The biggest plot hole in RDR2 is Gavin is absolutely no where to be found. I looked everywhere and talked to everyone and he is not there. Seriously...has anyone seen Gavin??
Mike DeGroot at the end of the game when you are playing as John in black water you can find the same person still trying to find gavin all those years later it’s pretty crazy
1. Scott Shelby destroyed all evidence. He could be reported, but eye witness reports are always considered iffy without proof. 2. Does Leoric having a 2nd son really change the story in a bad way? Aiden obviously was an adventurous man, traveling probably, considering that the mage and rogue where his party. 3. Haythem didn't have to know. He could have just as well lied, working on having another assassin join the Templars. Manipulating a man missing a father figure can be easier that way, and he is not dumb. Someone with the skills to be an assassin being a mixed native... Not many assassins running around sagging natives ey? 4. They gave the answer themselves on this one, electro whip or not, the Mk. 2 couldn't even zap Vamp once when discovered, and that was ONE guy. Then suddenly it's supposed to fend off dozens of these droids? 5. How did a single necromorph an entire crew? Counter question, how did a single xenomorph destroy an entire crew? Admittedly, plot convenience... 6. Aerith is dead because sadly: game mechanics does not equal story progression. 7. Tuberculosis does not work that way... It infects many, but only breaks out on people that are in bad health to begin with (yes, actually look it up) Over half the list is kinda shaky... What culture dropped the ball recently,...
#7 - So what you're saying is, in order for Arthur's TB to be contagious, he would've had to have been in poor health when he first became infected? I assume this means that natural antibodies in a healthy human are able to fight off most of what makes TB so contagious, but not protect the infected person from the effects of TB?
#5 is dumb because a xenomorph has always been hatd to kill. #1 Police Officers have registered weapons that easily can be tracked #2 It really doesn't make sense and your reason is weak #3 You are expecting me to believe that the Brotherhood could not have taught new assassins in the area, especially with assassins after over 300 years in the New World...It seems like a big jump to conclusions man
@@derbydriver yhea, first of all tb is contagious but not THAT contagious (if not treated a person can infect 10 to 15 people in one year). The health status is surely a risk factor for getting it (but I don't know how was Arthur's health state since I didn't played the game). And yhea, there are different manifestation of tubercolosis and the only one that can spread with the cough is called bacillifera (in Italian, I didn't managed to find a translation) and last thing, tb can infect many different organs not only the lung. So is plausible that he didn't infected anyone, but as I said I didn't played the game so I cannot speak for sure.
Torben Franke is correct on 2, just need to add more info : the warrior from Diablo is Aiden. Prince Aidan of Khanduras, later known as the Dark Wanderer, was the eldest son of King Leoric of Khanduras. Once a warrior, he later became a vessel for the Prime Evil Diablo.
Given that they know less about three of them than people who never heard of that game before seeing their video, I'd say seven games, plus them pretending whatever they read about Bethesda on 4Chan is the same as playing their "games."
You don't even need to play a Bethesda to know there's more bugs and glitches than game and omg does anyone even need to bring up the massive black hole that is fallout 76 Bethesda is gone in the wind
@@dylanjohnstone-peden5232 Nah, Bestheda charging $100 for the Fallout pass is what's wild (and I've never even played a fallout game). It's ridiculous.
Jerzku'sGames I was infected by TB before, I discover quite early as I had chest complication while flying and went to the doctor immediately, even thought i was put in quarantined, I still manage to infect my mom and younger brother
rexile1986 which shows that your mother and younger brother had a compromised immune system at the time that you spread the tb to them. Tb can be given to anyone but to actually become ill from it, your immune system must be compromised. Tb/ tuberculosis will wait until the immune system is busy trying to combat something else and then begin to attack your body. It is an opportunistic disease
Cillian Cooney Anybody can get TB until they went through the 6 month treatment, then their immune system will be strong enough to not be infected by TB again
Haku infinite well you might be right, but thankfully the hospital send some personnel to our house after they found out i was infected to check our whole family, that’s how they knew my mom and younger brother was infected as well. Everyone is well and good now (to be honest i’m not entirely sure how i got infected in the first place)
@@rexile1986 Sorry to hear, but glad you got over TB. I have no personal experience, but my experience of TB is from studies of mass infestations and historical events involving it.
Or not... Because if you think about it, 7 of these 10 things have a surprisingly easy or deep explanation. I won't deny that some of them is fans filling the gaps for the developers, but even then it still makes sense.
Also, even if the New-U station were to be considered cannon, Hyperion owns the New-U stations. Jack being the CEO and brilliant computer tech that he was, could’ve easily just turned off Roland’s ability to respawn. Then the issue becomes, why does he even allow the heroes of BL2 respawn at all?

Whatculture - A group of people who talk about games full of 'plot holes' whilst creating many videos that are actually full of plot holes or wrong names or just wrong information!! 🤦🏻♂️
I’ve been saying this for awhile now, but what culture is one of the worst channels out there. I clicked on the video and fast forwarded to the “plot hole” in red dead, just to see what kind of malarkey they spew out.
could be worse, could be watch fucking mojo " but before we get to number one we're going to beg for likes and subscribes" the hosts utilise cringeworthy puns and pack on the cheese AT THE SAME TIME
Why does Final Fantasy 7 always end up on a list like this? It's not the only Final Fantasy to feature permanent death in a world where Phoenix Downs exist. But the biggest thing, this has been answered years and years ago. Phoenix Downs don't recover from death, just knock out. I mean I feel like that's pretty obvious. Final Fantasy games tend to have civilians and innocents die too. Why would we freak out if you can just throw a phoenix down on them? Death would be irrelevant in Final Fantasy lore if Downs actually did that.
Actually, if Phoenix Downs only recover from knockout, then aren't they pretty pointless anyway? Because if a character gets beaten unconscious, then you shouldn't need a special item to wake them up, just drop a couple of potions/hi-potions/cure spells on them and they'll be fine. But once a character hits 0 HP, they're 'dead', and normal recovery methods no longer work including (IIRC) inns. So, I think the Aerith death is a plothole - either 0 HP (which Aerith would be after the skewering) means unconscious/knockout and Phoenix Downs are pointless because you can just wake them up with normal recovery methods, or 0 HP is dead and you should be able to bring her back with a Phoenix Down or Life spell.
Did nobody watch the Dead Space animated movies? I know they weren't exactly Akira or Toy Story but they weren't that bad and the first one provided an explanation. An infector snuck onboard a transport ship that crash landed into the main ship (can't remember the name) then found its way to the morgue.
In Dead Space one of the DLCs or spin offs actually do explain how it was overrun by the necromorphs the humans start to hallucinate due to the marker and they start to see other humans as necromorphs so they will attack them thus leading the more necromorphs and so on.
Actually, if it's TB, they probably did contract it, but TB has been with humanity pretty much from our beginnings. It only becomes lethal if it manages to actually make it to your lung tissue. People who don't live very rough and tumble lives with poor diets and sleeping conditions may never have TB develop, and sometimes you just get lucky and it never develops in the lungs. And yes, while TB is highly infectious, it's not like it's common cold levels of infectious. You can still dodge it through a modicum of hygiene. There is a reason humanity managed to live so long pre-TB treatments without killing every TB carrier like it's the zombie apocalypse. Not really a plot hole. Seriously if Morgan hadn't lived the life he did, he might have lived a very long time with TB.
Arthur's symptoms, apart from broken blood vessels in his eyes and a red nose, really didn't appear until after the shipwreck, which I assume would take its toll on a person's health. So he may have survived it if he hadn't ever gotten on that boat.
Yea, If he had ran away with mary, Instead of hitting the bank. I'm sure he would have lived to see old age, but that probably Wouldn't make for a good story.
@@jclausell you would still watch to see what order its in. besides if your reading the description youve already given them the view, so what does it matter
@@Famedtitan They say they put the games in the description for spoilers and then they don't. All it made me do was not watch it. So they lose views not doing what they say they will.
"How Did a Single Necromorph Slaughter the USM Valor?" Soldiers are trained to shoot at the center of mass, not limbs. It's not a plot hole when the game's lore and gameplay itself is crafted to make this point during the *tutorial*
In RDR2 I started wearing my mask after I was diagnosed with tuberculosis because I felt like Aurther would try to avoid spreading the sickness and it helped with the immersion in addition to fixing a plot hole
Since Tuberculosis is spread by extremely close breath contact and droplets in that breath, since except in stiff open world Arthur never coughs on someone (usually holding it in when someones around him even in open world in fact) Thus not spreading it. The doctor scene is the closest to being a plot hole but because Arthur never directly coughs or even exhales on the doctor (always above him) it does not spread. Plot hole fixed because it was never really there to begin with.
A much bigger problem with Uncharted games is completing absolutely impossible climbs to access ruins that haven't been seen in thousands of years, only to immediately encounter random goons. That, or finally finding Shambala or whatever lost city and realizing that it is totally visible from basically any airplane.
rdr: i’ve had this argument so many times but tuberculosis doesn’t work like that. just google it. as for a possible reason why the others weren’t infected, it’s possible that arthur was ill from colter or, failing that, he did actually nearly die in chapter 3 which could have caused the switch from latent to active. this “plot hole” is caused from a lack of knowledge honestly
Exactly it’s easier to catch it if you spend every waking moment with someone. Like Doc Holliday who’s mother and adopted brother had it. It laid dormant in him for 6 years before he showed any symptoms.
@@TheRevyr1666 I think Arthur got TB from Hosea. He was sick from the beginning, always coughing and saying how 'its getting worse' and he 'doesn't have much time left'. I've always thought that Downes guy was a red herring just to make Arthur reflect on his actions.
Brendan Mc very well could be, but Tb is transferred through bodily fluids and Downes spit up right in Arthurs face. He probably wouldn’t have even gotten sick if it wasn’t for Guarma.
RE2: The two games in that direct sequence actually occur within two concurrent months, according to official RE lore, with Nemesis happening in late September while the military still has some manner of control over the quarantine, and RE2 largely happening the following weeks in early-to-mid October. Umbrella had, by that point, used their not-inconsiderable influence within the government to seize control of the quarantine, allowing them to introduce BOW's to the already mostly empty city as it was the perfect testing ground, but also allowing Claire and Leon to slip through since the UBCS and USS forces waging covert war on each other inside the city limits kind of made the quarantine all but useless at keeping anything out. Raccoon City became a roach motel at that point. Dead Space: It was rather easy for a single Slasher-type Necro to take down the entire Valor because the military personnel aboard had no clue how to fight it. This means they'd be using head and body shots when engaging it, which are effectively useless in canon as far as doing lasting damage as proximity to the Red Marker would mean the Slasher could jump in and out of engagements, killing more each time, and healing when it retreated into the vents. The proximity to the Marker at that late stage in the game also meant that at least one or two members of the Valor's crew were likely going through the first stages of psychic infection, and it really only takes one dead body to let the Marker signal convert the dead flesh however it chose. The second that Slasher got loose on the Valor, there was only one real outcome.
Personally (for the Dead Space one) I always thought that the one that got onto that other ship was one of those regenerating jerks(Regenerators?) and that that's how it took them all on.
That and they probably didn’t have anything to deal with a necromorph, or any knowledge on how to actually kill one...Bullets have been proven to not work, hence why the plasma gun really only works in longer bursts as opposed to the plasma cutter killing instantly
@@Krosstic Except that there is no reason to think it was anything other than a normal, one man kills hundreds of the things through the game, necromorph. Plus, the gun that shoots bullets is one of the most effective weapons in the game. It makes ZERO sense from any logical standpoint. It's simple one man army game logic. You find it in all forms of zombie/monster games. Somehow, one person... who may not have any combat training at all... can plow through hoards of the things, whatever the things are, but highly trained security and military personnel can't handle even one.
Ryan Murphy Ill give you that issac should have died but I mean no protagonist no game, but I can believe a necromorph could massacre an entire ship, not to mention the Infector forms aren’t the only thing that cause a human to become a fleshy wall of blades and death, proximity to the marker is what helps it along, so really he only had to kill at max three or four before dying himself before everything kicked off, domino effect
where do i start oh i know the fact that in the darkness 2 jackie is left in hell with his final fate entirely unknown after the angelus takes over jenny also it is never explained how johnny powell knows so much about how the darkness acts and the brotherhood also the spear of destiny shows up in the vendattas mode with no mention of the other artifacts and no expliation of how the brotherhood got the spear in the first place i know how detailed the darkness' worldbuilding is because of the comics so there is no justiable reason for these plotholes to go unexplained
I'd say RE3's mention of Raccoon City being under quarantine yet Leon and Claire managing to enter it anyway in RE2 can be explained by the fact that the US government had already decided to nuke the city so they likely told whoever was maintaining the quarantine to withdraw ahead of time. A bigger plot hole would be who boarded up all the doors and removed the puzzles in the RPD HQ for Jill, then removed the boards and put the puzzles back for Leon and Claire 24 hours later.
Heavy Rain: He was a mobster linked to a Serial Killer, why would he involve the police? Resident Evil 2: They can't cover all roads in and out of the city. Even the forest was full of zeds (look at Outbreak's "Flashback" level). Final Fantasy: Cos both Materia and Downs are game mechanics. They're there to help you play, they don't function as they do in the game's "reality". He actually had nothing to save her with, so couldn't. These are the only ones I played that I can refute. Metal Gear I agree with. The rest, meh, not my games anyway.
If you watch the Dead Space animated short, which shows what happens on the Ishimura, and read a bit about the lore, you would know that the way the Necromorphs work is not the traditional zombie way of, “Necromorph bites or kills someone, that person turns into Necromorph”, it’s actually much worse than that. The Markers, which is what the USS Ishimura discovers on the unexplored planet they were sent to mine, is a connector to an alien overmind, but also a wave beacon (or transponder). What do the waves do? Well, anyone who can be made to go insane, and can be controlled by the Marker because of their genetic predisposition to insanity or their weak minds, is. Those people work for the Marker, killing as many people as possible, and because the Markers are controlling them, they can eventually be morphed into Necromorphs. Peoples’ spines become the, I guess you would call them “infectors” for the Necromorphs after that. They are the flappy-skin-wingy type enemies you find in the game. The people that die are then sought out by the flappy-skin-wingy type necromorphs, and are then also transmutated into Necromorphs as well. More people go crazy, get killed by those crazies, and more people die from the Necromorphs (which it has been made perfectly clear from the games that they are NOT easy to kill) and more and more Necromorphs get produced. Even if someone has a strong will and sane mind, the Marker is constantly trying to break down that person’s will by showing them hallucinations, horrific scenes of loved ones dying, or just messing with their minds. That, combined with the nightmare of actually dealing with the Necromorphs and watching people around you get butchered and having them constantly chase you, eventually makes even the strongest of people lose their sanity, and give in to the Marker’s control. So if the Necromorphs don’t get you, the Markers will. That’s how a whole ship got taken over. The Dead Space universe and Necromorphs are freaking terrifying.
I recall asking about the revival of Aerith years ago and the (reasonable) answer is that "dying" in combat was actually a K.O. or knockout, whereas Aerith actually died.
Another bad list made by yours truly Scott. Let's list the problems with this one. 1)scott destroyed the evidence. 2)who said that Leon and Claire weren't in a different part of the city? Even if we disregard that the creator of the game still gave a good explanation. Zombies attacked the army which made them leave their positions and Leon and Claire were able to pass through. 3)Snake really did have to do that. Did you even play the game? 4)they were probably trying to kill the necromorph in the incorrect way. You even see a writing that said that head shots do nothing against them. Thru were also probably trying to study it and it got loose. 5)because game mechanics are different than the actual world. Why didn't he turn sephiroth to a frog in the movie? 6)because that's not how the disease works.
Robobobobobobob And now Heavy Rain is spoiled to me because I didn’t click out fast enough. I’m not mad because I clicked on it but they did say it had details in the description. There never is.
7 is actually easy to explain- Haytham is former assassin and a templar leader. So it begs to reason he can have someone keep an eye on his love/son or keep an eye out himself, because he has skills to do so. He could also figure it out from similarities or use eagle vision (as it is blood ability) to determine it. Or, you know, once new assassin popped up, he could just have used old fashion detective work to figure it out. AC lore offers so many options for that, so yeah, no wonder
"Secret Assassin's Creed 3 Fan"? Dude, it don't need to be a secret. That game had way more charm than those that came after. That said: 3 is still the bridge between what AC used to be, and what Black Flags turned it into, and a remaster won't be enough to restore any faith in it.
In my opinion, Scott being the origami killer would’ve worked better if he suffered from multiple personality disorder rather than being an unreliable narrator. One personality where he’s genuinely trying to catch the killer without realising that his other personality is the killer. It’d give him more depth as a character and when he’d eventually finds out the truth, it’d be interesting to see how he deals with it and how he wrestles with conscience.
FYI, King Leoric had 2 sons, one became the vessel for Diablos soul which Leorics second son, Aidan, killed. What would be strange is that Aidan doesn't seem to scream out in horror when he realised that he had just killed his younger brother. Aidan, had been to war, and had just returned. When Aidan takes the crimson soulstone he tries to contain Diablos soul within himself which we all know failed pretty hard so he became the dark wanderer. Love the Diablo lore books, i.e. Book of Cain, Book of Tyrael and Book of Adria. To me Diablo 3 didn't shake that much up. If you listen to conversations and talk to people in Diablo 2 you can learn much details about what happend in Diablo 1 and between the games.
6:54 Well do we really know its just 1 necromorph? Escape pods usually carry a few people in sci fi stuff, especially a ship as big as a literal planet cracker. There was most likely more than 1, and maybe even more than 1 infector. In close quarters with the Valor’s crew completely shocked, not to mention the lack of mining equipment great at cutting off limbs of the necromorphs its not too unlikely
It was shut into the pod by the Captain, and launched. There is no reason to assume there was anything on board other than a single, normal , necromorph. The pulse rifle is one of the most effective guns in the game, that's no excuse either. There is no logical reason for it, it's just another example of a games antagonist being able to mow down hundreds of enemies, while the people who should be the most effective at dealing with such treats, are totally useless. ALL zombie games suffer from this cliche. Hell, it's practically the cornerstone of all action movies and games.
Hey whatculture, I think you should check your lore/tropes. Ff7 lore states in game that the masamune (sephy's sword) prevents reviving. Conor looks kinda like hathem, and let's be honest, the templars have been shown to track the assassin order. And, Leon literally breaks nearly every natural law in that world. So, of course him and those around him can do anything including fly.
The reason that no one caught tuberculosis from Arthur is that he never coughs on anyone and some people might of caught it but people who catch tuberculosis don’t start coughing the next day it takes some time and most of the time it doesn’t get bad
The way tuberculosis works isn't the way Scott explains it. Tuberculosis works in the manner that when you get it it isn't that deadly unless you're in bad health. Arthur was pretty beaten up after what happened in Guarma and he was in a tropical weather when he needed to be in a dry weather like New Austin so his tuberculosis went from latent to active due to the weather and his health. It has nothing to do with the way he coughs or what he does in camp or with the gang.
AC III can easily be explained thanks to numerous different precursor artifacts. Most likely the case is that he approached Achilles, who told him the truth (makes most sense for a plot hole).
So the RDR2 thing isn’t as bad as you might think (spoilers); TB is a deadly disease, but can lie dormant for a very long time, as long as you remain relatively healthy. Arthur’s cough hadn’t developed until he was captured and tortured in Chapter 3, and it didn’t get really bad until he was shipwrecked and nearly died from that later on. Some folks do get a particularly nasty mutated strain, but most TB infections remain dormant and the carrier’s immune system keeps the disease in check, until compromised long enough for the virus to gain a solid foothold in the lungs. Arthur would have been at his most contagious during the final stages when he was projectile coughing blood, but he was pretty good about covering his mouth while coughing. And by then, everyone was in pretty good health, and wouldn’t have been as susceptible. At worst he may well have infected Micah as he’s the only person who I can remember getting close while Arthur coughed, near the end of Chapter 6, but we also don’t see much of Micah’s life in the epilogue to see if he would have ended up with a compromised immune system to allow the virus to activate, until the end of his life.
Arthur morgan may have infected everyone in camp for all we know, Tuberculosis can lay dormant and some people never even develop symptoms. I like to think that's what killed Abigail in red dead 1 after John is killed and it cuts to Jack, abigail inexplicably has died off screen. I like to think the trauma of losing John triggered her dormant TB and rapid decline. That's obviously retcon but they dont explain it anyways, so its as good a guess as any.
If you watched the animated movie, it explains how the Necromorphs were created, it didnt have to be from an infector, the Marker can warp the mind and long term exposure will then turn you into a Necromorph. In fact the marker can reanimate dead corpses on it's own so if one slasher kills 2 people, they can get reanimated and make more by killing.
Spoiler in rdr2 Arthur does in fact pass on the illness. On my second play through I noticed one man began to look a little I’ll pretty fast. Hosea, him being old his body would probably be hit harder and it work faster than Arthur. On my second play through I noticed hosea would be out of breath a lot at camp and go into extreme coughing fits. You should look more into that. Here is a scene showing one of hoseas coughing fits, remember Arthur got tb from downes so he had it pretty much the whole game. (watch?v=WFfAXheOJNo)
Nope, in the old games and the reboot you can see them pass a obvious "Welcome to Racoon city" sign or "Racoon city" highway sign when approaching the city.
@@olivergaither yeah I know I was asking a question to the guy who said they may have lived there and I'm saying if they lived there why didn't they evacuate or hear of the ourbreak
dead space had an animated film that was the prequel to the game. It highlighted the events and origins of the necromorphs and how the stone infected the minds of the crew... the crew began killing each other while they were alive, but when they died they became necromorphs... the crew consisted of miners, a handful of peace officers and a religious group that worshipped the stone infecting everyone's minds ... kinda shocked this made the list considering the film was released YEARS ago.
#4 Saying anyone who has played the game couldn't think of it. But its pretty easy to think of. It was a Regenerator. There has been a Regenerator in every single Deadspace game. There are clearly more than 3 (as in the third game you fight dozens) so its not unthinkable that the Necromorph they picked up was one of those Regenerators.
In FF7, death occurs in two stages. When the body ceases function you are 'dead', but then your soul has to return to the planet. At which point you're part of the Lifestream and likely can't be resurrected. It's also common speculation that Aeris allowed herself to die 'completely' to make sure Holy would activate. Granted it would have been helpful if they'd showed Cloud at least TRY some of these measures, like when Galuf dies in 5 or the twins get turned to stone in 4.
Crazy Earl from the Borderlands series lives on Pandora in the first game, moves to its moon during the presequel only to be found living on Pandora again during the second game. I doubt he had the money for the first move.
8:11 From what I know, they are not really dead. In some FF games, the are alive again with 1 HP after the fight, in some not. Depending on the circumstances, they don't really die and are only unconscious or something, and in this case, it was different. I know, it sounds like trying to explain a plot hole and maybe it is, but yeah, the first part still stands, but doesn't need to mean it was the case here (too), ofc.
It was explained in the forsaken novel that Haytham had his suspicions because a native assassin was walking around threatening Templar’s (Charles lee and the others told him this) and the moment Haytham caught a glimpse of Connors face when he was imprisoned he knew Connor was a Kenway (on top of Connor wearing the necklace of the only Native American woman Haytham has ever banged)
That RDR2 one is ridiculous. We literally had sanitariums for people with TB during that time period and up until we found a treatment for it. Some of those sanitariums were islands in order to get the infected population even more isolated. That is how seriously TB was taken. We would literally exile people to otherwise uninhabited islands that only had staff and the sanitarium buildings on them to keep TB from spreading in the general population.
These plotholes are written around selling points made to draw the player in. They don't make sense because it's supposed to add to the theatrical experience, not the story itself.

Reasons Arthur didn't spread his TB: 1. While TB is highly contagious, most people who are infected just become asymptomatic carriers. 2. Actual illness can take several months after initial infection to occur, and considering that RDR2 takes place entirely over a few months, Arthur didn't become symptomatic until close to the end, and barely any of the gang survived, it's entirely possible that no one had time to develop symptoms.
In MGS4, I felt that there are many sub-themes. One of it for Snake was that he has come to realise his fate and was to stop the pandemic from happening. And he wants to go away in a memorable way. I felt that why he went through that said tunnel to GW was to in a way, try to go off in a bang. To be that man who goes through all odds to get things done. Maybe he didn't expect to finish his task alive, as seen in the very last scene where he tries to commit suicide, but doesn't. Why he prevent his own death was because I felt that he is still finding the meaning to his..." cloned" life, other than this fruitless war. The revelation and speech by Big Boss, his Father, created closure to his wandering soul.

iirc all necromorphs are infectious over time, but even barring that the USM Valor had no info at all on how to deal with the necromorphs. Standard bullets to center mass or even the head do jack all, and that would be the go to in enemy engagements.
tbf, there's no knowing how many weapons of the dismemberment variety usm valor had, and they probably made the mistake of shooting centre mass anyway. Its very likely the group who opened the pod was so surprised they had no chance of killing it, plus they were close enough to the marker that one could of possibly become an infector when this group turned, not to mention the marker drives people crazy so many of the crew may have killed themselves and/or others.
while less emotionally impactfull the classical "Dying NPC gives you healing/revival items before death" is much worse logic wise. prime example that springs to mind would be our old friend Oscar of astora in dark souls one, who gives us the trusty estus flask due to him beeing "to wounded to continue on"...
About the Necromorph thing... did the crew know to de-limb the creature? I was under the impression that as long as they had their limbs those things were immortal. If I’m wrong then I’m wrong, but that was the impression I got...
In all fairness I think Haytham could have pieced 2 and 2 together by the fact that Connor looked like him and was around the age of any possible child of him and Connor's mother
I feel like there could have been more than one group of space pirates, ya know? Space pirates is a pretty generic term, that could apply to more than one group of people. Could have been one lot that didn't break through and one lot that did and got assimilated, or 50 lots even, it's a REALLY generic term that can describe a lot of different things, and there's no mention on the number of space pirates that I recall sooooooooooo........
Revive doesn't mean resurrect. CPR can be used to revive someone but it cannot resurrect the dead. Aerith's injuries were fatal and there is nothing that can resurrect her. If they could do that then there would be other references about bringing people back to life in the game. Why didn't the Shinra President get resurrected? Surely being the most important man in the world would have had someone from his company bring him back if resurrection was a thing, right?
I've actually been giving the Resident Evil 2 conundrum some thought, and I think I have an answer, but it's a stretch: Through Claire's knowledge of Raccoon City, having a brother that lives there and having, presumably, traveled there on numerous occasions if not having been born their, I'm positive there are old, *old,* logging trails over the mountain that anyone in the know could take, would have been removed from maps decades ago, would have cut hours off of Claire's trip from having to go around them, and would have facilitated gaps in any governmental response to quarantine the place 100%. Leon just got lost and bumbled in, in near the exact same way. Or perhaps got directions from a friendly "in-the-middle-of-nowhere," gas station attendant that just happened to notice his uniform and casually informed him of a quicker route (which would also land him in near the same place to run into Claire)
RE: RDR2 tuberculosis. TB can actually be non-symptomatic for years or sometimes decades. Arthur may very well have infected other gang members, they simply didn’t become symptomatic during the events of the game. After playing both games? I’ve suspected Abigail died of TB...she died three years after John and while Rockstar never clarified why, I have suspicions she died of TB that didn’t show up until a decade later...which happens. Actually there is a fan theory that Downes didn’t actually infect Arthur...it’s not likely that Arthur could become symptomatic that fast after exposure. If you listen to in-camp dialogue you’ll hear Hosea coughing a lot and many other characters recognizing his illness and even Dutch talking about his “whistling pipes.” Hosea may have been suffering from TB and had infected Arthur some time before the events of the game.
I don’t know if anyone else has commented on the MGS4 “plot hole” on here yet. That electrified chord is only effective against one target at a time. And everyone at the briefing knew that the AI mainframe would be heavily guarded just in case someone or something got passed the microwave corridor. So that’s not a plot hole.

Yup. forced plot element for the sake of gameplay. They hint that it's so pilots could switch out between drones all over the town and AI does the rest and that would mean they actually didn't have enough pilots for all of them but a Jason determined to bring Batman down would have kidnapped civilians and strapped them in the drones.
7:48 This one is complicated; and the only Final Fantasy that makes sense of this is Final Fantasy 5 (where the characters literally try to bring a fallen member back to life)
l kinda remember Haythan saying that he lived with some natives and having a wife,he tells Connor this didnt he?but anyways you can tell that as the player pretty much at the begining of te game,if you have at least two working brain cells that is his father. Oh and the RE2 plot,they are supposed to be cops or private agents just doing their job? At least all RE games have the same story in this aspect
For FFVII : they revealed years after the game's release that they first wanted to include a way to resurect Aeris, that's why you can see a ghost in Midgar after leaving the city. But the limitations of CDs (it was already a 4 CD game !) meant they could not implement that. The white materia was the one supposed to bring her back. They completely acknowledged that plot hole and apologised for it... What will the remasterisation do with that? *shrug*
Wait... the logs from the phazon mine say the Pirates found Prime during their later excavation of phazon and that it too was burrowing away from the meteor that struck Talon, just as the Purates were burrowing around and towards the meteor. THAT IS EXPLAINED IN GAME! 🤬
My plot hole is from Vampyr; why does the Guard of Priwen know you’re a vampire right away, without seeing you properly but the NPCs you talk to dont, even when your eyes change color depending on how many people you’ve eaten? It’s annoying.
6:53 probably because they don’t die...MandaloreGaming explains its best...”Basically, every cell in this thing wants you dead...I don’t think you’re really killing them.” Plus it’s explained that their skin is basically formed into armor and bullets don’t work, USM valor being a destroyer I highly doubt they’re have rock cutter saws or a plasma cutter on hand, so it’d probably just be able to run rampant without repercussions

The biggest plot hole in RDR2 is Gavin is absolutely no where to be found. I looked everywhere and talked to everyone and he is not there. Seriously...has anyone seen Gavin??
Secret is he's Gavin and every time you hear him "looking" you go to him.
Mike DeGroot at the end of the game when you are playing as John in black water you can find the same person still trying to find gavin all those years later it’s pretty crazy
I think that Gavin is the Saint Denis vampire
Someone found that the dude in the cave who claims to be the Devil his name is Gavin if you pick him up but if you bring them together it does nothing
There actually is a story behind Gavin
It always bothered me that Shelby kills like 20 people in the mansion with his 6 round revolver that he never reloads

1. Scott Shelby destroyed all evidence. He could be reported, but eye witness reports are always considered iffy without proof.
2. Does Leoric having a 2nd son really change the story in a bad way? Aiden obviously was an adventurous man, traveling probably, considering that the mage and rogue where his party.
3. Haythem didn't have to know. He could have just as well lied, working on having another assassin join the Templars. Manipulating a man missing a father figure can be easier that way, and he is not dumb. Someone with the skills to be an assassin being a mixed native... Not many assassins running around sagging natives ey?
4. They gave the answer themselves on this one, electro whip or not, the Mk. 2 couldn't even zap Vamp once when discovered, and that was ONE guy. Then suddenly it's supposed to fend off dozens of these droids?
5. How did a single necromorph an entire crew? Counter question, how did a single xenomorph destroy an entire crew? Admittedly, plot convenience...
6. Aerith is dead because sadly: game mechanics does not equal story progression.
7. Tuberculosis does not work that way... It infects many, but only breaks out on people that are in bad health to begin with (yes, actually look it up)
Over half the list is kinda shaky... What culture dropped the ball recently,...
#7 - So what you're saying is, in order for Arthur's TB to be contagious, he would've had to have been in poor health when he first became infected? I assume this means that natural antibodies in a healthy human are able to fight off most of what makes TB so contagious, but not protect the infected person from the effects of TB?
It's not just people in bad health it affects healthy people too ? Just not as fast of not treated it will kill anyone
#5 is dumb because a xenomorph has always been hatd to kill.
#1 Police Officers have registered weapons that easily can be tracked
#2 It really doesn't make sense and your reason is weak
#3 You are expecting me to believe that the Brotherhood could not have taught new assassins in the area, especially with assassins after over 300 years in the New World...It seems like a big jump to conclusions man
@@derbydriver yhea, first of all tb is contagious but not THAT contagious (if not treated a person can infect 10 to 15 people in one year). The health status is surely a risk factor for getting it (but I don't know how was Arthur's health state since I didn't played the game). And yhea, there are different manifestation of tubercolosis and the only one that can spread with the cough is called bacillifera (in Italian, I didn't managed to find a translation) and last thing, tb can infect many different organs not only the lung. So is plausible that he didn't infected anyone, but as I said I didn't played the game so I cannot speak for sure.
Torben Franke is correct on 2, just need to add more info : the warrior from Diablo is Aiden. Prince Aidan of Khanduras, later known as the Dark Wanderer, was the eldest son of King Leoric of Khanduras. Once a warrior, he later became a vessel for the Prime Evil Diablo.
I'm starting to feel the writers for this channel have only played 10 games.
Given that they know less about three of them than people who never heard of that game before seeing their video, I'd say seven games, plus them pretending whatever they read about Bethesda on 4Chan is the same as playing their "games."
You don't even need to play a Bethesda to know there's more bugs and glitches than game and omg does anyone even need to bring up the massive black hole that is fallout 76 Bethesda is gone in the wind
Is Jack Pooley actual a member of staff or one of the audience who submitted the list
@@akiameko1984 it's the same as kids who pretend to be smart by slagging off Bethesda.. :)
@@dylanjohnstone-peden5232 Nah, Bestheda charging $100 for the Fallout pass is what's wild (and I've never even played a fallout game). It's ridiculous.
Half of these are explained in games and Tuberculosis doesn't work like that.
Jerzku'sGames I was infected by TB before, I discover quite early as I had chest complication while flying and went to the doctor immediately, even thought i was put in quarantined, I still manage to infect my mom and younger brother
rexile1986 which shows that your mother and younger brother had a compromised immune system at the time that you spread the tb to them. Tb can be given to anyone but to actually become ill from it, your immune system must be compromised. Tb/ tuberculosis will wait until the immune system is busy trying to combat something else and then begin to attack your body. It is an opportunistic disease
Cillian Cooney Anybody can get TB until they went through the 6 month treatment, then their immune system will be strong enough to not be infected by TB again
Haku infinite well you might be right, but thankfully the hospital send some personnel to our house after they found out i was infected to check our whole family, that’s how they knew my mom and younger brother was infected as well. Everyone is well and good now (to be honest i’m not entirely sure how i got infected in the first place)
@@rexile1986 Sorry to hear, but glad you got over TB. I have no personal experience, but my experience of TB is from studies of mass infestations and historical events involving it.
Let's be honest a lot of these can be described with one of the following two arguments:
Because video games
Because reasons
Or not... Because if you think about it, 7 of these 10 things have a surprisingly easy or deep explanation. I won't deny that some of them is fans filling the gaps for the developers, but even then it still makes sense.
The RDR2 one is easy: Tuberculosis has a really long incubation time, like anywhere from 1 to 20 years
The Re 2 remake fixes it, you can clearly see that they’re at a roadblock before the truck pushes them into the city and blows up
And zombies were managing to escape even before that.
Borderlands 2: Why Roland didn't use the New U station to revive himself after Handsome Jack shot him ? He used it all the time in the first game !
The new u stations arnt canon
Also, even if the New-U station were to be considered cannon, Hyperion owns the New-U stations. Jack being the CEO and brilliant computer tech that he was, could’ve easily just turned off Roland’s ability to respawn.
Then the issue becomes, why does he even allow the heroes of BL2 respawn at all?
@ISitOn MyArm probably some type of legendary unobtainable gun that negated his shield
STOPTHE MADNESS They mention them in BL3. I’m sure they’re canon now. But also keep in mind it’s all just a story being told by Marcus to his kids.

I mean, it's a video about plot holes in the story. What did you think to see?
Whatculture - A group of people who talk about games full of 'plot holes' whilst creating many videos that are actually full of plot holes or wrong names or just wrong information!! 🤦🏻♂️
I’ve been saying this for awhile now, but what culture is one of the worst channels out there. I clicked on the video and fast forwarded to the “plot hole” in red dead, just to see what kind of malarkey they spew out.
could be worse, could be watch fucking mojo " but before we get to number one we're going to beg for likes and subscribes"
the hosts utilise cringeworthy puns and pack on the cheese AT THE SAME TIME
The real plot-hole here is the missing list of games they said would be in the description.
Why does Final Fantasy 7 always end up on a list like this? It's not the only Final Fantasy to feature permanent death in a world where Phoenix Downs exist.
But the biggest thing, this has been answered years and years ago. Phoenix Downs don't recover from death, just knock out.
I mean I feel like that's pretty obvious. Final Fantasy games tend to have civilians and innocents die too. Why would we freak out if you can just throw a phoenix down on them? Death would be irrelevant in Final Fantasy lore if Downs actually did that.
Actually, if Phoenix Downs only recover from knockout, then aren't they pretty pointless anyway? Because if a character gets beaten unconscious, then you shouldn't need a special item to wake them up, just drop a couple of potions/hi-potions/cure spells on them and they'll be fine. But once a character hits 0 HP, they're 'dead', and normal recovery methods no longer work including (IIRC) inns.
So, I think the Aerith death is a plothole - either 0 HP (which Aerith would be after the skewering) means unconscious/knockout and Phoenix Downs are pointless because you can just wake them up with normal recovery methods, or 0 HP is dead and you should be able to bring her back with a Phoenix Down or Life spell.
Did nobody watch the Dead Space animated movies? I know they weren't exactly Akira or Toy Story but they weren't that bad and the first one provided an explanation.
An infector snuck onboard a transport ship that crash landed into the main ship (can't remember the name) then found its way to the morgue.
Thank You was wondering when someone was going to mention the movie.
Not to mention the marker stone drove the crew to madness and murder and the ones killed transformed into necromorphs
In Dead Space one of the DLCs or spin offs actually do explain how it was overrun by the necromorphs the humans start to hallucinate due to the marker and they start to see other humans as necromorphs so they will attack them thus leading the more necromorphs and so on.
Final fantasy 7 has the same rules as The film The Princess Bride. There is a difference between all dead and just mostly dead.
Just need a bit of chocolate.
Mostly dead means slightly alive.
@Undead gentlemen is the only reply here that understands the spirit of why i even made the original post
@Seal Games I know, right. A bunch of buzz kill ROUS's if you ask me. If they actually seen the movie, then they'll know what that means.
Actually, if it's TB, they probably did contract it, but TB has been with humanity pretty much from our beginnings. It only becomes lethal if it manages to actually make it to your lung tissue. People who don't live very rough and tumble lives with poor diets and sleeping conditions may never have TB develop, and sometimes you just get lucky and it never develops in the lungs. And yes, while TB is highly infectious, it's not like it's common cold levels of infectious. You can still dodge it through a modicum of hygiene. There is a reason humanity managed to live so long pre-TB treatments without killing every TB carrier like it's the zombie apocalypse. Not really a plot hole.
Seriously if Morgan hadn't lived the life he did, he might have lived a very long time with TB.
Arthur's symptoms, apart from broken blood vessels in his eyes and a red nose, really didn't appear until after the shipwreck, which I assume would take its toll on a person's health. So he may have survived it if he hadn't ever gotten on that boat.
@@derbydriver True enough.
Yea, If he had ran away with mary, Instead of hitting the bank. I'm sure he would have lived to see old age, but that probably Wouldn't make for a good story.
Carnage Racing yea being on that island for weeks in the perfect weather for TB to thrive seems to have done more damage than everything else.
@@derbydriver hes been coughing since chapter 2 when he goes to the house robbery with Javier... so hes been infected for a long time

"How Did a Single Necromorph Slaughter the USM Valor?"
Soldiers are trained to shoot at the center of mass, not limbs. It's not a plot hole when the game's lore and gameplay itself is crafted to make this point during the *tutorial*
In RDR2 I started wearing my mask after I was diagnosed with tuberculosis because I felt like Aurther would try to avoid spreading the sickness and it helped with the immersion in addition to fixing a plot hole
Since Tuberculosis is spread by extremely close breath contact and droplets in that breath, since except in stiff open world Arthur never coughs on someone (usually holding it in when someones around him even in open world in fact) Thus not spreading it. The doctor scene is the closest to being a plot hole but because Arthur never directly coughs or even exhales on the doctor (always above him) it does not spread.
Plot hole fixed because it was never really there to begin with.
if you watch the movie Dead Space: Downfall it pretty much shows you how one Necromorph could take over a whole ship
Tb isn't nearly as contagious as people think on top of that people can go years without showing any symptoms.
A much bigger problem with Uncharted games is completing absolutely impossible climbs to access ruins that haven't been seen in thousands of years, only to immediately encounter random goons. That, or finally finding Shambala or whatever lost city and realizing that it is totally visible from basically any airplane.
Yeah at least the plothole of the cities seen by air is solved in u3 because they're in a cave.
rdr: i’ve had this argument so many times but tuberculosis doesn’t work like that. just google it. as for a possible reason why the others weren’t infected, it’s possible that arthur was ill from colter or, failing that, he did actually nearly die in chapter 3 which could have caused the switch from latent to active. this “plot hole” is caused from a lack of knowledge honestly
Exactly it’s easier to catch it if you spend every waking moment with someone. Like Doc Holliday who’s mother and adopted brother had it. It laid dormant in him for 6 years before he showed any symptoms.
@@TheRevyr1666 I think Arthur got TB from Hosea. He was sick from the beginning, always coughing and saying how 'its getting worse' and he 'doesn't have much time left'. I've always thought that Downes guy was a red herring just to make Arthur reflect on his actions.
Brendan Mc very well could be, but Tb is transferred through bodily fluids and Downes spit up right in Arthurs face. He probably wouldn’t have even gotten sick if it wasn’t for Guarma.
Can you just ban Scott from making lists? Every one of his is flawed and terrible
This particular list wasn't written by him.
RE2: The two games in that direct sequence actually occur within two concurrent months, according to official RE lore, with Nemesis happening in late September while the military still has some manner of control over the quarantine, and RE2 largely happening the following weeks in early-to-mid October. Umbrella had, by that point, used their not-inconsiderable influence within the government to seize control of the quarantine, allowing them to introduce BOW's to the already mostly empty city as it was the perfect testing ground, but also allowing Claire and Leon to slip through since the UBCS and USS forces waging covert war on each other inside the city limits kind of made the quarantine all but useless at keeping anything out. Raccoon City became a roach motel at that point.
Dead Space: It was rather easy for a single Slasher-type Necro to take down the entire Valor because the military personnel aboard had no clue how to fight it. This means they'd be using head and body shots when engaging it, which are effectively useless in canon as far as doing lasting damage as proximity to the Red Marker would mean the Slasher could jump in and out of engagements, killing more each time, and healing when it retreated into the vents. The proximity to the Marker at that late stage in the game also meant that at least one or two members of the Valor's crew were likely going through the first stages of psychic infection, and it really only takes one dead body to let the Marker signal convert the dead flesh however it chose. The second that Slasher got loose on the Valor, there was only one real outcome.
Personally (for the Dead Space one) I always thought that the one that got onto that other ship was one of those regenerating jerks(Regenerators?) and that that's how it took them all on.
That and they probably didn’t have anything to deal with a necromorph, or any knowledge on how to actually kill one...Bullets have been proven to not work, hence why the plasma gun really only works in longer bursts as opposed to the plasma cutter killing instantly
@@Krosstic Except that there is no reason to think it was anything other than a normal, one man kills hundreds of the things through the game, necromorph. Plus, the gun that shoots bullets is one of the most effective weapons in the game.
It makes ZERO sense from any logical standpoint. It's simple one man army game logic. You find it in all forms of zombie/monster games. Somehow, one person... who may not have any combat training at all... can plow through hoards of the things, whatever the things are, but highly trained security and military personnel can't handle even one.
Ryan Murphy Ill give you that issac should have died but I mean no protagonist no game, but I can believe a necromorph could massacre an entire ship, not to mention the Infector forms aren’t the only thing that cause a human to become a fleshy wall of blades and death, proximity to the marker is what helps it along, so really he only had to kill at max three or four before dying himself before everything kicked off, domino effect
@@Krosstic goods points. Did feel kinda sudden in game regardless
Metal Gear Mk III's electric whip is the same tendril it uses to jack into computers. Pay attention.
where do i start oh i know the fact that in the darkness 2 jackie is left in hell with his final fate entirely unknown after the angelus takes over jenny also it is never explained how johnny powell knows so much about how the darkness acts and the brotherhood also the spear of destiny shows up in the vendattas mode with no mention of the other artifacts and no expliation of how the brotherhood got the spear in the first place i know how detailed the darkness' worldbuilding is because of the comics so there is no justiable reason for these plotholes to go unexplained
I'd say RE3's mention of Raccoon City being under quarantine yet Leon and Claire managing to enter it anyway in RE2 can be explained by the fact that the US government had already decided to nuke the city so they likely told whoever was maintaining the quarantine to withdraw ahead of time. A bigger plot hole would be who boarded up all the doors and removed the puzzles in the RPD HQ for Jill, then removed the boards and put the puzzles back for Leon and Claire 24 hours later.
Heavy Rain: He was a mobster linked to a Serial Killer, why would he involve the police?
Resident Evil 2: They can't cover all roads in and out of the city. Even the forest was full of zeds (look at Outbreak's "Flashback" level).
Final Fantasy: Cos both Materia and Downs are game mechanics. They're there to help you play, they don't function as they do in the game's "reality". He actually had nothing to save her with, so couldn't.
These are the only ones I played that I can refute. Metal Gear I agree with. The rest, meh, not my games anyway.
Even the one for MGS can be refuted. You can't expect a small machine to operate and defend itself from a group of fast-moving machines.
That and phoenix downs clearly say that they revive KO'd members in their description, not dead ones.
Right, wasn’t that dudes son a serial killer in his own right. Why hell would he involve the cops with a son like that.
If you watch the Dead Space animated short, which shows what happens on the Ishimura, and read a bit about the lore, you would know that the way the Necromorphs work is not the traditional zombie way of, “Necromorph bites or kills someone, that person turns into Necromorph”, it’s actually much worse than that. The Markers, which is what the USS Ishimura discovers on the unexplored planet they were sent to mine, is a connector to an alien overmind, but also a wave beacon (or transponder). What do the waves do? Well, anyone who can be made to go insane, and can be controlled by the Marker because of their genetic predisposition to insanity or their weak minds, is. Those people work for the Marker, killing as many people as possible, and because the Markers are controlling them, they can eventually be morphed into Necromorphs. Peoples’ spines become the, I guess you would call them “infectors” for the Necromorphs after that. They are the flappy-skin-wingy type enemies you find in the game. The people that die are then sought out by the flappy-skin-wingy type necromorphs, and are then also transmutated into Necromorphs as well. More people go crazy, get killed by those crazies, and more people die from the Necromorphs (which it has been made perfectly clear from the games that they are NOT easy to kill) and more and more Necromorphs get produced. Even if someone has a strong will and sane mind, the Marker is constantly trying to break down that person’s will by showing them hallucinations, horrific scenes of loved ones dying, or just messing with their minds. That, combined with the nightmare of actually dealing with the Necromorphs and watching people around you get butchered and having them constantly chase you, eventually makes even the strongest of people lose their sanity, and give in to the Marker’s control. So if the Necromorphs don’t get you, the Markers will. That’s how a whole ship got taken over. The Dead Space universe and Necromorphs are freaking terrifying.
I recall asking about the revival of Aerith years ago and the (reasonable) answer is that "dying" in combat was actually a K.O. or knockout, whereas Aerith actually died.
"Plot holes"
Oh you mean "I don't know enough about the games lore or how things work so I'll just call it a plot hole"
Please don’t change. Over the past year this channel has become my favourite on RUclips.
Does Scott ever actually research anything he uses as talking points? If he does it clearly doesn’t show.
Doesn't he just read a script he was given?
@@Killer4fun Well, he writes his own script, so...
No, he's too busy virtue signaling and maintaining his Guy Fieri (minus the flavor town) aesthetics.
Another bad list made by yours truly Scott. Let's list the problems with this one.
1)scott destroyed the evidence.
2)who said that Leon and Claire weren't in a different part of the city? Even if we disregard that the creator of the game still gave a good explanation. Zombies attacked the army which made them leave their positions and Leon and Claire were able to pass through.
3)Snake really did have to do that. Did you even play the game?
4)they were probably trying to kill the necromorph in the incorrect way. You even see a writing that said that head shots do nothing against them. Thru were also probably trying to study it and it got loose.
5)because game mechanics are different than the actual world. Why didn't he turn sephiroth to a frog in the movie?
6)because that's not how the disease works.

7 is actually easy to explain- Haytham is former assassin and a templar leader. So it begs to reason he can have someone keep an eye on his love/son or keep an eye out himself, because he has skills to do so. He could also figure it out from similarities or use eagle vision (as it is blood ability) to determine it. Or, you know, once new assassin popped up, he could just have used old fashion detective work to figure it out. AC lore offers so many options for that, so yeah, no wonder
We don’t know if Arthur infected anybody else. For all we know, after the game, tons of people could’ve realized they’d been infected by Arthur.

In my opinion, Scott being the origami killer would’ve worked better if he suffered from multiple personality disorder rather than being an unreliable narrator. One personality where he’s genuinely trying to catch the killer without realising that his other personality is the killer. It’d give him more depth as a character and when he’d eventually finds out the truth, it’d be interesting to see how he deals with it and how he wrestles with conscience.
FYI, King Leoric had 2 sons, one became the vessel for Diablos soul which Leorics second son, Aidan, killed. What would be strange is that Aidan doesn't seem to scream out in horror when he realised that he had just killed his younger brother. Aidan, had been to war, and had just returned. When Aidan takes the crimson soulstone he tries to contain Diablos soul within himself which we all know failed pretty hard so he became the dark wanderer. Love the Diablo lore books, i.e. Book of Cain, Book of Tyrael and Book of Adria.
To me Diablo 3 didn't shake that much up. If you listen to conversations and talk to people in Diablo 2 you can learn much details about what happend in Diablo 1 and between the games.

Well do we really know its just 1 necromorph? Escape pods usually carry a few people in sci fi stuff, especially a ship as big as a literal planet cracker. There was most likely more than 1, and maybe even more than 1 infector. In close quarters with the Valor’s crew completely shocked, not to mention the lack of mining equipment great at cutting off limbs of the necromorphs its not too unlikely
It was shut into the pod by the Captain, and launched. There is no reason to assume there was anything on board other than a single, normal , necromorph.
The pulse rifle is one of the most effective guns in the game, that's no excuse either. There is no logical reason for it, it's just another example of a games antagonist being able to mow down hundreds of enemies, while the people who should be the most effective at dealing with such treats, are totally useless. ALL zombie games suffer from this cliche.
Hell, it's practically the cornerstone of all action movies and games.
Hey whatculture,
I think you should check your lore/tropes.
Ff7 lore states in game that the masamune (sephy's sword) prevents reviving.
Conor looks kinda like hathem, and let's be honest, the templars have been shown to track the assassin order.
And, Leon literally breaks nearly every natural law in that world. So, of course him and those around him can do anything including fly.
The reason that no one caught tuberculosis from Arthur is that he never coughs on anyone and some people might of caught it but people who catch tuberculosis don’t start coughing the next day it takes some time and most of the time it doesn’t get bad
The way tuberculosis works isn't the way Scott explains it. Tuberculosis works in the manner that when you get it it isn't that deadly unless you're in bad health. Arthur was pretty beaten up after what happened in Guarma and he was in a tropical weather when he needed to be in a dry weather like New Austin so his tuberculosis went from latent to active due to the weather and his health. It has nothing to do with the way he coughs or what he does in camp or with the gang.
There's actually an extension to Resident Evil 2. A series of novelizations written by S D Perry and licensed by Capcom.
AC III can easily be explained thanks to numerous different precursor artifacts. Most likely the case is that he approached Achilles, who told him the truth (makes most sense for a plot hole).
So the RDR2 thing isn’t as bad as you might think (spoilers); TB is a deadly disease, but can lie dormant for a very long time, as long as you remain relatively healthy. Arthur’s cough hadn’t developed until he was captured and tortured in Chapter 3, and it didn’t get really bad until he was shipwrecked and nearly died from that later on. Some folks do get a particularly nasty mutated strain, but most TB infections remain dormant and the carrier’s immune system keeps the disease in check, until compromised long enough for the virus to gain a solid foothold in the lungs. Arthur would have been at his most contagious during the final stages when he was projectile coughing blood, but he was pretty good about covering his mouth while coughing. And by then, everyone was in pretty good health, and wouldn’t have been as susceptible.
At worst he may well have infected Micah as he’s the only person who I can remember getting close while Arthur coughed, near the end of Chapter 6, but we also don’t see much of Micah’s life in the epilogue to see if he would have ended up with a compromised immune system to allow the virus to activate, until the end of his life.
Arthur morgan may have infected everyone in camp for all we know, Tuberculosis can lay dormant and some people never even develop symptoms. I like to think that's what killed Abigail in red dead 1 after John is killed and it cuts to Jack, abigail inexplicably has died off screen. I like to think the trauma of losing John triggered her dormant TB and rapid decline. That's obviously retcon but they dont explain it anyways, so its as good a guess as any.
If you watched the animated movie, it explains how the Necromorphs were created, it didnt have to be from an infector, the Marker can warp the mind and long term exposure will then turn you into a Necromorph. In fact the marker can reanimate dead corpses on it's own so if one slasher kills 2 people, they can get reanimated and make more by killing.
Spoiler in rdr2 Arthur does in fact pass on the illness. On my second play through I noticed one man began to look a little I’ll pretty fast. Hosea, him being old his body would probably be hit harder and it work faster than Arthur. On my second play through I noticed hosea would be out of breath a lot at camp and go into extreme coughing fits. You should look more into that.
Here is a scene showing one of hoseas coughing fits, remember Arthur got tb from downes so he had it pretty much the whole game.
(watch?v=WFfAXheOJNo)
Who says Claire and Leon came from outside raccoon city and not just another part of the city that you can drive from
Nope, in the old games and the reboot you can see them pass a obvious "Welcome to Racoon city" sign or "Racoon city" highway sign when approaching the city.
shanobian Leon is reporting to raccoon city police during the opening. It even shows him and Claire entering the city.
Yeah they live in raccoon city but don't hear about the zombie breakout and evacuation?
foran43 they don’t live in Raccoon City. It clearly states in the game that they both arrive to the city during the opening.
@@olivergaither yeah I know I was asking a question to the guy who said they may have lived there and I'm saying if they lived there why didn't they evacuate or hear of the ourbreak
dead space had an animated film that was the prequel to the game. It highlighted the events and origins of the necromorphs and how the stone infected the minds of the crew... the crew began killing each other while they were alive, but when they died they became necromorphs... the crew consisted of miners, a handful of peace officers and a religious group that worshipped the stone infecting everyone's minds ... kinda shocked this made the list considering the film was released YEARS ago.
#4 Saying anyone who has played the game couldn't think of it. But its pretty easy to think of. It was a Regenerator. There has been a Regenerator in every single Deadspace game. There are clearly more than 3 (as in the third game you fight dozens) so its not unthinkable that the Necromorph they picked up was one of those Regenerators.
In FF7, death occurs in two stages. When the body ceases function you are 'dead', but then your soul has to return to the planet. At which point you're part of the Lifestream and likely can't be resurrected. It's also common speculation that Aeris allowed herself to die 'completely' to make sure Holy would activate.
Granted it would have been helpful if they'd showed Cloud at least TRY some of these measures, like when Galuf dies in 5 or the twins get turned to stone in 4.
Crazy Earl from the Borderlands series lives on Pandora in the first game, moves to its moon during the presequel only to be found living on Pandora again during the second game. I doubt he had the money for the first move.
R.I.P Arthur Morgen
That could’ve gone smoother
8:11 From what I know, they are not really dead. In some FF games, the are alive again with 1 HP after the fight, in some not. Depending on the circumstances, they don't really die and are only unconscious or something, and in this case, it was different. I know, it sounds like trying to explain a plot hole and maybe it is, but yeah, the first part still stands, but doesn't need to mean it was the case here (too), ofc.
No, it's accurate. Being incapacitated and unable to fight beyond your limits isn't the same as dying.
The manual says Pheonix Downs only recover you from KO, they were stupidly named.
It was explained in the forsaken novel that Haytham had his suspicions because a native assassin was walking around threatening Templar’s (Charles lee and the others told him this) and the moment Haytham caught a glimpse of Connors face when he was imprisoned he knew Connor was a Kenway (on top of Connor wearing the necklace of the only Native American woman Haytham has ever banged)
That RDR2 one is ridiculous. We literally had sanitariums for people with TB during that time period and up until we found a treatment for it. Some of those sanitariums were islands in order to get the infected population even more isolated. That is how seriously TB was taken. We would literally exile people to otherwise uninhabited islands that only had staff and the sanitarium buildings on them to keep TB from spreading in the general population.
These plotholes are written around selling points made to draw the player in. They don't make sense because it's supposed to add to the theatrical experience, not the story itself.

Reasons Arthur didn't spread his TB:
1. While TB is highly contagious, most people who are infected just become asymptomatic carriers.
2. Actual illness can take several months after initial infection to occur, and considering that RDR2 takes place entirely over a few months, Arthur didn't become symptomatic until close to the end, and barely any of the gang survived, it's entirely possible that no one had time to develop symptoms.
In MGS4, I felt that there are many sub-themes. One of it for Snake was that he has come to realise his fate and was to stop the pandemic from happening. And he wants to go away in a memorable way. I felt that why he went through that said tunnel to GW was to in a way, try to go off in a bang. To be that man who goes through all odds to get things done.
Maybe he didn't expect to finish his task alive, as seen in the very last scene where he tries to commit suicide, but doesn't. Why he prevent his own death was because I felt that he is still finding the meaning to his..." cloned" life, other than this fruitless war. The revelation and speech by Big Boss, his Father, created closure to his wandering soul.

I'll take my paycheck now Whatculture.
iirc all necromorphs are infectious over time, but even barring that the USM Valor had no info at all on how to deal with the necromorphs.
Standard bullets to center mass or even the head do jack all, and that would be the go to in enemy engagements.
tbf, there's no knowing how many weapons of the dismemberment variety usm valor had, and they probably made the mistake of shooting centre mass anyway. Its very likely the group who opened the pod was so surprised they had no chance of killing it, plus they were close enough to the marker that one could of possibly become an infector when this group turned, not to mention the marker drives people crazy so many of the crew may have killed themselves and/or others.
while less emotionally impactfull the classical "Dying NPC gives you healing/revival items before death" is much worse logic wise.
prime example that springs to mind would be our old friend Oscar of astora in dark souls one, who gives us the trusty estus flask due to him beeing "to wounded to continue on"...
About the Necromorph thing... did the crew know to de-limb the creature? I was under the impression that as long as they had their limbs those things were immortal. If I’m wrong then I’m wrong, but that was the impression I got...
Damit keep Scott off the lists
In all fairness I think Haytham could have pieced 2 and 2 together by the fact that Connor looked like him and was around the age of any possible child of him and Connor's mother
I feel like there could have been more than one group of space pirates, ya know?
Space pirates is a pretty generic term, that could apply to more than one group of people. Could have been one lot that didn't break through and one lot that did and got assimilated, or 50 lots even, it's a REALLY generic term that can describe a lot of different things, and there's no mention on the number of space pirates that I recall sooooooooooo........
I didnt think anyone would try to copy Looper on quality or rather lack of quality of content. Yet here we are.
Revive doesn't mean resurrect. CPR can be used to revive someone but it cannot resurrect the dead. Aerith's injuries were fatal and there is nothing that can resurrect her. If they could do that then there would be other references about bringing people back to life in the game. Why didn't the Shinra President get resurrected? Surely being the most important man in the world would have had someone from his company bring him back if resurrection was a thing, right?
How was the MK 3 expected to hold off all those scarabs.
I've actually been giving the Resident Evil 2 conundrum some thought, and I think I have an answer, but it's a stretch:
Through Claire's knowledge of Raccoon City, having a brother that lives there and having, presumably, traveled there on numerous occasions if not having been born their, I'm positive there are old, *old,* logging trails over the mountain that anyone in the know could take, would have been removed from maps decades ago, would have cut hours off of Claire's trip from having to go around them, and would have facilitated gaps in any governmental response to quarantine the place 100%.
Leon just got lost and bumbled in, in near the exact same way. Or perhaps got directions from a friendly "in-the-middle-of-nowhere," gas station attendant that just happened to notice his uniform and casually informed him of a quicker route (which would also land him in near the same place to run into Claire)
RE: RDR2 tuberculosis. TB can actually be non-symptomatic for years or sometimes decades. Arthur may very well have infected other gang members, they simply didn’t become symptomatic during the events of the game. After playing both games? I’ve suspected Abigail died of TB...she died three years after John and while Rockstar never clarified why, I have suspicions she died of TB that didn’t show up until a decade later...which happens. Actually there is a fan theory that Downes didn’t actually infect Arthur...it’s not likely that Arthur could become symptomatic that fast after exposure. If you listen to in-camp dialogue you’ll hear Hosea coughing a lot and many other characters recognizing his illness and even Dutch talking about his “whistling pipes.” Hosea may have been suffering from TB and had infected Arthur some time before the events of the game.
I wonder if they will change Aeris scene in the remake, as iconic scene it may be, adding a new twist on it would be nice.
Fun fact, TB can take months or even YEARS, to show symptoms. But I'm sure Rockstar just wanted to move the plot along and make it more dramatic.
I don’t know if anyone else has commented on the MGS4 “plot hole” on here yet. That electrified chord is only effective against one target at a time. And everyone at the briefing knew that the AI mainframe would be heavily guarded just in case someone or something got passed the microwave corridor. So that’s not a plot hole.
Also the mk 3 cant travel that far away from snake. That might only be a gameplay thing, but its still there
Hol Your Horses I totally forgot about that lol but you’re right, it can’t go that far at least in gameplay from Snake

Cool....and? At least put time stamps
The militia in Arkham Knight deploying empty drones for some reason despite Jason knowing that Batman won't kill.
Yeah
Yup. forced plot element for the sake of gameplay. They hint that it's so pilots could switch out between drones all over the town and AI does the rest and that would mean they actually didn't have enough pilots for all of them but a Jason determined to bring Batman down would have kidnapped civilians and strapped them in the drones.
7:48 This one is complicated; and the only Final Fantasy that makes sense of this is Final Fantasy 5 (where the characters literally try to bring a fallen member back to life)
l kinda remember Haythan saying that he lived with some natives and having a wife,he tells Connor this didnt he?but anyways you can tell that as the player pretty much at the begining of te game,if you have at least two working brain cells that is his father.
Oh and the RE2 plot,they are supposed to be cops or private agents just doing their job? At least all RE games have the same story in this aspect
For FFVII : they revealed years after the game's release that they first wanted to include a way to resurect Aeris, that's why you can see a ghost in Midgar after leaving the city. But the limitations of CDs (it was already a 4 CD game !) meant they could not implement that. The white materia was the one supposed to bring her back. They completely acknowledged that plot hole and apologised for it... What will the remasterisation do with that? *shrug*
Wait... the logs from the phazon mine say the Pirates found Prime during their later excavation of phazon and that it too was burrowing away from the meteor that struck Talon, just as the Purates were burrowing around and towards the meteor. THAT IS EXPLAINED IN GAME! 🤬
Ofcourse its Scott!!
My plot hole is from Vampyr; why does the Guard of Priwen know you’re a vampire right away, without seeing you properly but the NPCs you talk to dont, even when your eyes change color depending on how many people you’ve eaten? It’s annoying.
6:53 probably because they don’t die...MandaloreGaming explains its best...”Basically, every cell in this thing wants you dead...I don’t think you’re really killing them.” Plus it’s explained that their skin is basically formed into armor and bullets don’t work, USM valor being a destroyer I highly doubt they’re have rock cutter saws or a plasma cutter on hand, so it’d probably just be able to run rampant without repercussions
I always figured that Metroid Prime was built in a lab, escaped, and got into the Impact Crater on it's own.
