My headcanon is that after you beat Phase 3 and by the time Coronation starts, Crimson-1 himself is injured. Possibly by fragments of your missiles and his plane. He sounds incredibly pained and tired. He even breaks down and just starts to scream at you. “No… No not yet” is probably right after he’s injured, as he knows he’s dying and is holding on for as long as he can so he can have another shot at killing you.
Bravo to the VA for crimson, who was literally a random guy who met the devs in a discord call (yes really)
huh I think your right, he is injured 8:58
I heard he's also a TTS voice actor
@@naighto2502 He's not I checked the credits
@@naighto2502 That would be Kaiser, his va voices Kharstodes in TTS
The first time I beat Crimson, that's what I actually thought happened. After all those missiles and gunfire had hit that plane, I thought it would've been inevitable that he would have been injured, and probably fatally
Man's projecting so hard Monarch might as well be a movie screen
He can look at a wall an present a whole power point presentation
At least you fight for your friends, Crimson is just crazy.

This fight is more dramatic the worse you are at the game. Hearing Crimson 1 say "almost got him," when you're at 98% hull integrity is pretty funny, though.
And pretty sad as well
However it's extremely frightening if you're at 2%. Especially on mercenary and with modifiers.
@@mill2712the last time I fought him, I was playing hard mode for the first time and I was one missile away from death and so was he, my asshole was clenched so hard dodging those FUCKING RAILGUN BUBBLES you could put peanut butter up there and turn it into diamonds
@mill2712 oh lord, double spawn with lethal attachments is bullet hell
@@mill2712my experience is that easy mode and normal might as well not exist, hard mode was easy, mercenary mode is hard
Crimson 1's delusions and projections are obvious, but I think a lot of people misunderstand the reason. He betrayed his country, his home, because he believed that individuals did not have the power to make real change in the world, and that only rigorous institutions of power could hope to maintain peace and protect civilization. You defeating not only him, but his country, so thoroughly, does not merely prove him the inferior pilot, it proves that his entire worldview was wrong. That individuals can change the world, that he defected to a tyrannical enemy for no good reason. That he could be sitting where Monarch is now, if he had been less of a coward before. And so he defected once more, and put his life on the line to destroy you, because he could not accept continuing to live knowing that he had destroyed and killed so many over a faulty belief. If he could not prove himself right, he'd rather be dead.
See, that's an interesting dissection and analysis, and really gives me pause for thought as to Crimson's motivations. I had just assumed he lost his damn mind and wanted to ape Pixy. But this... He basically became Pixy, with perhaps a more understandable motivation... I am deeply uncomfortable with this.
Monarch is a direct threat to his very being. He attacks Crimson's nation, his squadron, his very ideals and worldview. Monarch and Crimson are complete opposites
Two years after the game’s release and this is probably the best interpretation of Crimson 1 I’ve seen. Hope this becomes canon somehow.
Perhaps the next PW could be a prequel showing C1 and his rise. The Oceania Merc Cabal could be the villains, and would, for each Merc “King”, show the dangers of excess of individuality. The Federation could, in contrast to PW, be liberators, freeing the oppressed in Oceania from selfish tyrants. Hell, maybe we could give Frost more character development in having C1 affect her views so much that she makes her choice to betray the Cabal. Either way, we get C1 backstory showing this take, and however heroic the game’s events are, it’s made bittersweet because we know how quickly it goes to hell in the future.
@@e.v4892 I agree, and we can see why Crimson would be so eager and loyal to do anything for the Federation as he saw fit.
I have been thinking this exact same thing for a long time but I've never been able to explain it as well as you just did
I just love how Crimson is seen as the Undisputed King of Gaslighting
It's funny really, since Monarch's emblem is of a Butterfly, his callsign a reference to the Monarch Butterfly. From a distance it looks like a crown, and his callsign being Monarch, it's understandable some would confuse his entire thing for being a King. His domination of the skies cements him as the King of the Skies, but really, it's most likely it's something he never wanted. I remember Galaxy asking the Hitman team why they were still flying, despite having made their fortunes many times over. Nothing is outright said, but with how the butterfly is seen as a free and beautiful creature, Monarch probably wanted just that.
To be free.
And now he's a King. Some men are born great, some make themselves great, and others have greatness thrust upon them.
I always thought his emblem to be a plane with a crown drawn over it.
Did you know? There are three kinds of Kings
It never ceases to amaze me how some arcadey plane games can create such thoughtful discourse
idk but i think both are Butterflies but different perspectives (?)
I did not see the butterfly until you pointed it out and now I love that interpretation.
During Kings: "Ah, I'm going to beat you and save everything, like Ace Combat taught me!!!"
After Coronation: "... Oh shit".
I still love the ending to this game. In Ace Combat 5, they cheered the name of your squadron as you returned home victorious. In Ace Combat 6, there was a passionate speech about coming through the darkness and seeing the light again. In Ace Combat 7, there was jovial talk and good vibes from everyone.
Then you get to Project Wingman. After achieving victory and shooting down your rival, there is... nothing. No chorus of cheers, no wingman to congratulate you, even your co-pilot is unconscious from the intense flying. All that is left is ash and ghosts. It's just you... left with your thoughts.
You won... but was the cost worth it?
[It's even more bleak if, at the end of the level, you fly under the clouds and look at the devastation. Above the clouds, you can look towards the sun rising and feel a little bit of peace... but below the clouds? The bursts of lightning, the impact craters, buildings toppled over, and the entire area is on fire. Is this truly a victory?]

Now that I think about it, the thunder and storm Crimson 1 warns about probably isn't death. Rather, it's turmoil. When Crimson 1's life got uprooted and he joined the Federation, he betrayed his countrymen due to his beliefs that only a powerful organisation could maintain peace and protect people, as mentioned by another comment. His life was thrown upside down, and he made a series of wrong decisions that lead him to where he is now. His tragic warning isn't to remember him when his time is up; it's to remember him when Monarch faces what he had to, someday. Crimson knows that a mercenary like Monarch will have to make uncomfortable choices someday. And that when the storm hits, he shouldn't take the path Crimson did. For all of Crimson's ego, grandeur and skill... he was still a person at the end of the day. We don't know how much he's lost -- or perhaps more likely, sacrificed -- just to ensure those close to him are OK. Maybe he was misled, or maybe he took the wrong path on purpose. Either way, in that final moment, he reclaims some of his sanity, enough to warn Monarch to not do what he's done.
The way he says "This is for the good of the world" is really unhinged.
14/10 voice acting.
Considering its a random guy they met in a discord call ... Its fucking 100/10 voice acting
Man the fact that you hear an echo of Megalith at the start of Kings makes you think "Oh fuck yeah here we go finale time" but by the time Coronation is playing and you can hear a dying Crimson scream his death throes we're hit with reminder that millions of people are dead and we're about to be all alone and that none of this was worth it. A really great contrast to how Ace Combat 4 ended and how this time the echo of Megalith is basically there as just that, an echo. A calling to heroism to save the world. There is no heroism this time though and no world was saved. Shits fucked.
I think that's why I liked how Project Wingman ended, the end battle was so well put together and how sad it was showed war always has consequences, a lot of times dire.
@@secret_president Same. On top of that I like how it ends so abruptly and ambiguously with room for a sequel. Even if they don't make one though, this is a 'good' ending to a sad finale.
No heroism yet, anyway.
That's true, King's Intro does sounds like a distorted version of Megalith/Agnus Dei's own intro
The entire Pacific: fucked to the core after the PW storyline
Europe on the other hand...

All the sudden; focus x100. Crimson 1. Must . Die.
Imagine being a survivor of Presidia and looking up to the see the sky dividing it self
At that point any survivor would probably see that fight and think they were watching a duel between deities.

I think he says not about remember him but about his anger and ego that makes him totally insane
Some kind of "Don't be like me"
it wasnt a plea. It was a warning, because one day when someone better than monarch comes to take him down, he should remember how it was like when he was in the other seat
Blaze?! The faq are you doing in project wingman!?
U know after killing mihaly I thought that this shit was glorious but after kings when crimson died I feel like a monster I don’t feel as heroic anymore but instead I feel as if I myself have let my self fester into the new crimson 1
"I will bury you so completely...the Earth will turn over a thousand times before your body is dug up."
I love that line so much, it has bite to it, Crimson 1's VA put some pure conviction into his performance, that's for damn sure.
What's even better is the fact that they found him cause he was in their discord channel vc
@@AnsweringAnimal Wait, Crimson's VA?
@@RushZ3r Yes
If it wasn't for the fact crimson is in the wrong and projecting so hard, a lot of his lines int he final fight would just as easily work for a spitful vengeful protagonist. Someone who never wanted this but who has been so utterly forced by life and the actions of the villain to just do what has to be done, and he's going to take a bit of glee in beating the villain flat into the floor till there is either no villain or no floor.
@@KenshiImmortalWolf I think that's how Crimson 1 sees himself, he's persuaded to be a hero, and Monarch is his antagonist. That's why he thinks that all of his actions are legitimate, even if he knows that they are horrible (he seems to feel some sort of remorse after nuking Cascadia, his homeland).
In Ace Combat, power is a force to create legends, to save those who need saving and find the tomorrow where a brighter future lies, people fight to become heroes and arrive home with honor....
In Project Wingman power is a force to be abused and the weak are victims of heroes that fight for petty glory and selfish paychecks....
Kings aren't there to protect, they're there to be feared. When the Coronation begins, everyone bows. Either from allegiance or to keep their heads.
In AC, you're a noble wolf....
In PW, you're a rabid dog....
Indeed…Compared to Ace Combat, Project Wingman is the tale of rabid dogs fighting against even worse hounds.
…And it is AWESOME.
When coronation kicks in i always think:
I'm the final boss now
But at what cost?
*Caution*
*Monarch*
@@metalgearexcelsus everything
We’re not trapped in the calamitous sky with him. He is trapped in the calamitous sky with US.
Well, in an update, it does show Monarch's symbol during "Phase 4" of the boss. So, this isn't too far off.
Crimson-1 goes through all 5 stages of grief in this fight.
First denial, him projecting his actions onto Monarch to try and reduce his guilt over working against his home country on behalf of the Pacific Federation. Monarch just doesn’t get it, he’s at fault, Crimson-1 is doing his best to maintain his once confident attitude.
Anger follows as he starts taking more hits, he slows down on trying to justify his actions to himself and goes to his hatred and grief over him forsaking his country.
Right at the second phase he reaches Bargaining, his delusion of fighting Monarch at the cost of his countries Capitol and likely millions of people overwhelming him.
I’d like to imagine Depression is reached when he yells over communications. While it’s mainly from the pain of him getting gravely injured, this and the realization that all of this was for nothing comes crashing down on him and he can only howl in rage and despair.
Acceptance is self-explanatory. His final lines harbor no attempts of psychology defending himself, his voice trembling from a mix of shame and finality. As he detonates his cordium explosive, he is the closet to being at peace as a delusional mass-murderer can be.
When it switches to Coronation my whole mood flips. Originally I hated Crimson 1, probably a bit too strong but I didn't like him at all, but when it comes to the end in Coronation, I just feel sorry for him. No one forced him to destroy his entire country, he did that himself and he refuses to accept that. Even if he won, it changes nothing of what he did.
Crimson 1 is an example of someone with anger, depression, and possibly even jealousy. Because he lost so much due to Monarch and failed multiple times to defeat him, he took it out on everyone else. He spends the whole time during "Kings" trying to make Monarch feel bad, but if you really think about it. It's almost as if he's trying to convince himself Monarch is the bad guy, not him.
The ending fits well with this. He realizes what he did, the war crimes he committed, and all the people killed along with that. He accepts his fate in the end, but still blames Monarch. But, at least in my opinion, feels Monarch did take everything from him and he will forever hate him, but his quest for vengeance costed his home, and his life.
@@secret_president tbh, in the context of a cascadian federation ace, you literally are the devil, you're a merc that has single handedly turned the war into the favor of the rebels and have threatened the unity of the federation. That's like if a U.S pilot is fighting a merc who has managed to turn the tides for the secession of the south and has constantly trump you and you feel responsible for it given that you are the top ace of the country.
this is exactly how i felt. this game's story is amazing, and i loved the darkness compared to everyhting else ive played before
i don't know why but godamn does Crimson-1 dialogue goes hard asf
Monarch. When you hear the thunder...
He says pettiest stuff in the coolest way.
This entire game was like MGS but in the air
welcome to ace combat/project wingman
Crimson 1s voice actor did an amazing job honestly
Yea, crazy that it’s just some guy the devs met on a discord vc
I love how a lot of people assumes its a crown, when it's clearly a Monarch Butterfly.
My headcanon is that it was intended as, and seen as back when monarch was barely known, a monarch butterfly, but the view of what it was changed during the cascadian war where monarch practically became the ruler of the battlefield to the crown
Every time after the first playthrough, I saluted him as he went down. He was a murderous psycho, but at the end of the day, he's human too.
He may have been going psycho, but I've stated many times before, if you look at it in his shoes, everything was taken from him.
Crimson was a hotshot who was the ace of the Federation Peacekeeping Force, then one day some merc pilot just beats the crap out of him and his squad.
When the initial Cordium bombs dropped, he truly believed Monarch and the Independence Force did it. And when he was shot down by Monarch, he lost it. He saw Monarch did this all and wanted revenge.
An insane fool…But also a worthy opponent.
Oh hell no. Hes a fucking waste of a good pilot. He killed millions because of his fragile ego,and then couldnt even win the fight he started

That scene in Halo Reach always hit me. The hopeless scenario. You fight and you fight as much as you can. You show every bit of fight you have left. Is it enough?
The only thing I hate about Coronation in the game is that for some reason they decided to not include the last 5 notes, which are the PERFECT finisher to the entire game
When I was putting this together I wanted to make sure it was in there. It definitely is a small piece that adds a lot of impact.
@@secret_president They should've at least added them for Mercenary. No shade to the devs, but they dropped the five notes that perfectly encapsulate all the feelings you feel in those final moments. It just goes to show how talented Jose is though.
@@secret_president Got an answer from Jose himself. According to him, he and RB (lead dev) did have a conversation of whether those five notes should be played or not. He wanted them in, RB preferred it without. The final consensus was that they decided that since those five notes were the theme for freedom, it should be up to the player to decide whether it was a win or a loss, or whether you truly achieve freedom or you lose it afterwards.
Personally, I think that the melancholic notes perfectly encapsulate the players' feelings of a broken freedom. The war ended and you got your deal, but at what cost?
@@arcturus4762 That's interesting but I can see where they are coming from on this decision.
"THIS!
IS MY HOME!"
vs
"YOU PICKED THE WRONG HOUSE, FOO'!"
Once Coronation plays, I can feel the strain. Crimson isn’t flying as well, your plane seems a bit tired too. Regardless of the victor, it may be the last time either bird flies. The silent ending of this game truly sets the tone. Where Call of Duty is all “hooray good guys won,” Project Wingman shows you what man is truly capable of when enough good men do nothing (Crimson’s superiors). Even though Monarch won, the damage was done before the battle began.
Just imagine, you are one of the last survivors of the presidia bombing. Maybe a civilian, maybe a soldier. But at this point it doesn’t matter. And as you look up from the burning magma below you, there are two planes, dueling in the heavens. Both fighting so hard to stay alive, and to make sure the other falls. They fly up above the clouds, the flashes of rail guns following quickly behind them. And then as they re emerge. One is fatally damaged. After a while, their plane explodes violently. You can feel the shockwave from what must be miles away. And one is left victorious. You notice there is a small marking on the plane. A butterfly. And they fly off. And you are left in the remains of what is left of cascadia
“Monarch…….. When you hear the thunder……….. when the storm comes for you.. remember me.”
I use this quote a lot online
I just use the threat he made
6:40 I love how Crimson is still delusional. He thinks that Monarch staying alive is a threat to the world. My headcannon is that he nuked Presidia to force Monarch to duel him and force other planes out of commision, so he can surely shoot him down. By doing this, by defeating Monarch in a straight duel, he thinks he can avenge his teammates, he can rebuild his ego, and save the federation from the most dangerous threats in existence, Monarch. But by precisely doing this, he turned Monarch against the federation, who might not have been motivated enough to engage federation beyond his contract (I said might be cuz we know nothing about Monarch and his motivations/reasons for being a mercenary and if he does have any previous enmity with Federation)
I don't think it's just your headcannon, he probably nuked Presidia for exactly that reason
@@arcturus4762 it's not headcannon. it's cannon. there literally was an in-game file stating this

I wonder if it’s because he’s mad at Monarch, or if it’s because he briefly came to his senses and realized the evil of what he had done. I think it could be the latter because he goes on to say “go in for that kill you dog” like maybe he’s begging monarch to end his misery or to keep him from hurting anymore people.
@@JackedSunBeareIts also him justifying his hate. Monarch is a mercenary, a paid killer and Crimson 1 ss obsessed with killing over being a soldier

I didn't mean to hurt anybody...
Nobody ever does... ONE!

@@secret_president What Project Warcrimes does to a mf
Honestly one of my favorite Villain speeches, especially that intro as he nukes an entire city just to get your attention. His intentions are clear and, while his motivations are simple, the sheer lengths he's willing to go is disturbing from an analysis standpoint, and this makes him more than a worthy rival to Ace Combat's greats.
The music. I makes it feel like we are the villains, not the hero saving the world, but the one who kills the hero.
I mean, we are a merc for hire, we have no morals. we could have easily been on the federation side squashing a rebellion attempt by a shortsighted nationalistic Cascadian cohort.
"You are solely responsible for this"
"Nuh uh" *BOOM*
By the end of this fight, I was practically BEGGING Crimson to stop...it genuinely hurt to hear him drive himself to such suffering. All that death, and for what? Because we beat him ONCE?? Because we bruised his pride??? It didn't have to be this way...and yet...

This started to play on its own after I left my room, I'm scared
Run
I know I'm probably unique in thinking of my Monarch as something of a thrill junkie and sky duelist. But I always do like to see him in my head stoked that somehow his strongest foe of the war survived to try to kill him one more time. Hearing him rant and rave, but unbothered by the projection and moralizing, as long as it inspires Crimson to fight with everything he has. The brilliance of one last dog fight. Makes the Coronation moment bittersweet, like watching Crimson limping. Injured, not a real fight anymore, but you can't just leave him like this. The adrenaline seeping away to this bitter emptiness as there's nobody left. Nobody here anyway. Finally having to look on the destruction, wondering what's left. And looking to the sky, for one more.
the ''this is MY home'' hits so hard
I like Monarch sign design. It just a Monarch butterfly.
But with that name and seem like crown design many misunderstood him as some sort of royalty. He is just a pilot who really like to fly that thrown into this apocalypse war.
And killing Crimson he established himself as one of the best pilot in the world. Fitting the name Monarch.
Does anyone see angry eyebrows in the reflection?
"I respect my foes. I regard them for what they have earned. They were Iron, they lived by the Iron. They fought with the Iron in their hearts. Just as I have. Just as my brothers once did." ~Unknown Iron Warrior's words that I gladly take to heart, and which apply very nicely to Crimson-1 and Crimson Squad.
They fought hard, they fought for what they believed in. Even to the very end. He might have been delusional, or a war criminal... but hey, so is Monarch. Nobody here can say flying the PW-Mk1 is not the equivalent to a mobile warcrime with wings. And I know damn well everyone who's played this game has flown the damn thing. Even so.. Monarch and Crimson, they both fought to the end for what they both believed in.
Safe flight, Crimson. You'll be remembered.
Until we meet again.

Best part of kings, prove me otherwise
3:31 "You think you can fight this war again in 50 year's time?"
This line is so ironic. The Federation might have been able to reconquer Cascadia after rebuilding its forces, but by dropping the nuke, Crimson 1 has guaranteed that they'll be too busy with foreign invasions and internal strife to focus on retaking Cascadia anytime soon. So yeah, they'll probably be able to fight off the Federation again in 50 years, and Crimson 1 is the reason they'll have the foreign support to do so.
Not to mention the Federation itself got a huge chunk of land sinking into the sea as well, from the explosion of the ring of fire, by the Conquest mode map.
I deliberately played the second half of the game using only the Tomcat just to get more Prez. It's my headcanon that while dueling Crimson 1, Monarch is not only worrying about keeping his own ass alive longer than Crimson 1, but also deliberately holding back from the most brutal of maneuvers to limit the physiological damage done on Prez (considering she's already dealing with what must be a fuckton of psychological trauma from seeing not one but two cities get nuked).
She passes out from the maneuvers
TGC fans: Sky's story is perfect! So beautiful!
Project Wingman (Sector D2):
Well... what is TGC?

Lmao, ThatGameCompany
I kind of want to know the story behind this comment...
I understand Crimson 1's delusions.
He stands as the anathema to Individualisms, he firmly believes in the bigger picture, Cascadia is a keystone to Federation might, if it falls out of the Federations grasp the Federation will be weakened, other countries will be emboldened and without a firm hand to guide and control them more wars will be spawned.
In Crimson 1's world, all must stand together or ultimately they'll just fall apart.
Crimson 1 was the champion of that order, the order of the world itself, Monarch was practically the complete opposite.
Monarch embodies Individualism he's a single man capable of turning the tide, a man that can spit in the face of Crimson 1's beliefs and not only survive, but thrive, he's proof that the Federation is not necessary for a country to exist.
Monarch is a man who stands for nothing, he's a Mercenary that fights for money not a cause and yet people rally behind him, he's a symbol of greed and corruption.
But for Crimson 1, Monarch also embodies Chaos, if Monarch wins the war for Cascadia he dooms the world to more and more war.
Crimson 1 is a man driven by these beliefs, but he's also a man driven by ego, he's a man that was put on a pedestal by the order he believed in, was told he was the best, that he was the keystone for everything he believed in.
Then his own country turned on the order, turned on him, and his hand was forced to take the life of his own people, the first real crack in his ego, then Monarch came, and again and again helped to fracture the façade Crimson 1 lived in.
Eventually Monarch took everything from him, Cascadia rallied behind Monarch, a landless mercenary, against Crimson 1 the man who was supposed to be a champion of peace, the king of the skies, Cascadia's pride.
Monarch killed his squadron, men and women he truly valued and who he went out of his way to preserve at even the slightest hint of danger, his only friends.
For Crimson 1, Monarch shattered his world, stole his country, murdered his friends, humiliated him and stole his title, and left him with nothing, all for money.
All Crimson 1 had left was spite, he chose to sacrifice everything he had left, both himself and his home on the altar of his own world order purely out of spite.
I think in the end he knew all of these things, I think those final words are not a man that wants to remembered as a king, but as man that wants to be remembered as a warning sign.
The storm he speaks of is the challenge monarch brought, the one that broke him, I think he's warning Monarch how easy it is to be broken when you have the whole world on your shoulders.
I think he was right in a way, Cascadia winning means a lot more war is on the horizon and Monarch as the new keystone, the new king of the skies, will be challenged a lot more in the coming years if he wants to remain in the skies.
In the end though, Crimson 1 condemned millions to die that could've lived, he didn't stop the wars, he just increased the death toll and probably damaged his own world order more than Monarch ever did.
Now we need AWACS galaxy explaining CBT to him
Hi everyone,
I know one of the biggest criticisms I've received for this video is missing a very important line "That's the deal you made, right?"
At the time I was practically doing this in a way that was much more difficult than before. But getting the audio was not originally easy so knowing I missed a line haunts me to this day.
I have since been able to get the clip of that line however I'm not entirely sure I can add it to the existing video. If I can't then I may need to look into reuploading the entire video. I'm just also working on Consequence of Power and Peacemaker II in the spare time I do get so it's all a process.
I appreciate everyone pointing this out and know I have been reading the comments on this. They don't go unnoticed. :)
I wish you luck in editing it in, but either way this is a great video. You're doing good work out here.
Either way this is still a great vid
This is still my favourite version of this music to listen to. The rage of Crimson 1 makes me smile.
You can tell how broken Crimson 1 was, he probably had a terrible childhood. He actually believes he is fighting for the right ideas, but in reality he was someone so abandoned and alone for the majority of his life that his depression and desperation backfired onto the world around him. He mentally went volatile in the end without even acknowledging it. Like Sulejmani from the AC series, they were both broken soldiers trying to pick up the pieces at the best of their ability no matter the consequences.

Thank you everyone for the positive comments and over 10k views. You are all awesome!
Poor Prez in the back seat, couldn’t keep up :c
Little mistake you made, you forgot the line "That's the deal you made, right?". It literally comes after "Here we are, fighting for Cascadia's soul"
Pulling the voice lines I came across multiple obstacles. In the last video I did, I was having trouble getting Prez's lines (though I've since found a resolve). But what's even more interesting is the last few times I've played he hasn't said that so A. I'm just beating him too quickly or B. I'm encountering a bug. Unfortunately I don't know the true answer.
@@secret_president "understandable, have a great day"
Probably one of the most important lines

The OST is so perfect at guiding the emotion of this encounter. The tonal shift for the final act of the duel with Coronation seals it. It lets you fill the quiet with your own thought and emotion, it gives you space to invest in the experience, and it gives it all the more weight as you fight to put this rabid dog down

Wow! We've reached 100,000 views! This is amazing. I really appreciate the listens and support. It's been great! Again thank you everyone :)
I just realised both Monarch 's and Crimson's emblems look like butterflies.
because they are the names of actual butterflies

...Yeesh, that scream. It just sounds...furious. Desperate. Some people say that it could be Crimson 1 realising he’s fought for nothing, that all his actions up till now have meant nothing, and I can see that. It could also be, since people have said the last phase is basically him fighting through the pain to take Monarch with him, that he’s screaming to keep himself from just blacking out in the seat. I think it could be a bit of both, along with him just being pissed that Monarch just won’t *die* no matter what Crimson 1 does. It’s vicious, filled with rage in the face of the fact the man he’s so desperately being trying to kill just keeps surviving no matter what he does...and then, after his final words, it’s silent. There’s no grand victory fanfare, no squadmates congratulating Monarch, it’s just a haunting, empty feeling, as if all you did was put down a rabid dog.
Ah shit...
My PTSD on Orange is triggered...
RIP my Retna.
The O R A N G E
Just what I needed
I always hear CAUTION in my dreams
“And my squadron. Do you think they deserved it?” Okay that hurt me. Listen dude. They died because of YOUR obsession.
Don't know if it's a bug for the Xbox release but Kings doesn't seem to play when the mission starts. It's just missile alerts, the sound of thunder and Crimson 1's dialogue. Coronation plays just fine afterwards, but not Kings.
I'm saddened that I can't listen to this amazing song.
Kings is Missile Alert. The actual Missile Alert is the soundtrack.
Yeah, it's a bug. I got the same issue.
In an odd way the lack of music makes it so much more real and personal. It hits different for sure, but I'm still hoping for a fix.
You can now, the game's been updated.
@@unsightedraptor8201 do you happen to know what else had been patched?
I started falling asleep to this and 7:14 scared the absolute shit outta me
This is absolutely the funniest comment I've seen here yet.
@@secret_president I was blissfully nodding away to sleep, instead of counting sheep I was counting bandits to splash, when suddenly, music stops, and a loud noise rings out. My body temporarily achieves flight, fitting the song I was listening to, as I violently jolt to deal with whatever possible threat has made such a unkind noise, just to realize, it was part of the video.
It happened again
I do not learn
Again.
I truly refuse to learn
A battle and ending I will never forget. Probably my favourite out of any game I’ve ever played.
It’s interesting that in terms of gameplay it’s actually not even a difficult fight. Poetic.
When coronation starts playing I just think of some sad words to say to Crimson
Eg: “You know even though the sky is tainted it will still be blue long after our passing”
Hi everyone! Once again I am glad everyone enjoyed the fun project I did of putting Crimson's dialog with the music! By huge demand I have received requests to do it for other missions. One is coming very soon! Presidia! To make sure it ties with this Kings one. Check here for the Premiere! ruclips.net/video/Ncm1Bby154w/видео.html&ab_channel=Secret_President
This fight brought so many different emotions...
For me it brought love and hate
"when you hear the thunder, when the storm comes for you..." bro you literally caused third largest storm in the world and you are falling into it
Don't mind me, im just going to put this here: 8:37
I have no idea what your up to but I'm ok with this.
@@secret_president close ur eyes and listen lol
@@Arengeesus 2 months later and now I get it. *Sigh*
Why are you posting a timestamp of crimson 1 being more frustrated than a Russian CSGO player?
Holy cow! Over 50k views! I guess this is pretty popular. I'm glad I can bring joy to everyone.
The top question I keep getting is: "When will we get Showdown with lyrics/dialog?"
It's a slow process for me, I just recently moved and am starting a new job here soon. So I'm working on it over time. I'm hoping April but I don't want to make that guarantee. It didn't help some of my desktop parts I shipped came damaged and we all know how certain expensive PC parts are. So doing this on my laptop instead which has decent specs.
Again thanks for 50k views. I don't do this for money, fame or glory but as a fan service to a fantastic game and composer. I look forward to Project Wingman's future AND the upcoming DAWN Audio play.
Look at me. Look at me. I am the final boss now.
Remembering crimson is like Tom trying to kill jerry after all the destruction jerry just comeback
This gives me chills\
Only need the missile alert and will be a full ASMR (?)
The only reason I chose not to was because I was concerned it would get annoying and cover over Crimson's voice. But I totally get it. Maybe one day I'll make a missile alert edition.
Heck, using the Cordium bomb explosion was actually a real challenge, if you listen to it on anything that is not good speakers it sounds like garbage.
@@secret_president understandable. Still great video. It was just a suggestion. Ik It can get annoying xD
Old cod lobbies be like:
This is tame compared to old school Modern Warfare lobbies.
Not enough racial slurs
“Am I really gonna cause untold destruction and potentially kill a lot of people just to prove a point and get back at Monarch? Of course I am!”
