9:01 Fun fact about the lore: While The Emperor is stated to be a powerful psychic, and claims to have been born sometime in ancient history, before year 0, he is not in fact Jesus Christ, but he IS heavily implied to have been one of his Disciples, likely before The Emperor became as repulsed by the idea of Divinity as he was at the start of The Unification Wars.
Huh. You know, I'm surprised at myself for never having thought of the Christ option. But as a Perpetual, it would make all of the sense for him to have been Christ. Otherwise, there'll be an implied narrative of him having been Judas. I'm not sure that 40k needs this thread woven into Imperium's (im)moral foundational history.
@@HTWW Just reread the excerpts from “The Last Church”, The Emperor claimed to have been the foundation of many religions through history, and he is canonically a perpetual, and will revive if theoretically actually killed, so there is a possibility that he was Jesus, but in my opinion, it’s unlikely, given his brutalistic, and pragmatic ideology being totally at odds with the Christian faith. He IS, however, confirmed to have been Saint George, from the story of Saint George and the Dragon. He defeated a shard of the C’tan “The Void Dragon” (an ancient God that makes up a fundamental law of reality), and imprisoned it, beneath what is implied to be the planet Mars.
It is also suggested in The Last Church and Mechanicus that the Emperor is St. George (who again is one of the most venerated military saints in Christian church since the crusades).
@@spectre1990 That’s true, him defeating a shard of the Void Dragon was the inspiration in the 40k universe for the Saint George myth, this is why the Fresco painted on the ceiling of The Last Church on Terra depicts him doing battle with a black, metallic Dragon.
Leandros should have been demoted back to scout. He snitched to the inquisition while according to the Codex he should have reported Titus to a Chaplain of the chapter.
He mightve been but remember he's also one of the oldest members of the chapter, like leandros is 100+ years old, as is acheran (shown by the 2 gold service studs). He could've made his way from scout to chaplain in that time, considering acheran and Titus went from recruit to captain of the 2nd company in the same time period. Like a space marine who has that much continuous service is going to have a special rank of some description, whether it's an officer or an adjacent.
I think it would be interesting to explore corruption within the ultramarines in the future here. They are already known to be the perfect Boy Scout chapter (besides how cool they are in 30k) so actually exploring some flaws would be welcome and make them far more interesting.
TRUE! Holy fuck I hadn't even considered that haha. And considering Titus is well known by the Chapter Master why is Leandros not punished but raised to the position of a chaplain? Especially considering he goes against what the Chapter Master believes about the codex.
What you forgetting is chaplains connected to Inquisition. Most of time, inquisition even plants their agents inside chapters. Even Leandros wasn't a plant it doesn't matter to Inquisition. Zealot nerds will reward him since he snitching. God emperor please forgive their basedless moves.
@@BIackCadillac Most of the Ultramarines died at the Battle of Macragge against Hive Fleet Behemoth, and most of the newer Marines including Acheran are Primaris replacements without experience in fighting the enemies of the Imperium. There is a reason a Sargent is inexperienced in fighting Tyranids and Chaos. So the remainder of the Chapter is either in the 1st Company or giving training to the Primaris under Guilliman.
Cool little detail is that your armor gets more and more worn as you progress the campaign. Starts of pristine but in the last mission its covered in damage
This game itself is an example of true dedication from a hardcore fan-base! Fans of 40k and the OG Space Marine got this game made and it’s a miracle it is as amazing as it is! Truly worth every year, month, hour, and min of the wait!! Praise the Emperor!!
If the Emperor dies, besides being a psychic god, the Golden Throne will essentially collapse and a rift to the Warp will open allowing daemons to overrun Earth.
Yes but the corrupted webway that’s being forced closed on Terra would claw itself open subjecting earth to a complete demonic invasion not seen since the Horus Heresy
The Horus Heresy already kind of hints at this when he started drinking too deeply from the Warp during his battle with Horus, wherein he started becoming the fifth Chaos God, aka the Dark King, and husking the people around him as his light spread to every reality and world in creation before he managed to stop himself. I think because of Malcador iirc. Basically nothing good happens if he joins the Warp, at least not according to the author of those books. He essentially becomes the sphere at the center of Chaos' symbol, the one all the other arrows or Gods in it are running from.
@@am-ranth8955Mostly right, but from what I recall it was Ollanius Pius, not Malcador. And yeah, I think it's implied that if he becomes the Dark King then he would wind up essentially consuming all of reality including the Chaos Gods.
@@am-ranth8955 They have also been feeding him so SOOO many psykers... They are creating a god in the warp. That is where the lore is going i am 100% sure of it. I think he will become the god of human purity... In a way the worst of them all. As no human can ever be that pure and everyone will suffer because of it in trying to be perfectly pure. It would be the death of human free will. There is hope. It is not going to be a situation like Slaanesh as it is a human who will ascend. The emperor's own personality and love for actual humanity with all it's flaws... Could be the thing keeping worst scenario at bay...The creation of a god worse that all 4 chaos gods combined. Even the Eldar are scared of that scenario. I am really looking forward to that development in the lore. The empire needs a big boost beyond the Primarchs coming back to even have a tiny shred of hope vs the awakening Necrons who collect gods more powerful than anything in warp like Pokemon... There is also the Nids who literally eat warp, demons, gods and material things alike... They have only shown a fraction of what they are capable of... None has yet to even talk to a sapient nid like the Norn queens...Or even interacted in anyway with the hive mind. They feel so above everything else except the Necrons. Even the Tau with their tiny souls are getting a god representing them For better or for worse we don't know yet.
@@x9cc nah I skipped ahead to the part that I thought he would see the dreadnought come out the wall, I already beat the game I just wanted to see charlie's reaction to that. Then I saw heresy.
This feels like a game that came from the ashes of what made gaming in the early 2000s so damn good. A game where you get so engrossed in the story, the setting, the characters, with a pretty nice pay off and ending that manages to keep you hyped for the potential of DLC or a sequel, and then leads into just more content via coop PvE or some fun PvP. I mean Halo very much started that way. Amazing story and campaign with a nice little bonus multiplayer that ends up getting about the same traction as the main story. Not sure if the multiplayer will boom in this game like Halo (likely not) but still, this is how I remember my video games and I'm so glad there's a few developers remaining that understands this.
Warhammer 40K is an absolutely massive, over the top, ridiculous universe that is definitely not for everyone. With that said I think it's a perfect universe for Charlie to dive into.
And? Space marines need time off too you know. While being able to fight for days without little rest there are still limits to how much a space marine can operate without rest. And i'm sure there are some rules in the codex that states how long a space marine can operate in battle before needing rest.
@@MNM-lq9teit's implied that they're about to go, or just returned from a mission You can even overhear an astartes talk to a serf regarding the condition of his armor
Iudex was probably the worst twitch viewer that you could have gotten to join you, bro got downed in almost every fight and Gadrield had to always ress him lmao
Context on why Leandros is such a Codex huffer, if at all curious. Kind of a sparknotes rendition, based on what I read, but apparently during a Tau incursion, Titus and Co. along with the company captain board an enemy ship. All goes well, until the Tau lay an ambush on Leandros' squad, killing a bunch of marines and capturing him in the process. Titus and the commander mount a rescue operation that succeeds in freeing him, but the commander is killed, which pretty much destroys Leandros with guilt. Titus, all the way up until Graia, does his best to teach Leandros to move on, to learn new ideas and open his mind to ways he might do better in the future, and forgive himself. Unfortunately, Titus' teachings pretty much bounce off his skull - instead he pretty much dedicates himself to the inerrantcy of the Codex Astartes, internalizing the notion that if he follows it to the letter then nothing like what happened to his commander can possibly happen again, missing the point that it's really more of a guidebook than sacred law. Which pisses him off, seeing Titus' ingenuity running deviant to his philosophy yet being rewarded unfathomable success all the same. The reason he has such a beef with Titus is because if Titus succeeds, it jeopardizes his beliefs and would shatter the safety blanket in his mind forever.
*Charlie sees a dreadnaught* “When do I get to operate that?” Oh, you know, when you’ve received such a devastating wound that only your brain remains functioning so you have to be entombed in a semi-sentient war machine that constantly hurts you and fills you with rage at the enemy.
playing with friends, there's so much cool little details they added in. Especially when there were dialogues exclusive to the characters we were playing, so when Imurah was speaking to Titus whom my friend was playing, I could not hear it at all. Each one of us got caught in the empty black domain thing and you'll see them disappear whilst still fighting in real time in said domain. Man they cooked with this game.
Lore for newbies stumbling into the comments: - The Thousand Sons are a legion of Heretic Astartes or Chaos Space Marines, Astartes who betrayed the Imperium to join the forces of Chaos, with the Thousand Sons particularly being sworn to Tzeentch, the Chaos God of change, fate and deception. They are a force consisting of Psykers (those with psychic powers) animating the armour of their deceased battle brothers like automata and casting powerful warp sorceries to destroy their foes and reshape reality to suit their goals - Chaos is a pantheon consisting of 4 dark gods: Khorne, the Chaos God of Blood and War. Tzeentch, the Chaos God of Change and Deception. Nurgle, the Chaos God of Plague and Entropy. And Slaanesh, the Chaos God of Excess and Depravity. They fight and bicker with eachother but work together just enough to execute some plans or ideas in the name desecrating the galaxy - Chaplains are a role taken in loyalist Space Marine chapter by Astartes who show exceptional inspiration amongst their battle brothers. Their job in a Chapter is to uphold the morale of their company, act as a voice of guidance for their brothers, and stomp out Chaos corruption the milisecond it begins to form in their ranks. You do not fuck with a Chaplain, unless that Chaplain is Leandros, he doesn’t deserve the respect real Astartes Chaplains get - A Lord of Change, AKA the big bird daemon at the end, is Tzeentch’s greater daemon. Chaos Daemons are made up of fractions of power from the god they hail from, and Lords of Change are the most powerful form of Daemon that Tzeentch can create, being unparallelled sorcerers capable of turning the minds of any who simple glance at them to descend into the pits of madness Feel free to ask me anything else, I love autistically yapping about the lore of 40k
The pre-rendered cutscenes in this game are really making me itch for that movie and series of his. Amazon needs to get their shit together, this is a goldmine.
and even the imperium's administratum bureaucracy clerics does war everyday, against endless tyranid-like tides of paperworks. just one wrong typo, they could be executed for heresy. because that typo could lead to some part of imperium armies' desperately needed logistic supply ships being uber sent to the wrong direction in the galaxy...
1:57:54 that’s insane this means Chairon is 10000 years old and is apart of the first batch of Primaris marines that were created by Cawl and put in stasis for 10k years after the death of Guilliman
@@DroolingDrilling I agree. A lot of people now don't like games with that grey colorless atmospheric theme, like old COD or Gears, but I love it. Even more so than current colorful graphics for shooters. It just fits better.
What makes Calgar even more of a badass is that hes not Marneus Calgar, his real name is Tacitan. When he was still a boy, he had a best friend named Calgar who was killed by cultists masquerading as teachers and trainers for potential space marines. When the genuine marines rescued him and asked his name, he told them his name is Calgar. For the rest of his life he lived with his friends name to honor their dream of becoming great space marines. I'm skipping a lot of stuff, but if you're interested I suggest you read up on it, its a great story.
It’s bland, inoffensive and boring so you’re not wrong, but anyone with more brain cells than the average nematode needs more of an objective than just mindlessly killing monsters.
I just have to put this out there This came up on audio play whilst I was half asleep. I was completely convinced he was playing dead island, I heard the same sounds as dead island, could imagine in my head what chapter he was on. I listened for the full three hours, drifting back and fourth to sleep. It was weirdly comforting hearing Charlie playing one of my favourite games. To my shock, it’s not at all and completely imagined this all in my head.
*So for those who watched the video* and thought it was unfair for Leandros to become a Chaplain, even after a hundred years, know this: Chaplains are dicks in lore, all of them, they're the odd ones of the Chapter, they can't fit into the brotherhood, and they are extremely fanatic/zealous, they're further indoctrinated by the Chaplaincy once they begin their training as Judiciars. Leandros took the Codex very seriously and almost religiously in the first game, he was ever suspiscious, stubborn and watchful of Titus, which are all qualities almost every Chaplain possess and needs to have, and another reason they don't fit into the brotherhood, for they never fully trust their brothers, and neither does their brothers trust them before they become a Chaplain. Him becoming a Chaplain could also be seen as a form of punishment, he's taken away from the battle and away from the other Battle-Brothers, serving only as an image of what the Chapter represents and a role model for the fellow Marines "below" him.
Exactly! It makes a lot of sense he is a chaplain. What you say is true, however it's worth noting that Chaplains roles change depending on the Chapter, a Black Templar chaplain for example absolutely fits with everyone else being important warriors and leaders. Because BT are super zelaous. Blood Angels are there to deal mostly with Death Company matters as well as their usual duties.
@@runamuck840 All Chapters treat their Chaplains with the utmost respect and regard, they are very high ranking officers at the end of the day and are responsible for maintaining the spirit and mental health of an Astartes.
@@jorgeclarkson8286TBF even in BT who are one of the few truly Religious Chapters it can be seen as a bit of a Punishment post too as Chaplains in BT are suppose to be Exemplars of the Black Templar's Values, Grimaldus intially hated becoming Reclusiarch because it was such a huge burden to be one and was often questioned by his fellow brothers.
The attention to detail in this game is insane, even down to only a handful of the thousand sons having their bodies and all their power still with the sorcerers
1:41:08 is absolutely one of the highlights of this video, watching a Tyranid Warrior getting chainsawed then punted into a pipe is so amazingly cinematic.
I'm torn between this as my GOTY and black myth wukong. I wonder which one will win it officially too, or whether it'll go to another game. Monke vs for the Emperor
As a die hard warhammer fan, I think it’s still probably Wukong. Space Marine 2 is a wonderful game but the performance issues, anti-epic review bombers and critical receptions effect it too much. It might win some things in the Game Award though.

@@spectre1990 That’s true, him defeating a shard of the Void Dragon was the inspiration in the 40k universe for the Saint George myth, this is why the Fresco painted on the ceiling of The Last Church on Terra depicts him doing battle with a black, metallic Dragon.
Leandros should have been demoted back to scout. He snitched to the inquisition while according to the Codex he should have reported Titus to a Chaplain of the chapter.
He mightve been but remember he's also one of the oldest members of the chapter, like leandros is 100+ years old, as is acheran (shown by the 2 gold service studs). He could've made his way from scout to chaplain in that time, considering acheran and Titus went from recruit to captain of the 2nd company in the same time period.
Like a space marine who has that much continuous service is going to have a special rank of some description, whether it's an officer or an adjacent.
I think it would be interesting to explore corruption within the ultramarines in the future here. They are already known to be the perfect Boy Scout chapter (besides how cool they are in 30k) so actually exploring some flaws would be welcome and make them far more interesting.
TRUE! Holy fuck I hadn't even considered that haha. And considering Titus is well known by the Chapter Master why is Leandros not punished but raised to the position of a chaplain? Especially considering he goes against what the Chapter Master believes about the codex.
What you forgetting is chaplains connected to Inquisition. Most of time, inquisition even plants their agents inside chapters.
Even Leandros wasn't a plant it doesn't matter to Inquisition. Zealot nerds will reward him since he snitching. God emperor please forgive their basedless moves.
@@BIackCadillac Most of the Ultramarines died at the Battle of Macragge against Hive Fleet Behemoth, and most of the newer Marines including Acheran are Primaris replacements without experience in fighting the enemies of the Imperium. There is a reason a Sargent is inexperienced in fighting Tyranids and Chaos. So the remainder of the Chapter is either in the 1st Company or giving training to the Primaris under Guilliman.

Cool little detail is that your armor gets more and more worn as you progress the campaign. Starts of pristine but in the last mission its covered in damage
That final mission is insane.
Final Mission is crazy
The final mission situation is crazy
This game itself is an example of true dedication from a hardcore fan-base!
Fans of 40k and the OG Space Marine got this game made and it’s a miracle it is as amazing as it is!
Truly worth every year, month, hour, and min of the wait!!
Praise the Emperor!!
If the Emperor dies, besides being a psychic god, the Golden Throne will essentially collapse and a rift to the Warp will open allowing daemons to overrun Earth.
but if the Emperors soul becomes part of the warp, what is going to happen to it. Big E could even be reborn.
Yes but the corrupted webway that’s being forced closed on Terra would claw itself open subjecting earth to a complete demonic invasion not seen since the Horus Heresy
The Horus Heresy already kind of hints at this when he started drinking too deeply from the Warp during his battle with Horus, wherein he started becoming the fifth Chaos God, aka the Dark King, and husking the people around him as his light spread to every reality and world in creation before he managed to stop himself. I think because of Malcador iirc.
Basically nothing good happens if he joins the Warp, at least not according to the author of those books. He essentially becomes the sphere at the center of Chaos' symbol, the one all the other arrows or Gods in it are running from.
@@am-ranth8955Mostly right, but from what I recall it was Ollanius Pius, not Malcador. And yeah, I think it's implied that if he becomes the Dark King then he would wind up essentially consuming all of reality including the Chaos Gods.
@@am-ranth8955 They have also been feeding him so SOOO many psykers...
They are creating a god in the warp. That is where the lore is going i am 100% sure of it.
I think he will become the god of human purity... In a way the worst of them all.
As no human can ever be that pure and everyone will suffer because of it in trying to be perfectly pure.
It would be the death of human free will.
There is hope. It is not going to be a situation like Slaanesh as it is a human who will ascend.
The emperor's own personality and love for actual humanity with all it's flaws...
Could be the thing keeping worst scenario at bay...The creation of a god worse that all 4 chaos gods combined.
Even the Eldar are scared of that scenario.
I am really looking forward to that development in the lore.
The empire needs a big boost beyond the Primarchs coming back to even have a tiny shred of hope vs the awakening Necrons who collect gods more powerful than anything in warp like Pokemon...
There is also the Nids who literally eat warp, demons, gods and material things alike...
They have only shown a fraction of what they are capable of...
None has yet to even talk to a sapient nid like the Norn queens...Or even interacted in anyway with the hive mind.
They feel so above everything else except the Necrons.
Even the Tau with their tiny souls are getting a god representing them For better or for worse we don't know yet.
Charlie saying "Man that is beautiful" at 2:21:05 was absolute heresy, I was appalled that an Astartes would call the warp "beautiful"

I live my heartbeat dont stopped. I am immune to the curse
This feels like a game that came from the ashes of what made gaming in the early 2000s so damn good. A game where you get so engrossed in the story, the setting, the characters, with a pretty nice pay off and ending that manages to keep you hyped for the potential of DLC or a sequel, and then leads into just more content via coop PvE or some fun PvP.
I mean Halo very much started that way. Amazing story and campaign with a nice little bonus multiplayer that ends up getting about the same traction as the main story. Not sure if the multiplayer will boom in this game like Halo (likely not) but still, this is how I remember my video games and I'm so glad there's a few developers remaining that understands this.

@@jorgeclarkson8286 God it's gonna be good.
Warhammer 40K is an absolutely massive, over the top, ridiculous universe that is definitely not for everyone. With that said I think it's a perfect universe for Charlie to dive into.
That pillar throw from the dread summed up the universe, and everyone loves it.
"I can spare no more" literally over a dozen marines just dicking around near the flight deck at any given time...
And? Space marines need time off too you know.
While being able to fight for days without little rest there are still limits to how much a space marine can operate without rest. And i'm sure there are some rules in the codex that states how long a space marine can operate in battle before needing rest.
@@MNM-lq9teit's implied that they're about to go, or just returned from a mission
You can even overhear an astartes talk to a serf regarding the condition of his armor
Iudex was probably the worst twitch viewer that you could have gotten to join you, bro got downed in almost every fight and Gadrield had to always ress him lmao
Context on why Leandros is such a Codex huffer, if at all curious.
Kind of a sparknotes rendition, based on what I read, but apparently during a Tau incursion, Titus and Co. along with the company captain board an enemy ship. All goes well, until the Tau lay an ambush on Leandros' squad, killing a bunch of marines and capturing him in the process. Titus and the commander mount a rescue operation that succeeds in freeing him, but the commander is killed, which pretty much destroys Leandros with guilt.
Titus, all the way up until Graia, does his best to teach Leandros to move on, to learn new ideas and open his mind to ways he might do better in the future, and forgive himself.
Unfortunately, Titus' teachings pretty much bounce off his skull - instead he pretty much dedicates himself to the inerrantcy of the Codex Astartes, internalizing the notion that if he follows it to the letter then nothing like what happened to his commander can possibly happen again, missing the point that it's really more of a guidebook than sacred law. Which pisses him off, seeing Titus' ingenuity running deviant to his philosophy yet being rewarded unfathomable success all the same.
The reason he has such a beef with Titus is because if Titus succeeds, it jeopardizes his beliefs and would shatter the safety blanket in his mind forever.
*Charlie sees a dreadnaught*
“When do I get to operate that?”
Oh, you know, when you’ve received such a devastating wound that only your brain remains functioning so you have to be entombed in a semi-sentient war machine that constantly hurts you and fills you with rage at the enemy.
playing with friends, there's so much cool little details they added in. Especially when there were dialogues exclusive to the characters we were playing, so when Imurah was speaking to Titus whom my friend was playing, I could not hear it at all. Each one of us got caught in the empty black domain thing and you'll see them disappear whilst still fighting in real time in said domain.
Man they cooked with this game.
Lore for newbies stumbling into the comments:
- The Thousand Sons are a legion of Heretic Astartes or Chaos Space Marines, Astartes who betrayed the Imperium to join the forces of Chaos, with the Thousand Sons particularly being sworn to Tzeentch, the Chaos God of change, fate and deception. They are a force consisting of Psykers (those with psychic powers) animating the armour of their deceased battle brothers like automata and casting powerful warp sorceries to destroy their foes and reshape reality to suit their goals
- Chaos is a pantheon consisting of 4 dark gods: Khorne, the Chaos God of Blood and War. Tzeentch, the Chaos God of Change and Deception. Nurgle, the Chaos God of Plague and Entropy. And Slaanesh, the Chaos God of Excess and Depravity. They fight and bicker with eachother but work together just enough to execute some plans or ideas in the name desecrating the galaxy
- Chaplains are a role taken in loyalist Space Marine chapter by Astartes who show exceptional inspiration amongst their battle brothers. Their job in a Chapter is to uphold the morale of their company, act as a voice of guidance for their brothers, and stomp out Chaos corruption the milisecond it begins to form in their ranks. You do not fuck with a Chaplain, unless that Chaplain is Leandros, he doesn’t deserve the respect real Astartes Chaplains get
- A Lord of Change, AKA the big bird daemon at the end, is Tzeentch’s greater daemon. Chaos Daemons are made up of fractions of power from the god they hail from, and Lords of Change are the most powerful form of Daemon that Tzeentch can create, being unparallelled sorcerers capable of turning the minds of any who simple glance at them to descend into the pits of madness
Feel free to ask me anything else, I love autistically yapping about the lore of 40k

1:32:28 SPACE MARINE. YOU SPEAK HERSEY OF OTHER GODS??!?
look at these bots, this is sad
More bots than I do friends
If you want the lore, the hours you sit through just to have a fraction of it. All you need to know is war. War is all we know in the grim dark.
and even the imperium's administratum bureaucracy clerics does war everyday, against endless tyranid-like tides of paperworks. just one wrong typo, they could be executed for heresy. because that typo could lead to some part of imperium armies' desperately needed logistic supply ships being uber sent to the wrong direction in the galaxy...
Erebus was born, and the galaxy went into a downward spiral ever since
The one singular cadian fendin of the tyranids at 3:48 is awesome never noticed that first playthrough
1:57:54 that’s insane this means Chairon is 10000 years old and is apart of the first batch of Primaris marines that were created by Cawl and put in stasis for 10k years after the death of Guilliman

53:20 Charlie accidentally explaining Slaanesh lore
"An old 360 title in the best way". Couldn't put it any better lol.
What makes Calgar even more of a badass is that hes not Marneus Calgar, his real name is Tacitan. When he was still a boy, he had a best friend named Calgar who was killed by cultists masquerading as teachers and trainers for potential space marines. When the genuine marines rescued him and asked his name, he told them his name is Calgar. For the rest of his life he lived with his friends name to honor their dream of becoming great space marines. I'm skipping a lot of stuff, but if you're interested I suggest you read up on it, its a great story.
Recommending this game is easier than saying pizza is good food.
It’s bland, inoffensive and boring so you’re not wrong, but anyone with more brain cells than the average nematode needs more of an objective than just mindlessly killing monsters.

This came up on audio play whilst I was half asleep. I was completely convinced he was playing dead island, I heard the same sounds as dead island, could imagine in my head what chapter he was on. I listened for the full three hours, drifting back and fourth to sleep. It was weirdly comforting hearing Charlie playing one of my favourite games.
To my shock, it’s not at all and completely imagined this all in my head.

I like how each of Charlies new video of space marines contains higher praises in the title than the one before it
*So for those who watched the video* and thought it was unfair for Leandros to become a Chaplain, even after a hundred years, know this:
Chaplains are dicks in lore, all of them, they're the odd ones of the Chapter, they can't fit into the brotherhood, and they are extremely fanatic/zealous, they're further indoctrinated by the Chaplaincy once they begin their training as Judiciars.
Leandros took the Codex very seriously and almost religiously in the first game, he was ever suspiscious, stubborn and watchful of Titus, which are all qualities almost every Chaplain possess and needs to have, and another reason they don't fit into the brotherhood, for they never fully trust their brothers, and neither does their brothers trust them before they become a Chaplain.
Him becoming a Chaplain could also be seen as a form of punishment, he's taken away from the battle and away from the other Battle-Brothers, serving only as an image of what the Chapter represents and a role model for the fellow Marines "below" him.
Exactly! It makes a lot of sense he is a chaplain. What you say is true, however it's worth noting that Chaplains roles change depending on the Chapter, a Black Templar chaplain for example absolutely fits with everyone else being important warriors and leaders. Because BT are super zelaous.
Blood Angels are there to deal mostly with Death Company matters as well as their usual duties.
What about the dark angels? I thought they treated them like swifties treat Taylor swift
@@runamuck840 All Chapters treat their Chaplains with the utmost respect and regard, they are very high ranking officers at the end of the day and are responsible for maintaining the spirit and mental health of an Astartes.
@@jorgeclarkson8286TBF even in BT who are one of the few truly Religious Chapters it can be seen as a bit of a Punishment post too as Chaplains in BT are suppose to be Exemplars of the Black Templar's Values,
Grimaldus intially hated becoming Reclusiarch because it was such a huge burden to be one and was often questioned by his fellow brothers.
remember when people said the sniper class was gonna be shit? me too.

3:10. That is the bravest guardsman I've ever seen he should be given a medal if they ever find his body.
he actually survive. But then we don't know what happened to him once he got off screen. So his fate is unknown.
The attention to detail in this game is insane, even down to only a handful of the thousand sons having their bodies and all their power still with the sorcerers
Legend has it that the AI in Space Marine 2 is so sophisticated that it runs off the radiation of a dying star.

As a die hard warhammer fan, I think it’s still probably Wukong. Space Marine 2 is a wonderful game but the performance issues, anti-epic review bombers and critical receptions effect it too much. It might win some things in the Game Award though.
The fact that its this studio behind the new kotor remake gives me so much hope.
