I'm a bit confused as to why he didn't, say, use some of those bots to build radio transmitters of his own to extend the range in which his droids to travel outside the tower, or develop better weapons or why he didn't recycle the junkier bots to make thicker armor plating on the ones in better condition. I suppose it's possible that he simply had limiters programmed into him to prevent that. He clearly posses the ability to be creative at least to a point, so without such limiters he'd have been a LOT more dangerous.
He says he predicted a 40% chance Lilly Shen would turn against him. Probably due to finding out about his advent stuff. So he thought it was too risky not to attack.

You know looking at this anarchy children skins Bradford must've thinking to himself: "Kids those days, wear impractial armor that barely covers their tits... i miss good old days, Commander and my sweater"
"Yes, it goes without saying that you are walking into a trap." *later* "We've got a problem!" "Yes, That would be that trap I reference earlier." Lol.
Dr. Shen was always so patient, generous and whise. He never dared to cross the line to inhumane methods as Dr. Valen loved to. It was really troubling for me to learn that he was no more. And this cutszene with his farewell to Lilly... just blew my heart to shreds. Poor Reymond Shen... I guess that is what makes a good character: the mark it leaves on you, watching.
even better: he says something that really resonated with the inhuman stuff we did in xcom EW. :"We have to keep moving forward with the project, but the thought of treading the same path as the aliens... is troubling. What if they were like us once? Are we just part of a continuing cycle? If this is a glimpse of our future, I want no part of it."
I thought that Enemy Within as an expansion was a bit contradictory to everything that Dr. Shen believed in. Would've thought that he would've been able to figure out how to create mechs without... "choppy choppy time." I kinda got around this dilemma by creating mechs out of my gravely wounded soldiers that got absolutely messed up in tactical combat but somehow managed to survive. Definitely fit a bit more, rather than just making a decision one day that YOU, Capt. Sasha Jacobs, are going to get your arms and legs chopped off, because CHOPPY CHOPPY TIME.
I've mixed feelings of Julian's last lines there. On one hand it was hilarious, but on the other it was kinda terrifying. Lily essentially lobotomized, brainwashed, and enslaved an extremely humanlike AI, and apparently didn't have the courtesy to remove said AI's ability to realize that. I dunno if Julian was capable of feeling fear, but if he can, I can only imagine his shear terror at the end there.
Julian is a sadist so by not removing his personality she had essentially showed him that he wasn’t the higher life form he believed himself to be. His anger was fear of imprisonment, it was realization of his mortality that frightened him
I did this last night. Really early in the game. I didn't even have 5 squada mates. I kept them all alive tho. It was on normal but given that's it's xcom, I'm still proud I pulled it off.
If Alien Hunters added more mechanism to the game, Shen's last gift added more to the story. This DLC not only show more than just fighting back, but also Dr. Shen's ability to think of the big picture, and willing to trust his daughter to carry his legacy years before XCOM2. SPARK is a great name for the MECs, not only representating the spark in humanity, but also Dr. Shen's spark kept for Lily after so many years. It is not a complicated mission, but it brought so much to story telling of the franchise.
lol yeah. Chess AI program your dad made, get seized by enemy and goes sentient. He realized midway that IF ONLY his approach was more friendly, they could goes as family. But, alas. In the end, he get what he wanted anyway. so...
OK I may be missing something but if Julien has an entire manufacturing facility and is capable of designing his own mechs then... why not just build his own body?
Because the mecs the facility makes suck even for normal mec standards, and aren't nearly capable of being a vessel for advanced AI the type of julian. He seems to be mostly going off advents designs and using old, rusty parts, which is good enough if you just want canon fodder, but not really if you want a working body. He started thinking significantly slower and lost some memories while being in the sectopod, getting in one of the old mecs would probably make him mentally regressed.
Well because the facility is designed to mass produce a specific design. It would be like trying to pump out tanks out of a car factory, feasible but you need the personal to make the changes.
Fun fact: Originally, Julian was supposed to be a leader of a mechanical-oriented faction in the WOTC expansion. Like the Reapers and the Skirmishers, Julian’s faction was to have a rivalry with the Templars. The faction would also have, like the other factions, a Chosen adversary. This Chosen would be a grenadier-type enemy. Unfortunately, insufficient funds made this impossible, thus reducing Julian to only a small DLC.
Didn't know about the "uncheck integrate dlc" thing so I'm not doing this mission in my current campaign. Good job with your "integration" firaxxis, skipping content sure is good and the wording on those specifications sure is clear to understand. Anyways thanks for the cutscenes man, at least i get to see what the deal about this is.
i feel sorry for julian because while he is a very corrupted AI, we just broke him even further by dissecting his mind and ripping out bits we didn't like, if someone did that to my brain i would rather just die than continue living..
I think xcom 3 should have some more action cutscenes and story. It feels like a grind because the game is really replayable but feels boring with the story and minimal cutscenes. Maybe have more branching story arcs like an RPG and have the commander be a permanent playable character that cannot be killed but can be wounded/unconscious and easily extracted if the mission fails. Would have been awesome to have a cutscene showing spark cutting down lots of robots that Julian sends at us and then sacrifice himself to save the rest. He gets picked up damaged and then repaired by Lily to serve us later.
karankenZ your missing the point if XCOM, it's a tactical strategy game first. any cutscenes and story lines we get is frankly a nice bonus. I'd hate if the game depended heavily in the story to be playable, that makes the game a little less playable.
Shen says something like "Er.. commander Julian hasn't.. actually been destroyed as of yet.. he uploaded himself to the Avenger but I've isolated him in a seperate drive. You know, he could be a good SPARK AI, with all the higher reasoning portions cut out" Which leads to picking him as a custom voice where he goes "WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME, HOW COULD YO- Awaiting command."
yes, but he got the body he asked for anyways, and there is plenty of time for catching up, and progressions in terms of repairs and adjustments if you know what i mean
I modded the bojangles out of my SPARK units... I now have a slider to increase/decrease size: SPARK is now 9 feet tall Modded in the MEC Mortar launchers: SPARK can now lob those annoying cluster mortarts. Modded in new voices: ... SPARK is now CABAL from C&C:Tiberian Sun. They tremble at my coming.
ookay...this facility was built by advent...so the prototype wasn't built there....why advent moved the whole stuff here(with the pre recorded message and stuff....they got an effing psi alien cyphering technology on their hands)...OR if it was built by julian and the advent together following the instruction of the original design then.... why do they included the pre recorded message?
Nagytika well, simply because the prototype was not from the facility, but moved there by Julian to try and upload himself into it. However he realised far too late that there was that failsafe only Lily could disable.
@@carlosalmonacid8958 Oh wait, I finally remember now. In portal 2, there's a hidden old area of the facility just below the main one where half of Portal 2 and the entirely of Portal 1 took place. It's also rusty and decayed.
Julian, sadistic murderer without any profit to X-com --> saved and only difference he made in comparison to the original software is that he feels pleasure in killing. Viper king - rare male species, prisoner, who just escape lab (which make cruel experiment on him and even made autopsy on him), who can turn entire viper race fight against Advent ----> get killed with all his wife, daughter and even unhatched baby, and after they stripped off the scales ta make clothes, like the Nazis in Buchenwald, and put his scull on his head, like the African tribes. and the scales and heads of his daughters were hung up in the headquarters like psychopaths. And not yet hatched babies or sold on black marker or killed or even being eaten. Are we really playing for the good guys?
Julian: Allow me to introduce you to one of ADVENT's more effective designs. I had hoped to avoid this contingency but you have left me no choice. If I cannot have the SPARK no one shall. Raymond Shen's legacy will end here today. I did beat this mission with the Laser Weapon & Jedi right before the Plasma Weapon but I did beat Shen's Last Gift again but this time in War of the Chosen with the Reaper & Templar & I love the Sniper using a Shotgun (Storm Gun) instead of Sniper Rifle (Plasma Lance) & EVA made a WALL-E becomes a fighting robot that can use BIT as a grenade or fires any heavy weapons like Blaster Launcher perhaps? 😉
That mission sucked i had no idea what i was getting in to and i just started the game with bare minimum soldiers trying to fight Julian it did not end well and took me like 25 turns because the only person that could do shit was Shen
Drake Neumann Well you had to have thought it was based more on mechanized units due to a lot of interactions being mechanical stuff, plus it’s called Shen’s Last Gift, Shen being the guy who works on mechanized shit in the original ( EW ) timeline. Also how were you not ready for this mission even with four soldiers, you have time before this mission shows.
Funny how Julian would have gotten what he wanted from the start if he could just control his temper.
I'm a bit confused as to why he didn't, say, use some of those bots to build radio transmitters of his own to extend the range in which his droids to travel outside the tower, or develop better weapons or why he didn't recycle the junkier bots to make thicker armor plating on the ones in better condition. I suppose it's possible that he simply had limiters programmed into him to prevent that.

He shows some emotions like anger, so he can possibly have fear or something near to it

Julian is a sadist so by not removing his personality she had essentially showed him that he wasn’t the higher life form he believed himself to be. His anger was fear of imprisonment, it was realization of his mortality that frightened him
if you compare his life with King's life you think he very lucky one.

Anyways thanks for the cutscenes man, at least i get to see what the deal about this is.
First time for me reacting to this DLC.
How is it?
@ryanp7546 pretty long single mission with more goodies for Xcom to utilize.
@@feralprocessor9853 it's 10 US dollars for the DLC if your planning to buy it.
Anybody notice how the sniper has a shotgun?
Yes.
kkk yeah but plasma tech makes pretty much all weapons a pratical sniper rifles
I like how we can actually see the enemy's health in this video.
Julian's sectopod seems even more durable than normal.
i feel sorry for julian because while he is a very corrupted AI, we just broke him even further by dissecting his mind and ripping out bits we didn't like, if someone did that to my brain i would rather just die than continue living..
he's in the body like he asked for, fair is fair
But his memory is already fractured and broken after sectopoid exploded
What Lilly has done to Julian, that was cruel.
Julian tried to kill her squadmates with MECs, gas her to death, then squash her in a sectopod. This is fairly lenient all things considered.
That bioshock reference...
Would you kindly???
When I first saw Julians Sectopod I was like well FUCK!
Fun fact:you can let Julian in the Spark by naming the Spark ‘Julian’
That's a cool detail.
Right off the bat, one of Shen's toyrobot seems to be on a never seen before frits.
Julian is an underrated character
he was actually planned to be the leader of a fourth faction in war of the chosen. but they had to cut it and they reused him for this dlc
You'd think Julian would have just tried asking
Well, the XCOM will get acknowledged that he helped Advent with Raymond's tech, so he didn't have much of choice...
That's a well prepared squad.
I think the gas is a slight nod to portal just maybe
david valdez ah, the deadly nuerotoxin.
That UK soldier soldier sounds exactly like Shulk.
"Super killing robot, Julian!"
wish julian had one last "no" before he was overridden
I think xcom 3 should have some more action cutscenes and story. It feels like a grind because the game is really replayable but feels boring with the story and minimal cutscenes. Maybe have more branching story arcs like an RPG and have the commander be a permanent playable character that cannot be killed but can be wounded/unconscious and easily extracted if the mission fails.
Would have been awesome to have a cutscene showing spark cutting down lots of robots that Julian sends at us and then sacrifice himself to save the rest. He gets picked up damaged and then repaired by Lily to serve us later.
karankenZ
your missing the point if XCOM, it's a tactical strategy game first.
any cutscenes and story lines we get is frankly a nice bonus.
I'd hate if the game depended heavily in the story to be playable, that makes the game a little less playable.
just play fire emblem, youll get your fix.
@@charterhold1469"tactical strategy" add that with RNG fuckery in it and you can barely call it a strategy. That's XCOM baby!
Are the weapons you used part of this DLC? The dual axes and what looks to be a torque bow from Gears of War?
Just realized the torque bow looking weapon is actually a plasma bolt caster
thats funny i named my bolt caster that. also called my spark silverback in honor of gears 3 mechs
Aren't those weapons alien hunters
i feal bad for julan...they could have atleast given him a chance ya know?
he has a dialogue when you customise a spark bot voice, hillarious
Shen says something like
"Er.. commander Julian hasn't.. actually been destroyed as of yet.. he uploaded himself to the Avenger but I've isolated him in a seperate drive. You know, he could be a good SPARK AI, with all the higher reasoning portions cut out"
Which leads to picking him as a custom voice where he goes "WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME, HOW COULD YO- Awaiting command."
TheKnightOfSmite well at least he became loyal now XD
If he showed a better temper they might just accept him as a friend, but you know the story writer needed an opponent so...
Maybe they would've if he didn't try to kill them from the start. He really had no reason to
i like how you did not use any blue screens or emp grenades on this mission.
Mision for tier 1- 2 max, imagine have blue screens for this xd
those are some crazy armors man but dope looking too😂
jeez i feel sorry for juliean, captured, tortured then left to rot for years, no wonder he went batshit crazy.
yes, but he got the body he asked for anyways, and there is plenty of time for catching up, and progressions in terms of repairs and adjustments if you know what i mean
i've hear "deploying the Tycobarry gun" or i miss hearing that
I modded the bojangles out of my SPARK units...
I now have a slider to increase/decrease size: SPARK is now 9 feet tall
Modded in the MEC Mortar launchers: SPARK can now lob those annoying cluster mortarts.
Modded in new voices:
...
SPARK is now CABAL from C&C:Tiberian Sun.
They tremble at my coming.
why does that soldier have sideboob
Uniform standards have dropped in the grimdark future of XCOM 2.
cloth is expensive you know :D
Plus you gotta keep that 'rebel' image up.
mods probably
@@Banchoking I'd rather be defeated by the aliens than live to see such future.
then sudenly qai takes over the ship by the way qai is from suprem commander
ookay...this facility was built by advent...so the prototype wasn't built there....why advent moved the whole stuff here(with the pre recorded message and stuff....they got an effing psi alien cyphering technology on their hands)...OR if it was built by julian and the advent together following the instruction of the original design then.... why do they included the pre recorded message?
Nagytika well, simply because the prototype was not from the facility, but moved there by Julian to try and upload himself into it. However he realised far too late that there was that failsafe only Lily could disable.
Is it just me or does the way the robots movements seem like the mec units
I think they were based off of mecs, but were made no longer to have human pilots in them.
It seems to be mech trooper animations from enemy within but imported to xcom 2
Is that Alan Tudyk? He's great with these kind of voices.
Also, "floor is turrets"
Its WALL-E!!! Just in battle mode
Id say its closer to Johnny-5/Number-5
When Portal 2 meets X-Com.
You mean Portal? It's like that in Portal 1 too.
@@ryanp7546I think they said Portal 2 since that’s the one where the facility is all rusty and decayed like the old facility in this game.
@@carlosalmonacid8958 Oh wait, I finally remember now. In portal 2, there's a hidden old area of the facility just below the main one where half of Portal 2 and the entirely of Portal 1 took place. It's also rusty and decayed.
You think I will give you a like?... Because I love to give you a like and suscribe to you awesome channel... Wait wtf
27:24 Aw, darn it! I need to watch Tombstone again! XD
do you have a walkthrough of this and the other XCOM 2?
how did your guy with the shotgun get a pistol?
13:17 Derelict mec: Ouch
one of the characters after this mission was called scrapper
why do they keep editing it so that the enemy never seems to get off a shot?
lol julian 😁😁😁😁
How do I access this mission, I have all the dlc and not once did I get a chance to do this mission.
Is it because I’m playing the chosen story mode?
And whats with that sectopod 0.5? ...doesnt dealt too much damage....(maube because the player should do this mission during early game)
Someone robbed the elder's central bank.
So he.. could have walked out in the Sectopod at any time?
Yeah but he wanted the Spark for himself.
26:56 lol
Man why can't we use sectopod? Spark is cool and all but prefure a giant robot with a ton of laser cannons
Julian, sadistic murderer without any profit to X-com --> saved and only difference he made in comparison to the original software is that he feels pleasure in killing.
Viper king - rare male species, prisoner, who just escape lab (which make cruel experiment on him and even made autopsy on him), who can turn entire viper race fight against Advent ----> get killed with all his wife, daughter and even unhatched baby, and after they stripped off the scales ta make clothes, like the Nazis in Buchenwald, and put his scull on his head, like the African tribes. and the scales and heads of his daughters were hung up in the headquarters like psychopaths. And not yet hatched babies or sold on black marker or killed or even being eaten. Are we really playing for the good guys?
yo man where's Dead Space?
tomorrow
You looks like you got everything already lol, wtf like this mission came up when I 2 hours into the game.
Eyes look exactly like Mark 5
Lol the Squad outfits reminds me of Destiny's wacky outfits.
Julian is hilarious
That ending
The last part was hilarious
is that a moded armor ?
We found GLaDOS
We found her brother lol. This is the second time I found eerily similar stuff that I never known it will be referanced.
Julian: Allow me to introduce you to one of ADVENT's more effective designs. I had hoped to avoid this contingency but you have left me no choice. If I cannot have the SPARK no one shall. Raymond Shen's legacy will end here today.
I did beat this mission with the Laser Weapon & Jedi right before the Plasma Weapon but I did beat Shen's Last Gift again but this time in War of the Chosen with the Reaper & Templar & I love the Sniper using a Shotgun (Storm Gun) instead of Sniper Rifle (Plasma Lance) & EVA made a WALL-E becomes a fighting robot that can use BIT as a grenade or fires any heavy weapons like Blaster Launcher perhaps? 😉
If he not kill me. I kinda like Julian.........
funny thing is, when you choose a voice for the SPARK, you have a Julian option, Shen took the AI and reprogrammed it to serve XCOM :D
Still no better than GLaDOS.
I agree. I think they referenced GLaDOS in it too with the deadly gas segment.
I don't know why, but I'm able to build SPARKS without going through this mission.
If you have WOTC there's an option to integrate both DLCs so that it's more streamlined.
he got what he wanted
so why is he mad
Do more espoide of brith by sleep bro
I made the mistake of doing this mission before I got better armor and weapons. DONT DO THIS
This game makes me dislike what games have become. Superheroes everywhere.
hi bro
That mission sucked i had no idea what i was getting in to and i just started the game with bare minimum soldiers trying to fight Julian it did not end well and took me like 25 turns because the only person that could do shit was Shen
Drake Neumann Well you had to have thought it was based more on mechanized units due to a lot of interactions being mechanical stuff, plus it’s called Shen’s Last Gift, Shen being the guy who works on mechanized shit in the original ( EW ) timeline.
Also how were you not ready for this mission even with four soldiers, you have time before this mission shows.
1 hit kills is boring
