Memetic Mutation / Warframe

• Greedy Milk. The community is still trying to figure out what it is. ^note When siding with Sargas Ruk during the Gradivus Dilemma, he would sometimes tell the player that they are going to crush the "greedy milk" from the Corpus skulls. They've apparently made enough of it for a brand name, and cereal.
• Clem, the Grineer fan character born from the Narmy Grineer's speech, was eventually put in the game in full! You can even do a weekly quest for him to get a Spectre of him, so now you can have your own Two-Grakata-wielding plucky little Tenno-wannabe Grineer defector tagging along on missions with you!
• SOON^TM — the official release date of any planned feature you're looking forward to. Eventually, the meme was given a Primed Version◊.
• Whenever new updates lead to Good Bad Bugs or Artificial Stupidity, expect the game's Perpetual Beta status to be cited as the cause. IT'S BETA◊
• The sheer volume of customization present has given rise to the Fan Nickname "Fashion Frame." Since the majority can only be gotten with premium currency (which means, unless you wanna spend real money, farming for, and selling, high-end loot for the premium cash to buy them), this has led to the common stance among vets that "Fashion Frame is the true endgame."
• "Growth. Profit. Grofit!" ^ExplanationSpoken by Frohd Bek during the Ambulas Reborn trailer. "Grofit" has since become common Tenno lingo for making a lot of money, whether through gameplay or inter-player trading.
• "You can't spell Rebecca without REEEEEEEEEE", thanks to Rebecca Ford, the community manager and VA for The Lotus, saying this during an official stream.
• In one of content creator Quiette Shy's videos, she declared an augment mod for a particular weapon to be about as useful as "tits on Vay Hek", ending the video with voice mashup of Vay Hek exclaiming, "Look, brothers! Tits! HAHAHAHA!". Vay Hek's voice actor has done a live rendition of the line.
• The exceedingly long speech (and the opening line, "Look at them") given by Corrupted Vor upon his appearance has become a frequent copypasta. The speech is made even made more ridiculous by the fact that he will often be slain within ten seconds of appearing, only to ramble on for another full minute after his death.
• "Ninjas farm free" or "Farmers play free" are statements that aren't new to Warframe's existing game mechanics that involves a lot of farming for specific builds that players would do on a regular basis. It doesn't help that the most primarily used items are referred to as various farm produce. For example, the Orokin Reactor/Catalysts are "potatoes", the Exilus Adapters are "tomatoes", and the Kuva are "chili peppers".
• Dablas, since you can make Atlas dab by making him face your camera when using Petrify.
• "We all lift together," the Solaris Catchphrase, has been used for all sorts of ridiculous contexts, like having Vay Hek◊ say it. On a more serious and heartwarming note, it has become the fandom's Catchphrase, usually when helping a new player who is struggling. We all lift together, Tenno. Also the song itself became fandom anthem due to this and its general meaning about endless hard work which players ironically refer to grinding, farming and all like this.
• Instance 69, a server instance of the new Fortuna region, which has been vigorously kept alive by players due to the obvious joke. It's been made an Ascended Meme, with DE hardcoding the game so that Fortuna 69 can never die due to being empty.
• "Just play Warframe, it's better and it's free."^explanationThe Catchphrase people use in critical discussions of other looter shooter games like Destiny 2 and Anthem.
• SHE WILL BE OUR MOMMY BY FORCE!^note With The Reveal that the Lotus/Natah might not actually genuinely love the Tenno, many outspoken fans are still trying to have her love them, even (jokingly) if it's by force
• Hydroid Prime's trailer. ^ExplanationHydroid's Prime Trailer was first announced in 2017, but suffered such intense Schedule Slip that it became Waframe's version of Valve Time. The meme ended up dying at Tennocon 2020, when DE finally posted the trailer as part of the main expo
• "POWDERS AND DYES! POWDERS AND DYES!" ^ExplanationThe Cetus marketplace has a dye merchant who loudly advertises his powders and dyes, which arrived at great risk from the Eurasian zone. He's located right next to Konzu, meaning that players will probably hear his single repetitive speech very often while choosing bounties. As such, he's considered quite annoying, especially since he's a non-interactable NPC whose powders and dyes can't even be purchased.
• New Quest: The Waverider ^ExplanationYareli's introductory quest, The Waverider, is considered to be That One Sidequest due to K-Drives being a Scrappy Mechanic, and the reward of Yareli herself didn't motivate players to go through with it due to her being seen as a Low-Tier Letdown before her rework in late 2022. As a result, many players refuse to complete it, causing its notification to be perpetually in the corner of their screens when they're in the Orbiter. When someone shares a screenshot with that notification visible, you can expect people to poke fun at them for it.
• Gemussy ^ExplanationThe red text announcing the release of the Citrine's Last Wish update said that the new content would "make your gemussy sparkle", referencing another meme involving adding the "-ussy" suffix to other words. The ridiculous wording, combined with the fact that Citrine's design does have some aspects that may be interpreted as yonic, led to the term being adopted to refer to the geode-themed Warframe.
• Among Vay Hek's wide assortment of scenery-devouring lines, the fans oddly attached to his "Why are these fools still breathing my air?" As such, and thanks to somebody splicing his lines with it, the fandom has accepted that Vay Hek is obsessed with breathing air and not letting anybody else, be it Tenno or Grineer, breathe it.
• Gaussposting ^ExplanationIn a similar vein to replacing anime memes with unrelated characters, Gauss ends up replacing the original subject, crafting hilarious non-sequituers.
  • Gauss Prime chase ^ExplanationSimilar to the Verbalase X Charlie meme, a common edit of Gauss Prime’s trailer is a loop of a POV shot of him running set to the same song
• Green Banshee ^Explanation A reddit user had a peculiar dream about finding a "Green Banshee" as a relic reward, which immediately took the subreddit by storm as everyone started going along with it and talking about finding/having Green Banshee as well. Not even one day later, the devs◊ got in on the joke on Devstream #179.
