    EDIT: If this is your first time stumbling upon THE FINALS lore, make sure to check my previous videos so you understand fully the different connections and references I theorize about!
    Many thanks to Embark for inviting me to check Season 1 before the game released. This is all the lore I found during their preview event, but there's tons of more stuff to uncover.

    My theory is that the real world is pretty dystopian, and everyone wishes they could go back in time when things were better. Additionally, maps with dates could be hinting that their real world counterparts have some signifcanc, being either destroyed, greatly changed, or a cultural interest.

    Imagine if Odilia retired (or worse, died) and her likeliness was simply scrapped for people inside this universe to use her as a cosmetic item. It would make for an interesting exploration on the persistence of our online presence even after we're gone

      I’m onboard with this type of narrative. Such a great contrast to the overly cheerful and vibrant atmosphere of the game-show. I want to see the other [dark] side of the coin - pun intended.

    Knowing that it's the year 2100 and people spend more time in VR than in the Meatspace, plus the abudance of sponsors, it seems like the real world in The Finals is a pretty terrible dystopia. It would deffinietly make sense for this organization to hack the show and leave hidden messages for the contestants, in order to wake society up from this VR induced vegetation state.
    I really like the Battlefield 3 and 4 vibes those easter eggs have.

      I think the biggest tell is the Holtow company. Digital insurance is a remarkably dystopian concept; economically it makes very little sense for anyone to purchase insurance on a digital asset unless there are artificial barriers to restoring digital property with a simple backup or other similar methods

    • @triadwarfare
      @triadwarfare 5 месяцев назад

      What we learned in Apex Legends and CoD is anything can become pay to win. If the skin would help improve weapon visibility ever so slightly, or the character skin would help you blend in to the environment, people would be willing to pay top dollar for that advantage.

    The Las Vegas 2032 map is based on Fremont Street in Las Vegas, Nevada (pleaaaaase do the map video). Interestingly, despite being dated 10 years in the future, in a game taking place 80 years in the future, nearly all the aesthetics are reminiscent of current-day Fremont street, from the casinofronts to the games themselves, while the architecture outside the street (and in other places) is decidedly futuristic. I'm not really sure if there's something there lorewise.

    • @SPEARHEADPR
      @SPEARHEADPR  6 месяцев назад

      Yes, I’m aware! I’m actually finishing the script for the Vegas analysis. IMO there is a lore reason for that map but I will talk about it in a future video. Thanks for watching!

    • @SPEARHEADPR
      @SPEARHEADPR  6 месяцев назад

      @rpglover101 yes, it’s completely intentional. For legal reasons they can’t have moving graphics and certain elements that can incite gambling - they went as far as they could in terms of 1:1 resemblance to Vegas.

      Yes, CNS has hacked two broadcasts so far. We’ve added their info and messages to the Wiki, but we still don’t know who they are. There are some theories going around about what CNS stands for, like “Central Nervous System” - which could be a hint as confirmed by Rob (CCO of Embark).
