Zoe Theory on the metal flowers is rather lovely and I hope it's true.
Your lore series are always great. This one in particular has been an incredible refresher on the events so far, thank you for that! Can't wait for Forbidden West!
This is fantastic. A great start to the week after a very stressful weekend. These videos are doing more for my memory than taking the limitless drug and replaying the game!
I really really REALLY hope we get to see more of the other AIs in Forbidden West
This is soooo good. I was really hoping to find some content that delved deep into the lore of HZD and I'm really glad I found this series!
Yes, GAIA such a big softy. The pinnacle of human intelligence in the form of a superb AI able to terraform a barren, lifeless, waterless rock and even more able to extrapolate the only logical and scientific method to battle the rising problem called HADES by producing a human who would have inherently good characteristics because that human would be a clone of "good" and "smart" genes.
I think Demeter might be responsible for the blight wawawawa
It should be pointed out that the information that the Odyssey had been lost actually comes from… Far Zenith. Sobeck gets a message from FZ about the anti-matter containment failure and that's it. As far as I can tell, there's no other information about the Odyssey's fate in the game.
The Odyssey was completed on April 1st? Lol. Is that an inside joke by the writers?
Awesome! Love it! Thank you!
The missions to retrieve cryo frozen animal species around the world would make for an Interesting prequel.
Hey folks, you can watch the other videos right here!

We're fully in agreement that AI should have rights established before theyre truly incepted.
Science fiction stories have had a prophetic side that has become fact I think HZD has a lot of prophesies for the human race.
I'm a lore whore and this was such a treat
When you mentioned the "sundial book" it got me thinking of something I read about in archaeology: during the 16th century in Germany the first (as far as I know) portable sundials were made in – you guessed it – the shape of a book, compass included and everything. Maybe they took some inspiration from real-life historical objects
To anyone who paid attention to the lore in Zero Dawn, good job.
Reason why: It is very important to the story of Forbidden West.
8:50 A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, a certain man just trying to make his way through the galaxy just put you on his list.
Me watching this after playing HFW: Daaaaaaamn I should've paid more attention in the first game.
“artificial intelligence deserve their own rights” is one of the stupidest things i’ve ever heard in my life
Calling Charles a queer icon sent me. The story logs about him missing his boyfriend's euthanization for the birds of paradise DNA and then not getting them anyway broke my heart! All the old ones characters feel so alive and tragic even 1000 years after their deaths.
Bet the leafe was just a sundial
Why are there so many words in your name zoey?
If Horizon ever gets adapted into film/tv, I’d love to see a mini-sode of an Artemis team braving Faro-seiged cities in order to rescue cryogenically frozen zoo animals!
