bandits, the nazis, the Reds, and other humans. Spiders? No problem. Demons? Run like hell to cover. A pack of snouts? Well fuck, I'm out of ammo and still outnumbered...
Also I just wanted to add that from what I can tell is that each one is probably from a different species that just happens to be a convergent evolution type of thing you when while usually creatures that are considered part of a converter or creatures that have convergent evolution as a part of their species sometimes two creatures can have a totally different ancestral ties yet look very very similar like to the point of being considered identical
So basically theorizing that they are sub species aye?
Roanoke Gaming yes like the normal one is a shrew but the stronger one might be a rat flying ones might be bats and so on. They all have very similar body plans and could properly explain why they are similar but not the same. Though they could be guini pigs look at the skull shape.
Roanoke Gaming if you have time go check out my comment on your demon video.
To think your cut little pet, now eats you.
well our cats would eat us if they were bigger haha
Your channel deserves to be much bigger! I love your stuff, lots of variety and always great content.
Thanks bro! I am glad you think so! I will keep bringing the goods haha
I encountered the plated Nosalis in Metro 2033 in one of those tunnels before you reach D6. There's a point there where you separate from your squad. The first door you go through you meet your first plated Nosalis. I had a Volt Driver so I enjoyed killing that thing, but apparently it can be stared down like a Librarian.
The second one is just before you reach your squad again, in a place that is pitch black. I found it feasting on a corpse. This one I chose to sneak past.
This is great
I don't really have anything special to add I just like these videos
thanks for the compliment bro! I am glad you like the vids!
Do the spiders or shrimps next
The bear is going to be the next metro video but after that the shrimp are up!
Roanoke Gaming I haven’t ever came across the bear yet, I’m guessing I’m gonna need a lot of bullets
You cant even kill it with what you have haha
Roanoke Gaming piss, and I thought bullet proof spiders were bad
Yesssss metro 2033. I just finished this on hardcore ranger mode! This shit was hard. Filter management boys, that's how you beat it.
Wait until the absolute last suffocation breath before changing the filter haha
Barely made it through dead city
Dr. Krieger just wait until you reach the beginning of the D6 bunker. I've played through it 3 times and each time that's where I was running out of filters. The first time I ran out totally and had to start from a earlier Level.
Roanoke Gaming
Me in the D6 bunker *heavy breathing*
Finished it a couple months ago uwu got stuck on this one level and I just kept dying over and over it was frustrating but all the other levels weren’t too difficult, apart from dying every level here and there ^^
Mas-cow
Finished the last book of the trilogy last month. It was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it. I haven't played the games , but after watching some gameplay I can say that they did a great job recreating the environment and the atmosphere from the book
Except Metro Exodus' story ignores the books, which is something I absolutely hate. I don't get why the hell they created the game that way.
it doesn't ignore the book the last book includes bits from exodus as for why the hell they make the game that way idk ... maybe it's because the author of the books also writes their story and as he said it himself sees the games as an alternative route to the books (he was even the one suggesting the moral system and therfore the ''non canon'' endings of metro 2033 and last light).
So you know before you ''reeee'' at them for not ''following'' the book (wich the do so idk read the last book ) maybe check who writes the story for the metro games first.
Love me some Metro lore. I think it must've went through some rapid mutation because the eyes, whether they're weak or blind, is still on the side. Predators typically have them in the front for depth perception.
I am the first comment, meaning I can say something without anyone finding out what it was...
Yeet
HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT
Roanoke Gaming it’s illegal in the country of Non-Yeetus
Would this creature qualify as a foot soldier?
it could!
You know the craziest thing about the Nosalises?
They didn't even exist in the original book the first game was based on!
Nosalises were mutants invented for the game, but they quickly grew in popularity and pretty much became the *Metro* series's mutant mascot. Seriously, besides possibly Demons or Watchmen, Nosalises are the most recognizable mutant from the franchise.
sometimes when they attack in packs and the first one gets taken out, second or third nosalis actually stops dead in its tracks and starts crawling laterally, trying to get out of the line of fire and change its angle of attack. noticed it a lot in LL on ranger hardcore. thought it was kinda cool in terms of ai behavior, worth mentioning. also in LL in the venice level one of the dudes has a pet nosalis haha.
00:30 Is standing in mid air part of their mutations as well?
Perhaps a wingless winged Nosalis haha I left that in there to see who would catch it!
Weeksauce They possess Anti-Gravity Abilities
Another EPIC video dude.
I'm glad I found this channel.
Thank you Roanoke Gaming, very cool!
Thanks bro! I also like your reference haha and I am glad you found my channel to!
As above, so below. I like the subtle Hermetic pill bro
;)
I remember seeing a dark nosali with glowing eyes in the OG metro: 2033 game. Right after you get stuck and separated in a dark room from your crew in search for the D6. I bring this up because it reminds me of the plaited nosali
And it was very tough to fight the nosali due to it had a lot of health and kept climbing on whole on the roof
perhaps it was a plated nosalis, they were in the OG but not the redux :/
7:07 If I remember right, the plated nosalis appear when you get separated from the squad when going to D6.
unfortunately they arnt in the redux!
Thank you for being the only person to ever pronounce my surname right 😂😂 Garnham and not Graham
when it comes to names I have a sixth sense how to pronounce them, when it comes to cities, More often than not I will pronounce it wrong haha
Roanoke Gaming 😂😂😂 I’m just shit at both I can’t lie
Love your channel, you deserve so many more subs 👌
thanks bro! I hope to get there some day!
You’re welcome!, as someone’s who always been interested in the inner working of organism and creatures ( especially the Necromorph )this channel is perfect for me
Dat glitch tho 0:31
Theyre evolving!
That's what really scares me
Speaking of nuclear apocalypse do the fallout creatures like the deathclaw
I do have those planned for the future!
I am loving this! Keep up the Metro videos comrade.
absolutely bro!
Can you do regular infantry charicters from any game with regenerating health. I mean how do they survive a gunshot to the head
That one might be pure game mechanics
It would be really cool if you could cover some fallout creatures
I am planning on covering fallout a little later down the road!
The Rhino or "Big Mama" is easy to kill, just let her crush all the stone pillars around you until either the cave ceiling or floor (can remember which exactly, probably both?) falls thru and fills with water, sucking both you and her into another part of the cave which should kill her if you haven't used all your ammo to do so already.
Are you planning on covering spiderbugs from this game too?
Yes I am!
Roanoke Gaming great! Can't wait :)
7:00 In the original Metro 2033 game i've encountered plated nosalis in the tunnels when getting into D6 percicely when Artyom is trapped/separated from the squad by the gate, in the following spaces you should encounter plated nosalis.
I dont know perhaps they dont appear in the redux version of the game at all.
Always looking forward to these!
that's excellent to hear!
7:24 IT IS IN ORIGINAL VERSION OF METRO 2033.
So in Redux they changed them by spiders for some fucking reasons and I liked this weird shit more than spiders. (I also played unofficial game)
I will watch this when I come back from the gym( probably a hour) don't go anywhere
Edit:I'm back leg day was a pain I can Bearly walk
Itll be here! haha
The winged nosalis from what I've noticed seem to be female.
Correct!
I just want to say. You’re channel seems like it’s growing abnormally fast. Keep it up. 👍🏾
It does! not sure why I am so lucky but hey youll never hear me complain about it!
Dude, I know there has been a lot of time since you put out this video, but could you tell me what the guitar play in the beginning is called? Also, love your content and your metro videos bring me lots of enjoyment :) keep up the good work.
Why aren’t Nosalis affected by light but the spiders are? (Reference to your explanation on the spider video as to why they’re sensitive to light because of their diet)
the armored nosalis is in the original metro 2033 living in d6 in the remake they got replaced by the spider lair in d6
Apparently when pronouncing Moscow. The first half is just said like the word ‘moss’ but the second half, instead of being pronounced as ‘cow’, is more like the ‘ow’ sound in ‘grow’ it ‘low’. So you were right this time round! 👍🏻
EXCELLENT! Moss-CO
Sweetness, thanks bro!
I laughed way too hard at 9:09. Your reaction to the guy saying something suspicious and then disappearing forever is hilarious to me. It's like part of the lore of this channel now.
I like to keep it real haha I miss that guy! He was around since I had like 20 subs!
0:32 wtf is that Nosalis doing
The Armored Nosalis, you encounter in the Original Metro 2033 (NOT the Redux, the area you encounter it in... was replaced by Spiders in Redux). They're tough as hell, but not really scary... unless you get lost and let the flashlight die.
Witch one is scarier Nosalis or watchmen ot the spiders I would love to hear your thoughts 🤔
great video
thanks man!
This is definitely the best backstory/lore channel
Thanks for the compliment bro! I am happy to hear you think that!
These videos A
are so good u found a great niche and this stuff is awesome
Thanks bro! I am glad you like them!
Roanoke Gaming u should do the prototype monsters and fallout
plated nosalis appeared in the original metro 2033
0:28 failed to explain how they can float midair and reverse without movement 0/10 awful explanation
oh god, the nosalis have surpassed man in their anti gravity technology
Hey this was uploaded on my birthday :D
This videos are super good. And I have an idea: what about making video about Khan.
I may have to cover his lore in the future! and thank you for the compliment!
Pack behavior also suggests intelligence
Ah yes axe body spray has a use in the future
XD I'm laughing so hard right now 0:30
In my opinion Exodus Nosalis deserves it's own video. Theyr design changed a lot and they actually appear to be a different species, since also females are really similiar to males, instead of being a lot different.
Edit: this is also noticed by Miller, wich says those mutants might be related to the ones on Moscow, so they are most likely another species of Nosalis
This channel is growing fast. It's nice to see your great work gaining some well deserved recognition!
It is! I am very lucky to be experiencing this growth period! and I love that people are enjoying the content!
I saw one in it, D6, at the ripped open tunnel entrance if you follow the dead soldier squad
plus someone has been munchin on faces
Because of the nose, and the pink skin on a regular Nosalis, I always thought they were domesticated Pigs brought underground by humans that escaped, and mutated.
a lot of peeps think that but they are actually canon wise either moles or shrews
@@RoanokeGaming well, guess you learn something new every day.
You should talk about the factions in the game
I always found the 2033 nosalises weird. I mean the pig like snout just made them look hilarious. However, the overall darker mood of 2033 made their presence a bit more menacing. Imo.
Plus those claws and teeth! But get a good look at a mole/shrew nose, they seem quite similar
when those fuckers would walk on their hind legs in the original...fuuuuck no
4:08 holy shit Roanoke you whipped that knife out before he even came into view. Skills
6:13 how exactly is that variant more resilient than the original? Is the skin reinforced with extra keratin, or laced with ingrown hair?
CRAP that actually would have been really cool the theorize on, I didnt find any info on why it was, perhaps larger muscles, unfortunately if I go through and try to theorize on everything, the videos would be three years long haha
@@RoanokeGaming could you bring this up in a future video, please?
THANK YOU! I suggested this video on your last morphology video for metro! I very much enjoy your videos I've been around since your gears videos. Keep up the good work. (Side note. Plated nosalasis was in 2033 for about 3 minutes, it was when artyom and CO go to d6 and he gets trapped under the door, it was then replaced by the spiderbug in the redux)
For sure man! Glad you liked the video! and you have been here a while haha I saw they were replaced, I wonder why they would do that
@@RoanokeGaming I guess because spooki spiders made it more accurate considering they like dark places, but so do moles...
Enemy lore for fictional creatures fuel me
SAAAAME
Roanoke Gaming okay this is epic
After binge watching all those videos, I'll be an expert in post-apocalyptic Moscow fauna.
When i played metro 2033 i was just running in that area without getting the gun because i didnt find it
lmao F
@@RoanokeGaming i survived
I always found it odd how in 20! Years, the creatures of Moscow and the metro changed so much.
seems like short generation span is the culprit
I mean, maybe, but still takes time to mature and change, which is why the librarians couldn't have evolved unless it was a shared genetic mutation override.
yes... i've beaten exodus... also why respond to a 2 year old comment lol?
These lore videos almost always make me play the games they're about again. The information is quite accurate and helps me not get eaten.
glad it helps bro! replay those games! theyre awesome!
Europeans "moss-cow"
Americans "maw-scao*
Europeans trying to understand an accent challenge (impossible):
no, didn't the armor plated nosalis drop from the ceiling on the D6 level in 2033 right after you got separated from everyone else? and didn't one spawn in a cave a little later on?
he did in the original but in the redux, sadly no :/
Roanoke Gaming huh. wonder why they took that out. great vid btw
Nosey boi
please keep up these videos
I for sure will broseph!
Armored Nosalis is also in Metro 2033 standard, old edition. A boss battle.
unfortunately they arnt in the redux :/
Yeah I know. 4A changed that part, just saying ;p
In metro 2033 finding d6 in one part you find amored omes
No joke, I was literally thinking about these things today and here's the video. Thanks! Maybe it was just bad footage but these things looked soft and fuzzy in some gameplay. The whole day I thought Redux ruined them but it's actually a step up (I still like the grey monkey-dog-rats in the original though).
