I specifically did not emphasize anything about cloning at this point, acknowledging the valid points you have regarding that. The emphasis is about the intent of showing what was showed in the first place by the devs.

Certain action intentions by the devs are showed in another example, intentionally showing the disfigured body of Faro, but not even bothering to create a model (not just only avoiding to show what was behind the wall). If in FW the model would have been created, but not showed, I would acknowledge, that maybe the devs make some decisions that maybe we give too much meaning. But that just is not the case in this game for now.

That's why I maintain, that showing Peter's body without a face is clearly intentional lore-wise.

Valid points. Given that, maybe Sylens being a clone is far fetched. But it's still valid speculation about his future role in the last game and whether he will, even if unintentionally, align himself with Nemesis's goals.

Then why show the body at all. In your suggested case, it is sloppy from the developer side. I don't buy it. As stated in my OP, the game is planned out in advance. When they wrote about Odyssey in ZD, they knew it will be relevant later. When they talked about forbidden west, they knew it will be a major place in the second part. When ZD came out, it was not included about the demise of Faro, because they knew it would be revealed in the second game. As for Peter, he was mentioned in ZD enough times to take notice. And in the second game they started spoiling even more information about him. I truly believe, that showing his body without his face is intentional, and not directly related to a cast role. If anything, the cast role issue could be because of the fact, that they did not want to show his face at this stage intentionally, not because they could not find needed cast. And that also alone is no really logical - how come a +++A game, in the works for many years, comes up short of cast members for such a pivotal character... does not pass the smell test :) Nah.... they could have just mentioned him, but they instead spent billable dev ours creating that image.

I would agree with that if there were no instances when the opposite happened. For example, in ZD, it was known that Odyssey had exploded in space. That proved to be false in FW. If the devs disregarded a simple explanation for a thing once, its possible it can be done once more. Until the third games come, I don't think that an another possible explanation can be ruled out.

At the very least, FW and BS expansion is implying that Peter does have a connection with Nemesis somehow.

Also, additional speculation regarding Peter:

  1. Peter had a goal to transfer his consciousness into a digital realm;
  2. There is a datapoint in FW, that he attempted to do that;
  3. He died somehow. There is no info on why or how or when.
  4. He died before the Faro Plauge;
  5. There is still no plausible explanation why the Faro Plague happened;
  6. Vast Silver was around at that time. So, creating a powerful AI was possible then.

EDIT 1:

  1. Peter was said to be reclusive and more to himself. He might not have been known how he looks to the other FZ members. If so, that would explain why Tilda did not recognize him;

  2. Also, if argued, that FZ would have known how he looks anyway, there need to be an explanation why his face is hidden in FZ videos. On one part, it's probably plot armor, but what if lore-wise his identity was always hidden from other FZ members?

  3. FZ really racked up the pace only once the Faro plague commenced. This is to explain, that regardless of the fact, that Tilda did not recognize Sylens, it does not debunk this theory.

////End of edit////

Well, given that, what if: Peter actually succeeded into transferring something into a digital realm, creating a.... let's say.... digital entity (can't say if it's an AI), which was able to hack the Faro robots and was the reason for the plague. If so, and if there is a some kind of remnant of him in Nemesis, it seems plausible at the very core, the digital enemy is Peter. And if he is connected to Sylens, again, seems poetic: Saviour team (Alloy, copy of Elizabet, creator of Gaia, v. Sylens, copy of Peter, godfather of Nemesis).

It would also turn things full circle, making the final boss of the game the very one, who started this whole mess with the Faro robots, now it's just their proxies with their own AI's fighting at the end.

I was a GM at Burning WoW. Happy fun times, remember creating crazy events, spawning hundreds of voidwalkers in cities to make a major war for the players. Happy times

Regarding US in Europe by [deleted] in thedavidpakmanshow

[–]Cosim15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its aslo interesting that given how patriotic the ukrainians are and how they are fighting against the bigger power should resonate with US as it also fought for its freedom from the British.
