One of the things I love about the Gears of War universe is that while they are humans the world is not earth and the society that exists has nothing to do with ours. It grants a certain freedom and mystery to the game world
@@FlatterNewt1036 earth does actually exist in the GOW universe! It’s just a myth since the human kind moved thousands of years ago to sera so ancient it kinda doesn’t exist to the people of sera
@@JessicaGarcia-xf9wr That's false. It's just 15yo fan made up stories by kids. Sera is the only planet humans know of. It's an alternate universe to ours.
I remember playing through the series originally, and finding the Locust to be much more terrifying and mysterious when their origins had yet to be revealed. When it came out in the story that they were created by humans, it sorta became a lot less plausible to me. It was believable that an ancient civilization had been down there for millions of years, but it wasn't plausible that they had scaled so drastically in numbers and had an ancient religion and ancient ruins and stuff in so short a time.
I feel like the New Hope facility in Gears 2 basically explained how the Locust came about with the Sires (although at the time the devs denied that the Sires and Locust where connected). It left out a lot of the details but your imagination could fill in the blanks. I just didn't think it was as recent at it is.
That origin is a retcon when the studio decided to forward with gow4. Check out the interview with the original writers and read the first five novels. The locust always existed underground. An Ancient civilization that worshipped worms.
The books are great, really like actually hearing what characters really think and feel. Made me really appreciate The Cole Train, who is the hype man but still writes his dead parents as away to cope
thats exactly why im here baby! cant wait for e-day. been dying to see the beginning of gears and before all the really tragic stuff. top 3 gaming stories ever made imo.
Oh man, I really want to see more Gears videos, maybe a video theorizing on what'll happen in Gears 6? Gears has always been one of those franchises that I've followed ever since I was a kid on the Xbox 360. I fell in love with this franchise and never grew out of it, it'll always remain as one of my favorites.
GOW was basically my sleepover coop game for my buddys and me growing up. I never understood why the locusts were the way they were. Just blast'em ya know? As I began lore hunting and seen this now. I think " Next time I'll be nicer when I aim for the head" haha.
I felt you made Niles Samson out to be too much of a saint. The man himself - or what was left of him - stated the Cog wanted soldiers, he gave them gods. Samson was enraptured in his research to an extreme degree, and billions suffered for it. Ultimately, Humanity is responsible for the Locust War but Samson was the one who chose to go even further. Otherwise, I love your lore videos; your narration is captivating and you have a great understanding of the Gears universe as a whole aside from that one objection I mentioned earlier.
Not sure what gave you that impression. The video blatanly says that he did numerous experiments with no moral reprecussions and in no way justifies his actions
Personally, I think the Locust should have been aliens native to Sera. The Locust being native to Sera would clean up the Locust population issues associated with the lore. Also think the COG would have been better off as being written as the descendants of genetically engineered colonist that lost and regained their technology.
Same, I just assumed they were an underground army taking the planet back. The real lore is cool and all, just seems like an army that can pop up anywhere kind of explains itself.
I always thought the locus were ancient living mostly to themselves underground until the humans discovered imulsion and the subsequent gold rush to extract as much as possible brought the imulsion near the locus resulting in them forced to attack the surface in order to escape the lambent. Which makes sense how the locus are so well developed and numerous. Saying locusts were created like 50-60 years before E-day is insane how did they become to advanced and numerous in such a short period of time?
I was thinking the same thing. That was very stupid for the devs to do. They should have been an ancient civilization and not man made monsters. Kinda ruins it all.
I did wonder why the labs went unexplained (to me as a child) but its frankly boring that the locusts were man made mutants. Feels like the canon was wrapped up this way to justify the story in the microsoft sequels
Thanks for the great back story/history of the origins of the Locust Horde & “Emergence Day.” Am NOW looking-forward to playing the NEW “Gears Of War - E-Day,” on my X-Box Series X console once this new “Gears,” game is finally launched on Game Pass!!!!!
I wonder how many Humans lived on Sera before E-Day? They mentioned that billions of people lived there before E-Day and only hundreds of thousands had survived. They also mentioned 99% of Humanity had perished, which literally would be 99.99% if you factored billions down to hundreds of thousands. So I'm gonna assume the Pre E-Day population ranged from 2 to 8 billion people, meaning anywhere from 500 million to 2 billion people died on E-Day. I wonder how many people lived in Tyrus? Since it was one of the wealthier and more powerful countries, maybe a few hundred million? It had a lot of big cities so...
The one thing that the lore seems forget is that there had to have been some form of sentient creatures living in the Hollow before Myra and the locust arrived. Structures and writings in the hollow were described as ancient. Idk about y’all but 80 years (at most) doesn’t seem ancient to me. I’ve heard somewhere that the Kantus are actually native to the hollow but I can’t remember where.
I think some of the in game collectibles stated the ruins were ancient. It might just be a big oversight in the writing but I think it’s far more interesting if the kantus and some others have been running around the hollow for a long time.
This was amazing!! Haven't completed Gears 5 so maybe a lot of this back story comes from it, but I always wondered where the Locust came from and why they "emerged"
I would love to see a mature animated/anime style take on e day and a spin off of maybe another squad, the lore in gears of war is huge they don’t have to just settle with delta squad I mean if they do they better do it right but making something new would only make the gears universe feel bigger and it should be with all the characters and enemies
Wisefish I know you must be busy on other works etc but may I request you look into persay the horus hersey or some stuff from warhammer 40k maybe the unification wars to the great crusade your videos are always well researched and quite entertaining so it would be dandy if you could maybe branch into warhammer lore? again thanks for your great videos!
The biggest question I wanted answered is what if the pendulum wars never happened and the cog and uir were at full strength how would the locust war have went would it have went the same or would locust not been able to get as far as they did with everyone weakened
Iirc, if the Pendulum Wars didnt happened, the Locust war wouldnt either. As the locust were the result of super soldier experiments for the Pendulum wars
@@AresdarkKaOslike imagine you’re grey and almost reptillian like and these mfs see you, not only that but the fact that locust are man made makes it worse. I highly doubt the government that created them would let them prosper
Since you know so much about Gears lore, I was join g you could explain the difference between Ephyra and Jacinto? At first I thought Jacinto was a separate city, but I think it’s maybe a district in Ephyra itself?
this was a great video but I do wanna say that the lore behind the Locust and E day doesn't make any logical/rational sense. According to Gears of War 5, the Locust were created at max 50 years or less before E day after a max few hundred locust escaped with Myrrah into the hollow from the lab. In addition to that, the reason why the locust invaded the surface was becausing they were losing the war against the Lambent in the Hollow. This means that in 50 years, the Locust had created a civilizaton as well as a population that was advanced and plentiful enough for them to fight a 2 front war with the humans on the surface and the one against the lambent in hollow which they were losing. E day was a simultenous invasion of every major city on the surface that killed billions in a single day, this would take millions upon millions of Locust to do, and they were still fighting the lambent. Lastly, what makes this the most implausible is that the primary means of reproduction is with a male drone and a female bezerkers (which were so violent they killed anything they came across and had to be tied down to be mated with). Such as small timespan and such a impratical repoduction method, means that there is no way the locust could do what they did in. It would be more believable if the Locust had existed for centuries rather than just a few decades
@@WiseFish oh no sorry, I'm not having a go at you. You made a great video. Just wanted to express my thoughts about the locust lore! Keep doing what your doing!
@@kicokyaw1039 I do agree with you though there are some bits that a bit questionable I guess because after the original trilogy they added new bits but that screws it up a little. I do enjoy the story but it’s a bit messy
@@Veachie I think your missing a Key point. The lore also states that locust would have wiped out humanity with in a couple of years if it weren’t for the hammer of dawn counter attacks. That’s why the cog burned sera. Every time the locust captured a city they would use its infrastructure to move troops and weapons. The cog calculated at the rate the locust were advancing humanity would be gone with in a year or two. So they used the hammer of dawn to burn sera and deny the locust access to factories and other infrastructure they were using in their war effort,killing millions of them in the process. That’s why war lasted 17 years.
Not sayin ur wrong but it jus blew my mind. Never played BS but can gell the guy in the cover art is supposed to be marcus fenix, but when i look it up it says Bulletstorm takes place in the same universe as Borderlands. Does this mean Gears of War and Borderlands are set in the same universe?
This is what made GOW great, a sense of desperation with an overwhelming enemy and odds of winning were almost zero basically what 4 and 5 were missing entirely.
You know, in hindsight, I really wish The Matriarch wasn't just a one-off character boss fight in a mostly forgettable game, I really wish she was an ACTUAL part of the Locust Horde, I mean COULD YOU IMAGINE, a sentient, intelligent Berserker as a Locust general? Or being Myrrah's personal bodyguard?
Hilarious how Gears 1 never mentioned this. You spend 60% of the game setting up the radar bomb, fail... and then Oh yea, Adam's dad has a complete map on his hard drive. HOW? WHY? WHAT?

As a kid I used to think this was happening on Earth and the locusts were an underground civilization.

this was a great video but I do wanna say that the lore behind the Locust and E day doesn't make any logical/rational sense. According to Gears of War 5, the Locust were created at max 50 years or less before E day after a max few hundred locust escaped with Myrrah into the hollow from the lab. In addition to that, the reason why the locust invaded the surface was becausing they were losing the war against the Lambent in the Hollow. This means that in 50 years, the Locust had created a civilizaton as well as a population that was advanced and plentiful enough for them to fight a 2 front war with the humans on the surface and the one against the lambent in hollow which they were losing. E day was a simultenous invasion of every major city on the surface that killed billions in a single day, this would take millions upon millions of Locust to do, and they were still fighting the lambent. Lastly, what makes this the most implausible is that the primary means of reproduction is with a male drone and a female bezerkers (which were so violent they killed anything they came across and had to be tied down to be mated with). Such as small timespan and such a impratical repoduction method, means that there is no way the locust could do what they did in. It would be more believable if the Locust had existed for centuries rather than just a few decades
