Remnant: From The Ashes is a new action-packed RPG adventure by Gunfire Games where you kill grotesque bosses with shotguns and roll around a lot while traversing through different dimensions!
Though the game is still being watched and updated by its developers and there is plenty to enjoy within it, some questions were left unanswered even after finishing it completely and reading all the journals! There was so much left unsaid! Our questions are unanswered! We gotta know!
10 What’s Up With Butterfly Lady?
The Elf Queen in Corsus seems to be some very important figure among a group called the Iskal where everyone is one with the other. The Elf Queen will ask you to join them, as well as asking you to go against the Undying King.
The thing is, whether you go against her or for her regarding the guardian’s heart - she doesn’t really retaliate strongly. She doesn’t immediately want to kill you for not getting her what she wants (unlike some) and even if you’re interested in joining the Iskal that conversation doesn’t go far. Who is the Elf Queen really? What are the Iskal and is she passive or planning something?
9 Who Was The Dreamer?
When we find Founder Ford, he tells us this dreamer’s name was Clawbone and that he was Harsgaards dreamer gone wrong. The root of the problem if you will, all along sitting beneath our sanctum.
But who was Clawbone? Who was Harsgaard? Even when trying to ask Founder Ford, he doesn’t give you a ton to work with in regards to how this all happened and why. Why is Clawbone trapped in some mirror in a dark version of Ward 17 which somehow when you leave brings you to the atoll island? Questions, questions.
8 What Are The Dream Experiments?
Back in Ward 13, down some dirty stairs, we uncover something strange of the past. People used to do experiments on “dreamers” in the ward by connecting them to… Guardians? What are dreamers really and why were people trying to experiment with their “dreaming”?
If you read the terminals, it sounds like more than just dreaming and actually just traveling to different places while your body stays put. Why did the experimenters only attach dreamers to guardians? Did the dreamers agree to these experiments? Is the existence of dreamers common? What’s going on!
7 Is Wallace At Ward 13 Gonna Be Okay?
We briefly met this young boy’s brother before being rescued and taken into Ward 13. The boy Wallace tells us he struggles to cope with the loss of his brother and only family member, while also struggling with something else…
Wallace confides in us that he is having strange, scary dreams that seem all too real and that he can see things happen before they happen. When we discover dreamers and dreamer experiments, we can deduct that Wallace may in fact be a dreamer himself. Is this dangerous for us? For him? Or is this an advantage? Do people in the ward know about dreamers?
6 Is The Root Mother Related To Commander Ford?
If you have been keeping up with the journal entries found throughout the world and connected some dots, it would seem that Commander Ford’s family has close ties to that of the Root. Various journal entries speak of Commander Ford’s grandparents and parents trying to survive the Root and maybe getting too close for comfort.
Different journals tell of Evelyn Ford fighting with the Root inside her. Is the Root Mother no longer the body the Root took over? Will she gain her person and her memories back? Back in Ward 13 you can even hear Ellen Ford mention that the Root Mother walks about as if she once knew the place. Open your eyes Ford! That’s your grandmother!
5 What’s Up With The Guardians?
When we first jump into the world and make our way to the Undying King, we then get an understanding that each world, realm, or whatever you want to call them has a guardian protecting it. Some have lost their guardian, even. But what are the guardians?
What are they protecting the worlds from? The Root? Or was their purpose something greater before the Root showed up? What is Earth’s guardian? Or who, rather.
4 How Many Other Worlds Are There?
In the entirety of Remnant: From The Ashes we get to explore five different worlds, including our own, Earth. But the real question is, how many different worlds actually are there?
Are these located at different planets in space or different realms on different planes of existence? How long have people been able to travel through different lands? Because these alien races seem unphased at best.
3 Where Did Founder Ford Go?
We have been following Founder Ford’s tracks for some time, learning what he’s been trying to do to stop the root and trying to find his whereabouts. Well, we do end up finding him. Just for him to say, “I don’t know what I was doing, neither do you, but good luck and I shan’t follow you!”
He stays put! He has a family he abandoned that still exists and he doesn’t want to go back home at all. A stranger walks up to him, tells him they are continuing his work and met his daughter, and he doesn’t even bat an eye. Your daughter, man! Where is he going to go now? And why can’t we tell Commander Ford that we met her father and we know who the Root Mother really is, or who she used to be!
2 Who Are We?
Big question time here. Who even are we? We are introduced being lost at sea looking for answers about the root and a narrator speaks as if we are the chosen one.
Since when did we sign up to be the chosen one!? Jokes aside, we don’t really know much about our own character, where we came from, what our motive even is and why we should even be trying to stop a Root infestation single-handedly.
1 Who Is The Keeper Of The Labyrinth?
The Keeper of The Labyrinth. Some supposed higher being, higher than all other alien races we have met or will ever meet. This dude apparently knows everything there could ever be to know, past or present, and just sits there on that chair. Does he even have eyes!?
So he controls the tower in which ultimate travel between worlds can be done, even though dreamers can do that while sitting comfy at home, and he knows the worlds are in danger from the Root. Hm. Interesting indeed. What’s his deal!?
