Are Brutes related to humans?

It would make more sense, I mean its a huge coincidence that evolution on a completely separate planet would give rise to apes like it did on Earth. Could the precursors have tampered with the evolution? Its also strange how all the planets have the same kind of plants.

  • Yes. It explains why they pull down/up their non-existent pants [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2600oOJqcqg]when taking a piss[/url]. It explains why they eat their non-existent food while maintaining [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQmRqr4jEj4#t=2m9s]good table manners[/url]. It explains why [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YweIlPNcCD4#t=33s]they beat their chests like a gorilla[/url]. It explains why they use their fists instead of the bladed edge of their weapons. It explains why they have a profound love of powerful human weapons. And it explains why they make orgasm noises when you touch them.

But with some variations due to having to evolve to the habitat.[/quote]Except you know... Plants in South America and China are on the same planet. Continental drift can apply in this case and they share the same atmosphere basically. Plants on Doisac cannot have continental drift applied to them because the two planets don't share continents. Also, the plants had to grow under 2G conditions which would drastically change they way they grow.[/quote] And what little of Doisac we saw can be summed up as "Do we want to develop a number of strange, new plants for a scene that is not very long at all... or just make some typical looking ones?" Cause we've only seen Doisac in Origins right? Same reason for say, ME or star wars/star trek to have planets covered in earth-looking trees.[/quote]That's the REAL reason why the plants look similar. The fellow I quoted said the reason was the same as the reason why some plants in South America and China are similar. That's not the reason why the plants are similar. The reason is the one you posted.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gamma617g Wow. Didn't think people in this thread would be that stupid. Brutes are decidedly NOT apes as something that evolved on a planet in an isolated star system. In fact, Brutes would have no analog at all in Earth fauna. That's how aliens work guys.[/quote] You are the one that is rather ignorant. I clearly said that it wouldn't be impossible for them to be a type of human with the recent Primordium knowledge.

  • They are a large bipedial 'ape like' species. it doesn't mean that they are directly related to apes. But it doesn't mean that they are not related to humans. Maybe a guy with goliath syndrome or whatever f***ed a monkey? and the 'creators' decided to go through with it. And the reason the plants look so similar is the same reason plants in china look simmilar to the plants in south america. But with some variations due to having to evolve to the habitat.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] CoolCJ24 Could have had a common ancestor I guess (by that, I mean the Precursors created both from a common ancestor). Unlikely but not impossible. I mean, humans share a lot of DNA (upwards of 99% I think) with silver-back gorillas and at first glance we are fairly different.[/quote]Except Brutes aren't ALL ape like. They share features with Rhinos and Bears.
