The greatest story you've never heard...

Gears of War is a franchise that I love from the games, the books, and the comics. On the surface you expect what you see, big...everything really. Heroes, villains, weapons, monsters, vehicles, but most importantly you get a big story and universe. It's more than just intense action, but a thrilling story filled with complexity and incredible themes. An immense amount of connecting storylines, actions and reactions, and an enjoyable experience through and through. In this video I try (my best) to explain the following themes: 1. The Brotherhood of Soldiers 2. The Self-Destruction of Humanity 3. The Severity of Purpose As my first video essay, I hope you go a little easy on me but I wouldn't mind some constructive criticisms in the comments! That is if you see this...does anyone read descriptions anymore besides me? Who knows... ------------------------------------------ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 More Than Just Looks! 0:37 THE BROTHERHOOD OF SOLDIERS 1:23 Baird and Cole 3:09 Sofia and Paduk 5:20 Marcus and Dom 7:18 THE SELF-DESTRUCTION OF HUMANITY 8:07 Imulsion 9:17 Locust Origins 11:42 Hammer of Dawn Strikes 13:19 THE SEVERITY OF PURPOSE 13:38 Dominic Santiago's Purpose 18:58 I Love This Franchise! 19:55 Outro :D #gearsofwar #gears5 #gears #eday #gow #shorts #viral #gaming
