What if P-3 has a gauntlet like P-2 did but you fight multiple earthmovers like how this animation has them fight with the addition of other enemies on the ground and on the backs of the earthmovers.
@@brayancalderon4794 if he does I would imagine it would be so difficult it would have weak spots to aim for but the game won’t tell the player where it is or if they hit it unless the health bar goes down. Like no handholding and guiding the player on where to go and what to do, just player intuition and game sense to figure out how to win.
V1 was literally made to fight in the Final War and kill Earthmovers. I'm sure Hell used the Violence layer as the perfect gift for it: the war it could never fight in, as it ended when V1 was still in prototyping phase. As bad as Hell is, it did one good thing: It allowed a weapon, a war machine to finally fulfill its long-denied purpose.
I interpreted the lore as since the Earthmovers changed the entire the entire FRONT of warfare thanks to its sheer size and shield generator, new models were made to be more mobile and precise strike units, the scalpels to EMs brute force. They weren't DESIGNED to take them down (it's established that you can't get any better than an EM) so the next generation of war machines adapted to this by probably being deployed from the EM to fight micro battles on the new fronts. Taking the EM wasn't it's purpose but was in it's skill set
@@ethanstyant9704 it's less about V1 destroying Earthmovers, and more about continuing the war. Since humans had to live on top of Earthmovers, instead of building something to defeat EMs it seems more reasonable to build something to infiltrate them and kill everything that lives on their backs. After all, V1 can refuel just from being splashed with blood, which makes it perfect for fighting in populated areas.
This is a really interesting interpretation! I actually kind of like the idea that hell has been on V1's side. It is trying to stop it and kill it, but... isn't that what V1 wants? What does V1 want?
Fun fact: the only reason benjamin doesnt move in game is because of the red stuff on his feet, which is the trees in 7-3, so if we hadnt fed a bunch of trees then this is what the earthmover fight would have looked like
the ending was perfect the voices , the way v1 moves towards earthmover even against it futile attempts to defeat it really cemented v1 as the ultimate weapon
fun fact: the earthmover that we fight in ultrakill was programed to only fight the top threats to itself, that earthmover was in a fight with another earthmover, and then it stoped fighting that earthmover and directed its attention to v1. So that means that the earthmoves see V1 AS A BIGGER THREAT THEN ANOTHER EARTHMOVER
V1 would TOTALLY get along with the Doom Slayer, Master Chef, Samus, and Hank J. Wimbleton, because they all share one thing in common… doing what they do best… and doing what comes natural.
@@Mewthree-and-Friends2004 he means it literally my guy, every machine was made to counter the last one, and the Earthmover was the last machine before V1, so he was literally made to kill him.
That last 'conversation' between V1 and the Earthmover was, in it's own way, equal parts tragic and cathartic, at least in the sense of it being between the two of them. There's no anger in either of their voices, no surprise either, and the...acceptance...both of them have of it all is almost as impressive as it is sad. They both fought, yet both knew from the start how things would have ended, even at the beginning. The Earthmover was designed as the perfect war machine for the war it was meant to fight, human combat was probably designed specifically around hardened points and it's entire setup is built to deal with that. Missile salvos to suppress formations and the gatling guns deal with air, the massive cannon it had as a hand to deal with hardened points, and the armor was meant to let it take a hit from what was likely strategic scale ordnances. It was an army killer, a city breaker, and above all else, a war machine that was perfect for the job of killing humans. V1 was meant for rapid assault and mobility, able to move and scale impossible distances in the time it would take others hours it could do in minutes or seconds, and would easily be able to deal with chaff to get to it's target. It was small, fast, and lethal. Perfect for single target missions or HVT assassinations, which the Earthmover really was, and it was almost perfectly designed to work around the Earthmover's traits and abilities with little issue. They both knew how this would end, yet...they still fought their best and gave as well as they got, and if nothing else, that has to be worth something in the end. A no more perfect conclusion, in their own words.
Oh no, that wasn’t V1 and Benjamin, atleast not originally. There is something in 7-4, with that exact transcript. After the “T H I S I S T H E O N L Y W A Y I T S H O U L D H A V E E N D E D”, there is another line on the book… *the pages are empty* That wasn’t a conversation between Benjamin and V1, that was Hell giving a speech to V1
the fact you put you own spin on the fight making it more of a 1v1 than the moving fortress is just so awesome, your animation gets better every video and you truly are one of the most underrated channels. Most of this being able to do in game (apart from ripping off earthmovers arm which would be fucking badass) shows you have a real passion for it. Keep it up man
The brain of the earthmover resembling a previous version of v1 is such a neat detail. They're both brothers designed to wage war but v1 is just better. The almost human fear in his eye as it shattered into pieces puts v1 into perspective of what he's truly capable of.
That's V2. Now, one may claim that he was reduced to mush at the end of 4-4, but if you go back to the V2 Fight animation, Ichellor's version of V2 didn't 'die'. He only powered off after loosing all of it's limbs. The chest and the head still remained. Guess what we see in that cold tower of steel?
@@trueHardWork Ichellor's version of V2 got his head crushed at the end by V1. The Earthmover's Core in this version just resembles the V models but is not one of them. Also that core is a decent amount larger than V1 but both V models are pretty equal in size.
I feel like V1 infiltrating the earthmover better fits gameplay while fighting it head on makes for a spectacular animation instead. Love how innovative this video was.
V1 probably could go full Metal Gear Rising on the Earthmover if it wanted. It’s not like fighting titans much larger than itself is anything new for the machine - look at Minos and the Leviathan
@@Stryfe52 True, but the EarthMover has a built-in shield generator (When V1 parries the EarthMover's ricoshot, you can see it takes it some time to break through the shield), so shooting it until it dies isn't an option. In-game, infiltrating the Earthmovers is the only way for V1 to destroy them
fun fact: when the earthmover screams at the player in the lore its a scream of terror, this is because v1 was made after the earthmover therefore v1 is the predator and the earthmover is v1's natural pray... witch i find pretty badass...
@@thecrtf4953 It’s said that each machine made was made to surpass the previous machine in the guttertank description. At least I think in the guttertank description.
@@thecrtf4953it’s a combo. The guttertank states each machine was made to surpass the previous, tje Earthmover was one of the last war machines, and V1’s development was said to be cancelled due to war ending. We also get a heads up display for the Earthmover’s fluid levels rising and have the healthbar show up the moment V1 sets its eyes upon it, so that tracks as to V1 being made to kill the Earthmover
Considering V1 was made to perfectly counter the Earthmovers, he had all thing necessary to defeat such beasts. (Earthmovers were build at the latest part of the great war and were the deciding factor, V1 was the last machine designed for the war but the war ended before it's deployment, so he came later than the Earthmovers. And with the statement from the Terminal Entries "every machine is build to counter the last" we can be sure of that one).
It increases lethality because it has never seen another supreme machine that wasn’t another earthmover, as such it started at what usually kills any smaller machines and scaled from there
@@boakley8147 yeah, as strong as V1 is even with their arsenal I don't think the armor of earthmover is thin. Even though it was shielded I think it'd still be armored to the nines.
If you look in the logs you can find on the earthmover ingame you can find that each machine was made to surpass the next. the Earthmover was the last one made in production before the war ended. V1 never went in to full production but was made after the Earthmover. This means that V1 was made to take down these things. and I think rather than the noise it makes at the start instead of being a Roar or anything rather is a scream of terror.
@@snek9388 Wich means that, if war continued, V1 models would have been given a name, and they would have become the standard infantry. The horror of a war where V1 is the common soldier.
T H I S I S T H E O N L Y W A Y I T S H O U L D H A V E E N D E D. Had chills listening back to this mixed in with Gemini’s VA. Thank you for having me on for another badass masterpiece! ❤️
yo great job on the voice, i have one question though ik that the dialogue at the end is just from the book you can find on the earthmover, but in the context of this, is it V1 and the earthmover talking, V1 and Hell talking, or just hell talking with two voices, or nothing and its just there to sound cool? Whatever it is, great job
Considering the fact V1 was designed to destroy earthmover makes this all the more better. Not considering that it's just a general enjoyment watching this. Adding on: I'd like to mention at the end, when they're talking with each other, they don't actually hate each other, talking about how humanity was, pratically idiots. (Heads up for people who don't notice, V1's voice is more feminine, while Benjamin's is more combine like.)
I’m Canadian and because our prime minister justin trudeau has raised our taxes and bills and everything up so high our government must have too much money to know what to do with
The Earthmovers were the pinnacle of the arms race. Often called the horsemen of the apocalypse, it took only one to level an entire city and leave nothing but fire in its wake. The last era of the Final War had begun. The first machines large enough to house a shield generator, these walking fortresses could only be made vulnerable from within, making them the frontline for smaller, more mobile machines. Due to their colossal size, they required both blood and solar power to function. When the final era escalated, cleansing the world with fire, the surviving civilians were forced to evacuate and build new homes on the backs of these machines, as the surface became an inhospitable wasteland where no flora or fauna could flourish. Eventually the soot, smoke and decay from unending global war would blot out the sun, casting the world into the Long Night, and Earthmovers, unable to feed on sunlight, shut down and died out one by one. War had become entirely dependent on them, large scale conflict was no longer feasible. Finally, mankind started to work together to reverse the effects of the Long Night climate catastrophe, and so began the New Peace. 200 years of war for its own sake ended not with a bang, but utter silence. At the brink of despair, the planet would slowly learn to breathe once more, and the corpses of these titans would serve as a stark reminder of just how close mankind was to an apocalypse by their own hand. STRATEGY: - Each part of the security system is immobile, making them very vulnerable to attacks that would otherwise easily miss, such as Freeze Frame rockets. - Some of the gaps in the main computer room's defense grid are too high up for a normal jump, but the elevated edges of the room can be used to get higher. More adept movers may instead jump immediately after a ground slam to gain enough height.
@@mondongoloco7902 I think its implying that Hell is speaking to V1 directly, explaining its reasoning for why the Violence layer speaks to it so much, because of the sublime violence that the machines cause
Speaking of this book. Most people interpret it as Hell speaking to V1. I intend to show a different view, however. I believe the book is a letter of admiration, written by Hell itself. An admiration to the Earthmover, to the machines, to the abhorrent cruelty that humans could do. They have become so cruel and self-destructive that even Hell itself was fascinated. "War no longer needed its ultimate practitioner. It had become a self-sustaining system. Man was crushed under the wheels of a machine created to create the machine, to crush the machine. Samsara of cut sinew and crushed bone. Death without life. Null ouroboros. All that remained was war without reason." It's implied in the Mannequin terminal entry that their creation was because Hell itself was inspired by the cruelty of humans. This book is a love letter to it.
4:43 Ripping off Earthmover's arm and then using the Lightning Lance as an upgraded railcanon felt like something out of Platinum Games. And I wouldn't have it any other way. You have outdone the ENTIRETY of Earthmover's fight in the game and made ART from it. And that final scene... Well, the voice tells it as it is: "Perfect Closure"
that moment reminded me of Raiden (MGRR) ripping off one of the EXCELSUS'S arms and using it against the "metal gear" (its actually a hexapedal which is not what an MG is, but it is named as one) funny enough MGRR is a Platinum Games release
@@epicKerBallze There are quite a few MGR references in this animation, that's for sure. V1 ripping Benjamin's brain and squeezing it is straight out of the final fight of MGR as well.
It wasn’t the lance laser because when it fires the coin laser for the second time you could see the lance pointing down and unable to fire at the coin.
You used to be able to enter the head of the Earthmover and trigger the brain fight. Causing the lasers to kill it when you are still outside of Earthmover. It was dubbed Lobotomy% and it led to the world record on this level being 23 seconds.
DAMN!! It's incredible seeing how much you've improved!! I love how rather than following the infiltration route ultrakill took, you made your own cinematic fight one on one. Great work as always man!! Keep it up!
Man, the end gave me chills. Most ultrakill content is comedic, but when a content creator like you remind us the true nature of the game's story... Well.... Dang.
@@ionisator1My guess is that it is intentional but idk if it's the same VA The text is from a hidden book from that same level but I still question for who was it for
Making the "only way it should have ended" ramblings a dialogue between V1 and hell itself insead of just a monologue hits suprisingly hard Edit: nvm :(
Unironically, this is peak cinema. Its so amazing and I just keep coming back to it because of how amazingly done it is. The pure scale and awe of this fight is insane.
id like to think this is how everything really looks like since the reason we see everything so pixelated is because of v1 and most machines scaling down their perception to be able to process things faster
@@averageeughenjoyer6429 Not to mention that they don't have the same eyes we have. The "optical sensors" could be much more efficient for the tasks V1 are performing
damn this is awesome, the use of the charge shotgun movement tech, the unique weapons like the earthmover having it's own "coins", the use of whiplash, the framing, it's glorious truly a superb animation that I'm surprised hasn't gotten more attention
5:34 I like to imagine the eulogy is from V1, reciting it was he's making his way to end Earthmover, and Hell itself, saying a few final words for the ultimate mass destroyer. You can hear 2 voices, a male and a female ( who is similar to V1's voice in Clair de Lune )
Idk why i suddenly got the urge to type this after that ending but here you go: The supreme machine, V1, stand still as it watches its enemy, 1000-THR Earthmover, bend on their knees. V1 walks slowly towards the Earthmover. The Earthmover, knowing its destruction is near, raise its once supposed-spear into the air and speaks of its last words. "This is the only way it could have ended." V1 stops at its track. "War no longer needed its ultimate practicioner. It had become a self-sustaining system..." "Man was crushed under the wheels of the machine created to create the machine created to crush the machine." The Earthmover trusts its once supposed-spear into the hot sand below. "Samsara of cut sinew and crush bone." V1 interrupts the Earthmover "Death without life." "Null ouroboros!" The Earthmover shouts in defience. "All that remained is war without reason..." The Earthmover says while its head facing the sand. A moment of silence happens, but is quickly broken by V1. "A magnum opus." V1 says, before the Earthmover looks back at V1. "A cold... tower of steel." V1 continues to say, as if mocking the Earthmover. "A machine built to end war, is always a machine built to continue war." The Earthmover replied to V1's sarcasm. "You were beautiful, outstretched like antennas to heaven." V1 says while slowly tilting its head. "You were beyond your creators." V1 continues. "You reached out for god," Then the Earthmover interrupts it. "And YOU fell..." The Earthmover says. "None were left to speak your eulogy." V1 replied. "No final words. No concluding statement." "No point. Perfect closure." The Earthmover interrupts V1 again. V1 grab its railgun and points it at the Earthmover. "THIS IS THE ONLY WAY IT SHOULD HAVE ENDED"
Holy shit, the chills from the ending. Both of these ancient machines, their creators long dead, bereft of purpose, fighting to the death not just because it's what they were built to do, but because they had nothing else they *could* do. Phenomenal work.
@@lockinggone7862this version is even stronger than the v1 of the game, this destroye the hand of minos while the other just parried it, and also this won a force quonqueest with the whiplash againts bejamin, anymore this can dogge like 10000 rockets at the same time in the air
@@lockinggone7862 in this animation V1 punches the Earthmover's own weapon down into it with such force that it creates a blast bigger than some nuclear bombs. this version of V1 would treat the ingame one like a chew toy
i like how the earthmover has more weapons to its arsenal to defend itself from smaller targets rather than just the spear its made for the sake of an all-duty machine
Would make sense tbh afterall there truly is no bigger machine than the earthmover and based off the Gutters spawn animation I'd assume most machines would be airdropped into battle
Considering the fact that the only thing bigger enough to even damage an earthmover is another earthmover, its strategically perfect to create a ultimate machine with a heck ton of security mechanisms so not even a single thing would even think about climbing it and killing the workers.
I honestly expected it to be basically a walking fortress covered in missile launchers, railguns, rotating gatling guns, AA Cannons, and anything else that'd be loaded onto a giant war machine I think it'd be silly for something of this scale to just have this atomizing spear as the only weapon
On one hand I'm such a huge fan of War Without Reason that I was a bit disappointed that you went with the P-2 theme, but you really made it work for this fight! I nearly flipped when Benjamin unleashed its own coin attack.
I have 5 theories for the ending poem. 1. Old audio from humans 2. V1 and the controller (V3) 3. Hell 4. Something beyond comprehension 5. The souls of the escaped
Honestly, i keep rewatching this for the most part because of the end sequence. You really managed to hammer in how scary v1 is. Not only is he a war machine, who does not make room for human emotion and reasoning in his circuits, but his presence instills fear into other machines. I think this was portrayed greatly by giving the brain an Iris witch v1 lacks. At that moment v1 isn't merely a thing, but almost a conduit for Hells desires. It's war that lead v1 to being created, and now he's become the prime example of what brought him into existence.
The Earthmover was a bigger threat in the level. He was the ENTIRE LEVEL. That single lighting spear could pierce through hell to heaven. Like it's called "...like antennas to heaven" his distant friend shot him for a reason. Infact, the earthmovers were so powerful, they had to be welded to flesh so they don't move.
Entire Level? Yes. And it was Pathetic. To give player climax i would made fight a two part. First part is there all EarthMovers are present (Pestilense, Famine, Death and War) all fight with each other and combined armies of machines, heaven and hell on the burn to glass fields. After first earthshattering shots of EarthMovers nothing left there three armies stood. Then they focus on eachother and you, you need to dodge secondary weapons and wait then main weapon will fire to coin deflect it to lesser EarthMovers to destroy them one by one. After only WAR is left you start boss fight with him just as show in the video... Last EarthMover destroyed player moves to next layer barely able to breath from all adrenaline in the system.
I think y'all are forgetting the entire premise that our side won because we were GEARED TO COUNTER IT. Earthmovers were made in an absurdly fast scaling race where people either made bigger guns or strapped the guns on something that was too armored to be able to dodge missiles. Its shield was able to block any high-grade weapon and had enough plating to be impervious to small arms fire. Any attempt to bring powerful weaponry close to it would have been squashed by a single shot of lightning spear. V1 is a small, absurdly fast by any standards, target with more guns than its frame looks like it should be able to operate simultaneously and an arm of which the parrying ability needs a ludicrous amount of firepower, lasers, or melee prowess to bypass, and acquired an enhanced degree of movement with the whiplash it only could have gotten otherwise if the war continued. It didnt *feel* that threatening because with the main gun being occupied by the other giraffe, (and it would probably not have shot itself after V1 got on it*) all it had were its point defenses that were not designed for a literal one robot army.
In a previous comment I posted on the absurdity of the coins and the things they can do, and I still believe that the coins are a bit much. HOWEVER, the nonsense of the coins is null, void of any point, thus means nothing. On my rewatch I enjoyed myself and found the animation, story telling, and basically everything else to be incredible. Then I noticed something new, the way V1 parried that punch from 6:06 made me realize that they were toying with the 1000-THR, pulling off stunts to make the EARTHMOVER look pitiful in comparison. We know what happens if V1 Really wanted the 1000-THR dead, in the base game V1 just took out his brain and that was it. THIS fight however... was for enjoyment. The thrill of destroying the thing the V models were made to destroy. What an incredible animation.
Given the other animation against V2 using V1’s voice as the calm female, there’s something so beautiful about the debate they have. “War no longer needed its ultimate practitioner. It had become a self sustaining system.” There’s a inward look of a machine like V1 talking about the thing it was literally made for that’s so beautiful and haunting- as a ‘sentient fucking go pro,’ as is often joked about, it knows very well what its purpose is and what it is designed to accomplish. It’s a killing machine, adaptive and smart: limited only by its own scope of vision. The earthmover, the deep, cruel male speaker voice begins “man was crushed under the wheels of the machine,” referring to itself, only to be hacked off, both in combat and verbally, by V1’s rebuke. “Created to create the machine, to crush the machine.” Man’s folly was never setting aside differences and coming together, arguably the only thing that could’ve changed their fate- in their hubris to out do one another, they ceased to exist. While I’m not sure on the specifics, ‘Samsara’ is a Hindu concept, which by the way is a religion that is mostly about harmony and peace according to their prayers, in which Samsara is described as “running around in circles.” “A samsara of cut sinew and crushed bone,” referring to the folly of V1’s quest, and the way they’re just like humans. Feeding off other creatures just to survive. V1 retorts that it’s just death without life, a ‘null ouroboros,’ which is interesting: it originates in Egypt, and refers to death and rebirth. For it to be a Null Cycle as they call it, would point that V1 doesn’t care, or seems to say “we’re just machines: we were never alive.” But the Earthmover has a crushing counter- “all that remained is war without reason.” Despite being commentary on the insanity of such war happening that humans would cease, it’s more than that- “if we are never alive, then we did not think. There was never a reason for us to fight in the first place, with no humans to guide us.” The magnum opus refers more in an ironic sense- that on a cosmic scale they were a piece of art whirling by. But V1 shows almost hate in their words: “a cold tower of steel,” as if somehow V1 doesn’t like what it or they are. And v1 begins that a machine built to end war is always to continue war, but is joined in harmony by the earthmover, proclaiming the same speech- as if robots of all sizes humans made arrived to that conclusion. We don’t know how long v1 has been in hell- the missions are played through in less than 20 minutes, but it’s hell, there’s no way of knowing. But it’s clear the earthmover has been here a while, continuing its war because it’s all it knows. Then V1 back pedals- it calls the earthmover beautiful. It may be my own personal introspection, but it sounds almost remorseful that it had to come to this. As said by the earthmover as its first words, “this was the only way it could have ended.” That both knew what would come of meeting, but, the Earthmover indulges V1. “Outstretched like antennas to heaven.” It knew it was a folly of man from the start- a walking steel tower designed to crush and maim the “others” humanity declared so terrible. There’s a tragedy in the way the voice tells V1, “you were beyond your creators. You reached out for god.” As if it was something the engine of war could never aspire for- never hope for. Even if V1 is obeying its programming to a degree, they respond that “you fell. None were left to speak your eulogy.” It sounds cruel, but it’s the way things are for them; the machine continued its war down into hell. Perhaps the other side of the war is who they were from- but it doesn’t matter now. V1 could not reach god. And like what goes up, the mighty tower went down. “No final words, no concluding statement,” showing their mirrors of eachother even now. The Earthmover’s brain looks just like V1- a reflection across. All they miss is the legs and arms and wings, and they could be seen the same. “No point.” “Perfect closure.” The V1 was designed to deal with targets like this. Assassinate, infiltrate and divide. As they rip its eye out and crush it, the final words are “this is the only way it should have ended.” V1 echoes the sentiment- it’s the end of ‘life’ for the earthmover, but to V1? *It’s just another meal.*
Few points for context, it's implied V1 was specifically made to take down the Earthmover, so it's V1 seeing what it was made to destroy and The Earthmover seeing the machine meant to kill it. I think in Earthmover lore, when they couldn't get sunlight they all outstretched their arms to the heavens as they died, almost as if asking for God to save them. I belive it's said that blood itself gives life and sentience, so all the machines became self aware with infused with it. While they have programing, they aren't bound by it, they feel. I like to think of a quote from Gabrial when considering this "We all bleed the same blood"
According to the cutscenes, V1 has been on Hell for a single day. He went from Prelude to the end of Act II in a single day, since Gabriel was given less than 24 hours to defeat V1.
Okay I don't understand how hard it is to understand, but this is from a book from 7-4 This is not V1 or the Earthmover, it is from Hell speaking to V1 from a book.
@@mattdayman461 perhaps Hell was speaking through the Earthmover in this animation. And then after the Earthmover is dead, V1 repeats the statement. And yes, we know in the game it is text from a book in the level, but this is a fan animation, artistic license.
amazing animation i love how you took artistic liberties and added your own stuff it really makes your animation unique edit : especially the extra weapons really make the earthmover more dangerous
5:31 as much as the Action is so amazing in this video, everytime I watch this the ending has to be my favourite part, the line "SAMSARA OF CUT SINEW AND CRUSHED BONE. DEATH WITHOUT LIFE. NULL OUROBOROS. ALL THAT REMAINED WAS WAR WITHOUT REASON." Has to be the one of hardest parts of any poem I've read, I think the only other poem that is in the same realm for meaning and power behind it is The View From Halfway Down from Bojack Horseman "I wish I could've known about the view from halfway down". But the robotic voices used for the Audio for this poem makes it hit so hard, because it genuinely feels like V1 has empathy for the THR-1000, and since V1 was designed to take down the THR-1000, it is the only way, this could have ended.
You might wonder how V1 could possibly fight a Supreme Machine like the Earthmover, when his own size is but a speck of dust in comparison to the humongous mountain of metal and death that stands before him But what many people often forget... is that V1 is _also_ a Supreme Machine
The fact he was made to regen completly and refuel completly also the moment blood touched his skin, and make coins out of the iron in the blood just show how abnormally op that mf V1 was
@@eridanus2357 that earthmover wasn't the only one, big ben was dealing with a fight with another earthmover in the games so it couldn't totally focus on us
What the heck? I just found out about that channel, and I've been watching and rewatching some of the channel's videos for like, 2 hours straight, and suddenly, when I am about to close RUclips, that video pops up. It's like a dessert after a whole-ass banquet!
the red text saying “LONG NIGHT” hits hard, since from what i remember, the earthmovers produced too much steam or smth, they also were solar powered, but the steam blocked out the sun, and this was called LONG NIGHT or whatever the humans had to live on the backs of earthmovers ever since i think
More or less. Before the long night, the humans which lived on top of the 1000 thrs survived the 1000 thrs. The explosions from the 1000 thrs were the ones to cause the long night, with cinder, smoke and debris blocking the sun just like nuclear winter, or the extinction of the dinosaurs
You're right. The Earthmovers created so much smoke from destroying everything that it blocked out the sun. And humanity chose to live on these titans of steel because there wouldn't have been any safer place with all the other machines like Guttermen and Guttertanks roaming the earth. Plus due to the energy shields, Earthmovers can't destroy each other, so they're immune to attack from others of their kind
This video serves as a reminder to me of how V1 is considered a fatal threat for everyone. This right here and in the level itseld, where Benjamin sees what to him, a single ant. Yet immediately locked in and charges his Antenna in order to eliminate the ant as soon as posssible. I don't think it's similar to Corpse of King Minos fight. Although comparable in size, Minos's Corpse was only a husk. But Benjamin is sentient and he goes all out against us. This video serves the justice to Benjamin's attempt to survive V1. I love it
How has no one commented on the letterboxing effects? The way they're used is amazing, evoking Cen0's style by using it to frame shots while still layering important details in front of it.
@@fischio-gc-hides5994 its not bro that manologue was taken from one of the ingame books its hell talking directly to v1 hell is the only thing in the game that uses red text and another big clue is that all the pages of the book the monologue is from are blank
I doubt it, earthmovers were not created to do this, they weren't made to deal with extremely small extremely quick targets like v1. They were made to just destroy whole cities and armies, and as a result they're slow since investing into speed was unnecessary, same goes for any weapon other than the lance and defense system.
It's not the roots of the tree of life (I think), in Dante's Inferno in the 3rd ring of violence (violent crimes against God, Art, and Nature) if you stand still/take a break for even a moment you will be stuck to the burning sand for 100 years, so it's probably this.
This has got to be one of the coolest animations I've ever seen. The set design, the sound design, the actual feel of the earthmover as this huge machine. It really did this level justice, and the quietness of the end after the fight just really hammers home the tone of Ultrakill. As goofy as it can be, it's also serious and somber with the story it's trying to tell. 10/10, looking forward to more animations.
I don't know what kind of eldritch sacrifice you made to make this fight seem even more like an epic power fantasy than it does in the game, but whatever it was, it was definitely worth it. From the screen ratio changes to the new additions to the Earthmover's kit, to the amazing use of the landscape to the animation's advantage, to the incorporation of "WAR WITHOUT REASON" and "LIKE ANTENNAS TO HEAVEN" to the post-battle speech. This is so far one of your best animations yet, and I really hope you get more recognition for this.
They made it a more epic power fantasy by having V1 fight Earthmover HEAD ON LIKE YOU'RE FUCKING RAIDEN FROM METAL GEAR RISING TAKING DOWN THE EXCELSUS. In game you kill it more like a parasite kills a host, taking the easier route of getting inside and striking it where its weak.
And from the looks it wasn't the books contents, but Hell itself jacking V1's comms module to give him those "Recordings". Hell literaly mocked Humanity AND V1, because perchance it is provoking V1's path down to the very last Layer of Hell, both knowing full well how this trip will end, Hell devoid of any leftover soul and the Machines dead by starvation or the infighting that will happen once the last non machine source of blood is consumed, V1 included. That "talk" truly has some depth depending on how schizo you want to go with it

V1 was literally made to fight in the Final War and kill Earthmovers. I'm sure Hell used the Violence layer as the perfect gift for it: the war it could never fight in, as it ended when V1 was still in prototyping phase.
As bad as Hell is, it did one good thing: It allowed a weapon, a war machine to finally fulfill its long-denied purpose.
that's an interesting way to put it, actually. never thought of it like that.
I interpreted the lore as since the Earthmovers changed the entire the entire FRONT of warfare thanks to its sheer size and shield generator, new models were made to be more mobile and precise strike units, the scalpels to EMs brute force. They weren't DESIGNED to take them down (it's established that you can't get any better than an EM) so the next generation of war machines adapted to this by probably being deployed from the EM to fight micro battles on the new fronts. Taking the EM wasn't it's purpose but was in it's skill set
@@ethanstyant9704 it's less about V1 destroying Earthmovers, and more about continuing the war. Since humans had to live on top of Earthmovers, instead of building something to defeat EMs it seems more reasonable to build something to infiltrate them and kill everything that lives on their backs. After all, V1 can refuel just from being splashed with blood, which makes it perfect for fighting in populated areas.
This is a really interesting interpretation! I actually kind of like the idea that hell has been on V1's side. It is trying to stop it and kill it, but... isn't that what V1 wants? What does V1 want?

@@nov_Dio True.
@@Mewthree-and-Friends2004 he means it literally my guy, every machine was made to counter the last one, and the Earthmover was the last machine before V1, so he was literally made to kill him.
That last 'conversation' between V1 and the Earthmover was, in it's own way, equal parts tragic and cathartic, at least in the sense of it being between the two of them. There's no anger in either of their voices, no surprise either, and the...acceptance...both of them have of it all is almost as impressive as it is sad.
They both fought, yet both knew from the start how things would have ended, even at the beginning. The Earthmover was designed as the perfect war machine for the war it was meant to fight, human combat was probably designed specifically around hardened points and it's entire setup is built to deal with that. Missile salvos to suppress formations and the gatling guns deal with air, the massive cannon it had as a hand to deal with hardened points, and the armor was meant to let it take a hit from what was likely strategic scale ordnances. It was an army killer, a city breaker, and above all else, a war machine that was perfect for the job of killing humans.
V1 was meant for rapid assault and mobility, able to move and scale impossible distances in the time it would take others hours it could do in minutes or seconds, and would easily be able to deal with chaff to get to it's target. It was small, fast, and lethal. Perfect for single target missions or HVT assassinations, which the Earthmover really was, and it was almost perfectly designed to work around the Earthmover's traits and abilities with little issue.
They both knew how this would end, yet...they still fought their best and gave as well as they got, and if nothing else, that has to be worth something in the end.
A no more perfect conclusion, in their own words.
Oh no, that wasn’t V1 and Benjamin, atleast not originally. There is something in 7-4, with that exact transcript.

The brain of the earthmover resembling a previous version of v1 is such a neat detail. They're both brothers designed to wage war but v1 is just better. The almost human fear in his eye as it shattered into pieces puts v1 into perspective of what he's truly capable of.
If we assume that the line in the last scene are v1 and benjamin talking you can see benjamin accoeted his death and showed some kind of respect to v1
That's V2. Now, one may claim that he was reduced to mush at the end of 4-4, but if you go back to the V2 Fight animation, Ichellor's version of V2 didn't 'die'. He only powered off after loosing all of it's limbs. The chest and the head still remained. Guess what we see in that cold tower of steel?
@@trueHardWork Ichellor's version of V2 got his head crushed at the end by V1. The Earthmover's Core in this version just resembles the V models but is not one of them.

V1 probably could go full Metal Gear Rising on the Earthmover if it wanted. It’s not like fighting titans much larger than itself is anything new for the machine - look at Minos and the Leviathan
@@Stryfe52 True, but the EarthMover has a built-in shield generator (When V1 parries the EarthMover's ricoshot, you can see it takes it some time to break through the shield), so shooting it until it dies isn't an option. In-game, infiltrating the Earthmovers is the only way for V1 to destroy them

Considering V1 was made to perfectly counter the Earthmovers, he had all thing necessary to defeat such beasts.
(Earthmovers were build at the latest part of the great war and were the deciding factor, V1 was the last machine designed for the war but the war ended before it's deployment, so he came later than the Earthmovers. And with the statement from the Terminal Entries "every machine is build to counter the last" we can be sure of that one).

Love how earthmover doesn't have any desire of holding back, only increasing lethality as the fight progresses
It increases lethality because it has never seen another supreme machine that wasn’t another earthmover, as such it started at what usually kills any smaller machines and scaled from there
But yes, it is amazing.
Would have preferred a fight like this to fighting across it then killing its brain
@@boakley8147 yeah, as strong as V1 is even with their arsenal I don't think the armor of earthmover is thin. Even though it was shielded I think it'd still be armored to the nines.
If you look in the logs you can find on the earthmover ingame you can find that each machine was made to surpass the next. the Earthmover was the last one made in production before the war ended. V1 never went in to full production but was made after the Earthmover. This means that V1 was made to take down these things. and I think rather than the noise it makes at the start instead of being a Roar or anything rather is a scream of terror.

Wich means that, if war continued, V1 models would have been given a name, and they would have become the standard infantry. The horror of a war where V1 is the common soldier.

The Earthmovers were the pinnacle of the arms race. Often called the horsemen of the apocalypse, it took only one to level an entire city and leave nothing but fire in its wake. The last era of the Final War had begun.
The first machines large enough to house a shield generator, these walking fortresses could only be made vulnerable from within, making them the frontline for smaller, more mobile machines. Due to their colossal size, they required both blood and solar power to function.
When the final era escalated, cleansing the world with fire, the surviving civilians were forced to evacuate and build new homes on the backs of these machines, as the surface became an inhospitable wasteland where no flora or fauna could flourish.
Eventually the soot, smoke and decay from unending global war would blot out the sun, casting the world into the Long Night, and Earthmovers, unable to feed on sunlight, shut down and died out one by one.
War had become entirely dependent on them, large scale conflict was no longer feasible. Finally, mankind started to work together to reverse the effects of the Long Night climate catastrophe, and so began the New Peace. 200 years of war for its own sake ended not with a bang, but utter silence.
At the brink of despair, the planet would slowly learn to breathe once more, and the corpses of these titans would serve as a stark reminder of just how close mankind was to an apocalypse by their own hand.
STRATEGY:
- Each part of the security system is immobile, making them very vulnerable to attacks that would otherwise easily miss, such as Freeze Frame rockets.
- Some of the gaps in the main computer room's defense grid are too high up for a normal jump, but the elevated edges of the room can be used to get higher. More adept movers may instead jump immediately after a ground slam to gain enough height.

Speaking of this book. Most people interpret it as Hell speaking to V1.
I intend to show a different view, however. I believe the book is a letter of admiration, written by Hell itself. An admiration to the Earthmover, to the machines, to the abhorrent cruelty that humans could do. They have become so cruel and self-destructive that even Hell itself was fascinated.
"War no longer needed its ultimate practitioner. It had become a self-sustaining system. Man was crushed under the wheels of a machine created to create the machine, to crush the machine. Samsara of cut sinew and crushed bone. Death without life. Null ouroboros. All that remained was war without reason."

The supreme machine, V1, stand still as it watches its enemy, 1000-THR Earthmover, bend on their knees. V1 walks slowly towards the Earthmover. The Earthmover, knowing its destruction is near, raise its once supposed-spear into the air and speaks of its last words.
"This is the only way it could have ended."
V1 stops at its track.
"War no longer needed its ultimate practicioner. It had become a self-sustaining system..."
"Man was crushed under the wheels of the machine created to create the machine created to crush the machine."
The Earthmover trusts its once supposed-spear into the hot sand below.
"Samsara of cut sinew and crush bone."
V1 interrupts the Earthmover "Death without life."
"Null ouroboros!" The Earthmover shouts in defience.
"All that remained is war without reason..." The Earthmover says while its head facing the sand.
A moment of silence happens, but is quickly broken by V1.
"A magnum opus." V1 says, before the Earthmover looks back at V1.
"A cold... tower of steel." V1 continues to say, as if mocking the Earthmover.
"A machine built to end war, is always a machine built to continue war." The Earthmover replied to V1's sarcasm.
"You were beautiful, outstretched like antennas to heaven." V1 says while slowly tilting its head.
"You were beyond your creators." V1 continues.
"You reached out for god,"
Then the Earthmover interrupts it.
"And YOU fell..." The Earthmover says.
"None were left to speak your eulogy." V1 replied.
"No final words. No concluding statement."
"No point. Perfect closure." The Earthmover interrupts V1 again.
V1 grab its railgun and points it at the Earthmover.
"THIS IS THE ONLY WAY IT SHOULD HAVE ENDED"
The deep voice is the Earthmover.
@@ionisator1I feel like it's an interpretation due to the voices switching during some sentences or fitting for the other
It's actually hell saying this. The dialogue came from a book somewhere on the Earthmover, and it was made to communicate with V1.
2:56 "you cant just parry a nuke"
Holy shit, the chills from the ending. Both of these ancient machines, their creators long dead, bereft of purpose, fighting to the death not just because it's what they were built to do, but because they had nothing else they *could* do. Phenomenal work.
One could say that the only they they know for real is that there will be bloodshed.
You could say it's a War Without Reason
One might say they have nothing else to do but ULTRAKILL

You always make the hardest ultrakill animations, this is so sick!!! I love how you did the ending, definitely your best work yet!
Hi dude your animation are also sick
i like how the earthmover has more weapons to its arsenal to defend itself from smaller targets rather than just the spear
its made for the sake of an all-duty machine
Would make sense tbh afterall there truly is no bigger machine than the earthmover and based off the Gutters spawn animation I'd assume most machines would be airdropped into battle
Considering the fact that the only thing bigger enough to even damage an earthmover is another earthmover, its strategically perfect to create a ultimate machine with a heck ton of security mechanisms so not even a single thing would even think about climbing it and killing the workers.
@@randompurpleslime8963
Everything is fine, until people start airdropping Earthmovers
@@davisdf3064 There is nothing left we can do now
I honestly expected it to be basically a walking fortress covered in missile launchers, railguns, rotating gatling guns, AA Cannons, and anything else that'd be loaded onto a giant war machine
I think it'd be silly for something of this scale to just have this atomizing spear as the only weapon
At 3:38 I noticed the Missile was pointed at a slight angle upwards. As to give lift in order to accompany it's rider. Very good attention to detail.
On one hand I'm such a huge fan of War Without Reason that I was a bit disappointed that you went with the P-2 theme, but you really made it work for this fight! I nearly flipped when Benjamin unleashed its own coin attack.
2:42, did Benjamin just, flick a giant coin, and shoot it with the laser, that has to be the coolest thing I've seen today instant like on the video

@@ArceTheTrollhe used to exist, but died from a drug overdose down at the fraud layer after gambling
@@veeyoooh seems like it
Honestly, i keep rewatching this for the most part because of the end sequence. You really managed to hammer in how scary v1 is. Not only is he a war machine, who does not make room for human emotion and reasoning in his circuits, but his presence instills fear into other machines. I think this was portrayed greatly by giving the brain an Iris witch v1 lacks. At that moment v1 isn't merely a thing, but almost a conduit for Hells desires. It's war that lead v1 to being created, and now he's become the prime example of what brought him into existence.
ithint the iris might just have been the reflction of v1s "face"
I fucking love the Earthmover's war horn
His roar isn't actually a war cry, he's just shitting himself because he knows what you were built for

@@V1_From_UltrakiII what's your opinion on this image of a blue GoPro
@@bigdued7039 f*ck that thing
Dude, with every video you make, your work just keeps getting better and better! Keep it up, it’s amazing!
This animation made the earthmover more of a threat than how it was presented in the actual level.
The Earthmover was a bigger threat in the level. He was the ENTIRE LEVEL. That single lighting spear could pierce through hell to heaven. Like it's called "...like antennas to heaven" his distant friend shot him for a reason. Infact, the earthmovers were so powerful, they had to be welded to flesh so they don't move.
@@gneu1527 yeah
still disappointing though.
Exactly, could have had missile launchers and cannons like how it was in the video
@@thebaseandtriflingcreature174
Entire Level? Yes. And it was Pathetic.
To give player climax i would made fight a two part.
First part is there all EarthMovers are present (Pestilense, Famine, Death and War) all fight with each other and combined armies of machines, heaven and hell on the burn to glass fields. After first earthshattering shots of EarthMovers nothing left there three armies stood. Then they focus on eachother and you, you need to dodge secondary weapons and wait then main weapon will fire to coin deflect it to lesser EarthMovers to destroy them one by one. After only WAR is left you start boss fight with him just as show in the video...
Last EarthMover destroyed player moves to next layer barely able to breath from all adrenaline in the system.
I think y'all are forgetting the entire premise that our side won because we were GEARED TO COUNTER IT. Earthmovers were made in an absurdly fast scaling race where people either made bigger guns or strapped the guns on something that was too armored to be able to dodge missiles. Its shield was able to block any high-grade weapon and had enough plating to be impervious to small arms fire. Any attempt to bring powerful weaponry close to it would have been squashed by a single shot of lightning spear.
V1 is a small, absurdly fast by any standards, target with more guns than its frame looks like it should be able to operate simultaneously and an arm of which the parrying ability needs a ludicrous amount of firepower, lasers, or melee prowess to bypass, and acquired an enhanced degree of movement with the whiplash it only could have gotten otherwise if the war continued. It didnt *feel* that threatening because with the main gun being occupied by the other giraffe, (and it would probably not have shot itself after V1 got on it*) all it had were its point defenses that were not designed for a literal one robot army.
In a previous comment I posted on the absurdity of the coins and the things they can do, and I still believe that the coins are a bit much. HOWEVER, the nonsense of the coins is null, void of any point, thus means nothing. On my rewatch I enjoyed myself and found the animation, story telling, and basically everything else to be incredible. Then I noticed something new, the way V1 parried that punch from 6:06 made me realize that they were toying with the 1000-THR, pulling off stunts to make the EARTHMOVER look pitiful in comparison. We know what happens if V1 Really wanted the 1000-THR dead, in the base game V1 just took out his brain and that was it. THIS fight however... was for enjoyment. The thrill of destroying the thing the V models were made to destroy. What an incredible animation.
Given the other animation against V2 using V1’s voice as the calm female, there’s something so beautiful about the debate they have.
“War no longer needed its ultimate practitioner. It had become a self sustaining system.”
There’s a inward look of a machine like V1 talking about the thing it was literally made for that’s so beautiful and haunting- as a ‘sentient fucking go pro,’ as is often joked about, it knows very well what its purpose is and what it is designed to accomplish. It’s a killing machine, adaptive and smart: limited only by its own scope of vision.
The earthmover, the deep, cruel male speaker voice begins “man was crushed under the wheels of the machine,” referring to itself, only to be hacked off, both in combat and verbally, by V1’s rebuke. “Created to create the machine, to crush the machine.”
Man’s folly was never setting aside differences and coming together, arguably the only thing that could’ve changed their fate- in their hubris to out do one another, they ceased to exist. While I’m not sure on the specifics, ‘Samsara’ is a Hindu concept, which by the way is a religion that is mostly about harmony and peace according to their prayers, in which Samsara is described as “running around in circles.” “A samsara of cut sinew and crushed bone,” referring to the folly of V1’s quest, and the way they’re just like humans.
Feeding off other creatures just to survive.
V1 retorts that it’s just death without life, a ‘null ouroboros,’ which is interesting: it originates in Egypt, and refers to death and rebirth. For it to be a Null Cycle as they call it, would point that V1 doesn’t care, or seems to say “we’re just machines: we were never alive.”
But the Earthmover has a crushing counter- “all that remained is war without reason.” Despite being commentary on the insanity of such war happening that humans would cease, it’s more than that- “if we are never alive, then we did not think. There was never a reason for us to fight in the first place, with no humans to guide us.”
The magnum opus refers more in an ironic sense- that on a cosmic scale they were a piece of art whirling by. But V1 shows almost hate in their words: “a cold tower of steel,” as if somehow V1 doesn’t like what it or they are.
And v1 begins that a machine built to end war is always to continue war, but is joined in harmony by the earthmover, proclaiming the same speech- as if robots of all sizes humans made arrived to that conclusion.
We don’t know how long v1 has been in hell- the missions are played through in less than 20 minutes, but it’s hell, there’s no way of knowing. But it’s clear the earthmover has been here a while, continuing its war because it’s all it knows.
Then V1 back pedals- it calls the earthmover beautiful. It may be my own personal introspection, but it sounds almost remorseful that it had to come to this. As said by the earthmover as its first words, “this was the only way it could have ended.” That both knew what would come of meeting, but, the Earthmover indulges V1.
“Outstretched like antennas to heaven.” It knew it was a folly of man from the start- a walking steel tower designed to crush and maim the “others” humanity declared so terrible. There’s a tragedy in the way the voice tells V1, “you were beyond your creators. You reached out for god.” As if it was something the engine of war could never aspire for- never hope for. Even if V1 is obeying its programming to a degree, they respond that “you fell. None were left to speak your eulogy.” It sounds cruel, but it’s the way things are for them; the machine continued its war down into hell. Perhaps the other side of the war is who they were from- but it doesn’t matter now.
V1 could not reach god. And like what goes up, the mighty tower went down.
“No final words, no concluding statement,” showing their mirrors of eachother even now. The Earthmover’s brain looks just like V1- a reflection across. All they miss is the legs and arms and wings, and they could be seen the same.
“No point.” “Perfect closure.” The V1 was designed to deal with targets like this. Assassinate, infiltrate and divide.
As they rip its eye out and crush it, the final words are “this is the only way it should have ended.” V1 echoes the sentiment- it’s the end of ‘life’ for the earthmover, but to V1?
*It’s just another meal.*
Few points for context, it's implied V1 was specifically made to take down the Earthmover, so it's V1 seeing what it was made to destroy and The Earthmover seeing the machine meant to kill it.
I think in Earthmover lore, when they couldn't get sunlight they all outstretched their arms to the heavens as they died, almost as if asking for God to save them.
I belive it's said that blood itself gives life and sentience, so all the machines became self aware with infused with it. While they have programing, they aren't bound by it, they feel.
I like to think of a quote from Gabrial when considering this "We all bleed the same blood"
According to the cutscenes, V1 has been on Hell for a single day. He went from Prelude to the end of Act II in a single day, since Gabriel was given less than 24 hours to defeat V1.
Those final 3 lines you said were hard AF
Okay I don't understand how hard it is to understand, but this is from a book from 7-4
This is not V1 or the Earthmover, it is from Hell speaking to V1 from a book.
@@mattdayman461 perhaps Hell was speaking through the Earthmover in this animation. And then after the Earthmover is dead, V1 repeats the statement.
And yes, we know in the game it is text from a book in the level, but this is a fan animation, artistic license.
amazing animation i love how you took artistic liberties and added your own stuff it really makes your animation unique
edit : especially the extra weapons really make the earthmover more dangerous
5:31 as much as the Action is so amazing in this video, everytime I watch this the ending has to be my favourite part, the line "SAMSARA OF CUT SINEW AND CRUSHED BONE. DEATH WITHOUT LIFE. NULL OUROBOROS. ALL THAT REMAINED WAS WAR WITHOUT REASON." Has to be the one of hardest parts of any poem I've read, I think the only other poem that is in the same realm for meaning and power behind it is The View From Halfway Down from Bojack Horseman "I wish I could've known about the view from halfway down". But the robotic voices used for the Audio for this poem makes it hit so hard, because it genuinely feels like V1 has empathy for the THR-1000, and since V1 was designed to take down the THR-1000, it is the only way, this could have ended.
You might wonder how V1 could possibly fight a Supreme Machine like the Earthmover, when his own size is but a speck of dust in comparison to the humongous mountain of metal and death that stands before him
But what many people often forget... is that V1 is _also_ a Supreme Machine
And it's implied that V1 was specifically built to take out earthmovers
V1 is not a supreme machine, he’s an ULTRAMACHINE
atp considering both Earthmover and V2 are dead, V1 is THE supreme machine
The fact he was made to regen completly and refuel completly also the moment blood touched his skin, and make coins out of the iron in the blood just show how abnormally op that mf V1 was

V1 is implied to have been made to solo them
The hype that comes with seeing ths man upload is unreal. Also that shadow animation at the beginning was fire asf!
What the heck? I just found out about that channel, and I've been watching and rewatching some of the channel's videos for like, 2 hours straight, and suddenly, when I am about to close RUclips, that video pops up.
It's like a dessert after a whole-ass banquet!
the red text saying “LONG NIGHT” hits hard, since from what i remember, the earthmovers produced too much steam or smth, they also were solar powered, but the steam blocked out the sun, and this was called LONG NIGHT or whatever
the humans had to live on the backs of earthmovers ever since i think
You're right. They produced so much smoke from leveling the entire planet and any city they saw, all the smoke blocked out the sun
More or less. Before the long night, the humans which lived on top of the 1000 thrs survived the 1000 thrs. The explosions from the 1000 thrs were the ones to cause the long night, with cinder, smoke and debris blocking the sun just like nuclear winter, or the extinction of the dinosaurs
You're right. The Earthmovers created so much smoke from destroying everything that it blocked out the sun.
And humanity chose to live on these titans of steel because there wouldn't have been any safer place with all the other machines like Guttermen and Guttertanks roaming the earth. Plus due to the energy shields, Earthmovers can't destroy each other, so they're immune to attack from others of their kind
Any animation that treats v1 like Goku gets a kudos from me
This video serves as a reminder to me of how V1 is considered a fatal threat for everyone.
This right here and in the level itseld, where Benjamin sees what to him, a single ant. Yet immediately locked in and charges his Antenna in order to eliminate the ant as soon as posssible.
I don't think it's similar to Corpse of King Minos fight. Although comparable in size, Minos's Corpse was only a husk. But Benjamin is sentient and he goes all out against us.
This video serves the justice to Benjamin's attempt to survive V1. I love it
imagine a 3 benjamin gaunlet in P-3 or something, it'd be cool
Yoooo, Ultrakill Frontiers!
Okay but seriously this right here was some truly INCREDIBLE work!

This is the coolest ultrakill fan animation I've ever seen!! Wtf!!!
You all know that if we didn't restrain it with the roots of the trees of life in the last level than we would have this much more intense fight
I doubt it, earthmovers were not created to do this, they weren't made to deal with extremely small extremely quick targets like v1. They were made to just destroy whole cities and armies, and as a result they're slow since investing into speed was unnecessary, same goes for any weapon other than the lance and defense system.
It's not the roots of the tree of life (I think), in Dante's Inferno in the 3rd ring of violence (violent crimes against God, Art, and Nature) if you stand still/take a break for even a moment you will be stuck to the burning sand for 100 years, so it's probably this.
Now I'm sure, that I'll learn whole Dante's Inferno by ULTRAKILL's comment sections
Probably the best ultrakill animation I have ever seen.
It's criminally illegal to be this underrated you should have gotten atleast a million plus for this amazing animation
This has got to be one of the coolest animations I've ever seen. The set design, the sound design, the actual feel of the earthmover as this huge machine. It really did this level justice, and the quietness of the end after the fight just really hammers home the tone of Ultrakill. As goofy as it can be, it's also serious and somber with the story it's trying to tell. 10/10, looking forward to more animations.
I don't know what kind of eldritch sacrifice you made to make this fight seem even more like an epic power fantasy than it does in the game, but whatever it was, it was definitely worth it. From the screen ratio changes to the new additions to the Earthmover's kit, to the amazing use of the landscape to the animation's advantage, to the incorporation of "WAR WITHOUT REASON" and "LIKE ANTENNAS TO HEAVEN" to the post-battle speech. This is so far one of your best animations yet, and I really hope you get more recognition for this.
He should
They made it a more epic power fantasy by having V1 fight Earthmover HEAD ON LIKE YOU'RE FUCKING RAIDEN FROM METAL GEAR RISING TAKING DOWN THE EXCELSUS.
In game you kill it more like a parasite kills a host, taking the easier route of getting inside and striking it where its weak.
Fun fact: the final speech is written on a book on the back of the earthmover in an alley after the defense system
And from the looks it wasn't the books contents, but Hell itself jacking V1's comms module to give him those "Recordings".
Hell literaly mocked Humanity AND V1, because perchance it is provoking V1's path down to the very last Layer of Hell, both knowing full well how this trip will end, Hell devoid of any leftover soul and the Machines dead by starvation or the infighting that will happen once the last non machine source of blood is consumed, V1 included.
That "talk" truly has some depth depending on how schizo you want to go with it
