The Terminators are endless, they don't stop...and now there taking prisoners #terminator #terminatorgaming #terminatorresistance DRUNK EWOKS Discord: / discord
I spent half the game under the idea that Humanoid and larger terminator could only be harmed by high caliber,plasma and explosive weaponry. So for me it was a stealth game any time I heard those footsteps
That's why Alien Isolation was such an effective horror game. You had weapons, but against the alien they were almost useless. Only the flamethrower did anything to it, whereas the ballistic weapons didn't even hurt it.
Just think an Alien Isolation like game, with a bit more action to utilize the advanced weaponry but in essence it's you against a relentless stalker who's learning and adapting based on how you play. That would be awesome!
A blink and you’ll miss it moment at 4:05 he says that’s a member of the resistance hinting at the fact that the T1000 AKA Robert Patrick was once a resistance member that was operated on to become a Terminator Advance Prototype.
His appearance, yeah. In the Annihilation Line DLC, one of your party (the guy who drove the doomed technical for Reese in the original film, actually) is used as the body-type model for one of the T-800's appearances (not T-101 or T-102, as we know their appearances already). We see him destroy the prototype or first production model. Looks like this guy wasn't so lucky.
@@WallNutBreaker524 Annihilation Line pulls at the heartstrings. SPOILER: Ferro is the chick Reese was with when they were trying to bomb the HK-Tank -- she got atomized. In AL, you bond with her and come to really like her as a character. Hell, if she'd been in the main game and not fated to die via canon, she would've made a great option other than Baron and Jennifer. They did a really good job in fleshing out a bit character from the original film. The scene with Reese burning in the technical actually directly follows Ferro's death -- the guy driving the technical is your other party member that you (Rivers) gets to know, and he's the one that the T-103 or something was based on (101 being Arnold and 102 being based on Arnold's now-deceased friend, who is seen in the original film in Reese's nightmare/memory infiltrating the Resistance bunker and as the player character in the Infiltrator DLC). His character arc is finding out why Connor saved him from a Skynet camp, and his taking revenge on Skynet by destroying the first or prototype infiltrator based on his likeness. He has trust issues but comes to trust Rivers over time. He dies when the technical flips over, after the player puts in the call to extract Reese from incoming Skynet reinforcements, which is the original film moment -- you, Rivers, pull him out from the technical. You get to know these people, bond with them, engage with them, and settle in as a well-oiled squad... and then in the final mission, all but you and Reese die (and we ultimately know what happens to both Rivers and Reese from Resistance's and Terminator's endings). Doomed Squad.
@@jrr7031 they do have x ray like senses, hunter killer machine hearing, pattern prediction analysis making them appear near psychic, the humans just needed ridiculous plot armor for the story to be possible.
@@Brukner841 ok. I was about to say like.....everything up to the T-800 was a tough fight. After that model though.....yea, we aint winning.(I was basing th xray vision off the terminator "HUD" from the original movie. 'Fuck you asshole' "
Every enemy up until meeting the first T-800 took damage from all my weapons. I remember looking at the T-800 shooting it with the assault rifle and just repeatedly seeing "Weapon Ineffective" notification as it walked towards me and started shooting. I bolted back into the vent, watched it BEND DOWN and start firing into the vent 😂 I was freaking out and geeking at the same time about how lore accurate it was.
THIS is what Terminator 3 was always meant to be. TREMENDOUS GAME!!! To say that the atmosphere is immersive is to disparage it: it is directly SUFFOCATING: you really feel scared when playing this game. You experience the fear of being detected by a T-800, especially when you have an Assault Rifle and a Shotgun, weapons that we know are powerful, but the well-implemented Lore of the game achieves the feeling of total helplessness. And that need that the game creates in the player to have to hide and advance almost touching those patrolling T-800s.... and knowing that you lose in an instant if you can see! Incredible atmosphere and gameplay! And by far, of the entire Terminator Expanded Universe, the only material of all that really lives up to T1 and T2. And even, and this is a purely personal opinion, it manages to round out the Lore of these two films, creating a story that unites it, makes them convergent and always maintaining fidelity and logic to the original story.
@@Markos681even when you get the plasma guns you never feel quite safe or sure when facing actual terminator models. Although stealth + turret hack is OP.
@@MrVlad12340 thats my gameplay loop for most of the game. even after getting the plasma weapons and trying on the easiest difficulty, it's still so difficult to fight them head on even 1v1. The funniest way I tried was going around the t-800 shooting at it while missing me. Not up close though.
I know what this feels like, played this game quite a bit and just waiting there behind a corner in the dark, trying to dodge a T-800 is extremely nerve racking.
I’ve never played this before, but it looks awesome. I’m currently playing some of the resident evil games, and seeing him not pick up items combined with the tense atmosphere, my heart rate was up there. Lol
They could fix this with one simple little trick. Shooting a plasma rifle at grass patches causes them to ignite an stay on fire. And then add some code to the a.i. terminators that shoots the grass sometimes at random. Or when shooting at the player. (Maybe they shoot the grass sometimes because a rat or animal hiding in the bush.
@@hideakiakio6698maybe if you played on easy mode. On the hardest difficulty, which is the only one you should play that game on, the save stations are vital for progress but going for one leaves you vulnerable and you can only guess if it's even a good safe that gives you enough time to find a hiding spot. Even the animation is nerve wracking. Everytime you interact with a save station it creates tension. It's so intense you feel a little unease even when saving in safe areas
When I first played this, my heart started pounding when I saw that first T-800 dragging the dead resistance soldier, and the music kicking in just added to the intensity. I was so scared of what would happen if I was caught, I practically stopped breathing as I tried to focus, and I didn't even want to try and shoot them as I had no idea if any of my weapons could do anything to them.
@@codnoob7470 I'm not rich, I'm very middle class.. if yiu have a job and put $100 away every paycheck you'll inevitably afford a PC or Console of choice, besides, mobile games aren't the same, they're meant to be played whiles taking a shit
It's a damn good thing that this game is still relying on an 80's vision of the future. I mean, a single T-800 with thermal vision or cluster computing all the units into one single hive consciousness could've made everything in this video completely impossible.
The infiltrators are meant to operate independently from Skynet but the regular terminators like the t-800s you see in the hospital should 100% be like a hivemind. I did think it was weird about their awful peripheral vision and perception too cuz Kyle explicitly says HKs use infrared. I guess they had to dumb things down to make the game easier but stuff like that would be perfect for like a true survival horror.
@@michaelrandolph6373 I don't think t800's have a hivemind because they have to be able to infiltrate and look similar to humans and work independently from skynet, they get their updates and orders from skynet.
Because we are too busy keeping humanity from going extinct because a vital resistance member stubbed their toe on a desk left behind by a Skynet infiltrator. Causing a cascade of events that resulted in humans losing the war

They really nailed the dread a Terminator has. It's just like what Kyle said in the first movie, the Terminator is an efficient killing machine. It cannot be bargained nor reasoned nor tricked, it will not stop until it kills you. Basic weapons don't even hurt it, high caliber bullets won't faze it, the endoskeleton can tank an explosive and still move. Your only hope of defense is a plasma rifle. And that's not to mention there are those which can perfectly mimic human movements and blend in. Pretty sure there are T-800 models which look like ordinary people, not Arnold Schwarzenegger. Ordinary average citizen, it could be a child, it could be a crippled person, and you'd never know.
Well, lore-wise there were multiple appearances for the T800 unit. Altough Arnold was the first T - 800 alternation 101, there were others labeled 102 and so on, each of them looked different. Also, if you watch a TV show, there are multiple T-888 models having an advantage of looking like a basic human being. There was even a female sized T - 888
I would love to see a State of Decay style game in the Terminator future. Scanning new recruits , going out to scavenge and dodging terminators, building your base
@@Joshua_N-A lolll that would be Hella crazy coz you can crush hordes with trucks easily comparing to irod machines with weapons. Richard comment make me realize of sod songs ' hope prevails' very nostalgic.
This game rewards you for remembering stuff from the movies. So I am so glad I came prepared with a handful of pipebombs and maxed my hacking as high as possible for this stage. Turrets helped a lot, and choosing 2-3 T-800s in your path to blow up helped with an escape route. Didn't make it less terrifying though.
This is incredible. Everything is really consistent with the first two movies. It still keeps that noir, retro-future atmosphere. This is what the movie franchise should’ve became after the first two.

@@shashankr5180 he means from terminator 3 there is a military advert with Arnold as a soldier who would be the face of the terminator but he had a really goofy voice and a nerdy skinny guy says in Arnold's real voice 'we can fix it'.
the idea of being hunted by a machine that nigh on near indestructable is terrifying as it doesnt sleep, it doesnt feel pain, can think of many ways to lure, kill and hunt is just creepy and scary at the same time. i even thought it can find you in your sleep and kill you painfully without you even knowing what happend or how it found you
"It can't be bargained with, it can't be reasoned with; It doesn't feel pity! Or remorse! Or fear! And it absolutely WILL NOT STOP! EVER! Until YOU are DEAD!" Kyle Reese, " The Terminator"
I just finished playing some of this game like an hour ago!! This game gets very close to the brutality of what such machines would do to humanity but so far no game has really caught it.. not like how Alien Isolation caught what it would be like to go up against such a creature as in the movies!! We need a pure horror terminator game.. one that is R-Rated that shows us what machines would do to humanity if they were to take over but also needed to harvest humans so they could make cyborgs and The Terminator franchise can do it.. but it needs developers who are willing to push it like Alian Isolation was and that game will go down as the best Alien game of all time!!
I like how the movies and games had to gimp the terminators so heavily to even give the hope of a chance. Like, theres no way that thing isn't scanning infrared for one and can most likely hear your heartbeat and other noises your body makes naturally. Maybe they're just toying with you.
@@arc00ta And no way are they gonna throw you against the walls or furnitures when they catch you. Once a Terminator gets ahold of you, it will immediately crush your skull with its hands or pull out your heart through your chest.
Imagine this: You're a soldier and were sent to clean out a part of the city from traps and terminators. As you walk through the desolate streets, you split from your group into a back alley, where you hear a cry for help. It's a kid. You're hesitant at first, but your instincts are suppressed by the need to protect the defenceless. You hear a plasma gun shooting, so you know it's a terminator. You signal your team and you head into the building. You check every room until you find a room with two dead people. Freshly killed. You hear a quiet sobbing from the bathroom. You open it. It's a little girl. She screams at first, but then calms down and hugs you, crying. You ask your team if the building is clear, they confirm. You take the girl and head back to the base. On your way back you can't shake this feeling of dread. Maybe you should've been faster, not hesitant. Then her parents could've been alive. You reach the base. The girl is sent to the doc for a check up. It's night now. You fall asleep and the girl is sleeping next to you. Suddenly you feel a cold stinging feeling, followed by a fast thrust and extreme pain, but you can't scream. You open your eyes and it's the girl on top of you, her arm deep inside your abdomen, pierced your diaphragm so you can't exhale. She has this static smile on her face as she reaches further into you, piercing your lungs and stomach. Finally she stabs your heart. You die knowing that you let your guard down and let a terminator in the barracks. You should've listened to your instincts. Before everything fades out you hear another stabbing noise from the bed beside you and a silent exhale. The stabbing noises and death continue as you fade away.
@@avtist5639 did you really have to twist that into perversion territory. Is it so impossible to just think the guy, feeling horribly responsible for the death of her parents, simply became a sort of surrogate father at that time, watching over the child in a hellscape existance.
This is what the sequels should’ve been after Terminator 3. The 4th one should’ve been a horror movie about someone gathering, assembling & organizing a ragtag group until they bump into John Connor at the end of the film to get that outside perspective of what happened apart from the main characters, develop a new set of characters and slowly build them from there, with 5 devoted to serious battles against the machines and 6 the attack against skynet at Cheyenne Mountain that leads him to send T800 to 1984 and the resistance sending Kyle Reese to the same year. While salvation tried to get into the future war, some of the elements were not compelling enough and under-utilized the horror element of the future war which the movie should’ve been. The only thing I remember from that movie was John Connor was stabbed and then was ridiculously given a heart transplant with the help of the hybrid human-machine character the concept of which while alright should’ve come in much later, because you already have the resistance reprogramming the captured terminators anyway, no need for that mcguffin to be introduced.
Personally, I think they should've not even acknowledged T3: Rise Of The Machines, and just made it a prequel to the first 2 films. T3 wasn't that good, and it rendered everything the Conners accomplished in T2 moot.
I wish they could figure out a good reboot concept that someone simultaneously validates and invalidates every sequel by placing everything t3-6 (and heck even this) in to "alternate timelines" because the time travel splinters reality or some such nonsense. But like a good idea lol
@@hakezula The problem is that there seems to be this obsession of trying to recapture the magic of Terminator 2, which is impossible, cause that was a near perfect film. They need to do something different.
@@sgauden02 unfortunately T2 also killed the franchise. Yes it was an epic movie, one of the best of the 90's, its effects still hold up today.... But... It was sci-fi action, action makes more money than horror and like you said they tried to capture the T2 magic in future movies. What they should have done was made at the very least T3 horror or even T2 horror. Whilst the T-1000 was a great idea it never captured the horror of the original T-800 for me. Even the T-X in true form was scarier than the T-1000, cause whats scary about a blob of metal (apart from when it died in the molten steel). Halloween, Friday, Nightmare, they kept pumping those out as horror because that's what they were. It wasn't until the 4th or 5th in those franchises before people started saying 'wtf' but people did that with T3 onwards because they lost all sense of unstoppable fear the Terminators were meant to evoke.
Being ruthless killing machines doesn't make them mindless. Skynet likely has a protocol to preserve the bodies for further testing and at least some amount of programmed respect for the dead. The terminator in some movies or a series said it best. They are programmed to kill efficiently it isnt programmed to be cruel. Say what you want but the T800s well being mechanical monsters, they were not themselves monsters. This changed when terminators with more free thought such as the T-1000
I agree, the covering is weird, but the body bags make disposing of all the 'pieces' easier I'd guess. Otherwise, having resources to make plastics and transporting it around, thats alot of energy/resources that dosen't benifit it any
Body baging the corpses could be a leftover protocol. It's possible that the terminators or skynet had a battlefield/crime scene processing protocol programed in by the original creators. When Skynet took over, this protocol was simply adapted, and used to support the collection of humans and human remains for skynet's research into the infiltration models.
this whole mission freaked me out, but my heart was absolutely pounding when i left the lab and watched the whole squad of machines enter looking for me. the music and pacing just made the escape feel so tense and i felt like at any moment i would be spotted and need to run. in fact, if that is what had actually happened i think it would be among my top gaming moments
This is hands down the best build-on & useage of the original movies' soundtrack, i have EVER heard. That music had me cutting cigars with nervousness & apprehension. Holy fuck. I love it.
@@adrunkewok Could I do that on the steamdeck, could you please tell me how do you mod the music into the game and point out where could I get the mp3 file
This game was great. A little rough around the edges in places but the night time scenes nailed the aesthetic and atmosphere. Music and sound effects were great too. Truly a love letter for the fans
Quite horryifing moment when the plutoon of terminators walk by with such relentless stride - Makes one think twice about machines, never tiring, cannot be reasoned with.
Imagine if they did a game like Alien Isolation but it was a Terminator that was chasing the player.... That AI from the game was terrifying with the unperdictability of the Alien.. now put it on a Terminator.
This is how game based on movie franchise should look. Give a players fan service but at the same time make something new and tangible. Everything in this game oozes with dripping atmosphere from the Terminator movies. They did really good job with this one
In the actual game, they use the t-1000 theme in this section, just rearranged and sounding slightly different. This guy modded the game to have the music directly from the first Terminator movie.
I love that you can faintly hear the T-1000 music…this game just oozes with amazing fan service so rare to see such a beautiful piece of art in video gaming these days
If only they made a scene like this in a terminator movie with that scary soundtrack. I would be so tensed up i would be like "Wow thats amazzzing" 😳😲😖😩😵🤯🤯🤯
Damn. Now I want a war torn horror game set in the Terminator's original future. I don't care if it's TechCom or a scavenger, or a random civilian. Just the idea of a (perceived) indestructible metal skeleton hunting you down and all you have is a weapon that YOU don't know if it'll take down a Terminator is horrifying.
This was the scariest the terminators got in this game. You're totally unequipped to kill them. But before long you get plasma rifles and they aren't really scary anymore, just various degrees of hard to kill
When I saw the T800 coming in front of me I ran like sarah in T2 to nearest room to hide. I lock the room but he saw me when I was going in. He literally broke the door in T800 style my heart was pounding soo fast. I was hiding in the corner of the room. Luckily he doesn't saw me so I got some breath. I can't never forget that moment. That was scary af.
This game is so freakin awesome. A must play for terminator fans. In the beginning these things are scary as hell before you get the right gear to take them on
I am a firm believer that before the T800 models became the standard, the machines were skinning suitable sized victims alive - from top to bottom and just wrapped an infiltrator unit like a sock. In the T1 movie, Kyle Reese said the first infiltrator units had skin made of rubber (T600), but later models had "living" skin covering them, but I am sure that before Skynet figured out it could grow tissue over the endo-skeleton, it had to improvise with what it had on hand...
Real skin would just fall apart too easily, and it's too thin to hold its shape over a mechanical endoskeleton. Rubber or plastic would be more effective at making it look even remotely human, even as a first try.
Absolutely love this game, hard to pick back up where I left off at times. Even with plasma rifles I still get my heart beating out of my chest with adrenaline facing the T-800+ machines, the others I can handle but those walking skeletons mixed with the music really sends that pump a pounding.
Did you guys enjoy playing resistance? Was thinking of picking it up on Steam at some point. Have read some mixed reviews. Honestly looks worth a play through.?
This game is a must have if you are a fan. Not the best game ever but by far the best and most true to the movies terminator game you will find and its suspensful and fun
Long before this game came out I knew how terrifying this mechanical creation was - Adaptable AI, night vision, thermal imaging, motion detection, sound detection, and an entire database of human intellect and biology. It doesn’t need to smell because the tools needed to detect and destroy are far more reliable than a sense of smell. It doesn’t need to worry about steady posture and breathing to know where to aim. Its failures are simply learning experiences for the other Terminators to build upon. It knows where you’re hiding before you even have an idea of hiding. It knows where you will run before you try to escape. It knows your needs and will eradicate them before you get hungry or thirsty. It knows how long to deprive you of sleep because it knows you can’t stay awake forever like it can. It knows your limits better than you do. The arrogance of man is to think he is smarter than a supercomputer.
The error of the super computer....? L O G I C ... We as a species can be one of if not the most illogical creature in all creation. We fight even with no reason to fight. Human logic- You will have to kill him in order to change his mind about a plan of action he is committed even in the face of defeat. Computer Logic: ....Syntax error.... Since humans clearly understand the meaning of sacrifice be it others or their own to a cause as simple as their own greed, they will a have been shown to do whatever is necessary in pursuit of their goals. If the whole logic shown from a super computer against mankind as a whole was to annihilate us to the point of extinction to protect itself misses one very important point, for all its abilities, and its questionable intelligence it all comes down to something as simple as emotion. Emotions and instincts drive us in our wants, desires, motivations. A computer by declaring war on humans wouldn't waste the effort in such a campaign only to willingly allow itself or to do in fact cause it's own termination now would it? That would somehow seem very inefficient or illogical in the way a computer processes things isn't it? Humans on the other would only thing that changes between us are the personal reasons we convince ourselves to make them. In the end it came down to a simple matter of being human.
Just realized they made one like 4/5 years ago, but it's more like a tell tale game, I would like to see a planet of the apes game more like RDR/Skyrim or an open world Survival game, you could pick between humans or apes, build trust or deceive, soo many possibilities
I always imagined the skelebots were wasted as infantry units, when sitting in wrecked cars looking dead painted up like charred skeletons… looking like they’re casualties… *not activating until the human squad passes them by…*
In realist, if this happened, those bots would have thermal imaging and could see through things in the dark and wouldn’t need the laser grid unless it was for containment. It would be much more scarier because hiding would be difficult, and the machines know how to use chemical weapons and gas, so humans would quickly be wiped out.
This is why I hate what the studios have done to the Terminator franchise. After 3 they really should have quite the whole time travel business and made the movie everyone got little snippets of in the movies, a dark, gritty, survival horror, guerilla warfare movie about the war against Skynet. Even a series of they wanted, first film, or season would be introducing whichever guerilla squads you'd be following, and set up how brutal and harsh living in such a world would be, and would take place before the invention of the successful infiltration models, the second film, or season, would take place as and after the successful infiltration models are deviating the resistance, the main mission of the story would be the successful capture, undamaged, of an infiltrator for "classified" reasons. The last movie, or series, would take place building up to the assault on the Skynet defense grind, by this time, after countless deaths of characters in the previous entries, the remaining squads are rolled into one, and their mission isn't the assault, their mission is to hold back the machine reinforcements as the assault goes on, and they have to hold out for a specific amount of time, under an unending assault, and nobody has ever lasted that long; it would be a horrifying bloody affair.
I held off buying this game for a long time thinking it wasn't gonna be that good BUT boy was I wrong!!! Once you get into it, it's really good, my heartrate was going up at times because the Terminators would not die. I really enjoyed it and it's definitely a game you wanna play at night alone in complete darkness ❤
The atmosphere is really a well done piece of work. I could feel the tension walking around this nightmarish scenario. I have never played this game, I'll have to pick it up!
This mission gave me goose bumps and kept me on my toes. I remember going through it so slow, reprograming all of the turrets and sneaking up on the first terminator you see. It felt so nice to knife it in the neck and get my first plasma rifle. That was awesome, I felt much better and waited around during the fight by the generator for the turrets to take out more of them and stock up on plasma rifles.
Ewok, you NAILED this one. Ultra-high tension and dread, and with the background music droning on, you made this clip into something that most gamers simply let slip by...and that is, the fear this game can induce, if you just let it. Most players will simply turn it into another shoot-em-up run-through, but you went the other way, and embraced the horror. WELL DONE!!
Even a couple of terminators can cause chaos to society..imagine hundreds of them walking around with laser guns!they are truly the strongest,horrific and ruthless movie characters ever created..
One thing that i always loved about the terminators is their armor, thats near impervious to all types of metal ammunition. It took a .50 BMG through its power supply to take down the T-800 in the newer movie. Basically without military intervention, an entire platoon of 800 models could take and occupy 1990s LA. Because high velocity rifles like an AR-15 or M16 weren't gifted to law enforcement until after the 1997 North Hollywood shootout. I mean in the first movie a T-800 wipes out... what.. 17 police officers? If i remember right. And lets not forget the amount of automatic, semi-automatic, and shotgun fire Arnie received in Judgement Day, my favorite movie of all time.
