​​@@mr.boomguy Yeah. It's possible, maybe even likely, that what clued the Kamiinoans in to the degraded DNA was the symptoms, and that the degraded DNA went unnoticed for quite some time, certainly long enough for things to become unrecoverable, with both multiple batches of clones already reaching the end of production and also the death of Jango Fett.

I think DNA degradation was just a smoke screen. One thing that certainly changed from gen 1 is that jango fett was no longer there. Jango brought far more than his genetic material to the clone army, he brought his entire book of business as well. The entire first generation had most if not all the major trainers hand picked by him. Many mercenaries who were teaching the bog standard troopers probably had a connection to jangos career. His presence alone may have had an effect on the facilities operations alone and when he died the effects were immediately felt. Another major factor may be the wartime training method as well. The first generation were trained in practically every military role and where on standy by, which means that they not only completed their training cycle and stanby but basically doing regular drills for who knows how long when obi wan discovers them. As the war progressed, training is not only progressively condensed to shorten training expenses and time but it may be that the kaminoans were pushing the growth times to their limit to keep up demand. We dont really know all the details yet but I really believe the genetic supply issue is just a cover for all the implementations they have been no doubt discreetly applying through the clone wars.

You're correct about everything except for the Spaarti clones making up the bulk of the Coruscant Guard. In Legends, a majority of the Coruscant Guard was Kaminoan-grown Fett clones, but, towards the end of the war, Spaarti clones were cycled into both the Coruscant Guard and the 501st Legion to both bolster their forces and make sure they were prepared for Order 66 (which, unlike the Kamino clones, the Spaarti clones knew was going to happen).

The prime minister himself admitted the cloners had to stretch the DNA after Jango’s death, plus Boba was missing, and at the time Omega was off limits. So having the DNA stretched over the generations would cause quality degradation which we got to see in a few clones through the war. 99, the heavy trooper during Umbara, Tup with the chip malfunction, maybe Clone Force 99 but they were defiants not defectives, etc.

I just found this channel and I gotta say I’m loving your format of content. And I love the setup. It’s like you’re having a conversation with someone instead of hearing someone yapp for 10 minutes mark. Very informational too.

I think that this is also supported by 99, his mere existence (not why he was kept around, that was most likely Shaak-Ti’s decision) means that a). Defective clones were already a percent chance in the base cloning process(highly likely) or b). Because like you said the DNA sequence was degrading with every generation of clone making aberrations/mutations have higher chances of occurring(this also appears to be likely given the evidence).

This is why (in Legends) the Empire DID maintain quite a robust Cloning program, with distinguished performance and excellence in combat donors selected as new prime donors as "a reward". Spaarti cloned individuals flash programmed as HYPER loyalists to the Empire are regularly seeded throughout the Stormtrooper Corps to strengthen their function as field Commisars ready willing and able to execute traitors unprompted. Having this shadow enforcement structure maintained the fear and paranoia as well as keeping even thinking of departure from the COMPNOR party line to a minimum.

I would like to suggest an alternative idea. What if it's not genetic degradation but the Kaminoan alterations. You notice each generation is less independent and more obsessed with rules. That they increasingly lack a personality. That sounds like something a cloner who only vaguely understand humanity might see as desirable. So my suggestion is that each generation of clone troopers is further altered in an iterative way to increase the traits that the Kaminoan's desire. But due to them not really understanding humans or warfare select and enhance the wrong traits.

That would even solve the plot hole of the dialogue between Shaak ti and lama su, which always felt like it disregarded the timeline of all the adult clones having to have been born years prior to Jangos death

You know, it's surprising.They didn't create a handful of unaltered clones at the beginning to use as fall back redundant templates. It's also surprising that they did not begin to scale up production. Not in the sheer numbers being output. But in the sheer number being put into the vets. Slow down the growth acceleration with batch put in. Until they have a long steady line of long lasting high quality clones. Yes they needed to scale down production. But all they had to do is just reduce the number of clones.They were making with each batch for the number of batches at a time. Any excess clones could simply be put into cryo stasis. Until they were needed.

One thing i would have emphasized more were the levels of independence of each generation. Gen 1's and 2's like Rex, Cody, Fives, and Echo all were nominally independent and were able to think outside the box, while 3's and 4's didn't think for themselves as much and would stick to a rigid command structure. Obviously there were outliers like Tup but they were more rare and they weren't around the Jedi as long who instilled independence in them. That's why the Empire failed against the Rebellion, the Empire relied on troopers who weren't able to think for themselves while the Rebels allowed their units to be more independent. The same thing happened in World War 2, the US Army then and now does not always rely on a rigid command structure, with units being able to take charge and make their own decisions in battle if they think it will turn the tide. Where as the Germans and Soviets stuck to a top down structure where it lead to units not taking the initiative, losing them battles.

I love the video. You brought up a lot of great points and things that I had not considered or noticed. I would, however, like to pose a thought about Echo. As you said, Echo was a second-generation Clone obsessed with orders and repeated them often, hence earning himself the name Echo. I would like to point out that, unlike Dogma, Echo still retained independent thought after being held prisoner by the Techno Union and having his inhibitor chip basically rendered useless as it wiped out all of his pre-conditioned programming regarding his behavior. At this point, there is a drastic shift in Echo's character as, from that moment on, he goes from repeating orders to giving them. During the Bad Batch Echo sort of acts as an opposing force to Hunter. He can not just go his own way, he cares about his brothers. I feel like, in Echo's case, his inhibitor chip was just more effective. He has such a drastic jump from after he is blown up and joining the bad batch. Echo has his flaws for sure, just like Fives he's emotional, he spends most of the TBB grumpy and complaining which is funny to me. Just my thoughts on Echo

It’s really interesting that they presented all this for us to see, but hasn’t really been discussed until now. I didn’t see all of the clone wars and remember only a few episodes and didn’t realise the significance of seeing the squad being trained and the implications. Did the Empire realise this and looked for alternatives…as robots weren’t the key. Could you do an in depth on stormtroopers? The uniform dehumanises them, no names only numbers..brainwashing?

remember guys he didn't kill yourself

In my opinion the behavioral changes in the later batches don’t so much indicate genetic degradation, instead it’s more consistent with *further accelerated aging. The younger the clones were, when they reached physical maturity *[and thus were somewhat set in their ways], the more immature they were mentally, second batch emotional like teenagers, third batch overly trusting but able to question their ‚parents‘, fourth batch exhibiting simplified thought processes like only thinking in stereotypes. I have no other basis for this assumption apart from the behavioral patterns exhibited.

I'm going to disagree with you about the rude clones from the first BB episodes; I tend to look at the newly uncivil attitude many of them took as a coping mechanism. Many of them had just come back from Order 66, where they had auto-pilot Vegeta-spammed their generals with small arms and other fire without let or mercy, and few if any knew about the chips. At this point, they had just done something terrible and enacted punishment for a crime they could not be sure their Jedi had ever known of or engaged in. Since, so far as they knew, they who often wondered about orders ruthlessly followed this newest one and then basically woke up with the world they knew shattered and their place in it badly in question - with the answer turning darker with each day. One way people have when confronted with this is to question everything as Cody apparently did. Another easier way is to double down - not merely the possibly implanted 'Good Soldiers' mantra - but a far worse one: "Q: What kind of people do horrible things? A: Horrible people." To their minds, they were now these horrible people, and maybe they had been all along. So they go from admiring the Batch to pushing them aside and dismissing them, in part because they didn't seem to be going through what they were. However, I will concede that maybe the lower quality of the materials for these later clones made them more vulnerable to this doubling down, which in the Real World we have seen explode in politicians, comic book creators, and others.

I get the clones have accelerated ageing but if jango died 3 years before the end of the war, the regs in the bad batch shouldn't have been effected? They'd already be 6 (12 in clones years) by the time jango died. I think the kaminoans were more focused on much much later generations of clones. As war profiteers they'd be hopeful it would last at least until 13bby.

Funny you should mention Boeing, prior to them merging with McDonald Douglas, they were one of the best companies and manufacturers out there. I remember listening to an interview about a guy who wrote about the Boeing whistleblowers before all this stuff started happening. Basically when we got rid of regulations that prevented large mergers like between Boeing and McDonald. Douglas, it allowed these major companies to control huge parts of the market. And the McDonald Douglas executives used their profit-driven model to muscle out a lot of the old Boeing executives that actually cared about the product they were producing, and so the old s***** McDonald Douglas way of doing things. Just got rebranded as the Boeing way of doing things. This is why it's important to yes, have a market, but also in certain sectors that market needs to either not exist (as in like the military, there shouldn't be multiple militaries for a country to hire, there should only be one military and its organized by the government and controlled by the government, preferably a democratically elected government) or the market should be heavily regulated to prevent such actions and mergers that we see with the Boeing/McDonald Douglas situation.

Yup they got Americans all up in arms about identity politics when the corporations have literally destroyed every small business in this country 🤦‍♂️, killed the middle class completely.

Kamino reminds me of Spain during WW1. A lot of countries bought guns from Spain like Ruby pistol (basically bootleg Browning 1903) that it created a boom in Spain. However when WW1 ended the demand just gone and the industry died

Because they realize there lives were theirs and not to be wasted

Hey GenTech, I only got audio in my left ear. Is this just a me issue or exporting issue?

In an Alien Prometheus easter egg, Weyland's diary entry talks about his difference in philosophy with Tyrell from Blade Runner. Tyrell did the Replicants that finally turned on him, while Weyland did the androids seen in Aliens.

6:39 - The degradation of the material may also be influenced by the changes needed to modify the aging process so that they grow faster, or the personality modifications to make them more docile, cooperative, etc. - Original material aside, making alterations would further increase any flaws, possibly exponentially.

My gosh the outside view of your house is so beautiful 😩

Your comparison of Clone Generations reminds me of the Spartan generations from Halo. There is an exception with the Spartan I's since they are a prototype to the Spartan II's. But the general decline is noticeable.

surprised they werent able to get Jangos corpse back in some way and just like, keep the head or body parts in a jar to preserve it and its genetic code. Theyd go into some room with like, body parts of Jango that theyd be sampling from.

I thought Jango not training or overseeing training of the clones caused the problems.

Its like generation loss except for clones

Kamino should really hit up the Tleilaxu for the secrets of the axolotl tanks

I am finding these “travel videos” fascinating

I just suddenly realized this! If the Kaminoans have the Prime Minister, do they have Royal Family? If so, why we never see them?

Could be that the DNA from Jango is deteriorating.

It's kinda like Generation Loss in VHSes

Man rented a room on coruscant

with Jango Fett dead, and Kamino having to clone succsessive generations of clones, without his genetic material id view it like inbreeding, youre making copies of copies

You can also see the effects of the DNA degredation with the newer generation of clones in the looks of the cadets, who in the early seasons of the clone wars looked nearly identical. But in season 3 of the bad batch the cadets we meet look completly different to Jango and the other clones.

0:20 yoooo its my country prime minister😂😂😂AKA old prime minister😮😮😮😂😂

Kind of off topic, but it’s kind of freaking me out how much Dogma looks like Tech in the thumbnail (Yes I know they’re literally clones, but Tech has a very unique look for a clone)

Yea I blame it on the wide angle perspective of the shot it definitely stretches his head. That’s a screenshot from the execution scene in umbara

I always thought Halle Burtoni's name was perfect. The Fett DNA degrading, or exhibiting itself further, with regards to the exhibition of emotion and free-thinking. Some would say the Jedi contact influenced their moral code, but also like you say, even prior to graduation and assignment, they were showing more impulsive, aggressive tendencies. I don't know if we've seen enough of Jango to say he's got "aggressive tendencies," per se, but you make a good point about what is "optimal" from the Prime Minister's perspective. It doesn't mean "the same as Jango Fett" necessarily, just that the degradation of the DNA makes it harder for them to control what comes out.

That screen is HUGE.

Gen 3+: not capable enough of independent thought, lack critical thinking and intelligence; glorified droids made only to follow Gen 2: leadership potential but too independent to the point of being at risk of irrational behavior Gen 1: Independent but rational, capable of gaining wisdom from experience; the perfect blend to create strong leaders

After watching this video I can't help but wonder, why didn't the Kaminoans ever consider just getting a completely new donor for clones? There are plenty of other skilled bounty hunters in the galaxy. Once the Fett DNA was degraded, why not start making an army of Cad Banes or Fennec Shands?

I wonder why they’d hunt only Omega down for the purpose of achieving “close to Jango” pure DNA and not also Boba Fett. And aside from possibly succeeding at gaining proper DNA to Clone more Clones, the issue I see is proper training too. I know many of the first generation Clones were trained by Jango and other Mandalorians. At the time of the Empire, Jango and many Generation one Clones are long gone and idk about the initial Mandalorian trainers but the issue of proper and effective training is a huge question that’s never discussed

A moment of silence for 99.

The Kaminoans saw the Clone Force 99 as a failure purely because they were unique. The Kaminoans seem to value as perfect of replication as possible. Also, remember that the initial clones were modified from the original donor to bring out certain things. It might be the implementation of these modifications that led to the DNA instability. Perhaps the DNA they have continued to drift from baseline (maybe they need the DNA material to be kept "alive" for it to be useful in cloning). This would be seen as a failure to the Kaminoans, and could make your average late model clone generally not as top shape as your initial models which were modified to be as tip top as possible. Embracing this drift created Clone Force 99. Rejecting it created clones who had to be increasingly artificially modified to bring them as close to replication spec as possible.

This is a theory of mine, but I also think they probably force the clones to age even quicker based on demand… for example, I’m pretty sure the bad batch seem to age 3 times as fast given how omega remembered when they were babies and that she’s about the same age as Rex. It only makes sense because they need millions of soldiers and they had lack of time where generation one of clones had way more time to process…

The Boeing comment is spot on.

Did you take into account the fact that their training was being rushed and that the second gen clones were being rushed into service before actually finishing their training.

That reminds me what happened to lama su after the bad batch season? I thought he was kept at tantis

Well after lama su helped get na la se to cooperate he was to be given his freedom per the deal with hemlock. How that turned out maybe we find out.

how many clone generations were there?

200,000, with 1,000,000 more well on the way

from the thumbnails i will theorize that: It's because Hairs are what's making them less effective.

Can you do a video on the clone that betrayed his brothers, I forget the episode but it was when cpt Rex and I believe commander Cody were interrogating the other clones for alibis. That clone knew the truth about their fate, maybe not to the extent of order 66 but he did possess something I’ve never seen in any other clone

Slick on Cristophsis

In the EU, worse just meant worse. The 1st Generation clones took heavy losses in the first year of the war because Palpatine, Dooku and the CIS Council had clearly made a significant underestimation of the CIS' own capabilities despite having already made significant limitations prior to the war beginning. Even in TCW/Disney Canon, Tom Kane mentioned that younger troopers were being called up to the front earlier than expected. The Republic military was a complete mess in the first year, and it really is only after all of the Republic reserve troops are deployed following the Battle of Coruscant that the Republic is able to completely overpower the CIS.

I'm not sure it was the lack of fresh samples. I think it was corporate profit taking and cost cutting.

Wait why didn't they perfectly clone the DNA they already had? Is that what they mean by stretching? Why would that cause it to degrade?

I assume it also has to do with training
