Huge thanks to Extellus for his outstanding continuation of the animation. Also to the Lowry gang. (UPDATE) THEY FIXED THE LINE GUN BUG.
The beginning is amazing animation
The animation is amazing work, can't wait for the Mandalore Movie adapation
uncle manni has a new video :3
holy shit that intro is BEAUTIFUL
Oh shit is that Gondola ?
Stop, please, my wallet is dying. I've just bought full HoI4 on sale:(
My favorite part of Mechanicus is that just when you get used to the binary hissing of your robuddies and have settled in, you hear a necron enemy talk to you in perfect English and it freaks you out nearly as much as it freaks the AdMech. It's *great*.
THIS!!!
This is one of the best details on the game and fucked me up too. I love it!
I also love the implication that the sounds your crew makes hasn't been random gibberish. That's how they actually talk.
It's a fantastic nod to how the admech strive to be more machine while necrons want to reclaim their 'humanity'... uh, necromanity?
Dr White necrontyrity?
Worst part, the necron overlord is speaking high gothic. Imagine if the Terminator started telling you exactly how worthless you flesh bags are in perfect Latin. High gothic is so much worse to hear then low gothic.
Me: Oh god it's going to be like XCOM
MG: There's no such thing as accuracy; if the weapon's in range it hits.
Me: Praise the Omnissiah!
The accuracy isn't bad in... *misses a sectopod with a shotgun at pointblank* *inhales*... You know what? I think you have a point.
But it also means you can't dodge shots
No you can still dodge attack, you just need gear for it.
@@Sovann_the_Mighty If you can't dodge, just upgrade them with stuffs that increase healing and dodging rate :)))
Well, with all the neural implants at the disposal of the Mechanicus, I'd be worried if they didn't have something to improve their own soldiers' accuracy.
I love what they've done with the voice acting. They make the necrons speak pure English, and the "humans" speak so binary that it's alien
It's also quite lore-accurate, since (I believe) Necrons communicate using this, understandable-by-all signal wave or something. And, uh... well, Cant Mechanicus xD
@@OrificeHorus I doubt the mechanicus can understand mechanicus😅
I'm still deeply in love with If the Emperor had text to speech's version of the mechanicus
I think it was intentional design. Like since the Mechanicus is so detached from what we currently consider human, they dont speak remotely english or “human.”
But Necrons seem more human due to them showing at least some emotion outside of just text. They connect more with the player than the robots you play as. Even if they have less text and dialogue. (Except the Scaevola, shes pretty damn cool)
the necrons are machines, who wish they weren't, the mechanicus are humans, who wish they weren't
@@none-of-your-busi-ness Why does this sound like the premise of a rom-com?
"Welcome back to Warhammer, there are no space marines this time around"
This... I need more of this
more less space marines!
Also more admech
I Want a third person Mechanicus RPG or something badly, Need to praise the Omnisiah more
What would it take to get a Battlefield game but it’s 95% Imperial Guard? And it includes Guard regiments BESIDES Cadia or Catachan.
@@CdrChaos I like how you think.
"i wonder why mandy's videos are taking so long?"
>full blown animated intro
oh, cool
I have to say, that intro was amazing.
It was made by Extellus
@@faultyinterface yeah it was pretty awesome
I love how everything is on beat too
The guy who made the intro has it stand alone on his channel:
czcams.com/video/yvBTCS3Ky4w/video.html
"Necrons are Undead Space Egyptians"
Undead ROBOT Space Egyptians.
traveling through space in basically boats
they are not robots, though. They are cyborgs at best. If not for their souls and shackled minds it would be just empty shells unable to do anything.
I understand the reason behind turning them into SPESS tomb kings...but i must confess, i liked the older lore of edgy-terminator/skynet faction.
@@dakkahead517 most people that played during 3rd or 4th basically agree. 3rd edition codex was written very well.
@Fourthspartan56 cyborgs are beings of flesh and blood whose flesh and blood slowly but surely is replaced by mechanical implants and such, but keeping their core as a living creature. Without that core they are empty useless shells. Extent of that transformation is quite beautifully explored on in "Ghost in the shell" - which core theme is where humanity ends and machine starts if most if not all of your body is artificial, but mind is that of a human.
God that noise after “for the machine is immortal” gives me shivers every time, it’s so perfect
+1
Every time I start the game I listen to that full speech. It's just so good.
It's like a 40k version of the A10 Warthog's main gun went BRRRRTTT in TITAN.
I think making a t-shirt with that quote at the front and the skull at the back would be quite good.
Reminds me of bf2bc contusion sound. That was so sweet.
Mandalore has his techpriests at 13:25 named briggs and halligan. Maybe they were the droods all along
Well the droods are like Blood priests so not far off
i wish there also was a Lowry
Omg I love these references
Game summary: Space robot priests attempting to stop zombie robot Egyptians from killing them and taking precious artifacts to study.

I was not ready for another godly intro
don't you mean gondly?
Did you mean Omnissiamously?
Neither was I.
Same lol
What do you mean by “another” Wasnt this his first animated intro?
I love the fact that the Mechanicus is a straight up heretical organization in the Imperium and the only reason they haven't been wiped out is because whenever the question of persecuting them comes up it's just met with a big "I'd like to see you try"
The one proof that the Imperium is capable of compromise.
It’s such a Chad way to live lowkey basically just telling the rest of the imperium “good luck with that” and going about their day.
Well that and "So, your genetically superiour ass can make bullets and Tanks, huh? And even if you could, do you REALLY want to spend your time actually working, rather than posing for propaganda posters and feasting? Gosh, I didn't think so.
So, want to enjoy lording over the galaxy in your underwear, and armed with a stick?"
_"because whenever the question of persecuting them comes up it's just met with a big "I'd like to see you try"_
"Why do you need to own all these guns?"
"So I never need to use all these guns."
They also produce/maintain/restore the big clunky mechanical things with guns (as well as the guns themselves) that the Imperium uses to do Imperium things so their heresy is tolerated as it is essential. It is like the mutants of the Navigator Houses. The Imperium is nothing but hypocritical in the 40k millennium.
The sound design in this game absolutely blew me away. Especially the soundtrack. This is true Warhammer 40K fan service.
YES!
ABSOLUTELY !
"Picture Inspector Gadget and he's a monk and he fixes your car."
And the car is the size of Rhode Island and in outer space?
And it runs on incense and holy oils.
And the GPS has a mind of its own sometimes, so smacking your car to make it work might just make it angry.

Hi sir

The Mechanicus appreciates your loyal support.
2:30 “What is a Necron?”
A miserable little pile of necrodermis.
"What is a Necron?"
Nothing but a filthy xeno
Mr. yeast I’m not sure that they even count as xenos when they’re just machines, though the Necrontyr were certainly xenos
edit: they are definitely xeno tech, at least, and that’s heresy
Enough of that. Have at you!
@@mryeast101 Well if that race can erase a god, it is not filthy, Chief :)))
@@TheMIBWORKSHOP hol up, the necrons haven't erased any gods. Just sent any C'Tan that they didn't enslave screaming back to a place where necrons aren't and they seriously rethink creating hyperadvanced slave races.
Also, @Okuyasu the Dumbass they do count as Xenos because they are a race that A. Isn't human B. Doesn't worship the emperor and C. refuses to work with the imperium.

@Chris Hansen Eldritch has definitions outside of Lovecraft. It means alien, strange, or foreign.
They don't speak anything Eldritch. All the English is translated into binary. Sound blips equal one, no sound equals zero.
THIS QUIET OFFENS SLAANESH
THINGS SHALL GET LOUD NOW
It’s not actual binary, it’s made up fantasy binary. Otherwise they’re sound like prolonged Morse code
Gotta remember he's talking to a guard commander, cant speak binary to the fleshlings.
"IS THIS LINUS TECH PRIEST"
Equiped with latest RGB stuff, blinding his enemies.
Do they use AMD?They got red robes and stuff. I think they do. The best non AI computerpower.

He's also wearing a quality stealth robe...find one on lttstore.com
Ha 😂
"basically undead space Egyptians, so that's fresh"
*Screetches in Thousand Sons*
Necrons, are less uh, dusty.
No those are heretical undead space Egyptians. Completely different thing.
@@FitzPenn But I thought that the alien was also heretic?
@@fatboy158 no the Xeno, and the Heretic are equally loathsome but one must have been born human to be a Heretic.
@@FitzPenn Not necessarily. Any creature, human or not, which worships the Ruinous Powers is by definition a heretic. Xenos can be heretics too, although the necrons are not.
As a Necron player I would _love_ a game mode or mod or something that lets you play as them since all the resources are there already. Maybe a tomb tower defense? Keep those damn kids off my lawn!
A tower defense game with waves of AdMechs trying to steal your stuff is a genius idea.
I also really wish I could play this game as necrons
@@The_Sharktocrab There is a DLC for Battlesectors with Necrons.
@@nonein7919 not nearly as good
I'd love a game where you play as Necrons vs. Chaos

Its only my 404th favourite
Da mofuckin yellow sign??????? See you in Carcosa, goodnight
Mate, your username gave me a good laugh. Cheers!
i used that at work the other day.
Word not found is shocking, not even put into advanced/complex term.
I pray the Omnissiah, for this game needs a sequel. It still has a ton of potential, both gameplay and lore wise. There could be a new threat in a form of dark mechanicus and their demonic lawnmowers. Or you could clash with loyal factions in pursuit of STC or some other tech. This happens at least once or twice a week in 40K.
Or even just using this system but as a different faction, like having Tau equip different drones and suits throughout a campaign against Orks and/or Tyranids
@@shigerufan1 now I want a tyrannid game where you can customize the evolutions of your hordes
could be a Total War-esque rts with you ordering around hordes of not-zerglings alongside bigger dudes like Carnifexes, or in a similar turn-based vein to Mechanicus
A mechanicus style game for other fsctions in the Imperium would be great.
Imagine an Imperial Guard game that's built like classic xcom (cover, aiming, permadeath, all soldiers are technically expendable)
You got your wish granted.
Mechanicus 2 has just been announced.
Behold, your wish has been granted! Mechanicus II can now be wishlisted on Steam (and is hopefully in full development, TBA release date though).
I love how both armies don't go all shouty like conventional 40k troop. They wage battle silently its creepy.

Skitarius Alpha: *breaks out the pipe organ*
"My many Omnisiah granted mechadendrites allow me to play this holy instrument in the most effective of ways..."
Proceeds to blast out music that is ALSO a binaric prayer.
I have seen that in the latest update to this game, "the bug" has been fixed apparently:
Fixed: Line weapons not hitting targets. This one was a real tough cookie to uncover. This was truly a greater demon in the source code. Our greatest apologies for the delay in slaying this mighty beast.
All praise to the machine Gods!
Lol I think the poor dev team realised their engine might have some cracks
Sounds like the developers found the right Tech Priest for the job.
The other big one was canoptek spiders never ending their turn and softocking the game.
Superannoying while it lasted but at least sometimes you could rush them on the first turn before they act.
Praise the omnissiah

Hi, would you like to talk to us about our Lord the Omnissiah

"STRAP ME TO THE OPERATING TABLE AND DON'T LET ME OFF IT UNTIL EVERYTHING IS GLEAMING STEEL!!!"
What I love is the mechanicus have robotoized voices. The necrons have humanistic voices. The mechanicus tossed their humanity away willingly, while the necrons lost theirs in bonds. But, we "hear" who has kept their true origins true. The mechanicus are no longer human despite having souls, and the necrons are still necrontyr despite their lack of souls.

Here's a very easily missable detail: the reason you strat with nothing is actually explained... During the warp travel.
You can see a whole lot of errors and warnings pop up. They actually tell you about hull breaches, incursions and the fact that a lot of equipment (and fuel) got vented into the warp.
12:07 A thing I noticed on my playthrough was that you could scan AND destroy the Necron computers, so I ended up specializing one of my priests to do just that. I ended up making a minigame out of how close to 0 I could leave each mission while still getting everything like the grubby Magos I was meant to be.
Yeah the explorator was good for that due to all his movement and melee to destroy terminals in 1 hit

@@johnivanoplimo5172 Is he really now?
@@maximgun3833 Well, that's the popular theory.
A Game Theory!!
Weirdly enough, I've found that having a dedicated melee tech-priest around is pretty useful. Not on every mission of course, but in the tomb of Ubjao and in Lord Ubjao's boss fight specifically, having a Radioshack man coked out on damage buffs with a machine-spirited power axe went very nicely. Not the best fit for every situation, but the right tool for the job.
Not to mention the ability to ignore attacks of opportunity and autoscan in melee, where you can position him to tag three targets at once so they can't shoot without getting smacked first.
The move speed alone is a massive boon because you can run him between all the terminals for extra blackstone/alert regression.
A pure ranged techpriest is also pretty useful since there are many different guns in the game. With all these damage buffs even basic ranged weapons can do a decent amount of damage.
@@517342 the skill where you fill up your cognition gauge is gold. You can just rush the guy and with buffs and troops he's gone in 2 turns no matter what weapons you chose to have with you.
I had a scout/melee techpriest, he dual-wielded the guns that reveal stats, had the sonic detector that also revealed stats in an area, he moved the fastest of all my priests, and his axe was the best free (no CP required) available
definitely very useful at times
Mechanicus feels like a passion project. It's an absolute gem, doubly so for fans of 40k.
ERROR 404: DAMN NOT FOUND
Is it just me or do the good 40k games also have a sense of humour
They remember the roots of the setting.
@Jack Adams ..... orks are the essence of warhammer... some would infact say that the orks are the unwitting architects... and the entirety of warhammer 40k was originally just a peaceful setting where war consisted of just avoiding each other or not giving a helping hand when asked to... then .... some "brainboys" thought creating a psychic race that individually was not that strong, but collectively and nearly unstoabable of reproducing on a cellular constant level was a good idea... sad they never finished working on their project.. and thus warhammer 40k
Izunundara Ixnuvarism which is an odd thing considering that not much is funny in 40k other than the over the top-ness of it
the games workshop guys always had a sense of humour in their magazine White Dwarf and throughout all the Warhammer books
@Jack Adams Dark Humour it was most people call this.
Expended description: "imagine inspector gadget, but he's a monk and fixes your car- occasionally by praying to it".
*usually by praying at it.
@@The_Crimson_Fucker Mechanicum prayers are often repair procedures. Their language is basically a programming language to begin with.
Basically, they repair by rote and procedure without necessarily understanding exactly whats going on.
@@AsaelTheBeast that true? I thought the prayers are usually just the usual religious chant or something similar
@@AsaelTheBeast
I fail to see why you felt the need to point that out to me.
Thats some hardcore Deus Vult-ing ive ever imagined .
This just shows how Sound and Music can make a game. Its especially important in all Warhammer 40k game. if the guns and units don't feel like they have weight to them or the guns don't sound like they have a lot of impact it can break the game. Its the reason i couldn't get in to Space Hulk: Deathwing. out of all of the games problems. The sounds of the Terminators don't sound very terminator like.
2:54 we can't deny the overall presentation is super cool. 40k never looked that interesting to me, but these cyborg clerics looks very intriguing in a good way
I get if you didn’t want to play the games or something but the art didn’t look interesting to you before? How??
@@gaemr_o5147 Those space marines kinda look bad imo, too "spherical" in a way. I am also not a big fan of fantasy settings were humanity dominates the universe just because the authors wants to create a "correlation" with the readers/watchers. The idea of mankind conquering the galaxy sounds ridiculous, the high fantasy setting is even more exaggerated, humans surviving in a land of dragons and other fantastical monsters... so these gimmicks feels forced to me (Steven Erikson spoiled my tastes). Warhammer 40k clearly aggrandize the human factions, the entire universe revolves around our species, that is a gullible concept in my pov
@@RRRRRRRRR33 The humans are the point of view characters yes, but they're not the "Good Guys". There are no good guys in 41st millennium. Humans are struggling from infighting, paranoia, xenophobia and the general consequences of their own hubris. It's a completely ridiculous setting and well worth looking into, there's a faction for everyone I think.
40k didn't....wow.
@@RRRRRRRRR33 I say this with all due respect but your assumptions of how the 40k universe is made are so completely APOCALYPTICALLY based on misinformation or cluelessness it's kind of terrifying. Go learn of what you speak my dude, you'll find a universe filled with cynicism and hatred. A lot of love has been put into the creation of 40k. It's worth a good faith effort to examine, because EVERYTHING in that paragraph you just typed is wrong.
The opening animation was superb, and damn Children of the Omnissiah is an incredible theme
I can't stop repeating it, it's so good
Found that theme when I just had a passing interest in 40K, I've listened to it do many times now I'm being drawn deep into 40K with plans to get some Adeptus Mechanicus miniatures, several of the games, and I've listened to so many lore videos I feel a need to 3D print a full scale set of Mechanicus equipment/augments XD

Man, Dance of the Cryptek is the honestly one of the best pieces of music I've ever heard. So haunting.
This game was a gem. The music alone got me hooked and I must have watched the opening title drop a few dozen times cause I loved the opening dialogue. I played through several times because you could do so many unique difficulties and styles and the units and guns were fun. My last play through I did a kind of 'horde' difficulty where enemy health was halved but spawns and numbers were up 200%. It was an absolute blast.

Silver Onions “thanks to the generous mechanicus guild”
@@ajpewding4058 If you actually read some of the books, you realize that joke is way more accurate than you think.
You are wearing alot of metal my boy
@Marginally Sapient Cactus and Necron are Mr Bones who has his wild ride all across the galaxy. And he doesn't want you on it
I like the depth of field tilt-shift effect. It makes it look like miniatures come to life.
My issue with is that the focal point is *in front of but not including* the camera's actual pivot point, so it takes five inputs to zoom in on something and see it clearly, instead of just one
Never even realized how glorious the display of 20:11 is up until now.
Jesus christ 18 minutes ago, I was just trying to find a clip of the guardsmen saying "Its quiet"
Did Jesus Christ eventually help?
I think he means The Emperor of Mankind, not feeble Jesus christ.
@@Estorium
I think he stayed quiet
Its quiet
@@PuellaMagiHomuraAkemi Jesus christ is always quiet. Only The Emperor talks to you/us.
@@N-Word_Boi_3.0 yeah too bad he's a toilet
"I hold the secrets of the Machine."
"I hear the Machine Spirit's voice."
"It will only take me a moment."
"Ah... a challenge worthy of my skill!"
"As you wish, so shall it be done."
"This able beast should get us there!"
"Thank you, Machine Spirit, for our safe arrival."
The fourth voice-line is burned into my mind.
The way you organized these quotes makes me picture a Techpriest on wikipedia while his internet went out and then played the dinosaur running game while he waited for his internet to get back up and then thanked his router for rebooting.
Ahhhhh nostalgia. I can hear these lines.
@@physsnake A CHALLENGE WORTHY OF MY SKEEEEELS
“This may require some time!”
"They are terminators in space! At least they used to be."
Everytime I manage to forget about Newcrons people remind me.
And then wonder why I drink.
Bring out the Amasec!
I love everything about this game's audio. Rare is the game that I want to play mostly to listen.
"field-trip slash home invasion" THE BEST DESCRIPTION OF THE STORY OF THIS GAME
For the love of god dont ever stop adding in the Marv screams, its such an old joke but still catches me off guard
Where was it here?
For a split second when a skitarii shoots a necron.
Prof. Luigi Got to 4:32
The Call of Cthulhu one was my favorite delivery so far
that and all the hidden gachi. He's been going a bit light on the actual spanks and stuff lately, but Necron Aniki was a nice touch.
Gotta say, I came back to this video by chance, and it dropped me in at the sound design part for some reason, and hearing the sounds of this game instantly compelled me to go back and purge those vile xenos all over again. The soundtrack of this game is fucking fantastic, and the opening cinematic gives me chills and fills me with awe from just the mere presence of the thought of it.
Mechanicus 2 has been annouced!
**Clicks on a video**
**Noosphere plays**
**Instant Like**
P.S.: animation at the intro is so good, i can't even find the words to describe how cool it is
I thought it was Children of Omnissiah
@@muadzm9496 It is Children of the Omnissiah.
I played it on speaker and my toaster started killing Xenos
Pls send help
@@chemicalbacon5210
Purge all Xeno scum. Do you accept Prometheum? It should arrive by Warp travel in about 10 years.
True. Noosphere is for dropping the musical and literal hammer on enemies of the Omnissiah like at 7:23
I fell in love with this game when I heard the deep bass of Faustinius' audio fill up my headphones. Half the reason to play the game is to just subject yourself to as much ear porn as possible.
Oh yeah

Something for the auditory sensors.
@@moque9260 lemme guess its a rick roll
@@moque9260 thank you for not being a rick roll
@@moque9260 Well that set the tingles off and then some!
4:42 Pro tip: from what I have learned playing the game the glyphs all have a set function.
They don’t change or randomize. The rune on the left there heals always and the rune on the right gives blackstone always.
There are two runes that give blackstone. One I think gives more.
I came back to watch this review after seeing the Mechanicus II trailer. So stoked that this excellent gem of a game is getting a sequel.
"Oh boy, this is gonna be good" - the collective internet right now when they see this notification
Yeap EXACTLY!!!!
That's me on every Sseth video.
7:28 I knew that's what Mandalore looked like IRL.
“The Necrons are undead Space Egyptians.”
This is both the simplest, yet most in depth explanation of the Necrons I have ever heard.
Also, Trazyn is bae.
I have yet to read The Infinite and the Divine.
I miss oldcrons.
I love how in a 50 second intro animation he manages to do the feel of 40k better than most videos, video games, or books.
No comissar, there is no AI, only the M A C H I N E S P I R I T
Belisarius Cawl might answer: "Yes"
thinking machines are an insult to the machine spirit
"Look there fleshling, ther is a brain in there!!*
Well, considering how Machine Spirits are just fragments of the Void Dragon, and not actual AI's, yes.
Even with all that technology, they still seek the mystical, long-gone device known as the "toaster".
*Heavy mechanical breathing*
"I too enjoy slapping my cyberdong against the side of a toaster?"
Hey nice, they seek and repair toasters in Wasteland 2, hmm maybe there is some continuity there between the two.
Do they have cyber dong ?
@@BoisegangGaming at least you are honest about it
A big update: if anyone reads this, "The Bug" has been fixed.
I'm afraid to back
What is the bug?
@@memes_the_dna_of_the_soul5487 Beam type weapons wouldn't fire occasionally at your current angle, so you have to waste a step or two to fire beam weapons at your intended target.
21:26 Can't believe you were teasing the Mystery of the Druids video this far back.
So this is Xcom: Toaster Fetishist edition. I'm sold.
I mean they are still fighting aliens, so yeah.
Hold on did they move Toaster Sex day?
Nerozard22 toaster sex dsy is EVERYDAY meat-thing
Yeah except this time around your soldiers can actually hit the bright side of a barn now.
"[[Error]] Damn not found." Is probably one of my new favorite lines. Fantastic stuff.
That has to be the most emotion filled line I've ever heard from a Techpriest.
@@517342 Ironically, it's the tech priest who's supposedly the least emotional on the ship who says it.
"Apple Store Jawa". I've never heard that one before and I love it.
Came back to praise the omnissiah as Mechanicus II announced!
6:25
That's not music.
That's the voice of the machine spirit.
You have a very good point
Is it too much to ask for both?
Shammy:"Mandy, why are you looking like a Tech Priest right now?"
Mandalore:"01100110011101010110001101101011"
That black robe at 2:04 is an obscure reference, my god. good old EE. nice nod to the coolest looking unit
One of my favorite games. I was so proud when I got all of the achievements. Thanks for the rec, Mandalore.
that game has one of the coolest sound design in all history of games
I could listen to the voices as ASMR!
From title drop alone.
Its orgasm.
Its quiet
I never thought I'd fall in love with a musical genre best called "Cathedral Chant-wave", but I did.
This review was great, it made me subscribe, there are few relaxed, objective and comprehensive game reviewers like this out there. Thank you!

"You will learn to hate him"
I don't know who you're talking about because I've deleted the knowledge of his existence from my mind.
He was responsible for ending a few of my first permadeath runs of the game.
The Mechanicus never deletes anything
@@spacemarinesruleall Tell that to Belisairius Cawl's 2 mind wipes, at least one of which may have been voluntary.
that intro, though (I rewatch it every day... also its narrative continuity in the _Homeworld deserts of whatever_ video - cheff's kiss)
Subscribed just for that intro. Played this on PC and absolutely LOVED it. Huge fan of 40K lore and tactical turn-based games. This game exceeded every expectation.
