God being a locust must suck, you either wake up to fight the never ending hordes of lambit, or you go to the surface to fight the never ending hordes of plot armor
Tbh it wouldn't make sense because of the timeline im not even expecting to see the chainsaw lancer but im pretty excited to see what the coalition gots in store for us seeing as e-day was the day the war started between humanity and the locust
@@trolltime2128 I still think an Easter egg will happen. Like maybe a lambent wretch or they might do a cutscene for the beginning which would be fine.
3:00 This definitely makes me wonder what a situation where Myra asked for help instead of starting war would be like. Would certainly make a cool What-If. Maybe She makes a deal with the COG, their help science and military wise in exchange for resources from the hollow to help in the Pendelum wars. The outcomes are limitless.
I could imagine a locust civil war occurring against the queen from those who are the extreme order of the trinity of worms making there claim to the hollow whilst those loyal to the queen work with the humans. In the end. The locusts who joined humanity with myraah settled on the surface in the headlands and in the outskirts of human cities, maybe myraah finds her daughter and asks to live in the city and want to live a peaceful life. Some humans would be against this bit the majority of locusts stay in the hollow with those loyal to myraah in charge. To me thats we're I would have gone if I wrote it.
The Coalition has a lot sitting on their shoulders, a lot of pressure is being put on them to get this right not just by us but by Microsoft as well. I have just a little bit of faith left in modern gaming to believe they can do this right! They can learn from 343's, EA's, and Ubisoft's failures! Thank you for this video Abz, I know the franchise is hurting right now and the real world is even less bright, but these videos are a fun way to take a break from it all and enjoy something we loved as individuals in a community! 💪Brothers 'till the end...
Thanks brother, yeah I really hope they get this right and hopefully we get some news dropping soon! Always love this community so much, brothers to the end!
Unrelated to the video but, I recently played through Resistence 2. Which I started thanks to you Abz. I was really suprised to find out it had a full finnish dub and that it was actual good dub.
Have we any clues on how the COG held against the locust for 13 years when they were about to get overrun in 1 AE and the locust could launch massive counterattacks (thanks to the rift worm) one month only after the lightmass bombing ? I'd definitely watch a video on this
would be pretty sick to play as a locust drone under the leadership of raam and skorge against some lambent. even only a couple missions or so, just to emphasise how desperate they really were.
Still think we need a Locust game. As shown in the lore, they are pretty deadly. We could be one of those squadrons that devestate both lambent and humans.😅
I actually did a game concept of this. It's a huge opportunity and they could do three campaigns of each in the trilogy. Imagine playing before, during and after e day.
Considering what the Locust got up to during the War, I don’t think there would be any appeal in playing as one. I don’t know about you, but I still remember Maria, and how she had to be put down like a fucking rabid dog thanks to the Locust and their “tender” ministrations. The Locust aren’t a relatable species: they don’t care about family, freedom, or peace, and they certainly have no qualms against torturing their prisoners. Now I know humans are no better in some cases, but the Locust? They cross every line, moral, ethical, spiritual, you name it. They’ve crossed it. I get more enjoyment out of bashing their heads in then I ever would playing as them.
@@SupremeOracle Admittedly it is fun to play as the villain for a bit, but only when those villains are somewhat relatable. Raam was essentially the Locust equivalent of Marcus; formerly a disgraced warrior of the Horde who rose through the ranks with skill and hard work before becoming the supposed “chosen one”(har)of his species. I related to him because he wasn’t just some asshole with a deep voice; he was a character with history and motivations beyond “kill everything.” The rest of the locust though? Not very interesting. The ones who aren’t all “FOR THA QUEEEEN” are usual so damn brain dead that they can only be charitably compared to a wretch.
Even though it ended like this but who's to say we can't imagine what would have happened if the queen went to the leader of the cog and asked for help directly but their existence was still kept a secret. Just imagine the cog and the locust fighting together against the lambit threat, now that would be something special.
I still don't get how the locust managed to hold the inner hollow for the past 15 years after they splited their forces when at their full strength they were still struggling🤔
@@KingAbzTVyou know the way they mate is sad since the berserker are blind, huge, and have no idea what is happening, and it seems the locust can't marry. It would be interesting to see them have wives
What we could use, is a RTS game of Gears of war. Story can be completely non cannon to the main story but uses characters from both games and comics as hero units. With three factions being available. Locust, COG, lambent being used with game modes that could be similar to halo wars 1.
I still think instead of 4 and 5 we hould have got a locust campaign of the lambent wars. I made an enitre video of this and how three campaigns could be and my own plot story that could explore further into the culture and further exploration in the hollow.
Even if the Locust did colonize the surface, would flooding the Hollow really have stopped the Lambent from following them? Also, I’ve wondered how intelligent the Lambent are. Is imulsion itself intelligent or does it just use what its host knew?
I really hope "Gears Of War: E-Day" at least touches on this. Or at the VERY LEAST Lambent Locust skins are available. I also hope Ukkon is a playable character, again.I also hope Adam Fenix is a playable character, too.
The Lambent Brumak was admittedly one of the most anticlimactic ways to end a game, let alone end Gears of War 2, but the game is still good nonetheless.
If the Savage Locust were Tribes, why did we NEVER see them SQUABBLING among EACH OTHER? and if you THINK ABOUT IT, when The COG flooded The Hollow, did the Lambent Civil War, REALLY END? When you THINK ABOUT IT, didn't it just MOVE to ANOTHER THEATER?
How do I start this whole lore dive? I played gears of wars 2 many many years ago and I wanted to retry it? But where do I start? The games or the comics? And which games do I play first?
Do you think that they might change the origins of the locust? Because the timing between their creation and building a whole civilization within 50 to 60 years and then having a war with the lambent, then humanity with insane amount of numbers doesn't make any sense.
Yes I really hope they retcon it by having the Kantus as native to the hollow who built most things etc but the drones escaping into the hollow during the early pendulum war era
@KingAbzTV Thank you for replying, but out of curiosity, is it ever stated how berserk reproduce? Because we know that berserkers produce locust drones, but do they also produce more berserkers? And if not, how do resupply the berserkers they lost? Was there a set amount created at the new hope facility before they escaped?
God being a locust must suck, you either wake up to fight the never ending hordes of lambit, or you go to the surface to fight the never ending hordes of plot armor
😆😆😆

Abz returns with a big one!
You're gonna need an imulsion drink and some rockworm snacks on the ready for this JUICY timeline video!
Love your videos, thank you so much keep up the great work!
When Gears of War E-Day comes out, this channel is gunna blow up. Rightfully deserved.
Appreciate you man, here’s hoping! 🫡
Hope we get more Lore for the Lambent Creatures in E-Day.
Homestly I can't see them focusing on that bit might leave an Easter egg.
Tbh it wouldn't make sense because of the timeline im not even expecting to see the chainsaw lancer but im pretty excited to see what the coalition gots in store for us seeing as e-day was the day the war started between humanity and the locust
@@trolltime2128 I still think an Easter egg will happen. Like maybe a lambent wretch or they might do a cutscene for the beginning which would be fine.
I honestly cant see the Lambent being in E-day due to it really didn't make a hige appearence on the surface until Gears of War 3
I just want the locust back the swarm is kinda boring ngl
Give the Locust some credit, they were on the verge of ending humanity, who was giving everything they had, while fighting another war underground
I love that in the comic Skorge is pissed at the boomers for calling out their " BOOM! " over and over. Lol. " STOP CALLING OUT YOUR ATTACKS! "
LMAO I love that
The GOAT has posted!
you're too kind, thank you!
I love your channel, thanks for keeping the Gear community alive.
Done what I can but a lot more work to be done since I’ve been away!
I LOVE these videos.. King abz is back!
Gonna have to grab me some food before I watch this one, so glad to see you back.
Well, I guess Marcus brought the popcorn.
HES BACK WITH A BANGGGGGGGGGGER
i swear if TC adds the Locust-Lambent war as a DLC campaign im gonna be SCREAMING for my life (the "S" is silent)
Aye the king of Gears of war is back thxs for this :)

dig in baby, goin into overtime
the king is back!
Pure gold ❤️👌 always get so pumped when I see you post pop up in my notifications!
Appreciate you!! 🫡💙
The freaky part is this began towards the end of the Pendulum wars and there was less than a month of peace after the end of the Pendulum wars.

@@KingAbzTV Yes 😎
LETS GO ABZ! ❤
I was having a bad day
But now that abz has uploaded this day will get better.
a bit of lore from the abzmeister will help your day for sure!
Been waiting nonstop for this! Great video!!
Thanks brother!

I'd definitely watch a video on this
For those who don’t know, Lambent means glowing or bright
I wonder if the lambent never existed, would the locust just stay in the hollow forever.
The legend is back!!!
another banger of a video Abz keep it up
Thank you brother!
MY GOD! FINALLY AFTER TWO MONTHS! THE KING HAS POSTED❤
ME MASH!!

You really helped me understand everything about gears
Granted... the Queen and Locust hated humans either way
Another great video man was hoping for 2 hours lollll
Thanks and maybe another time 😆
Been a while

Great to hear from you again, old friend! My best to you and your family, and I hope you're doing well.
Thank you my friend, I hope you and your family are in good health and well also!
I still don't get how the locust managed to hold the inner hollow for the past 15 years after they splited their forces when at their full strength they were still struggling🤔
hmm I guess they kept reproducing and also began taking human weaponry underground which would've helped in their efforts against the lambent
@KingAbzTV I can see that, definitely with the one shots for bigger abomination from afar and the scorchers to burn out the infection.
@@KingAbzTVyou know the way they mate is sad since the berserker are blind, huge, and have no idea what is happening, and it seems the locust can't marry.

Gears 3 ending was the most goated ending to a video game I have ever seen

The King is back😊
Every great shooter has to have its version of a zombie. My favorite the flood from halo
Tbh wanna see more this the crew they got now. Bringing back Paduk gives me hopes for maybe bringing back Sofia. Kilo team reunion
Let's go
Nice video abz, can you do one on scenes that tease what we may see in e day ?
It would be cool if the swarm in gears 6 somehow restored the hollows and that is where the queen is
Would be cool and interesting if humanity and the locust teamed up imagine delta squad being Marcus dom Raam and scorge
The Lambent Brumak was admittedly one of the most anticlimactic ways to end a game, let alone end Gears of War 2, but the game is still good nonetheless.
popcorn time
w, cant wait for E-Day!!!
I'm still waiting for a locust dlc where you fight the lambent in the hallow
Edit: Awesome vid btw
Abz has there ever been a Lambent Kantus in the lore at any point
nope not that we know of, the kantus have many mysteries behind them!
If the Savage Locust were Tribes, why did we NEVER see them SQUABBLING among EACH OTHER? and if you THINK ABOUT IT, when The COG flooded The Hollow, did the Lambent Civil War, REALLY END? When you THINK ABOUT IT, didn't it just MOVE to ANOTHER THEATER?
True they relocated arenas after the flooding of the hollow 😆
Hopefully they are still working on the movie/Netflix series. Any updates on that. And love the video
Can you explain the hellidivers lore, you might like it and I want to make sense of the story
How do I start this whole lore dive? I played gears of wars 2 many many years ago and I wanted to retry it? But where do I start? The games or the comics? And which games do I play first?
What will happen if the chimera virus took the place of the lambent in gears of war
Can you cover evolve someday

This why i Choose locust not lambent welcome back
Sorry I’m a bit late to the vid Abz I’ve been busy with school 😭
all good man!
@ I love your vids btw
What about swarms king abz
What about swarms please talk about swarms what makes swarms different to locusts horde
Wasn't it called the Lambent Pamdemic on the offical wiki?
the lambent pandemic is the events during gears 3 and just prior to it
@@KingAbzTV
Oh.... Thank you
Wait do the disciples count as Lambent?
Nope
