I think the most genuinely impressive thing about Joseph Kucan's performance as Kane throughout the entire franchise is that he's not even a full time actor. His main job while working on all the games was actually in being the Casting Director at Westwood. It's just that when they were making Tiberium Dawn, they just had him do some placeholder footage as Kane for reference while they searched for someone else to play the character. At some point down the line though, they just said "Fuck it" and let Kucan play the part full time because no one else could do as good of a job at playing the character. And thus one of the most iconic villain performances in gaming history was born.

The best thing about it is when Tim Curry played the Soviet Premier. CNC 3 can be fun although I agree with people when that say it was good but not that great. Don't get me wrong, CNC 4 was EA's attempt to monopolize the E-Sports and the plot line was weak. Joe Kucan stands out in CNC 4 despite the weak plot.

Someone should create a 4th alternative timeline game that continues after this. It will be interesting to discover the life on earth after the divination. What will the relationship between GDI and NOD be if humans survived and evolved as Kane expected? WIth that super Tiberium bomb, the Scrin is bounded to show up

In principle based on the other events of the series, after the divination missile the Scrin should have showed up in a matter of months or a few short years if Kane himself didn't find a way to contact them himself. Assuming Kane somehow wasn't in the picture at that point, I don't think even GDI and NOD together could have stopped them with so little time to prepare. This ending is the "Earth gets farmed" ending.

As McNeil being reasonable and values every soldier, Slavik is ruthless and cold, and have no toleration of the failure. Pure evil or devotion to the cause? I don't know tbh

Slavik was so badass so sad he's dead killed outscreen in a single sentence in Kane's Wrath...

damn brings back memories, missing westwood

I tell you. Kane is wonderfully charismatic and Joe only got better with it. The Kane's Wrath expansion for C&C3 really drove home his acting chops and talent. The fact he seems to have barely aged since 1995 just makes it all the more impressive.

@Cantrips They weren't misguided at all. If you look at all that Kane did throughout the games he was truly about world peace. He just had his own way of bringing it about. The history after WW2 (Red Alert) changed drastically from ours because of Kane and his influence. The only negative was how both GDI and NOD didn't see how Tiberium would one day destroy the planet as it is revealed in C&C4. Even so, Kane managed to fix that at the end.

What? Red Alert 2 was the shit, I don't know what you're talking about. Just because EA had already acquired Westwood doesn't mean they had full control over the studio at the time. The studio was still allowed creative control as par with their contract to EA. Red Alert 2 is my favorite C&C game man. I remember as a kid I loved the first C&C Red Alert (I was one of the few who played it on the PS1, because we couldn't afford a computer), but when I first bought the second one, that game blew my fucking mind. I was only like fourteen, but regardless I still hold it as my favorite. Also, I prefer the Red Alert timeline over the Tiberium timeline. It is the same universe, yeah, but both games take place on different timelines. Tiberium Sun just made everything weird and cheesy in the Tiberium universe, like a B-list Direct-to-Video science fiction film.

Well, as far as I know they are still in the same multiverse. It is hinted at several times that Yuri was one of Kane's disciples, through which Kane sent him into the Red Alert timeline for some reason that I can't remember ATM. Yuri then used his powers to further his own end. As far as I know, he was pretty much like "fuck Kane. While serve in the Brotherhood when I can lead in the Soviet Union (and eventually the world)?" when he got to the Red Alert timeline.

@Engel990

Some Drunk Asshole That is an interesting theory which I never heard of. Well Kane already is in Red Alert, so he doesn't need to send anyone. Also in Red Alert: the Aftermath there is a mission where you control Yuri and need to rescue him. So both characters are already in the game.

Lol, it basically already is seeing as how all the cutscenes are live-action.

I miss Tiberian Sun so much. All the actors in the FMV cutscenes in this game really gave it their all and it shows. It doesn't feel corny or forced. It really feels like an actual movie. The later games seemed to really miss that and got a lot more corny and the dialogue just felt so forced. The exception being Red Alert 3 but that was supposed to be funny. Joe Kucan deserves an Oscar for his performance as Kane.

15:55 the Nod soldier was a mutant who lost friends in the GDI attack then gave the Defense Initiative pilot a nonverbal expression of regret and vengeance

they mentioned hammerfest, norway! how rare!

Wish we could have seen a continuation of Westwood’s story from this game. I’d have liked to have seen what they had in store when Kane turned on his devoted yet gullible Nod sheep and whether GDI and Nod end up fighting Kane, possibly with or without the Scrin. Although they kinda did that with the ending of Firestorm, where Kane and Cabal are the secret team the whole time which explains they lack of dialogue between each other in TS. I’d like to think Kane has the Chronosphere from Red Alert and has been travelling through history with it, trying to set himself as a God, even though he’s some power hungry guy... possibly the biblical Cain who killed whoever went back to that era with the Chronosphere and stole it from them. I don’t think he’d be an alien. I think he may have tried to fuck with the Scrin who probably saw him as person of interest from afar and wanted his Chronosphere or something, or he stupidly contacted them and they just saw an opportunity to assimilate Earth as their own.

Rule of thumb EA. You cant kill the messiah
