From what I understand, Matoran and the other biomechanical races in the Matoran Universe can live/function easily for tens of thousands of years, possibly hundreds of thousands but I'm a bit fuzzy on the details. Kinda crazy to think about, but I always reasoned that if you're more than half mechanical, maybe that helps make monotony over the eons more palatable.

confused piraka Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 but why did it have to be so long it's just impossible to think about the toa doing everything in 2006-2008 in like 3 days and the matoran doing almost nothing for 80,000 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean by "baseline?" 1000 is the number of years between the events of the 2004 and 2001 storylines.

confused piraka Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 it might just be me but it always seems when the Turaga or simply wise character is remembering something, it's always like ''the {event} happened 2000 years ago'' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People in real life are often lazy in the same way, rounding up or down to the number that's easiest to say in casual conversation. Saying that something happened "two thousand years ago" is a lot quicker than saying it happened "one thousand, nine hundred and seventy-five years ago".
