I dunno what's so confusing. He uses his gun in the end, at 1:58 he grab it. The bullet is for Aucturus Mengsk but not for his son, so he keep it. Or did i missunterstand something?

yep you go to char a planet were mengsk would never be with a special saved up bullet for him.
He want to revenge kerrigan face to face and maybe he symbolically has only one bullet in his handgun, but i don't think he would ever care that it has to be a special saved up bullet.

Anyway if you wanna go that far and if you take the hos spoilers into consideration

+ Show Spoiler +
Since kerrigan gets saved via this bullet she becomes the bullet and kills mengsk later, so the bullet still got him in the end. Uh oh so much depth i could ...


i just don't like the us story writers at the moment, they are so obsessed about making a confusing script to force people to view every episode.

I love eastereggs in games, like good ol dogmeat etc. Also sudden twists are pretty nice.
What i hate is when they change the story afterwards, warcraft 3 had a lil bit of it in it and wow was urg pain ^^.

regarding sc2 till now characters acted normal for me. And got alot of fan service which made a fangirl heart beat with passion. Spacemarines fighting in a battlecruiser *-*. Evac mission !!! ... DOGMEAT !!! (i soo hate to see him die in fallout >.< )

After WoL still hate mengsk and still think Jim is a total bad ass, so everything is fine.

PS: all the discussion about sc2 made me realize how many scifi serie are about some old race wanting to whipe out the new races every now and then or that 2 old races fight each other to the death and are both remains of an even older race x3.

Freespace, Master of orion, galactic civilisation, mass effect, babylon 5 etc etc ^^... probably easier to point out the stuff without this evil prophecy stuff hehe.

mmmm ble now i want to play a freespace 3 ^^; love the story hehe

.... It wasnt a bomb. The suit just had the ability to shut down his vital organs.

YES. because hes going to go to some planet JUST to leave the pistol behind. That makes sense huh? Hard to believe but even if you saved up a bullet for someone you WILL use it if you really need it.

He doesn't care because after saving the world from zerg he won't be bothered by mengsk anymore

I've got a question I think is somewhat relevant to the whole 'infested Tychus' thing. Kerrigan is redeemed, why would she infest Tychus? That seems a bit disrespectful.

EDIT: I think he saved a bullet for Mengsk. Those massive marine rifles take so many shots to kill even simple Zerglings, let alone Protoss units, so it seems to me that the pistol is specifically there to kill other humans.

Was there some kind of hint in the storyline that you'd better always have a bullet for yourself when overrun by zerg?

He saved the bullet for mensk. But uses it to kill Tychus. I thought it was to symbolise Raynor's need of revenge for Mensk, but Kerrigan is more important than his revenge so in the end he uses it to protect Kerrigan and kill Tychus. (In SC1, Raynor's revenge started when Mensk left Kerrigan on that planet when it was overrun by the Zerg. Then later he made another vow for revenge to the queen of blades when she killed his Protoss buddy. Now with Kerrigan back as a human being, all has come full cricle for Raynor)

I thought that was the smartest thing about the entire plot.....but even then...it does not fit.

For one, why would Tychus listen to Mensk. Raynor has been living as a fugitive since BW and he hasn't been doing that bad. In the beginning of the game Tychus is introduced as some hard case criminal mercenary, why will he have problems living as a fugitive.....in space.

And it's just poor logic to let someone out of jail, and then say that if he'd kill the Zerg queen of blades (who at that time still has a powerlevel over 9000) he's.....free. Seriously....what !?

And in the long time there was between finding out about tychus' true intentions to the point where he's reaching the trigger, couldn;t the other marines that you seen earlier in the cinematic do something ? (It takes a minute, maybe 2 before Tychus moves to kill lots of time to do something)

They should have developped the Tychus arc more. Give him some implanted ghost mind control type thing that made him do what he did. Or have a cinematic where there are already hints that Tychus' plans aren't very good for Raynor.

Uh anyways, it's already established that the writing and plot in SC2 is pretty bad.

x3, actually. Killed as a necromancer by Arthas, killed by WoW players in Naxxramas, then killed by WoW players again in Naxxramas 2.0.

I can't remember if Kerrigan left any of the Cerebrates alive, but if she did they'd become the unofficial heads of the Swarm. If none of them remain then either the queens take over(if multiplayer is any indicator), or every zerg in the sector runs around like a headless chicken until someone or something takes over.

lol, raynor shot his own best friend, the friend who saved his ass while he rotted away in prison, while sparing the girl who probably destroyed trillions of lives.

Whoah, same plot device as in Wrath of the Lich King. Arthas becomes leader of the undead (zerg), and it's intimated that the only thing keeping the swarm from mindlessly ravaging the entire world is the bit of Arthas' humanity that is still left over.

Same story with Kerrigan? Maybe the reason the zerg have been so quiet is that her humanity has held them back somewhat.

If so, her de-infestation doesn't speak well for anyone else, but HoS is suddenly more interesting.

WoW players can't kill anything right, it's always just a setback for the guy they're fighting. That way they can get better gear in the future

Wait, since it was for Mengsk, perhaps Tychus didn't die but Raynor magically shot some part of the suit that set Tychus free. Whoa. So maybe it did end up being used on Mengsk after all =O

(probably not true but just saying haha)


I wish this where true, killing off the most bad ass character that Blizzard ever designed made me sad
