Gears 5 is a game. That's about the most interesting thing I can come up with to describe it. It's just a game, neither bad nor exceptional. Just a game created by people who didn't seem like they had much interest in making it. Here are its sins.

In love with the carpart gag
Do dead space
I hope you were joking, but I'm gonna say it anyway: the p is silent.
Dartigan we have enough battle royale games but I was hoping gears would make one in hopes that they’d have players launch from underground and through the surface instead of falling from the sky
forget about it already just pick it right up.. thank for reminder....
I'm disappointed there's no sin take off for Marcus saying one of the best lines in the gears franchise.
Marcus: "It's Fahz right?"
Fahz: "Yes, sir."
Marcus: "Shut the f*** up Fahz."
Yes.
This was the reason i came here but he skipped it. Shame.
This and many others but whatever
That was the best and cathartic scene in the whole game.
That deserved atleast a 5 sin reduction
Stock Laura Bailey character is having Stock Laura Bailey character problems. You'd think after a couple of decades in the business they'd give the woman some variety, but nah.
Angry woman is still angry woman.
Have you ever heard of Persona or Cathrine? Maybe Sonic Generations or Fire Emblem Awakening. Final Fantasy XIII? There are plenty of roles where she's played some very different characters.
Yeah, those games totally aren't filled with sarcastic 20 somethings(or the vague equivalent) with dad issues. Lucina might actually be one of the most Laura Bailey characters there is because yes I played that.
Bailey herself complains about the type casting. I doubt either of us know more about her usual role than she does.
Bloodrayne. Though her character did have to kill her dad in the second one, but that was just due to him being an evil asshole then anything else.
Kainé from NieR is amazing.
I love the random names he gives to the previous games.
Alternator 4 and Break Pad 5 had me dying
Wait that's what he was doing!? I was confused and thought he was just tossing names of the settlements and shit.
😂
Spark Plug 4
Distributor 4
JD going from Lieutenant to Captain in a few months is definitely a sin.
Brian Achim its possable but thats kind of the least unrealistic part in a game where you fight a giant beast and then blow them the fuck up with lasers.
To be fair captain is only one rank above Lit. It's not like he went from lit to major
@@gummybearmovement1068 Actually there are two lieutenants. A 2nd Lt and a 1st Lt. JD was a 2nd Lt which is two ranks below captain. And realistically I don't think you can go from 2nd Lt to Capt in a few or even several months. In real life you have to have a Bachelors degree to be a Captain in the US Army, and before that you have to have been a 2nd Lt, which also means you have been selected and successfully gone through OCS. Not trying to dis anyone or sound smart though.
@@user-nd1hn6ds4n well I doubt the bachelor degree thing would be a requirement anymore considering the whole world is at war and there's so very few of people left. Plus 2nd lit is right before captain its 1st lit 2ndlit cap major lit col ,col , generals (idk how the general system works )
? I could be wrong but JD was obviously a LT during his before going awol to stay with Kait Village. In Gears 5, by the looks of it they made him an enlistee, that's why Fahz complains to JD giving orders since Fahz is the ranking officer. (But due of plot, and 'experience' he still gives orders despite being low rank). I'm assuming due of the months that pass by, JD was already an officer before in the past, but in off screen "MONTHS AFTER" he gets promoted to Captain. *Keep in mind, again, since JD was already officer he probably was qualified to be promoted since JD joined the COG military I'm assuming years..?* So Jinn "FoRgAvE" or "disReGarD" JD's Hammer of Dawn Incident somewhere later to be promoted to Captain.
*Short Answer*
Basically due of plot that they didn't really go in depth in making sense of being promoted to Captain right away OR because let's skip all that and it's just a StOrY blah blah give him rank captain pls
All the names for gears of war had me WHEEZING
Same hahaha
Agreed.
Took me 8 minutes too long to realize you were switching names of the games with various gear-and-vehicle related words. I legit thought you were talking about tie-in comics or DLC names for a while, and was questioning who the hell would name a dlc "spark plug 4".
Also, the COG settlement walls were built presumably for security against "outsider attack" and the weather. They definitely were NOT designed with Locust/Swarm consideration - presumably due to the belief that the Locust were completely eradicated.
How can a set of walls protect against these giant tornados, the funnel would just pass over the top and destroy the roofless settlement.
@@harleyhunt6073 unless there was something in the walls that deflected/prevented the tornado from passing over and the rest of the wall was just to prevent the wind from damaging the settlement.
Say Kray-Ken one more time. I dare you.
I wanted to rant about the story and I figured this was the place. Kaits connection to the locust could have driven the story SO far compared to what they did. Not to mention that the original plan was to start hitting the swarm where it hurts, instead they use it to fend off a mass attack. I can kind of understand why, but there really should have been more to the story rather than just fending off a mass attack and meeting a new queen.
Two words. Sequel baiting.
I kinda hoped that when Kait learned of her connection she had to fight the zombie queen for control after she learned of kaits plan to make peace with the swarm and that the only swarm who followed Kait was the Matriach and the grubs in the building. That would have been sick as hell. Also I hate the matriach flaw design.
I mean I do like playing as JD at the beginning because it truly shows his change after the hammer killed Lizzie and almost killed him.
Another cliffhanger. Time to wait a couple more years. Hopefully, we'll see a return to 4-player co-op & a fifth Act, like in the previous Spark Plug games.
4 player campaign was a cool thing, sad that I didn't have anyone to play with.
Hey buddy! Nice seeing you here!
(It's me, Matt Logan!)
@@LoganProductions54 Oh, hey bro! Hope you're doing well.
@Pte Bloggins Ah... I actually enjoyed the previous Gears games. I like this one as well, but would just like to see some traditions return when the next installment releases.
Also, I'm not so sure if you spend "half" the time looking for them. You don't have to be in that store for very long if you know what you're doing. Besides, you're the COG. You're meant to help people out.
Dude. Thank you. It felt like I was the ONLY ONE not liking the just "GEARS 5" title.
You’re not alone
Same here coalition was being stupid
Pa-seudo? You're pronouncing words wrong on purpose now, aren't you?
Also "Krey-ken".
And "pa-duke" instead of "pa-dik"
Being a huge car nerd and selling auto parts for a living… hearing you reference the other games as common engine components is absolutely golden.
The next game will be called Camshaft 6.
Anyone else remember the save Carmine contest in preparations for Gears 3? I kinda got that vibe from the decision. It’s more a test to see who they will kill off going forward.
so basically his voice is so monotone i want to die faster than lizzie did in the campaign
He’s trying to be the guy from the “daily dose of internet”
I honestly thought they were gonna kill off Clayton Carmine but no, they killed off his niece who didn't even get to establish her character. And her death sucked worse than the Carmine in Gears 2 where he was being eaten alive by those bugs whereas she was just killed in an explosion
Dom Huerta we only got to know her for one Chapter but still Waifu material has come from shorter moments with fiction ladies lol.
Anthony Carmine wasn't given much characterization and yet when he was killed off I bet you it shocked everyone
@@Duality2222-2 Marcus doesn't even react to it. Tbh, the first Gears was kind of a mess
@@elijahvelasco8963 marcus wasn't shown in that scene and something you gotta know when your a soldier is when you get too emotional it throws you off your game you and more of your friends will die. So his reaction was reasonable
@@Duality2222-2 He says something later on in Gears 5 through a collectible but it was a pretty short cutscene in general. Soldiers aren't always machines but the scene makes some sense in that they are being attacked, I'll give you that.
The only thing that really shocked me is to find how locust were actually made. Fun fact: In the trailer Marcus' beard was shaved and now it isn't. I would have actually liked it more if he actually shaved
I actually liked the beard. All that stubble didn't look too good to me
I would have hadded 100 sins for the pointless "who will you save" choice.
It's stupid, out of nowhere and completely irrelevant since the sequel will choose one of those 2 options as the canonical one.
Francesco not really. It'll just determine who will most likely be your partner throughout the campaign of the next game
Unless the new game opens with the other one dying.
This whole campaign is irrelevant, cause they put Kait as the MC.
I reckon it would be like wolfenstein 2 started, where it let you choose between wyatt and fergus
@@lonewolf9578 hopefully more like mass effect
I actually forgot about all of these characters except Marcus Baird Cole and carmine. So forgettable.
The story makes no sense to
"JD's actions which involved firing a laser.. blah blah... were rewarded with a promotion" is actually pretty consistent with the COG as an authoritarian regime.
11:45 I had a solid laugh at that, haha.
That was all too real a sin 🤣
The "Settlement 2" thing didn't actually just crop up out of nowhere. It was referenced several times in Gears 4.
Does it suggest that the beginning part is a prequel to Gears of war 4? Cause i dont think that makes much sense
@@theemeraldking3251 no
“A haircut and a beard doesn’t exactly speak the language of emotional turmoil.”
A particular brother begs to differ… I.M.O.
is that some sort of max payne reference
@@animeiphone8510 im guessing he is talking about dom in 3
The picture given at 3:53 pretty much sums up the entire series.
Priceless.
Pr0man Pretty much.
I see, middle finger
Really love gears 5 but everything you said is what I have said also my biggest thing being JD should of been court marshaled like marcus was in the original 3 game at most marcus influence and anya being a past first ministers should of got him removed from the army unlike marcus who was meant to be sent to death but adams influence got him prison time instead
Pretty sure anya was dead long before JD joined the army.
@@reggieloaiza2285 yeah she was but since she was a first minister that would give him points since jin looked up to her as is said in the game saying that though thats probably the reason he wasnt court marshaled. Could of explain the first part alittle better tho
Bad Meets Evil 197 My guess was JD just volunteered for the Army.
@@druchii_or_death1642 could be
They didn't actually leave Reyna's body connected to the hive. The novel that bridges the gap between the end of 4 and 5 apparently describes them burying her body and sealing the grave. However how she's brought "back to life" and has Myrrah's consciousness.. that's obviously fuzzy.
Probably the swarm having an temporary alpha general like in the fourth game and they found Reyna body and reconnected her.
Also don't forget the swarm is like a hive mind with every single locust having their subconscious connected so Myrrah to og locust queen could have had the sams
Nope doesn't count, we don't insist players read novels to plug holes in the games story, that's piss poor writing
@@trahapace150 True that you shouldn't have to read a novel to understand it but the writing was decent. Hell, even Gears 1 did that. Sorry for the asshole comment
@@elijahvelasco8963 Guy isn’t being an asshole smart one, he’s just stating a fact, if you have to read something outside of the game to understand parts of the plot then that indeed is just shitty writing.
At least Dartigan understands that Del had to die.
I am awaiting that Grand Theft Auto sins video. You always bring quality content.
Well, he was just banking the footage right now for a future video when the releases are slow, so while an EWW San Andreas video is likely coming, it'll probably be at least a short while.
San Andreas and 5 propably will be the longest. GTA 4 is awsome imo then SA , VC , VCS
@@SKY11211213 i disagree, i found GTA4 boring made worse that with most of the missions have a car chase, i wouldn't mind this if driving in 4 wasn't bad
I went into this thinking I wouldn't agree with any of the sins. Turns out I only disagree with the majority of them.
Sundown Native the game is still awesome in my opinion
@Manek Iridius And it's not even Winter yet. Bravo.
They did explain that the Hammer of Dawn rockets they used were old prototypes so of course they’d need extra steps to use
When you realize Epic games owns the original 3 gears
They don't. Microsoft owns the IP.
@@x3aExPHEONIX that literally made no sense to what he was saying. Epic games produced the first 3 gears games therfore making them and therfore owning them. Microsoft only have the rights to use the games, the first 3 are still epic games project
IAmFusion having the rights to something is the same as owning it, it’s only on Xbox because Microsoft owns it, if epic owned it it would be on pc, they just developed it
@@lonewolf9578 i never said that epic owned the whole franchise I said that epic developed the 1st 3 games and have the rights to them because THEY produced them. But yeah tbf about that xbox thing you are right
Yeah.. You didn't finish the sentence...
8:43 Could have put the Queen's dna in the system so she can come back of she ever decided to return. Based on AI Niles later dialogue, it doesn't sound like he was opposed to what Myrrha was doing. And he tried to continue her work by tricking Kait into resurrecting Rena using the Matriarch's psychic powers, so he seems more likely taking part in it. We also hear that Kait's grandfather worked for Niles, so he'd probably also leave clearance linked to his DNA as well.
Your trying too hard to rationalize shit writing
@@trahapace150 He's probably not trying too hard, maybe the slightest of reaching but no. It's not his fault for that to not be explained in the story
Oil Filter 1, Clutch 2, Spark Plug 4....Ive never laughed so hard!
Best part of my day is when I see you've posted
Why after watching this video I feel the need to do routine maintenance in my vehicle
No sin removal for. “It’s fhaz right?”
Uh,yes sir.
I really like all your videos, your commentary is always correct and always funny!!
break pad 5 had me in tears, glad I found this gem
Gotta question why they switched protagonists TWICE in this new trilogy. Kinda kills investment in the new MC when you switch protagonists twice especially when the reason breaks the show don't tell rule.
I think I would like to see astral chain next
Can’t wait for Boiler Pipeline 6
Just you wait for Improvised Dildo 7!!
I'm surprised you haven't sinned Control yet, I've heard there's a lot wrong with it, like good boss fights being the sidequests
I liked this video and overall how it turned out. This was fun.
You know you're early to watch a video when its highest quality is 360p
Yup
Ye
Sin 54: the wind flares are the result of the environment changing after all the imulstion was destroyed in gears 3, so that weather didnt exist and wouldnt have been a problem when it was built
They did bury Reyna in the comics,after kait killed her, delta squad had a proper funeral for her but the swarm found where her body was and took it
If they can just take back a dead body and use it as a new queen, why didn't they take the first queen's body? That thing was still in tact and just left behind.
The swarm didn't appear till like 15 years after gears 3, body was probably too decomposed and myraahs conscience was in the hive mind, so they just needed a body that was connected, plus after the pulse went out, the tower was destroyed I think
@@tylerstrickland9679 then why take Reyna and NOT kill her, if a human body that myraah can inhabit was always an option?
Had to be one thats connected to the hive, hence why during gears 5 kait is connected to it, same ordeal, the body has to be connected to the hive, and as reyna was dead and her body was still intact, they could just twist reynas mind in the hive or put myraahs mind in it
Great video Dart
The walls were built around the COG settlement's while the Locust's were crystallized and presumed dead. I doubt they were worried about subterranean threats at the time.
As far as i can remember, those walls were made for protecting the city from the storms.
Ya' know, like when you are shown how they work in GoW 4 but who can play the prequel when you can sin a sequel and complain why they don't explain stuff. xd
Summed up pretty well as always. I vote Astral Chain next, but both should be done eventually.
Video Game: *exist*
This man: *SIN*
0:31 They probably didn’t want to bring her on this mission at first, but considering the headaches that Kait gets at certain moments of the game and they go away quickly and don’t persist, that’s probably why Kait decided to go on this mission with Delta.
Great video as always. Also Code Vein.
I'll vote for Astral Chain... but only if you add on a sin for each scoop of ice cream lost to the motion control mini game.
Dartigan is my spirit animal.
Super stoked that the voice of Deckard Cain and half of Skyrim is still the voice of Carmine.
welcome back
I would love to see astral chain
Surprised he didn't notice the Qwerty keyboard in First Minister Jinn's office. Like how is technology so outdated lol
That's cool i can gauge the playtime by the time of you sins video
Can you do a game sins for "DAYMARE: 1998" please?
Another excellent video as always. I vote for Code Vein.
I enjoyed the running past games joke
17:23 unless you're talking about pads that destroy something, the pads that slow down and stop a vehicle are spelled "brake"
When Marcus invaded New Hope, he wasn't looking for the same answers that Kait was, and they didn't try and download all the information that was there. He sent her there because he was thinking that they might be able to find more information than he had.
No one had anyway of knowing that the network kept any form Myyrah or Reyna alive after they were both stabbed. Not even Kait could have predicted that, and their options for getting Reyna out of the gunk were pretty limited at the end of Gears 4.
The name changed from Gear of War to Gears, almost entirely because fans referred to the series as the Gears series, because they understood what the "of war" part was about but didn't feel the need to constantly say it since everyone already got it.
Marcus couldn't possibly know that Reyna and Kait were related to Myyrah, and had no way of knowing that the information Kait and Del would uncover would lead them back to a lab in a similar location to the lab he already visited.
Niles A.I. is clearly able to get modern information from the outside world. That may seem far-fetched, but this is the Gears were talking about, it is by no means the most out there plot point of the series, some of which you haven't talked about in the past.
Despite the fact that one city looks like it's doing fairly well for itself, they are still recovering from an apocalyptic event caused by the grubs in the first three games. I doubt the chain of command is handled the same way it would be in our world which hasn't suffered one. Just a thought. This is also enforced by the idea that their enemies often use COG weapons, something they didn't used to do, because resources are lower than a normal sustained society would be, even though a war is still going on.
Not every single enemy tunnels through the ground in Gears of War 4 or 5, or any of the previous Gears. In fact in this game fewer enemies are seen doing it than any previous in terms of numbers. It's almost like they are smart enough to know that using the same strategy that cost them the war 25 years ago is sort of a dried of well that they should rarely come back to, so the wall helps, at least a lot more than not having it.
JD lacked character depth in Gears 4, him trying to prove himself by doing what the COG wants in order to try and become someone as famous as Marcus, and to get the recognition he so desperately wants from him, is totally something he would do.
JD is promoted and sent out on a lot of missions because those in charge of the COG see a person they can manipulate who's trying to prove himself, and it works both ways because they can also get a known rebel, like how he is in the start of the game, under their control. It's classic manipulation, and as far as anyone can tell, it works.
Whether or not the Swarm can see the convoy is irrelevant, because destroying humanity is their goal, taking out a hour or two, or you know, shooting at the convoy between the houses will work for them. Either they kill the convoy, or if they fail, they destroyed the homes where some of the people they want to kill live, making it harder for society to rebound. It's a win/win for them either way.
They refer to Oscars places as "the last holdout" and say that "multiple people have been there before to try and recruit them" of course they know that Oscar is alive. They made that very clear. Just because you skipped the part where they said that, doesn't mean you have a point, or a sin right there.
By the way, before people get mad, I do this on some of Dartigan's videos partially as a joke, but also because I hate the fact that he makes up sins based on forgetting lore as it's convenient for the length of his videos, which speaking of, this one is pretty short and has a low sin counter, which kind of proves the point that it is a good game. Don't take it too seriously though. This took me 10 minutes to write, which is also a point I like to make, because making a sins video is easy when you just find the smallest thing to poke and prod at, only to get about half of them wrong.
Apart from the JD/Del choice and abrupt ending I enjoyed the game and am having a lot of fun with multiplayer. Thanks for pointing out inaccurate sins.
@@Maesterful I didn't care for the choice either, wish they just did something in-cutscene rather than making us choose. While I agree about the abrupt ending thing, it's hardly something new for the series. Just kinda a 'Gears' staple at this point. But yeah, good on some one for taking the time to type out a post like that. The points addressed in the post were some of the things I was saying while watching the video.
If I had the plan to create a game, I would force my developers to watch all your videos.
Sin for Dartigan: "Markus"
I can see it isn’t maxed out graphically is that for effect?
BTW, the settlement walls were to protect from windflares, If you played close attention to/played gears of war 4, you would've known.
Spark plug 4, oil filter one, my god😂😂😂 I found that so funny
Transmission 5, gear shift 5, alternator 5, axle 5, muffle 5,
astral chain or code vein why not both?
Damn itt is a little harsh... But that last line got me somehow
At 5:20 you say this was just “introduced” out of no where, but the drama with settlement 2 started in gears 4, and this was finally letting us know what happened, so no..it wasn’t out of nowhere
Did you know that wwe and Hollywood star Dave Batista aka Batista is bonus content for this game
"Pseudo" is not pronounced "be-sudo". First the constant mispronunciation of "homage" and now this. I'm starting to think you're trolling.
and "kraken" being pronounced "kray-ken"
He is without a single doubt trolling
Get fucking trolled lmao
17:01 this pronunciation of Paduk
Oscar was found alive in the novel, "Gears of War: Ascendance" set in between 4 and 5.
That’s the problem, you shouldn’t have to read a book to understand the story of a game.
@@basedpota Ong i love these games but they aren’t good enough to make me want to read a book.The core gameplay is shoot at the monsters talk for a minute then rinse and repeat till the credits role
@@basedpota he does show up alive in the gears 4 ending
@@negan991 Yes but it was never confirmed that the other gears knew he was alive, hence why it was sinned that the kait and del knew that he was alive
@@Outcastsage9033 well there was a time slip between the 2 games so...
The Oscar one was explained in a book m8
Is the lighting really this bad or was that a setting you toggled? I don't remember it being this bright and unshaded
"Passenger side window crank 5"
3:46 Case-in-point: That's what it seems they tried to do in the first Bay Transformers.
Great video. Pants game series.
The desert used to be a shipyard and a tropical area
Astral Chain should be next.. it looks nice but can be sinned like hell
You are absolutely right about some things you say and a little to cynical about other points
God damn I'm excited for DOOM Eternal
So how is it? Just finished it today on Ultra Violence, and gonna play it again but this time Nightmare.
Astral Chain!
I just got done with this game and really enjoyed it! It was long as hell and I got the motivation to play it like once every 3 weeks but overall it was good.
The Cole Train is the eternal meme
First the game is stuck in the past for being the same, than it's having an identity crisis for trying something different. Which is it?
This channel is pretty stupid. Dude is just nitpicking what he doesn't like, way more than even cinemasins does
@DarkSonic180 um no. Cinemasins gets most of its charm by trying to point out objective mistakes to be sinnable. They nitpick but largely stick to faults we can visually see. This guy is predominantly just spouting out a list of things he subjectively didn't like. If he wants to do that he should just turn this into a review site
Both
It doesn't push the 3rd person cover shooter genre further, and instead they just made a level thats an open world for the sake of it.
IT'S ABOUT TIME
"figured it would rain anti-freeze"
Clearly you forget Razor Hail from Gears 2
So the shadows are a little fucked on your graphical settings, which may be causing the character models to be looking alot off . Or it might just be two separate issues
6:49
im not sure how real military would react to this, but im guessing he got promoted to captain since despite causing a gear's death he was willing to risk himself to save everyone else by making the hammer target near him since he had to go near locust to do it
Man with all the bad rocket science bits you were pointing out, I was sure you were going to multiply some of those sins by like 50 or 100 times each. But no, you just left them at a single sin. I...am unsure how I feel about that.
They found him in a comic book
I’ve always found that games start being shit when they try to make it too serious and professional. They forget to have fun while making it
Putting this on bookmark because I realize I never even played Gears 4 or watched (if you made one) a Gears 4 vid.
Haha same..
