Fun fact, Titus doesn't actually 'die' from his wounds here. They stoip his heart for the primaris transformation, and if you're a black shield you serve there until you die. So he's referring to the fact that his Death Watch / Black Shield service is over and he's reborn into the Ultramarines once more.
@@arcturus1231 as I said, you have to die to stop being a black shield, so it is ambiguous wether he died from the wound or they ‘made’ him die by his rebirth through the surgery. The firstborn marine ceased and the primaris was born

For people confused about Titus, his supposed penance and why he joined the deathwatch as a blackshield. Titus was locked up in some Inquisitorial dungeon for more than 100 years. When the Inquisitorious finally decided he was uncorrupted by the taint of chaos, they offered him servitude with the Deathwatch. Titus initially declined, wishing to return to the Ultramarine chapter instead. It's then where he was informed about his name being removed from the ledgers of the chapter. An action that was endorsed by Leandros after he became chapter chaplain somewhere in those 100 years Titus spent rotting in a cell. When he heard he couldn't return to his own chapter, he accepted the position under the condition it was as a blackshield. Why blackshield? Because blackshields are marines who (willingly) abandoned their own chapters, but were uncorrupted and still loyal to the emperor. Blackshields are vowed to remain silent about their pasts and thus other members wouldn't dare ask about their histories. Had Titus joined the deathwatch as a normal marine, the inevitable question of his origin would follow and Titus wouldn't be able to lie about his past. Offering the deathwatch to Titus was also a genius move from the Inquisitorius to make sure they didn't make a mistake. The Deathwatch are extremely zealous and keen-eyed when it comes to corruption, had the inquisitors made an mistake with their assessment of Titus, the other chapter members would quickly notice and deal with him, blackshield or not. They're also often send on suicide missions, so there was a higher likelyhood for Titus to die. From their perspective, it was a win-win. In their eyes, Titus was either uncorrupted and thus a useful member of the deathwatch, or he's corrupted. Either way, his life would be deemed short due the nature of their missions. Why Titus wanted to serve 'penance' is because he deemed himself a failure after being forced to abandon his chapter all those years ago. It's the reason why Titus is shocked to hear he's was invited back into the ultramarines, as a primaris no less at the behest of the chapter master. Fun fact about Leandros: Leandros' a cunt.
Even funnier is that no other unit in the Ultramarines wanted Leandros as a battle brother. If anything they viewed his zelotry to the Codex far beyond the pail for even a Ultramarine. His "promotion" to Chaplain by Caldor was more of a punishment. Basically, isolating and in a sense censured the man from ever obtaining honor. I always viewed the man was too busy trying to earn a promotion. As it seemed in Space Marine one he was a very fresh battle brother, compared to Titus 4 centuries of service. So him going after Titus at the end felt like his goal was to aim for 2nd Captain.
@@everyonethinksyoureadeathm5773 Why does people say that about Leandros promotion to chaplain by Caldor? is it written somewhere? because I would want to read it, I know there is an issue of white dwarf I think issue 498 where they resume the events from space marine 1 to space marine 2 but I haven't read it.

So far i can see from the Vid that Titus Kill Team is: Titus: Blackshield, Ultramarine; Kill Team Leader Kelstros: Blood Angel; Second in Command Ulfar: Vylka Fenryka (Space Wolves) Beren: Black Templar Darius: Dark Angel I'm surprised Darius and Ulfar aren't at each others throths all day. Considering there Chapters don't like each other much. Props to Titus for keeping those two focused on the job.

@@main1033 To be fair, Thule seemed to get hit with toxins that destroyed most geeneseed implants, while this 'Nid seems to have vanilla (not venomous) boneswords.
Even after all that happened, Leandros waits by his once captains side, is glad to see him well and acknowledges the fact that the inquisition found Titus innocent. A part of Leandros still likes Titus and feels guilty imo. Which is also why he is stubborn
"TITUS, DO NOT TELL ANYONE YOU WERE A BLACK SHIELD, SHIT WOULD GET BAD", the brother-chaplain said calmly within a room with its doors unbarred and open to a pair of marines just standing around outside.
I don't get what GW's beef is with the Deathwatch with them being in this game only briefly just to go back to the generic smurfs they force on us, and of course nuking their codex and folding them into Imperial Agents. They could have kept Titus in the watch as a Blackshield, it actually would have made more sense to the story and the gameplay. Deathwatch Killteam marines are veterans, they use a variety of different weapons like one would in a video game. They also are like special forces with small teams being sent into enemy territory rather than fighting as rank-and-file units in large engagements, which would fit that Helldivers 2 style coop mission gameplay. Finally, they are the Anti-Xenos arm of the Inquisition, taking down strategic high value alien targets is what they do, and they are facing the Tyranids here.
@@Loispealz34 pretty easy for them to just rubric him up by the deathwatch who have even better tech. It's also possible to become a watch master even as a black shield which I believe would fit with him. They likely did this because smurfs are still the flagship marines and to have a plotline closer to the gman for 3 or maybe dlc. Another plothole is that gman would be incredibly furious if he learned about what happened to one of his sons and demand him back instantly likely while ordering that inquisitor to do some really unpleasant work

Because Titus was a blueberry in space mairne one, so he has to be one here heck. I think the death watch stuff was og going to be its own game followed by one where he becomes a smurf again
Yeah, i’m really hoping that we actually get a more interesting 40k game one day Fluff wise this game feels like a throwback to the Matt Ward era . Smurfs wearing no helmets doing insanely ridiculous things. I don’t know why this is still the mainstream portrayal of 40K when actual 40K fans have made it clear that they hate it.
Ok, getting this game from this cutscene alone. THEY ACTUALLY USED THE CORRECT DEATHWATCH TRANSPORT FIGHTER. YES. This thing is even more beautiful seeing it like this than in my wildest imagination.
I really love Leandros here, he is suspicious of Titus, but he knew Titus is more than worthy. He said: "Praise the Emperor!" Knowing full well that the Ultramarine NEED Titus, Leandros merely keeping an eye of him as his punishment for rrporting to thr inquisition.
Some technology still advances in the 40K universe. Titus fell flat on his face twice from great heights, and the Holy Omnissiah blessed machine grease an Adeptus Mechanicus gave him kept every single hair on his head in place.
This is just an intro to how large, deadly, and relentless Leviathan was. They literally lost a full squad of deathwatch in a short span of time. And even just one Deathwatch is a cut above a normal Astartes. Kadaku was already doomed from the beginning.
I know this is a minor thing, but it still gets me. They didn't animate the dip pen (at 6:20 and 6:32) correctly! When the man writing the document dips his pen, the hole in it stays empty. That hole in the pen is supposed to fill up with ink when it is dipped, its job is to hold some ink so the pen can write longer before it has to be dipped again. When the hole runs out of ink the pen is almost out and will need to be dipped again soon. When you can see the paper between the tines when they spread apart, as in 6:32, the pen definitely needs to be dipped because there is no longer enough ink to spread between the tines. When this happens, you get two thin lines instead of one thick line.

"but you will never know redemption until you have faced the judgement of your brothers" Gotta admit, that was the first MAJOR clue as to who the Chaplain was. And NONE of us saw that coming at all.
So, that’s how Tyranids should be, taken down by one shot, and mostly unable to get through armor. Not the “oh, our organic bodies are stronger than steel” ridiculousness.
What do they mean, ALMOST a century? Titus had TWO service studs in the first game, meaning two centuries of service. Now he has four. Meaning that even IF he was really close to his third at the end of SM1, it's been more than a century since he had two. Also, isn't one of his pauldrons on his DW armour supposed to bear ultramarine colours? Edit: right, Blackshield.
He was held captive by a mad Inquisitor who tortured him for proof of his Heresy for over a hundred years before said Inquisitor turned to Heresy himself. When his possessions were reclaimed, they found Titus and several other Marines in the same state. He was actually cleared of Heresy at that point, but volunteered for Black Shield as atonement for the disgrace he would bring his unit by association, he no longer could go back to his Chapter as doing so would highlight the stain of that history if he returned. Instead they just redacted the records and marked him KIA during the events of the first game, maintaining the honor of his Chapter at the cost of Titus himself serving a death sentence amongst the Black. He has served almost a Century as a Black Shield because of this. Since he was cleared of Heresy before volunteering, he was evaluated as still "in service" while he was a captive so he was granted the studs for that time period. When they made him Primaris, they then redacted his history again to remove his records as a Black Shield to make it so he was just a member of Death Watch (which is considered honorable service for elite Marines rather than serving a death sentence as a criminal which Black Shield is).
Titus is probably the only ultramarine figurine or Miniature I would ever want And because he's a name character he's one of the few models Models I would ever own that would not have a helmet on As I hate painting skin But I would either have 2 copies of the model Or make the Head swapable with magnets And I would definitely have a version of him From the OG game his time in the death watch and now as a primaris, Og would have an ork body on the Base Deathwatch would have a chaos marine And primaris would have a tyranid I just have to look up if he's A 32 40 or 60 mm character for the base So I will know how big the corpse Underneath him can or will be
Consider swapping chaos marine from deathwatch to Primaris. Deathwatch are specialised anti Xenos wing of the inquisition. They rarely fight anything else. It’s the Grey Knights that specialise against powers of the Chaos.
@@justincrowasuka2501 Well before he joined deathwatch The chaos Sorcerer at the end of space marine one That he beat was his biggest and major Enemy recently defeated Other than some tyranid before he became a primaris So I thought more wise it would work Even then I'm never gonna play with it Because I don't run ultra Marines and I don't run death watch I run grey knights And I am planning on running loyalists iron warriors So these mini's I would build out of based on this Guy would just be for display only Just more for me to say I have them And I would use his official base size This way if I wanted to in the future Play with him I would and I would make the bottom of his base magnetized So I can put it on a bigger bass To take position of the chapter master
I never thought space marines were this badily multilated under their armour or after becoming Primaris. Titus looks like frankenstein's monsters just with scars in place of stiches. Makes allot of sense now why Aeldari consider Astartes to be crudely augmented genetic monsters.
They get their skin ripped apart to insert the Black Carapace, AKA, the second artificial skin from which the nodes emerge, then get it grafted again. So yeah, the patchwork look Titus has is pretty accurate
I finished the campagne and tbh the graphics are just crazy, cant believe the game has not been downgraded or anything, game looks exactly as how it was presented first time.
@solinvictus2045 yeah but remember, not everything is about flashy graphics... I don't like looking at this game, it's giving me uncanny valley vibes, we're as the first didn't.

At this point I'm almost convinced Leandros is a tzeentch plant there just to fuck with Titus...
How? That would make zero sense in the story

MAJOR SPOILER:
Its kinda wild how Leandros is in this scene compared then upon his reveal. Like he's almost congratulating him for his near century service in the deathwatch.
i think he try to show titus "carrot" and wait for new opportunity to frame titus again. i still don't get what kind shit happend for High Command to let someone like Leandros advent in rank that fast and high just by false accused and stalking maybe one most loyal subject empire ever have
Maybe he was just trying to make up for past mistakes. But is too proud to show it

@@main1033 To be fair, Thule seemed to get hit with toxins that destroyed most geeneseed implants, while this 'Nid seems to have vanilla (not venomous) boneswords.
Even after all that happened, Leandros waits by his once captains side, is glad to see him well and acknowledges the fact that the inquisition found Titus innocent.
A part of Leandros still likes Titus and feels guilty imo. Which is also why he is stubborn
Leandros was in fact the one who recommended Titus to be sent back to the 2nd company, and later on an important mission for calgar himself

I don't get what GW's beef is with the Deathwatch with them being in this game only briefly just to go back to the generic smurfs they force on us, and of course nuking their codex and folding them into Imperial Agents. They could have kept Titus in the watch as a Blackshield, it actually would have made more sense to the story and the gameplay. Deathwatch Killteam marines are veterans, they use a variety of different weapons like one would in a video game. They also are like special forces with small teams being sent into enemy territory rather than fighting as rank-and-file units in large engagements, which would fit that Helldivers 2 style coop mission gameplay. Finally, they are the Anti-Xenos arm of the Inquisition, taking down strategic high value alien targets is what they do, and they are facing the Tyranids here.
Fukken same. My best guess is that they wanted an excuse to show off Calgar, or just have a reason to get Titus the Rubicon treatment.
@@Loispealz34 pretty easy for them to just rubric him up by the deathwatch who have even better tech. It's also possible to become a watch master even as a black shield which I believe would fit with him. They likely did this because smurfs are still the flagship marines and to have a plotline closer to the gman for 3 or maybe dlc.
Another plothole is that gman would be incredibly furious if he learned about what happened to one of his sons and demand him back instantly likely while ordering that inquisitor to do some really unpleasant work
@@josephvaccariello4181 With the sheer amount of shit gorrilaman has to deal with i doubt he'd have the time to handle that. But yeah flaqgship marines.
Because Titus was a blueberry in space mairne one, so he has to be one here heck. I think the death watch stuff was og going to be its own game followed by one where he becomes a smurf again
Yeah, i’m really hoping that we actually get a more interesting 40k game one day
Fluff wise this game feels like a throwback to the Matt Ward era . Smurfs wearing no helmets doing insanely ridiculous things. I don’t know why this is still the mainstream portrayal of 40K when actual 40K fans have made it clear that they hate it.
The way I see it Leandros already belongs with the Chaos Marines.
It's only a matter of time until he falls to the Chaos in order to kill Titus.
You clearly have not paid attention at all then
Leandros is a di*k, but not a member of Chaos anytime.
Ok, getting this game from this cutscene alone. THEY ACTUALLY USED THE CORRECT DEATHWATCH TRANSPORT FIGHTER. YES. This thing is even more beautiful seeing it like this than in my wildest imagination.
It was sad that captain titus lost his death watch comrades
It would be fun to see the space marines face off with xenomorphs and predators.
I really love Leandros here, he is suspicious of Titus, but he knew Titus is more than worthy. He said: "Praise the Emperor!" Knowing full well that the Ultramarine NEED Titus, Leandros merely keeping an eye of him as his punishment for rrporting to thr inquisition.
I like the look of the Death Watch armor with special equipment and ammo. Exactly how a true Marine gears up.
Can you imagine what those guardsmen are thinking at the beginning, like "Ah, dammit! Well, there goes Poker Night!"
These guys have multiple hearts right? He's fine
Some technology still advances in the 40K universe. Titus fell flat on his face twice from great heights, and the Holy Omnissiah blessed machine grease an Adeptus Mechanicus gave him kept every single hair on his head in place.
This is just an intro to how large, deadly, and relentless Leviathan was. They literally lost a full squad of deathwatch in a short span of time. And even just one Deathwatch is a cut above a normal Astartes. Kadaku was already doomed from the beginning.
I know this is a minor thing, but it still gets me. They didn't animate the dip pen (at 6:20 and 6:32) correctly! When the man writing the document dips his pen, the hole in it stays empty. That hole in the pen is supposed to fill up with ink when it is dipped, its job is to hold some ink so the pen can write longer before it has to be dipped again. When the hole runs out of ink the pen is almost out and will need to be dipped again soon. When you can see the paper between the tines when they spread apart, as in 6:32, the pen definitely needs to be dipped because there is no longer enough ink to spread between the tines. When this happens, you get two thin lines instead of one thick line.
First born looks so much better than primaris
Agree to disagree
@@phantomwraith1984I mean there’s stuff I like from the mk 10 armors but I just love the look of the vox grill that the firstborn mk7 and mk8 armors have.

Yeah, It just looks way more aggressive tho that just might be my taste.
Personally, I always enjoy my Space Marines to be more on the monstrous side of things. To be something that screams evil whether or not they're from chaos
I'd love to be able to put on MK III, it looks so brutal
Titus has been a traitor ever since. Dude is born a snitch
".. we have witnessed your deeds Titus..."
I wonder if we'll get a game for the Sisters of Battle later.
I would love to play as one of the Nuns with Guns.
It would be perfect to give the sisters more spotlight
The voice acting in this game wwe astonishing
They did not fuck around one little bit with these cutscenes
They look so realistic now. Not longer the 3 m as wide as high Marines. They looking like real Man now. And not extreme Bodybuilders with absolut unrealistic proportions.
But that was kibd of the point. That the surgeries to turn a human into a spacemarine deform the body to be a weapon, as opposed to Custodes enhancements which amplify the body to perfection
@@MatoVucbodybuilders are different from functional strength
@@averageeughenjoyer6429 and we were talking about imperial guardsman, maybe that'd mean something, but spacemarine are not human.
They are post-human bio-engineered supersoldiers that are 400kg of ultradense bone, muscle and additional organs.

"but you will never know redemption until you have faced the judgement of your brothers"
Gotta admit, that was the first MAJOR clue as to who the Chaplain was.
And NONE of us saw that coming at all.
Lets be honest, the hardest thing was getting a Dark Angel and a Space Wolf to be in the same squad without killing each other
Indeed they are dying to have punch each other 😂😂😂😂😂
Even in small competition
Like how many Enemy they’ve killed ended up brawl
Really wish we could have stayed as deathwatch. That armor with the hood was drippy as hell
So, that’s how Tyranids should be, taken down by one shot, and mostly unable to get through armor. Not the “oh, our organic bodies are stronger than steel” ridiculousness.
You're mixing Space Hulk tyranids and other strains
Stronger then steel means nothing when the common lasgun outputs enough power to tear men in half with one shot
For a brick, he flew pretty good 👌😂
What do they mean, ALMOST a century? Titus had TWO service studs in the first game, meaning two centuries of service. Now he has four. Meaning that even IF he was really close to his third at the end of SM1, it's been more than a century since he had two.
Also, isn't one of his pauldrons on his DW armour supposed to bear ultramarine colours?
Edit: right, Blackshield.
He was held captive by a mad Inquisitor who tortured him for proof of his Heresy for over a hundred years before said Inquisitor turned to Heresy himself. When his possessions were reclaimed, they found Titus and several other Marines in the same state. He was actually cleared of Heresy at that point, but volunteered for Black Shield as atonement for the disgrace he would bring his unit by association, he no longer could go back to his Chapter as doing so would highlight the stain of that history if he returned. Instead they just redacted the records and marked him KIA during the events of the first game, maintaining the honor of his Chapter at the cost of Titus himself serving a death sentence amongst the Black.
He has served almost a Century as a Black Shield because of this. Since he was cleared of Heresy before volunteering, he was evaluated as still "in service" while he was a captive so he was granted the studs for that time period. When they made him Primaris, they then redacted his history again to remove his records as a Black Shield to make it so he was just a member of Death Watch (which is considered honorable service for elite Marines rather than serving a death sentence as a criminal which Black Shield is).
@@vc180191 ah, I see, yea, that makes sense. And it makes a certain Chaplin an even bigger and more self-righteous arsehole.
Titus voice? Krollo of vikings
Man….the veterans affairs only took a thousand years to prove he was worthy. These space marines are doing great
I have a feeling Titus is the emperors champion
the chaplain's scenes feel different after finding out who he is.
Bro I was like “damn this is the end of this Death Watch marine” then boom *Titus* then it was like “HOLY Sh*t he gonna get out of this”
Imagine how bad ass the dreadnaught Titus is going to make one day....
Still won't be as good as the loyal emperor's children Dreadnaught
I wonder how painful the space marines surgery that could even worse than death
SOMETIMES DEATH IS THE FIRST STEP YOU TAKE.😊
Titus is probably the only ultramarine figurine or Miniature I would ever want And because he's a name character he's one of the few models Models I would ever own that would not have a helmet on As I hate painting skin But I would either have 2 copies of the model Or make the Head swapable with magnets And I would definitely have a version of him From the OG game his time in the death watch and now as a primaris, Og would have an ork body on the Base Deathwatch would have a chaos marine And primaris would have a tyranid I just have to look up if he's A 32 40 or 60 mm character for the base So I will know how big the corpse Underneath him can or will be
Consider swapping chaos marine from deathwatch to Primaris.
Deathwatch are specialised anti Xenos wing of the inquisition. They rarely fight anything else. It’s the Grey Knights that specialise against powers of the Chaos.
@@justincrowasuka2501 Well before he joined deathwatch The chaos Sorcerer at the end of space marine one That he beat was his biggest and major Enemy recently defeated Other than some tyranid before he became a primaris So I thought more wise it would work Even then I'm never gonna play with it Because I don't run ultra Marines and I don't run death watch I run grey knights And I am planning on running loyalists iron warriors So these mini's I would build out of based on this Guy would just be for display only Just more for me to say I have them And I would use his official base size This way if I wanted to in the future Play with him I would and I would make the bottom of his base magnetized So I can put it on a bigger bass To take position of the chapter master
Tidus is greatful he didnt wake up in a metal coffin.
Hell, its about time! - wait wrong game.
Knowing exactly who this fucking Chaplain is gives this scene a whole new vibr
They need to give us the first born outfit and the axe
From what I saw, his squad had a space wolf, and a dark angel, I think the last was a blood angel
I hope we get a DLC with the Death Watch, seeing a Templar, Space Wolf, and Blood Angel was sick.
I never thought space marines were this badily multilated under their armour or after becoming Primaris. Titus looks like frankenstein's monsters just with scars in place of stiches. Makes allot of sense now why Aeldari consider Astartes to be crudely augmented genetic monsters.
They get their skin ripped apart to insert the Black Carapace, AKA, the second artificial skin from which the nodes emerge, then get it grafted again. So yeah, the patchwork look Titus has is pretty accurate
I still want Titus deathwatch armor for operations
we know well that titus would become a dreadnought if he died
I noticed in the intro to this that the power axe was shown but not in game I’m guessing it’s something will see be added
Calling it now, in a dlc or future game Leandros will become a chaos marine and when Titus kills him, he’ll blame his turn to chaos on Titus
Then you have not paid any attention to the talks the two of them had over the course of the game
3:37 He killed an ork warboss by himself but couldn't kill a hive tyrant?
An Ork Warboss doesn’t hold a candle to a Hive Tyrant
That's a carnifex not a hive tyrant
Warbosses range in strength. Ghaz or the beast would slaughter a carnifex other warbosses have lost to normal space marines
Thats is a carnifex ans Hice tyrant are way more strong
