@@adelinahernandez748 you seem pretty stupid yourself, you have no idea how smart they actually are because if they were dumb humanity would have won the war from the get go.
The whole Locust Processing still has me disturbed a bit for some reason despite playing this game for ten years. Prisoners being hooked onto hooked-chains, being whipped by spikes. Then those coffins they put captured humans in... It got me a bit horrified to hear all those poor souls groaning in agony within those things, in the Act where you search for Maria in Gears 2.
@@Aristocratic13 Yeah, it's insane. The Locust even dismember human body parts and feed them to Blood Mounts. Hell, they also make maps or scrolls out of Human skin (like Jeepers Creepers kind of shit).
I like how Tai was seen as this unstoppable beast, a force of nature that seemed to survive everything. Then after he loses to Skorge, we see him for the last time as this broken, tortured being who groaning in pain and can’t even speak coherently. It’s really brutal and shows how some things are worse than death.
reminds me of what Marcus said when visiting the memorial in Landown, looking at the graves of the Pendulum Wars soldiers "sure could use those men now"
I always been playing as Tai since Gears of War 2. I didn't buy Gears of War 5 until I knew Tai would be in it. That how much I respect him. I even bought Shadows of Raam just to play as Tai on Gears 3.
Just shows how powerful skorge really is. Tai maybe just one man, but Tai was like a locust berserker. I always wondered why Tai committed suicide. Just is crazy.
They need to make a Gears of War Pendulum Wars: Battle of Aspho Fields. Play as Tai, Marcus, Dom, and Mike Hairs and others. This game would be badass even bringing back Hammer of Dawn!
1:16 how the hell do the UIR lose to the locust with that type of army makes you think that they may have killed a good big majority of the locust before they decided to focus all locust forces on COG land
The UIR were defeated by the COG, and only 2 years later, Eday happened, and since the war had cost so much destruction, the COG were not ready to fight an enemy, who were far worse....
The only issue I have with Tai story. It’s so short in terms of his time in the game. I feel Tai should of showed up in the hollow instead of originally in the game. Because it felt like he been tortured for only hours in game. While, hours can mean a lot. You’d think it take days for him to break this badly.
We may say that they are extinct, but as a comic book C5-46 mentions that: "the Krill have a similar or different variation of themselves". In GOW 1 we only see one type of The Krill, but there are maybe other hives, swarm, or abomination living throughout the undergrounds of Planet Sera.
+Niels Bohr you gotta remember those tunnels are filled with water now. I wonder how low did their seas get? Anyways, there are two more rift worms but we heard nothing else about them
They are alive just low numbers cuz there main breeding grounds got destroyed by the Lightmass bomb so only the ones that adapt naturally to behavior change survived
"the spirit and body sacred, but the second the spirit is gone, it's nothing and you can pretty much do anything with it, because it's nothing without the spirit" Sounds like Jeffery Dahmer defending himself in court LMAO Edit: imagine what Maria went through. Fuck.
Dont talk about Maria she looked messed up and looking like she is already long dead doms bullet ended the suffering and thats where dom died and in gears 3 he died even further broken hearted
Then their is the barricade a nightmare fuel demonic creature hellbent on destroying humanity he is so horrifying that even the locust and lambent didn't want to mess with him.
Brothers in arms, they sought to save the horde and were constantly saving each other against the Lambent, almost makes you wish there could be a locust cantered Gears game
The Immortal Super Being Raam seems to be a tank so he has the durability and strength advantage. But Scourge is def the faster and more versatile of a fighter.
It made me so mad and sad I was furious and I pictured my self as if this was real life and that humanity had to fight to survive and seeing such amazing strong characters getting killed made me mad and emotional in general because he was just so strong that I wouldn’t expect for him to kill him self and I also made me mad because I just can’t imagine what they did to such a strong character for him just to be broken😢
This comic pissed me off so bad. Not cause it’s bad by any means. But in the sense of how much it made me hate the Locust and how evil/crazy they were. To take such a great/powerful character. Just made his death in gears 2 hit so much harder.
My mind is noticing when he was found in locust hive with a punched out tooth then somehow a shotgun was used on his own head, without revealing the holder of the gun. Also he has superstrength without armor or genetic engineering they gave to other cog soldiers with an even BIGGER physique. It's the clique that came to claim him I guess that lead to a non life. Uncorrupted island man with no ties to corporate government agenda and he cares for spirits of other beings? That was your character to actually make a difference for future non violent breakthroughs because it's the plight of the brown natives being a person OF the world, not brought or ordered to it for expansionist profit.
That's fucking sad that feeling when your body wants to die and your soul feels trapped poor tai amazing soldier wish he died in a better way no this what he went through I wouldn't put my worse enemy into I rather shoot the bastard than torture somone to the point there body is beyound broken beyoujd repair
But wait so does that mean Marcus is stronger then tai because he beat skorge either way it doesn’t matter rip my mans tai I literally came back to this game to beat it on insane and I did.
Too_Easy528 Marcus had Dom even though the AI Dom didn’t do shit. And maybe the circumstances were different cause we didn’t see much. Coulda dropped his chainsaw or drones came to help
The locus were smart
They saw how unstoppable his body was
So they went to break his brain
baird said that the locust torture anyone they capture. it’s nothing about acknowledging him or his strength. but because they’re sadistic.
@@swollentomatoes OK I think it's metaphorical
That is bullshit locust are dumb

Skorge started that torture process. Before that they would lobotomize and prison them in coffins

Michael Oquendo I know right
And I damn know when they lobotomized Them they didn't put them to sleep or use doctor tools

This story is so dark.
Yes it is but that is war for u
Brian Achim it’s crazy good too
That's how maori culture died. British come massacre them then the rest are conscripted into suicide units for the british during ww1 and ww2
Thank you. You have finally answered that question for since I've playing Gears of War 2 came out.
I'll give you your 100th like brother
@@craigblackman5736 thank you.
I’ll give your 130th
Yeah me too I was wonder what happened
Loved everything about Tai RIP. His words of wisdom added a nice touch to the dark atmosphere of the games
reminds me of what Marcus said when visiting the memorial in Landown, looking at the graves of the Pendulum Wars soldiers "sure could use those men now"
Tai's death really haunted me for years
Same it made me sad and mad and mostly shocked 😢
I always been playing as Tai since Gears of War 2. I didn't buy Gears of War 5 until I knew Tai would be in it. That how much I respect him. I even bought Shadows of Raam just to play as Tai on Gears 3.
Same here
Tai was my favorite character in Gears of War 2...much respect! RIP
Best Gears of War Channel years of entertainment love coming back to these older vids.
Weird how Ben has Anthony's helmet in the comic version of the Gears 2 scenes lol
The comics aren't always consistent.
@@brianachim2670 yea in the first time Ben is shown he has Anthony's helmet and when Tai commits suicide he has his signature helmet again
Just shows how powerful skorge really is. Tai maybe just one man, but Tai was like a locust berserker. I always wondered why Tai committed suicide. Just is crazy.
Yikes
If your a tai user on gears 3 try the tribal lancer with the bloody shotgun and go for dances with death medal R.I.P. tai
lauren reeves nice
😭😭😭😭😭thanks this helps so much they don’t sell the comics here where I stay so thanks all my questions have been answered
They need to make a Gears of War Pendulum Wars: Battle of Aspho Fields. Play as Tai, Marcus, Dom, and Mike Hairs and others. This game would be badass even bringing back Hammer of Dawn!
We kinda got a taste of the Pendulum Wars in the prologue in GOW 4.
I remember getting so hooked on the OG Gears series. Like from this point on I personally dedicated every kill in the campaign for him
Michael Diaz Tai was better than this
@@ravennismommy1957 huh?
He didn’t deserve death he was awesome
Since they had been using humans to transform them into locust imagine they transformed tai, a locust tai with crazy locust strength and tai skills
Tai was my absolute favorite growing up. This game was honestly my whole childhood
I think a Gears of War TV show could have potential to be one of the best things ever made
Don’t ask for it now man. They would fuck it up.
Rest in piece Tai
Oh ok, I always wondered why his eyes looked like that when he came out the cell. Apparently it’s because his spirit was already gone
Know I now how tai was in the comics
1:16 how the hell do the UIR lose to the locust with that type of army makes you think that they may have killed a good big majority of the locust before they decided to focus all locust forces on COG land

Angry Depressed man *6 weeks
It’s honestly chilling how you can see the Locust’s torture methods and they did a majority of that on Tai
Amazing edits loving these keep it up man..
Tai was a awesome character and I actually have this comic. Really cool, I'm always interested in Gears of Wars stories
I know I’m not the only one who wants to see the after math of his body when he released his soul from its prison
Tai killing himself really got to me, it made me realize just how bad the war was taking it till of the last of these people.
He didn’t need to die like that
I agree that people needs to see how bad things were getting, that someone as hardened as tai would go as far as to end his life to escape hell
The only issue I have with Tai story. It’s so short in terms of his time in the game. I feel Tai should of showed up in the hollow instead of originally in the game. Because it felt like he been tortured for only hours in game. While, hours can mean a lot. You’d think it take days for him to break this badly.
He was a badass it is a shame that he is dead and he will be miss
I wonder if The Krill are still alive.
they went extinct after the light mass bombing during gears 1
They’re gone there’s a reason why you don’t see them in any other gears game. Just like this guy said ☝🏻they’re extinct.
We may say that they are extinct, but as a comic book C5-46 mentions that: "the Krill have a similar or different variation of themselves". In GOW 1 we only see one type of The Krill, but there are maybe other hives, swarm, or abomination living throughout the undergrounds of Planet Sera.

They are alive just low numbers cuz there main breeding grounds got destroyed by the Lightmass bomb so only the ones that adapt naturally to behavior change survived
Yknow at that point, the locust destroyed someone who had a good belief on the soul vs body and that’s insane to think about
Alot of people don't get that the UIR is the equivalent of America, with Tai being equivalent of a Vietnamese
I taught the Cog was the equivalent of America?
Hey me
@@glensmith7689 cog is actually more like ussr
I honestly thought The UIR is more like the USSR and the COG as the UN
Tai for the few shots in the comics actually got some good ones in.
Soothe was naturally stronger so it’s unfair , but tai made sure he left his mark
This is the only question I’ve had for years thank h

Dont talk about Maria she looked messed up and looking like she is already long dead doms bullet ended the suffering and thats where dom died and in gears 3 he died even further broken hearted
Is it bad that I named my youngest son after tai?
Hell no it's awesome. I want to name my son Dom if I ever have one.
Heyyyy I was named Dom after fast and furious....philipe is just the TH-cam account
@@philipegonzalaz3890 never come to the Netherlands if I were you. Dom means stupid in dutch hahaha And RAAM means window in dutch.
No. But I wouldn’t tell him who you named him after just in case he doesn’t like it. How old is he?
Tai isn’t a bad name but cmon dude...it’s a fucking video game character😭😭😭
Damn even turok was in gears of War.
The only thing for me that I find odd is how he breaks in a matter hours like that
I’m sure there was more torturing
Till this day I still held my tears for you tie
Tai*
Completely changed how two felt with one she'll let you know it's halftime and we're losing
R.I.P. TAI
Even though I didn't read the book I still love it keep doing what you're doing
Then their is the barricade a nightmare fuel demonic creature hellbent on destroying humanity he is so horrifying that even the locust and lambent didn't want to mess with him.
2:23 is it a little weird he has a scar before the slab?
I would love to see SCOURGE VS RAAM.
They were actually good friends in the comic. Skorge saves him twice technically
Brothers in arms, they sought to save the horde and were constantly saving each other against the Lambent, almost makes you wish there could be a locust cantered Gears game
@@hardiltakhar380 I would love to play as The Locust.
The Immortal Super Being Raam seems to be a tank so he has the durability and strength advantage. But Scourge is def the faster and more versatile of a fighter.
Tai: you can’t kill me
The whole of gears of war 2 is dramatic impact Tai, Maria, Benjamin, just so sad
It made me so mad and sad I was furious and I pictured my self as if this was real life and that humanity had to fight to survive and seeing such amazing strong characters getting killed made me mad and emotional in general because he was just so strong that I wouldn’t expect for him to kill him self and I also made me mad because I just can’t imagine what they did to such a strong character for him just to be broken😢
How did Marcus overpower scourge?
Didn't Tai have his COG tag on him? I don't see it.
Locust took it
@@jonathanoxlade4252 No Marcus did remember?
rip tai he was a badass
Why does marcus have a scar? Didn't he get it in prison?
Bit by a dog in prison actually. You can hear more info in my lore video about his time in the slab
Yess more good content
Coming back watching these all again! Where can I buy the story from where ur reading this from?
Amazon is where I bought them :)
Honestly I'd like to see a Pendulum Wars game after Gears 6 since Gears 6 is the end of the main saga
I always wonderd about him now i know err dangg
Is there any comics that takes place before gears 3
May his soul rest with the other
tai is one of my favorite characters in gears may you RIP tai
How long was tai in the coffin I swear it was like no time at all
he was such a badass
Tai was an awesome warrior. Made his people proud.
Do u think Tai in his prime could of defeating Scorge?
skorge was just to fast and to strong idk that's a really hard one tho
Tai was Savage
Very interesting! Subscribed to you. Do you perhaps know more about lore on locust before E-day?
Tai saved dizzy man, damn...
Wait how many months or years is has been between gears 1 & gears 2
We all love Tia rip brother
He was my frickin favorite
2:51 we are gonna win this fuckin war
Baricade the intro is scary ppl be watching this at night no offensense just scars me sometime
I just found your TH-cam and I love it
Tai Kaliso was a good man..
Is there any lore on Rojas ?
There's not much, he had two brothers, a wife and a 2 year old son. It's on the wiki.
What happened to his eyes
they blinded him
Love it!
The locust queen is just a 6 year old getting angry at humanity for no reason. But the game what great tho.
Where can I get all the comics for gear of war?
Amazon
Thankyou! I love these episodes

Great video, Man. Keep up the fine work 👊🏻.

Why tai why not just random cogs

what are you even talking about lmao.
I've been playing science the first game
Poor Tai.
Great Video.
What if tai stayed alive that would be cool but his soul was ready to leave
His soul already left. Just the body wasn’t following so he made it by shooting himself.
That's fucking sad that feeling when your body wants to die and your soul feels trapped poor tai amazing soldier wish he died in a better way no this what he went through I wouldn't put my worse enemy into I rather shoot the bastard than torture somone to the point there body is beyound broken beyoujd repair
But wait so does that mean Marcus is stronger then tai because he beat skorge either way it doesn’t matter rip my mans tai I literally came back to this game to beat it on insane and I did.
Too_Easy528 Marcus had Dom even though the AI Dom didn’t do shit. And maybe the circumstances were different cause we didn’t see much. Coulda dropped his chainsaw or drones came to help
He also cut the chainsaw in half so it took away the extra torque and power that allowed him to take on two people at once
Marcus has plot armor though
R.i.p tai
Tai Got killed off too Early😭😠😢
Don't get why Anthony carmine is there instead of Benjamin
Helmet mistake
😂😂😂awww. Loved the video hated that they killed him.
So what happened to Dizzy?
He turns up in Gears 3
