WAS IT THE GRE? The ALIEN VIRUS That DESTROYED Humanity In Dying Light 2

- Look, I dont want to make waves or anything, but it really was aliens. In the events of Dying Light 2, Humanity would be absolutely BESIGED By a disease that would result in something known as "The Fall". With our species knocked on its heels, 98% of us would drop. But a question remains, was it really the GRE or was it something more? Today, lets discuss that concept as well as how this virus was so successful in the Homo sapiens population!

Day I don't remember requesting the plot twist from Dead Island 2 game
Thank you Dr Roanoke I was looking forward to this review of Dying light 2 for a long time now I just got to wait for you to review the hallucigenia Attack on Titan
Just as I was reinstating dying light 2
do days gone king come on i know you wanna
GRE (General Record Examinations)
A very detailed and interesting theory. Who knows maybe Techland are also alien developers?!
Will you guys ever explain the virus more?
With All The New Micro Transactions You're 100% Staying Human
@@IcE-_-Kidd💀💀
Yooooooo!
Should’ve made your game better g
But we all know that nothing in this game will ever come close to being as incomprehensibly awful as THATS RIGHT *ThE AnGlEr FiSh*
Even volatiles quake in their non-existent infected boots.
I don't understand. What is this reference?
Roanoke REALLY hates the angler fish @@justhere4637

Must be new.
Roanoke vs Anglerfish is a classic.
Who can stop him? When will his reign of terror end?! That cruel and wicked villain, ThE aNgLeR fIsH! DUN DUN DUN
6:34 love that the alien ship has "Not lost, just exploring" and a license plate
xD
that really does push the whole "just there for fun" theory.
@@mrsamaritan6881it is just for fun lol i dont think its meant to be serious
The more reasonable origin would be the fake olympics being held in Harran the year of the game’s setting. ‘The Global Athletics Games’ was set to take place in the city which meant bringing people from all over the world to Harran. In fact, one of the quarantine zones in Old Town is a hotel and it is suggested that it was ground zero for the infection
he also says children are immune and they most certainly are not given the screamers in DL1
@Shizn0id this video is about the evolved virus from the second game not the hk virus from 1 so yes in the case of DYING LIGHT 2 there is no infected children
@@scvrlett18 absence of proof isn't the proof of absence, they barely got away with screamers in dl1, killing kids causes problems for devs and publishers trying to release a game.
@liamzakhaev the world premiere of dead island begs to differ. It's still recognized as one of the best trailers to date and it's whole premise was a child dying and eating her family
Actually, you are all absolutely right. that trailer is one of the best trailers and it does show a young ling doing some very horrible things. what the other guys are talking about is the legal teams for these developer groups. Unfortunately, to handle the amount of money and employees that are required to create a game also entails creating a company. Companies can be held liable for things that single individuals cannot. That being said, if you read it the legal team with people who didn't care, there is a good chance that any lawsuits about the presentation of young death That the sensitive ones are worried about Would simply fall through as it is a fictitious setting. We do not have a real horran virus, And therefore any lawsuits attempting to attack a company that includes descriptions of violence such as the dying light team Would simply be pointless.
TLDR, Game companies try to avoid liability, that is what impacts the game. There should absolutely be dead pre-adults. But game companies are chicken.
I know I might sound like a nerd, but in the first Dying Light, there were zombie children that would scream, like a child version of the howler in Dying Light 2.
I was thinking the same thing
Dam I didn't even think of that, good on ya
@@Schmage I just finished Dying Light 1 a few months ago, so that was on my mind when Roanoke mentioned kids and their immunity to THV
@@tirefishthere are nightmare fuel baby zombies in Dying Light 1
i remember them too, annoying lil shits
So our immune system acts on "Batman with infinite prep-time" logic.
Except parasites
The immune system is literally me, running through scenarios in my head of things that will probably never happen. "What if I'm in a helicopter and it crashes?" "What if I'm on a bus that can't go under 60mph or it'll explode..."
@Tonbizzle I bet kobe thought that too before going down
you immune system can theoretically counter any disease, it just takes too long to find the right strat
@@Tonbizzle “what if my car brakes stop working and I drive into the railing of a bridge and fall into a river below” yeah yeahhh silly stuff like that
"but that's just a theory. A GA-" *starts sobbing*
Damn, it has been a day...
My 13yo daughter came downstairs absolutely bawling bc matpat was retiring🙄
That is only a hypothesis not a theory.
@@randallbesch2424 don't start on that rabbit hole.
HOWEVER, where the line is crossed on this?
This may very well be a theory at this point.
This channel has taught me many things.
1.) the most Chad science of Microbiology
C.) nobody likes angler fish
5.) nobody wants rabies
Z.) cancer is a punk
Glorious
And Stay strapped or get clapped
I like angler fish.
My research into how to make an angler fish with rabies has mysteriously vanished. But trust me this will no stop me from accomplishing my goal.
underrated comment
Going to need a water strap to clap it once it's accomplished...
Have you considered neutron based nuclear weapons?
I may be mistaken but I don't think Volatiles are a "natural" progression in the mutation phases. What I mean is that I belive they are created in a means of conversion rather than being a side path from viral to biter. There was a mission in The Following where we find a missing man who was taken by the infected and brought into the hive and was screaming and begging for us to kill him (He was already in Volatile form). I think that Volatiles purposely drag certain people away based on unknown specifications to be converted or alternatively used as fuel for the feeding grounds. Would explain why the Volatile nests exist and why we see Volatiles seemingly being "born" from the still flesh strapped down victims mid transformation. Might be something worth looking into. Honestly if this is true (Which I think it is) then this gives far more horror to the volatiles considering that they have the intelligence- or in the very least smart instinct to choose who to kill vs who to spare only for conversion. I imagine this is what the Alpha/Darker Volatiles would be in charge of given their ability to not be fooled by the gore camo and increased strength and recognition.
I was just thinking about that mission myself and I'm definitely in the "Volatiles are conversions" camp.
This would make a lot of sense tbh
Mostly a solid theory, however i believe it was established that the canon ending is where you disarm the nuke and escape Harran and it shows you turned into a volatile. Besides that the theory makes a lot of sense. Since the virus is bloodborne and you spend a lot of time shooting and clearing the nests, maybe volatiles are more like an origin point and the result of the mutations depends on individual factors
@@nickvanzwaemen4907 I remember thinking the world would've been fine if Crane just accepted the Mothers path. Turns out she was right the whole time lol.
@@nickvanzwaemen4907 Huh? I never mentioned any of the endings in my message. All I talked about regarding The Following was that one specific side quest- not the main story or endings.
Dying Light is such an awesome game thanks for analyzing it
The first one is goated
The second is if Ea and Ubisoft made parkour a game with zombies instead of zombie game with parkour
@@biggiraccyeah i wish techland focused more on bridging the two games together
@@biggiracc I mean 2 wasn't bad, it was mid for sure and 1 was great in comparison but I don't feel like I wasted my money when I played 2
@@jimbothegymbro7086exactly this, so many were quick to bash DL2, but it wasn't a bad game. It was far from perfect of course, but it was fun to play for what it was.
Honestly it wouldn’t be surprised that this virus would be alien in origins, since some of the infected types kinda do look like they’re being forcefully changed to resemble something less than human.🤔🐱
I am pretty sure it is explained to me a military created bioweapon
@@AwholePieMadeForYou yeah but what about that one whacky side mission with the meteor? checkmate fed boy it's aliens
this is a joke I hope you laughed
@@jimbothegymbro7086 I thought you said femboy and I was about to be so confused. Thank God you said fed boy. I had a great laugh lol
Dying light 3 revenge of the femboys
@@AwholePieMadeForYouin Dl1 it's a bioweapon that the GRE created to sell on the black market.
Before I started watching this channel, I had no idea how much thought games like this put into their illnesses, diseases and anatomy. It's really quite impressive and adds more appreciation for the games that do their homework.
Because of how “tachyon” is used in sci fi settings, I just figured the virus had a time travel aspect and the children just didn’t exist at the moment for the virus to reach them.
video game disease coverage is some of my favorite content from you
You know, it's quite interesting how DL2:SH clarified the evolution of the Infected. Everyone is destined to at first become a Viral and then a Volatile so long as they minimize exposure to UV radiation, quite the difference from how you originally theorized Volatiles come about. Meanwhile, Walkers come about due to prolonged exposure to UV radiation weakening Virals, whereas special chemical exposure creates the other Infected sub-types.
While the modified virus could very well be an alien inside job, I still find it hard to believe the original outbreak was caused by crashed alien ship. Like if it was planned why crash the ship, and if it was an accident what are the chances that the virus would be able to cross species that are not even from the same planet? But anyway, nice video and I’m once again asking if you can look into the Moonscorching from the second Fear and Hunger game.
I mean, in the end it is a videogame mate
I mean it worked in John Carpenter’s The Thing…
I think what was on the ship was just a mutagen that they ended up using on rabies and some other disease which caused it to mutate drastically. That's why it causes the virus to progress so much and change when infected people come into contact with that blue stuff (crane, the mother). The gen mod was just a diluted version of both that GRE played with and causes further mutations
The release of the virus in dying light 2 was complete accident and the GRE tried immediate action to contain the outbreak the virus broke out of Level 4 GRE containment as the outbreak went on it was said that the GRE had came up with a new compound called THV GenMod that could destroy infected cells that seems like a lot of research into somthing to stop a apocalypse they started
@@oroboros88its just a fun easter egg, its not alien
I wonder if the cytokine response originated to save the other people in the family, back when we were dwelling in caves. Kind of jumping on the grenade to save everyone else type of deal.
Ive honestly been listening to Roanoke all week. This mans voice is in my nightmares.
Now I’m imagining Roanoke narrating like Steve Irwin.
“Rabid Angler fish” -Roanke
Now we need Roanoke to do a countdown from 10 to 1. No particular reason ofc
Came here for alien, left with microbiology lesson.
Welcome to the club, just wait til you get the lessons you missed from your parents.
There was a whole quest in DL1 that said the virus came from aliens. I guess he wasn't crazy after all.
there is no canonical source for the original Harran virus at the moment,
some say it came from the mole mans (volatile like creatures that some conspiracy dudes were talked about during the early stages of the outbreak but that could have just been actual volatiles and the infection is older that it first appeared),
some say it was a leak from a lab or a B.O.W test gone too right other say it was aliens or meteor spores from space,
in DL 2 the GRE tried to make a B.O.W from the original H-Virus by making it bypass the old vacine and ended up destroying the world in the prosses.
damn my reply was hidden by youpoop
Neat one of the things I missed was the amount of people that simply died I for some reason thought there were billions of infected which is terrifying
I assumed the same. When the game referred to then as dead, I assumed that implied turned as well.
please do a video on vampyr game on how the pure vampires blood becomes weaker when infecting more people they turn into Skals. also how skals feeding ways completely changing to where they can feed of peoples flesh instead of the purer vampires can only drink blood. it would also be interesting to know how there are different branches of the vampire blood like how one branch makes people look like werewolfs
The Vm infection has changed over time.
So excited to see new content. You do great work keep it up
I thank you for your videos. It makes me feel better thinking I'm learning stuff from watching videos about video games and movies.
Love this franchise! Nice one for covering it brother!
@roanokegaming i wait for your videos on this and roanoke tales, and live the content man! Keep it up
However, in the old town in Dying Light 1, there were "Screamers" kids and babies that were infected. In Dying Light 2, there are notes to be found about the mutation of the screamer from Haran but no mention of the name and what they look like. Perhaps Dying Light 3 with Spike at the forefront.
Appreciate these Roanoke - always a pleasure to lend an ear/eye to.
I love your videos! Keep it up my brother
As a fan of both this channel and Final Fantasy VII, I feel compelled to ask: any chance we might get a rundown on Jenova cells and their effects on people injected with them? Or perhaps a video simply about the (admittedly grotesque) anatomy of Jenova herself?
Man, the TF2 music playing in the background really brought back some memories.
yea, this is a good channel
Your the goat 🎉🎉🎉 man mad love an respect, thank you for all your content an advise 🙏
you and curious archive have given me anxity! keep it up guys!
suscarb
Fun video, great watch! Feels incomplete though in regards to DL2, would love to see your take on THV Genmod and the Inhibitors to see what theories you could come up with for that!
@RoanokeGaming I've been dying to see you explain this particular game. Thank you so much.
Awesome video dude! I hope the next one is for the tardigrade monster from harbinger down!
Wow, A lot of work went into this. That is some quality stuff right there.
How don't you have a million subscribers by now?! Enjoy your content bro. Great work!
Great episode, I really like the dying light games. Hope to see more videos on the infected variations and even super humans seen in dying light 2. Take care!
Nice wanted to see this game, like how you talked about the first dying light
In dying light there is a mission about a guy who thinks it's from space and makes you search a meteorite that landed in old Town that glows under uv saying the GRE were all over it when it crashed or the local authorities were I don't remember but same with the ship it hints that it is from space and just like volatiles has a reaction to uv light from the sun
I thought the guy was supposed to be a crackpot, considering the gun you get is useless.
I'd love to see you do a video on the Mimics from Edge of Tomorrow. Your take on their alien biology would be fascinating.
love, love, love your content, keep it up my dude.
Holy shit my favorite franchise I love you Roanoke
Your awesome Roanoke I always look forward to your videos and I was curious do you still stream?
Excellent video Roanoke! I love your science heavy videos. 😊
Always enjoy your videos dude
Finally, I've been waiting for the day this video came out for ages now
Great video as always!
So excited to see one of my favorite youtubers delve into one of my favorite games 👍🏼
I love listening to the virology stuff in your vids. Keep it up
13:45 its the other way around. people avoid people only if they feel sick and not because of the intrest of others
It's literally what he said. People avoid people when sick. Which is ultimately for the interest of others...
nah. people stay at home because fever destroys their proteins. and not to not infect other with their annoying cough...@@thedoomlord8618
I don't know if you already covered this but it could increase your love with anglerfish if you think about it, what do you think about the variant of the T virus from Resident Evil that was banned from the black market because it can infect the water and fish so half the world would be infected if it was released, even humans can be infected, it transforms fish into monsters so imagine a anglerfish infected with the Abyss
all T virus variants are water born and can infect massive bodies of water dude... what are you talking about? if you are talking about the T-Abyss it was made with a mutagenic deep sea virus as it base and had it effects boosted by combining it with T virus samples later on.
Imagine an infected orca, a dolphin maybe? Those things are totally murderous normally.
was my first reply hidden by youtube?
well i think RUclips ate my first comment so I'm gonna paraphrase to avoid the "Stalin bots" the misspelling your about to see is intentional (i am sorry),
all forms of the t-birus are water born and capavle if invecting large bodies of water! what are you on about? are utalking about the t-avyss? cause that one was made wit a mutag enic deep sea cIrus as base and combined wit the t-Birus later on for extra uummmppphhh!!!
was my second reply eaten too?
I've learned a startling amount from this channel and I'm 100% for that.
I'm not sure if you do SCPs anymore, but I'd love to hear about SCP 3288. An off shoot of humanity that inbreeds and the negative effects that come with inbreeding are reversed into positive ones.
It'd probably be better as a short though. It's incredibly not ad friendly if you get into details
Great vid and game thanks. I also remember a side quest about finding chunks of meteor that might have transported the infection
Love your videos, keep it up. Also you should do the Days Gone virus.
"Children are immune!"
*The baby screechers in Dying Light 1* :]
Yes Roanoke covering Dying Light 2! Exciting :D
See, with all that u said in this video, I'm curious to hear ur take on Adian and Walts' unique infection powers and how they maintained their consciousness long after initial infection
There's probably no scientifically reasonable explanation to it, it's rather an ingame thing to spice things up. A regular disease, even a zombie disease, could not really turn you into a "super human", since that defies most if not all normal biology.
Not every part of these games is 100% scientifically plausible. Parts of em are just gameplay to make things more interesting.
You are so smart! I learn n enjoy the vids.
Good to hear about how it started in the background as I hunt Volatiles for upgrading my weapons [New Game+].
Strangely enough, I feel like dodging RUclips’s naughty words has made you more unique to listen to. No one on RUclips talks quite like you lol it’s cool
Hey man I’m a huge fan of your channel and videos. A movie I recommend is the brotherhood of the wolf. It has a monster that is perfect for a break down. Either way your videos rock keep it up
I love these videos man
Roanoke this is Perfect Timing I just started giving this game a second go amd enjoying it. 😂
i was waiting for this episode so long
Are we forgetting that children were zombies too in dying light? I vividly remember dropkicking a screaming child
Any chance you'd cover the Last stand (flash games and also standalone 5th game) virus?
A new rogue like game was released a few years ago but most of the lore hasn't been documented, having finushed the game myself it shows new insight about the virus but still pretty vague.
that could be good yes
I've been waiting for this time to come
Oh Roanoke covering my favorite game. my day is better
"How do trees know how to make a flower mimic a bird" I can't believe he just dropped that philosophical bomb shell and just ran away.
this is really good , thx for this
Hell yeah, I’ve been waiting for this for a year or two now!
Yippee!!!
I just can't get the background guitar out of my head, thinking that it's the song Engineer play during his trailer for TF2
Petition for you to cover the karah in subnautica
Oh bro what, so hype youre covering this IP
Loved this video! Roanoke you had mentioned something along the lines of "How does rabies know to travel through saliva" and "how does a tree know to make flowers which mimic the appearance of a bird to ward off predatory insects". VERY thought provoking concept, personally I look at it not as the organisms are consciously making adaptations but rather that they are subjected to selection pressure over the course of millions.....and millions of years. In the example of the tree, millions of years ago its flowers probably didn't look anything like a bird. But over many years mutations occur with the beneficial ones being passed on, in this case ones which warded off insects. Maybe it took 1 million years for the flower to start having the shape of a bird and another 1 million years for it to have the colors of a bird. So in a nutshell what I am saying is that the flowers didn't look like birds to start out but were molded into a bird like appearance by selection pressure over many years.
I literally JUST started playing through this again last night, funny coincidence. Keep up the good work Roanoke 😄
Bro samee
Thanks man. Awesome video 👍🏻

The balance between exposure and non-exposure is tedious, because if we overly-prevent exposure we'll end up as immunocompromised as the quarians of Mass Effect. It ultimately harms the immune system more than helps anyone, so everything in moderation.
I been waiting for this video for a long time
No one explains game lore no other than Roanoke, but mostly MatPat is still unbeatable
I love when ya cover dying light, still waiting on the bolter tho, its probably the most unique variant of infected seeing as how it runs away, which is odd for rabies
I have always pondered if the goal of a virus is to spread and rise in numbers of itself wouldn’t it be more beneficial to not kill the species that it needs to survive. I mean eventually it could adapt to a zoonotic virus but how likely is that and what would have to happen for that to be successful?
Viruses are incredibly interesting I always wanted to specialize in them. Life can change plans in an instant. At least I have channels like yours to feed my curiosity. I would love any reading recommendations you might have on the subject.
Didn't expect this video to happen, but i'm extremely happy it did
been waiting a while for you to do dying light !!!
Lmfao ChubbyEmu is the GOAT for [Insert Anxiety Disorder Aforementioned] x'DD The Gas Station Sushi episode was the first one I saw for his channel and it definitely got the anxiety going, but spurred the need to know more. which is exactly what your INCREDIBLE scientific deductions and hyper realistic observations do every time I watch your videos!^^ Also, the way you break down viruses, infections, diseases, etcetera and how in depth you are without losing the attention of people whom aren't as knowledgeable about the medical jargon is inspiring!^^^ Woo woo!^^ 🎉
My dad was part of the crew that were monitoring the lion fish outbreak
it was the plain old military industrial complex deciding to make a biological weapon that backfired on them hard
More science, more Roanoke? Hell yeah, brother
I was actually gonna ask you to do this but forgot, glad you did it anyways lmao
2:34 I definitely understood all of that and everything definitely entered my mind
Man, there's a video or study done on elephants where the older males were "removed", and all the young males went essentially mad
Dying light 2 was such a cockup.
Like nothing of the trailers came to pass.
+Roanoke Gaming - I have a feeling you'll enjoy the movie Mayhem. It's about a virus that induces murderous impulses within people while retaining their memories and their understanding of social hierarchy. For instance, if you are infected, you'll probably curb-stomp the guy who backstabbed you for a promotion, but you wouldn't attack the friendly barista who always remembers how you like your coffee. Interesting, to say the least!
Yay Roanoke. Dying Light 1 is one of the best games ever made.
