[@jamesduncanlinch6322]

The issue is the time was passing. If the immortals were real, that will be the time of the gathering , after that computers and universal surveillance make it totally unviable. It could be a prequel on the other hand, but then changing Times could easily make the series simple video game format fail.

[@stevefreeman9265]

Agree

[@moniquecanivet2263]

It was an official idea of the creators of the show, but it never happened sadly.

[@zaxbitterzen2178]

Methos is the type of personality that would last thousand's of years. He never gets too attached to anything/anyone, is constantly learning, isn't obsessed with heroics like Macleod is, is incredibly adaptive, and knows when he can't win. He also realizes just how much chivalry in a deathmatch is stupid.

Duncan was a warrior, Methos was a killer. THE killer, really. An executioner. Death on a Horse. The Pale Rider.

[@deaddudegaming]

I don't agree with this. There no way in times Methos lived in and they kind of man he was then he wasn't a warrior. I think Methos never really ever showed Duncan what he was truly capable of. Everything with him was about tactics and strategy. I think a big part of why he doesn't come off as warrior is because he was just trying to survive and lost his reason to be a fighter like Duncan. It would have been awesome if they had done a show about Methos. Man the stories they could have done.

[@robertphillips213]

@@deaddudegaming Warrior as in honoring their enemies, seeking to gain glory and improvement through a militant path in life where non-combatants are never to be targets nor ate the allowed to be targeted, and all indulgence in the spoils of war are forbidden, save 98% tax on any gold/silver/spices claimed in enemy territory so a fighter is compensated yet not rewarded or made more prosperous in any way. The perfect good guy knightly hero of our unfailingly ethical modern times that people seem to somehow believe had actually existed in a significant number among the ranks of knights during the dark/medieval/mid-middle ages. The PG version of modern interpretation. Methos did not apply fair play, mercy, compassion, or show any respect during combat. He is clever and calculating with the world divided into enemies and amusements where genocide was his bread and butter. It was Methos vs the World with Methos winning that conflict between them by maintaining a slow, steady pacing during His Ride during the Bronze Age. He had no respect for enemies, no matter how wise or kind: they died to him or to his brothers, serving as a more challenging type of sport to the Horsemen with sieges, sackings, and the overall annihilation of larger population centers being their holiday vacations. He respects Duncan as a personal friend, respected Rebecca and Darius for their self-discipline and choices at odds with their nature as people. Death is far too easy in Methos' mind for him to feel impressed or respectful of another Immortal because they are good at killing or fighting. I think he respects those that choose their own path, holding to their family and/or their principals over their own life/wants/desires but never cease learning, loving, suffering, and growing to become more. He is practical at heart, the ever adaptable and cunning survivor, but if you were not previously a dear friend, then expect no mercy, no limits, and no empathy from Death on a Horse, just a very sick sense of irony and dry wit.

[@DontBeCringe]

@@mr.whisper3338 yea but over 5k years old? It was a plot device, he shouldn't be as rusty as he is, even with staying out of the game.

[@blakebowles7818]

It kind of depends. The show was always a little vague and inconsistent on the concept of “power” in the Immortals. In the first season or two, age pretty much guaranteed the victor, with Duncan barely beating a few of his older opponents. As the series moved on, the power of a handful of quickening’s was also implied to be a big deal. Other examples has quickening’s from newborn immortals as being a coveted and valuable resource when the absence of their own power should have really minimized the effect. As the series progressed, skill and training was made to be as much a factor as overall power. Duncan fought on equal terms with the 4 horseman, (not counting methos). After the death of Tess, Duncan was portrayed as someone who was training nonstop and fighting a virtual gauntlet. The implication being that this state of non stop combat and focus combined with his skill is what allowed him to compete against the older immortals.

[@bensonen6855]

I always felt that the Methos we meet is very out of practice and usually very low on motivation and aggression so it's hard to k wo how good he'd really be. It's what makes him interesting that when you see him fight and actually in the zone he's lethal and can win very quickly. When he fights Kalas he admits he hasn't fought in a long time and spends their duel retreating the whole time

[@zerocool1ist]

I dont think the dark quickening would have had an effect on methos because he was one of the four horseman sooo how much darker than that can you get.

[@lordoffaiyum9727]

Exactly his mind was too strong. Hence Casandra speak power not working on Kronos. Kronos is way to old and Gifted like Methos.

[@miguelpasamano4995]

Not like it was worth the risk. Plus Connor once had a Dark Quickening in which he needed Mac, Brenda, and Rachel to get him back to normal when he killed Kurgan before they went to ScotLand before Kell had Brenda killed in that car crash and might've even paid that junkie to kill Tess and Richie then tried to have Richie killed multiple times just to hurt Mac just to hurt Connor.

Methos could beat Duncan and anyone, but he never had that killer instinct. Even as a 4 horseman.

[@Sidragrosm]

Oh, He had it alright! That was *WHY!* He was The Pale Rider..! But unlike Darius (another VERY salty dog) Methos didn't have the luxury of a Light Quickening to temper Himself. He did it all on His own. Up one side, namely *EVIL* (in bold caps, no less) to Good, (though a bit naughty) until we the fans first saw him. I imagine if He'd have been provoked enough..? Everyone, from Jacob Kell to The Kurgan himself would've been cut down by Him! Granted, Methos would've had to have been COMPLETELY on top of His game to take The Kurgan! (even IF The Kurgan preferred burning out over fading away...!) Though I utterly LOATHE the film, check out Methos in Highlander the source - more than a little of His Pale Rider aspect appears... and it is SCARY!

[@Gofex1337]

You're not accounting for the Quickening. Every person Duncan kills, transfers is power to him. Including the power of those that person killed, and the power of those they killed. One person who is 500 years old that kills five other people that are 500 years old each. That's 2500 years worth of practice, skill and knowledge gained. A combined 3000 years. People like to point out how old various characters are. But their combined age from quickening can greatly change their "age". Afaik Mythos is only 5000, and Duncan could be 30000 by comparison.

[@robertphillips213]

@@Gofex1337 You are assuming Methos hasn't killed other Immortals. In truth, Methos was incredibly deadly with unmatched experience who has litterally evolved with swordsmanship. He just liked to pretend he wasn't quite as dangerous as he really was so that Duncan wouldn't feel threatened by him. It's hard to be friends with someone you fear and Methos wanted Duncan as his friend. Otherwise the knowledge that Methos could kill Duncan at any time, any place whenever it was convenient for him would always haunt the younger Immortal.

TV series is better than the movies, but how did he come back in the last movie? I have not seen the entire tv series. I could not catch them all.

[@316Autos]

Him dying happened in the series finale, which was a take on "It's a wonderful life". Duncan got to see what his friends looked like if he was never born, and that's where he killed Methos. Didn't actually happen in the main timeline, so Methos didn't die until that abomination known as "Highlander: The Source". If you haven't seen the two final episodes of the show, you REALLY need to . One of the best series finales of all time.

​@@316AutosMethos didn't die in the Source either. And even uf ge did its not canon just like the animated series, Anime, and Highlander II

[@Elmo_Fuddleputt]

Who wound up killing Methos?

[@WesleyWyndam-Pryce]

Nobody

[@TripAces]

I think Methos should of been made to be a 'near-equal' to Duncan to let fans know.. what if it came to them 2.. it wouldn't be so one sided........ IMHO so that 7:27 might be the outcome potential... crafty

[@borbafatt]

That would kind of ruin the point of methos though. His skills lie more in being clever and deceitful as opposed to extremely skillful with a sword. He’s the Loki to Duncan’s Thor.

wouldve been cool to have a highlander video game series kinda like vampire the mascarade...they were going to release a game the same time endgame came out but the reviews were bad for the game

No talking just let it out Because nobody knows you But I do !

[@johnfitton3716]

Pretty shit with a sword to say he was one of the four horsemen of the apocalipse

[@paulinemegson8519]

And you’re pretty shit with spelling to be writing English, but here we are.

[@simonjack9699]

I still can't believe that he sacrificed himself for Duncan in Highlander the source so Duncan can go and kill the guardian and save Kate . Even when they lost their immortality before his sacrifice Methos even told Duncan you always stayed true to who you immortal or not that's why you are the one it was always you:( We don't know the closer you are to the source the more you lose your immortality When I first watched Highlander The Source when Duncan defeated the guardian I was saying to myself that's for Dawson you bastard

[@nicholasward5770]

We do not know if the cannibals got him. He was a former horseman after all. I think his chances of getting away weren't that bad.

[@simonjack9699]

@@nicholasward5770 Yeah and we don't know if they did . We can only assume that he survived . It's better to think that he died because we will know that his sacrifice meant something Period that he sacrificed himself to give Duncan a chance to stop the guardian . You can think of it as his Redemption for being a Horseman

[@simonjack9699]

@@nicholasward5770 Also you make it seem like I never seen The Highlander TV show without knowing if I did I not . I fucking hate people who do that just because different opinions... I grew up watching the films and the tv show... Just because somebody has a different opinion other than your own doesn't mean you can butcher their intelligence.. We are both fans of Highlander but to be honest I rather not commented if I knew prior that you were going to be a jackass

[@nicholasward5770]

If you're reading things in my comments that aren't there, I think it's better that you refrain from commenting too.

He survived

The saddest thing is to see Methos betray Silas.

[@TheMugenmunster]

kronos would have lit kalas up

[@WesleyWyndam-Pryce]

Kronos is comical. He's a great example of show don't tell, except they told and forgot to show. He was extremely underwhelming as a character. Grayson, Horton, Kalas and Xavier are all over him by leagues, not to mention other throwaway villains of the week. Yes, the actor could wield a sword, but the character was absurd.

[@mikeyates7931]

I've always found the idea of Women Immortals to be preposterous ; they would be killed in their very first fight due to their lesser upper body strength

[@jacobharris954]

Only a fool would over rely on strength

[@drizzo4669]

5000 years old and barely capable of defending himself.

[@andytay5507]

that's an ugly fight. shoulda used stunt doubles.

[@lotariosere8393]

5000 years old? and never research te quickening? i mean all that time and dint learn how to use quickening to get super speed or chargin hits?

[@canadanionerdo5434]

For somebody that has been around since ... what...24...bc or something. Methos is pretty bad with a sword

[@johnroscoe2406]

Why are so many Gen Z manosphere kiddies drawn to a 1990s tv show? Go away. This isn't for you. This was never for you.

I use to tell women I was 200 or 300 years old. They never gave me that lustful look. Never worked.
