[@jordonturner9559]

Incorrect my friends where do you thing the chimera got the money for all their tech?

[@moriskurth628]

The Swiss also turned their country pretty much into a fortress, with massive bunker complexes in the mountains, bridges and railways rigged to explode, compulsory military service for all able-bodied males of 20 (while females can volunteer), and legal gun ownership. It isn't that Switzerland is unassailable, but rather that they made any invasion so costly and difficult, that it wouldn't be worth the effort of men and materiel needed to make it successful. And since the Chimera don't really care about logistics...

I still want more Resistance game to end the story. However, there's one things I want to know the most is about Russia Empire and Tsar. There are many things we all want to know about Russia Empire after they cut off all communications with outside world: -How was the living condition looks like in Russia(even Communist was defeated. Lenin and his party fail to overthrow Tsar)? Are they the same like USSR or worse? -What kind of person Tsar really is? Ruthless? Tyranny? Too paranoid? Or he's no different from Joseph Stalin? "Purge" -Is there any civil war/uprising(overthrown him) when Tsar fail to stop Chimera?(people try to escape and flee to the West or nearest borders like China/Japan/Europe/Alaska/Central Asia rather than being kill by Angry Night) -Do Tsar have any successors for the throne? Is there even fighting over the throne among the family? Let's say some member in the family want to ask outside world to help. On the other hands, another want to continued fighting and keep the Chimera secret from the rest of the world. -Do Tsar is still alive or dead? If he still alive, where is he? Did he luckily escape before the fall of his empire? If he's dead, do he have any successors or who should be next on the throne? -How many family members do Tsar have in this timelines? -Where do most of Russian survivors escape to after the fall of motherland? Highest mountain somewhere near Kazakhstan where there's still secret operational base for developing secret weapons to counter Chimera? Central Asia? Or even Europe? -Where are the remaining survivors of Imperial Russian Army? Is there any operational base somewhere in Russia or even outside Russia? (Let's say in Antarctica) -What kind of basic infantry weapons do they use to fought Chimera? Do there technology and weapons at the same technological level as the West? I'm not just talking about tank, aircraft, assault rifle, sniper rifle, shotgun, pistol, rpg, and etc. I can imagine something Soviet Sci-Fi looking guns. For example: 1.) Pistol/Machine Pistol = Base from TT33 Tokarev with 20 rounds magazine 2.) Assault Rifle = A fictional SVT40/AK47 chambered in 7.62x54mm with 30 rounds magazine including GP25 Grenade Launcher 3.) Light Machine Gun = A mix between RPD/PKM/DPM chambered in 7.62x54mm with 150 rounds drum magazine 4.) Sniper Rifle = A mix between Mosin Nagant and PTRS41 chambered in 14.5x114mm with 6 rounds magazine 5.) Carbine = Bullpup assault rifle base from TKB experimental assault rifle chambered in 7.62x54mm with 30 rounds magazine use by Royal Imperial Spetsnaz Unit(RISU for short) 6.) Fully Automatic Assault Shotgun = Based from PPSH41 using 12 guage buckshot with 20 rounds drum magazine 7.) RPG = A fictional RPG-7 that fire 2 rockets with the same ability as LAARK 8.) Flamethrower = A fictional flamethrower with under barrel napalm grenade launcher 9.) Tesla Electric Gun = Similar to Chimera Atomizer 10.) Main Battle Tank = Similar to C&C Red Alert Mammoth Tank 11.) Attack/Transport Helicopter = Similar to Mi-24 Hind with two variants: Gunship/Transport Heli -How long did US knew about Chimera in first place? Did Tsar contact them and asking for help in first place or US contact them first in favor to stop Chimera spreading? -What's that object that crash in Siberia? A ship? Capsules? Spire missile? Why Siberia is so much important to Chimera? -How did Malikov get the Pure Chimera DNA from anyway? Did he just travel all the way to Siberia to get it? And how do Pure Chimera exactly looks like? (I still cannot imagine how's that worm armor looking creature that were kept in SPRA tube class storage and fossil found in Resistance 3 is Pure Chimera) -Did Malikov ever found any Grey Tech artifact in Russia? -Why didn't Tsar asking help from the West in first place? Did he became paranoid of US betrayal? (SPRA already knew it's too late to save Russia so that's why they only pick up a few important survivors like Malikov) -Is there any more Russian scientists that have survive? -What will happen next after Chimera has been defeated in Russia? How will Russia move foward? Will they change themselves to be more like modern Russia Federation(democracy) or something else? -How would people around the world feel about Russia from now on? Will they still want to blame Russia for failing to stop Chimera/not telling entire world about Chimera existence in first place? -And most importantly, what is that loop broadcasting anyway? About the Angry Night. -Where is James Grayson now? Will he join up with Russian resistance to travel through Siberia to find the source of Chimera invasion? (I hope this would be the final chapter of Resistance) James: I'm going to end this war once and for all. Russian Resistance: URAAAA!!!!! James: Next stop Siberia.

Lets be honest, if they were to create a Prequel game, taking place in Imperial Russia, whilst they are desperately trying to stop and hold back Chimera, it could potentially revive the franchise.

[@LORDNAG1]

I don't think yall included the whole lore, albeit at the last game? There's alot of holes left, but the chimera where the mutant offspring of human and the original chimera who I forgot what they call themselves, which actually where native to earth. Form what I got form playing all the games it seem they lost a galactic war long ago and retreated to there homeworld earth and hybridnated. The Russia empire woke the up because they investigated a Meteor that reveal where they were resting. Then the rest is history.

[@BeyondDaX]

Nerrrddddd

[@helixvoidecho]

Incorrect. The chimera were said to have colonized earth several million years ago (several thousands perhaps, according to daedalus' account of "what you took from us"), they did fight a war with a far superior civilization and lost, they were forced to leave earth but in a hurry (evident by the towers being burried underground and pure chimeran fossils being found) and eventually rebuilt their home and tried to take earth back.

4:27 An Abrams, V22 Osprey, and an *F86* *Sabre* in one picture!? LOL Things must be bad, we are using anything we have.

[@SuperGman117]

It's not an Osprey. In the world of Resistance, there exist two VTOL aircraft used by the US military: the UH-17 Atlas, and the U/AV-17 Hawk. As for the "Abrams", it's probably *supposed* some version of the M-12 Sabertooth with additional armor and other bits that may give it a somewhat Abrams-ish appearance. Though I will admit it's probably an oversight on the part of the artist. The Sabre jets, however, are exactly what they're supposed to be.

[@asparadog]

Resistance two was one of my favourite games in its time. Thank you for this video @The Templin Institute

[@luisfernandosantosn]

I never liked the end of Resistance 2 and the plot it set for Resistance 3. I mean, you save UK, thry launch an attack on France, win there, push to the east europe as far as the russian border finding some pockets of resistance, go on destroying towers, then... well the US fell and the world ended... the offensive in europe didn't put a strain on the chimera, their resources and effort to build their fleets, it was plausable, but kind turned useless you effort in the game. I think that ending could've worked better, but it seemed like they wrote as they went they didn't had it planned. Then came resistance 3 and they found themselfs corneredin the setting and plot, I liked the end, but it was a final point, the epicness of the universe was kind lost (for me at least).

[@vanguard6498]

ikr, it made the all the stuff you did in Resistance 1 kinda pointless

[@BeyondDaX]

Not every story is gonna on a positive note

[@MrRPGTHEBEST]

I like how the Chimera counterattack, that made the story more interesting and even realistic. However, I agree I would have prefered the story of Resistance 3 being different. I wanted a military offensive to the heart of Russia to discover the origin of the Chimera. Perhaps the wormhole should have opened there instead of New York.

[@sadgamer8487]

We want a Resistance reboot, not remake, a reboot with Nathan Hale continues across the Europe to the Chimera's homeworld and destroys it. Of course they can make others games set in America, Asia and Oceania.

[@MuadDiiib]

out of all the sci fi aliens, these i fear the most. once you see the spires in the sky, it is over.

[@cheerfulpessimist952]

This series had such a cool setting and story, lots of good memories. You guys should consider doing a video on the Adeptus Mechanicus from Warhammer 40k? Would be nice to get a video about the Toaster bois! Either that or a video on the Moscow Metro and it's factions from the Metro 2033 series.

[@somerandomdude7785]

High Command suggestions: 1. 2nd Galactic Civil War (Star Wars) 2. 13th Black Crusade (Warhammer 40k) 3. Emergence Day (Gears of War) 4. Infinity War (Marvel) 5. War of the Assassins (Dune)

[@oreroundpvp896]

Resistance 1 was so good, but I heard Resistance 2 and 3 were not so good. I love the idea of Europe succumbing to the aliens in a surprise attack but having the USA & UK launch a massive counter-attack with it's massive industrial resources to retake Europe. Like in 'the edge of tomorrow' but without the time gimmick. Also it's kinda weird how humanity never reverse engineered alien tech in this. No wonder they eventually lost.

[@vanguard6498]

They did reverse engineer tech tho, the marksman rifle is a reversed engineered human weapon, also the British have a reversed engineered bullseye Did do your research?
