Gears of War Judgment didn't deserve the hate. Sure the game wasn't similar in fashion to the original trilogy, but it opened the door to many fun possible directions for the franchise to evolve and become greater. Not to mention, it was a completely faithful developed Gears of War game, unlike the Sequel trilogy games (Gears of War 4 and Gears 5) in my opinion.
You deserve more credit and attention for your work my friend, almost every last word you said in this video was great because I believed the same way. I thought gears judgment was a great game and showed how our characters became the people who loved. I played almost every last gears game and I can you that judgment is not a bad game, I had a lot of fun especially seeing new enemies and new characters that were great in my opinion. I love how they showed us that cole was awesome in the beginning, he finishing the cog and needed to see what war does to you. I truly believe that judgment should get a second chance and be loved as a gears game for what it tired to be different. Keep doing a awesome job dude even if your channel is small, I know your gonna be noticed by some people who will love your content
@@itisendtimes1689 first off chill out you hateful little shit. Second if they did increase speed in 3 its hardly noticeable. 3 ppl still shotgun blitz in gear 1 2 and ultimate. It wasnt brought in in 3 its always been a thing and why i dont play mutiplayer in gears. Last time i played mutiplayer was gears 3 beta.
I remember forcing my dad to take me into Tesco at 2 in the morning to buy this game, we absolutely loved it and we finished it in one sitting that night, it was one of the last games I played with my dad and it will forever be special to me
That's amazing, I remember watching my sister play them growing up and then playing them myself when I got older. I'm currently doing a complete timeline run with my other sister.
To be honest I had no problem with the Campaign aside from the fact that the AI on Insanity can get you killed faster than the Locust does. However at times you can strategically plan around situations where you can use the enemies tactics against them, like on the Declassified mission where a bunch of Ragers with the breachshot try to swarm you,you can plug up on or two of the E-holes and set up the turret with a good line of sight to piss them off to force them to transform and then use the Sawed-Off when they get close and you have the ammo box that refills that on the left side for later.
I really enjoyed the game, probably more so than 2 and 3 to be honest. I only really got into the mulitplayer of the first game so I'm judging it by the campaign.
Yeah but the amount of retcons in the game made it bad like the chainsaw existence in the game time that they can get away with if they said after few years after E-day instead of few weeks and the kantus appearance too and even the new enemy the rager they said they extinct and then they appeared in gears 3 time in the aftermath story
It was definitely meh. Baird and Cole were way too serious and acted nothing like their original selves (or older selves in this scenario cuz it’s a prequel). Karn was a complete joke
My main complaint against was how they limited your weapon you can carry. I hated how instead of 3 guns, 2 main and a sidearm, you can only 2 at all times. And I couldn’t get used to pushing Y to switch weapons, preferred the d pad .
Maybe they should have kept the D-Pad system but make it faster. When I play Judgement and then GoW 1, 2 or 3 the first change I spot is: "Damn, Baird equiped the Fast Hands perk."
@@Nolongerhereanymore In Overrun you could play as the Locust, the Grenadiers were an option. But I agree there should have been more Locust characters, they could have added some more over time as DLC but Epic was done with the franchise and Cliffy B left so there wasn't any motivation for the rest of Epic and People Can Fly to continue to support the game.
@@Nolongerhereanymore In terms of their designs and appearance. Yeah, I liked them. In terms of character, I prefer the original, much scarier, dirty, and more intimidating
One of my favorite moments from Judgement was when the Onyx Guard interrupted the judgement and respectfully recommended postponing it to fight the Locust and his very clear hesitation and anger when he was told “Then it’s a short walk” I love that you can tell every emotion that Onyx guard felt even though he had a helmet on covering his face.
Intrasting you make the halo comparison, i think geares has a few homages to halo, like the lamambet to the flood, the locust lambet war simmilar to the great schisim in halo 2. And gears hand halo 3 end with a super weapon being activated.
@@wolflord8117 your drawing far off conclusions though the halo rings are far more deadly then the light mass missles the flood is far more dangerous then the lambent since its the inulsion mutating living organisms to protect itself whereas the flood wants ultimate knowledge above all and the way between the locust and lambent as opposed to the schism was the elites finally rebelling after centuries of being slaves to the prophets but the lambent was a organic living being that feared its own destruction since it was used as a fuel source so it decided to fight back instead.
I enjoyed the campaign for this game but the problem lied in the changes to multiplayer. When you have something that’s been core to the multiplayer for 3 games such as DBNO state, 4 starting weapons and the Locust characters, it feels more natural and right to have that and it wasn’t a smart move to change that aspect. It just didn’t feel the same. I still think Overrun was one of the best game modes they have developed though and I want that to return. I don’t hate the game, I just wish they didn’t change what was core to the previous instalments in multiplayer. The multiplayer died so quick and even a few days after it’s release in March 2013, the numbers were higher on GOW 3. If they didn’t change the multiplayer mechanics and included Locust characters within other multiplayer modes besides Overrun, I guarantee the game woulda got better reception.
Really loved the campaign and some game modes. And I have to say the game had more inspiration/style, and more love put in the development than Gears 4 and 5. Remember the trailers of Gears 1? and 2? it was amazing that whas it's selling point.
Yeah, true. The way they continued Gears in the way that they did is really sad. tomorrow never came for them. Judgement, though, is just a very flawed but fun game whose story doesn't even matter (Coalition's End is confirmed canon) On the other hand...E-Day. like oh my god my mind has been blown for so many reasons. really can't wait for it.
I love this game, but I didn't hear any of the complaints here that I heard back when. People had problems with; -The lack of playable Locust in the standard multiplayer -The removal of Horde Mode -The change in control scheme -The nickel-&-diming with all the cosmetic DLC -The focus on aesthetics like Armor & Weapon skins -The lack of playable characters. -The small-scale feel compared to Gears of War 3 -Cole not quite looking right (this also goes for Baird a bit) -And my complain about the characters' personality/dialogue writing feeling a tad off. I personally Loved this game. It's fast and franetic with that arcadey kinda feel. Constant action and a cool story, althoug Karn had 0 personality and realistically no relevance aside from being the "face" of the opposing Locust force. And I get it; 1 was Raam, 2 was Skorge, and 3 was Mirrah. 4 faltered by only having the Speaker, but like Karn it's better than nothing I guess.
i agree with you i think this guy missed the mark a bit. the whacky colors are not a gears of war thing who the hell wants to run around with a blue skeleton on their back it’s just not gears. the game was okay at best. could’ve been better if there wasn’t all that stupid ass glowy shit, the original gameplay mechanics, and i guess you’d say original gears of war feeling maps, and of course no locust. to me this game felt like it tried to be call of duty. (story aside)
This game explains in great detail why Marcus knows who Baird is in the first game. Everyone knows the guy who disobeyed a direct order and fired a light mass missile on the city they were trying to protect. Granted Lumous was right and the COG did have a reason to save that missile which we see in gears 1 and 2 didn't work. Hell light mass tech never works, like it didn't even kill Karn just softened him up...
Judgements overrun mode was the best thing about the game. Kind of unbelievable that they never brought it back. Back in the day it was the only reason I’d ever play a gears multiplayer.
I didn't mind the game campaign it was decent it had some lore breaks lancer and kantus being there 30 days after e-day instead of 1 year for the lancer and 14 years for the kantus makes sense for gameplay but for the deeper lore no sense at all. The pvp really sucked that was everyone's main issue and it shows.
Yeah. Canonically, the Lancer Mark II doesn't exist until about two or three years After Emergence, but Judgement takes place, what, nine months A.E.? I use the Retro Lancer whenever I can because of that.
@@dmruggabugga6270 I actually would have liked it if they removed the Mark II entirely or presented it as an experimental weapon, and armed you with the Mark I Lancer to start. It would have really put you in the shoes of an early war Gear. The post-Hammer strike war is explored by the novels written by Karen Traviss-if you haven't read them do so, they're amazing-but the war before the Hammer strikes is often neglected entirely. Judgement was a good concept, great story, poor execution.
@@primalpistol exactly, kids sell well. "who cares who your target audience is if it makes money?" was probably epic games's philosophy. but i agree, fortnite started this stupid ass battle royal era that we're in now*, and the coalition has taken everything we loved about gears and wokenized it. none of it wouldve happened if epic didnt sell gears. *i am aware that there were other battle royals before fortnite, but to the general public, fortnite made it popular so it takes the blame.
Yea, I've never thought of Loomis as the MAIN antagonist. He was an antagonist on my list but just in the courtroom. Yet, this is years after I've played the game. But it's not one I would call a bad game. Just a game that I didn't understand in terms of Lore.
Gears of War judgment is a weird game for me because there's a lot of stuff I like it and a lot of stuff I hate in it I'm still say it's the worst gears game in my opinion but there's still a some of stuff I like in it I like overrun I like the campaign but all the other modes where just not fun I really hated that decision of humans vs humans this isn't Halo guys Gears of War but that's just my opinion
This game was intense at times,they seemed to have tweeked the Locust "AI" to be more aggressive and I"ve never had to fight off so many enemies in such a short time before in a Gears game
@@absolution6191 nah, i finished in insane, and there are 2 parts where there were so many ennemies you would think that (challenges on), when you're at the door of the academy after passing through the canalisations, and the patt where they were at the 30 day celebration of the end of the pendulums war and when a horde of ragers come at you
I'm playing Gears 2 and 3 again (I beat the hell out of the first one, completed the campaign a million time on every version, on 360, PC and Ultimate on Xbone, that's way i'm not playing it again). I want more of the original story (not the garbage of Gears 4 and 5) but now, after this video I'm going to include Judgment, I played the whole campaign just once when It came out and some multiplayer but I didn't like it, I was so hype but I was expecting the same formula of the first one. So thanks! I enjoyed the video and like the title said, I was wrong, I didn't get it at the time! For me Gears still have the potential to become a big franchise again!
The real war changing aspect that Baird and his squad did on Judgment wasn't using the lightmass missile to destroy Karn but it was saving Marcus back at the Museum, it was almost, for us who already played Gears of War from 1 to 3 and knew the end of the story, a feeling of "John Connor must be protected" from the Terminator franchise without the characters even know it. 20:18 That might be one of my favorite Marcus' moments right there, the sarcasticaly and always angry way he says "well, tell him good luck with that!!" is just so on point that cracks me up everytime I play Judgment's campaign😂😂
Yeah i digged judgement, just beat it on insane - it's fun but I wasn't a terribly big fan of it's narrative , it's levels and dialogue felt cut short and half of what's said wasn't really all that gripping whereas in gears 1, 2 and 3 you're clinging to each syllable
The Coalition completely disgraced Paduk in Gears 5. He was a witty and respectable character in Judgement, they made him into just another crazy Russian in Gears 5... absolutely pathetic.
I really enjoyed the campaign. Even from what I can remember I enjoyed the multiplayer. Never understood the hate. Judgement is kinda like Halo Reach, last game made by the publisher, doing a prequel, and experimenting with new and different concepts while going back to the roots of the series. Unfortunately both weren't appreciated in their own time
But they didn't keep true to the lore, the campaign takes place right after e day so they shouldn't have Lancers with the chainsaw bayonet, that gets created a year after e day. Baird and Cole joined the cog about a few weeks after e day, they were never in halo bay and also Baird wasn't an officer. All the novels where published way before judgement so NO they didn't stay true to the"fiction". Every other gears game made many good references to the books but I don't know what they were doing with this game. I did like some parts of judgement like overrun and it did improve on things but some of the story didn't make sense and it also breaks some of the lore. With the new game gears 5 I believe that's gotten way too much hate and it's far better than judgement and even 4. Anyway I'm still debating whether I'll play this game when I go back to play through all the games and read the books again.
Judgement took place months after e day that explains how cole and baird are already well established in the cog and lancer is just a staple of the franchise , removing it would clearly take away part of what gears of war , its better to go off the game for most lore since its where the franchise originated from
Lol 5 is shit dude. I’m playing now after hitting masters on rank tdm. The campaign is nothing but fetch quests like in a stale rpg. Having to ride on a skiff nonstop is just a time waster.. I’ll take judgment and 4 over 5 any day.
Honestly, this game hard a solid story and good PvE, but I'm a multiplayer player. This game played more like call of duty with wall bouncing rather then gears. No locust in multiplayer, you only spawn with one gun and a snub, the melee broke the gun play, the gnashed was inconsistent, this I just some of the things that ruined the game for me.
I think too, that they missed a lot holes in this game. How Baird is consider to get an promotion in Gears of War 1 if Coronel Loomis said that Baird is no longer more lietnaunt, its a private and that means a private for ever..
So I can understand if you paid 60.00 dollars for this game and being mad but if you have all the dlc Maps and Charcters (which you can buy all Dlc charcters on the stor except jungle Tai) it’s pretty fun and cool and I’ve always liked the game especially Aftermath.
Good vid, although I think a lot of your comments are subjective. I recently did all the Gears games on the hardest settings and Judgment on Insane with all the modifier things was the hardest for me- absolutely brutal. The controls did feel simplified but it looked gorgeous and hey theres nothing wrong with trying some new stuff in a kind of spinoff game...
I definitely agree that gears judgement didn't deserve the hate and gears of war judgement in my opinion was the best gears game plus it was me and my family first gears of war game that we bought and we didn't know about the other gears games until later on.
I respect your opinion but i disagree it deserved its criticisms and hate. gears of war judgement is disappointing and was the start of the downfall of gears of war. I dont like the story structure how most of it is told through past situations in court,the villain Karn is underused and a watered down locust boss compared to Raam and skorge. The story isnt that interesting either and the game has a lack of content and bad multiplayer no horde either. Hated overrun and survival they were crappy replacements boring. I prefer the other horde mode playing as who you want and just surviving. The Aftermath campaign was great tho much better than judgement campaign. I think raams shadow did a better job at a gears prequel and different cast than what gears judgment tried. Coming from gears 3 which was my favorite one to judgement was a huge downgrade.
Multiplayer and gameplay were bad really bad, why tf they change the way we choose our weapons or that your not able to have two long weapons and a pistol, thats pretty stupid. Also the multiplayer is shit and I dont know who the fuck say lets take out horde mode and put that other shit i dont even remember de name. But man the campaign, the characters, the skins were real good I love all campiagns and judgement has a great one.
tbh i really liked judgement, but i never played the multiplayer. i also saw that gears 5 took it's worst ideas (like the b button being execute) from judgement.
Nah, we just didn’t like judgment because of the change of controls, gameplay(for example: asymmetric maps, humans vs humans) and lack of content (maps, characters) all of that coming from the multiplayer, which is where we spend most of our time, after beating the campaign. The story wasn’t the best, but it was interesting to know a little bit more about the lore of the gears universe, but it was just that: interesting. Also I understand (correct me if I’m wrong) that the game was rushed by Microsoft, that’s why Epic collaborated with People can Fly. Overall, judgment was a pretty interesting game, almost felt as an experiment, but an experiment that didn’t highlight.
THIS game isn't bad or the multiplayer I know humans against humans in gears of war 3 all the locust they all died so judgement had to come up with a new story line humans vs humans
Gears of war judgment was a great game. It started off to a horrible start (mutiplayer wise), but sadly, by the time epic fixed all of the issues like lack of maps, two-piece, shitty shotgun, not spawning with both primarys, everyone spawning with grenades that stick to opponents, etc most people had already went back to gow3. Also, it always bothered me how the gamemode overrun was seemingly forgotten. It was arguably the best edition to gears of war period, and was super fun. Not to mention, the campaign is my favorite of any gears, right next to Gow2. Still to this day my favorite gears game. Gowj is also the gears that brought us FFA to begin with.
Campaign was spot on. The challenges were odd, different, but interesting and fun. Only thing I dislike was how they handles controls for changing weapons and grenades. Paduk is great. One of my favorite characters. Was quite happy to see his return in Gears 5.
I think the Gears games shouldn’t have continued the story after 3, but release different kinds of Gears games in different periods of the Locust and maybe Lambent War. If people (including myself) weren’t as critical and syndical and gave the game a more open mind then perhaps the Gears franchise would be much different than it is now. For better or for worse is up to interpretation, but I do believe we wouldn’t have gotten a game like *Gears 5* if we hadn’t discouraged them. The fact RAAM’s Shadow was a better game than Gears 5 is just sad, a DLC outdid a full feature game. I hope we get another Judgement, it’s better than anything the Coalition has made thats for sure.
Yeah plus they improved on the gameplay mechanics where now the sawed off has 2 shots instead of 1 and you can use the Lancer while using a human shield and when you use boomshields which I loved and I'm glad it got into the 4th and 5th game
I will defend Gears of War Judgement as a good game. Could it have been better? Of course. Is it still fun and engaging to play? I certainly think so. It deserved better. I love how experimental it was with its gameplay compared with previous games in the series, and I like how it explored the history of the Pendulum War more thoroughly and how the Coalition is very flawed/ corrput
It was better if you imagined judgment was a gears 3 DLC but on a separate disc. That’s how I got enjoyment out of it cause it had a bunch of gow3 content and feel, just not installed into the gow3 game. If overrun, FFA and the campaign (along with the customization) were added into 3, it would’ve actually made 3 the best game ever! But besides that… how can you discuss all that and not even mention the one biggest thing that upset fans… the removal of locust as PvP enemies? That and the quick swap system (that only allowed 2 weapons and a nade instead of 3 & a nade) that dumbed down the action so much, it just didn’t “feel” like a gears PvP. That was enough to make parts of the game not feel like a gears game anymore…. And you completely glossed over that when saying you didn’t understand how ppl said this didn’t feel like a gears game. It seems you understand just fine but intentionally didn’t address it. Idk why you chose to do that but that’s what made the game suffer the most. Sure some didn’t like the verticality (which I loved) as well, but it had hints of great gears content sprinkled throughout all modes in the game… but it also sprinkled enough changes throughout everything that took away from the “feel” of gears, and coming off gow3…. It was enough to taint the entire experience. I appreciate the game for what it is, but some of the smallest, basic changes made to streamline the action (red vs blue, no DBNO, no PvP active reloads) and make weapon access faster (quick swap) along with the wild customization took away just enough to make it feel like a “silly” version of a gears game. I thought the PvP maps were some of the best yet, but that can’t save PvP when it changes the most radically than ever before. It was a good game (miles better than gears 4/5), but again, if you view it as a dlc for 3 on a different disc altogether, it’s easier to swallow. On its own, too many changes took place to make it feel in line with the trilogy before it. THAT is why it didn’t land or resonate well with most players.
I remember finding the weapon load out and button layout to be weird but I never HATED Judgement. I saw it as a new approach they wanted to test and I wanted to see if they would continue it or not in the next installment. I can't wait until the new game. 🎉 E-Day!
I always loved Judgement Since when it came out Till this day I really don't understand the hate but I won't judge for I understand that everyone has different opinions But me personally, I love the game, still do and will continue loving it
I hope Mauler Elites return and come to "E-Day," to the Campaign and Beast, Horde and Overrun Modes. I'd also like to be able to spin the Boomshield like how the Boomer Elites can as a human.
Always liked this one thought it was a cool spin on the formula with the whole investigation system and the new characters were great especially loomis my fav one. Never really understood the hate that those neckbeard fedora reddit mods shilled on the internet against this game.
Tried playing it again recently and honestly, the only thing that I don't like and stops me playing is the more arcade feel and the control changes. If they had just added a control option setting to bring back the d-pad weapon change I'd probably stand by it more.
The Only People hating on this game are a bunch of 30 year olds that have nothing in life i loved this game alot it really tied up the lore i was looking for its s really good single player game Gears was never a multi-player game so seeing so many complain about the multi-player its insane like just go play Halo or Cod ya little whiny babies this gama Is Great and you can say otherwise
The multiplayer was probably it's weakest point, the campaign was pretty good and overrun while neat and a good idea with potential was not enough to carry the game. I do like the art style and outfit design feels more tacticool but keeping true to gears style Overall id put it in the gears collection with 1 2 and 3 if they'd ever release one
Game looks beautiful, More european than earlier Gears ,giving a different view of how civilization on Sera looked like. Campaign could have had an arcade mode like gow 3 had, it would have been a great addition. Survival and overrun were interesting new modes. Versus would have been great for a battle royale Gears style Game, but ppl were too much into GoW3 versus and it just didn't work out. It was no doubt the fastest Gears. I didn't like the idea of weird customization, rainbows or fucsia onyx? What the heck..Well, it's worst seeying some dumb emojis in new Gears. The best of Jugdgement: Paduk.
GOW 1,2,3 & Judgement will always have a special place in my heart. I just wish Judgement was a little longer! I loved that they included UIR, I think it would be cool to see more content from their perspective.
Eshert0_o Thoughts very similar dear viewer, "Judgment" was just the tip of the iceberg for so many different worlds to play in for Gears of War going forward.
I always said that Judgement was a great game if it wasn’t a Gears title. The content was solid but the gameplay(which is the most important part of a game) was really just not it. Not being able to have a gnasher AND lancer also changing how nades were thrown plus no down but not out, it just wasn’t a Gears game fundamentally. That was why I disliked it as a Gears game but I played it a decent amount. It still has my favorite customization/progression to this day(minus tactics ofc) and I want the Booshka and Breechshot to return especially with emphasis on Escalation. Also wouldn’t mind a return to maps with more difference in elevation, the maps were okay.
I actually loved this game when it came out, inly thing i didn’t like was cog vs cog but it was fine, gears 3 was better tho and this was the first time the next gears wasn’t better then the last. And now it just keeps on getting worse at least with the story on gears 4 n 5
Ive been playing through the whole series for the first time on game pass and I really liked judgement. The stars in the missions scratch my completionist itch...
Gears of War Judgment didn't deserve the hate. Sure the game wasn't similar in fashion to the original trilogy, but it opened the door to many fun possible directions for the franchise to evolve and become greater.

However at times you can strategically plan around situations where you can use the enemies tactics against them, like on the Declassified mission where a bunch of Ragers with the breachshot try to swarm you,you can plug up on or two of the E-holes and set up the turret with a good line of sight to piss them off to force them to transform and then use the Sawed-Off when they get close and you have the ammo box that refills that on the left side for later.
GOW Judgment is a great game. Screw the dumb critics!!!!!!
While playing Gears 5 because it's free, I would pay a lot of money for a remastered Judgment on PC.
gears of war judgement wasn't like 123 but man is sure is far better than 4,5 i appreciate this game even more now
Me and my brother play Survival to this day. In my opinion its a better Gamemode than Hoarde.
People can say what they want, I remember Judgement as one of my fav Gears of War games! And Paduk is on of my top 3 best characters.
Honestly that’s fine that’s your opinion and that’s good you like it
I really enjoyed the game, probably more so than 2 and 3 to be honest. I only really got into the mulitplayer of the first game so I'm judging it by the campaign.
The campaign was really good, it was nice to see some UIR representation in the gears games
Yeah but the amount of retcons in the game made it bad like the chainsaw existence in the game time that they can get away with if they said after few years after E-day instead of few weeks and the kantus appearance too and even the new enemy the rager they said they extinct and then they appeared in gears 3 time in the aftermath story
@@meemoo5047 Yea, some plot holes. But it was a nice game to enjoy.
And bonus gow3 part was great
Campaign was short and boss battle sucked
@@SoulWarriorSF but it randomly generated new enemies in the old location each time you replayed the game
To be fair, many of us just didn't like the multiplayer and stuff, but the campaign is solid if ya ask me.
Even then, the loose ends left open. I'd say it was meh.
It was definitely meh. Baird and Cole were way too serious and acted nothing like their original selves (or older selves in this scenario cuz it’s a prequel). Karn was a complete joke
Yes
Yh I feel this way too. I enjoyed the campaign. Not as much as previous gears, but still enjoyed it. However yes the multi-player was garbage
Except the final boss and Baird and cole are not the same people at all really but this is before they were at war for years so makes some sense
My main complaint against was how they limited your weapon you can carry. I hated how instead of 3 guns, 2 main and a sidearm, you can only 2 at all times. And I couldn’t get used to pushing Y to switch weapons, preferred the d pad .
Maybe they should have kept the D-Pad system but make it faster. When I play Judgement and then GoW 1, 2 or 3 the first change I spot is:
"Damn, Baird equiped the Fast Hands perk."
I think this is my personal main gripe with the game too. Otherwise I'd be playing it a lot more.
exactly
The campaign was pretty damn good it's just the multiplier was bad
The Savior Of The Locust Horde
I wouldn't call the multiplayer bad but more of "lacking" in comparison to the previous two Gears of War Epic games.
You couldn't play as the drones grenadiers and Therons
@@Nolongerhereanymore
In Overrun you could play as the Locust, the Grenadiers were an option.

Do you like the remastered Locust
In gears 1 UE
@@Nolongerhereanymore In terms of their designs and appearance. Yeah, I liked them. In terms of character, I prefer the original, much scarier, dirty, and more intimidating
One of my favorite moments from Judgement was when the Onyx Guard interrupted the judgement and respectfully recommended postponing it to fight the Locust and his very clear hesitation and anger when he was told “Then it’s a short walk” I love that you can tell every emotion that Onyx guard felt even though he had a helmet on covering his face.
I was just on that part. He's like: "this idiot."
You can pick up his COG tags which tell you he died almost immediatly after shutting the door behind him.
Judgments greatest sin was the hugely lacking amount of content and post support.

I concur.
Judgement feels like the halo 3 odst of gears of war. It's short, has a great story, things changed and the multi-player is okay.
Yeah it always felt like the halo reach of gears of war as well for me
@@InSayNayTay0137 So.
A good game?
Cuz the ODST analogy was spot on.
@@InSayNayTay0137 Reach is a great Halo game definitely better than 4 and 5.
Intrasting you make the halo comparison, i think geares has a few homages to halo, like the lamambet to the flood, the locust lambet war simmilar to the great schisim in halo 2. And gears hand halo 3 end with a super weapon being activated.
@@wolflord8117 your drawing far off conclusions though the halo rings are far more deadly then the light mass missles the flood is far more dangerous then the lambent since its the inulsion mutating living organisms to protect itself whereas the flood wants ultimate knowledge above all and the way between the locust and lambent as opposed to the schism was the elites finally rebelling after centuries of being slaves to the prophets but the lambent was a organic living being that feared its own destruction since it was used as a fuel source so it decided to fight back instead.
I enjoyed the campaign for this game but the problem lied in the changes to multiplayer. When you have something that’s been core to the multiplayer for 3 games such as DBNO state, 4 starting weapons and the Locust characters, it feels more natural and right to have that and it wasn’t a smart move to change that aspect. It just didn’t feel the same. I still think Overrun was one of the best game modes they have developed though and I want that to return. I don’t hate the game, I just wish they didn’t change what was core to the previous instalments in multiplayer. The multiplayer died so quick and even a few days after it’s release in March 2013, the numbers were higher on GOW 3. If they didn’t change the multiplayer mechanics and included Locust characters within other multiplayer modes besides Overrun, I guarantee the game woulda got better reception.
Really tripping over 1 weapon. And it’s 3 weapons and grenade vs 2 weapons and a grenade
Really loved the campaign and some game modes. And I have to say the game had more inspiration/style, and more love put in the development than Gears 4 and 5. Remember the trailers of Gears 1? and 2? it was amazing that whas it's selling point.
It’s still better than gears 4-5
Yeah, true. The way they continued Gears in the way that they did is really sad. tomorrow never came for them.
Judgement, though, is just a very flawed but fun game whose story doesn't even matter (Coalition's End is confirmed canon)
On the other hand...E-Day. like oh my god my mind has been blown for so many reasons. really can't wait for it.
Gears judgement > Gears 5
I love this game, but I didn't hear any of the complaints here that I heard back when. People had problems with;
-The lack of playable Locust in the standard multiplayer
-The removal of Horde Mode
-The change in control scheme
-The nickel-&-diming with all the cosmetic DLC
-The focus on aesthetics like Armor & Weapon skins
-The lack of playable characters.
-The small-scale feel compared to Gears of War 3
-Cole not quite looking right (this also goes for Baird a bit)
-And my complain about the characters' personality/dialogue writing feeling a tad off.
I personally Loved this game. It's fast and franetic with that arcadey kinda feel. Constant action and a cool story, althoug Karn had 0 personality and realistically no relevance aside from being the "face" of the opposing Locust force. And I get it; 1 was Raam, 2 was Skorge, and 3 was Mirrah. 4 faltered by only having the Speaker, but like Karn it's better than nothing I guess.
i agree with you i think this guy missed the mark a bit. the whacky colors are not a gears of war thing who the hell wants to run around with a blue skeleton on their back it’s just not gears. the game was okay at best. could’ve been better if there wasn’t all that stupid ass glowy shit, the original gameplay mechanics, and i guess you’d say original gears of war feeling maps, and of course no locust. to me this game felt like it tried to be call of duty. (story aside)
Indeed, it’s one of my least favorites but it definitely left me a soft spot for it.
@@Dres2000 HOW DID YOU FIND ME HERE!?
This game explains in great detail why Marcus knows who Baird is in the first game. Everyone knows the guy who disobeyed a direct order and fired a light mass missile on the city they were trying to protect. Granted Lumous was right and the COG did have a reason to save that missile which we see in gears 1 and 2 didn't work. Hell light mass tech never works, like it didn't even kill Karn just softened him up...
Judgements overrun mode was the best thing about the game. Kind of unbelievable that they never brought it back. Back in the day it was the only reason I’d ever play a gears multiplayer.
I didn't mind the game campaign it was decent it had some lore breaks lancer and kantus being there 30 days after e-day instead of 1 year for the lancer and 14 years for the kantus makes sense for gameplay but for the deeper lore no sense at all. The pvp really sucked that was everyone's main issue and it shows.
Yeah. Canonically, the Lancer Mark II doesn't exist until about two or three years After Emergence, but Judgement takes place, what, nine months A.E.? I use the Retro Lancer whenever I can because of that.
@@PhoenixT70 the lancer was made a year after e day and judgement takes place one month after e day shown in the trailers for judgement.
@@dmruggabugga6270 Okay, my numbers are off. Thanks for the correction. My point stands, though.
@@PhoenixT70 yeah it sure does and i agree heavily all they needed to do was set the game a year after e day.
@@dmruggabugga6270 I actually would have liked it if they removed the Mark II entirely or presented it as an experimental weapon, and armed you with the Mark I Lancer to start. It would have really put you in the shoes of an early war Gear. The post-Hammer strike war is explored by the novels written by Karen Traviss-if you haven't read them do so, they're amazing-but the war before the Hammer strikes is often neglected entirely. Judgement was a good concept, great story, poor execution.
Im am so glad that somebody likes Gears Judgment.Come to think of it Gears Tactics feels just like judgment just in turn base form.
El Judgment es la polla con cebolla. 😍👌
I also like judgement
Man epic should have never started Fortnite they should have continued in this game

@@primalpistol exactly, kids sell well. "who cares who your target audience is if it makes money?" was probably epic games's philosophy. but i agree, fortnite started this stupid ass battle royal era that we're in now*, and the coalition has taken everything we loved about gears and wokenized it. none of it wouldve happened if epic didnt sell gears.
*i am aware that there were other battle royals before fortnite, but to the general public, fortnite made it popular so it takes the blame.
Stupendous Video Brother!! I agree with your points, especially Loomis being the antagonist and the player base not understanding the Game itself.
TheGearsProdigy
Thank You Comrade, well you know what they say, "People Hate what they don't Understand".
Yea, I've never thought of Loomis as the MAIN antagonist. He was an antagonist on my list but just in the courtroom. Yet, this is years after I've played the game. But it's not one I would call a bad game. Just a game that I didn't understand in terms of Lore.
I only miss the breach-shot from this game, nothing else
Oh yeah.... 🤤🤤🤤
What about the "Mazra"? The Breech shot had to be reloaded for each shot and it had a 4 shot mag plus iron sights

"Why I was still not wrong about Gears of War Judgement"
Gears of War judgment is a weird game for me because there's a lot of stuff I like it and a lot of stuff I hate in it I'm still say it's the worst gears game in my opinion but there's still a some of stuff I like in it I like overrun I like the campaign but all the other modes where just not fun I really hated that decision of humans vs humans this isn't Halo guys Gears of War but that's just my opinion
This game was intense at times,they seemed to have tweeked the Locust "AI" to be more aggressive and I"ve never had to fight off so many enemies in such a short time before in a Gears game
Yeah, at some point in insane, i was like: WHEN IS THIS SUPPOSED TO END. And i still enjoyed it
@@titanus261I feel like there are some sections where the ai just infinitely spawns until you move forward.
@@absolution6191 nah, i finished in insane, and there are 2 parts where there were so many ennemies you would think that (challenges on), when you're at the door of the academy after passing through the canalisations, and the patt where they were at the 30 day celebration of the end of the pendulums war and when a horde of ragers come at you
Just beat it today for the first time, and after playing gears 4 and 5, what a masterpiece judgment is!
yeah after 4 and 5 Ive changed my opinion too.
@@georged5420 sounds similar to halo 4 and 5 then Saints row 4 and 5/reboot
I'm playing Gears 2 and 3 again (I beat the hell out of the first one, completed the campaign a million time on every version, on 360, PC and Ultimate on Xbone, that's way i'm not playing it again). I want more of the original story (not the garbage of Gears 4 and 5) but now, after this video I'm going to include Judgment, I played the whole campaign just once when It came out and some multiplayer but I didn't like it, I was so hype but I was expecting the same formula of the first one. So thanks! I enjoyed the video and like the title said, I was wrong, I didn't get it at the time!
For me Gears still have the potential to become a big franchise again!
The real war changing aspect that Baird and his squad did on Judgment wasn't using the lightmass missile to destroy Karn but it was saving Marcus back at the Museum, it was almost, for us who already played Gears of War from 1 to 3 and knew the end of the story, a feeling of "John Connor must be protected" from the Terminator franchise without the characters even know it.
20:18 That might be one of my favorite Marcus' moments right there, the sarcasticaly and always angry way he says "well, tell him good luck with that!!" is just so on point that cracks me up everytime I play Judgment's campaign😂😂
The only gears with 4 player co-op.
And Gears 3. Oops
@@VegitoBlackityBlack yeah i was about to say
@@Shape07-0 😅
That name is fricking hillarious also im from the future to tell gears 6 has 4 player coop!!!
@@jetstreamsamsung1753 whats it's release date?
Yeah i digged judgement, just beat it on insane - it's fun but I wasn't a terribly big fan of it's narrative , it's levels and dialogue felt cut short and half of what's said wasn't really all that gripping whereas in gears 1, 2 and 3 you're clinging to each syllable
The Coalition completely disgraced Paduk in Gears 5. He was a witty and respectable character in Judgement, they made him into just another crazy Russian in Gears 5... absolutely pathetic.
I really liked Judgment because it gave us a real experience with the Gears Military and universe
So many good memories tied to this one... First combat game played with my then 5 year old grandson.. thanks for reminding me of those times
Brilliant video my friend, I enjoyed it and some very good points! 👍
I really enjoyed the campaign. Even from what I can remember I enjoyed the multiplayer. Never understood the hate. Judgement is kinda like Halo Reach, last game made by the publisher, doing a prequel, and experimenting with new and different concepts while going back to the roots of the series. Unfortunately both weren't appreciated in their own time
Hell yeah.
Well yes but no
Going back to the roo... What??
Judgement is to GOW like ODST is to HALO
But they didn't keep true to the lore, the campaign takes place right after e day so they shouldn't have Lancers with the chainsaw bayonet, that gets created a year after e day. Baird and Cole joined the cog about a few weeks after e day, they were never in halo bay and also Baird wasn't an officer. All the novels where published way before judgement so NO they didn't stay true to the"fiction". Every other gears game made many good references to the books but I don't know what they were doing with this game.
I did like some parts of judgement like overrun and it did improve on things but some of the story didn't make sense and it also breaks some of the lore.
With the new game gears 5 I believe that's gotten way too much hate and it's far better than judgement and even 4.
Anyway I'm still debating whether I'll play this game when I go back to play through all the games and read the books again.
Judgement took place months after e day that explains how cole and baird are already well established in the cog and lancer is just a staple of the franchise , removing it would clearly take away part of what gears of war , its better to go off the game for most lore since its where the franchise originated from
Lol 5 is shit dude. I’m playing now after hitting masters on rank tdm. The campaign is nothing but fetch quests like in a stale rpg. Having to ride on a skiff nonstop is just a time waster.. I’ll take judgment and 4 over 5 any day.
Honestly, this game hard a solid story and good PvE, but I'm a multiplayer player. This game played more like call of duty with wall bouncing rather then gears. No locust in multiplayer, you only spawn with one gun and a snub, the melee broke the gun play, the gnashed was inconsistent, this I just some of the things that ruined the game for me.
Kenji
I concur dear viewer, the changing of the controls to an FPS style game was not a wise creative decision. That was too much.
@@OMAHA16 and that right there makes you a much better youtuber then most others. Answering to a comment a year after a video is made, Cheers.
Gears of War Fans: JUDGEMENT SUCKS!!!
Gears of War 4 and Gears 5:
Gears of War Fans: Perhaps we treated Judgement too harshly...
I think too, that they missed a lot holes in this game. How Baird is consider to get an promotion in Gears of War 1 if Coronel Loomis said that Baird is no longer more lietnaunt, its a private and that means a private for ever..
Baird never receives a promotion in gears 1. Marcus is the only one who gets a promotion
@@TheLoudSenyy he bitches about marcus getting a promotion but not him.
Which he stayed a private for the longest time until I guess 4 lol, I remember they still called him private in 3 x.x
So I can understand if you paid 60.00 dollars for this game and being mad but if you have all the dlc Maps and Charcters (which you can buy all Dlc charcters on the stor except jungle Tai) it’s pretty fun and cool and I’ve always liked the game especially Aftermath.
Me after playing 4 and seeing 5
"maybe I was too harsh on you"
Good vid, although I think a lot of your comments are subjective. I recently did all the Gears games on the hardest settings and Judgment on Insane with all the modifier things was the hardest for me- absolutely brutal. The controls did feel simplified but it looked gorgeous and hey theres nothing wrong with trying some new stuff in a kind of spinoff game...
I definitely agree that gears judgement didn't deserve the hate and gears of war judgement in my opinion was the best gears game plus it was me and my family first gears of war game that we bought and we didn't know about the other gears games until later on.
SAME I thought this was the best one!!!
No way gears of war 3 was the best gears
Really?
Indeed. Judgement is awesome.
The only bad thing about this game was they changed the controls and limited you to 2 guns instead of the normal “2 primary and 1 sidearm”.
Overrun was life especially the ranked gameplay team work was everything
I enjoy overrun way to much
😂
I respect your opinion but i disagree it deserved its criticisms and hate. gears of war judgement is disappointing and was the start of the downfall of gears of war. I dont like the story structure how most of it is told through past situations in court,the villain Karn is underused and a watered down locust boss compared to Raam and skorge. The story isnt that interesting either and the game has a lack of content and bad multiplayer no horde either. Hated overrun and survival they were crappy replacements boring. I prefer the other horde mode playing as who you want and just surviving. The Aftermath campaign was great tho much better than judgement campaign. I think raams shadow did a better job at a gears prequel and different cast than what gears judgment tried. Coming from gears 3 which was my favorite one to judgement was a huge downgrade.
Multiplayer and gameplay were bad really bad, why tf they change the way we choose our weapons or that your not able to have two long weapons and a pistol, thats pretty stupid. Also the multiplayer is shit and I dont know who the fuck say lets take out horde mode and put that other shit i dont even remember de name. But man the campaign, the characters, the skins were real good I love all campiagns and judgement has a great one.
I think judgment also just came out at a weird time, right before the next gen in 2013.. I almost forgot about it
tbh i really liked judgement, but i never played the multiplayer. i also saw that gears 5 took it's worst ideas (like the b button being execute) from judgement.
16:06 The reaction speed on that onyx guard tho.
Bruhhhhhhhh
Aren’t they basically the Spartans of this universe though?
@@averyangrycrow4936 nah they’re more like the ODSTs
Nah, we just didn’t like judgment because of the change of controls, gameplay(for example: asymmetric maps, humans vs humans) and lack of content (maps, characters) all of that coming from the multiplayer, which is where we spend most of our time, after beating the campaign.
The story wasn’t the best, but it was interesting to know a little bit more about the lore of the gears universe, but it was just that: interesting.
Also I understand (correct me if I’m wrong) that the game was rushed by Microsoft, that’s why Epic collaborated with People can Fly.
Overall, judgment was a pretty interesting game, almost felt as an experiment, but an experiment that didn’t highlight.
Indeed... set original control setup and we good to go..
THIS game isn't bad or the multiplayer I know humans against humans in gears of war 3 all the locust they all died so judgement had to come up with a new story line humans vs humans
Gears of war judgment was a great game. It started off to a horrible start (mutiplayer wise), but sadly, by the time epic fixed all of the issues like lack of maps, two-piece, shitty shotgun, not spawning with both primarys, everyone spawning with grenades that stick to opponents, etc most people had already went back to gow3.
Also, it always bothered me how the gamemode overrun was seemingly forgotten. It was arguably the best edition to gears of war period, and was super fun. Not to mention, the campaign is my favorite of any gears, right next to Gow2. Still to this day my favorite gears game. Gowj is also the gears that brought us FFA to begin with.
I liked Judgement
Aftermath was cool and explained the UIR SUPPORT thing
And the campaign was *mwah*
Campaign was spot on. The challenges were odd, different, but interesting and fun. Only thing I dislike was how they handles controls for changing weapons and grenades.
Paduk is great. One of my favorite characters. Was quite happy to see his return in Gears 5.
I'll say I like grenades on the bumper, but not the weapon switching on Y
Uhhh im gonna have to say playing dress up is lame. Definitely makes the game cornier
the only reason this game was bad to people was the multi-player, weapons system and the Lancer being in the wrong time
At least judgment stayed in the grey truism dark and griddy world unlike 4-5 which are colorful and lost its identity
I think the Gears games shouldn’t have continued the story after 3, but release different kinds of Gears games in different periods of the Locust and maybe Lambent War. If people (including myself) weren’t as critical and syndical and gave the game a more open mind then perhaps the Gears franchise would be much different than it is now. For better or for worse is up to interpretation, but I do believe we wouldn’t have gotten a game like *Gears 5* if we hadn’t discouraged them.
The fact RAAM’s Shadow was a better game than Gears 5 is just sad, a DLC outdid a full feature game. I hope we get another Judgement, it’s better than anything the Coalition has made thats for sure.
I spent years on gears of war judgement's private matches (clan fights)... oh man gowj is definitely the game I most spent hours playing
It was way better then gears 5. Gears 5 is not a grears of war game.
I lived this game out as long as I possibly could and thoroughly enjoyed it.
This game was definitelly a treat.
A prequel done right.
Not really
Yeah plus they improved on the gameplay mechanics where now the sawed off has 2 shots instead of 1 and you can use the Lancer while using a human shield and when you use boomshields which I loved and I'm glad it got into the 4th and 5th game
@@bitchpudding2945 yes really
i played gears of war judgement and i loved it! i wonder if people still play it to this day
I love this game my only complain is the controls
Alejandro Torres
My thoughts the same dear viewer.
Gear kicks ass no matter what these haters can go somewhere
My only issue with judgement was control scheme
Yeah, the Y button had me confused when I first started the game.
True i hate the fact that they copied the y button from cod
honestly judgement is one of my favourite gears games
I will defend Gears of War Judgement as a good game. Could it have been better? Of course. Is it still fun and engaging to play? I certainly think so. It deserved better. I love how experimental it was with its gameplay compared with previous games in the series, and I like how it explored the history of the Pendulum War more thoroughly and how the Coalition is very flawed/ corrput
It was better if you imagined judgment was a gears 3 DLC but on a separate disc. That’s how I got enjoyment out of it cause it had a bunch of gow3 content and feel, just not installed into the gow3 game. If overrun, FFA and the campaign (along with the customization) were added into 3, it would’ve actually made 3 the best game ever!
But besides that… how can you discuss all that and not even mention the one biggest thing that upset fans… the removal of locust as PvP enemies? That and the quick swap system (that only allowed 2 weapons and a nade instead of 3 & a nade) that dumbed down the action so much, it just didn’t “feel” like a gears PvP. That was enough to make parts of the game not feel like a gears game anymore…. And you completely glossed over that when saying you didn’t understand how ppl said this didn’t feel like a gears game. It seems you understand just fine but intentionally didn’t address it. Idk why you chose to do that but that’s what made the game suffer the most. Sure some didn’t like the verticality (which I loved) as well, but it had hints of great gears content sprinkled throughout all modes in the game… but it also sprinkled enough changes throughout everything that took away from the “feel” of gears, and coming off gow3…. It was enough to taint the entire experience.
I appreciate the game for what it is, but some of the smallest, basic changes made to streamline the action (red vs blue, no DBNO, no PvP active reloads) and make weapon access faster (quick swap) along with the wild customization took away just enough to make it feel like a “silly” version of a gears game. I thought the PvP maps were some of the best yet, but that can’t save PvP when it changes the most radically than ever before.
It was a good game (miles better than gears 4/5), but again, if you view it as a dlc for 3 on a different disc altogether, it’s easier to swallow. On its own, too many changes took place to make it feel in line with the trilogy before it. THAT is why it didn’t land or resonate well with most players.
Unpopular opinion: they should make a gears of war about rhe penjulum wars
I think nowdays this opinion is more popular than ever)
I remember finding the weapon load out and button layout to be weird but I never HATED Judgement. I saw it as a new approach they wanted to test and I wanted to see if they would continue it or not in the next installment. I can't wait until the new game. 🎉 E-Day!
Feel like it could have been a patch or dlc rather than a full price game
I always loved Judgement
Since when it came out
Till this day
I really don't understand the hate but I won't judge for I understand that everyone has different opinions
But me personally, I love the game, still do and will continue loving it
I thought the capaign wasn’t bad the multiplayer I didn’t like that much and I felt like Overrun was a downgrade from beast mode in gears three
I also like the challenges
I hope Mauler Elites return and come to "E-Day," to the Campaign and Beast, Horde and Overrun Modes. I'd also like to be able to spin the Boomshield like how the Boomer Elites can as a human.
Always liked this one thought it was a cool spin on the formula with the whole investigation system and the new characters were great especially loomis my fav one.
Never really understood the hate that those neckbeard fedora reddit mods shilled on the internet against this game.
Tried playing it again recently and honestly, the only thing that I don't like and stops me playing is the more arcade feel and the control changes. If they had just added a control option setting to bring back the d-pad weapon change I'd probably stand by it more.
The Only People hating on this game are a bunch of 30 year olds that have nothing in life i loved this game alot it really tied up the lore i was looking for its s really good single player game Gears was never a multi-player game so seeing so many complain about the multi-player its insane like just go play Halo or Cod ya little whiny babies this gama Is Great and you can say otherwise
The multiplayer was probably it's weakest point, the campaign was pretty good and overrun while neat and a good idea with potential was not enough to carry the game. I do like the art style and outfit design feels more tacticool but keeping true to gears style
Overall id put it in the gears collection with 1 2 and 3 if they'd ever release one
Game looks beautiful, More european than earlier Gears ,giving a different view of how civilization on Sera looked like.
Campaign could have had an arcade mode like gow 3 had, it would have been a great addition.
Survival and overrun were interesting new modes.
Versus would have been great for a battle royale Gears style Game, but ppl were too much into GoW3 versus and it just didn't work out.
It was no doubt the fastest Gears.
I didn't like the idea of weird customization, rainbows or fucsia onyx? What the heck..Well, it's worst seeying some dumb emojis in new Gears.
The best of Jugdgement: Paduk.
Gears 2 was the peak of the franchise?? I'm not going to like this video am I...
Lol Nope. Mans has the meanest selective memory of all time.
Gears 2 was great and had the best gore physics but I enjoyed 3 the most.
The campaign was dope as fuck but the versus felt like call of duty and i dont play games like that😅 so i was instintly bored
Ah yes “Why Your’re wrong”
Judgment was good, not bad nor amazing, just good, it stands head and shoulders above gears 4 and 5.
GOW 1,2,3 & Judgement will always have a special place in my heart. I just wish Judgement was a little longer! I loved that they included UIR, I think it would be cool to see more content from their perspective.
Eshert0_o
Thoughts very similar dear viewer, "Judgment" was just the tip of the iceberg for so many different worlds to play in for Gears of War going forward.
The Biggest first Gears Failure including 4 and 5 all 3 of them sucks big time
I always said that Judgement was a great game if it wasn’t a Gears title. The content was solid but the gameplay(which is the most important part of a game) was really just not it. Not being able to have a gnasher AND lancer also changing how nades were thrown plus no down but not out, it just wasn’t a Gears game fundamentally. That was why I disliked it as a Gears game but I played it a decent amount. It still has my favorite customization/progression to this day(minus tactics ofc) and I want the Booshka and Breechshot to return especially with emphasis on Escalation. Also wouldn’t mind a return to maps with more difference in elevation, the maps were okay.
I actually loved this game when it came out, inly thing i didn’t like was cog vs cog but it was fine, gears 3 was better tho and this was the first time the next gears wasn’t better then the last. And now it just keeps on getting worse at least with the story on gears 4 n 5
good story but I didnt like how it was functioning.
Ive been playing through the whole series for the first time on game pass and I really liked judgement. The stars in the missions scratch my completionist itch...
