      also not to be a downer but I kinda hated book9. They'd have to heavily revise that book for adaption. While I loved 7 and 8, 9 imho pulled a game of thrones. All characters blend into the same behaviors, new characters that are incredibly hard to find likable or interesting ruin the story pacing with their constant extension of their viewpoints. And speaking of pacing, the story drags itself for 95% of the way all to end on the last 20 pages in a, in my opinion, huge anticlimax and leaves you very unsatisfied

      There are just probably too many freighters to be suspicious of every single one of them ?

    That new armor is quite impressive, and weird that the MCRN strike team didnt have it on their ships.
    The Roci could take a direct impact of a railgun round and only have mild damage, while the MCRN strike team all got taken out in one shot.
    Though the Roci was only hit in the back, and the strike team was hit head on, so could just be that.

    • @PaulDowning
      @PaulDowning 2 роки тому +17

      1-The strike force were not evading and driving in a straight line. Roci was doing the crazy wiggly-jiggly.
      2-Shot bounced at an angle. No small ship armor would withstand a direct hit like that from a big rail gun.
      3-The armor appeared to be relatively new and was supplied by UNN. MCRN strike was unilateral and not supported by Avasarala.

      MCRN were stone broke by that point, they were decomissioning, not building, ships. It took all their time and effort to get one Donnager class back to battle worthiness. UNN were struggling too, however they did managed to put protomolecule armour on the newest Nathan Hale class battleships, over the weapons and engines - these ships were high tech but significantly smaller than the Donnager and Truman class battleships.
      Roci on the other hand, by that point was the darling of the UNN, MCRN, *AND* Belters, and even though the factions were at peace with each other, they all wanted Holden and his ship to side with them, so at that point they would give them all they had - no civilian ship other than the Roci was ever issued light railguns, Goliath power armour suits, naval-grade torpedoes, or anything like that - and a little Corvette frigate would be an ideal testbed for them to put protomolecule armour on.....

    A beautiful landing! One of the few shows that has never once let me down. I do wish we'd gotten one or two shots of the main battle fleet in action, but I get why it narratively probably wouldn't make a lot of sense. That drifting burn was probably the most beautiful physics displays in the whole show... really hard to believe it's over.

      @Brswing 2 роки тому +9

      @@simulacrae Well, while I doubt that there is anything that's on the way that'll fill the gap between 6 and 7 in the way that was said above, they're already is a prequel in the works via the Telltale game, and what was being said is technically not out of the question.
      The difference between GoT and The Expanse is, the writing duo of James S.A. Corey (Ty and Daniel) were very involved in the production of the TV series and the TV show never overran the books. Game of Thrones mainly derailed because the showrunners had nothing to adapt and there was far less input in the show from George RR Martin. If The Expanse was to showcase a story set in between the time jump between 6 and 7, filling in the blanks is less of a problem than having to make things up as you go along, because at least you are connecting the dots and have boundaries. If there's anyone that could do it effectively, Ty and Daniel could certainly pull it off for sure.
      But I think that there's a concerted effort into figuring out which medium they're going to use for the final 3 books, if they haven't already figured that out yet. As stated before, there's already a Telltale game on the way, so it's pretty obvious that they're dipping their toes in the water and seeing how it is to work with game developers and so forth. But on another front, I'm of the opinion that they might look to animation to adapt the final three books. Animation certainly isn't cheap by any stretch of the imagination, but it does allow you certain freedoms when it comes to scope and scale, at least compared to live action and while there are certainly challenges when dealing with animated projects, imagine being able to see certain scenes that you weren't able to before because of budgetary restrictions. Imagine having more sequences not unlike CQB from S1E4, more space battles and more ability to truly customize environments to even more incredible degrees. Imagine being able to see something like the ending of S5 with the Battle at the Ring Gates between the MCRN/UN Joint Fleet, and seeing battles like that brought to life.
      If there's anything that I can criticize with the show, it's simply the limitations that come with needing to shoot on sets with real cameras and extensive green screen setups. They did a fantastic job with what they had and all of the challenges that they had to overcome, what with COVID protocols as well as budget issues, but animation could potentially solve some of those issues in the future potentially.

    I don't quite understand what happened in the first part of the battle. What happened to the heavy frigate? Did Drummer's group destroy it?
    And what did the UNN group do? Did they correctly identify the 'freighter' as the Pella and hit it? Why didn't the UNN help Drummer's group and the Roci by chasing down the Pella after that? I assume they were too far back or busy dealing with other Free Navy groups off screen?
    Also, did Bobby shut down all railguns at the same time, or just that one which was the only one able to hit the Roci?

    • @Debbiebabe69
      @Debbiebabe69 Рік тому +3

      The heavy frigate defeated all Drummer's torps with its PDCs and defensive torpedoes. Drummer only had cheap Belter torpedoes which were easy for Martian PDCs to kill.
      The heavy frigate was the ship that kamizaki'd the Belter ship that was trying to kamikazi the Pella, destroying both ships and damaging the Pella with frag.
      There were 3 Free Navy battlegroups - one engaging the Martians, one engaging the UNN, and one engaging the Belters. These fleets were millions of miles away from each other, so could never 'help out'. The ring gate and Roci were again several million miles away from any of the battles.
      Bobby torched the reactor that powered all the railguns on the station.

      @@iNeo1 thats one of the things that makes the series so good... little bits of detail most series would never dream of adding... like in the Zveya battle one of the Roci's pdcs jams, and in later episodes when you see the inside of the Roci there are still several panels showing the red light indicating the jammed pdc.....
      The only problem is this makes any mistakes more obvious as people pick through it with a fine toothed comb - for example in the Roci vs Pella battle they get the ammo counter on the railgun wrong, and in one episode they have characters of European and Oriental origin talking and one uses the term 'realtor', even though 'realtor' is a weird and peculiar term that is only relevant in one country on the world (USA) as it represents a trade association that only trades in that one country...

    I'm hoping for a sequel involving the Laconian Empire and other events that didn't or did occured in The Expanse show, off screen or wagly explained. Perhaps with the Roccinante shown as what they were by outsiders eyes, a sort of phantom they can't really tell if exists or not. Perhaps a brand new show telling us the store in a complete opposite of what we see in The Expanse. More belters, inners and mcrn.

    Great breakdown of the battle, I've watched this video at least 3 times since it came out. Please also take this as honest feedback, the constant switching between present simple and past simple when narrating is super distracting. Usually one picks one a narrative tense and sticks with it, it'll make your video seem a lot more professional than it already is with just a little checking. Again, great video and well done!
