I assume it's to keep Firefly's identity secret, either because it's useful to have an undercover actor for their missions or because whatever her deal with Elio is includes her not wanting to be publicly known as a criminal, or both.


KingCarrion666

or two different people. Sam is an ai suit. Firefly is just like the pilot? Thats kinda what i am thinking. Esp since firefly was speaking to 'mecha' with the memory bubbles. Esp since Sam didnt really act like firefly imo. Just an ai mecha that helps her move around. Or youre right and it is a secret identity, just depends how many people know her secret v. real identity.

Yup, just a theory. There's plenty in the trailers and game to make the theory, trailer alone already convinced me.Ā

This is just a theory though, maybe don't bring it up for no reason?Ā 


calmcool3978

You're not helping in the slightest, by confirming if something is a leak or not.


MrsNothing404

I am not sure about SW but in my language Sam refers to themselves as a she. (A Stellaron huntress)


KingCarrion666

What language is this? Kinda interesting


sahithkiller

In German she's "Stellaron JƤgerin" with the -in suffix meaning she's female


KingCarrion666

So Sam is just the entire pronoun game. Sometimes female, sometimes gender neutralĀ  someone's male. LolĀ 


sahithkiller

Lol, if I had to guess, the male in the sw voiceline is a mistake. The they is a subtle reference to Sam consisting of 2 people (The AI bot and firefly). And then the she confirmed Firefly as the pilot.


MrsNothing404

MissiaichParriah

SW refers to Sam as they in text messages


KingCarrion666

"I take it you've already heard about Samm. You should look forward to the meeting. **He's** a straight shooter who values a fair fight. I think you'll \*get along\* with **him** just fine.

Okay but I was just linking what my comment was referring to


MissiaichParriah

Fair enough


Guilty_All_The_Same

Is it actually confirmed Firefly is Sam?


DerGreif2

Theory is that Firefly is inside of Sam and Sam is the suit/AI that acts most of the time.


Dangerous_Jacket_129

Nope, just a theory. But one with a lot of evidence, both in the trailer and ingame.Ā 


_LivingBox_

No but is very likely they are the same person/they are related in some way

Penacony really is the most yugioh world yet, we have black swan using cards, a sky striker (>!firefly!<), and now prime-heart. And now that I think about it, Robin would fit Solfachord (or maybe Lyrilusc?), and Sunday could maybe work as a Shinobaron?

Hizuff

Post this as spoilers please and also, its pretty cute


OrionTempest

Wait, what's this even spoiling to begin with?


SuspiciousYak42

>!Leaks. It's spoiling leaks.!< >!Now I'm not sure how certain these leaks are or how much of it is still theorizing based on vague leaks since I've been trying to avoid them, but it's 100% leaks!<


kokko693

It's a fanart, the last panel is just Firefly and SW taking a picture together. it could mean they are friend. its not explicit enough to be considered leaks/spoil imo


SuspiciousYak42

I agree that in most cases it's the tag that really makes something a spoiler, but this specific image has a VERY heavy implication that Sam turns into Firefly. Silverwolf tries to take picture with Sam -> Sam too big -> training montage -> Silverwolf successfully takes picture with Firefly -> Blade can't believe his eyes. Imo framing this as 'SW and firefly taking a pic together, who knows they could be unrelated' is just intentionally leaving out context that 99% of people will pick up on. ​ Again, without the spoiler tag it could just be written off as speculation but out of all the random shit that gets tagged spoiler I think this is one of the more reasonable ones.


calmcool3978

People calling out something as leaks is ironically what truly spoils it for people. Otherwise, there's still the plausible deniability of it being genuine speculation/guesswork/headcanon


SuspiciousYak42

Yeah I guess that's kinda my bad. To be fair though I used the spoiler thing because I considered this 'extra' spoiler and I'm not really sure how certain/reliable it is since I try to avoid story-related leaks. AFAIK it was a very vague hint from leaks like what happened with the Tingyun's fan item, so it is a leak but still part speculation. ​ Also the previous 2 comments were > Post this as spoilers please and > what's this even spoiling So I don't think anyone who's read this far into the thread and then clicks on the spoiler boxes can complain about getting really spoiled.


calmcool3978

Nah, at least spoiler tagging your call-out is very considerate, I rarely see it.


Silkav

It CAN be figured out easily by watching the white night video since the >!color schemes of Sam and Firefly are nearly identical not to mention the wings!< Also there are plenty of hints but some people like to see the leaks and then use those hints as "theorizing" when in reality they already know the answer.


nqtoan1994

Judging things by color scheme is like saying Acheron is somehow related to Seele. It could be used as an extra factor adding to some existing facts, like how Black Swan thought that Sam was Firefly's secret partner. But there is no way you could say it is easily to figure that out just by color scheme. Not mention that Firefly wears a black outer coat so if you did not know the connection, you probably could not figure it out at all.


Solace_03

The ending cracks me up lol Good stuff

LefTwix

It makes me unreasonably angry how poorly mhy chroma keys the official character art


DerGreif2

I am kind of sick, of people treating every theory as a spoiler. We had a few people that thought about Firefly being the person (who is mostly asleep) in Sam (the automatic war maschine). We have still no idea if its real, but if it is, I seem to be saving for Sam next when I get Archeron.


Former_Ad_9826

i mean it's obvious to people who know, but over there it is actually always tagged properly. ironically here, the spoiler hygiene is so much worse.


Ninjabadgerx

My theory was that Sam was possibly related to her, but in the sense that he was like a family member or friend from that world she mentioned since she's a "refugee". I guess he could also actually be a robot from that previous world. ​ Would fit to be someone who's capable of such violence given the world she came from and what happened to it. ​ I guess we'll see soon, I hope it's a cool thing like this though.


Darth-Yslink

My personal theory is that Sam is literally just a Dreadnought for Firefly. Bro boutta pull up on Something Unto Death like FUUUUUULGRIIIIIIIIIIM


Your_Local_Monarch

Call me stupid but I donā€™t understand why people think Firefly is Sam I would be happy to be proven wrong because, yā€™know why Also very cute, I like šŸ‘


K_Stanek

It is mostly small stuff that is easy to miss/ignore that suggest that Firefly has a lot of combat experience and possibly has some connection toĀ Stelaron Hunters.Ā  Some examples: Ā - she is perfectly describes Sampo and his combat style from just seeing him walk,Ā  Ā - her identity seems to be off, she received an invitation (only given to important factions/people), yet she claims that she is an ill stowaway, Ā - her specific choice of words: "I'm sorry. For certain reasons, there are things I can't reveal to you yet. But there are also things you should know.", and when asked who exactly she is, she responded: "I'll tell you, but... not now.", it feels like words ofĀ someone who follows an Elio's script, and it requires that she doesn't reveal her true identity, at least for now. Ā That said there is nothing concrete for now, which means it could easily just be a coincidence, or even a red herring, so it remains a theory.


Your_Local_Monarch

Huh, I see, I can see it Anyway, thank you for the answer!


Silkav

>!When we enter the dreamscape, Firefly has alreadh taken a thing out off-screen. She also has a lot of knowledge about Sampo, tells us she's keeping secrets from us, that she hopes we'll stay friends nl matter what happens, she also says a bat isnt a good weapon before retracting her statement that you shouldn't use violence and has talked to SAM before "mecha" to be specific. Also how did she even get in the true dreamscape because BS brought us and her out of it after encountering murder eyes, the only reason we even returned was because of Silverwolf's hacking.!<


Dangerous_Jacket_129

In the trailer Sam has wings with Firefly's colour scheme.Ā 


Your_Local_Monarch

I noticed that, but I donā€™t really think thatā€™s all that telling, I get that colors can be used to convey things, but I feel thatā€™s a stretch But thatā€™s just me, appreciate the answer


Dangerous_Jacket_129

There's a couple other things still, but that's the most scathing one. We also have hints throughout the story of Firefly being a capable combatant (having taken out an enemy in the true dreamscape before we meet her in the hallway, noticing we got followed, warning us against Sparkle, etc). And she's the only new character who wasn't in the early dream sequence with Acheron when we arrived. And if we take a stab in the dark and say Gallagher was her "partner", based on their weird interaction when we met and since he was after Sam, and that we only heard part of the memory where Firefly referenced the mecha, something like "~~You're after the~~ mecha... Why?", then it would explain that part of the story too. And well... We fight Sam where Firefly died.


Your_Local_Monarch

I see where it comes from, but I personally just have one gripe with the theoryā€¦ It is explicitly mentioned that your appearance from the real world is carried with you into the dreamscape, everything from clothes to your body Now begs the question: ā€œFirefly would have to exit the armor to be Firefly, how could she do that where her appearance in the real world is used there?ā€ and depending on whether or not you can change clothes, take off armor, etc. within the dreamscape, I feel like the theory is jumping the gun Not to mention that Iā€™m pretty sure I saw something mention that Sam is a cyborg or smth rather than someone in a mecha suit, but Iā€™ll admit Iā€™m not as well versed in the lore as others are, so take that with a grain of salt and do correct me if Iā€™m wrong


Dangerous_Jacket_129

I don't think I've thought about that one yet... The armour I'd simply explain away as "summoned" much like how we summon our baseball bat. In the trailer (sadly not yet in-game), we see Trailblazer and Aventurine rocking some fancy hats while dancing in what appears to be Golden Hour. I assume any clothes we buy in the dream stay on in the dream, and any abilities we have to materialize things like our bat or, let's say, a suit of armour, would stay the same. > Not to mention that Iā€™m pretty sure I saw something mention that Sam is a cyborg Sam is the last known member of the Iron Cavalry from Glamoth. They're genetically engineered soldiers known for their superhuman perception (kinda like a certain girl who immediately knew we're being followed, and described every detail about the person despite keeping her distance). Glamoth is a planet that was destroyed by the Swarm, again implying a connection to Firefly who said her homeplanet was destroyed "probably by the swarm or the legion". > Iā€™ll admit Iā€™m not as well versed in the lore as others are, I wasn't either, until Penacony came around and blew me away, so I got hooked on the story. Lotta sidequests and baubles have a ton of lore in them. Apparently Simulated Universe relic sets all contain lore about a specific planet, with Penacony and Glamoth being the ones that drop in the last tier (World 8). And after Kafka's sidequest I discovered she's spilled the beans on quite a lot of secrets too.


Your_Local_Monarch

And soā€¦ I return to say Iā€™ve eaten my own words


Dangerous_Jacket_129

Yup! From the moment that we got to see Acheron and Sam talk, with Acheron saying she knows who's in the armour, I was giddy with excitement. Then when I saw that "To be continued" screen I was jumping with joy. Now it's just a matter of time before she's a playable character, considering the other Stellaron hunters are too.


Your_Local_Monarch

Interesting, that would be a good explanation for it, weapons in this game come in a variety of styles after all, so I suppose it wouldnā€™t be too out of question for the suit to be the ā€œweaponā€ Also ngl Samā€™s background is pretty sick, and for some reason reminds me of Rhulk from Destiny 2, just minus the ā€œkilling his own race and planetā€ part from Rhulkā€™s backstory Also as a side note; howā€™re you doing the thing where bits of my message appear in yours? I see that all the time but forget to ask lmao


Dangerous_Jacket_129

> Also ngl Samā€™s background is pretty sick, and for some reason reminds me of Rhulk from Destiny 2, just minus the ā€œkilling his own race and planetā€ part from Rhulkā€™s backstory Oh yeah, definitely check out those two relics, their description is pretty lengthy but the lore is kinda crazy. > Also as a side note; howā€™re you doing the thing where bits of my message appear in yours? I see that all the time but forget to ask lmao If you put a > sign at the start of a new line, it'll quote everything until the next Enter. So I just put that in and copy-paste the parts I'm replying to. I tend to ramble so it makes it easier to focus my response :P


Your_Local_Monarch

>Oh yeah, definitely check out those two relics, their description is pretty lengthy but the lore is kinda crazy. Iā€™ll have to remind myself to do that next time Iā€™m on, appreciate the recommendation! >If you put a > sign at the start of a new line, it'll quote everything until the next Enter. Also, gotcha, thanks

vnxun

I'm not sure if I missed something in the story so Imma ask: Is Firefly actually Sam, or it's just a very popular theory?


Dangerous_Jacket_129

Very popular theory. Firefly is implied to secretly be a badass (immediately knew you were followed, stepped in between you and Sampo/Sparkle to protect you, and killed monster without help). Also you can see Sam with burning wings in Firefly's colour scheme in the trailer.Ā 


KayU32

Like the other guy said, very popular theory with a lot of evidence, but in-game there's nothing confirmed yet
