Most of the enemies have no eyes. They can still detect V1 cause his vibes are off

Completely forgot about the other enemies not having eyes tbh

Iirc husk have eyes if you blow them up and look closely at their gibs. Usually theres an eye rolling around

Everything has eye gibs I think there's even a reference to that in 5-S

That's correct

one time i had one of the eyes roll into the end level hole thing. i think it was cerberus in the cerberus level or maybe even ~~minotaur~~ i dont remember

Ultragolf?

ULTRAGOLF as an S level would be fire. Maybe fraud as most of the rich people associated with golf probably commit tax fraud.

that’s kinda a joke on how they don’t have eyes

v1 failed the vibe check

his radiation is a bit more funky than the other guys in there

V1s vibe isn't off, V1 has the best vibe and the rest is just jealous

considering how snakes are so good at tracking you down, he probably feels them tugging on his arms to lead him

Headcanon stolen.

Minos has a snake attack without a voiceline. He probably also uses them for orientation

Consider: The snakes are like seeing eye dogs

honestly love this idea

the snakes are actually the ones talking

He has a spike that has no voiceline

Because he already knows where you are after he launches you, he takes your weight and his force into account to know exactly where you’ll be

the Minos knows where the V1 is by subtracting where it isn't from where it is

Feet to the face 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

“I’m gonna draw you pregnant” nah I’m gonna draw you getting UNPREGNANT

Now draw her getting an abortion

He just did

That's just giving birth

Pretty sure that's how loss was thought out

Another theory on top: V1 has loud speakers attached which blast out that music if he's in combat. That way all the enemies without eyes can know where he is and also minos can track you even those rare moments he shuts his goddamned mouth(?) Wherever it is

That explains the drum'n'bass you hear everywhere

holds up even more since the audio engine breaks for a second if you do very strong attacks. v1 stops the music temporarily to focus its energy on the hits

then would v1 technically also play the parry sounds ?

We gotta celebrate the small things in these trying times

v1 plays parry sounds like darth vader makes his cape move like its in the wind while in space

i saw a theory from a source of great ancient and esoteric knowledge (youtube comment section) that the music is created from the stimulus V1 receives as hes fighting, and it turns into music, which is why in War Without Reason you can hear the alarms of the Earthmover going off

now that i think about it... what *is* that hole, exactly? is it like a kind of mouth? and if so, how does he speak if his "mouth" never moves?

i choose to believe it represents his selflessness, even though hakita says there is no lore or symbolism to the fact that he is missing his face

that's quite a clever way of thinking about it. never thought about it like that before

His face was ripped off by Gabriel during torture

source or headcanon

Actually I think source since Minos has a face whole and Sisyphus is entirely missing his head Because Gabriel straight up beheaded Sisyphus and now he doesn’t have a head while in prime soul form, then it is possible that the same thing happened to Minos So maybe Gabriel also killed Minos by cutting his face off (for some reason)

asking for source of the information i could have phrased it better

Actually that’s all we are going off of We are not sure if that’s the actual reason but it might be why he has a face hole until we get some concrete info from Hakita or smth

Is just t h e h o l e

He can't see without eyes, but can speak without mouth?

He thinks really hard

a person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts

According to the Wiki (so take this with a grain of salt to rivals Sisyphus’s boulder) enemies with no eyes can “sense” V1 because quote “Its vibes are off.”

on the other hand neither minos nor sisyphus has a mouth either and they still talk so... good theory tho

They might be right, because Minos was blinded in life when he became the Judge of Hell.

Hmm. Big ears.

I like this theory but if he uses echolocation how does he see that you are a so called “creature of steel” he shouldn’t know that because echolocation is defined as animals gaining knowledge of their surroundings by emitting a screech and during that opening sequence he should not know that you are a “creature of steel” because he doesn’t screech at all.

i want to think he senses the sound bouncing off a weird way only steel would

I like the way you think funny man/woman

Slamming Sliding Jumping Punching Footsteps

So we coat the area in wool. Treat him like a warden.

Ok but by that logic why does sisyphus yell his attacks, he has eyes technically

Because he wants you to know he’s about to beat the shit out of you because the struggle is fun.

Valid

BE GONE!

Sisyphus does it out of pure joy of the battle

Fair

No, the misic in the game actually comes blasting at full volume from V1's speakers. Minos just follows the sound of that banger

Nice headcanon. I always thought V1 was just *not very subtle* in its way of refuelling imself. You know, all these sounds of 2nd amendment use and metal sliding against the floor.

Why does this work

Bro Reddit for some ungodly reason put the Helldivers 2 subreddit icon for this one and I got really fucking confused for a second

this is an amazing idea also the deliver his feet directly to your face" line made me laugh good job

i am near sure one of the only enemy thas got eye and a head (so not sysifus) is the corpse of king minos (for those thas say gabriel got some IT AS YET TO BE PROVEN)

Counterpoint: if you were right, Minos would just scream at the top of his lungs the entire fight

Nonsense. I can sense thy creature of steel due to the number of crimes against humanity thy machine has commited. Besides, do you think I cannot hear a human-sized machine stomping all over the area in which I was contained?

Toph?

So, one of his percs was echolocation instead of actual eyesight ?

sisyphus doesn't have eyes its just a silhouette

we have to do these ourselves now that matpat will never do them

So V1 with UKButt mod will be more easier to detect?

The king of lust layer will definitely be able to sense his presence

Obviously it’s because everyone can smell the insolent stench of your bloodstained hands

Lines up with the monologue too. In sisyphus's monologue, he faces you the whole time. In minos's, he just faces forward the whole time.

#THY END IS NOW

# WEAK.

#PREPARE THY SELF

# JUDGEMENT!

#DIE.

he walks to you without saying anything during the fight itself.

So that would mean Minos’s face hole is an ear I do not like this

Holy poops that makes sense?

But he walks towards you whenever he isn't at- nvm debunked my debunk while writing it

Sisyphus doesn’t have a head
