Titus is a lot more expressive and cynical than he was 200 years ago because.... While it is implied Leandros called the Inquisition out of good intentions and genuinely thought Titus would be given a fair trial, Inquisitor Thrax, the guy who picked Titus up from Graia, was notoriously paranoid (even by Inquisition standards) and distrust of Space Marines in general, thus had ZERO intention of finding out if Leandros' accusation is true or not. As far as Thrax was concerned, any SM who were touched by the Warp, is a heretic and had to be brutally questioned. Titus spent 100 year in Thrax's custody where he was kept in stasis whenever he wasn't getting mind probed or interrogated. Ultramarines demanded Titus to be properly tested for corruption and return to the chapter, but Thrax always insisted he had to be sure. Turned out the Emperor had a sense of humor when Thrax himself ended up getting possessed by a daemon during a crackdown on renegade chapter and his Grey Knight retinue summary executed him before the daemon could fully manifest. Another Inquisitor and Red Hunters Space Marine Chapter kill team were sent to investigate and found Titus and a number of astartes were kept prisoner. Instead of turning them back to the Inquisition, said Inquisitor instead handed them to Deathwatch. After a series of evaluation by chaplain of the Watch, Titus was deemed uncorrupted and fit for duty, however, he decided to serve as a Blackshield under an alias as an act of penance despite his proven loyalty.

Guilliman ordered the Primaris Project after the Heresy during his reforms. All candidates were placed into stasis until Guilliman, who at this point was taking a corrupted Warp knife nap for 10k years, ordered them to be implemented. Oh and it isn't just children from after the Heresy, it is children throughout the 10,000 years until Guilliman's awakening, that Cawl claimed for the Primaris Project.

[@MrEntaray]

Many of the first Primaris were put into stasis with virtual simulations to "train" them for their new positions. Fun fact, during those simulations, whenever they "died", they'd just be put back into another scenario. A lot of the early Primaris thought they were immortal at first, and were, in fact, not.

His mind and memories were broken but they learned his name: Gravius. And that mofo didn't die from old age, he died because the planet erupted into a massive lava sphere and Salamanders couldn't take him with them because his armor had fused to the captain chair that he was sitting on. And also, when Tau took down a dreadnought, they were shocked to the core when they discovered that the mech AND the pilot was over 6000 years old - much older than their entire civilization.

"Technically" is the key here, he was for the most parts in stasis that locks time for all intense and purpose, so when he awoke he was still actually only that same child that he was when he first got locked into stasis. Same goes actually also for Dreadnaughts and most Chaos Marines. Only exception to this would be the "uncrowned princes" the first batch of Dark Angels that got tangled up with the fallen that are actually that old and have been active since before the dawn of the Imperium itself.

Titus' best course of action was to not say anything in hopes of not incurring any discord, as per the Captain's orders.

Because he was accused by both an Inquisitor and his own Brother of being a traitor. Then he got kidnapped by that Inquisitor, a man who hates Astartes as he regards them as mutants, and tortured him as he already believed Titus to be guilty and he just needed to find evidence of that guilt. Titus believed that his Chapter abandonded him for the believe of him being a heretic and he got depressed for putting shame to the name of the Ultramarine Chapter. What he of course didnt knew is that Calgar himself lodged an official complained with the Highest Echelons of the Inqusition inlcuding a direct complained to the Inquisitor representative within the High Council which lead to an investigation where even many within the Inqusistion themselves agreed with the complained. Later it was discovered the Inquisitor went a bit too deep into the Warpsouce and got himself possed by an daemonic entity and killed by Grey Knights. A Inquisitorial strike force was dispatched to investigate his holdings where Titus and many others where found - and inturn investigated where almost all where proven innocent. Titus still believing he shamed the Ultramarines requested to be inducted into the Death Watch under a new identity. Remember he was 2nd Captain, one of the highest ranks of an founding Legion Chapter, if he was suspected of being a traitor and heretic, even just that could be enough to seriously do damage towards the entire Adeptus Astartes branch.

[@somerandomschmuck2547]

Something I'm a little confused about. Chairon specifically mentions having been a boy on Calth "when the Word Bearers attacked". The only attacks I can find related to Calth are the battle of Calth near the start of the Heresy (something which specifically involved the Word Bearers and some Daemons), and more recent attacks by the Tyranids. Chairon has no service pins, and it's noted that Titus couldn't have been a Primaris to begin with because of his service pins putting him at being at least 200 years old. So Chairon was present for an event that occurred nearly 10,000 years ago, but doesn't seem to have the age or experience to match that. I know Cawl was sitting on a fair number of Marines he kept in stasis. Is this supposed to imply Chairon was frozen that entire time, and that Cawl had at the very least the early stages of Primaris Ascension figured out that far back, and presumably what he'd do was start the process, freeze people till he figured the next couple steps out, warm them up to continue before putting them back in, continue till he'd gotten a finished process before stuffing them back into storage until Bobby gave the okay to let em loose?

[@mediumtext8038]

He is a full made Primaris, therefore most of that 10k years, he was in statis. Experience wise, Titus outrank Chairon with at least 200 years of service.

[@Artorion]

I'm surprised he's not older honestly i always thought 200 is too young in his case

[@shaggycan]

I think the only thing in the entire game that gave me pause was the Ultramarines deploying squads in weird numbers. It should be 5 or 10, these are the codex astartes poster boys after all. Now I get if a squad gets redeployed after taking casualties, but a fresh deployment from the barge should be a full squad, anything else would feel wrong to them.

[@_spooT]

I mean, Chairon is technically 10000 years old. Sure in stasis, but the years still count

[@EricSwordswinger]

Why is this a surprise? You see those service beads that some of the Astartes, including Titus, have punched into their foreheads? Each of those beads is supposed to represent 100 years of service. According to Titus' forehead, he's at least 400 years old.

[@enigma9273]

each gold stud is 100 years. sliver studs are 50

[@GotrekGurnisson]

He’s not even that old for someone who was a captain

[@rebelcowboy9656]

It isn't a big deal for Space Marines to be over 200 years old. They're merely saying that his age means he isn't Primaris and that he couldn't be Captain Titus because no one could survive what happened to him. Several Space Marines are over 200 years old though. Caiaphas Cain and Commisar Yarrick are regular humans that lived to be more than 200 years old.

[@theduke3778]

Gold studs normally denote a century of service so he should be 400+

titus has 4 gold studs, making him over 400 years old. silver studs would mean half a century or 50 years while gold are a century or 100 years. chairon didnt see they were gold soo 200 is only wrong in a sense that hes past it.

[@tatsunithelennyking2540]

Studs mean different things in different chapters. If I'm not wrong it's estimated titus is 250 years old more or less. 50 years per stud.

[@maxwellhill4754]

Guilliman and Cawl gotta make a fuckton more geneseed and a fuckton of primaris/terminator gear and just turn all the guardsmen into primaris. Even if 99% of them die in the conversion, having 1% of the guard become primaris would be a better survival rate and go from a few hundred thousand space marines to like a trillion.

[@mykeh3155]

He's about 400 years old. The developers confirmed in their post release videos that he served 200 years of penance with the Deathwatch, so was already 200 years old before ending up with them going off of the service studs.

He says “he couldn’t have been born a primaris” but isn’t nobody born a primaris? Nobody is even born an astartes. Are they grown in vats or something?

Doesn't a single gold stud represent 100 years of service? By that Titus would have 400 years of service.

[@Marvolo14]

The only complaint I have so far is the walking and running animations. Its too stiff and lumbering. As if the animators were thinking about how humans would move in that heavy armor, but these arent humans. They're post-human space marines and they are often described in the lore as shockingly fast and graceful in their armor. They are able to go from a standstill to a 50 mph sprint in the blink of an eye. They can move their arms and legs faster than the human brain can process visual inputs and faster than human nerve conduction. They should wear that armor and move in it nimbly and as if it is a part of them. Im sure the animators were also thinking that it would look weird if no sense of weight was conveyed in the space marines' movement, but thats one of the most common reactions normal humans have to space marines. Their size and mass is completely contrary to how they actually move and the speed they are capable of. It wouldnt have been a bad thing if gamers had the same reaction to the space marines moving in the armor as if it didnt weigh much.

[@raze667]

why do they have a GIANT chunk of blue armor clipping through their torsos at the end of this vid?

Those are supposed to be loose plates that protect the hips. They have a tendency to stop being affected by physics in some cutscenes, it's a purely visual bug that doesn't carry into gameplay.
