BehrHuggie

What?


xSol0_Dol0x

This makes me so sad


traincarryinggravy

Gotta be a jest. I've never gotten into the game being a playstation guy, but that advertisement might be one of gaming's best, in my opinion.


SafetyBig7939

This makes me so sad


SoloGamingVentures

Just leave it alone and it won’t bother you, let it be on its way. If it comes closer yell as loud as you can and make yourself as large as possible.

Fuck it, I'm ready to be hurt again. Let's do it.

SIGHHHH here we go again :D

“It never ends” -Marcus


That-Hipster-Gal

Release a DLC where you play as Benjamin Carmine through training and a few missions from his perspective of Gears 2 up to falling into the worm. [He awakes inside the worm alone and a song begins to play.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pfi1UQ_PKQI) He's armed only with a snub and limited ammo as the Namacytes close in. I really love it when [games come full circle.](https://youtu.be/rNCF6sDymRc)


zeolus123

Man, I missed that song. The gears trailers always had bangers for music behind them. It's how I discovered mazzy star lol from their gears three trailer.


Battleboo_7

Omg. Carmine Sr is going to be legendary and then kick a blsck cat by mistake


Due-Cloud-8825

This gives me 4th survivor feels from RE2


PliskenTheSnake

Like Six at the end of Reach.


Jokkitch

So am i


JohnJoe-117

"And theeen we can kill Marcus in 6."


Oddballforlife

And they’ll find a way to bring Dom back from the dead first so he can then experience the death of Marcus too before dying again


JohnJoe-117

Patrick, your genius is showing!


Chetmatterson

Maria reincarnates as a locust princess and records it all on instagram live


C_Noticles

He ends up being the swarm king next to Reyna. The swarm control his body but it's still wrestling with his strong mind. Camera switches to Dom perspective as his mind is helpless as his body strangles the life out of marcus old bag o bones. Or stabs him similar to raam on kim


TardedRail

I just know they're going to kill him, too, and when it happens, I will officially be done with the franchise. Not in an angry way, but more or so in a Thanos sitting on his farm at the end of the Infinity War kinda way. *It is done.*


SparxxWarrior97

Honestly that has been me since gears 3


Two_Tailed_Fox2002

honestly fair enough


JohnJoe-117

To be honest, I am okay with either option, but slightly prefer Marcus getting to see his son JD live a good life and eventually get to play around with grandkids.


TardedRail

Same. I don’t really think he deserves to die in 6. It would be poor writing if he did, in my opinion.


Shark_Bite_OoOoAh

Not to mention his parents are killed and Maria’s mental health plummets/she loses her mind constantly trying to find their kids.


JoelMira

Gears has always been depressing as fuck Gears 4-5 were just colorful and depressing.


GOFBLITZMAGURUKDAKKA

This is a fantastic idea and it could make for a great gears 2 and 3 story experience.


MIHAEL1ST

Nothing beats the depression of having Kait as the MC. I'd rather cry a lake over anything with Dom and Marcus than having Kait as ESG MC. I can't hate enough.


oscarq0727

I’m the biggest hater, I hate the way that she walk, the way that she talk, I hate the way that she dress.


houseofjudy

Her hair, wack. Her gear, wack. Her jewelry, wack. The way that she talks, wack.


LTBLACK

Rather cry than sleep


Good_Introduction_13

Real


hairy_bipples

Can’t wait to see Dom’s children get torn apart by wretches in the most horrific way possible


NefariousnessAny1585

What would be worse is a mission where Dom and Marcus attempt to save them but at the end of the level they figure out their a.ready gone.


adminsarebiggay

I can’t wait for the depression again


fallenouroboros

I’m both excited and kind of scared because we may get to see more of Maria in game


lolzidop

Oh God, playing E-Day and getting a connection to her to watch her be taken, to then play through Gears 1-3 and deal with that again


fallenouroboros

I swear playing that trilogy and hearing Doms tale…if you see the whole thing and don’t cry several times you have no soul


Hveachie

Maria went missing a couple years after E-Day, but her family dying is why she goes missing. She loses her mind and thinks they’re still alive.


Zealousideal-Yak-824

.. so we finally get to see the women Dom always loved in her prime as she slowly decends into madness before ultimately becoming a victim...... oh tears will be shed.


Hveachie

I hope they get Courtney Ford back to play her. She also voiced Piper in Fallout 4, so she can easily give Maria a similar personality. From what I remember in Aspho Fields, she was kind of a goof when she was younger - climbing trees and being really witty. Kind of reminded me of Elle from the first ten minutes of Up.


Inevitable-Branch713

I hope they get the same actor back to play Dom too!


Logic-DL

Should easily be able to, he came back for fucken Da Vinci in the recent Assassin's Creed VR game and that was I think for like a couple minutes max, can absolutely believe he'd return to voice Dom


Inevitable-Branch713

Did he voice Dom for that little prequel mission in Gears 4?


Logic-DL

Yes


Malefiicentt

He also voices dom in multiplayer/escape mode in Gears 5


average-mk4

Fucking yes


Shark_Bite_OoOoAh

She always kept wondering off to find the kids, and Dom would have to go find her or put the word out to keep an eye out for her. Which is why he had ppl on the lookout. But that last time she was never found.


[deleted]

Hey, full props to Dom for staying loyal to Maria. Noting only did he marry her after accidently knocking her up, did about anything to keep them afloat, did everything possible to keep her safe after E-Day and thier kids dying, relentlessly searched for over a decade after her disappearance being thier with at her end. And afterwards still holding on to her memory even in the face of another intrested woman. I think 99 out of a 100 men would move at some point after years of looking. He needs a special type of title, Alpha Chad just doesn't cut it.


SapporoSimp

Little brothers connect more with Dom because we always were the ones playing him in coop.


Accomplished-Top-564

As an older brother this is real af


Barnacle_Dude

Facts


Amaranthine7

Partners too. My ex almost cried when Dom died.


fl1ghtmare

LMAOO facts, my little brother was always Dom. i was marcus


SoberKid420

I'm the older brother but now that you mention it, I think this is relatable to me because I was a Nintendo kid back then, and I was always 2P on GoW playing with friends that had Xbox back then. Dom will always be my favorite and I always play as him him as humans in PvP.


IDKandIDC5585

Seems like a perfect opportunity to showcase their true writing skills to me.


InvectiveOfASkeptic

I'm ready to get hurt again


Asleep-Sprinkles-760

They have an opportunity here to make a really heart wrenching story. I actually can’t wait!


unmellowfellow

In the books. Maria is still around until just before the Hammer of Dawn is deployed.


KaiKamakasi

She's around for some time after the Hammer is deployed, she talks to Dom about how he should wear a helmet to deal with the fallout, or maybe it was a mask. Something along those lines anyway


BulkyElk1528

What was his response to that?


PowerDiesel23

And his brother Carlos


YaboiGh0styy

Nah his brother died to a sniper two years prior to E-Day Really he’s the lucky one


CaptianLedger

Wasn't a sniper, he got shot while rushing the bridge to Aspho Point with a couple guys from the squad, Jax and someone else I think. But they all got hosed by bullets, Carlos got hit in the upper thigh and later the chest but they were all from automatic fire not snipers


Shark_Bite_OoOoAh

And then he turned himself into a victim borne IED to take out as many as he could.


Shark_Bite_OoOoAh

And then he turned himself into a victim-borne IED to take out UIR


Dazencobalt17

Carlos died right at the end of the pendulum wars. a few weeks before e-day. Edit: I was wrong guys. Carlos did die two years before e-day. Thanks for the correction u/CaptainLedger


CaptianLedger

Aspho Fields was 2 years before Eday


Dazencobalt17

read the wiki and you're right. sorry for the misinformation. it's been years since I read aspho fields. I thought he died at the end of the pendulum wars just before e day.


CaptianLedger

Nah no worries just trying to keep everyone on the same page for lore so there's no surprises when the game launches! Definitely gunna go back and re listen/read the Karen Traviss books soon now


webb79

Yeah, and they said in an interview they're going to have Marcus and Dom dealing with the death of Carlos to some extent. Marcus and Dom were both closer to Carlos growing up, and they said they want E-Day to show how they became the Marcus and Dom duo we love.


FactEmpty6703

Hol up, shortly after E-Day? So she was missing for 10 years or so? Since Gears of War 1 was a lot of years after the Emergency Day and, well, Gears of War 2 is the continuation of it, almost directly. That, or I'm missing something because I'm quite dumb, wich is probably the case.


YaboiGh0styy

Yeah she was missing for 14 years. Essentially, what happened? Is that the death of her Children and parents lead her to a deep depression which caused her to get into self exile and live with a group of stranded for 14 years. And of course around the time of gears of War 2 her group was captured by the locust and you know the rest. Edit: never mind I was mistaken. She went missing four years after E-Day. Though the reason she went into self exile is still the same.


StergDaZerg

She went missing around four years after Eday. Im reading Jacinto’s Remnant right now and she’s with Adam Fenix when the hammer of dawn strikes happen


KaiKamakasi

And Dom absolutely shit his pants because no one told him she was at the Fenix estate


CaptianLedger

She went missing/wandered away about 4 years after Eday. Gears 2 takes place about 14 1/2 years after Eday so when Dom finds her in Gears 2 she had been gone for about 10 years, she'll definitely be around for the Eday game and at least 4 canon years after


izmaname

I kind of hope the game starts during the imulsion wars and switches to grubs in the second quarter or second half. Kind of like how Halo diverts from alien warfare to parasite warfare. Then I hope we get a sequel set during the in between and a sequel set when Marcus gets arrested. Granted 14 years is a long time so if they play their cards right you could have 2 trilogies during that time. I think it would be dumb to give up on Marcus and Dom again after one title. You also have Anya, Carmine, Carmine, Carmine, Carmine, Kim, Hoffman, Wallin, and Paduk that you can focus on as 3rd and 4ths before introducing the original trilogy characters.


Cotton_Phoenix_97

Having kids and a wife at 21 is absolutely wild if you think about it


YaboiGh0styy

True, but Maria’s pregnancy was an accident and because of the pregnancy they decided to get married soon after despite still being in school. Oh yeah, they were 16 at the time.


Snow_Mexican1

And the Dom was able to provide was to enlist


ActuallyFuryYT

Used to be the norm before the days of struggling to afford an apartment.


thorppeed

Yep back in the 60s my Grandparents had kids at 23 and 21, that's just the way it was


Vivirin

Still crazy to me, most 21 year olds aren't mature enough for kids, nor had they ever been. Your brain doesn't even stop developing until 25 and that's very clear when they have kids. Generational trauma can be largely attributed to not being ready.


RandomnessConfirmed2

Humans are also the most fertile at that age (or at least shortly after puberty). Could be purposeful to help the species continue existing. Tons of factors and possibilities.


Kody_Z

>21 year olds aren't mature enough for kids, nor had they ever been. While mental development hasn't changed, being 21 today vs being 21 60-70 years ago are two **extremely** different things. Today, society and culture literally doesn't allow kids to grow up and mature. 60 years ago you were expected to be out of the house, fully supporting yourself by 21 Also, as someone who has had children in a very stable relationship, while very young and much older. You are never really "ready".


Gilgamesh661

Plus, 60 years ago, teenagers had jobs where they were treated as adults. Or they were enlisting. My great grandfather enlisted in the navy at 16 since ww2 was happening. War makes you grow up fast.


Mordilaa

I’m not mature enough for kids at 27.


Jumpy_Attempt368

Let me introduce you to the the military 


Kody_Z

In Dom's situation he got Maria pregnant while they were in school. They got married shortly after that, moved out and had a decent life before E day. Not quite the same, but I got married at 21 and had kids by 25. I would not change a thing, but I do wish I was a little more mature for both of these major events in my life.


KaiKamakasi

Dom was 16/17 when he got Maria pregnant, which is why he enlisted because the money is really good, just before he shipped out to Aspho at 19 she was pregnant with his daughter


Available_Instance78

Nah. I had my son when I was 20 and my daughter at 23. My wife and I are thankfully fine. Everyone's situation is different.


Cotton_Phoenix_97

Good for you meanwhile, I am nearing 21 and still can't figure out what to do in life


holladayy

I get it, but for people in the military this is very common.


ShilohCyan

wait I'm a casual fan. MARIA WAS MISSING FOR THAT LONG AND HE STILL THOUGHT SHE WAS ALIVE? The way he talked about it, it sounded like it happened between 1 and 2. sheesh.


Gilgamesh661

Really just shows that his mental state was already slipping that early on. He couldn’t accept that she was gone. And then when he had to face it, it broke him.


Deathyhollow

Are we gonna have to live the moment when Dom is waken up by his wife and her telling him that their kids at her parents house?


Iamyourfather____

Hell yeah inject that depression right into my veins!!


Pleasant_Device_2631

Now I can cry as an adult 🥲


sealteamruggs

Wow spoilers /s


Livid_Mammoth4034

What’s /s?


YaboiGh0styy

Essentially, mean sarcasm or joking. When someone adds /s to the end of their sentence is to make sure it’s obvious that they weren’t being serious about their comment.


Livid_Mammoth4034

Alrighty. Thanks.


MrFluffleBuns

I hope we get some proper cinema from the Gears in charge deciding to use the hammer of dawn - losing too much ground, pure desperation not just “release the hammer of dawn” with a stern face


DarkNinjGX

Imagine the game starts with the flashback from gears 2


DocWiggleGiggle

Exactly! This is what I said! It’s going to be an emotional roller coaster


KingCarbon1807

Can't put my finger on why but ever since the original I've felt they did a good job evoking emotion with the writing and VA. Certainly well above what the genre would call for.


Filipino_Jesus

Let's do this!


SolomonRed

I don't think I can handle this man


CynicWalnut

Bring back Karen Traviss!


Midnyte25

Well, she went missing four years after, but yeah.


Substantial-Boss6861

Dom cannot catch a break lol.


AmericanLich

The only game from the showcase I’m stoked for.


xdeltax97

Maria goes missing after E-Day around the time the Hammer of Dawn is deployed.


Cowboy426

Let's save all that emotional stuff for the movie. Right now, gears needs to be metal. Blacker than the blackest black, times infinity. The "trailer" tugged at my heart strings, yes. But I don't think my poor heart can handle gears going back to its roots PLUS emotional story telling


Apathetic0101

Womp womp


SLISKI_JOHNNY

Wait what? That doesn't seem right. He didn't talk about them in Gears 1 which takes place 14 years after E-Day, but he started talking about them in Gears 2, about 1 year after G1 I believe.


Livid_Mammoth4034

“Hey man, no news on the lady. I’d tell you if I heard anything.” -Franklin to Dom, Gears 1


Sozzcat94

This game will be depressing and there will be very little hope. be prepared.


Electronic_Sun_7021

Oh God I didn't even think of that! Noooo!


Buster_McTunder

Maria did go missing 4 years later—- so we might actually just see/hear from a severely depressed Maria.


MIMtite28

Why y'all gotta remind me. Let me live on the high that I get to see Dom in all his glory. The internet sucks sometimes


Gilgamesh661

I don’t wanna see Tai again. I don’t know if I can take it, knowing what happens.


GOFBLITZMAGURUKDAKKA

It'd be very heartbreaking to see Dom break down and lose his shit over his family disappearing


JitterySquirrel

You know for a series with a dudebro reputation, Gears is as as grim and depressing as the last of us games 


iddy94

Whose going to break the news to him.... I'm not doing it this time lads...


Soothsayer--

Really hoping MP is going to be a return to greatness as well


hoppeduponmtndew

I could’ve sworn I read something about Maria mourning the loss of her children in one of the books. It’s been forever.


YaboiGh0styy

Yeah, I was mistaken. Maria went missing four years later not on E-Day.


Spacepunch33

They really rose Dom from the dead just to make him suffer again


Astr0naughtE

Yeah, seeing Dom alive is a gut punch. Maybe Tai can get some justice this go around? But I am excited to launch the resinator again!


Avenge_Willem_Dafoe

Cant wait till he teams up with Sub


Datboibarloss

At least we know Gears is back to being dark as fuck lol.


OGsannin101

If dom is back im back


Mowze94

Want to downvote. Upvote instead.


toyn

Jesus o thought this was mma sub and our boy Reyes just had this happen to him.


Tight-Landscape8720

If she’s missing after E day then why isn’t he searching in Gears 1 and why 2? You’d think after 15 years..


Caqsi

this game is probably gonna make me cry no cap.


Resident_Invite

I imagineted dom son survive make friend with jd


SamRiddleOfCourse

We must stay strong my brothers, sisters, and everything in between. 🙏🏻 😭


BulkyElk1528

You know, I couldn’t remember exactly when Maria went missing. I thought it was between 1 and 2 because he seemed so chipper in 1. Hard to believe she was kept alive and tortured for over 14 years before her suffering ended…


Revolutionary_Ice174

His kids fell down an E hole and Maria wondered a few years into the war I think just a few days before or after Marcus went to prison


DragonfruitEast3738

Theyll probably reference the deaths of his kids and focus more on maria


Brenden98m

I made the joke the other day when the trailer dropped that I was ready to be hurt again. I'm actually not so sure I'm ready to be hurt anymore.


thinkb4youspeak

Spoiler for Gears 2 if you haven't played it. Her name was Maria and you help Dom find her in Gears 2. It's very sad and you most definitely find her.


Valuable_Work_2049

As soon as I saw Dom and heard the Mad World tune, I knew this was gonna be more about Dom than Marcus. I wouldn't even be surprised if we actually play AS Dom, atleast for some missions, if not all


Johnny_Change

Between this and Hellblade 2, I guess I'm finally buying an Xbox.


Plastic-Fill-1181

Not to mention Marcus and Dom JUST buried Carlos. Bro, this game is gonna be so fucking good. I can’t wait for it. I hope we get some Pendulum War action man. Edit: after further review, they didn’t just bury Carlos. I haven’t read Aspho Fields in a couple years so I misremembered. Although I do believe that Dom or Marcus buried their Embry Star with Carlos at the end of the war, so that’s probably what I’m thinking of.


TheSunniestBro

Me and the homies waiting for the next Gears of War story tragedy we can lose our emotional shit over


admiralackbarstepson

Also $10 that the last mission in the game ends with Marcus trying to save his father going against orders which leads to his court Marshall and imprisonment


JDutch921

That's gears baby, all heart break


Fit-Theory690

Didn't his kids die on E-day itself?


HoundofHircine

I’ve never played a single Gears game. Are there any plans for a total PC collection?


anonymouspwrsonn

More than just his kids. They were at his parents on E-day


BoudiccatheWolf

The part in G2 where Dom finally finds Maria is awful. Just so heartbreaking the decision he had to make. Not ashamed to say that got some tears rolling. And when we lost Dom in G3. I nearly passed out from shock.


BulkyElk1528

Unfortunately by posting this, it now won’t have the same effect and impact as Dom’s death because we’re now reminded of it and will be expecting it.


Lukebwwfc

What am I missing? Is the new gears news?


AMoonMonkey

Intro sequence. Doms kids are going to school, Sinkhole appears, school gets swallowed up, corpser comes out and wrecks the area.


snocown

People hated playing as his daughter in 5 so isn’t this literally just giving the community what they want? Hell I remember when they announced the new gears a couple weeks ago and people were passed dom had nothing to do with it. You guys are literally getting what you guys want on both aspects.


ObungasDirtyDookie

Bro I’m actually pumped for this. I’ve never been a huge GoW fan but I think 2 was my intro to it and I had a lot of fun with 3. Everything after just didn’t interest me. This trailer brought back memories of when gaming was actually great. I really hope this Gears is great!


LajosGK22

And his parents, don’t forget them, also his in-laws


JohnnyTheLiar

Fuck, I never knew he had kids.


Livid_Mammoth4034

“You’re with the kids now. That’s home, right?” -Dom to Maria’s grave in Mercy


KreedKafer33

I am actually rather disappointed.  When I first saw the announcement, I imagined that E Day would be a spin off stealth/survival horror game where you play an ordinary CoG civilian trying to escape the rampaging Locust horde.


RoomTemperatureIQMan

Is this a joke? The OG Gears trilogy overseen by Cliffy B are the only titles worth talking about. Gears 5 is woke garbage and a rifle-fest that fell off the Xbox Live most played faster than Gears Judgement.
