@firefang600 also, in general, I'm team letting the Fenix family live on. I consider mainline Gears of War the story of the Fenix family. Similar to how mainline Star Wars is the story of the Skywalker family (granted, I don't consider the sequel trilogy Canon personally lolz)
Even just looking at the quality of each death and the outcome. It seems like they put more work into dels death than JD’s. And narratively fits better. A way to bring Marcus and his son together. Both losing their brother
Not only would Dels death bring Marcus and JD closer together but i believe it would bring JD and Kait closer together in their relationship aswell as we saw during Gears 5 their relationship was quite strained and Del was very neutral in the group
Yeah but JD staying dead adds some tragic and gritty realism touch to it. In real like you don’t always find closure. Ppl you have a strained relationship with don’t always live long enough (or you) for things to be “fixed”. It is extremely messed up tho cuz Marcus would yet again be suffering. It’s almost like his “thing” at this point. Lost his mom,best friend (Doms brother), father, Tai, Maria, Dom, father (again), and then finally his wife so it’s heartbreaking that he’d also have to lose his son but fits his tragic life :(
@@hoemie2587 that is true but it wouldn't be a true loss to the player because we've played as both JD and Kait now it's always been Del by our side no matter what he's always been the one backing us up as Dom was with Marcus like a true brother to the end
I think whomever dies should be a boss fight in Gears 6. They could be half human/half swarm and they're aware they're trying to kill you and they are talking/apologising to you during the fight. Also hope they don't kill off Marcus, as the face of the franchise I don't see how they can give him a death worthy that fans could get on board with. Finally after gears 6 I'd like to see a pendulum wars trilogy.
Something tells me that Marcus might not make it in Gears 6. If that’s the case, I hope he goes out fast like Dom and not like his dad where he dies slowly in front of his son. That’s too cruel.
My theory is that JD lives and Del dies simply bc Marcus shouldn't lose his last and only family member he has left for 1, and 2 bc in gears 5 the lil boot camp into thing u play as Del for gathering combative data for the DeeBees basically mean in gears 6 the Deebees would Run, Mantel, Shoot, Knife ect just like Del, and also bc Del was with Kait throughout the story being there for her basically through thick and thin and that would make his death more sad and memorable. That personally what i think it may sound dumb but its the best i came up with lol.
I actually wanna see the Deebee's doing that, it would make them a lot more better at fighting since in Gears 4 and 5 they just stand there, getting shot lol
I have played GOW 1-5 and I enjoy them very much. If there is going to be a new Gears game, I would like to see a prequal type of when Marcus was younger and a grunt recruit. Also, the game should focus on the origins of the Locus. Another suggestion, let Marcus' and the other crew members kids finish where their parents left off and show a new generation of Locus or a new breed of enemy.
They should let both of them survive, that whole ending should have been a nightmare of kait like how she had a nightmare in the beginning of the campaign.
I just hope we get to go back to jd as a main character, i like kate but jd has more growth and development to go through, and i prefer him to both del and kait ever since playing as him in 4
@@LilMissSmartyPants.922 ya well if del is gone, it will have to be marcus Kait and fahz for the squad.So she will likely be usable in coop along with the others And a new jack robot possibly
Id like to see them do a game back in the pendulum wars or maybe one that has us play as Marcus and Dom but its the event's leading to Marcus being put in prison
Del is literally just a better character and we have a Marcus that wants revenge in the story if his son dies. That drastically changes how you can write the game. No way would I kill Del.
That's the reason why I had JD killed cause then for Gears 6 they can make Marcus the main protagonist with Kait and Del as the co-op characters and Marcus just goes on a rampage to save the world but also ultimately meets his demise, it in my opinion would make an amazing story
I want to see Kates story wrapped up in the first half of the game. I would love to see the devs take a direction that none of us would expect. Maybe, after a final battle with the current enemy types, we get an outside alien invasion. Idk.
Kait story isn't getting wrapped up anytime soon its only just beginning, timeline wise we have only experienced 8 months into the new Gears of War story across Gears of War 4, Gears of War Ascendance, Gears 5, Gears of War Bloodlines & the Gears 5 Hivebusters DLC, it is likely the Swarm War is going to go on for 20-30+ years and we haven't finished the first year yet. There have been several references to Gears of War Universe Solar system & more recently mention of Space Exploration technology being developed so its likely in the far far future once the Swarm War ends and maybe the Locust are defeated for good that a soft reboot can take place set hundreds of years into the future where Humanity either left or abandoned Sera to explore Seras two moons or nearby Planet Risea which ofcourse could introduce all new enemy faction
In my opinion JD should be the one to stay dead cause then they can make Marcus the main protagonist and basically make him like Dom where he has nothing left to lose ans just goes on a rampage to save the world and succeeds but also ultimately meets his demise. It would make for a great story i think
They better let Marcus go out hard him and delta have got to make a statement with their deaths dom made an example and i have a feeling its coming next game the end of delta.
I understand everything you've said in this video but I still think it sucks that it was Del that died. However the only way I would appreciate that to be canon is if it could serve JD to evolve as a character. Cause to my point of view in Gears5 he was just execrable mean and stupid maybe his friend death will wake him up and make him more humain, than his father's death in gear 6 or 7 would polish his transformation.
@@ginmil3436 That’s fine I can handle him dying at the ripe old age of whatever but the man needs a break 💀 they did him dirty by offing Anya not to even mention it was off screen
I saved JD and I don't want to see Marcus in pain again and I want to see JD and Kait as a couple. (In my opinion, I have the impression that the company chose Del vivo).
That last choice was the worst they could have done in Gears 5. Both characters were great and now we have to continue without one. Could have saved it for the 3rd game.
I actually would prefer if JD is the survivor myself. I want to play the 1st 4 games, but skip 5. Probably will skip 6 as well if Kait is really set on being the protagonist on that game (I don't play games that force you to play as a female [Final Fantasy X Part 2 & Horizon Dawn, same thing]). But, if JD or Marcus become the next protagonist of a future game of either 6 or a future 7, 8, etc., etc, I'll play one of those as well.
Did Disney write Gears 5? It's the same story as Rey being Palpatine granddaughter. Kait is the granddaughter of queen Myra. It's the same story.... wonder who got ripped off?
If she saves JD, I will not longer play gears of war… that’s not canon or realistic at all… When your parent is in trouble it should be instinct to save them… PERIOD…
They did not write del’s story good at all in 5 and I don’t want him to come back at all because JD’s story is way better and Marcus has lost way to much
I mean, with all that modern games are capable of, you could absolutely have an alternate story with both characters and in the beginning it asks you who lived then the campaign starts. Some alternate dialog conversations would be pretty simple but impactful so your decision would actually matter.
Kill jd , create a story of Kate and del surviving. I only say jd bcus there’s no way he can carry the story… atleast del and Kate has some sort of chemistry which can build upon creating a new team
It'd be exciting to see a presentation of a new male character as the protagonist and write his story for the future of the franchise. The character model we saw in the UE5 demo could definitely fill the role, with a memorable squad by his side.
If The Coalition was staffed by smart people, they’d open Gears 6 with the reveal that Kait had been taken and the Choice part of Gears 5 happened entirely in her head with it being her hallucinated and delusional interpretation of JD and Del trying to save her. In reality, JD and Del are both alive and the protagonists of Gears 6. You know. IF The Coalition had smart people working for them. What’s probably going to happen is they’re going to triple down on all of Gears 5’s bad choices while trying to force a MW3 (2023) style campaign down our throats with this “more open world focus” we’ve been hearing rumbles about. Oh well.
If it still revovles around kate this is going nowhere zero development zero struggle so very dull im playing for multiplayer and hopfully horde/beast mode
@@NikosM112 yh they can make it so he jumped out the side of the apc and survived the explosion. For me gears died after 3 then became completely buried after gears 5. 4 being the last playable semi decent game
@@ZaZi-Zeta01 i wouldnt mind if they just removed gears 4 and 5 and carried on from 3 dom becomes locust king then marcus kills dom and marcus dies from fighting dom and gears ends

I also like the fact that they said they will always have empty plot wholes filled pretty much as long as there is a story there to tell
Either pull a Wolfenstein and make it our choice it should be JD. He still has a story to tell, and Marcus shouldn't lose his last family member.
Yeah Marcus has been through enough that's why I let jd live
@firefang600 also, in general, I'm team letting the Fenix family live on. I consider mainline Gears of War the story of the Fenix family. Similar to how mainline Star Wars is the story of the Skywalker family (granted, I don't consider the sequel trilogy Canon personally lolz)
none of them have a story to tell... Marcus has... especially with Anya and Pendulum Wars
@@Underp4ntz_Gaming_Channel I'd argue JD still has an interesting redemption arc to continue on.
I was thinking the same thing
Even just looking at the quality of each death and the outcome. It seems like they put more work into dels death than JD’s. And narratively fits better. A way to bring Marcus and his son together. Both losing their brother
Not sure what you're talking about, tbh. Marcus' reaction to his son's death was straight up heart wrenching.

They really should be going the Wolfenstein route. Letting one person you saved in the last game be chosen to stay for the sequel.
That's what I was going to say! 😂
Nah. Gears has an extended universe, Wolfenstein doesn’t
it’s already confirmed by Rod that there’s a canon choice. The “choice” was just a gimmick
Nooooo
@@dblundz What's the canon choice?
I think whomever dies should be a boss fight in Gears 6. They could be half human/half swarm and they're aware they're trying to kill you and they are talking/apologising to you during the fight.

Finally after gears 6 I'd like to see a pendulum wars trilogy.
No. Wouldn’t make sense at all to fight Del/JD
This is basically what happens in Wolfenstein: The New Order
Gears 6 should be a father and son story. It should also be a 2 player co-op and should be the Fenix, period.
i'd prefer 4 player co-op, cause arcade mode was fun as hell with the modifiers.
@@Blazenovdefinitely be awesome to have 4 player campaign again.
You want it to be a father and son story because you don’t want JD to die… Weird when you play almost the whole game partnered with Del…
@@imartinist Secondary character Vs. Main Character
@Reformed-Mann Kait is the main character what are you talking about? And it’s not main character, it’s “focused character.”
Something tells me that Marcus might not make it in Gears 6. If that’s the case, I hope he goes out fast like Dom and not like his dad where he dies slowly in front of his son. That’s too cruel.
It’s so ironic hearing the words from rod “if there’s a gears 6” like he’s not one of the reasons gears got shelved lmao
I have a strong feeling our boy marcus ain’t gonna survive the next instalment of gears
Tbh I'm surprised he survived in 4 AND 5. Considering his story ended in 3.
I don't mind, he lived a full life. Let an old solider/hero have a warriors death. Hopefully he has a son still alive to keep his linage.
If they give Marcus a TLOU2 Joel or Suicide Squad Batman I'D be absolutely furious and I'm not even a Gears player.
Shut up @@spiral8003

@@ShadowNova300 Bloody autocorrect
Hey man, another fantastic video. I personally have always believed Jd lived. But I'm definitely open to exploring more of Del's story
There must always be Fenix to protect Sera.
They should let both of them survive, that whole ending should have been a nightmare of kait like how she had a nightmare in the beginning of the campaign.
In my opinion we should finish Kait's story but instead of save file make us make the difficult decision again and make two different story lines
If JD dies Murcus should be the main character for gears 6.... or Del.
I just hope we get to go back to jd as a main character, i like kate but jd has more growth and development to go through, and i prefer him to both del and kait ever since playing as him in 4
as long as we can co-op as Kait
@@LilMissSmartyPants.922 ya well if del is gone, it will have to be marcus Kait and fahz for the squad.So she will likely be usable in coop along with the others
And a new jack robot possibly
It felt like the writers really wanted the player to not like JD. Either to make the choice at the end harder or to make Kait more likable.
Clearly that backfired lol
I wouldn't care if they killed Kait in the first 30 seconds of gears 6. Couldn't stand her or Del in 5
Id like to see them do a game back in the pendulum wars or maybe one that has us play as Marcus and Dom but its the event's leading to Marcus being put in prison
I think the one you killed will come back as a Swarm Boss in Gears 6
that would be sick
Swarm king 🎯 and Marcus should have to kill his son the swarm king 👑
you just made me want to play gears 5 story for the 7th time
I think they should let you choose in gears 6 have defrint stories depending if jd or del
Bro your videos are so good i hope you reach 100k subs❤️
JD was supposed to be alive so m makes sense like dom's sacrifice
Great vid Lee, excited for gears 6 now more than ever ❤
Gears was a solid ride, like the name says it, this series is all the gears working together to have peformed beautifuly.

I agree make jd the new locust king
Yes!
Glad they had the intellect to keep JD alive. Del was awesome in 4 and a douche in 5.
Great news, beers and gears later to celebrate 🍾
I thought he was corny in 4 and he improved a lot in 5
I choose to save jd because if you are understanding, I’m not letting Marcus lose another person is life

Do Something Crazy Have The Option To Import Your Ending Saves So Del Can Live or JD

They just need to sell it back to epic and bring it back to its roots. Also bring back gears 4 escalation and multi.
