Fun fact at 5:15 you can hear "arrows drom the sky" which is a line by the unit of Tratos in Firestorm when you select him. It actually refers to the mouse arrow in game, which makes Tratos having the only 4rth wall breaking line in the entire series!
It probably refers to the landing craft if it is a reference to the scrin. Or even the planetary invasion craft. The large capital ship with deployable fighters.
Thanks for keeping cnc lore alive there is so much unused potienal for future stories that ea just doesn't seem to grasp or care about! Fantastic video
NOD: believes tiberium to be the next step in human evolution also NOD when encountering humans that have actually already adapted to tiberium: WTF, not like this, gross
@@lewistreadwell7006 It kind of makes sense, though: stripped of its pseudo-religious trappings, Nod political philosophy is about control. They value Tiberium for its qualities as a tool to bring about that control. The Scrin and the Forgotten represent what Nod fears most: for tiberium to wield control over them, instead of vice-versa.
Tiberium lifeforms in general were woefully underutilized in C&C3. The lifeforms of Tiberian Sun made the planet seem so alien, a feeling that the third game didn’t pull off.
@@EnigmacTheFirst yeahits sad the first time i modded a game for myself i made the forgotten a playable faction in firestorm was fun to play around with ofc was lacking alot of new stuff to be a solid choice since it was just my own nobodys hobby i love them so its much potential wasted
@@EnigmacTheFirst >trick an enemy soldier into going to a tiberium field >he dies >a visceroid spawns >proceeds to gobble half of the enemy base while they are panicking and trying to shoot the hell out of it. Difficult to pull off (since I don't really know the formula for spawning a visceroid in details) but rewarding and fun as heck. Especially when playing as NOD.
i Honestly wonder if there was a proper C&C 4, if the planet was compromised not just on surface but also downwards towards the core. Earth becoming nothing more then a floating green crystal.
The C&C got a good lore. I think, the Forgetten got a big potensial. They can survive in Tiberum hell and wasteland. They leaved by both sides on slow death.... When a starts fight, like a "good guys vs bad guys", many, who watch on this fight, forget about people, who live there. They not got a power or any protection. So, i just pay the respect to all mutants and Forgetten. You are a strong. You always survive, in any place, in any time. Even you got a scars of wounds, together, you can make more.... Stay strong, alive, and not alone....
Hmm I guess they're their own faction. In Kanes Wrath they were only an army that could be called upon once their hub was captured. The mutant units were only infantry and part of marked of Kane and blackhand units
The biggest flaw in C&C 3 was the severe lack of The Forgotten, the most they had was the Mutant Hovel, which spawned Marauders, but the fact they were COMPLETELY obscure from the story, that was a major letdown, Tiberian Sun will always have the best story.
With how much resources GDI put into tiberium destruction. I would of liked them (especially Zocom) to take a dark turn with their attitude towards mutants. Add a little xenophobia towards them so they’re not the purely good guys. Make the story more interesting
@@blindoutlaw And with the Steel Talons being the faction created by McNeil, the GDI hero that actually worked with and trusted the Forgotten, you could have a small civil war within GDI where they oppose the ZOCOM division. Thematically, it would work perfectly! The Steel Talons are the "underdog" of GDI's military departments, being the "department for experimental technology" in name only. They receive incredibly little funding and the walker weapons and technology they employ are considered outdated and surpassed by GDI's idea of standarts. Meanwhile, ZOCOM is the "golden child" of GDI. Their success in employing and developing sonic technology to combat and erradicate Tiberium is deservingly received with the highest of praises. And the highest of fundings. Although not as numeral as the main military and civil garrisons of GDI, it is undeniable that ZOCOM is by far the most favored department of the organization. _And yet, there is a far more crucial, _*_more moral_*_ difference between the two._ Steel Talons were founded by McNeil, so it stands to reason that, like their leader, the soldiers serving this faction would also be taught and share on his viewpoints. This would include, among many things, the importance of crushing Nod, the importance of developing GDI's military technology... _and also giving their aid to the Forgotten._ Their once precious allies,, but who are also people, constantly suffering from Tiberium. Meanwhile, for all its high praises, ZOCOM is described as *"fanatically opposed to all Tiberium".* Their determination to rid the world of Tiberium reaching the point of raging zealotry, not unlike Nod's. *Y-You can see the problem here, right?* ZOCOM would be _on-sight_ against the Forgotten and wish to simply eradicate them once and for all, as another Tiberium plague upon the Earth. And because the majority of GDI's higher ups favor them greatly, they would most likely cover up and ignore any massacres that ZOCOM commited against the Forgotten, the media not even making a single mention of their existance. But obviously, McNeil and the Steel Talons would be enraged by such atrocities, specially since they rightly know they do not align with GDI's core principles and purposes: it's not just "eradicate Tiberium", they are the *Global Defense* Initiative. And the Forgotten are also people. So obviously, they would do their most to oppose ZOCOM and their backers. *Even if it meant fighting against them, alongside the desperate and abandoned Forgotten.* Not gonna lie, thay could make one hell of a really cool story! And one that could follow up on Kane's Wrath, because at the end of the day, this civil war inside GDI would also be of great interest to Kane and the Brotherhood of Nod. *And you know damn well he wouldn't let that chance slip by, he would try to take advantage of that situation in some way.* Which could ultimately reinforce the importance of GDI and the Forgotten just setting their differences aside, help each other and unite against the brotherhood. Or possibly even worse, *a second incursion of the Scrin.* As Kane and LEGION found out, the assurance that General Granger's team gave that the Threshold Tower is completely inactive and dormant was completely wrong: them "Ichor" addicts are coming back for blood and the little "invasion" they had dealt with was only a _(supposedly small)_ mining corporation. *Not the Scrin's actual military force.* So with that possibility imminent, the Forgotten's own knowledge and adaptability with Tiberium may yet prove to be more crucial than ever before. And since the Brotherhood of Nod will always fanatically reject the idea of cooperating with them, it falls upon GDI to reforge that alliance. *That is, unless ZOCOM and their supporters continue to have their way.*

Awesome! You capture the mood of the C&C perfectly! Love to see this lore explored in such a well-researched and produced way. PS these scripts are genuinely great - awesome narrative, keeps us hooked the whole time.
Thank you so much! I actually seriously struggle with the writing, my brain really isn't cut out for parsing language tht well, glad it sounds like the scripts come off alright!
As this channel lives, the Tiberium Universe never dies. I said it before one a couple of your videos and once more I say that I love the amount of detail and research that goes into your videos on the lore. The presentation is top notch and FEELS C&C to watch. It is too bad the best hope we have for a proper sequel is a fan made game or mode with a campaign where all four factions (Nod, Scrin, GDI and Forgotten) progress in a way like Wars did, all leading to same result but you get to see all sides to the same story. I would love to see it run that way with every campaign turning to the "second to last mission" where after there is a four way final mission that plays out different depending on who you pick. Wipe out humanity and mutants to claim Earth for harvesting, secure a foothold in Red Zones using new mutant units to have a supply of tiberium from the most rich areas to create tiberium weapons for a new war on GDI, successfully begin the final stages of reclaimation of Earth from the crystal, or prove yourself as enough of a valid people and force GDI to the negotiation table to create Mutant-Human borders, giving mutants half of Earth while GDI reclaims and maintains the rest with hints such a peace will not last in the long run.... I would love to see a story like that, a true end to the saga if we see the GDI faction ending as canon but the Nod ending leaving the ending up to the players imagination.
More C&C Lore? so soon? A Surprise, to be sure. But a welcome one. The Forgotten had such potential. I always wanted to know more about them, see more of them. The mere existence of the Mutants as an independent group made the world feel so much more alive. One can only hope some future C&C game will do something with them.
The story is over. It all ended in C&C 4. If I remember correctly even tiberium magically vanished from the planet. I refuse to play the game and I know it's universally hated, but it's still the canon story.
@@ellixen I'm still hoping against hope that EA will retconn C&C4 out of canon...like us fans have. Joe might be older now but there could be canon reasons for an aged-up Kane. A proper end to the franchise could be made. It probably won't happen, but it's nice to hope ;)

I love these lore videos. Command and Conquer is my favourite sci-fi universe of all time, and it makes me so happy to see people like you keeping it alive. We will not be forgotten!
Having only played the first C&C and Red Alert, it surprises me how much of unexplored lore there is to this Universe - at least from my perspective. Fine work on the video, mate.
Another great video from you. Thanks dude. If there ever is a full length movie or a series about the command & conquer tiberium story... You definitely need to be part of the production
@@baseddugalle1838 No no, you misunderstand I didn't mean the Forgotten units replace Tib Essence(maybe some of the buildings because I really like the Forgotten's buildings) I meant Tib essence units but with Forgotten storyline and lore.

Thank you for making this video. I enjoy watching in depth and sincere videos of the Tiberium universe. Maybe it's just nostalgia, because I grew up on these games, but I find this video wholesome in my own personal and even dark way. Thank you again.
Nice work here man. You really made this sound like the "History" channel giving a documentary on this westwood "tiberium" age. I bought the remaster. Can't wait to challenge you all! All hail Westwood and the legacy they have left!
I'm just glad you didn't include the failure called C&C 4. The Forgotten are my most favorite faction of all time, and you just scratched my itch to see more of them. Thank you ❤
My English is not so good but I really like how you are presenting all the informations you gathered! Even it is hard for me to understand all of your words I apriciate all the hard work you are doing! Thank you for all the videos! I really enjoy all the (for me till today) unknown informations!
Nice Upload. You just made me realize I have NEVER beaten any c&c with GDI. I'm looking at the jewel cases right now... I'm going to fire DOSBox up tonight. Thanks!
McNeil is also seen as some type of mutant, in the lore he was rescued by GDI from a Nod medical colony, he was experimented on,that's why he says, "how does it feel to be the guinea pig for once?" when he captured Slavik and had him injected with a sedative.
I really enjoyed this fascinating look at the forgotten backstory. As much as I loved Command and Conquer 3. The one thing it did wrong was not giving the Forgotten much acknowledgement. I would've loved to see more of them. Strangely despite only being the 2nd game in the series; Tiberian Sun somehow feels even further in the future. It's also undoubtedly the darkest in the series and had a beautiful atmospheric soundtrack to go with it.
It won't be imminent, but there seems to be quite a lot of interest in a video on GDI specifically, so I've been looking into what I could cover, it's on the table
@@NoStringsPrd GDI has always been my favourite video game faction. Their desperate struggle for keeping the planet habitable and order against impossible odds has fascinated me. Looking forward to your video!
Cheers! Its odd though that half the footage was near wise-screen, and the other half was stretched 4:3, sometimes even flipping between the two in the same cutscene
@@NoStringsPrd yeah there's even a weird scenes where cgi was overlayed on top of the squished 4:3 footage with black bars added on top and bottom of the image
As always a great video. You can tell you really put a lot of work into making these. It's such a shame that there's literally a world of lore already there for grabbing and EA is doing nothing with it (other than your typical money grab mobile game).
I have a very good feeling of that encounter between between the forgotten and GDI ever happened, GDI would happily allow them to use tiberium for their survival but under contained regions, that is until NOD decides to mess up everything again
Love the effort you put into these videos mate. I hope we will have a triumphant return of C&C one day. I was hoping Warcraft 3 Reforged would be received well to spark some more interest in RTS games but it currently stands at 0.5 on Metacritic. Ouch. The C&C Remasters seems to be shaping up pretty well though.
It's a real shame about Reforged. Thing is it puts EA, strangely, in the position to genuinley make an impact in the genre by getting the Remasters right, I really hope they do! I don't trust EA much, but Jimtern, who is heading the project, really seems to know what he's doing. Fingers crossed. Cheers mate!
I love how you're just like yeah and thats the end, Alliances and Twilight and Rivals didn't happen, yup, the end. And I love you for it because it's the gotdamn truth

Sad we will probably never get those questions answered. C&C Twilight was just awful and left more questions than answers.

seing someone making tiberium video in 2020 warms my heart
I feel like a Forgotten finding a cosy rare spot of Tiberium to warm my infested heart.
Yes. I agree. Sadly we may never see a continuation to the main story line and what happened to Kane since EA killed the franchise.

Fun fact at 5:15 you can hear "arrows drom the sky" which is a line by the unit of Tratos in Firestorm when you select him. It actually refers to the mouse arrow in game, which makes Tratos having the only 4rth wall breaking line in the entire series!
Neat! I always wondered about that.
I always thought it two fold, the 4th wall break and the Scrin
It probably refers to the landing craft if it is a reference to the scrin. Or even the planetary invasion craft. The large capital ship with deployable fighters.

You are basically keeping 'franchase alive. Love and respect
Thank you so much, really glad you enjoyed it!
It's been a long, long time since I played this series, but it's lore and atmosphere has kept it fresh in the minds of fans for decades. This is some wonderful nostalgia.
I love your work on C&C lore, criminally underrated videos.
The liquid tiberium must be flow
Hi hows it going?

by the way how do you get tiberian sun to work in windows 10? EA's fucking useless at helping and I can ever get into a single player game or anything cause it freezes when you click on anything in the menu it will back out if I hit the esc key but will not go any further forward and it makes Cain Mad
@@raven4k998 forums bro dont have hope in ea is like have hope in politic
@@raven4k998 cnc.net has the game online,but if you want to play single player wait a few months and go on open ra to download an entire remake of the game.
I love these lore videos. Command and Conquer is my favourite sci-fi universe of all time, and it makes me so happy to see people like you keeping it alive. We will not be forgotten!
I love you and your command and conquer lore.
In the name of Kane!
Kane lives in death!
Awesome video. I am so excited for the Tiberium Essence 2.0 Mod. So much cool fluff and added Forgotten goodness in that Mod.
Having only played the first C&C and Red Alert, it surprises me how much of unexplored lore there is to this Universe - at least from my perspective.
Fine work on the video, mate.
I love all of your C&C videos Im glad to see its not dead and forgotten
Time to watch this amazing channel grow.

Another great video from you. Thanks dude.
If there ever is a full length movie or a series about the command & conquer tiberium story... You definitely need to be part of the production
That's very kind of you to say, thank you, glad you enjoyed the video!
I'll be making a series soon on it.
I also thought of Nod as the fictional modern day ISIS.
Ah, thanks again, buddy! Yet another great C&C lore video from you!
It could pass as TV documentary, just like your other videos. Keep up the good work! ;)
I missed the tribute to my favorite faction in all of C&C. Thank you for handling their lore with so much respect.
Thanks for this vid bud, Love these lore explanations of Tiberian Sun etc. Good stuff.
A video on kabals cyborg army would be nice
Btw your lore videos helped me pass english class,thanks
CABAL is definitely on the table
@@NoStringsPrd thanks
Um I'm nod and these cyborgs were so annoying with their emp freezes on my stuff :)
@@toptendawgbaybeeeeeee i remember trying to kill the cyborgs with militants
Took me about 30 minutes to kill 1

I'm just playing Tiberium Essence mod with The Forgotten as a faction, they are hella fun
my canon is a twist between Tiberium Essence and The Forgotten by C&C labs
@@essex3777 Tiberium Essence Forgotten can stand their own
@@baseddugalle1838 No no, you misunderstand I didn't mean the Forgotten units replace Tib Essence(maybe some of the buildings because I really like the Forgotten's buildings) I meant Tib essence units but with Forgotten storyline and lore.
Probably the best series of lore videos ive seen out there, love the style and everything about the videos!
I've c&c renegade but never understand much or fully play c&c Tiberian series, but after watched the whole chronology lore is very fascinating. Even your story telling is grim but there is nothing to joyful in such crude and twisted for this cursed world.
This is an incredibly well made video! and such genuine love for the lore. Makes me even more hyped for the upcoming remake and eager to play the originals
The C&C got a good lore.
I think, the Forgetten got a big potensial.
They can survive in Tiberum hell and wasteland.
They leaved by both sides on slow death....
When a starts fight, like a "good guys vs bad guys", many, who watch on this fight, forget about people, who live there. They not got a power or any protection.
So, i just pay the respect to all mutants and Forgetten.
You are a strong. You always survive, in any place, in any time.
Even you got a scars of wounds, together, you can make more....
Stay strong, alive, and not alone....
So much potential for a new Cnc game after the remasters. Hoping and Praying for that potential to be realized.
You're keeping my childhood passion of Tiberian Saga alive, man! Thank you.
I don't know what it is about that phrase that EVA speaks makes me get all goosebumpy all over. I love this series.
Thank you for making this video.
I enjoy watching in depth and sincere videos of the Tiberium universe.
Maybe it's just nostalgia, because I grew up on these games, but I find this video wholesome in my own personal and even dark way.
Thank you again.
Thank for your video. Fantastic, like always !
This is the stuff I wish made it into a full blown film. I long for stories like these!
Oh hi there.
So nice to see you again....
BECAUSE YOUR VIDEOS ARE THE BEST
the new style is really cool good job
7:50 Josh Holloway - damn, dude!!!! :))) Didn't know he was in it!
Came here for this comment.
Finally a new video like this..i love your content mate.
Nice. Thank you for this Lore Video.
You made really good video.
I wish a more subscribers to you!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
@@NoStringsPrd I glad, what you awnser.
Thanks you for video.
Also, about Forgetten:They got a higher change on survive.
Nice work here man. You really made this sound like the "History" channel giving a documentary on this westwood "tiberium" age. I bought the remaster. Can't wait to challenge you all! All hail Westwood and the legacy they have left!
Friggin awesome man! Love these vids
Thank you so much!
I'm just glad you didn't include the failure called C&C 4. The Forgotten are my most favorite faction of all time, and you just scratched my itch to see more of them. Thank you ❤
My English is not so good but I really like how you are presenting all the informations you gathered! Even it is hard for me to understand all of your words I apriciate all the hard work you are doing! Thank you for all the videos! I really enjoy all the (for me till today) unknown informations!
Thanks for a video about one of the most interesting game universe!
Omg a new video! 😱😱 They are sooooo well made! Cheers mate! Keep em coming! 😊😊😊
I'm on it!
Cheers mate!
Man...I love your videos in C&C lore....
I want to ask if we will get to see pehaps a small video about the Scrin...?
Yes! Not imminently, and I may cover CABAL and some other stuff first, but without question I'll get to the Scrin!
Cheers mate!
Well done! i enjoyed every bit of it
Next time: Dune II? Ooooh. Did you know that officially, Dune II was the first C&C game? :D
Nice Upload. You just made me realize I have NEVER beaten any c&c with GDI. I'm looking at the jewel cases right now... I'm going to fire DOSBox up tonight. Thanks!
McNeil is also seen as some type of mutant, in the lore he was rescued by GDI from a Nod medical colony, he was experimented on,that's why he says, "how does it feel to be the guinea pig for once?" when he captured Slavik and had him injected with a sedative.
Brilliant! Live this piece too! Wowza, you're good at this.
Beautiful explanation i can listen to you for hours!
Holy Moly I had no idea James Earl Jones was in this game, damn. This legend is Darth Vader and Thulsa Doom both. Impressing. Most Impressing.

와.. c&c를 아직도 이렇게 새로운 정보 정리해주는 팬이 있으시다니. 너무 좋아요
God damn man love these lore videos love how much work you put into it.
Great job dude. I really enjoyed!
Goddamn bro why are you so good at these lore-documentaries
You sir, are an excellent storyteller!
Bless you sir for your amazing video!
I really enjoyed this fascinating look at the forgotten backstory. As much as I loved Command and Conquer 3. The one thing it did wrong was not giving the Forgotten much acknowledgement. I would've loved to see more of them. Strangely despite only being the 2nd game in the series; Tiberian Sun somehow feels even further in the future. It's also undoubtedly the darkest in the series and had a beautiful atmospheric soundtrack to go with it.
Once again mate, you've outdone yourself. All I have to say is Mission Accomplished
Another excellent video about this amazing franchise
The infected Forgotten could be evolving into Scrin. That's crazy and I love it!
Another great video! Thx bro =)
awsome video. i hope you will go on in exploring the CnC lore.
i hope you'll be doing GDI lore soon, these videos are really interesting
It won't be imminent, but there seems to be quite a lot of interest in a video on GDI specifically, so I've been looking into what I could cover, it's on the table
@@NoStringsPrd i look foward to what you come up with, and i've subscribed to you now (don't know why i hadn't until now)
@@NoStringsPrd GDI has always been my favourite video game faction. Their desperate struggle for keeping the planet habitable and order against impossible odds has fascinated me. Looking forward to your video!
@@Maritimus89 Nod has been my favourite but i do favour GDI's tech.
Amazing Job Man I Love it
a huge thank you for aspect correcting the footage especially that of tib sun. many youtubers just don't care about that
Cheers! Its odd though that half the footage was near wise-screen, and the other half was stretched 4:3, sometimes even flipping between the two in the same cutscene
@@NoStringsPrd yeah there's even a weird scenes where cgi was overlayed on top of the squished 4:3 footage with black bars added on top and bottom of the image
As always a great video. You can tell you really put a lot of work into making these. It's such a shame that there's literally a world of lore already there for grabbing and EA is doing nothing with it (other than your typical money grab mobile game).
fantastic work!
i really like how you threw in that its like the spice of arakis.
I've been subscribed for a while... But videos like these make me want to see them ASAP so I joined the notification squad.
another damn winner, I love your CNC videos...
for some reason, youtube unsubbed me, idk why, but i am subbed again now.
Huh, sorry about that, a few people have said they were unsubbed, really no idea why.
Cheers!
I have a very good feeling of that encounter between between the forgotten and GDI ever happened, GDI would happily allow them to use tiberium for their survival but under contained regions, that is until NOD decides to mess up everything again
*Nod, as usual, just making life 10x worse for everybody and refusing to acknowledge it.*
Superb, thank you mate :)
Love the effort you put into these videos mate. I hope we will have a triumphant return of C&C one day. I was hoping Warcraft 3 Reforged would be received well to spark some more interest in RTS games but it currently stands at 0.5 on Metacritic. Ouch. The C&C Remasters seems to be shaping up pretty well though.
It's a real shame about Reforged. Thing is it puts EA, strangely, in the position to genuinley make an impact in the genre by getting the Remasters right, I really hope they do! I don't trust EA much, but Jimtern, who is heading the project, really seems to know what he's doing. Fingers crossed.
Cheers mate!
CNC Remasters are epic! Get it! Support it at launch! Send a message that CNC is not over to the publishers!
this brings back memories man! Thank you!
Damn, this is REALLY fascinating, thanks!
You can see a lot of influence from Westwood’s work on Dune 2 leak into the C&C, even the stories. Basically trading out spice for Tiberium.
This is absolutely awesome and I thank you for it.
Did i just watch a pitch for a movie ? :D
Nicely done! Loved it!
