      If Aria was let into the N7 program (not human), abandoned her life on Omega (literal queen of the mob), and somehow managed to fit her head into this helmet (ouch), then the next game will officially be confirmed as taking place in an AU. And I wouldn't want to play it lmaooo
      Legit though, the N7 does have sass. I'm pretty sure Aria has nodded exactly like this at some point.

      Established characters becoming the main is highly unlikely, especially if a game focused on a paragon/renegade moral choice format. You can't have Aria all of sudden being Paragon or Liara becoming a Renegade, it would ruin their character image that took three whole games to build.
      If it's their offspring it would be more believable.

    If it is a type of synthetic infiltrator unit, I would imagine the Systems Alliance took that Tech from the Cerberus Base During or after Priority: Cerberus HQ. I can't see Admiral Hacket not sending an infiltration team on board after Shepard to gather as much intel as possible or even after the battle because we don't actually see the Cerberus base get blown up.
    I just had a terrifying thought. Wouldn't it have been scary if that was a new type of Reaper unit. Reaper version of a T-1000 Termintor unit.

  • @mamboonthetube7652
    @mamboonthetube7652 5 месяцев назад +2

    So I’ve been spending too much time looking at this N7 image and if you look real close at the wedges in the helmet you can see side panels within there that increase the breathable area for a supposed head, and with the curvature of the helmet the really pinched in part of the wedge as you’ve drawn it should in theory be in front of the face.
    Keeping the dimensions as generous as possible I actually can line up a human to fit inside of it but it’s still a pretty tight squeeze. The only model I was able to fit in a way that looked right was a bald femshep from the me1 character creator and it looked *alright* but the main issue was the eyes not lining up with the part of the helmet I interpret as the eye holes.
    I’m still quite partial to this character being some kind of AI platform but I’ve been forced to admit the helmet wedges aren’t quite the smoking gun I had thought.
    Either way, fun stream! Glad to have a space to get wild with overanalysis of this thing we all enjoy!

    • @paragonseven
      @paragonseven  5 месяцев назад +1

      If the wedges don't limit the head size, obviously humans are back in the discussion for who this could be. But I agree, the eye slits have never matched up for human proportions, or at least Shepard's and Conrad's don't from what I've seen.
      Absolutely, stream was so much fun! More over-analysis incoming this month too! :)

    My first instinct was AI just because it was so slender. Maybe it is the lovechild of Jack and Edi. Even if is human I don’t think it has enough bulk for either the male or female Shepard. It didn’t have a military bearing to me. It could just be some much sleeker armour tech they are trying though.

      The quarians have only 3 fingers and (unless the anatomy of them as changed), they usually have a bend in their legs similar to the angara. This N7 has 5 fingers and no bendy legs.
      And, unless I'm just seeing the gaps in the helmet reallly wrong, I can't see this N7 as being human, even if the helmet conforms to the head once put on. The helmet is the one thing driving me insane rn. It just doesn't make sense...

    Shepard gets lost in another galaxy and get saved by the geth. Or another species that the geth discovered. From there he lives years in a unfamiliar world and has the chance to send a distress signal due to discovering more information about what happened after his main decision with the crucible. Liars receives the lost transmission,signal,sign because only she understands Shepard and goes to search for the discovery or find out what the clue may mean due to how vague it is.

    Has Gamble said if anybody has found all the clues from n7 day? I think I see Shepard in the 4k wallpaper they dropped last. If you look right underneath the guy walking towards the table Liara is at (the light blue color by his feet specifically), you can see a reflection of somebody (looks like the back of fem-shep's head) staring into the distance. Rotate the wallpaper (upside down) and give it a look. That reflection shouldn't be there as it's the back of a head, and it looks like somebody is leaning up against her.

      I believe (could be completely wrong though), that VI's are limited to only holographic bodies (Avina, Mira on Peak 15 in ME1, Glyph in ME2, Shepard VI in ME3). So unless something has changed in the way VI's are presented, I'd say this isn't a VI.
      And because of the evil clone Shepard in the Citadel DLC, I'd say this isn't evil Shepard because it wouldn't be a "new" enough antagonist for a very anticipated game.

  • @agama5538
    @agama5538 5 месяцев назад

    I won't say it IS Shepard. I believe they may work in line to each of the 3 main endings for ME3 which would make Shepard a reaper, a memorial or a retired veteran. In the case of the last one we may see Shepard as an older guy either being an NPC or a squadmate (Like Marcus in Gears 5 except they don't retcon the character or the story and make us hate anything in the series moving forward)
    This N7 for me feels like they're focusing on an assassin class like Phantom, hence the slender frame uniform, and it's a new character. My personal thought is that it's someone trained by Shepard personally which would possibly make him the new Hackett or even the new Anderson for the game.
    Another theory is that it could be his kid (biologically or otherwise) which would possibly bring in a chance to play a different race and could further the unity of the galaxy by having interspecies combatives training and soldiers in the military from multiple backgrounds.
    (I refer to Shep as male because that's all I play as)
    The helmet thing though actually would fit on a human head. Picture Snake Eyes in G.I. Joe, this helmet is similar, almost skintight.
    Looking at the drawing you did on the helm, there is still curve within the gaps and the lower parts look more like they cover the ears.

    • @paragonseven
      @paragonseven  5 месяцев назад

      Regarding the helmet, when you move the ears below the gaps, the eye slits on the helmet don't match where a human's eyes would naturally be. It just doesn't make sense, no matter where I move both a masculine and feminine head. 😖

  • @galixeesgrotto5805
    @galixeesgrotto5805 5 месяцев назад +1

    Fairly certain this N7 in the teaser here is female. So unless this is Femshep exclusively and Bioware removes MaleShep as cannon and taking a stance for their story... Or obviously they just use FemShep as the model and you can choose later... Then this is more than likely not Shepard. Going by the mannerisms of the walk through the corridor, the way the upper torso turns wit hthe neck craning to look backwards, it all indicates a female body or a machine body. Not to compare the two but having absolute perfect posture is very rare for humans but found much more commonly in women.
    Other than the mannerisms, the overall shape of the N7 suit is too curvy for it to be male anything. Shoulders are too narrow as well.
    Besides the "Neck turn" is too smooth and in comparison to the Neck turn with Anderson. The teaser Neck turn is far more pronounced. Turns significantly farther, most of the turn being in the waist and not the neck.
    My best guess. If this "had" to be Shepard. The body would have been re-built. Again. But this time in a more advanced and technologically sleeker form. A semi-geth Shep. Considering Geth are friends now, and all the "Old Machines" information they have as well... Don't see why it couldn't be.
