The Insane Story of 'Red Alert' Terribly Summarized.

Red Alert had a pretty bonkers story. And since it's alternate history, and was a major influence on me as a kid, I'm gonna talk about it. Pretty badly.

If you think about it, this game is actually a kind of existentialist horror. The moment time travel gets invented, the war becomes non-linear in time, meaning it can never truly end because any defeat can be undone, and an attack can be staged at any point in time before or after hostilities have "ended" in any given timeline.

As far as the 'people' are concerned, I'm fairly sure they wouldn't feel the change. Some are literally unborn while others are entirely altered by history. What is certain however, is that time will be utterly destroyed once the first jump is made. There will be more time as the future loses its meaning by becoming tangible. So yeah, you're point is made and I'll add that time travel no matter how small will screw us all.

Theres actually a really crazy and cool game called Achron which integrates time travel into a RTS. You can basically go back in time in the game to move units somewhere if you find yourself getting flanked in the present for example. The game updates temporal changes every few minutes, so you have time to counter any past moves made by your opponent. Its a really fun game thats hampered by poor development of every feature outside of the time travel mechanic, and the difficulty of understanding how it works.

Let's all be honest with ourselves. Red alert 1 split into two timelines based on who won. Allies winning leads to the Red Alert series and the Soviets winning leads to the Tiberium series, with Kane making a cameo at the end of the Soviet Campaign. We can assume he brought Tiberium here and he dies or leaves the planet somehow in the Allies campaign.

12:30 Dude, I know where your coming from but let's be honest. C&C 3 went for camp and they owned that niche. It was a really fun game but the story writers had the same goal as the folks who wrote Sharknado. They were not even in the Universe of trying to take themselves seriously, and they pulled it off, really well. That storyline was fun, and they had some decent gags.

I honestly love RA3. Especially because of the campaigns, because it is the script of a c movie in the best possible way. It wants to be ridiculous, and manages it really well while still being somewhat engaging if you give it the chance

The thing is, unlike the missconception of movies like Back to the Future, a theory about time travel is that, if you change something in the past, you create a complete new paralel universe with the consecuences of those changes. Also that implies that it will be another you on that new paralel universe.

@llSuperSnivyll

According to what was going to be the original C&3 (that is, before EA bought Westwood), the Soviet ending is completely non-canon. Both Red Alert 2 and Tiberian Dawn come from an Allied victory in Red Alert (Red Alert 2 is just an alternate timeline, caused by Yuri being flung into the past, not to mention that they are set in the 70s so Tiberium has yet to arrive). And it does make sense, because in the Soviet ending you have Nod controlling all of Europe through the Soviet Union and thus were the #1 world superpower, whereas in Tiberian Dawn they had to purchase most of their equipment.

The Tiberium games were the first C&C games I played and I remember picking up the case and looking at the back and seeing the list of actors they had. Then I went home and saw the actors they had in the previous games like Red Alert and remember thinking “they really are shelling out money for big time actors to do the cheesiest cutscenes for a game?” They ruined celebrities in games for me like Kevin Spacey in COD because C&C will always be the most memorable for how cheesy they were but also how much charm they added to the game.
