    I can’t help but wonder if Trepan’s incomplete attempted alterations to Megatron’s psyche created the lapses in logic that lead him to dismiss his more moral ideals in favor of the “peace through tyranny” mindset

    • @albertrex6851
      @albertrex6851 3 года назад +70

      There is multiple factors for Megatron's tipping point . 1. Unjust Arrest and victim of police brutality .
      2. Getting Mind R*ped by Trepan and absence of Terminus who comforts him .
      3. Arrested unjustly and knocked unconscious by a Senate Guard .
      4. His friend Impactor being arrested and prolonged exposure to violence and bloodshed in the gladiatorial pit .
      My theory is that the Mnemosurgery as shown in the video made him emotionally unstable and also the trauma inflicted by Trepan never got healed even after four million years the thought of needles poking into his brain terrifies him . I also think that due to being born as constructed cold it may result in lack of empathy as the constructed cold Cybertronians do some spot some psychological troubles such as lack of empathy and deep rooted anti social behaviour .

      @@drbeard4505 No he didn't. That was a different doctor named Rossum. When the Phase Six project started, Trepan was already dead. Trepan was working as a mnemosurgeon under Zeta Prime and his job was brainwashing Autobots that doubted Zeta Prime and Decepticons. Trepan was gonna brainwash Soundwave then Overlord and Starscream came to rescue Soundwave. Overlord kidnapped Trepan to learn mnemosurgeon skill from him in order to defeat Megatron. Megatron found out and killed Trepan.

    The idea of having your mind altered while conscious like that. Having what makes you, you, forcefully taken away is horrifying. I understand why megatron did what he did now. Imagine the fear, anger, hate that comes from an expirience like that? Of course, free will and your own desires would be something you cherish so dearly, the though of ever submitting again would be totally traumatic. Cant really blame him for being power mad anymore honestly.
