Weaker-minded or unintelligent people can't understand those symbols they just get bat-s h i t crazy from the unsettling mind control effects and they just want to kill themselves and everybody around thus providing the Marker with fresh dead flesh to work with later :) And what does a bat-s h i t crazy madman with kill intents and horribly nagging visions do? Well, they poke the eyes out, they strip the flesh, they bruise themselves and others in the most horrible fashion, and they draw the symbols from their strained minds everywhere with the gore! So, the longer people are in the presence of the signal, the more they feel the onset of the mind-control headaches, seeing apparitions of long-gone people, nasty feeling hallucinations in general, and also see these symbols burning in their minds. Why? That's for another spoiler, if you'd care. But before that happens, the Marker wants those intelligent beings to build another Marker (or even more) and spread it throughout the universe. It mind-controls and alters DNA so that that life becomes necromorphic. ![]() The Marker sends this signal as soon as it is discovered by intelligent life. Seeing the symbols in one's head is sort of an attempt by the Marker to present a communication matrix of its signal and one's own language. It's probably no news to you that the symbols are embedded all over the Marker in the first place. It's been said in the book, it's guessable from the events in DS1, it's been hinted at several times in DS2, and straight-on explained again in DS3 in the logs of one of the scientists. I am explaining only the symbols and small part of the lore below: I totally understand.Īnyway, there's A LOT more to the whole necromorph, Markers, and Convergence thing than just the symbols. But you are definitely not stupid or something. ![]() It's really strange, considering what I like about the games are the stories, and even more so because the reasons are strewn all over the games, but well. ![]() I've played each DS like three times or more, and only after like half of these playthroughs and reading the book have I actually understood what the Necromorphs are all about. In what game do you find out the significant reason? Can you put the reason in spoiler tags and tell us here? I played all 3 OG games and the remake, but my memory doesn't last that long, lol. Those who mind RP would never touch it, and those who like more casual approach would have a QoL option. Actually, it would be a nice bit of a thoughtful approach from the remake devs if, say, a future patch presented a keyboard shorcut that would show the translation.
