That marks the end of TennoLive, see you Tenno!
How can DE always manage to take this game in the absolute fucking wildest possible direction and surprise everyone! I love it! When they teased Wally getting involved, never in a million years would I predict things going this way.
I love the way the stone Man In The Wall tileset looked and the weird creepy enemies shown there, hope we can play some actual missions in there and it won’t be just for the quest.
The only thing I’m sad about is that I have to wait all the way to 2024 to see more of it.“Can I sit in your lovesack?” -The Lotus
Stream’s not even 30 seconds in and Rebb’s holding back tears. Think it’s going to be an emotional day.
I got so emotional barely 10 minutes in, I can’t even imagine what it must be like for them!
“Tenno, all your objectives are complete. Get to your Lovesac now.”
I. Am. Speechless.
What the fuck is Warframe 1999, I want to know now.
I have no idea but I think it’s safe to assume that us finding Wally in Abyss of Dagath is going to have very unforeseen consequences? And what was all that with the sleeper, with OG Loid and transferenceing into something big? I am so confused, and yet I want it all asap, really wish they went into at least a bit more detail ahhh
Like is this just another kahl’s garrison type of mission or what?
Oh this is going to be a painful wait
My bet is that the void gave Albrecht some sort of visions, which is why he “knew” about the Tenno before they existed. He started to build these bigass void statues for the tenno to transference into to fight some big bad we’ve yet to see.
Then he put Loid in stasis to be reawoken to help the tenno. And then he killed himself (or had Loid do it for him)
So many juicy implications. I felt like I was having some kind of fever vision of a Secret World/Warframe crossover the entire time.
Wally releasing the Infestation on an alternate reality maybe? God.
Also bisexual icon Albrecht maybe?
Albrecht and Loid were definitely fucking
I want to see the dialogue between Grandmother and Loid now.
A grimoire? Color me intrigued :D
We’ve always been wizards in all but name, but damn if it isnt satisfying to actually get a magic book. I’m going to paint mine white and make it shoot red bullets like its Grimoire Weiss from NieR.
If it’s a secondary weapon, you could use one of the gunstaves as well. With the skin from Harrow deluxe, it would look like a magical staff.
so do we cast spells or just clobber our enemies with the big heavy book?
Clobber as the alternate fire-mode once you’re out of
ammoMP.The clobber is likely a not-shown heavy attack.
They’ve gone mad. Rebb has lost it completely.
And I love it.
What in the name of Hideo Kojima is this lol
Technocytes son, they harden in response to physical trauma
Ohh, so when Rebb at first said that to develop warframe they had to go really back and find the fundamentals and why people love the game and what it is actually good in it… she meant Dark Sector? 😁 That also explains why Steve (jokingly) wanted to go back and develop that.
The only thing that doesn’t fit that theory is that the guy there is called Arthur and not Hayden (also no glaive) and that Dr. Entrati is an actual person there who’s not an orokin which makes it sound more like some parallel universe shit going on?? Ahhhhh
I think we might get more backstory into the Orokin Empire prior to the discovery of the Void. And they really leaned into the Dark Sector roots for how the universe was prior to the void and the Orokin.
They’re finally releasing Warframe
y2k.It’s pretty amazing how much the art has improved over the lifespan of the game, even the Ruins in the section with the Murmurs looks very detailed compared to the more recent tileset reworks like the Corpus Ships.
You mean Warframe 1999 is Warframe 2?
It should just be a mainline update:
Relive the Warframe: 1999 gameplay demo from #TennoCon 2023!
In this stunning new update coming to the game next year, a stranger known as “Arthur” — who bears a striking resemblance to Excalibur — faces a familiar enemy in a new form. Where (or possibly when) does this battle between unknown forces take place?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6NyR1Gfvr8I just wanted to make a y2k joke and Warframe 2 has been a bit of an ongoing joke as well with how long the game has been around.
Ah ok! Thanks for explaining that.
Wow. What a show. I am so excited for the experiences DE has in store for both Soulframe and Warframe. It’s crazy that we’re able to have them for free. And i think that’s very important.
I bet they haven’t mentioned railjack once so far not because they forgot it exists, but rather it’s gonna be the main thing in tennolive so they are saving it for later #copium
Need to remember to check the giant for some missing fingers. We’ve got one powering our Railjack and a second one on the Zariman, and we still don’t know where they came from.
“Found 'em” - Albrecht Entrati
But i think the fingers are already implied to be Wally’s fingers that were cut off by closing the portal at the end of Albrecht’s first venture into the void.
Yep, although I think those were the basis of the void drive technology but the one we have in our railjack is not the “original” severed digit - they somehow managed to duplicate them since they surely had more than just one or two ships in service.
and cloned.
Nevermind 😥
It be like that sometimes
Ohhh also the most important thing - this makes the protokol skins canon
Super excited to get that drifter armor, It looks gorgeous.
Coming soon: Operator Poodle Perm hairstyles!
They got the prizes right for the cosplay this year. That’s good.
This year seems really light on actual content—for example the gaps between sessions seem really long.
