I'm Gabreil Angelous of the blood ravens . I can do everythin for the glory of the emperor , destroy world , free demon and turn my plasma pistol to a bolter , if you have a problem we can talk and them i let you burn!
The music paints this as the final act of a tragedy. A tragedy between two brothers, ending in only death. It perfectly gives off the intended vibe, and I render this cutscene worthy of cataloging in the Librarium.
That was harder for Gabriel than he let on. It was his best friend and he knows that psykers live under enormous pressure. But it was his duty and he couldn’t show any leniency because the warp is treacherous and was whispering into the minds of every one of his space marines.
@@masongalioth4110 Dawn of War 2 Chaos Rising. If Aramus (Real name of hair gel) led his strike force to kill several Loyalist Blood Ravens, he will be publicly executed.
And thus, Gabriel Angelos became the last man alive from Cyrene, the last man to know it's beauty, it's power, it's strength, its secrets.... terrible secrets.... and should the day come that he die, so to will this knowledge. After all, he does as any Blood Raven would by the very motto of their chapter: "Knowledge is power, guard it well."
Even his death in DOW2 did not stop him. As he returned as Chapter Master in DOW3.. Btw: where is Diomedes and Boraele when you need their "inhuman" speech
Gabriel executed exterminatus upon the entire Cyrene's population just for a democratic protest against the emperor & this movement includes his very own father who served as a SM
Fun fact: the Bolt Pistol used to end Isador's life was dubbed the "Left Hand of Gabriel", and it can be acquired as a reward in Dawn of War 2. Its description and name references this particular scene.
But... The Bolt Pistol's in his right hand, so shouldn't it be-... You know what, never mind... I'd be executed as a heretic for questioning the nomenclature of a Space Marine's weapon...
Beware Gabriel Angelos and his Daemon Commissar Bolt pistol, gifted by the Inquisition it juts looks like a plasma pistol, but when it warps into its ethereal bolt pistol form you know some traitors gonna get wrecked!
I guess maybe people need the ongoing help to relate to these 8bit pixels hehe. Technology is amazing. Advances so quickly; I can hardly catch up with it.. Devil's in the details. There's so much information hidden to really convey into a more complex form I think, perhaps you could consult the original creator to stay in line.
Isador: EVEN THE GODS KNOW MY NAME! Khaine: He's with one of you? Gork: He's not with me or Mork, damn humies... what 'bout you Tzeentch? Tzeentch: He's not with me, is he with you false emperor? Emperor: That traitor? Of course not. Possibly another joke by Cegorach... Cegorach: No, this time i'm completely innocent. But what about you guys? Khorne, Slaanesh, Nurgle, Isha: No!
I always thought it was very interesting that they actually had a character model of Isador with defaced chapter livery. Considering Relic's fondness for re-using assets, the fact that it wasn't repeatedly re-used is surprising.
i nearly cried watching this because it was a more emotional cinematic than in any other DOW game or Space marine itself. i wish more emotion was put into these cinematics
Probably my favorite cut scene from a game. It sent chills down my spine the first time. I can only imagine how much better it would be with a proper cinematic to go with it. Just shows the importance of hiring a decent voice actor.
Katalmach it's the coupling. They can be resolved on their own and they are still beautiful. It's just by good judgement they are paired in a complimentary way. You are appreciating really the judgement of somebody in addition to the pieces as they stand individually. Ultimately you can just keep distilling the parts and find all you're getting a boner on is Gabrielangelos' hot voice acting :P That's a really crisp and sexy voice I feel. It's kind of like Phantom of the Opera. It's uh the sexy you see that the phantoms voice you hear. Hehe. Or something. What were you talking about again lol
So much emotional content here, it really is amazing. This makes me want to read the Horus Heresy novels now since I've seen so much talk about it being so awesome.
It is awesome. Start with Horus Rising, and the trilogy that follows, Fulgrim, The First Heretic, Betrayer, and any others that seem interesting to you, they really are amazing novels.
Argel Tal Well, I've actually already read Legion, but I must I was very disappointed with it. Not because of the writing or story, but because of the climax being done quite bad. Thanks, I'll take your recommendation, and read Horus Rising. I'd like to get to know more about the Horus Heresy rather than relying on just Lexicanum or the 40k wiki.
Ya I didn't really enjoy Legion, the only saving grace of it was the ending but it didn't make up for boring novel that it was (and confusing) If you ever are interested in novels post heresy i would recommend the Night Lord novels by Aaron Dembski Bowden among the others. Im just guessing you like Chaos from your pic xD
Argel Tal The meeting with the Cabal and the vision for the Primarchs was very disappointing. I was hope that the novel would go into detail with the meeting unlike Lexicanum, but it didn't at all. I plan on getting the Night Lords works at some point. Those are stories that I constantly saw praise for. Yes, Chaos consume all! Although, I am quite interested in the Deathwatch novels.
This game introduced me to 40K. I was 18 when i first played it (almost 28 now). I've never been into RTS Campaigns, but by The Emperor the voice acting and the envirorments, combined to how different it feels to have factions mixed between fantasy and sci-fi simply made me fall in love with the IP. Till this day, 40K is and will always be my favourite sci-fi universe, and DoW 1 my favourite RTS campaign of all time.
The road to damnation is paved with good intentions. Sincerity is no protection from corruption, nor is it any excuse. The most punitive action was also the most merciful. There is no question about what had to be done.
Heh, I remember how my next door neighbor came up with an pirated copy of vanilla DoW (coz back then we were kinda poor) and said "yo kid, play this shit" and I was "o-okay", and it was great. :D
It made the final showdown between those two former friends all the more tragic but it also made Gabriel's regaining his confidence even better as he finally cleared away his internal doubts and stated that he had to do what he did on Cyrene to end the suffering of those he loved and to ensure that Humanity as a whole would live on.
This moment is very remiscient of the "You were my brother Anakin" scene from the prequels. A tale of two brothers pitted against eachother due to one being tempted away from righteousness, and the other painstaking having to put his once-friend down.
"Every position must be held to the last man: there must be no retirement. With our backs to the wall, and believing in the justice of our cause, each one of us must fight on to the end." Attributed to Warmaster Solon.
It is actually rare for Space Marines to stay in contact with their families (Salamanders are notable exceptions), that makes Gabriel more humane and unique than most Marines in my opinion.
You can hear Isador turn into your average Chaos Space Marine Aspiring Champion as he rants at Gabriel. Just another spineless, soulless traitor, to be added to the pile beneath the God-Emperor's feet.
God the subtitles! XD "Room ashwini" "You look great once before job for the windage". "You we sorry cool how does it feel to have slain millions; 203 joe by I" "Trade know what innocent died selection. Hi and it messed up"
I love this scene. It's easily the greatest of all the DoW scenes. Whenever I hear Isador's little speech at the beginning, I'm Rau La Creuset from Gundam Seed (same VA) and the speech he gave during his final battle. A truly great VA.
lmao i had a squad of marines and two dreadnoughts on the top of the pyramid when i finished the mission, it kinda made the whole thing more epic, isador being capped in front of every single member of the 3rd Company
Pretty deep scene when it comes to the old Chaos VS Imperium deal. Both do have their points. Isador's thoughts on the Exterminatus cannot just be hand waved away. But Gabriel's determination almost makes one think that the Imperium might be right after all. But I guess the point of 40k is that no one is truly right or wrong.
It's amazing how much better these cutscenes (good as they are) are with this new music. I really commend the editor with having good taste in the track selection.
I still feel like a brutal inquisition (no pun intended) would have been better than just wasting the surface of an entire planet with bio-bombs/lasers. I mean, in the Spanish Inquisition a LOT of people died, but it was still successful and the people more-or-less recovered. Then again, we are talking about a whole planet here, but the Imperium has a lot of men at its disposal.
+Tom Kiely you're right but i don't know if inquisition would have taken a different choice, knowing how dow2 goes it seems they swap way to resolve problem
Gabriel father was behind this rebellion on Cyrene. Wanted to have psyker live among them, free trade with Xeno, and other...... Gabriel father didn't have any corruption but in theory i believe Gabriel father is being seduce by Ethereal Tau. I mean seriously.... whoever he say want to free trade with Xeno then that could be Tau Empire.... Not even Chaos or Eldar....
The parts of cutscenes that involve weapons being used, tend to assume that the basic weapon is what's still there. Gabriel's wielding a plasma pistol, most likely, because the person playing the game upgraded his weapon during the mission. That carried over into the cutscene, but not in the controlled fighting.
You can get Gabriel's bolt pistol in Dawn of War 2. According to the weapons story he threw it away in disgust after killing Isador. It's also (one of) the best weapons of it's type in DoW2
@Techcom13 The bolt pistol is Gabriel's default ranged weapon, but during the gameplay it can be upgraded to a Plasma Pistol. The animation used to shoot Isador however doesn't take the upgrade into account, and simply uses the Bolt Pistol, causing the little graphical oops of "Gabriel's Magical Morphing Bolt-Plasma Pistol". A bit of an oversight on the animator's part most likely.
I disagree, but I think it's just both of us see the tau in different ways, so fine by me if you think that, I don't. Anyway this is a comment list not a discussion forum, let's just comment the video ok? Congratulations to BigDickCheney the video is great, this cinematic is one of my favorites in al DoW series, and the music you chose only makes it better, great job man
Yes and it shows just how dangerous and evil Chaos and the Dark Gods are, a world where the closest thing to the 'good guys' are the small cluster of planets controled by the Tai empire... and they are a group that pretty much says "You join us, becoming apart the Greater Good, or get out of our way. If you don't we will destroy you". I would very much recommend reading the series as it tell you alot about the universe of Warhammer 40k. Fallen Angels is the book on Lion El Johnson
Isador: "I can feel the universe tremble at my approach, even the GODS know my name!" Angelos: "Wait a sec, this Sindri was manipulating you the whole time, getting you to steal the Malecdictum for him, betrayed you and in the process make you betray the Emperor and lose every shed of honor and humanity - so why are you still fighting for him?" [Awkward pause] Isador: "...Erm, for the evulz?" Angelos:"What?! Why would...Oh f*** it... No One Will Remember you, Traitor, I Will See To That!"
This clip made me feel bad for both Gabriel AND Isador. In Gabriel's case, it's because he was once again forced to kill someone close to him who had been compromised by chaos. In Isador's case, it's because he'd intended to use the Chaos artifact to aid the Imperium but fell to its dark influence.
There's actually a reason for that, believe it or not. Gabriel disgarded his bolt pistol after executing Isador, he believed the weapon to be tainted from the corruption of Chaos. You can aquire the bolt pistol in DoW II. Ironically, you can also aquire Isador's Folly, an armor set, which under the lastest patch, cannot be equiped whilst wearing Gabriel's Bolt Pistol.
