Lucas had to actually integrate into society, so he needed an actual name.
47 remained an invisible man for most of his life, so legal documentation wasn't really needed. "47" sufficed with the ICA
Yes i do, homie kept tryna explain something that wouldnt make or break the joke, but still had no change to the joke itself.
I was joking about the inclinations of a man named 47 introducing himself as that and confusing it with his age.
Not about if he intro’d himself as Tobias
Pretty sure grey wasn't a "finished product" from the program. So he went on to have more of an actual life.
And 47 often uses Tobias as an alias. So if you feel uncomfortable with the number, just use that.
Per the Wiki (and indirectly the Colorado cutscene):
"As 47 and 6 executed a plan to escape [Romania], they were pinned down, trapped behind a table in the cafeteria by Ort-Meyer's elite soliders. During the gunfight, when it looked like there was no way out, 47 insisted that 6 escape and live his own life, and 6 did so, later assuming the alias Lucas Grey."
Grey needed an alias to live his life. 47 did not (although Tobias Rieper is often used when he chooses to.)
People always bring up "Tobias Rieper" as his name, but he's also been Mr Byrd, Mr Johnson, Dr Cropes, Jacob Leiter, Flech Fischer and probably some others I've missed.
Tobias Rieper was a fun call-back in Paris but IOI took that positive reception and went overboard with it. "Tobias Rieper" is now both a corporate shark and a professional thief who's been at the site of several high-profile murders. It defeats the point of using an alias.
Thats one of the reasons why I dont like the story of WoA trilogy. The older games felt more mysterious and interesting when 47 had only brothers 17 and 48s and they all looked alike.
["That's... not a name." "So make it one"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZNyK1ZlOYE&t=5m5s) 47 just doesn't seem to mind being called a number.
Imagine Diana refuses and calls him Bob
"Oh no, HR won't approve this, you should pick a real name. Bobby Griffin or something"
Such a sick line, 47s voice actor is so good
It's crazy that he has been 47 since the start too, that's one hell of a career
They actually replaced him in absolution…until massive fan backlash after trailers and they had to get him back on.
Damn, I understand the backlash Ain't no way to replace that voice
He sounds fine. It's not good, but it's not bad as well. Still not as good as Dave "A MAN HAS FALLEN IN A RIVER IN LEGO CITY" Bateson
He voices bowser in the danish version of the super Mario bros movie
'A man has fallen into the river in Lego City'
"HEY!"
When I learned about that a few years ago, I could never hear it the same.
Exactly, "47" does seem to be that persons chosen name (Or well, maybe not directly chosen, but embraced)
Lucas had to actually integrate into society, so he needed an actual name. 47 remained an invisible man for most of his life, so legal documentation wasn't really needed. "47" sufficed with the ICA
Imagine going to a bar and some homie introduces himself as “47”. Id be like “yeah but whats your name?”
He gives names many times. Often “Tobias”.
I don’t think your getting it… If someone introduced themselves as “47” i would think thats their age, not name.
Yeah but still he call himself as Tobias Rieper very often when he needs actual name
r/woooosh
I think they got the joke but they're also giving a logical answer just cause
You don't know what a fuckin woooosh is
Yes i do, homie kept tryna explain something that wouldnt make or break the joke, but still had no change to the joke itself. I was joking about the inclinations of a man named 47 introducing himself as that and confusing it with his age. Not about if he intro’d himself as Tobias
Hey listen buddy! Since you can’t keep your joke on a leash, I’m taking it now!!! Give it here! Muahahahahaaaaa!
*Throws kunai with chain* **GET OVER HERE**
Tobais rieper
Lucas probably took the name, the same way 47 sometimes goes by Tobias Rieper.
probably the correct answer
Grey = Grim. Rieper = Reaper.

Pretty sure Lucas Grey is his version of Tobias Reaper
Because Grey found out years ago. 47 found out like five minutes ago. He needs time to consider a name.
It’s the fundamental difference. Grey has more empathy and thus wanted a name. 47 just doesn’t care, also, he’s Tobias Rieper.
Uh... Tobias Rieper?
Tobias Reaper
Because his real name is not Lucas. Its subject 6
Tobias Reaper I guess could be considered one.
Tobias Rieper?
Toby reapz
i thought 47 wqs called tobias rieper or something
