it could be that the "person" is left alive and screaming to attract other people, other hear the poor bastard in pain stuck to a wall and rush to help him only to get their faces removed. Kinda like a sniper wounding a soldier and shooting anyone who comes to help him
Nerevar22g or just psychological warfare. To hear the screams of a person you may have know distorted and changed will cause you to panic more then you already were or pause in a brief moment of pity long enough to get you killed.
jamie fernekees indeed, rather when I said "or" was incorrect as all 3 suggestions were of psychological warfare. The wounded, the pained, the familiar all lead to death if caught off guard. Matters little how, since the outcome is always the same. You are indeed right.
Nerevar22g Could also be a for of detection. By keeping the host alive in the symbiotic form it my be able to share the neurological feeling when the host sees a human. The screams could attract both humans and more mobile nekromorphs.
Now I wonder if the Guardians are truly alive or are they essentially baiting people by faking the sounds of a human in pain. Necromorphs are smarter then they look after all
Its alive, when you kill an guardian you can hear the human almost sigh in relief. Its honestly one of the most horrifying necros in the entire franchise.
Roanoke Gaming how horrifying would it be if they TALKED to you..... Begging you to HELP them. To SAVE them..... Telling you how SCARED and LONELY they are.... "Oh god! Please! You have to help me!" "It hurts so much!" "DON'T LEAVE ME!!!!!!!" "I've been so lonely.... but now you're here and you won't leave right?.... you'll save me right?.... "
Roanoke Gaming while like the crawlers that make noise, the infant seems to be fully deceased. The Guardian, on the other hand, is keeping the human alive I believe. While mimicking the wailing and screaming of a human in pain would be easy enough, maybe the 'keep the human' alive route adds a touch of reality breaking horror. What would drain a humans mentality faster? An already deceased human body turned into a mounted killing flesh recorder, or a heavily rearranged living human being that possibly feels the entirety of the body shooting out necromorph baby sentry's with a touch of head decapitating tentacle intestines?
Jenkins was still in some form of control of his body due to the flood form having been weakend of centuries of containment. Thing is while in large amounts of pain due to the transformation, he still had the will and power to take back control of his body and in the end stop an early flood invasion of Earth.
The worst is when the wg kills the hero : after that, he shoots even louder cause he knows his only chance to get free from this horrible pain and suffering has been destroyed... and he'll probably stay here, alone in the dark, for more decades/ centuries/ thousands/ billions of years/ forever, suffering again and again, hopeless to be saved by someone, and always consious. Maybe he'd be still here when all humanity diseappered, giving him no chance to get the peace of death one day ! This abomination keeping his brain safe and always healing, this thing probably impose him to remind some of his memories, when this guy had a family/ friends/ good moods, and taking consious that he'll never live something positive one more time in his life, or feel free without any kind of suffering. That's so f###ed up !

Probably a dual purpose effect, Either to remain dormant enough to draw prey near or deter groups that could potentially be dangerous with those screams. It could also serve as a means of drawing those mentally affected by the effects of the Obelisk to crowed around it and provide an easy means of adding more Biomass to the Corruption. I could imagine the Tentacles draw in dead bodies close enough and don't want to imagine what kind of Masticators are hidden inside that thing with the barbed poop organs
Kinda like a Flytrap to Flies, The scream of the Guardian, sounding almost like a person in Immense pain, Could be a great Lure, I can only imagine how much more terrifying these would be if their barbed tentacle didn't decapitate you, but instead, it were to pull you in and doing I can't even explain to the survivor, Like if it shot out and impaled the Survivor and pulled them in or worse. I will not lie, First time I fought one of these, I got Cocky, and Stasis'd him, well, I went to go melee it and before i can react another tentacle shot out and ^SLICE* Off went my head

Here’s another way. Get a really big crane to weld steel in front of the wall guardian, making sure it can’t release the tentacles or pods, then look him straight in the eye. Tested it, worked. Well, at least for me it did. The guy after me ended up getting decapitated by nothing,
Lol. I still remember my friend Gill, or Gal as I prefer, playin' through this, facin' this freak and tried walking backwards away from it. Before he knew it, a little thing pops out and shoots at him with one tentacle, sayin' to us both, "Deadly baby weapon? Nasty. Guess I found another reason to not reproduce."
Wherever there's a guardian there tends to be explosive canisters nearby. Fastest way to kill is to wait for the anchor tentacles to come out and throw the canister at it, blowing up all of the tentacles at once
The Wall Guardian is like a Headcrab Zombie from Half Life. The Headcrab takes over the host but leaves them alive, the person being controlled can feel endless pain caused by their captor's mutilating them. The zombies screaming can even be reversed to reveal them screaming for help. The best choice would be to put these poor, mutilated people out of their misery.
Markers: go out and make corpses Guardians: I defy you *reverse psychology* Markers: go out infect corpses! Infector: you don’t own me! *attacks issac* Marker: leapers chase down the fleeing humans! Leaper: *encounters stairs* Marker: this is not going to plan Brethren moon: I got this fam Marker: thank you god *brethren moon slams face into the surface of the planet* Brethren moon: help, help I can’t get up the corruption likely keeps the host alive to attract people due to the corruption taking a long while to incorporate the biomass into a useable state to attract other people to it and likely incorporate them into the Guadiana So what it’s shooting out is both the corruption itself and the people who arrived to help the screams of their fellow human that they may or may not have had a relationship with Speaking of tuck and roll, the guardian does that with the tentacles to keep them inside itself, they come out in a spiral fashion I think
Wait, the leapers can’t get up stairs? I thought it was the brutes that couldn’t get up or down stairs, and that makes sense since their size would kill them if they attempted going up or down stairs, but those guys?
"now it is a large creature weighing several hundred pounds, and since that's a generalized term, weighing several hundred kilograms. That's right. I'm going international." without a doubt my favorite channel.
potato ze spud For real I was playing DS2 the other week and I got killed by one and sitting there like wtf hit me!?!? Because I couldn't hear it over the Stalkers and gunfire. So I literally backed into one and suddenly I had no head lol
Honestly of all the Necromorphs the Wall Guardians are probably the most tragic of them all. At least with the rest of them they are dead and converted these poor bastards.. they don't get to die.
Roanoke Gaming same with committing suicide before or during the outbreak while the markers are causing insanity. Anything compared to becoming a wall guardian is a mercy at that point.
Jesus your channel has grown a lot since I first watched your lore analysis on The Pack, this is exactly what kind of content that RUclips needs so far! Can't wait for more videos like this especially keep it up with the content there, you deserve to grow this big!
glad you stuck around bro! and its been crazy how fast this channel has shot up but I am just glad my content appears to hit the mark for alot of peeps!
I love your vids Roanoke. I found this channel in my recommended and immediately fell in love with it. I love how you go super in depth with your analysis of the organisms you do videos on, and have introduced me to series that I otherwise wouldn’t have been interested in, such as Metro, Gears of War, and to a degree Dead Space. Keep doing what you’re doing man!
Wall Guardian is kept alive so the scream can remain human in nature, drawing in potential victims who think they'll be able to help, or at least put it out of it's misery. This also implies the victim is still able to feel pain
The new background music is a very nice touch, adds kind of a creepy factor to the video, reminds me of some SCP readers. Anyways, good video as always :)
Whys that? Apart from their many times of making pay to win games and using loot boxes, what has made you experience hatred towards EA after seeing a dead space video.
I feel that the tentacles arnt anchoring it to the wall but function as arms. Like how a pregnant woman will grab something and grip on because of the pain. The wall guardian almost looks like it's bracing itself for the pain of child birth, but it's birthing those things. What I really think the wall guardians function as is biomass farms. They keep the person alive so they can use the living tissue to grow more flesh, and that's why all the corruption is on the wall, because it just keeps growing like moss. The markers can't create biomass, they can only repurpose it, so they just trap a live human, take away what they don't need, and pump them full of hormones to grow more biomass. That's also why they are so deadly, because they are very high value and can easily die unlike necromorphs. If a necromorph dies the marker can just reassemble them. But if a live wall guardian dies it's becomes dead flesh and thus completely negates their purpose. I also belive that the reason you only see a head on the final stage of the wall guardian is that the rest of the guardian is accualy armor to protect the live human inside. I also belive they don't protect important areas they are the important area, and is why you can't get close.
Without watching the video (but after reading the description) I'm gonna say that the most unsettling aspect of wall guardians, for me, is that they scream like a freakin' human!
Roanoke Gaming but very informative, also the Markers are definitely sadistic, no reason to keep the necromorph alive! At this point can you even call them NECROmorphs?
Great video. One detail you left out is the different type of scream it lets out when its killed. When you listen closely, you can hear the person inside give a sigh of relief when they die. Adding further evidence that person is in fact aware of whats going on.
@@RoanokeGaming littel dwon is how I'm going to type little down from now on when I comment on this channel I don't mean to be rude but I thought I should tell you
I have a theory about why the wall guardians seem to keep the affected people essentially still sentient in a way and capable of feeling/thinking. Markers are shown to have forms to psychology manipulate people such as the exploding babies So my thought is that it'd be used to lure in survivors You see your buddys face on the wall, fusing with the wall. This would make you want to at least go check it out, especially with them screaming in pain. You'd want to help your friend out somehow so you get closer
@@Numbers225 Kinda? Some of the Pregnants were male and later became "pregnant", but to answer your other question. No, they don't fuck and create babies, 'cept from corpses.
This is your most insightful video yet. I literally had no idea what the corruption was. I just assumed that it was the developers trying to copy the aesthetic of Aliens (which they probably were) but now I can respect it knowing there’s context for it in the game. Thanks for the explanation :)
What makes the corruption horrible? It's made of reanimated skin cells (this information is in one of the logs you find). Think about this: Approximately 90% of the dust in your house consists of dead skin cells...
Your videos have improved so much, especially with the more subtle use of background music. As a biologist i love your morphology videos, especially for such a creepy ass game. Keep up the good work!
Excellent! I have been trying to hone the music a bit more since ive been roasted alive for it in earlier videos haha but I am glad you like the videos bro!
A friend of mine had a debate about this creature and I like your take on it. Speculation on my part on how they become is that they were some of the few that tried to brute force their way through the corruption and couldn't get out of it. Given how the corruption is Necromorph Biomass, I'd assume it would have some kind of absorptive nature to it. The 'Final Form' guardians would just be survivors that tried it first. My thoughts on why the 'survivor', if you could call them that, would be alive as opposed to just another body to use is that it could be using the already active neuroelectrical activity in the body rather than having to revive it. As the body would already be melded with the corruption, it would modify and sustain the body as it needed while it made use of the material at hand. My friend always said that he could hear the guardians saying 'Thank you' as they died, but can't hear it. If that is true, then the person is just a fleshy puppet while the biomass uses the body it has in all of it's horrible ways.
I just randomly got recommended this channel a few videos back, I'm not too big of a dead space fan because it scared me too much to actually finish, but I would be a liar if I said I didn't enjoy this channel. You got a new fan against all the odds, I might just like lore a little too much for my own good.
I never even knew for months that it could cut your head off, till one day I got to close and it was like "OH WHAT HAPPENED...oh it stabbed me...wait...WHERE IS MY HEAD?"
Interesting. I can't help but wonder how this kind of Necromorph can fit into the whole convergence event. But i get that DS1 was written before the concept of Convergence was created.
I thought the Convergence event takes place on the homeworld of whatever species that's being assimilated by the Markers. At least, that appeared to be the case with the species on Tau Volantis, who incidentally only had one kind of Necromorph variant (that were just plain zombie versions of the species). But it was shown throughout a series that Necromorph outbreaks happen anywhere there's a Marker, including spaceships and colonies. It seems like they never explained what would happen to those Necromorphs or how they could all be gathered together.
Supertron5000 the markers send out a signal remember, so where ever an outbreak would occur the brethren moons would just travel there and consume it then.
whats truly terrifying about this is in order to feel pain its not the brain that needs to be active, its the whole nervous system. This "person" is legitimately conscious
Coming back these amazing Dead Space videos after the remake came out. I hope he gets inspired to do more after the remake, but I guess he has pretty much covered everything at this point.
I'm surprised just how fast you're growing. Last time I looked at your channel you had 33k, now you've got 45k. Damn dude, tell me your secret. Anyway Wonderful video. I've played Deadspace 2(Not one or three, don't own three and i'm so much of a pussy I can't stomach one) and I've had the literalist worst luck with these. But my general strategy is simply to sit off and wait for the tentacles before I fire a grenade from the pulse rifle or shoot the fuel canister from the flamethrower. It seems to work pretty well for the task.
I am not certain how I am doing it! Just very lucky! I also got selected and featured on trending earlier this week by youtube promoting me through "creator on the rise" type of deal, basically, 1 in a million shot it seems but I am very grateful!
dude i'm fascinated with necromorphs and how they work! i spent an entire night just reading the dead space wiki about necromorphs... resuming: your channel is awesome❤ keep doing those videos because i love them!!
100%, I believe when you kill a divider you get an achievement called the thing, or it something related to it, its been a while since Ive gotten it haha
Isaac is the best character ever he can think so fast. Fix damn near anything. And has no fear against one of the most nasty and scariest monsters ever in games.
I just figured that the corruption had reconfigured the reproductive organs of the unfortunate Wall Guardian to spit out spine babbies at an alarming rate, thus not only is the Wall Guardian experiencing the perpetual agony of being fused to the wall via corruption and having 90% of their body dissolved and repurposed, but also experiences explosive child birth about 10 times per minute.
To Roanoke Gaming Being a Wall Guardian is in fact just like the Story of Jenkins. I don't know where it was stated exactly but the people who "turn" into Guardians are basically not only alive in a technical term, but they are also still somewhat theirselves. They don't have any control over their Body, yet they still feel pain, they know who they once where and they can still see their surroundings. That's why they always scream in Agony when they awaken from their dormant state.
That thing honestly scared the piss out of me when i first played Dead Space..Love you vids as always 👍 P.s Do you think you could cover those things on the ground that shoot up those explody things. lmao sorry for my shitty explanation
You honestly deserve more subs than you have. The way you easily take apart and disperse lore like you do is excellent, and I look forward to sifting through your old videos and watching your new ones.
8:22 Hey it's probably sulfur and some other stuff mixed in technically we can be composted into sulfur and I imagine the markerr know how to turn us into one of the beginning stages of gunpowder and find some other stuff laying around just mix it up together Edit reason do not use your phone for youtube comments if you want to look professional
Sorry here you go now damn phone but found where I read i looked up the science and it seem right but what do I know I'm just college student studying computer science Soo make of that what you will thatm.mangahere.cc/manga/drifters/c015/
And to burry you with more information your going to have to look up anyway and is probably only wasting your and my time the reason we smell when we....... Fart 'please no one ban me' the reason it smell it because of of our large intestine is full of bacteria that releases sulfer components so yeah plausible but time consuming but then again this is a game where a sound wave can transform us into mutant monster that grow spikes out there back Soo the marker can probably move the process time up a bit but again this is all from a college student that not even majoring in biology Soo make of this as you will
And one more time just for kicks and to give some other people sometimes to read if they want here what in the human body not even a percent of sulfur but that can explain why there's not like 50 of those bomber laying around and I think that it hope this helps and i wasn't to much of a bother if you read these as well and for any one else who reads this well at least you learned something new today:) www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_the_human_body&ved=2ahUKEwit6fD6z-XcAhUJllQKHftFBnEQFjACegQICxAO&usg=AOvVaw3EbuZBiHZHaidi6frD5cY4
reminds me of the wall in attack on titan except its the other way around with titans inside the wall instead of a giant horrifying mutation on the outside of it.
Fun fact: In Dead Space 1, the first stage of the Guardians can be removed from the wall. First you have to kill it and then grab one of its hanging organs with kinesis and keep throwing it which will make it dissappear.
I was honestly terrified of the regenerators when plaing the first DS as a kid, like as if the normal ones were not terrifying enough, these ones cant die! But yeah the wall ones are pretty fucked up too
I think the guardian turns into a brute because the middle body erea of them both look simular and the brutes come out of a pod on the wal ,wich is were the guardian's are and the brutes on chapter 7 in dead space 1 thay shoot out the baby things (don't know what thay are called😧) that shoot at isaac on the lift (look closely on the wall and tell me that they're not simular).
Perhaps the Guardians second purpose is to serve as a heart of sorts for the corruption if it's made of people wouldn't it need organs to pump blood through it?
I miss that one Necromorph in the concept art for Deadspace 1. It was a pretty normal looking corpse. The head and neck of this corpse would extend outward and begin attacking anyone that came close. Had me checking every single body I came across. Found out later that it was a scrapped necro idea.
This necromorph reminds me heavily of SCP-610 “the flesh that hates” which is a flesh virus type deal that mutates people’s bodies to fit it’s area and spread itself if you ever have the time I suggest giving it a read or even a listen

Smart friend.
The more you know!
Mmm very nonsensical thing to say.
Babues dont shoot you.
_"Unlike their final form"_
**Intense constipated screaming**
What’s creepy is when you kill the guardian, it lets it a sigh of relief further supporting that the host is still somewhat alive.
Wherever there's a guardian there tends to be explosive canisters nearby. Fastest way to kill is to wait for the anchor tentacles to come out and throw the canister at it, blowing up all of the tentacles at once
In DS2 I just hit them with the pulse rifle's alt fire.
@@inactivemirgannerdz best way to deal with them imo
*screams in pulse rifle*
The mines from the line rack take them out pretty quickly too.
4:45 I didn't know you can explode them with kinesis. I thought you can only dismember their arms and head.
Wall guardian: OMAE WA MOU SHINDEIRU
Isaac: NANI?!
9:17
The Wall Guardian is like a Headcrab Zombie from Half Life. The Headcrab takes over the host but leaves them alive, the person being controlled can feel endless pain caused by their captor's mutilating them. The zombies screaming can even be reversed to reveal them screaming for help. The best choice would be to put these poor, mutilated people out of their misery.
Exactly, if anything it would be mercy!
@@RoanokeGaming
Agreed, the greatest mercy is the end of a crowbar.
The headcrab probably needs the brain intact to move the human. The corruption is just a dick
@@jackdaniels5071 Yeah the headcrab is also a parasitic animal at least it doesnt do it for malice like the marker who is highly intelligent.. :c
Markers: go out and make corpses
Guardians: I defy you *reverse psychology*
Markers: go out infect corpses!
Infector: you don’t own me! *attacks issac*
Marker: leapers chase down the fleeing humans!
Leaper: *encounters stairs*
Marker: this is not going to plan
Brethren moon: I got this fam
Marker: thank you god
*brethren moon slams face into the surface of the planet*
Brethren moon: help, help I can’t get up
the corruption likely keeps the host alive to attract people due to the corruption taking a long while to incorporate the biomass into a useable state to attract other people to it and likely incorporate them into the Guadiana
So what it’s shooting out is both the corruption itself and the people who arrived to help the screams of their fellow human that they may or may not have had a relationship with
Speaking of tuck and roll, the guardian does that with the tentacles to keep them inside itself, they come out in a spiral fashion I think
a pretty fair summation!
That moon should've had LifeAlert tbh
Wait, the leapers can’t get up stairs? I thought it was the brutes that couldn’t get up or down stairs, and that makes sense since their size would kill them if they attempted going up or down stairs, but those guys?
"now it is a large creature weighing several hundred pounds, and since that's a generalized term, weighing several hundred kilograms. That's right. I'm going international." without a doubt my favorite channel.
ayyyeee I am glad you enjoy my humor bro!
Everything involving a necro morph reminds me of that woman who said "DISGUSTANG". Especially these.
I have to agree I think of the same thing lol
Not going to lie I laughed when I got killed by this enemy only reason was because it was sudden and very unexpected
Haha yeah! Same happened to me as i tried to torch it with the flamer xD
potato ze spud For real I was playing DS2 the other week and I got killed by one and sitting there like wtf hit me!?!? Because I couldn't hear it over the Stalkers and gunfire. So I literally backed into one and suddenly I had no head lol
George Thomas I think they were plotting it all!
Right!? It's so anti-climatic! 😂😂
Never got killed by these
The wall monster hurt me emotionally more than anything else in this series honestly
God I hate those
agreed, I would not like to be that guy
"Keeps the person alive."
Jesus Christ dude put them out of their misery!
You might as well put them out of their misery in the proto wall guardian form before they turn into real wall guardian
Hel-p
I've always hated the wall guardians they're so damn creepy
I really enjoy your Dead Space analogy videos Roanoke Gaming. That's all I wanted to say.
Mmmm biomass
tasty tasty biomass
I feel bad for them :(
as do I
Hel-p
It's my fau-lt i shoul-dn't ha-ve touche-d the wall
Honestly of all the Necromorphs the Wall Guardians are probably the most tragic of them all. At least with the rest of them they are dead and converted these poor bastards.. they don't get to die.
seems like being killed by a necromorph is a mercy kill
what about the feeders from dead space 3
Roanoke Gaming same with committing suicide before or during the outbreak while the markers are causing insanity. Anything compared to becoming a wall guardian is a mercy at that point.
Jesus your channel has grown a lot since I first watched your lore analysis on The Pack, this is exactly what kind of content that RUclips needs so far! Can't wait for more videos like this especially keep it up with the content there, you deserve to grow this big!
glad you stuck around bro! and its been crazy how fast this channel has shot up but I am just glad my content appears to hit the mark for alot of peeps!
I just killed the monster just to make him not suffer anymore
Onyx468 same
If anything its a mercy kill!
Now knowing that what is left of the person is still conscious and feeling every bit of pain makes this monster much more horrifying
I think I would rather be killed tbh
@@RoanokeGaming for real. If I became one of those things, I'd want to be old yeller'd too
He forgot to mention that at the end of the Guardian's death animation, when it's done screaming, there is a clear sigh of relief.
I could have sworn I mentioned that but if not, correct!
God I would not be able to imagine what it would feel like to be one of those things
VERY painful
Me either, it's really disturbing
It's pai-nfu-ll
I love your vids Roanoke. I found this channel in my recommended and immediately fell in love with it. I love how you go super in depth with your analysis of the organisms you do videos on, and have introduced me to series that I otherwise wouldn’t have been interested in, such as Metro, Gears of War, and to a degree Dead Space. Keep doing what you’re doing man!
Wow dude you got 45k keep growing at this rate and you'll hit 100k in no time
45% of the way there! haha I hope within the next few months! I dont expect it but I can always hope!
Roanoke Gaming with out a doubt you'll hit 100k by December
Wall Guardian is kept alive so the scream can remain human in nature, drawing in potential victims who think they'll be able to help, or at least put it out of it's misery. This also implies the victim is still able to feel pain
The new background music is a very nice touch, adds kind of a creepy factor to the video, reminds me of some SCP readers. Anyways, good video as always :)
Thanks bro! Ive managed to dial back the music a bit and make it a little creepier to add some atmosphere! glad you liked it bro!
every time a new Dead Space vid comes out, my hatred for EA rises to a whole new level.
Whys that? Apart from their many times of making pay to win games and using loot boxes, what has made you experience hatred towards EA after seeing a dead space video.
I feel that the tentacles arnt anchoring it to the wall but function as arms. Like how a pregnant woman will grab something and grip on because of the pain. The wall guardian almost looks like it's bracing itself for the pain of child birth, but it's birthing those things. What I really think the wall guardians function as is biomass farms. They keep the person alive so they can use the living tissue to grow more flesh, and that's why all the corruption is on the wall, because it just keeps growing like moss. The markers can't create biomass, they can only repurpose it, so they just trap a live human, take away what they don't need, and pump them full of hormones to grow more biomass. That's also why they are so deadly, because they are very high value and can easily die unlike necromorphs. If a necromorph dies the marker can just reassemble them. But if a live wall guardian dies it's becomes dead flesh and thus completely negates their purpose. I also belive that the reason you only see a head on the final stage of the wall guardian is that the rest of the guardian is accualy armor to protect the live human inside. I also belive they don't protect important areas they are the important area, and is why you can't get close.
Without watching the video (but after reading the description) I'm gonna say that the most unsettling aspect of wall guardians, for me, is that they scream like a freakin' human!
then you will think the video is even more offputting! haha
Roanoke Gaming but very informative, also the Markers are definitely sadistic, no reason to keep the necromorph alive! At this point can you even call them NECROmorphs?
The screams are haunting, especially accompanied by what I think sounds like bones snapping. Horrifying
I found this channel 3-4 days ago and I am in LOVE such a good channel
Excellent! I am glad you like the content man! and thank you for sticking around the watch it!
Great Video man! by the way i think you should do videos on the lambent versions of the enemies of Gears of War, besides that Keep up the great work!
Burnt Bacon.v3 he said he would in his metro nosalis video. So that should be coming soon
I always called it the "Tormentor" as you can hear their tormented screams from a room away.
Well they definitely sound like they are in torment!
Can you talk about the infectors
Yes I can! should be the next necromorph I cover!
their pretty cute aren't they?
Biology videos on any of the strains of Chimera from the Resistance franchise.
as soon as I can get a playstation then I will definitely be covering resistance, last of us, and many more!
you are doing great my dude keep up the good work love ya !
Thanks bro! I appreciate the compliment!
Great video. One detail you left out is the different type of scream it lets out when its killed. When you listen closely, you can hear the person inside give a sigh of relief when they die.
Adding further evidence that person is in fact aware of whats going on.
which is HORRIFYING haha
Do one one the spider necromorph from dead space 3
I have that guy planned for later!
What about a Video on the mind of Isaac Clark and how the marker generally effects humans and life forms in different ways.
thats a good idea! perhaps a littel dwon the road!
@@RoanokeGaming littel dwon is how I'm going to type little down from now on when I comment on this channel
I don't mean to be rude but I thought I should tell you
I have a theory about why the wall guardians seem to keep the affected people essentially still sentient in a way and capable of feeling/thinking. Markers are shown to have forms to psychology manipulate people such as the exploding babies
So my thought is that it'd be used to lure in survivors
You see your buddys face on the wall, fusing with the wall. This would make you want to at least go check it out, especially with them screaming in pain. You'd want to help your friend out somehow so you get closer
It's good to know that there's still a good dead space yt channel.
Can you please do a vid on the pregnant necromorphs?
Great content by the way, definitely one of my favorite channels!💞
ex-fucking-scuse me
please tell me it's just necromorphs that were previously pregnant
please don't make me imagine these things fucking
@@Numbers225 Kinda? Some of the Pregnants were male and later became "pregnant", but to answer your other question. No, they don't fuck and create babies, 'cept from corpses.
Man, I love all of your Dead Space content, really hits me with that nostalgia. So glad I found this channel.
This is your most insightful video yet. I literally had no idea what the corruption was. I just assumed that it was the developers trying to copy the aesthetic of Aliens (which they probably were) but now I can respect it knowing there’s context for it in the game. Thanks for the explanation :)
absolutely bro! I am glad you enjoyed the info!
What makes the corruption horrible? It's made of reanimated skin cells (this information is in one of the logs you find). Think about this: Approximately 90% of the dust in your house consists of dead skin cells...
Your videos have improved so much, especially with the more subtle use of background music. As a biologist i love your morphology videos, especially for such a creepy ass game. Keep up the good work!
Excellent! I have been trying to hone the music a bit more since ive been roasted alive for it in earlier videos haha but I am glad you like the videos bro!
*Tuck-and-roll*
60% of the time, it works everytime
A friend of mine had a debate about this creature and I like your take on it. Speculation on my part on how they become is that they were some of the few that tried to brute force their way through the corruption and couldn't get out of it. Given how the corruption is Necromorph Biomass, I'd assume it would have some kind of absorptive nature to it. The 'Final Form' guardians would just be survivors that tried it first. My thoughts on why the 'survivor', if you could call them that, would be alive as opposed to just another body to use is that it could be using the already active neuroelectrical activity in the body rather than having to revive it. As the body would already be melded with the corruption, it would modify and sustain the body as it needed while it made use of the material at hand. My friend always said that he could hear the guardians saying 'Thank you' as they died, but can't hear it. If that is true, then the person is just a fleshy puppet while the biomass uses the body it has in all of it's horrible ways.
I hear a sigh of relief personally which is not normal in other necromorphs
*YES!!* Another suggestion accepted
I don't see enough on this creature 😆🖤🖤
Absolutely! The wall guardian is strangely missing alot from youtube, but atleast theres one more video to add to the pile now!
@@RoanokeGaming You are exactly right! Thank you for continuing your content. 😊
It makes me want to do more with my Dead Space art.
I just randomly got recommended this channel a few videos back, I'm not too big of a dead space fan because it scared me too much to actually finish, but I would be a liar if I said I didn't enjoy this channel. You got a new fan against all the odds, I might just like lore a little too much for my own good.
Those screams always creeped me out
Lol at the decapitation animation at 9:18, he's like "Where's my head?"😲
Honestly, after all that this series has thrown at me, these things are the only ones so far that have legitimately made me feel nauseous. :[
I never even knew for months that it could cut your head off, till one day I got to close and it was like "OH WHAT HAPPENED...oh it stabbed me...wait...WHERE IS MY HEAD?"
Great vid! Myself and I'm sure all the other dead space fans are so thankful that our fandom is revisited here.
Thanks man! I hope they enjoy the video as well!
Interesting. I can't help but wonder how this kind of Necromorph can fit into the whole convergence event. But i get that DS1 was written before the concept of Convergence was created.
Supertron5000 they're maybe just ripped off from the walls by Necromorphs?
Convergance rips apart planets. These necros would just get drawn into the brother moons.
I thought the Convergence event takes place on the homeworld of whatever species that's being assimilated by the Markers. At least, that appeared to be the case with the species on Tau Volantis, who incidentally only had one kind of Necromorph variant (that were just plain zombie versions of the species). But it was shown throughout a series that Necromorph outbreaks happen anywhere there's a Marker, including spaceships and colonies. It seems like they never explained what would happen to those Necromorphs or how they could all be gathered together.
Supertron5000 the markers send out a signal remember, so where ever an outbreak would occur the brethren moons would just travel there and consume it then.
whats truly terrifying about this is in order to feel pain its not the brain that needs to be active, its the whole nervous system. This "person" is legitimately conscious
Ah the wall Guardian. Many heart attacks were suffered because of it XD
Coming back these amazing Dead Space videos after the remake came out. I hope he gets inspired to do more after the remake, but I guess he has pretty much covered everything at this point.
I'm surprised just how fast you're growing. Last time I looked at your channel you had 33k, now you've got 45k.
Damn dude, tell me your secret.
Anyway
Wonderful video. I've played Deadspace 2(Not one or three, don't own three and i'm so much of a pussy I can't stomach one) and I've had the literalist worst luck with these. But my general strategy is simply to sit off and wait for the tentacles before I fire a grenade from the pulse rifle or shoot the fuel canister from the flamethrower. It seems to work pretty well for the task.
I am not certain how I am doing it! Just very lucky! I also got selected and featured on trending earlier this week by youtube promoting me through "creator on the rise" type of deal, basically, 1 in a million shot it seems but I am very grateful!
dude i'm fascinated with necromorphs and how they work! i spent an entire night just reading the dead space wiki about necromorphs... resuming: your channel is awesome❤ keep doing those videos because i love them!!
I am glad you like them bro! I am highly interested as well, I def love making these vids!
Do you think they got some of the ideas for the necromorphs from john carpenter's "the thing"
100%, I believe when you kill a divider you get an achievement called the thing, or it something related to it, its been a while since Ive gotten it haha
All I know is they took "inspiration" from car crash victims! Knowing that playing Dead space makes me more anxious!
The Waster is a good example of that. Plus the third game of is in an polar environment.
Isaac is the best character ever he can think so fast. Fix damn near anything. And has no fear against one of the most nasty and scariest monsters ever in games.
i love ur channel
Glad you like the videos bro!
I just figured that the corruption had reconfigured the reproductive organs of the unfortunate Wall Guardian to spit out spine babbies at an alarming rate, thus not only is the Wall Guardian experiencing the perpetual agony of being fused to the wall via corruption and having 90% of their body dissolved and repurposed, but also experiences explosive child birth about 10 times per minute.
This would imply that the wall guardians were originally female though, and the proto-guardians appear to be male.
Yay I was wanting to know about this one your videos make me happy
To Roanoke Gaming
Being a Wall Guardian is in fact just like the Story of Jenkins.
I don't know where it was stated exactly but the people who "turn" into Guardians are basically not only alive in a technical term, but they are also still somewhat theirselves. They don't have any control over their Body, yet they still feel pain, they know who they once where and they can still see their surroundings. That's why they always scream in Agony when they awaken from their dormant state.
Don’t forget in the first one some wall guardians wouldn’t even fully developed. Had a half body and full face with some missing skin
Love your Morphology / Dead Space videos!
I am glad you like them bro!
I use the name Matt from SBFP have them: “wall ghouls”
there seems to be quite a few names for them, Ive always called them Guardians but apparently they are also called monsters, very strange
YES I've been wondering this for a very long time and you've answered all my question as usually because your awesome and so is your content
thanks for the compliment bro! I am glad I could bring the desired info!
6:05 When you step on the metal pointed end of a tack.
6:06 “take a listen to this, it’s pretty bad”
RUclips subtitles: [Applause]
That thing honestly scared the piss out of me when i first played Dead Space..Love you vids as always 👍
P.s Do you think you could cover those things on the ground that shoot up those explody things. lmao sorry for my shitty explanation
yes! I can for sure broseph!
Roanoke Gaming SWEET!
You honestly deserve more subs than you have. The way you easily take apart and disperse lore like you do is excellent, and I look forward to sifting through your old videos and watching your new ones.
8:22 Hey it's probably sulfur and some other stuff mixed in technically we can be composted into sulfur and I imagine the markerr know how to turn us into one of the beginning stages of gunpowder and find some other stuff laying around just mix it up together
Edit reason do not use your phone for youtube comments if you want to look professional
I will check into that! because thats a good idea
Sorry here you go now damn phone but found where I read i looked up the science and it seem right but what do I know I'm just college student studying computer science Soo make of that what you will thatm.mangahere.cc/manga/drifters/c015/
Soo was a bit wrong but still same method and our bodies do have sulfur so it got most of what it needs to make it
And to burry you with more information your going to have to look up anyway and is probably only wasting your and my time the reason we smell when we....... Fart 'please no one ban me' the reason it smell it because of of our large intestine is full of bacteria that releases sulfer components so yeah plausible but time consuming but then again this is a game where a sound wave can transform us into mutant monster that grow spikes out there back Soo the marker can probably move the process time up a bit but again this is all from a college student that not even majoring in biology Soo make of this as you will
And one more time just for kicks and to give some other people sometimes to read if they want here what in the human body not even a percent of sulfur but that can explain why there's not like 50 of those bomber laying around and I think that it hope this helps and i wasn't to much of a bother if you read these as well and for any one else who reads this well at least you learned something new today:) www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_the_human_body&ved=2ahUKEwit6fD6z-XcAhUJllQKHftFBnEQFjACegQICxAO&usg=AOvVaw3EbuZBiHZHaidi6frD5cY4
I used to hate those things. The screaming… the knowing that they were still aware… it used to sicken me.
Hey clarke sup
reminds me of the wall in attack on titan except its the other way around with titans inside the wall instead of a giant horrifying mutation on the outside of it.
Fun fact: In Dead Space 1, the first stage of the Guardians can be removed from the wall. First you have to kill it and then grab one of its hanging organs with kinesis and keep throwing it which will make it dissappear.
indeed it will! I always thought maybe it was destroying it, either way, would not recommend becoming a wall guardian
6:05 me stubbing my toe on furniture
I love the Jenkins compassion. He's one of my favorite characters in the lore of Halo
until he gets totally screwed that is lol
I was honestly terrified of the regenerators when plaing the first DS as a kid, like as if the normal ones were not terrifying enough, these ones cant die!
But yeah the wall ones are pretty fucked up too
Great! These are my legit favorite necromorphs. They look like a direct homage to the cocooning process from Aliens. Truly horrifying concept.
plus their dudes giving birth it appears, ouchies
I think the guardian turns into a brute because the middle body erea of them both look simular and the brutes come out of a pod on the wal ,wich is were the guardian's are and the brutes on chapter 7 in dead space 1 thay shoot out the baby things (don't know what thay are called😧) that shoot at isaac on the lift (look closely on the wall and tell me that they're not simular).
interesting concept! I will actually look into that
when a guardian dies, you can hear it let out a sigh of relief. so the poor bastards definitely still feel pain.
Perhaps the Guardians second purpose is to serve as a heart of sorts for the corruption if it's made of people wouldn't it need organs to pump blood through it?
interesting Idea! Maybe that is a possibility!
I miss that one Necromorph in the concept art for Deadspace 1. It was a pretty normal looking corpse. The head and neck of this corpse would extend outward and begin attacking anyone that came close. Had me checking every single body I came across. Found out later that it was a scrapped necro idea.
This necromorph reminds me heavily of SCP-610 “the flesh that hates” which is a flesh virus type deal that mutates people’s bodies to fit it’s area and spread itself if you ever have the time I suggest giving it a read or even a listen
Issac straight boss when he holds his plasma cutter with one hand
yes he is! Isaac gives me hope that when I hit my mid 40s, I can still be a protagonist haha
