All cutscenes for Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty.
If you notice an odd flicker, that's probably because I had to record and render this video at 30 FPS instead of the usual 60 FPS, and KZhead only displays 30 FPS on all its videos anyway so it's not like recording in 60 FPS would have made a difference.
A sad fact, that a lot of people don't know: @46:32 when Raynor is giving his speech on Char, the dogtag of the deceased marine "M. Koiter" was actually the name of a 19 year old Blizzard artist who died from heart failure in 2004. - It's a sombre but really cool way to honor one of their team. Knowing that, makes the speech and the words he says way heavier. RIP.
RIP
Blessings to his family & co-workers.
:P it is not sad ... just nobady give a fu#$ ... cause why should ... :P
Dude, awesome, thanks for pointing that out
Yeah
It's amazing how after 10 years these cinematics still hold up the way they do! Old Blizzard pulled off something amazing!
when you pour love and care into a series its gonna be amazing.
Honestly these are pretty trash besides the first scene. For 2010 they could have been a lot better
These aren't that good compared to the first game and brood war. Besides the first one with the convict suiting up. And that's what I think they lost, the best cinematics from the first one featured nameless humans that made you scared. Also transforming Raynor from the likeable Bruce Willis in 5th element by not just repairing his busted hairline but giving him a full mane of Raven hair is laughable
Some people are never happy. JFC.@@voiceofreason2674

*Meanwhile me wearing socks with sandals*
I gotta say, I absolutely love how Raynor used Tychus' anger against him. That ploy with the cigarette was pretty awesome. And using the cable to short out the suit: clever!
I think the final cinematic is very powerful In WoL and HotS it's amazing how these can make you feel so many emotions over something that isn't real idk if it's just me but I love it
This guy gets it
CheFong Wong Well his name is robin hood.
Seriously man! If my woman was betrayed like that, I would end the world for her. But she better become a monster and come avenge me!
"Bout time we kick this revolution into overdrive" Next scene: Raynor taking more shots
He's healing his 200 hp))
He’s starting a revolution in his kidneys
He took over the whole town on Mar Sara planet in-between those cutscenes
Can we stop and recognize Tychus’ reluctance to fulfill his orders out of loyalty to his friends? I mean, we’ve seen Tychus kicking ass all campaign, he totally could’ve killed Kerrigan outright if he’d really wanted to. I think that he joined up with Raynor to help stick it to Mengsk and enjoy his last days with good booze, good friends and the only thing he’s good at: making war. His hesitance, even a touch of sadness in his eyes when he says “damned shame” before Jim kills him, all speak tremendously to his character and I think Jim understood him in the end, even if only in a “He made his choice, I made mine” kinda way. I adore Tychus, so perhaps I’m biased, but I’d like to think that I like Tychus *because* of these facts. The world doesn’t need more Tychus, but it does need *one*.
Yea, I think Tychus never meant to betray Raynor and kill Kerrigan from the start. He isn't exactly a good person considering him being an outlaw for most of his past but I feel like he did start making up for it. The whole reason he was in prison in the first place was because him and Jim were set up in a heist, and only one of them would be able to escape, with Tychus literally saying he'd never done a noble thing in his life, unlike Raynor, and so he took the fall for him. He had two options, to probably rot and die in prison or be able meet up with his best friend again and help him in the short time that he has. He did nudge Raynor a bit throughout the campaign by telling him how Kerrigan cannot be saved, and that it was better to just kill her, to make sure if saving Kerrigan really was what Raynor had wanted the most. When he saw that Raynor had succeeded though, and that he was wrong, he went with Raynor's decision and accepted his fate. If Tychus REALLY did mean to kill Kerrigan, he would've simply just not used the laser on his pistol, or shoot Raynor and his buddies with his minigun while their backs were turned and then shoot Kerrigan, or set them all up in a trap with the Dominion or something. I think he would ultimately rather die to his Best Friend, than to someone the likes of Mengsk, especially in a painless way like a headshot which is why he had his visor open. I also think that Tychus would've actually liked that Raynor left his body on Char, since he maybe would've seen it as what he deserved, a fitting place for someone whose an "Outlaw" at heart. Or because such a practical man like Tychus simply wouldn't care what happened to him after he died, and if he didn't then he definitely wouldn't want his friend risking his or any more lives just to retrieve it.
I noticed this for the first time. Tychus stops and has an actual non-cynical moment right before he decides to take the shot. Pretty great storytelling.
As tychus said before the attack on char began, raynor showed him what true freedom looked like. When he pulled the trigger knowing raynor would block it, he chose to die a free man, because he knrew the "freedom" he bargained with mengsk was just an illusion
That is what makes his death tragic. He was a dead man walking from the start. Over the campaign he was having fun hanging out and causing chaos with his best friend. Knowing he has to betray him at the end. Either betray his friend or tell him the truth. Tychus would rather die with a clear conscience then turn on Jimmy.
Without knowing how the SC2 saga ends, it would have been prudent to eliminate Kerrigan way earlier or at the earliest opportunity before she rallies the zergs and kills billions. I'm fairly certain that Menks would have never released Tychus even if he did kill Kerrigan and Raynor(if he shot Kerrigan, he probably would have had to shoot Raynor).
Considering what we see of the Protoss here, I wonder how their regular society goes. A city full of aliens saying creepy things to each other before drifting into a dark corner and disappearing?
The Dark Templar barely ever had a society. They only ever had a small tribe on Shakuras. The primary Protoss live in large golden societies with principles and robots.
Nemesis-0300 So who do we see during actual games, the Dark Templar or Mr. Robot Guys? (I'm guessing the robot-society-people)
Yeah, we see the Khala, the robot society ones. The Dark Templars and the Khala sort have combined a bit since Starcraft 1, for instance, Stalkers are the Dark Templar's answer to dragoons and immortals.
I miss Dragoons ;[
Slaver Studios yeah they do. In LotV it’s confirmed that Shakuras hosted over a 100 million Nerazim,
I love how the voodoo doll affected Tychus.
It was freaking hillarious seeing Tychus being fucked around through a voodoo doll xD
abacs21 The one thing I hate about the ending is that you can't with good co-operation get an ending where when Tychus is about to take his shot the Doll is used to disable him and the doll has a side quest related to Tychus in the 2nd part. It had such unused potential...
Aki Greus Tychus had a special body armor that he couldn't remove and he didn't let others investigate it (nor did he actually tell them that he was unable to remove it), because if it was tampered with or if he refused orders taken from Mengsk (shooting Kerrigan) then it would've self destructed... Conclusion: the voodoo doll wouldn't have saved his life, he was doomed from the beginning
Aki Greus In case you don't believe me: 2:40 "You'll carry your prison with you" -> He can't take it off 48:15 "You have your orders Mr. Findlay, carry them out!" And at the same time something starts flashing red inside his suit...
Zoxygene I'm pretty sure the red blinking lights when he was told to kill Kerrigan were an indicator of imminent self destruction to accelerate his decision.
24:03 Matt Horner is the savior for catching that bottle of single malt.
A good admiral never lets good alcohol go to waste.

This is the type of love and care you just don't see put into games anymore. The sheer enthusiasm to just make the whole experience feel cinematic and intense just for the player's entertainment isn't really something you see these days.
Arcturus: Convict 626... today, you go free Convict 626: Meega nala Kweesta!! MUAHAHAHAHA...!
The final scene definitely has that Hans Zimmer touch to it.. Epic
It feels like tychus knew how it would turn out the moment jimmy asked him, and just rolled with it.
0:00-3:39 Tychus is "born", warcraft in spaaaace begins. 3:40 Raynor at the bar. These titles are mine, official titles can be found in game. 5:20 Meeting at the bar. 8:00 Hyperion 9:50 Tychus had a target 11:58 "you're a good man, Jim Raynor." 13:14 Dr. Zoid zerg 15:20 Zera tool 17:15 After New Folsom with Tosh 19:35 Same, I think, with Nova 21:21 Kerrigan betrayed on Tarsonis. A different version exists in SC 24:00 "we are who we choose to be". 25:25 Mobius foundation discovered; Valerian reveal. 28:05 "I will rule this sector or see it burnt to ashes around me!" Comes after the UNN upload. 30:06 sweet home Alabama. Bar fight in the Hyperion, poor jukebox. 34:05 Zeratul's musings, fights zerg, Queen of Blades. 38:15 fight gets taken to Char. 41:00 "the natives are getting restless" 43:43 the battlefield, etc 47:24 Kerrigan reborn. Tychus is alive no more. Human chapter is over. I came here looking for something Swann said between missions, oh well.
Did you find it by now? Swann always had the best dialogue
what did the Jukebox do to Tychus? his drunk ass didnt need to do that ;-;
I haven't played this game in so long, this still gets me excited.
I think Wings of liberty are much better, in terms of storyline, than Hearth of the swarm. I liked WoL a lot, I don't get it why people critisize it so much.
too much fighting zerg and protoss, not enough terran on terran battles.
Despite the bad plot and kerrigan personality flop, HotS have a lot of great character. Basically Arbathur and Zagara are my favourite characters in starcraft now
Kharriz Abiyasa how is the plot bad?
Rob Laney It's just predictable as crap. The hero Raynor saves his damsel in distress Kerrigan and, despite promising to kill her at the end of Brood War, manages to save her and thwarts the betrayer plan of his once best friend who is under control of the enemy.
you have to assume he only saved her because of zeratul though, so yes, it DID fit the story.
My friend got me into starcraft long time ago when we first met. So many great memories. He and I realy connected with him and matts relationship. Gonna be making a 40k army for him that painted and converted to be dark templars
Which army eldar?
"Feels like old times already" man that nostalgia always hits me LOL
I always went with Nova just for that cutscene. Poor Tychus.
what do you mean by " went with nova" ? Just Curious :)
for imformation at each chapter you should pick from the two
@@guangyaowang1891 I believe he means of the Tychus cutscene with the voodoo doll
I always picked tosh since stun is freaking op and mission is easier itself. And those spectres got good quotes. Well ghosts got amazing death quote,but that's an exception.
I personally always chose Tosh after learning Nova lied(?) (If I recall correctly). And because Spectres have badass armour, and I adore seeing them in the armoury. Plus, in lore the Spectres are pretty much superior Ghosts but with more mental problems. Seemed like a good option to me.
Don't see Nova ever run out of energy when cloaking but karrigan does. Lmao
kerrigan have old suit, and she was in fight too long time
SC1 Ghosts didn't have an upgrade for infinite cloaking, and they even had a _25_ energy penalty for every time you activate it. On top of that, regular overlords are detectors as well... yeah, ghosts aren't so great in SC1. Not unless you have a nuke silo or 5 ready anyway ;)
I really felt this game had leagues better story than the next two. The Zerg one in particular went off the rails imo. anyway loved this game. Wings of Librety was the glory days.
28:12 There is a guy flying on Matt! WTF!

Even in the future Alabama is still Relevant
INCEST IS WINCEST
The south in this universe technically won the civil war. Kinda sucks we don't see the confederate flag in this game.
@@mdj9636 uh? is that in lore or something?
@@sarcasmenul no cause thats not true😂
@@mdj9636 You see the confederate flag in SC 1
I feel so sorry for Kerrigan I can't believe the commander just left her to die.
I think Tychus knew of Kerrigan's importance to the future war effort, and untrustworthiness of those who imprisoned him. He chose to be killed by his friend, denying enemies the victory.
AWESOME VIDEO! Starcraft II is a truly awesome game... it was released 5 years ago, I have lost my touch, energy and magic looong ago, but will get back and play this again, and not so zombielike as I've been doing for long.
44:01 No matter what side , every soldier is the one who suffer the most
Mechanical Engineer here. That combat suit at the starting is completely wrong in 7 different ways that I noticed off the top of my head, and probably more that I didn't catch. BUT STILL, the sheer amount of detail, artistry, thought, and engineering know-how that went in to making that opening cinematic... One of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. I'm in awe. But because I can't help myself 1. The hip joints don't actually have structure going in the right directions to bear weight. And there's so many tubes and rods down in the hips that there's no room for the wearer's hips, seen at 2:04 and especially at 2:15. 2. The 'spinal column' is nonsense. Those bulky plates over the top are the only part that look strong, and they're just flopping around not doing anything. And the animation looks like the links are plugging into his spine, but we can clearly see that he has no cybernetic implants on his back. 3. The cybernetic implants in his shoulders don't connect to any part of the suit. At 1:56 we see they just go underneath a piece of frame, and at 2:33 we can see the section of the suit that would connect to them, but there's nothing there, just fabric and a few rods. 4. From the width of the shoulders and the shot at 2:32, it's clear that he's actually wearing the suit with his arms out sideways, with his elbows inside the suit's shoulders, and 2:17 shows his hands inside the suit's elbows. This would break his wrists every time the suit bends its elbows past about 15 degrees. 5. 2:44 He's got exposed jet turbines and hydraulic hoses right there on top of the machine? These are exceptionally vulnerable components. Two bullets and he's done. They should be covered in armor. 6. LIFE SUPPORT. You expect this guy to live out years of his life inside this thing? The bare metal parts on his skin are gonna chafe something awful. And he's gonna need to crap and piss some time, and you just left his pants on? And you let him smoke a cigar inside a sealed helmet? He's gonna be useless for combat inside 18 hours. Tops. 7. There are altogether too many moving parts on this whole setup to even begin to describe. Everything in the video is overcomplicated and fragile. The armor plates are handled by arms with jointed fingers? The long, spindly robot arms are trying to do precision welds while he's moving around underneath? The spinning plunging plugs at 2:09 that I can't imagine a use for. It's all nonsense. All of it. Nonsense... And at 1:13... That's a Lilo and Stitch reference or I'll eat my hat.
Nice analysis. You oughta do a video about it, I'd sub :P
Uh, okay, how you do propose to make this suit efficient?
The first 3 minutes and 42 seconds of this is certified ASMR material to me. I still remember the announcement. "YES LORD!! STARCRAFT 2!! FINALLY!!"
"Convict 626" "Stitch. My. Name. Stitch"
Damn, I was expecting Tychus to just fire into the dirt but they played it straight, he was a badass though
These are the best cutscenes ive ever seen in my life
6:53 aww poor fly
UltraJerky hahaahahahahahahaha
Putting on terran armor looks painful
I think his armor is unique because it was designed to kill him

That last scene is still the only time I cried in starcraft history. As of that scene coming out I had been playing broodmare since 2003. It was a long journey total point and I was just happy the Raynor finally got his happily ever after
@@SquirrelTheSquirrel Yeah same :) I get that some people didn't like that Raynor went after Kerrigan, but they leave out how Zerathul pushed him into trying to redeem her, and ultimately he succeeded. It was a great story, the last great story that Blizzard made. The last hurrah of the old guard.
Still coming here to see the last part, one of the greatest love stories
PLEASE MAKE A FREAKING MOVIE!!
That would be nice
+AussieAussieOZoioioi Yes agreed...a movie with only cinematics...not that awkward Warcraft movie blizzard is making... If they make a full movie with Warcraft, Starcraft or Diablo with just their cinematics it would be phenomenal.
+Matthew Ferrusi Blizzard itself oversees on Warcraft movie. They wouldn't do that way if they wouldn't wanted it. ;) I hope the movie will be good. Maybe it would really look better fully in CGI effects like Avatar movie (actors scanned or what and then re-created in post production), but unfortunately it's not. Maybe Starcraft movie (if they decide to create it) will be done this way. :)
+AussieAussieOZoioioi in The CGI Movie Department They Are Awesome too (proof is the Overwatch Cinematic Trailer which is Truly Cinema Level)

It’s funny, Matt Horner is the commander you play as in SC1.
Just as you play as Artanis in SC1 then control him in Brood War?
Matt Horner is not the Magistrate from SC1.
The final scene is so awesome...
Fun fact: The part where Mengsk says, "I will not be stopped, not by you, the Confederates, the Protoss, or anyone! I will rule this sector or see it burn to ashes around me!" is a re-created version of what Mengsk said in the 10th part of the StarCraft 1 campaign "Rebel Yell.".
thanks for the upload :D
Its been said that all stories follow more or less the same arc. Its in the telling that sets them apart.
The general was such a badass. It's too bad he wasn't in the original games, which had such a better plot.
47:16 Thats one epic speech, scene and background music. But underneath all that, its about him, Raynor, trying to get it on with Kerrigan. 48:45 That line there....is the cue for you to lower down your visor to withstand a possible bullet discharge toward your face.
Tykus and Alarak are something else
Betraying Tosh is so low. Could never bring myself to do it.
I get a kick from Matt's face when Nova kills Tosh. XD
i love these cutscenes
I always found it funny how the cinematic are stupidly high HD and the in-game cutscenes are 100x lower quality due to the limitations of technology
Nice: sat through the whole thing! Good story!

The direction in these is spot on.
28:10 Michael Liberty! :D
shout out to original StarCraft, which is about as old as I am.
WoL was way better than HotS. I had changes in pacing and emotional content, in HotS it s "beat (insert enemy) to a pull and proceed to the next"
What a blast from the past!
Good, legendary epic cinematic scenes :)
Has anyone else thought about how boring and emotionless almost all of these scenes of dialogue would be without the music?
Yeah, it's just like Jimmy without his unibrow.
well to be fair they live in a world where you have to live in constant fear of attack from not only you're own people but 2 other races so ya their life's don't really have a silver lining that you kind easily find.
Blitzcrank grabbing dat Ashe Music acts on your entire mind and body. Put the inception music while searching for your keys because you lost them, and it will be the most epic key seeking you've ever had.
That is the whole point of videogame story telling.
Isnt it like that for every movie tho?
I really wish someone made a WELL DONE movie of starcraft, with the quality of Avatar more or less, not being crappy, i think people would love it
It would suck. Leave StarCraft to a computer game. Please don't give out horrible ideas when this franchise is starting to suck as it is.

Can your PC handle it now?
I love the Firefly tribute during the bar fight.
Came here to say this
The Cantina plays 'Freebird', awesome.
The plots aren't truly that great, and more than half the time they're predictable. Starcraft II has definitely been better than most games out today, but being able to spread it out over hour-long missions helps a lot of the story, and you can't do that in a movie since they usually end an hour and a half in. For that reason, I want video games to stay video games and away from the movie theater.
A worthy ans
aww I wanna control and pet one of those things it's like having a giant alien dog XD
Joseph Stan the carbot one is better tho
Cathartic to say the least. Gotta love the old fire and fury speech. "Cause here we are in the mouth of hell, and we made it this far by leaning on each other."
