Some of these cinematic show alternate story paths - like with the female scientist, you can choose to help her or to help the protoss. If you help her, you get the cutscene with her thanking Raynor. If you help the protoss, you get the cutscene with the scientist being infested and Raynor being forced to kill her. These deviations don't affect the ultimate outcome of the story, just something to keep in mind.
Interesting. Curious why the person who uploader these chose the scenes they chose 🤔
Yep yep 👍
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Don't quote me on this information, but I had heard that the name on the dog tag at 45:03 was the name of a Starcraft Tournament winner... Or the winner of a contest. One of the two.
I could be wrong, so if you want to fact check it that would be up to you. Either way I felt it worth mentioning.
@@rednova2212 To quote the wiki: "Michel Koiter (born 3 May 1984) was a Blizzard artist who died 18 March 2004 from heart failure at the age of 19. "
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames the 2 tosh scenes were also split storys
A piece of trivia / tearjerker: "the guy that died" (54:00) in the cinematic was not Matt Horner, the captain of the battlecruiser. The identification tag read: "M. Koiter", for Michel Koiter (3 May 1984 - 18 March 2004), a Blizzard artist who died from heart failure at the age of 19.
Can’t believe he died so young from heart failure 😢
He also has a tribute in World of Warcraft, as I believe he worked on it. There is a hill in The Barrens zone (now Northern Barrens) with a spirit healer named 'Koiter'. You used to only be able to see it when you were dead, but they changed that. Anyone can see him now.
Honestly I still hold that Tychus intentionally hesitated knowing Jim would shoot him, as he'd rather be taken out by his friend than a son of a bitch like Mengsk lightyears away with a remote kill switch.
Some context for the last cinematic, is that the Xel'Naga Artifact basically de-infested Kerrigan as the last mission is basically holding out long enough to charge and activate the artifact, all the while the Zerg and the Queen of Blades is trying to overrun you.
Also Valerian is fortunately a better man than his father, he isn't perfect, no one in the Koprulu Sector is but he's definitely not his father.
Oh Tychus definitely hesitated so that Jim could take him out. Or at least to give Jim a chance to do it. There didn’t need to be that long drawn out moment. Tychus could’ve snuck in and just pulled the trigger quick without saying a word. But like you said, better to have Jim take him out if he thinks Kerrigan is worth saving 🥲
IIRC (it's been a long time) Kerrigan being de-infested is a really, really big deal. Not just because it's the Queen of Blades, but because it's never been done before.
Tychus could have gone full auto, but he didn't.
@@mechanomics2649 it had been done before iirc... To one person (revived, infested, deinfested, reinfested.) Buuut won't say who.
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Tychus can't just leave, his suit have a explosive devise implanted and Mengsk have the trigger. And nothing on Mengsk's history can prove if he are going to respect his deal. So dying by the hand of a friend or by the hand of a a**hole ?
Well done guys, great reaction! The "and fix my damn jukebox" bit was just epic! :) Thank you for the entertainment!
Haha, glad you enjoyed it as much as we did 🥳🥳🥂
Unlike the two next starcraft 2 videos you'll watch, this one has a few variables in it. Specifically, the two cinematics at 12.30 and 13.45 with the doctor woman (Ariel Hanson) comes from a variable in-game choice. You can either choose to protect her people and she will take her leave on good terms (this is the canonical choice) OR you can choose to purge her colony of infected, which leads her down a path of self-experimentation and she ends up a mutated zerg creature Jim has to put down (this does not "officially" happen.) Also take note of the device Zeratul gave to Jim when he appeared and "bring tidings of doom", and notice that the same device is in the lab when Jim kills Hanson. If you kill Hanson BEFORE you get that device, it will not be present in the cinematic, which is a fairly cool attention to detail. The next "choice" cinematics come at 17.45 and 20.08, where we see Jim, Horner and Tosh in the first one, with the addition of Nova in the second. In the first of these two, Jim helps Tosh free Tosh's friends (Spectres) from New Folsom prison (along with all the other prisoners), while in the second cinematic Jim instead helps Tosh's rival Nova believing her when she says Tosh is evil, and Nova assassinates Tosh. Again, the first of these two cinematics is the canonincally correct choice, so Tosh does not get assassinated by Nova and instead joins Jim and Matt for the rest of Starcraft 2.
Oh and about the marine power armor? Yeah you "do your business" inside it.
I want to say I'm not fully satisfied with the order of these cinematics but there's no real "right" order in Wings of Liberty because the entire campaign is open and free-form, you pick and choose missions as you please. With the Zerg and Protoss campaigns the story is more ordered and organized. The reason they feel disjointed is not because of the order, but rather missing context of what happens between them and the whole Wings of Liberty campaign because of its freeform nature is naturally given to chaos.
With the Zeratul vs Kerrigan cinematic, this is a "flashback" which Jim can witness if he uses the device Zeratul gives him. Zeratul and Kerrigan fought on a distant world, and then after that Zeratul saw the full prophecy and realized Kerrigan needs to live.
So the story with Tychus is something you only find out in-between missions. Matt doesn't trust Tychus at all, so he does lots of things like discovering Tychus in the database hacking into the ships computers and most importantly Matt figures out the suit that Tychus gets put into at the start is a literal prison. With the flick of a switch, Arcturus can shut down all of Tychus' major organs. Heart, lungs, brain, killing him instantly. Neither Matt nor Jim finds out who holds the trigger though, Tychus lies and says the Moebius Organization is the ones who hold the cards, which would mean its Valerian Mengsk, not Arcturus. Arcturus here plays 5D chess while everyone else is playing checkers, sending Tychus to help Jim because at some point he'll be able to use Tychus for some powerplay. In the meantime he's ok with sacrificing whatever needs to be sacrificed to keep Tychus in play. Most prominently, Tychus is the reason for that one cutscene with Mengsk being interrogated by journalists, basically he's the one who piloted the supermech we use to make it happen.
And no, the guy who died in one of the final cinematics was not Matt Horner. Michel Koiter was an artist working at Blizzard who died from heart failure in 2004, and so he was honored in the cinematic.
Didn't know about Koiter. Cool that they put that in there. Absolutely loved Tychus' lines through the campaign too. "The natives are getting restless" is by far my favorite. XD
Anyway, good way to sum it up. I came down to the comments to explain to find you covered pretty much everything I wanted to. XD
Thanks so much for going into more detail on this for us! And we could see Matt not trusting Tychus and he was spot on about that. Would’ve been cool to see him uncover the truth. We didn’t need all the moments invetween. But some small ones here and there to maybe make it 5-10 minutes longer would’ve really tied this together nicely 😊☺️ Still had fun watching it 🤠
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames yeah that’s the issue with watching only the cinematics. There’s lots of story that is found by talking with characters on your ship in between missions and lots of story within the missions themselves.
Would be cool if in real life the question of who is right or wrong would also adapt to your choices wouldnt it be?
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames If you keep Tosh around, in between missions he'll have optional dialogue that hints towards a traitor on the ship
Tychus is my favorite character from SC2, Too bad he aint got no choice in the game cuz his suit have an "Kill-Switch" so he had no choice but to follow certain orders.
That’s the one thing we wish we knew that was left out. That and the fact that Matt was still alive. Other than that this was pretty well done for just cutscenes 😀🤠🥳
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames That to me is a huge plothole, because Jim finds out about the killswitch through Matt while they are still on the ship, way before the invasion of Char. It gets mentioned in that particular cutscene, and then Jim never asks about it or mention it again. One would think he would either ask Tychus or find a way to either jam it, or dismantle it mechanically after he finds out about it - obviously electricity affects the suit atleast.
It's tosh for me
@@NafanuaisMYnick The way they explain the kill switch it's likely that trying to disconnect it will set it off and kill Tychus anyway. Jim likely doesn't push the subject in case he pushes Tychus into a situation where he risks setting it off.
I always loved the Terrans in starcraft. They're basically memetic american south stereotypes set in space Australia. I just love that cultural image.
Heck tp drive the point home even harder the predecessor to the Terran Dominion was the Terran Confederacy, an elitist, tyranical oligarchy led by old family aristocracy complete with a stylised "Stars and Bars" type flag.
Edited for clarity.
We dug the vibe for sure 🤠
space australia hahahaha
More specifically Space Brisben, Go Space Broncos!
@KarSoban yeah that's one of the reasons why I always had mixed feelings on the UED, because one, Earth is the Homeworld afterall, and two, they kicked everyone's ass using local terran gear only to be crippled by infighting and then dog piled by everybody else (rightfully so mind you, I wouldn't of wanted them to try to maximus deletus the terrans again, space nazis what ya gonna do🤷 )
But hey they gave us space rednecks in space Australia🤣
Oh. Did you just equate the Zerg to the Australian wildlife? That's so true!
BTW, Heart of the Swarm has some of the most amazing CGI scenes!!!
And not to worry Ken, Matt survives to fly another battle.
Idealists can live in this world 😀 Definitely not a 40k game 😂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames SC has a generally lighter setting than 40k 😄 still dark but not Warhammer grim dark 😂
Ahhh ... my first game where I bought books to find out more about the story behind it. I'm not exactly a bookworm, but i made an exception for that game and i was not disappointed. :)
☺️🙂
At 19:56 he didn't teleport, its a cloaking device. He just went invisible.
Thanks! 🙂
But he can teleport...
@@syressx9098 Tosh can't teleport.
That poetic moment when Jim uses the bullet he saved to kill Mengsk to kill Tychus, who went to prison to keep Him out, but made a deal with Mengsk.
😯
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames
Not sure if UA-cam will like the link but here is a 3 min video with all the not-cutscenes interactions.
ua-cam.com/video/JxXMGRJnt6g/v-deo.html
Matt is still alive just a ton of missing cutscenes with the Protoss and uhhh Matt's story line. Honestly Matt felt plain but eventually due to Matt's persistent story line, even in Co-op missions, it grew on me.
I feel like the Wings of Liberty campaign is all about choices, the ones you make vs the ones you don’t. Great sci-fi western. Heart of the Swarm definitely has more of the Empire Strikes Back vibe. While Legacy of the Void is like Avengers Endgame “whatever it takes” kind of feel.
Empire Strikes Back Vibe! Hell yeah. We knew that one was going to be our favorite 😁
These cinematics are great but sadly they skip over some "important" scenes. So that you're not getting the full picture. One second the doctor is introduced and in the next she's getting killed without context.
But it seems that you had fun. That's what important.
We definitely knew there would be some missing parts to it, and sometimes it’s fun to piece those together. And see how wrong or right we are haha. But these were fun to check out even though incomplete 🤗
The great detail about Tosh's voodoo doll is that he made it to target a traitor (Jim) and the real traitor Tycus is the one who felt the results.
Please react to the new league of legends cinematic. The call, season 2022 cinematic. It's so good and detailed It's freaky!
We can’t wait 🤩
23:00 Arcturus had personal reasons to leave Kerrigan on Tarsonis. She, like Nova you saw in 2nd Tosh cinematic with voodoo doll was part of Ghost program - specialized assassins and espionage masters with some psionic capabilities (mind/emotion reading, suggestion powers, some 6th sense and extended awareness of surroundings). Core of the program was that after each mission their memories were wiped and reset and some mental conditioning and brainwashing was added.
Arcturus was a member of prominent family ruling one of Terran Confederacy worlds - Korhal IV. As Confederacy was tyrannical regime, due to some events Korhal IV rebelled at one point and Arcturus family were the leaders. Arcturus family members (his father leading rebels, mother and younger sister) were ordered to be killed by 3 Ghosts. One of those Ghosts was none other than Sarah Kerrigan. Kerrigan was the one who specifically killed father of Arcturus, decapitated him and took his head. Arcturus was at that time on another planet and survived. After killings he took over leadership from his dead father.
2 years later to show example Confederacy decided to nuke whole planet into oblivion killing everyone there. Arcturus was able to escape nuclear destruction and with few other survivors he established pirate group Sons of Korhal.
During one of their raids Sons of Korhal raided one of Ghost facilities where Kerrigan was being held to study her psionic powers and controlling Zerg. He rescued her as he saw her to be great asset to be added to his pirates. I don't remember if Arcturus at that point already knew that Kerrigan was one who killed his father or if he got that knowledge from files discovered during raid.
Later in course of Starcraft 1 Sons of Korhal and Arcturus with help of Jim Raynor (and player) were able to abolish Confederacy and establish Arcturus as Emperor of Terran Dominum. Just before end of campaign Tarsonis was destroyed by Zerg lured by PSI beacon planted by Kerrigan on Arcturus orders. At the end of mission Arcturus left Kerrigan on Tarsonis, so that she would be killed by Zerg as his little vendetta for killing his family (I guess fact that Ghosts were brainwashed and had their memory wiped didn't matter to him.). After this act Jim, who started to have pretty serious mutual feelings with Kerrigan, left Arcturus side and created his own small rebel group against Mengsk.
As we all now know, it backfired a little, because Overmind, the being governing Zerg at that time, saw psionic potential in Kerrigan and decided to get her into the swarm through infestation as its agent. We later get to know during all 3 campaigns of Starcraft 2 the real reason why she was chosen.
Okay. That makes more sense as to the reasoning. I mean, we still don’t like the guy and want him to get it in the end (or sooner) but at least we understand more 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Oh, yes, definitely not likeable guy, who makes you trust him with fake smiles. I'm fully on that with you ^^
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames The scariest thing about Arcturus and the entire Mengsk family line is their innate charisma. They're extremely good at using words as tools to get what they want. Arcturus' father Angus Mengsk incited the rebellion of a Core World against the Confederacy. The confederacy held 13 core worlds and an abundance of outlying fringe worlds, but the Core Worlds were sacred things, lead by the Old Families, the supposed nobility that ruled the Confederacy. The Mengsk family was one of those Old Families, along with several others such as the Dukes, Terras, Tygores, Calabas and Kusinis. Each of these families are descendants of the original commanders of the prison ship that brough the Terrans to the Koprulu Sector. Keep in mind, those ships were prison ships, so the commanders were effectively also prison guards and wardens. The Old Families are all descendants of one single vessel, the Nagglfar which was also the "main" ship the other three were slaved to follow due to its unique navigation control systems aboard Nagglfar. One of the remaining four, Argo, landed on Moria, a planet incredibly rich in resources (which the Confederacy coveted, which in turn lead to the infamous Guild Wars that ended about 10 years before SC1, Jim and Tychus fought together in that war). Moria became home to the Kel-Morian Combine, an alliance of mining guilds who had near constant skirmish against one another despite being allied. Lots of subterfuge and contract-obligated warfare, money is the only important thing to them. The last two, Serengo and Reagan, landed on Umoja. Saying landed is a bit of a misnomer for one of them. The Serengo crashlanded so hard it created a canyon on the planet and every person aboard died. However despite this, Umoja came off much better than most, because the remains of the ship were still salvageable, giving Umojan descendants a leg up on their two rival terran groups. Umoja is also where Valerian Mengsk was raised, as Arcturus Mengsk had a child with the Umojan princess and kept his son sequestered away in the Umojan Protectorate while he was campaigning against the Confederacy to ensure his family couldn't be taken hostage or killed by Confederate ghosts. This is also why he was away from his father when Angus got assassinated, by the way, to meet with her.
I thought Arcturus simply left Kerrigan there to die because she was the only one who knew that Arcturus was behind the zerg invasion of the planet and the billions that died because of it, as he kind of used them as a biological weapon to wipe out the confederacy.
@@Klaital1 not really. Same thing with luring Zerg was done eaerlier on Antiga Prime and Jim was fully aware of that. So there were more people, who knew about it. Originally it planned to be shown as Jim with Edmund Duke, who planted PSI Emitters on surface of Tarsonis, while Kerrigan was holding off Protoss. But mission was scrapped and never reached full release of game. Unfinished product can be found in SC1 beta disc circulating Internet or as exctracted and converted file by community to work with modern SC.
Oh, I also forgot to mention earlier - Tarsonis was capital world of Confederacy.
Also parts of that story were further retconned in SC2, as New Getysburg was originally one of orbital platforms defending Tarsonis, but in SC2 they changed it into one of sectors on planet surface where Zerg landed.
Which is a little dumb and cotradicts some parts of lore, because originally Protoss just used their capital ships to cleanse planets of Zerg infestation - oceans evaporated, upper layers of crust melted and planet was stripped of atmosphere, leaving dead rock. It happened to Chau Sara, Mar Sara and Antiga Prime. And battle in space around Tarsonis lead by Kerrigan prevented same fate for Tarosnis. Instead Zerg did the job there. So why would Protoss land on surface, when they could have just used their capital ships again?
Also in SC2, which takes place 5 years after events of SC1, Mar Sara is perfectly fine.
That ending hits different after some of the books, Tychus and Raynor were besties. They met in the military, eventually went AWOL together and became space cowboys robbin trains and other such shenanigans. But when the law finally caught up to them Tychus was imprisoned because he gave Raynor the one way out, even tho his mantra always was hed never sacrifice himself for anyone. But he was damned if he did or didnt in the end, his suit was ready to give him a lethal injection if he didnt kill Kerrigan.
See the suit killing Tychus is a part we wish we knew. Because then it makes him less selfish than “I don’t want to go to prison again”. Sad that it came to that but some damn good storytelling 😊🥲
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Yeah not sure why some cinematics were cut from the video you guys watched. The one scene where this is explained goes like this (from StarCraft Wiki):
Horner: "Sir, when Tychus came back aboard the ship, I had the techs run a scan on him."
Raynor: "Matt, you need to get a hobby."
Horner: "Seriously Sir -- his suit contains a sophisticated transponder... if it receives the correct code, it'll shut down all his major organs. That suit is a death trap."
Raynor: "He's got a gun to his head."
Horner: "And who's got their finger on the trigger? Moebius?"
Raynor: "Tychus, what have you gotten yourself into?"
They stole the jukebox during one of their train robberies. Really cool to see it in the sc2 campaign.
I am so happy that new people are still taking a interest in the StarCraft franchise. Honestly one of the best games with storytelling, gameplay, and community.
We really enjoyed checking out the cinematics and cutscenes for these 😀🤩
35:36 The Protoss wield Psi-Blades, basically they make a blade out of energy by sheer willpower and focus, it cuts and burns like a lightsabre but that's the only similarity.
49:29 During the campaign Matt finds out that Tychus' combat suit is linked to his vital systems, basically Mensk has a "gun to his head" if he doesn't follow his order to kill Kerrigan, the suit will kill him.
Mensk really needs to get that bullet someday 😡
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Oh he gets what he deserves dont worry, you'll see in the Heart of the Swarm cinematics
@@vahdoom good thing you didnt spoil them
@@vahdoom Yea good job fam, my bad, i thought confirming a death would be what people consider a huge spoiler.
Dont mind me though, keep rocking, posi vibes
@@vahdoom ofc my bad, spoilers dont rly count for bad guys because all die 5head only good guys that dont necessarily die have spoilers, so stupid of me, as stupid as thinking that confirming a fate similar to a bullet to the head meant death, heh, cn u imagine someone thinking that!
Quoting Tycus, “Hell it’s about time”. Also word of advice, Most of the stories especially for Heart of the Swarm happens in between gameplay and missions. If I’m not mistaken there’s a full video version which includes those scenes and incorporate them like a movie.
Those full versions are just a bit too long for us at the moment with our time commitments. 🤗
Can't wait for the next parts of this, I really love the Starcraft story.
It’s a fun story so far 🤠🥳
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Awesome! and just to answer your question Matt Horner isn't dead, he is alive and well in the story.
Gotta be one of the best space westerns. Tychus was a cool character, but yeah he was a goner no matter which way he had went. The suit would have killed him had he failed to kill Kerrigan, so being worthy of Raynors final revolver bullet seems like a better way to go out.
Bet even if he killed Kerrigan Mengsk would’ve still killed him or kept him on a leash to do his bidding so best that Jim did what he did unfortunately 😢
You must be very confused to try to follow the story only by the cinematics. If u want understand all the story u should try to play the game, most of dialogue and some cinematics take place in game, at the beginning of missions or in the end.
You could set the difficulty of this game to Easy if u only care about knowing the story. No need to post your exploits in this game it but for your own comprehension of the whole plot. Especially those mission who offer two choice to begin with alternate ending... Flirting with Hanson or killing her is an example, Siding with Tosh or Nova is another... It one end or another, no both.
His encounter with Zeratul is definitive about the story cos since Brood War; Raynor sweared to kill the Queen of Blade to avenge Fenix's death. But the dark templar told him to save her because only her can fight off the great evil guy in the end (a dude called Amon).
It why the 2nd opus is called Hearth of the Swarm. Saving Kerrigan is not an alternate ending but u maybe will not know how he will manage to make it so.
If u have any question u can ask, many people know the story and can explain you all. Just ask in comments. :-)
Please react to gears of war ultimate edition intro trailer and ending also please react to halo from the templin institute
So as to why Raynor killed Tychus instead of knocking him out like you said, in between the cutscenes during the downtime in game where you can talk to a bunch of the characters before missions Raynor finds out that Tychus' Suit is set to kill him if it gets the right signal which in this case is if Mengks decides he fucked up and didn't kill Kerrigan so at least in my mind Raynor just thought he's dead either way might as well be the one to kill him instead of Mengks. Also the dog tag that Raynor picked up during his speech is not Matt's it is a tribute to a blizzard artists who died of heart failure at an early age of 19. Blizzard likes to do tributes like these so keep an eye out for those if you're interested.
😢 even more sad that Raynor had to take down Tychus but in the end, Tychus may have wanted it that way versus being someone else’s slave because no way was he going to be set free even after killing her
The tags in that one scene is a random marine. I think the point was that he was kind of a representation for 'we're doing this for those that didn't make it' kind of thing. Matt's definitely still alive, and you'll see him when you continue on in Heart of the Swarm, the next expansion to StarCraft 2. Also, Tychus is definitely dead.
Correction: in the tag there -- most definitely not a "random" marine. Check out Michel Koiter, of Michel and René Koiter's Twincruiser, an artist duo for Blizzard Entertainment and the Sons of the Storm. It's a somewhat easter-egg nod of appreciation.
R.I.P. Tychus. We figured he was. And glad Matt is still alive. We weren’t sure what we missed inbetween the scenes but the message of we are doing this for those that didn’t make it is still nice ☺️
I feel like you'd also need to see the mission briefings to really understand all that's going on. Maybe even some of the ingame dialogue cuts during the missions. But seeing the cut scenes alone is already a great ride :)
We don’t have the full story to appreciate. But what we do have is definitely still fun for us to watch 😀
Here's a fun fact for you: that dogtag Jim Raynor picked up is actually from a player...who i think passed away. So they dedicated his name onto that tag o3o
We heard they died from heart condition at only 19 😢
“And fix my damn jukebox” you got me rolling after that. You really channeled your inner Jim raynor 😂😂😂
Haha, he is my spirit animal 🤠
I don't want to be a negative commenter, but there are better edited videos for the story.
So first of all a bit of information.
To begin with, Tychus could not be saved. Apart from being a loose screw, his armor was literally his cell. If he denied the order his suit would kill him. It was made that way to force him to do what he had to do and not just run away as soon as they let him free.
Now, fact 2. Throughout the game, using the device Zeratul gave Raynor, you see (as Raynor sees) what Zeratul went through (including that fight with Kerrigan, it was before he talked with Raynor). Watching Zeratul's journey you learn about the ancient prophecies and you see how the world will end if they don't change the path that fate is en route already.
Fact 3, Matt is alive. He is the admiral of the fleet, so he doesn't participate in ground battles (that guy was a random soldier, but Raynor has this habit of collecting his soldier's tags to honor them by building graves for them)
For the next two, I would recommend these 2 videos.
Heart of the Swarm: ua-cam.com/video/9bapiYyFtqU/v-deo.html
Legacy of the Void: ua-cam.com/video/gCISR0T3grE/v-deo.html (This one is a big one, but Legacy of the Void had a lot of content and it also includes the epilogue)
I highly recommend watching these videos if you want to understand what is going on and not just watch some cinematics that don't make too much sense
The first vid works but even in two videos not sure we could breakdown the third. Is there like a 2 hour vid for Legacy of the Void? Also, we don’t mind constructive feedback like you are giving. So no need to apologize. You weren’t negative just to be negative. You wanted us to have the best viewing experience possible which will make our reaction videos better so we appreciate that 🤗😊🥳🥳
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Well the next one in length is 1 hour, but it misses so much of the story. Legacy of the void had a very deep story telling, and most of it was during the missions. You will miss most of the stuff that make sense if you go with something shorter. The one I linked you for Legacy of the Void, is the shortest one that does not include actual gameplay (aka the strategy part).
Trust me, you will really enjoy it in case you go with it. If not, we are still here to explain anything you miss :D
The best way of course to get sucked into the story is playing the games. Not going to lie, Legacy of the Void, was the one game I cried like never before, because I had followed some characters throughout their entire stories.
Looking forward to it, love your content ^_^
Sarah Kerrigan was originally a human Ghost, like Nova; the red head we saw in that other clip, that was h we r.
But the point of this game, was to assemble all the pieces of that Artifact, and purge the Zerg from her.
Shame it couldn't last, but she has a bigger part to play; you'll see in act two: Heart of the Swarm.
Just posted that reaction for Heart of the Swarm 😀
You trying to come up with a name for Monday's, Call it "Full Journey Monday", or "Oddball Monday".
Working one right now is Monthly Monday Showcase. But it’s not set quite yet 🤔🤗
First off, I’m really enjoying your reactions, it feels great to see someone experience games that I’ve loved!
Second, I wanted to clarify an important plot point that was mostly missed in your viewings and so far in the comments. Zeratul gives Raynor that device to view his experiences. As people mentioned when Zeratul fights Kerrigan in that dark cave that’s a flashback from the device. But there’s a lot more info that is given too.
After that spat Zeratul learns more about the prophecy he keeps mentioning, and because of it he goes back to their home world Aiur and to the corpse of the Overmind (the old hive-mind of the Zerg). He probes its memories and runs into the spirit of Tassadar (the guy who crashed his ship into the overmind to kill it in the first game, although there are some shinanigans with this spirit that will come to light later) who tells Zeratul that the overmind was created by the Xel’Naga without free will and with one purpose, to destroy and infest the Protoss. But it exploited a loophole and created Kerrigan, who could be free from the enslavement of the Xel’Naga once the Overmind died.
This is important because the Xel’Naga are coming and if they control the Zerg then the hopes of the galaxy are doomed. Zeratul finishes this little exposition with a glimpse of the future if Kerrigan is killed. In this vision the Protoss stand alone after the rest of the galaxy has gone dark. The combined forces of the Zerg and the Xel’Naga slowly overtake their defenses and succeed in destroying the Protoss too.
Basically Kerrigan needs to live so she can turn the Zerg against the Xel’Naga and give the galaxy a fighting chance.
Ah okay. Thanks for explaining that plot point to us and letting us know more about why Kerrigan is actually important and valued in this 🙂
Hey you guys should react to home front (2011)it’s about when North Korea takes over America
We haven’t. Haven’t heard of that one before actually 🤔
It must be weird just watching the cinematics. You miss the story elements that are in the missions themselves, so you're constantly trying to fill in gaps in your mind.
True. But it’s also a little fun to theorize about what happened and why things are happening. Sometimes we are right but other times way off 😂
I still maintain that Blizzard should have made a "Worlds of Starcraft" MMO with a 3 faction PVP system similar to the Realm VS Realm combat in Dark Age of Camelot.
heart of the swarm and especially legacy of the void has a lot of great story cutscenes, and most of the dialogues is not part of gameplay, its more like talk or action in between of actual gameplay, and unfortunately most react channels did watch short versions, and didnt get even 30% of the story.
If i remember correctly, full compilation of legacy of the void cutscenes somewhere around 2-3 hrs long, plus small comics-style cinematic as prelude, similar to ones in WoW, but its so worth it! one of the most epic stories in videogames ever told! I hope for big version, even if it will be splitted into parts, worth the waiting also.
And now microsft own blizz ...highs hopes the game get some love yo excelente time to watch this, guys
Really excited to see what Microsoft does with Blizzard/Activision. If they start making some tv content out of the IP for that like Overwatch and what not and maybe a Starcraft 3 or Starcraft tv series 😊
Wasn’t alive when this game came out but damn I wish I was, one of my favorite stories in my history of games
Been a fan since the original starcraft. This was my intro to rts and what passionate creatives can put into the world.
☺️🤩
You miss alot, I mean A-HELLOFALOT-LOT of details and dieologe buy only watching the cinematic. Likecthe reasons for the Doctor's and Toch'es fates.
Watching only the Cinematics you miss out on quite a bit of Story, watching a kindof Gamemovie including Render-Sequences and some Ingame Dialogue would probably be better.
29:06 after replaying the og Terran campaign of StarCraft1, he said this to Raynor as a part of a conversarion they had *AFTER* he left Kerrigan to die in New Getysburg
Yeah the cinematics miss alot of detail tho you need to play the mission itself to fill in those missing information
In the future bro's before ho's is not a thing :D laughed out loud. great reaction
Haha, glad you enjoyed it 😁🤗🥳
I am writing through google translator, you had to watch a video with a full walkthrough, otherwise a lot of things are not clear 80% of the entire plot inside the game itself (for example, where the doctor asks for Jim and kisses and where Jim kills her, these are two alternative endings depending on from the player's choice)
They can’t smoke full size cigars because they don’t fit inside the helmet with the visor closed😂
React to naruto shippuden ultimate ninja storm 4 all ultimate moves
We plan to eventually 😅
Big fan of your show and Blizzard products in general. But, I've had a special place in my heart for Starcraft. The whole story is pretty fun and invigorating. I'm looking forward to watching your reaction for the whole hour long of Wings of Liberty!
🥳🥳😎🤟 This was as good as had hoped it would be and surprised us a bit with the tone 🤠
En Taro Zerathul!!!
I really love your reactions, but regarding the 50:32 - about missing some elements, actually those cutscenes barely touch the surface of the story, you missed about 70-80% of WoL story overall. So please for the next two expansions - HotS and LotV, watch longer videos to really get the idea why this franchise is so loved worldwide. My suggestion for HotS is this one from xLetalis - ua-cam.com/video/PIHI6x4BaTo/v-deo.html (I know is darn long, you can split this video in three parts), but so essential to understand the nuances of the story and the characters interactions. Keep up with your awesome work !
If we could make that work we would for sure, but time commitments both with channel and our jobs and life stuff not sure we’d be able to 🤗 plus we already watched Heart of the Swarm 😬😇 it is a longer and better vid than one we did for WoL though 🙃
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Indeed, maintaining a job and two channels requires a great amount of time, I really appreciate your efforts and your synergy. I'm glad to hear that the next one will be more thorough and I can't wait to watch it! Best of luck in your endeavors! 😘😘
I'm just hype you called the "Fix my damn jukebox" line.
Im getting the tingles in anticipation for the other Starcraft 2 reactions, teehee
Tomorrow Heart of the Swarm 🥳🥳
Sadly, you miss at least 2/3 of the story if you watch only the cinematics. There is a great deal of in game cutscenes and little dialogues on the ship that are not shown here.
Now watch the trailer for the second installment to prep for the next episode! :-)
GUYS, you really meed to look up what :Star-crossed lovers" means,.. IT IS NOT A GOOD THING. >.>
comes form "Romeo and Juliet" which should be a big clue..
We look at it as positive. There were a lot of things trying to keep us apart. And we have had to overcome a lot of hurdles over and over again. But our love prevails despite all of it. So we are Star crossed, but we told the stars to go F themselves and we keep on keeping on 😝😎🤟🥳
Love Starcraft Lore .
-To make things more understandable I'll give you guys a back story
Tychus Fidlay was working with Jim Raynor this whole time and before , they got cough and Tychus took all the blame on himself he did not rat out Jim. His a loyal friend of Jim , but when you are a criminal everyone for themselves in a way.
After Tychus was imprisoned they offered him a deal , to kill Kerrigan and go Free or rot in prison.
(By the way the armor he had was self destructive so if he would have disobeyed the order , Arcturus Mengskwould would have ordered to have him killed , so he had a choice , him or Kerrigan.)
On the other hand Zeratul (The alian) Told Jim the whole life existence rests on Kerrigan survival ! (That's why it made it was a hard choice for him to make as well)
And Jim had to choice to make the whole existence of life or Tychus Fidlay his friend .
A really hard choices there . Heart breaking.
We also wonder (taking out the save all life bit) if Jim would’ve simply chosen Kerrigan over Tychus straight up if given the choice 🤔
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames I think Jim Wanted her dead from get go and Manks , but since Zeratul came in and told him she must be alive , he have hope to bring her back , that's what turned the tables . Specially when he seen her in "Human appearance" so he has hope to bring her back to normal.
story with tosh similar to the doctor (2 alternatives depending on the choice)
The problem is a lot of important dialogs /story is in misions not only in cinematics betwen misions
I just wanna say that I am so pleasantly surprised that the emotional stuff in the story resonated with you. It can be hard to feel the gravity of a video game when you just watch cut scenes and not play it yourself, so this coming off so well was nice. Also Ken IMMEDIATELY getting the vibes of the StarCraft universe from opening scene was hilarious and after that everything clicked. XD
When Starcraft 2 came out, I had been waiting for TWELVE years for a conclusion to the story, and I had really resigned myself to seeing a revenge story where either Jim kills Kerrigan and feels empty afterwards, or even possibly one where Raynor straight up dies, the poor bastard.
So when we got the story, and they introduce an old friend (who clearly does care for Jim, even if his feelings are very complicated and his motivations ultimately are selfish) and the possibility of curing Kerrigan... man, I was so confused and conflicted! I really hated Kerrigan from my childhood days playing the first game, she is SUCH a bastard in that game, and she kills so many good characters and betrays everyone.
You saw the flashback cutcscene though, where Kerrigan is left stranded with the Zerg invasion, and Mengsk abandons her while Raynor protests. It sparked a memory of the sense of loss and bitterness you feel playing through that level in the original game, and also just a desire to see that horrible moment fixed.
Then, the last cut scene comes on... And Jim shoots Tychus, and Kerrigan seems like she's back to her old self... and Jim is carrying her, comforting her, and they both seem to be okay - I was basically speechless. That was basically the first time in Starcraft history the player got a "good" ending, however bittersweet. I remember just sitting at my computer, looking at it, and I won't lie, I teared up. Part of me felt like it was a betrayal to the ending of the first game, but a big part of me was also just so fucking happy to see something good come out of these two people.
This video brought back those memories. Thanks!
We are happy to bring back those memories 😊🤗 And the characters were well done to have us invested as much as we were. It’s not the full story and some of the side characters aren’t as important to us as maybe they would be if we played. But we still loved Raynor’s journey and look forward to Heart of the Swarm 🥳🥳
As others said there's clips in here that show different paths in the game. Also this one leaves out a fair few of the in-game cutscenes. I would highly recommend for the next 2 the full movie versions, though they come in around the 2 hour mark each, but are worth it. As the starcraft lore is so rich.
Not sure we will be able to do those longer vids. 🤗
It's a shame you did not play the game. You are missing a lot of details.
Loving the story of this game and the overall feel as well, it's like they knew what type of movies are my favorite
Haha, right? Combing a western and Sci Fi? Yes please 🤠
When thinking about why he chose to save her instead of helping Tychus, remember the conversation he had with Zeratul, in which he told Raynor that she's the only one that can save them, and gave him the little artifact with his own memories of what he saw when peering into the future. So maybe there is also bros before hoes, but there's more at stake at that moment.
Love your reaction as always, and can't wait for more!
There is nothing more at stake than bros before hos! 😂🤗 just kidding 😜 But we also would like to think that Jim chose love as well. In addition to the whole saving the universe thing 😛
Tychus tries to meet his quota of putting out a cigar every cutscene
Did you upload the new video yet?Or am i the only one who just can't find it?Haha
Hopefully you found it! We probably posted it shortly after your comment 🤗
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames yeee,sometimes UA-cam has its problems 😂 just found it.Thank you so much,good night from Greece ❤️
Starcraft II developers totally had to be firefly fans
You guys should react to Smite trailers!
We will at some point 😅
2 cinematics with tosh are resoults of a choise aither he joins you or he dies
My life for Auir!
34:05
Joseph "Ken" Joestar: Your next line is "...and fix my damn jukebox!"
Jim "The Man" Raynor: ...and fix my damn jukebox!
*NANI?!*
Same page 🤗 I identify with Raynor 🙂
The cinematics are great but there was player choice here. So many of these scenes can be outright skipped or you can choose the good or bad endings. Also tons of in game dialog and conversations with everyone. It's hard to recommend a video that would accurately capture the game but it's fine. It's still great as is.
Plus the scene where Zeratul fought kerrigan happened before he realized she needed to live.
Would’ve been cool to see that alternate version but that also could’ve been super confusing without context so understand why the uploader opted out of that 🙂
Terrans are race of sci fi cowboy bandits:) so yeah...) About Tycus: He died. But at the alternative unierse he survived and got infested
We think death is better than infestation 😨
The company that made Starcraft (Activision/Blizzard). Originally wanted to make a Warhammer 40k game. But the company that owns the 40k franchise. Wasn't willing to allow their IP to be used by Activision/Blizzard. Because they're overly protective of the Warhammer IP. So that is why the guy in first trailer looks alot like a Spacemarine from Warhammer 40k.
😎👍🙂
Which more Tom Clancy the division 1 and 2
Something real quick I wanted to clear up: the Zerg can INFEST Terrains and turn them into Hybrids.
But they cannot Infest Protoss.
The Zerg have no psychic powers, but we Terrains do.
So, the reason Kerrigan is SO powerful is becouse she's a custom evolved Terrain Ghost who was Infested with very Ancient Primal Zerg DNA.
You'll see in Heart of the Swarm.
Look forward to seeing it 🤩
Alot of Starcraft fans discuss the death of Tychus and what his true intentions were. A common theory is Tychus chose to die by Jim's hands. He knew he was screwed either ways. Killing Kerrigan would probably get him killed by Jim and also make himself a traitor. Staying his hand would have gotten him killed by Mengsk. So he chose to die with pride going out in a fight against his best friend. He could have gone full auto, could have turned off his laser, could have not waited like 10s to pull the trigger, so many things he could do to kill Kerrigan without making things difficult for himself. But he basically announced to Jim: "Kill me, save your girl." I believe he personally didn't want to kill her, as Tosh mentioned in one of the cut scenes "He fighting himself over something he don't wanna do".
Tychus went out like a champ.
Tychus definitely could’ve killed Kerrigan if he wanted. He took his time to give Jim a choice and if Jim wanted to kill him to protect Kerrigan then that seemed to be okay with him. He did go out like a champ 😎🤟
Yeeeeeeeesh I dunno if I mentioned it in your Warcraft journey but if I did it's old and possibly forgotten by now, these are just cutscenes from different points in the game, and there's hardly any context behind them. It makes for a great compilation, but I have a feeling that at least the Terran campaign, with it being non-linear, has a lot of weird socio-political plotholes. Most of that reason being, a LOT of the cntext is not even given during gameplay, it's given in the game's infinite myriad of unique dialogue that happens between missions, before and after. Most of the characters aboard the Hyperion (A city-sized super-battlecruiser) can be interacted with and all have unique dialogue that can be checked out and give context behind either some characters, or events that have and might happen.
Not to mention, the 'jukebox' cutscene shows 4 characters not shown in any of the cutscenes because one of them chills out at the bridge during his breaks, one of them runs the laboratory, one of them leads the vehicular armory, and one of them is keeping tabs on mercenaries Raynor can hire. The tv of all things is interactive too, and provides a on-site news report after each of your missions, where the for-the-people interviewer often duels for screentime with the spindoctoring news anchor. These spice up the whole game with dialogue and life, so when a cutscene happens, the characters you see are getting the screentime you wished they did.
But again, you're not watching this for the story, I think. But I'm no video editor, but I'm sure there's many ways Starcraft and Warcraft story compilations can be done by including several in-game cutscenes for relevancy at the very least. A TON of early World of Warcraft videos you have watched had no context either, and missed out on a ton of things that made those climactic videos what they were. Aaaaanyway, that's behind us all now. This game came up about at the same time as World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, so it's a bit rusty in that sense as well. The two expansions for Starcraft II are more linear, and there's less in the game itself that matters for the overall story.
For a bit of lost context, the whole story of this game was Raynor manning up to his depression after being invited to join his train robber partner on a treasure hunt to find Protoss-protected Xel'naga artifacts, said to have the power to sterilize zerg cells. Once the artifact is built up, it's used on Char, a magma planet that's been used by the Zerg since the earlier days of Starcraft 1. With the planet's zerg population vaporized, Raynor finally reunites with his tentacle girlfriend and everyone's happy. FOR NOW. The game introduced something new the first game didn't have. Evil Protoss. Those will come back in the expansion Heart of the Swarm a couple times, and will most definitely be an opponent in the Protoss-centric expansion, Legacy of the Void.
Happy journey! (Where are the Starcraft mugs?)
Haha, we don’t have Starcraft mugs unfortunately 🤗🍻
Honestly, just play the game, this game has the best campaigns ever made in a RTS game, i've replayed them so much becouse u can build your army up in so many different ways its insane!
Besides, u are missing alot of story thats told in the missions itself.
And there are different story paths that offer different upgrades/allies, though there is a canon route, one mainly shown in the Heart of the Swarm campaign.
Btw, the campaigns are all in order of release, Wings, Heart and finally Legacy, with Nova's mini campaign playing after that, and regretfully never got a sequel becouse of Blizzard's corruption by Activision.
This video is not bad, but its just all the ingame videos in a random order without contect making it only confusing.
Only so much time to play all the games we want. And while we can’t appreciate it on same level as those that played through it. These are still good at telling a fun story and had us moved by the end of it 😊🤗
The young captain and Jim Raynor's friend, Matt Horner, doesn't die and survives the events of Wings of Liberty. Unfortunately, Tychus dies in the final cinematic, they just don't show it to make it more dramatic. The twist at the end with Tychus is great because he is a character that sticks around throughout the entire game, basically a main character along with Jim Raynor and learning that his only goal was to eliminate Kerrigan hits really hard because he betrays everyone, including his closest "friend". In a way, he gets the freedom he wanted.
It was a great ending and we look forward to Heart of the Swarm ☺️🥳
Choice with the Doctor: either help her find a cure for the Zerg Infestation or PURIFY the Infested.
If you help her, she thanks you.
If you kill the Infested, she rushes and trys the FAILED cure on herself.
Wonder why this vid went with the choice it did 🤔
i love and hate this video for a few reasons (nothing against you guys you are awesome) I love Starcraft and Starcraft 2, the first game was one of my very first games ever played. The main reason i dislike this type of video/reaction (maybe because i think you guys are really missing out) is that by watching only the cinematics, you guys are missing huge chunks of story and context. There is so much story/lore that goes on between the missions - for example during a mini-scene Matt talks to Jim about Tychus, and says that he found that many of the suit systemshave been tied into his vital organs, and that he cannot take the suit off without it killing him; Jim then comments how Tychus basically has a "gun to his head" and tells matt that they need to be wary and see if they can't help him out.
Not to mention that sometimes there is dialogue during the missions that give additional context, or the introductions to each mission which expand the story (such as Zeratul's memories/visions that he gives to Jim).
and so i dislike it because i feel that you guys are missing huge chunks of the story and are missing out, this is honestly more an issue in Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void as there is more of the context given outside of missions/cutscenes etc and i feel you guys will be left confused unfortunately.
I understand though, if you were to include primarily the main points and edited game play you'll wind up with a uhh 5-6 hour video (this is one example: ua-cam.com/video/tA-D4p9lBPI/v-deo.html ) which isn't really feasible for a reaction video id say haha so i understand (i recommend playing through the games ofc.)
Edit: the guy whos tags Jim grabbed weren't Matts, he is not dead- but the name was actually that of a blizzard developer (if memory serves correctly) who passed away during development, blizzard decided to honor him by putting him in the cutscene (they do this again with another developer in a scene in Legacy of the Void)
We totally get that feeling. And maybe in future we can do longer reactions or split up those 5-6 hour vids into multiple vids. While we don’t get the full story or experience this way, something was better than nothing in our mind and we wanted to check out some of the story for this game that everyone was telling us was great 🤩🤗😊
"I love seeing him squirm". As do I, Raynor. As do I.
Egotistic politicians should fear the press.
😏
I really enjoyed this game but idk I didn't really care about Tychus. I just never got attached because they death flagged the man all the way through some 6 hours of plot so when he died, it was more like "finally" for me. Plus, I wasn't new to sci fi westerns and a Cowboy Bebop or Firefly this is not although that might not be a far comparison. I guess this also does that thing where it's dramatic effect over consistency, like that power armor is the most overpowered/underpowered piece of equipment I ever seen. Like you can tear down doors with it but just about every projectile in the world goes right through it which is weird. Fell like the design is the same way where that is some really cool looking kit, but you can't fit in it without removing the wears arms which I can't unsee now but to be fair again that's like 90% of power armor out there that is that thick.
Fair critique 🙂
You really lose a lot just by watching the main cinematics. A lot of the plot is sequenced on board the ship, when player as Raynor talk to the crew members, and also conversations during the missions. There are two videos on YT that contain a large part of this content, one has 3 hours, the other 6.The first one, however, has a strictly chosen path and where there are two missions to choose from, it shows cinematics related only to one route, the 6-hour one is fuller. Maybe you decide to update some of the fragments that are contained there. (for all 3 games you find those cinematics, consider their participation in your journey through the world of Starcraft).
Meanwhile, a few explanations for a few cinematics. For start, Tychus Findlay suggests Raynor to find the artifacts, says he works for scientists from the Mobius Foundation. As you already know, the head of this organization was Emperor Mengsk's Son, Valerian, and these artifacts made up the device that appears in the penultimate cinematic, it triggers an impulse that restored Kerrigan to her human form (except for her hair, they remaining zerg).
Now more timely:
12:30 and 13:47
Dr. Ariel, before those two cinematics, we help colony that she lead, after that, she join to us for a while and give us a chance to aditional 2 mission for her, and those cinematics are result of our decision in last mission for her story.
15:55
After a few missions, this cinematic appears, protoss Zeratul gives us a memory crystal, in the game it allows you to play a mini campaign where we control this faction (protoss) and learn the history of his search for prophecies and vision of the future, this cinematic from 34:30 is an introduction to this mini-campaign, the rest of this story is in the fragments I wrote about at the beginning.
17:45 and 20:07
Raynor's path crosses at one point with that of Gabriel Tosh, the specter, a new type of commando from the Mengsk empire who has rebelled. We perform several missions for him as with Dr. Ariel and the end of this is a mission in which we decide to trust him and free the prison. Second cinematic shows up, if we decide to stop working with him, then Nova contact with us, Mengsk's "favorite" commando (that's why she say "not today, anyway") from the ghost group (the same type of force as Kerrigan in cinematic at 21:51, specters were to replace ghosts, Tosh was the first, but after his rebellion, the remaining candidates were imprisoned in that prison at 17:45)
21:51
Jim's dream about past at some point of game.
25:52
When we collect almost all the artifacts (only one item seems to be missing), a meeting takes place that was a small plot twist of this expansion, i.e. discovering who is behind the Mobius organization, then there's a little cinematic aboard the raynor ship where it stands in front of the artifacts, and we hear Valerian's words telling him how this artifact could save Kerrigan. Then there's an argument with Matt Horner (good guy in officer uniform), about whether they should continue working with Mobius.
28:31
This video does not necessarily appear in the order shown here. At one point, Raynor and his crew discover the audio recording (revealed by journalist) and decide to break into a TV station to "plant" that record to the media. Cinematic is the aftermath of this mission and it is up to the player to do it before meeting Valerian (it seems more logical to me) or later.
30:33
This cinematic is a continuation of the events from 25:52, Raynor of course, decide to continue working with Mobius, which is defacto the hated Mengsk empire and after completing the mission of obtaining the last part of artifact for them, we have this cinematic.
34:30 Look at description of 15:55
38:42 and on
The last 3 * missions start here, we have collected artifacts, Mobius tries to put them together into a device. And we have to deliver them to the yard of Kerrigan, cinematic from 41:25 is the end of the first mission, the landing on the planet did not end as fully as the General wished and we have to save him. Then we have to decide, we have two missions to choose from (that's why I gave * at the beginning, all missions here we have 4, but two are mutually exclusive), after choosing one and finishing it, we have a cinematic with back of the general, showing that the artifact is ready and Raynor's speech. The last cinematic is the end of the last mission in the game, where we had to defend the place where this artifact is, until it charges, then a beam of energy is released that kills the surrounding zergs and Kerrigan, as she has human DNA, only restores to the previous human form.
Thanks for providing the time stamps during the explanations 😀 We would’ve loved to have done some of the longer vids but we cover a lot of franchises and videos every day between both channels. Plus full time jobs and live-streaming and editing. We had to make cuts somehow 🤗 Maybe as channel grows we can do longer vids on here 😀🥳
Raynor may not have killed Tychus, but he would still have died because Arcturus Mengsk had a kill-switch in his armor so he had to kill Kerrigan or die himself :( Though you are right, Tychus was a great antihero(?) or foil for Raynor
Also! Fortunately, Matt was not the one on the dogtag :D
Dreams come true!
🥳🥳
I'm, so sorry, but where is the reaction to the new COOLEST cinematics League of Legends CALL ???? We are very much waiting !!!
It’ll happen. We film ahead of schedule so that when stuff comes up it doesn’t interrupt everything. But we will check out the Call for sure 🥳🥳
StarCraft 1 kinda pioneered the idea of western tropes being brought up into space, and Wings of Liberty went full hog with it, from ccharacters to soundtrack. Although the focus of the flavouring applied to the Terran faction in the first game was based more on general Southern US and Civil War era.
🤠🤟
Miesha did a fantastic job here, don't need me. I will say this, though, if you like sci-fi in western style you have to watch Firefly. Sadly, it only lasted one season, but it was excellent and has gathered a cult following. In fact, the movie, Serenity, was made to close out the story Firefly began.
We will try and check that out at some point. Always looking for good shows even if it was just one season 🙂
41:27
One of the Best Cutscene Ever in the Starcraft 2 Wings of Liberty
Ost Title : Card To Play
I wake up to that song ever day
Another alternate story path that for some reason was NOT included - you can either help Tosh free the rest of the Spectres, in which case they turn out NOT to be the psychopaths that the Terran Dominion paints them as - or you can help Nova (that's the woman that killed Tosh), in which case the Spectres ARE the psychopaths that the Dominion paints them as. I think the reason they chose the "kill Tosh" story path is because of how funny it is when the voodoo doll works (just not on Raynor, as Tosh expected). The only difference between the two paths is whether you can train Spectres or Ghosts for the rest of the campaign.
It did add a little bit more humor to the vid having that scene 🙃
Also btw this leads into the heart of the swarm cinematic yall saw, where she was laying in a bed in a lab, he brings her to a place to make sure shes alright, so that is next.
Monday. Looking forward to it 😁
Ah, Tychus truly didn't want to kill her. But, had he refused, he would have died anyways. That suit was more than just his prison, it was a deathtrap. Had he not followed orders, the suit would have shut down his major organs and killed him. So basically he was screwed either way.
Might as well be killed by a friend than that weasel Mengsk
You guys are in for such a treat, I remember discovering this story/game back in middle school. Imho Jim/Sarah is one of the deepest sci-fi relationships across movies, books, etc. Also, I can't wait for you guys to get shivers when you hear, "My life for Aiur!" (in later expansions) :D
😯😀 We like getting goosebumps from storytelling ☺️
I watching you at your reactions on mortal kombat 11 a you had a 40k subs and now you have a 105k gongratulations ps(im Czech) sorry for my english
Thanks! 🤗🥳🥳🥂
Tychus is dead, Arcturas Mengsk had rigged his suit to destroy most of his vital organs if he didn't follow his orders (hence the red flash) so it was either bullet or violent electrocution. when Zeratul attacks kerrigan is a flashback to before Zeratul understood the prophecy where kerrigan is the key to everyone not dying. Matt Horner is still alive.
Cannot wait for Mengsk to get what’s coming to him 😤😡
I don't wanna be that guy but like there are so many cutscenes missing and since I saw you two so invested I'm lowkey triGGered lol
But like... been waitin' for this moment my entire life so I'm lowkey happy
Haha, we know there is a lot missing. But it is still quite enjoyable. 🙂🤗😊
playing the game will make the story way better
There was no saving Tychus, his entire rig was set to kill him if he didn't comply with Mengsk. Jim knew that the suit was going to kill him regardless, the bullet was probably a mercy.
Yup. Wish that had been incorporated in this cutscene compilation movie. It’s the one big missing piece that we’ve been told so far. There is more we missed but felt like that one had to be in there 🤔
