At the end of Prototype 1 game, Alex mentioned: "the virus copy him down to genetic level". So in this case the "virus" think he the real one and start spreading infection; until the Real Alex recover from the injured he got onthe previous game, and show up to expose the "fake Alex".
I know, but my point is if the audience want to see Alex vs Alex; the producer should make the virus resurrect the real Alex and have him fight the Fake Alex that "copy him down to genetic level".
4:20 Blackwatch soldier 1:Hey guys,check this s**t out! Blackwatch soldier 2:Wow,is that........Mercer?! Blackwatch soldier 1:Yeah,and he's fighting himself! Blackwatch soldier 2:How the f*** is that even possible?! Blackwatch soldier 1:How the f*** should I know?! Blackwatch soldier 3:Would you two shut the Hell up already?! I'm trying to watch the fight! Blackwatch soldier 1:Fine.I vote for Mercer! Blackwatch soldier 3:Really?I want Mercer to win. Blackwatch soldier 2:Wait,what's Mercer doing? Alex:Here--catch! All of them: *OH S**T!!!* *Alex trows the helicopter that they were in* *BOOM*
A better plot : After Heller gets his revenge on Captain Ass-Hat,the real Alex Mercer (Prototype 1) Calls Heller and says "Yo dawg,dem Gentek cloned me and shet.You wanna kick that Emo fuck's ass ?" And Heller is like : "Sure thing,dawg." and then they kick the clone's ass.
lazorize that could be something that could happen, cause in this, his arms are ripped off at the end and he could grow back from that, like at the end of prototype 1
From watching this video, an alternative plot came to mind for 'Prototype 2'. After Alex Mercer manages to eliminate the Blacklight Virus from NYC and save the the city from the warhead in the first game, he, through genetic replication/cloning, mutation of the virus he carries, or some other means, becomes split into two halves: one half being his morally-questionable, cynical anti-hero protagonist self, and the other half a corrupt, heartless, evil Alex Mercer with a messiah-complex who serves as the main antagonist, hell bent on humanity's destruction in favor of creating a new world built on a virus he created & unleashed. Throughout the story, the good Alex must battle evil Alex's virus/evolved forces while working with Dana and James Heller (whose daughter was captured by evil Alex) until finally confronting evil Alex himself. Evil Alex is portrayed as stronger & more ruthless than the good Alex, but with help from Dana, Heller, and his own militia, Alex manages to defeat his evil self. Upon consuming him, Alex manages to eradicate all traces of evil Alex's virus throughout the city and frees Heller's daughter Maya. Heller thanks Alex for saving Maya and apologizes for doubting & blaming him before. Dana and Alex reconcile with their past and forgive one another's involvement in the Blacklight incidents. Once all traces of the virus have cleared, things begin settling down and return to normal in NYC. Gentek and Blackwatch are later investigated & and shut down for their involvement in the Hope, Idaho and NY incident, as well converting the Blacklight virus into a biological weapon. However, what happens to Alex afterwards is a mystery, and left unknown for fans/commenters/viewers to decide. While this plot may or may not be good or make sense enough to be an alternative game, this video of Alex Mercer fighting an evil version of himself seemed pretty interesting for a story.
In a way it the battle between the two mercers can symbolize many different things. On one hand the fight can represent a battle between the old personality of the original Alex who cared about nothing but himself and Blacklight who unlike his father does care for those he is close to. On the other hand if you use the comic book prequel, the evil Mercer as shown can represent an Alex who had seen the dark side of humanity lost in faith it's faith in and was push down into a spiraling pit of evil, meanwhile the good one can represent an Alex (who probably kept in contact with dana) who still kept his faith.
Well after Mercer "died" on the explosion of the nuke in Manhattan, he was reduced to nothing more than the virus that helped him become stronger and when in the last scene of the game itself, you could see the virus crawling out from the ocean and near a crow to sustain it's no host body, and used the crow as it's sustenance to form a new body, and here Mercer is no longer Mercer but the virus that once inhabited Mercer before now has a mind of its own to eliminate the world by infecting them with it's virus
What Mercer's idea was; "Ohh look at me, I'm so powerfull. I'll give these random guys (and girls) powers.Ohhh look james is getting stronger and stronger. I will let him do what he does. Ohh he's fighting with me. Ohhhh that's painful. Ohhh I'm dead :P (now voice from heaven) Ohh look he's cunsuming my body.." imagin that with a snob girl's voice
they didnt even bother getting mercer to transition form an intelligent, subliminally aggressive scientist to an ignorant, deluded idiot. At the end of Prototype, Alex said that he became something more than human, but also something less, showing that he is sophisticated enough to contemplate his actions in a self-critical way. Of course he is frequently lead by his boiling lust for revenge, but that does not transition into him being an idiotic sect leader. I like that they tried to do something different by making alex the villain. But making it different does not equal making it better. They did a shitty, unconvincing job with Alex. Would've been better if they didnt try to fix what wasnt broken and instead had improved upon what story and character development they had from the first game.
Wow..the most epic fighting...(Good)Alex Mercer vs (Evil) Alex Mercer (Good)Alex Mercer come from Prototype 1 to Prototype 2.. But (Good)Alex Mercer win!!!
I hate this ending couse heller will never be stronger than alex. Couse Alex was the most powerfull from them all, And for the end we see alex to use Hammerfist, Whisper, Claws and blade but in last fight you cut Whisper, Blade and hammerfist where are the Claws.?????? Why is he not using them????
the most fucked up thing they did in the game turn the protagonist of the first game in the villain of the second that is a suicide in the series..specially cause Alex Mercer is soo much better than Heller
"heller will never be stronger than alex" Even though heller consumed alex, and alex himself said "every living thing you consume makes you stronger" and since he was strong enough to KILL and CONSUME alex, he's is definitely stronger than alex now.
+Daniel Van that's because the producers wanted that way wich was stupid and that's why the first game is the best and everybody likes Alex instead of Heller..just like Infamous 2 is the best cause everybody likes Cole instead of Delsin
Should've done like they did with INJUSTICE 2. Two endings. One which Mercer loses, one he wins and consumes Heller. No offence and to be honest, Mercer would've obliterated Heller like swatting a fly. Fucker got into a Nuke's blast radius and survived. Only Superman can do that. And Mercer.
Wow I think I know why Heller had such a large tendril barrage devastator. It's most likely because of how much mass Mercer had because of how many people he has consumed.
Some fanboys need to stop obsessing over the villain, if you people had a choice, it would obviously be mercer winning, after that, boom, nothing, no earth, just a giant ball of virus in space.
Alex Mercer taunts and even gives advice to Heller during the fight, hmm. Alex didn’t use his shield, Claws, Armor, or Muscle Mass. 🤔. Alex Mercer didn’t try to absorb the flying creature or the infected that were on the ground in the thousands. Alex Mercer wasn’t angry, sad, or upset by being defeated, merely saying “Welcome to the top of the food chain”. No resentment or animosity, almost relief in a way. Then you receive a trophy that states “Murder your maker?”. Why’d they put a question mark in there? Heller cuts off Alex’s arms multiple times, but that can be explained by them being consumed by Hellers final devastator. Though I’m not saying anything, this all could make a very strong case of either two things. One: that Alex secretly wanted to die for any number of reasons and intentionally allowed Heller to win. Or that Alex wanted to be consumed so that eventually he would become himself again, gaining Hellers strong genetic resilience to being consumed and perhaps then having enough strength to go after Pariah.
Making the character have a family doesn't suddenly make them compelling or sympathetic. There's plenty of villains who have had families. In fact, I'd argue that Alex is more sympathetic because he's a tragic character.
Wow, people here are debating over who's stronger, Alex, or Heller. C'mon guys, it doesn't matter who's stronger. The strong one is the player, by playing as the character.
Of course it would be like that, simply because it's part of the story plot. The developers made it that way despite any controversial evidence/theories about who would be stronger.
This 'Mercer' isn't the real Alex Mercer from Prototype 1. Hell, he doesn't even sound like the real Alex. Alex would never kill his own sister, in order to eradicate humanity. He must obviously be a genetic clone/mutation created from the virus. As seen in the ending from the first game, after the nuke exploded, who's to say that puddle of mass from Alex was the only one there? There could've been another after the real Alex regenerated. That second pile of mass could've regenerated (probably from an infected organism) with all of Alex's memories, but acted on the virus itself while sentient and keeping his form. To spread the virus across and infect humanity once more, 'Mercer' dove into Alex's memories when he (regrettably) released the virus at Penn Station in the first place. Deciding to finish what Alex started, or what he couldn't do, Mercer released the virus again at Penn Station on a much bigger scale, calling itself and being known as the "Mercer Virus". This would be the start of the Heller-Mercer conflict. On a separate, more enjoyable page, while still soul-searching in the world, the real Alex Mercer would get wind or be informed of the outbreak of a new strain of the Blacklight virus in New York. Now being known as "New York Zero" and seeing what this new strain of the virus has done as a result of 'Alex Mercer' being the cause of it, the real Alex would return to New York and battle the forces of the infected, Blackwatch, Gentek, and Mercer's Evolved with aid of his sister Dana, James Heller, Father Guerra, and Sabrina Galloway (maybe) while finding the truth of what happened. At the climax, both Alex and Heller would confront Mercer (the fake/evil Alex) and defeat him, as he would be more powerful than the two. Upon being defeated, Mercer would then be consumed by either Alex or Heller and the one would then release an enormous barrage of tendrils across the city, eliminating all traces of the Mercer Virus. In the end, Heller would reunite with his daughter Maya while Alex would apologize & reconcile with Dana, and all would watch the sunrise as they ponder what is going to happen now.
Mercer in the first game : "Wow,I have powers.Better find out how I got them.Oh wait,i'm the virus ?! And I saved New York." Prototype 2 : "Eh,better give my powers to this guy for some reason."
What makes it worse? The "hero" that's being trumpeted as morally better and more relatable is even WORSE when it comes to savoring the violence and murder resulting from his powers. Between that and the constant swearing, I frigging loathed Heller by the time I very reluctantly finished Alex off. Doesn't help every character makes the most depraved people look like schoolyard bullies. Prototype 2 is the most disappointing game I've ever played.
You seem to misunderstand me; I agree with you about Alex. I was citing the lackluster and boring ball of rage that was James Helller. The game designers were promoting Heller as morally and ethically better than Alex, and well... he swore a lot.
When I got Prototype 2 and heard the things Alex was saying in this mission, I just thought "What the fuck did they do to you man?". Seriously, in the first game, he actually hated having these powers because of all the people he had to kill with them, now, he's all "holly holly killings jolly".
THAT was exactly the mission I was thinking of when I wrote the comment! You can put as much action in a game as you want but in 1st person you just FEEL it And as a limited soldier in a dangerous world against a godlike enemy (Alex or Heller) you develop so many stunning feelings like fear, paranoia or anger (for example if someone of your team dies in front of you prvided had feelings for him) But unfortunately it will be just a dream...for ever.. XD
lol we can see that the virus is controlling alex mercerer we can see that alex in prototype 2 has his normal tallness but here he is a giant in front of his old self
I like how in trailers they made this game look so fucking epic. I bought this game a few weeks after it came out. Prototype 2 was boring as shit. Like ya cool better moves, better graphics apparently. But I don't know. The game just seemed boring I don't know what it is about that game but whatever it is. It just makes it boring. So I beat the game then I sold it. I still play the first prototype, and I never get bored of that game.
Well this is a case of reverse plot armour instead of Alex being able to kill heller (which he would) heller HAS to kill Alex (even though Alex would be able to kill heller in a second)
You know what would be an awesome game? A FIRST PERSON SHOOTER OF PROTOTYPE! Just imagine you were a blackwatch soldier being able to see the world from a completly different view! I mean, flying in helicopters, driving vehicels and fighting against the whole creatures would be so much more action packed! Of course P1 and P2 are awesome but if you are a normal human without special powers...that would be an exciting game...that's what I think.. XD
MERCER IS STRONGER THEN HELLER ITS GONE BE PROTOTYPE 3 HELER COFRD HIS BODY NOT HIS ARMS AND AT THE AND OF PROTOTYPE 1 HE WHET HIS ARMS AND BIRD BACK TO LIFE
I would LOVE to hear Alex's voice actor say the brutal one liners Heller said. It would have made it better. And I'm one of the many rare people who like Heller
well , dont worry , there may still have a chance that Prototype 3 will come out , just ... not create by Radical Entertainment , and if it really come out , there will just have 2 results , P3 even worse than P2 , or awesome as P1 , as wut we see , P2 was completely a fail , sxxtty storyline , and the whole game process were way too easy even in insane difficulty , Radical Entertainment closed maybe is the only way to save the prototype series , still ... this is very sad
its just a skin it was really james heller a milltry officer or something and james uses the power of revenge as fuel for his attacks so he is very very powerful and according to the end of prototype 2 stronger than alex who defeated elizabeth greene in the first prototype who started the virus
Just like a battle of "Mercer vs. the Mirror Mercer" or "Mercer vs. Dark Mercer" or should I say "THE GOOD MERCER VS. THE BAD MERCER" (whoa.. That'll be cool!!) And yeah... jefthereaper is right.. :) Mercer really hated himself.. :)
the evil alex mercer is not him its the monster alex mercer killed in prototype 1 final boss the monster consumed mercer's hands and both of them died on the blast and the monster which consumed mercer's hand, live but with a new look as mercer and is also still has the evil but still he has the memory of alex mercer which was to cure the world and his plan was to kill the government and cure everyone which is why when we use alex mercers skin it says the legend is back form dead and so many words
Yeah, Barry Pepper didn't return for P2. Rumor says it was because of how they handled Alex's character. As for changing the voice, well... that would require effort.
He isn't a hero,he' an antihero. Remember the difference between protagonist (main character) and her (morally just). Hell, he even says "I'm not a fucking hero."
i think alex in prototype 1 could beat alex in prototype 2 cuz alex could control the virus in prototype 1 but alex in prototype 2 was controlled by the virus

I don't get it. When did Alex become fucking crazy? He seems nothing like Alex from the first game......
why did they take away mercer's devastator
Mercer in the first game : "Wow,I have powers.Better find out how I got them.Oh wait,i'm the virus ?! And I saved New York." Prototype 2 : "Eh,better give my powers to this guy for some reason."
He wanted to make another race of his own.

this is all mercer's fault if he didn't give heller that power this wouldn't have happened and mercer could have killed him when he had the chance
When I got Prototype 2 and heard the things Alex was saying in this mission, I just thought "What the fuck did they do to you man?". Seriously, in the first game, he actually hated having these powers because of all the people he had to kill with them, now, he's all "holly holly killings jolly".
in prototype 2 he connected his mind to the hive so that's when he felt evil
THAT was exactly the mission I was thinking of when I wrote the comment! You can put as much action in a game as you want but in 1st person you just FEEL it
And as a limited soldier in a dangerous world against a godlike enemy (Alex or Heller) you develop so many stunning feelings like fear, paranoia or anger (for example if someone of your team dies in front of you prvided had feelings for him)
But unfortunately it will be just a dream...for ever.. XD
lol we can see that the virus is controlling alex mercerer we can see that alex in prototype 2 has his normal tallness but here he is a giant in front of his old self
this game would be better if it wasn't black and white in the cutscenes
Good Alex Mercer vs Evil Alex Mercer.
I do love this fight, but I feel like it should have been his armored self he was fighting. idk
Go kill itachi
no need to snap, just voicing my opinion
if you jump off the stage , mercer will pull you back by using whipfist , and thats will cause u lots of health
Alex is bigger in his evolved compared to Heller/Alex
Disappointing regardless. Was expecting more freedom during the fight. Could've made for a more memorable clash.
Mercer still has control, he wanted to get absorbed so heller could stop the virus and it worked.
Spoilers: Alex Mercer is James heller’s dlc skin
Real Alex Mercer Never used that fking shield
I like how in trailers they made this game look so fucking epic. I bought this game a few weeks after it came out. Prototype 2 was boring as shit. Like ya cool better moves, better graphics apparently. But I don't know. The game just seemed boring I don't know what it is about that game but whatever it is. It just makes it boring. So I beat the game then I sold it. I still play the first prototype, and I never get bored of that game.
+Vic Fed hammerfist and blade are too op
This soundtrack has to be one of the best boss battle soundtracks I have EVER heard.
Alex Mercer: why are you short?
should had made the cutscenes colorful and not just black and white this ins"t a 1980s show
jalen lanier 1980's were colorful, I think you mean more 1950's and 1960's.
In prototype, Alex has his own armor & shield right? Why it not shown in P2? ?_?
Well this is a case of reverse plot armour instead of Alex being able to kill heller (which he would) heller HAS to kill Alex (even though Alex would be able to kill heller in a second)
I really wish I can play as Alex with his original powers and moves in P2.How would a badass game?
Думаю да
You know what would be an awesome game?
A FIRST PERSON SHOOTER OF PROTOTYPE!
Just imagine you were a blackwatch soldier being able to see the world from a completly different view! I mean, flying in helicopters, driving vehicels and fighting against the whole creatures would be so much more action packed! Of course P1 and P2 are awesome but if you are a normal human without special powers...that would be an exciting game...that's what I think.. XD
Might be a fun little spin off or DLC to be honest. Not sure it would warrant the name Prototype without Mercer/Heller powers.
Who likes Alex Mercer like here
I love alex mercer
I sort of heard it when I cranked the volume to the max for 1 second
MERCER IS STRONGER THEN HELLER ITS GONE BE PROTOTYPE 3 HELER COFRD HIS BODY NOT HIS ARMS AND AT THE AND OF PROTOTYPE 1 HE WHET HIS ARMS AND BIRD BACK TO LIFE
Mercer = fucking badass
Alex heller wins this fight
prototype1 vs prototype 2 vs prototype 3
I also like alex his cool
Who likes Heller like here
I would LOVE to hear Alex's voice actor say the brutal one liners Heller said. It would have made it better. And I'm one of the many rare people who like Heller
I am from the future, we have AI that can do that for you
go mercer alex vs james heeler
when alex shit use hammerfist beat him with whipfist and tendrils... 100% unbeatable combos :P
True Mercer stronger
shit him up heller
fudge i spoil too much i didnt even know why alex became evil and destroy the earth
One of my fav quotes from the game
dobro vs zlo
2:43 CAUTION SPOILER ALERT!
Huh, welcome to the top of the food chain.
"Don't trust anyone, not even yourself"
now i see
now that i think of it, the title of the mission should be "Murder Yourself"
xd
another thought: the mercer ur playing is the playable character in prototype 1 while the enemy is the virus that opied you, every single dna
poor alex
Nevermind, I just click to first power and right-click to second power example: Left Click For Claws And Right Click For Whipfist
well , dont worry , there may still have a chance that Prototype 3 will come out , just ... not create by Radical Entertainment , and if it really come out , there will just have 2 results , P3 even worse than P2 , or awesome as P1 , as wut we see , P2 was completely a fail , sxxtty storyline , and the whole game process were way too easy even in insane difficulty , Radical Entertainment closed maybe is the only way to save the prototype series , still ... this is very sad
its just a skin it was really james heller a milltry officer or something and james uses the power of revenge as fuel for his attacks so he is very very powerful and according to the end of prototype 2 stronger than alex who defeated elizabeth greene in the first prototype who started the virus
Maybe that was,t Alex mercer maybe it was the supreme hunter copied Alex DNA
Just like a battle of "Mercer vs. the Mirror Mercer" or "Mercer vs. Dark Mercer" or should I say "THE GOOD MERCER VS. THE BAD MERCER" (whoa.. That'll be cool!!)
And yeah... jefthereaper is right.. :) Mercer really hated himself.. :)
the evil alex mercer is not him its the monster alex mercer killed in prototype 1 final boss the monster consumed mercer's hands and both of them died on the blast and the monster which consumed mercer's hand, live but with a new look as mercer and is also still has the evil but still he has the memory of alex mercer which was to cure the world and his plan was to kill the government and cure everyone which is why when we use alex mercers skin it says the legend is back form dead and so many words
O may god
mercer consumed mercer how's that impossible??or maybe mercer consumed mercer so that's the same thing!
Yeah, Barry Pepper didn't return for P2. Rumor says it was because of how they handled Alex's character.
As for changing the voice, well... that would require effort.
He isn't a hero,he' an antihero. Remember the difference between protagonist (main character) and her (morally just). Hell, he even says "I'm not a fucking hero."
Well prototype3 have its in 2017 bit not came out its came out march
i think alex in prototype 1 could beat alex in prototype 2
cuz alex could control the virus in prototype 1 but alex in prototype 2 was controlled by the virus
You know one Alex mercer which is the one you play as it should be could Alex heller and the another one is just mercer so Alex heller wins
