In the game, usual human heretics is killed with one shot and are basicaly a cannon fodder for chaos, but sometimes they drop a greanade upon dying which can damage you a fair bit. It's a good example how an ingame mechanic can portray lore inderectly and in a clever way.

I love how the game is filled with scenes like this.

I love how these games provide such a lively world that you can so easily miss.
Considering in lore, standard space marines prior to the primaris, were able to take bullet wounds to the eye, unarmored. Said wound was considered minor due to the healing capability of an astartes. Unless the piece of rebar also pierced the point where the brain and spine meet, he should have survived the explosion due to the armor being still intact.
Considering on tabletop, a squad of space marines can be killed to a man by a squad of guardsmen fixing bayonets and charging, he got lucky there was enough to put into a Dreadnought afterwards.
Unless you consider that the attack was with flames too. His brain could be partial burned... Even a human IRL can survive a pierced skull & brain. It always depends on which part is destroyed. And the actual lore is in the tabletop rules. GW says (excuse) that books are historical records. Embelished, exagerated and often censored...
Near the end of the campaign when a... character... is... saying... things to the main characters, every player hears something unique to their character. Most people didn't play the campaign coop meaning they recorded voice lines that people are unlikely to ever hear for the sake of consistency. The attention to detail in the game is pretty impressive.
Probably a reference to when the Tau fought the Ultramarines on Malbede, then allied with them to fight the Necrons that awoke as a result of the clash. Hope to see the Tau portrayed in a game of this quality soon (and hopefully not as milksop punching bags)
@@AK-dr1ddYep. He couldve shot or jumped back 20 feat from the guy who triggered the explosion the moment he moved a muscle. Likewise in the game Titus and his companions stomping around is nothing compared to actual Astartes speed. They got the pysical power down but not the speed. Astartes could never fight Eldar if they werent comparative in speed.
Their is soooo much hidden environmental lore in the game its crazy and so cool to look at even in the swamps you can see how members of astartes teams were wiped out by the tyrnids the body's and blood trials and even melta burns this game has amazing detail
Sounds like the rail rifle almost bagged two Marines. Pathfinders typically carry the smaller ones, had it been a heavy rail rifle both Marines would be dead outright, no deflecting that.
I never saw this, but as for the many other details I bore witness too, I can say these are the parts that make me really appreciate the campaign. This game is absolute cinema.
Is this the state of gaming? It didn't feel like a small detail. It's just normal/good world building. Things that happen around you have consequences. It's not that impressive
Skittering masses that want to digest you, things with claws and teeth, acid, flying things, viral bombs... seems like a FANTASTIC place to take off my helmet.
Helmetless space marines being a sign of a nigh unkillable main character has been a Warhammer trope for actual decades. It's tradition at this point, and if you wanted a setting that always makes sense you came to the wrong one lol.
i always wonder how protective their power armour is, every description made of them so impervious - akin to a walking tank (terminator armour) yet just about any weapon in the galaxy can penetrate them. that small bomb should only be able to shake them at least
He should’ve taken off his helmet. Statistics even during ww1, when helmets became standard issue, indicates that head injuries always go up when soldiers wear helmets. This is the year 40k ffs. They had 38000 years to learn.
I didn't make this connection when I played, because I had several real-life days in between the two scenes. I thought the memorial was just a bit of story flavour and hadn't realised it was the same marine who died in the mission.
And yet they didn’t manage to think add the sergeants helm to any other sergeants and the cutscenes are still broken where your helmet isn’t on even if you have the option on
I still think the game was meant to be without a helmet since you get poisoned by the floaters and brambles, but with a environmentally sealed helmet that lets the marines be in the vacuum of space wouldn’t be poisoned

Maybe not every guardsmen but every Cadian recruit would've done better in their place.
That's neat and all, but I'm just confused because we're talking about Space Marines here, not only does he have ludicrously fast reflexes but also remember that the game opens with someone wearing an older model of armor and it kept him unscathed when he fell from orbit while here an upgraded version was completely punched through by an IED. Feels like a pretty easy to spot mistake in the directing/writing that could be easily fixed by having him kill the cultists with everyone else, only to be then grievously injured by the KSons that appear right after
Well, it busted his comms in the helmet, which are internal so that's a LOT of damage to the head, and that chunk of rebar went straight into the eye, very likely the weakest point in any helmet. Let alone that A. He probably didn't even know it was a bomb until it went off, and/or B. There's side dialogue suggesting he jumped between the squad and the explosion, intentionally taking it to save them.
Apparently people are saying that didn't even kill him and that Tech Priests are later heard talking about putting him in a Dreadnaught So it must've just knocked him unconscious or paralyzed him somehow
Would he qualify for the stripe being as he was fatally wounded as a Deathguard and then resurrected as a Primaris? UM to DG to Primaris UM, demoted too. Wouldn't he now be ranked as a noob Primaris, albeit a lieutenant? I'm not up to speed on the nuances of Primaris stature as yet, so I'm spitballing. Thing is, his service studs give his status away immediately either way. The actual thing that frustrated me in SM2 was that even though Calgar and many other high ranking Ultramarines signed off on Titus being reinstated as a Primaris at lieutenant, then why was the 2nd Company Captain, and Sargent Gadriel giving Titus a load of ball ache. That's bad form. You'd expect Calgar's word to be solid enough that not one marine below Chapter Master would question it. But... we could probably expect someone such as Leandros to sew a little discontent there I suppose, and with him now being a Chaplain for the 2nd Company, it'd be interesting to see how Titus and Leandros get along as part of Calgar's personal retinue.
I'm not a video editor, but look at the hammerfall bunker in the mission after this one. When it's firing, bolter rounds are coming out of the heavy flamers mounted to the bunker.
Why should it? If you expect things like this from every game no wonder people like you are always miserable and disappointed about every game release.
@@CaptainSkylocke I'm not miserable every game release, but you can't deny the quality of AAA games the last 5 years has been trash. I'd argue your standard is just very low. Any decently written story weaves back in references to previous events, to accentuate the impact on the World Space Marine 2 is a damn good game. Room for improvement, but an easy 7.5 - 8 / 10
Is space marine armor made of ceramite or cardboard or what? It should withstand improvised explosives like this easily, especially if the helmet was on.
Don't forget that explosions create shockwaves and shockwaves will shake the armour and make it spall, which might be mitigated by their advanced power armour and the Black Carapce Also, he has rebar sticking out of his eye
@@CaptainGrief66 Why talk about spall lmao. There is stuff under their armor and such an explosion wouldn't create much spall at that distance.. And even then I doubt such spall would kill a spacemarine since they are already modified humans.
Also in the armory you can hear two tech priests talking about how he is going to be put in a dreadnaught
Doesn't that mean he is still alive then?

Idk why people are upset about the rebar killing varellus. If it was strong enough to go through the eye lens, it definitely destroyed his brain
Apparently people are saying that didn't even kill him and that Tech Priests are later heard talking about putting him in a Dreadnaught
So it must've just knocked him unconscious or paralyzed him somehow
Cause Space Marine fans are up there with Goku and Batman fans for thinking their chosen overlord is infallible.
Their brain maybe faster than normal but the body has limits to movement
@@bruticus1496 Plus there's some side dialogue about he might've jumped between the squad and the bomb, taking the full brunt of it intentionally.
Anyone else see the pun in the captains name and the scene of the marines death, didn’t look like a fair burn, no such thing as fair burns
Hello there.
Amazing game!
Bugs me they forgot the veteran stripe tho
First thing I said when I saw that in-game
Would he qualify for the stripe being as he was fatally wounded as a Deathguard and then resurrected as a Primaris? UM to DG to Primaris UM, demoted too. Wouldn't he now be ranked as a noob Primaris, albeit a lieutenant? I'm not up to speed on the nuances of Primaris stature as yet, so I'm spitballing.
Thing is, his service studs give his status away immediately either way.
The actual thing that frustrated me in SM2 was that even though Calgar and many other high ranking Ultramarines signed off on Titus being reinstated as a Primaris at lieutenant, then why was the 2nd Company Captain, and Sargent Gadriel giving Titus a load of ball ache. That's bad form. You'd expect Calgar's word to be solid enough that not one marine below Chapter Master would question it. But... we could probably expect someone such as Leandros to sew a little discontent there I suppose, and with him now being a Chaplain for the 2nd Company, it'd be interesting to see how Titus and Leandros get along as part of Calgar's personal retinue.
Shouldn't the helmet in his room have a stripe like his? or is the armor in the room more just ceremonial
The real Hero, he helps the Cadians
YOU MUST ALWAYS HELP THE CADIANS
Brother, please, it is my turn on the simulated combat station, brother captain have said so.
BIONICLE IN WARHAMMER COMFIRMED????
WTF are you talking about? Bionicle probably ripped off 40k
Bionicle is just plastic Necrons😂
Yes, the author made a cringy title
I’m actually pro cringe man, no hate, real
Primaris couldn't handle a small bomb meanwhile OG space marines surviving without a limb or two
Да, видно насколько разрабы вообще углубились в детали и как сильно гв им помогало. Респект!
"Damn him. *I* wanted the release of death"
I'm not a video editor, but look at the hammerfall bunker in the mission after this one. When it's firing, bolter rounds are coming out of the heavy flamers mounted to the bunker.
I came across this as well during my first playthrough
These cheap titles should be punished by law
Tau main here who hasnt played the game wasnt expecting that mention haha, does tau come up more?
No
I mean, is this really special? Stuff like this should be expected from a game
Why should it? If you expect things like this from every game no wonder people like you are always miserable and disappointed about every game release.
@@CaptainSkylocke I'm not miserable every game release, but you can't deny the quality of AAA games the last 5 years has been trash.
I'd argue your standard is just very low. Any decently written story weaves back in references to previous events, to accentuate the impact on the World
Space Marine 2 is a damn good game. Room for improvement, but an easy 7.5 - 8 / 10
I don't get it...
I noticed that, it’s an awesome detail
Is space marine armor made of ceramite or cardboard or what? It should withstand improvised explosives like this easily, especially if the helmet was on.
Don't forget that explosions create shockwaves and shockwaves will shake the armour and make it spall, which might be mitigated by their advanced power armour and the Black Carapce
Also, he has rebar sticking out of his eye
@@CaptainGrief66 Why talk about spall lmao.
There is stuff under their armor and such an explosion wouldn't create much spall at that distance..
And even then I doubt such spall would kill a spacemarine since they are already modified humans.
"one degree of deflection" is so hilarious
Vengeance, for brother Varellus' left eye
