Just Before the End	comment	It's probably sometime between Next Sunday A.D. and 20 Minutes into the Future, but it could also be another planet in a distant galaxy in an inverted universe. All that really matters is that the world, or civilization anyway, is ending... any day now. The zombie army is making its way across the continent... oh so slowly. The worldwide economic crash is in its 10-year stretch. The global powers are arming for all-out war, The Virus's death toll is rising, and the asteroid named Malthus Prime is on its way to end the human race... in exactly X.5 months, Y days and Z hours. The world you're in probably resembles a Crapsack World verging on a Scavenger World. The trains are still running, though probably not on time. Everywhere it's ominously hinted that however bad the present is, the future will only get worse, and by the end, or at least by the next sequel, it has, and we get to see what things are like After the End. Just Before the End is usually a bleak dystopia (or alternatively, a facsimile of the modern era) that is coming apart at the seams. Expect to see people Dying Like Animals. Graffiti and abandoned cars are usually a given. The Depopulation Bomb may have already dropped, leaving a Crapsack World or worse, but if it hasn't dropped yet, it's on its way... oh yeah, it's coming. Better get your $99 bottled water and your car batteries while they last, folks! Right here, at Joe's Apocalyptic Emporium! Alternatively, you might want to invest in a suicide kit: Thank God for State-Sponsored Euthanasia! As many of the examples show, Just Before The End can either take place just before the impact of a Depopulation Bomb or after its impact, provided the effects of said Depopulation Bomb are not immediate: for example, if an asteroid crashed ten years ago but was only large enough to destroy a few cities at most, but it brought with it a deadly contagion which has reduced the world's population drastically in those ten years to the point that the contagion is daily news and everyone's expecting to die, then you've also got Just Before The End set in a Crapsack World. Also known in apocalyptic literature as the Dying Earth subgenre. You can expect anyone previously chanting that The End Is Nigh to gloat about being right... but not for very long. Compare The Cretaceous Is Always Doomed, this trope's Time Travel counterpart. Compare Signs of the End Times. Not to Be Confused with DÃ©nouement or Before the Dark Times.

Just Before the End / int_1365ffcf	comment	Spin starts with Earth becoming covered by a bubble that blocks all light, except for the Sun. It's later discovered that time inside the bubble passes much slower than outside. For every second inside, roughly 3 years pass outside. The people quickly realize that this means that, in 50 years' time, billions of years will pass in the universe, and the Sun will expand to consume the Earth. Amazingly, the fact that nobody can really see the Sun expand (except for NASA, who keep sending probes outside the bubble) means that most people just get on with their lives, although many turn to religion to find comfort.

Just Before the End / int_17bfcf60	comment	The original Homeworld game starts off like this as well, but it's supposed to be a twist-beginning. The tutorial level is the Mothership being launched and the player getting used to the controls before it initiates its first hyperdrive test. Cue the success of the test, a return to Kharak...and the sight of the entire planet being engulfed in a firestorm, leaving the Mothership, her crew, and 600,000 Kharaki refugees that had been loaded into cryotrays before the test. And that last bit is only if you manage to save all six in the return mission.

Just Before the End / int_1f8ca4ba	comment	Lord Of The World starts off with the world under control of two Marxist empires (which, while oppressive, have conditioned the public to not notice how badly they've stamped goodness and decency out of the world) and one pagan theocracy, which looks certain to invade the other two states in a brutal war that will kill millions and probably result in the whole human race plunging back into the Dark Ages. As such, the viewpoint characters are all worried about the devastation that seems almost certain to start by the end of the year. Then an American diplomat negotiates a nonviolent solution... only for things to get even worse, since the diplomat is actually The Antichrist, and the peace settlement was just so that the people of the world declare him world emperor in gratitude for saving their lives. Then he starts scapegoating and persecuting Christians, who had already been reduced to a tiny distrusted minority decades earlier, blaming them for all human evil (and specifically, accusing them of letting the world get to such a state to begin with by encouraging superstition over reason). From this point, the trope is in even greater effect, as the Church has to revert to how it was organized in the catacombs days just to survive, which doesn't even work since the Antichrist finds their hiding place and bombs it to bits. Then Jesus shows up. The end.

Just Before the End / int_291e9857	comment	Dark Souls: If it isn't After the End, it's this. The First Flame is dying, and when it goes out, nobody knows exactly what will happen. The world suffers through long, cold nights. All throughout the world, humans are being turned into mindless undead called Hollows, and many kingdoms (including Lordran, the setting for the game) have either collapsed or are holding on by a thread. And that's before we get into the monsters, demons, and other nasties roaming the Earth. Dark Souls III is even worse. The First Flame is so worn out it can barely even be linked, and the people summoned to restore it have gone rogue, either seeking to bring about the end or consumed by their own demons. As time goes on, even the Sun is eclipsed, leaving the Darksign hanging in the sky. The player's decisions alone will determine whether to delay the end slightly, seek to preserve hope for a new iteration of the cycle after the Age of Dark, or snuff out the world and rule over the dead as the Lord of Hollows. The Ringed City DLC for Dark Souls III takes this to its logical conclusion, apparently taking place mere minutes before the end of fire. As the player is battling the final boss, the sun is dimming, and it's not coming back.

It even happens TWICE in the original campaign, although only the second one is stopped before it goes too far. Interestingly, the second game, which takes place centuries later, features one of the races that caused one of the catastrophies as a playable race... albeit having turned against the faction responsible for the event in the interim.

Just Before the End / int_2ae406c1	comment	The colony mission to the eponymous star system in Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri is sent exactly because even though there's enough goodwill to build and man the ship, this is quite possibly the last opportunity for international cooperation; people are already aware things aren't going to end well, and the environment is coming apart at the seams. Also, by communicating with Planet, you eventually find out that the next great extinction cycle that periodically sweeps clean all the life on the world is about to come. It is possible to avoid it, however, and in fact end the cycle permanently, creating a paradise world. The intro to Alpha Centauri shows large flashes visible on the surface of Earth, implying a nuclear exchange of some kind. Confirmed in the novels that flash wars were breaking out across the planet with liberal use of high-yield explosive devices. Mentions that Earth actually crossed into After the End territory are the complete failure to communicate with it over the following centuries, and the hypothesis raised in one of the epilogues that all Earth humans died out.

Just Before the End / int_2ce94f43	comment	In Crossed, several Badlands story arcs usually depict the first days of the Crossed outbreak and what happens to the protagonists as the world falls apart around them. One such arc, which is untitled, is set in the early days of the Hate Plague Crossed apocalypse, the Crossed infection has already killed billions but has yet to completely destroy every trace of civilization. There are some organized evacuation efforts by both the military and private citizens. The water is still running in some places (as shown by how a man hiding in the sewers of Catalina is using a hose for drinking water). There are still a few big military bases coordinating with each other. The military is even managing to keep large sections of San Diego safe as everywhere else burns. However, it is made extremely clear that the Crossed are days away from overrunning the defenders of San Diego and all they can do is pack people onto evacuation ships (which are in short supply) while still trying to work out if there's anywhere they can find safe refuge. Another Badlands arc, Thin Red Line, is set right at the very beginning of the outbreak and shows political upheaval, among other things, as countries start to fall apart from both inside and outside thanks to infected jet pilots bombing them. Taking place in England, the protagonists attempt to solve the crisis and avoid the nuclear war from completely wiping everything out, all while trying to study the Patient Zero and learn about the true nature of the plague. While Shrink is set several weeks After the End, it takes place in an isolated town where the few residents who haven't fled to the hills are stable enough to carry on normally and try to accomplish something as they wait for a horde of monsters to inevitably follow the roads to the town and rape or torture everyone to death.

As the grandfather (a Yook) recounts the conflict, we ultimately discover that all the other Yooks have been sent into bomb shelters in preparation for the detonation of the "Bitsy Big-Boy Boomeroo", which Grandpa is going to drop on the Zooks. At the end of the book, Grandpa discovers that Van Itch, his Zook counterpart, has also been sent to the wall with a Bitsy Big-Boy Boomeroo of his own. The story culminates with a Bolivian Army Ending as Grandpa and Van Itch face each other in a Mexican Standoff atop the wall, afraid to drop the bomb and with no idea who will make the first move.

The rainforest is being restored, farms are producing food, and the atmosphere of hope is in the air. Later, it's revealed that it's all propaganda. The efforts are failing, the rainforest is still dying off, and all available farmland is being used but the governments are already dipping into the reserves. To top it off, global cooling has been detected, which will result in a new Ice Age. Humans will survive, and nature will recover, but attempts to rebuild civilization will fail, as all easily reachable resources necessary for progress have already been mined out. Long story short, humanity is destined to be thrown back to the Stone Age and stay there. Facing these prospects, the protagonists decide that Time Travel may be the only solution. However, the insist on world-wide referendum in an aversion of The Time Traveller's Dilemma (scientists have determined that as soon as the time travelers go into the past, the current timeline will be replaced with everyone in it never having existed). Worse, with their past-viewing machine, they determine that theirs is not the original timeline. Apparently, an ever-worse history led to the same bleak future and required temporal intervention, resulting in the current state of the world. According to the epilogue, this change appears to have succeeded in averting the disaster.

The West Coast (well, the part that isn't a four-thousand-mile-long, one-mile-deep refugee camp) is run by the power company. The East Coast is an enourmous urban sprawl run by street gangs. The bit in between is run by Kudzu-4. The currency is the Quebuck, a new drug-resistant disease breaks out every 24 hours on average, and the vestigal remains of the North American government has been reduced to sporadically napalming the whole mess just to keep things down — and that's just the how bad things are at the start. The first book could be described as just before the end, the second one as the beginning of the end, and the third book as the end well into the process of happening.

As it falls, The Empire begins invading Eorzea and powerful monsters show up everywhere, including within cities. Eventually, the red moon does fall and breaks open, revealing the really pissed off primal, Bahamut, The dragon god wastes no time in scorching the land as he annihilates everything in his wake. Only a Heroic Sacrifice by Louisoix stops him and prevents further damage to the land. A Realm Reborn takes place 5 years after the Calamity and while most of the landscape is irreversibly changed, everyone has recovered. The events before the Calamity and during said Calamity occurred during 1.0 before and after the servers were shut down to remake the game. The trailer for the Shadowbringers expansion shows a group of rich and fat Miqo'te lounging around eating and drinking while Thancred is in a room underneath them fighting a monster. The develops pointed out that The First world is about to be consumed by an all destroying force of light, so the rich are partying it up while they still can. It is also revealed in Shadowbringers that the Source may be on its way to the end as well: in the future, the combination of an influx of light aether from the destruction of the First, combined with The Empire using a deadly chemical weapon, would cause an apocalypse that would make Bahamut's awakening seem like a rainy day in comparison. The heroes' efforts to stop the destruction of the First would also mean stopping this doomsday scenario. Also in Shadowbringers, the final act of the 5.0 story shows the Scions traversing the ruins of the forgotten Amaurot civilization, of which the Ascians are the remnants. Emet-Selch recreates the place as it was just before calamity struck, and the final dungeon has you witnessing the apocalypse as it unfolded long ago.

An Alternate Timeline shows us what Earth would be like if it were never destroyed by meteors. Instead, it's flooded and all humans die off anyways thanks to Her Imperious Condescension's attempts to make Earth like her homeworld.

Just Before the End / int_53a0bd32	comment	The Twilight Zone (1959): "Third from the Sun" takes place just before a nuclear war. A scientist and a test pilot steal an experimental spacecraft an use it to get themselves and their families off the doomed planet. The episode ends with them escaping and heading to their destination, a planet called Earth. "The Midnight Sun" is the story of a young woman and her elderly neighbor trying to survive in their apartment building as the Earth slowly drifts closer to the Sun, causing extreme climate change. She has to deal with day-to-day life in the increasingly deserted city, extreme thirst and heat, and crazed, murderous people just desperate to survive. It's actually just a fever-dream. In the real world, the Earth is slowly drifting away from the Sun, causing it to grow colder and darker...

Just Before the End / int_53a0bd8b	comment	The Twilight Zone (1985): "A Little Peace and Quiet" has a harried housewife, Penny, using a special amulet to freeze time literally "just before the end." A nuclear war had broken out between the United States and the Soviet Union, with missiles headed toward southern California. In the minute (or so) before "the end", panic is heard in the distance outside Penny's house and a radio announcer is losing his attempts to keep calm as he reads news bulletins about the air strikes. Penny's husband is trying to figure out how to gather their children and go to a shelter... but there's no time, as their youngest son comes into the room crying, and then an explosion is heard in the distance. Penny screams out the words "SHUT UP!" — freezing time in the split second before their home was (presumably) burned to a crisp. Outside, time is frozen as people are trying to flee, and one man is looking upward at the sky; another is on the ground shielding himself. She looks up to the sky... to see a nuclear warhead just seconds from impact and a bright orange fireball in the distance of another bomb that has gone off.

"The Dying Light" is set in the last days of the Western Roman Empire, as the final remnants of its civilization finish crumbling away into a mass of petty barbarian kingdoms. The epilogue is set some years after a volcanic eruption causes the collapse of human civilization, when only a few last pockets of civilized humans are hanging on in a world doomed to go over to animals, feral humans and overgrown ruins. "A Far Distant Futurity" is set 500 million years into the future, when the continents of Earth have merged into a hot, flat, dry supercontinent that resembles the surface of Mars, and life is on the decline.

A promotional video series for Last Light takes place right when the bomb sirens go off, giving residents less than 20 minutes to make it to the metro system. Within Last Light, Artyom witnesses a hallucination of an international flight as it is landing in Moscow when the bombs hit, with the electromagnetic pulse taking out the plane's control system, causing it to veer uncontrollably towards a Metro entrance at over 500kph while glass shrapnel from skyscrapers shattered in the pressure wave slams into the cockpit. Before the plane crashes the pilots and passengers witness Moscow burning in nuclear fire.

In particular, the Anchorage simulation in Fallout 3 and Mr. House of Fallout: New Vegas (and Big MT in the DLC expansion) are relics from this time. The prologue and opening scene of Fallout 4 takes place during the morning of October 23, 2077 — the morning the bombs fell.

Just Before the End / int_7832b74c	comment	In Steven Universe, it's gradually revealed that Homeworld, the home of the Gem species, is in this state as a dying colonial empire. Homeworld is currently in "Era Two," and the problems are so numerous that the planet itself is cracking in half. Its leadership, the Great Diamond Authority, is in shambles: leader White Diamond is categorically denying that anything is wrong and assimilating anyone who dares to disagree with her Fantastic Caste System; Blue Diamond is so paralyzed with grief for the loss of her fellow Diamond Pink (and unable to express that grief because of White's rules) that she's completely unable to function; and Yellow Diamond, the only one who's relatively well-adjusted, is taking out her own grief over the loss of Pink by becoming increasingly militaristic and so overly focused on getting revenge on Earth, where Pink died, that her armies are suffering. The individual citizens of Homeworld are bearing the brunt of their leaders' deteroriating mental states, and almost everyone seems to be unhappy (though they aren't allowed to say so). Peridot, who pulls a Heelâ€“Face Turn, reveals that Homeworld's resources are rapidly depleting, to the point where newly-created Gems are being given technological enhancements to make up for the loss of their natural special powers. It's then defied when Steven successfully ushers in a new beginning—Era Three—that moves Homeworld, the Diamonds, and all Gems to a decolonized, healthy, peaceful state.

In the Resist ending, this escalates into a full-on Apocalypse How as the nukes starts falling in Montana.

The planed is dying, the vast desert is expanding north and south every year, reclaiming livable land. The Primary Anomaly (the Khar-Toba and the hyperspace core within) may be the Kharakians' only chance of survival (even if it brings about the wrath of the Taiidani). The original Homeworld game starts off like this as well, but it's supposed to be a twist-beginning. The tutorial level is the Mothership being launched and the player getting used to the controls before it initiates its first hyperdrive test. Cue the success of the test, a return to Kharak...and the sight of the entire planet being engulfed in a firestorm, leaving the Mothership, her crew, and 600,000 Kharaki refugees that had been loaded into cryotrays before the test. And that last bit is only if you manage to save all six in the return mission.

Just Before the End / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls Morrowind takes place just before the end of the reign of the Tribunal and really, the Dunmer way of life for the past 4000 years. With regard to the effects of the Tribunal dying off and the effect it would have on the Ministry of Truth, between Oblivion and Skyrim the magic holding the Ministry aloft fails and Vvardenfell is all but wiped off the map. A political version of this occurs in Oblivion. It's hinted at the end of the game that the loss of the Septim dynasty is going to seriously alter the geopolitical state of the world, because the Empire won't have a leader. As revealed in Skyrim, the hints were correct. This had a vague hint as early as Morrowind with Wulf, an Aspect of Tiber Septim, about how the Empire seems to be on it's last legs and says "The Emperor is getting old. Don't know how much longer he'll hang on. So is the whole Empire, for that matter. Getting old, that is. The Emperor and the legions have held the Empire together for hundreds of years. It's been a good thing, by and large. But maybe it's time for a change. Time for something young and new. What? No idea. Because I'm old. Old dog doesn't get new ideas. But maybe young folks like you should try some new ideas. I don't know. Could be messy. But change is never pretty." hearing this from Wulf makes it pretty clear that nothing would be the same after Oblivion. According to some hints throughout the franchise, as well as supplemental materials, this may be happening to Mundus (i.e. the world) itself. The world's continued existence is implied to be anchored by a series of towers... and the last three games of the series have seen several of these towers fall as a direct or indirect result of game events. And it's quite possible that the Nazi-esque Thalmor are deliberately seeking to destroy the remaining towers- for mer, mortal life is a prison for their immortal souls, and many believe ending the world would free them.

Over the course of its run, we see how a combination of hubris, bad decisions, and conspiracy all come to a head. The result is the release of the Betrayer Gods from their extraplanar prison and the beginning of a 150-year war that would end with two-thirds of all life on Exandria dead, the landscape permanently altered, and the gods locking themselves away from the mortal plane forever. The player characters themselves end up inadvertantly helping to kickstart the Calamity due to these character flaws. All but one of them dies in the Calamity as a result, but they also end up giving it their all to prevent it from being even worse than it could have been. The one player who survives even manages to find a way to escort his family to some semblance of safety, so it gives a "Ray of Hope" Ending that while things really are bad, it could have been even worse.

Unfortunately, there is no way to cure the Kryptonite poisoning or escape the space city, so all they can do is to monitor the plague, knowing Argo and its citizens have weeks left, at best.

Just Before the End / int_a81325d3	comment	Final Fantasy: The World of Balance portions of Final Fantasy VI are this, with the playable party unaware that such a thing could happen until Kefka and Gestahl are already on the Floating Continent. Final Fantasy VII hits this once Meteor gets summoned and the WEAPONs start showing up. Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. After 500 years of the world being filled with Chaos, Lightning wakes up to find out that the world only has 13 days left before it is destroyed and the new world is created for people to live in. Lightning has to guide souls to this new world while she still can, but she can extend the time by doing certain quests. But eventually the world will still end. Final Fantasy XIV had the red moon, Dalamud, slowly falling towards the world. As it falls, The Empire begins invading Eorzea and powerful monsters show up everywhere, including within cities. Eventually, the red moon does fall and breaks open, revealing the really pissed off primal, Bahamut, The dragon god wastes no time in scorching the land as he annihilates everything in his wake. Only a Heroic Sacrifice by Louisoix stops him and prevents further damage to the land. A Realm Reborn takes place 5 years after the Calamity and while most of the landscape is irreversibly changed, everyone has recovered. The events before the Calamity and during said Calamity occurred during 1.0 before and after the servers were shut down to remake the game. The trailer for the Shadowbringers expansion shows a group of rich and fat Miqo'te lounging around eating and drinking while Thancred is in a room underneath them fighting a monster. The develops pointed out that The First world is about to be consumed by an all destroying force of light, so the rich are partying it up while they still can. It is also revealed in Shadowbringers that the Source may be on its way to the end as well: in the future, the combination of an influx of light aether from the destruction of the First, combined with The Empire using a deadly chemical weapon, would cause an apocalypse that would make Bahamut's awakening seem like a rainy day in comparison. The heroes' efforts to stop the destruction of the First would also mean stopping this doomsday scenario. Also in Shadowbringers, the final act of the 5.0 story shows the Scions traversing the ruins of the forgotten Amaurot civilization, of which the Ascians are the remnants. Emet-Selch recreates the place as it was just before calamity struck, and the final dungeon has you witnessing the apocalypse as it unfolded long ago.

Just Before the End / int_a825da3e	comment	Magic: The Gathering: ** For M:TG's many planes (but particularly Dominaria) this is a horrific, cyclic trope, to the point that Time Rift Crisis (the events of Time Spiral block) was an apocalypse caused by an overabundance of apocalypses. The Fallen Empires expansion takes place after the Brothers' War but before the Ice Age. New Phyrexia was originally slated to be the first set in its block, showing After the End of the Phyrexian invasion of Mirrodin. Instead, the devs decided to shift it to the last set of the block, allowing players to live through the struggle (going as far as to tease another, fake set titled "Mirrodin Pure" to psych people out). The Amonkhet set was set during the leadup to the God-Pharaoh's return and the resultant end of the world. While the people of Amonkhet were absolutely psyched for this, the audience was well aware that the God-Pharaoh was Nicol Bolas and his return was not going to be pleasant for anybody...particularly since the next set was called "Hour of Devastation". As expected, Bolas's return led to the city of Naktamun being ravaged and most of the locals, including four of their Gods, brutally murdered. Devastation indeed.

Just Before the End / int_b85fbbaa	comment	The Yiddish Policemen's Union has a non-apocalyptic example. In this Alternate History, the Slattery Report was passed in 1940, turning Sitka, Alaska into a refuge for 4 million of Europe's Jews. After the stillbirth of Israel in 1948, Sitka was left as the world's only true Jewish refuge. However, this was only meant to last for sixty years and, by the time of the novel, the land is about to revert back to American control. The residents will not be able to stay in the US once the territorial transfer is complete, but they don't have any emigration alternatives either. The president, an evangelical Christian, is adamant that the Jews must retake Israel, but there's no doubt that it would involve war. Thus, many Jews don't know what exactly they are supposed to do and what will happen in a few months at all, and the book portrays the resulting feeling of all-pervasive uncertainty, emotional collapse and resignation very effectively. Within the police force, reports are left incomplete, cases are dropped, and no one besides protagonist Meyer Landsman actually cares about solving a murder.

Just Before the End / int_b9a6187c	comment	Walking withâ€¦: A few episodes in the various series are set right before a major extinction event occurs. Walking with Monsters: The first segment of "Clash of Titans" is set during the end-Permian, right at the cusp of the Great Dying, when massive volcanic activity is scorching the Earth beyond habitation. Over the course of the episode, an endless drought gradually kills off all the species in the episode, with the exception of the Diictodon, and its descendants become the most numerous land animal in the world after the extinction, during the Early Triassic. Walking with Dinosaurs: As you might expect, the last episode, "Death of a Dynasty", is about the K-Pg extinction event. The episode begins a few months before the asteroid hits and ends with the extinction of the dinosaurs as the Earth is plunged into darkness by the rain of molten rock and burning ash. However, even before this, it's stated that increased global volcanism have decimated the forest habitats and greatly increased the incidences of stillbirths among dinosaurs, giving the impression the meteor was just the straw that broke the camel's back. Walking with Beasts: "Whale Killer" is set right at the beginning of the Eocene-Oligocene extinction event, due to climate change causing the cooling and drying of the planet at a much faster rate than many organisms can adapt. The episode shows many animals struggling to survive this event, such as the main character, a pregnant Basilosaurus, trying to keep her unborn calf alive by finding enough prey to sustain both herself and the growing embryo, hunting in environments far outside her normal range.

As Earth's societies gradually collapse under the climate crisis, John's cryogenics research - the only viable way to get the entire population off-planet, according to him, anyway - is shut down as trillionaires redirect resources to FTL ships without cryo, planning to leave billions to die. When John realises that he's been granted power over life and death, he starts trying to use it to prevent the escape of the trillionaires, fails, and eventually becomes so obsessed with punishing them for it that he kicks off nuclear war and uses the death energy of humanity's destruction to seize the power of the Earth's soul, ascend to godhood, and rebuild the entire solar system as his personal empire, populated by resurrected humans who don't know what he did.

Mission environments and shots of the globe start with winter, slowly moving on to spring, summer, Sahara and Venus. It's quite effective since the game's non-linear enough that keeping up with the schedule is your concern. The mostly-unknown predecessor Earth 2140 also qualifies, as the two main factions are fighting over the dwindling resources of the planet.

Just Before the End / int_d1548747	comment	The later games in the Command & Conquer: Tiberian Series start heading in this direction, with GDI gradually losing the war to contain the spreading Tiberium. By the time Tiberium Wars takes place, GDI has actually made some progress in removing Tiberium thanks to its new sonic weaponry. Then the aliens show up. The sonic weaponry turns out to be very effective against them, which is pretty appropriate given that it subsequently turns out that they were the ones who created the stuff to soften us up pre-invasion, and it's under control as of Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight. And then the spread of Tiberium is halted, and Nod is gone as of the end of that game. They're going to be alright. Even the first game has a few hints in this direction — it does not take long in Tiberian Dawn before you know Tiberium is so valuable because it leeches up everything valuable in the soil (killing off any vegetation), and as the game progresses its toxic and mutagenic properties becomes clear, and no-one has any idea how to stop Tiberium from spreading... fittingly, Tiberian Sun has a few hints that, looked at from the perspective of a normal citizen, the world pretty much has ended.note Notice how nearly every settlement already has or is entirely in ruins even before you get to them, and that there's not a single mention of nations as anything other than a geographic descriptor despite GDI supposedly operating on a UN mandate?.

The major goal of the game is figuring out why this is happening and how to stop it. Long story short, you can't. While the Nomai did build a Stellar Station intended to detonate your star to harvest its energy for a science experiment, the Sun Station was non-functional - your sun is going nova because it's at the end of its lifespan. Furthermore, additional Nomai texts, and observation of distant stars also going nova, reveals that it's Just Before The Natural End of Time, and the universe as a whole has reached the end of its lifespan.

We get details of the insoluble coal crisis that first destroyed civilization, and of the eighteenth human race as they try to seed other solar systems and wait for the sun to explode, having chosen to appreciate this tragedy as an appropriate part of the beauty of the universe. And then there's the afterword, where they're blowing each other up and eating their dead while the system is being scorched clean. Seeding work, such as it is, is done to provide any sort of purpose, and the consensus is that the species should have died in peace before it started to putrefy. Still, in their lucid moments, it is very good to have been Man.

Just Before the End / int_f9cb2c07	comment	In The Second Try, the pre-time-travel chapters happen After the End, and the post-time-travel episodes happen a few months before the end of the world. When they go back to the past, Shinji and Asuka are well aware of the incoming Apocalypse. At the beginning, Asuka is too depressed to make anything about it, but Shinji encourages her to try to avert it.

Just Before the End / int_fb20cf66	comment	The Walking Dead Television Universe: Fear the Walking Dead begins just as the franchise's setting-defining Zombie Apocalypse is kicking in, focusing on a family in Los Angeles trying to survive as society starts to collapse. By Season 2, it's shifted fully to After the End territory. Tales of the Walking Dead: The episode "Blair; Gina" is set in Atlanta right at the start of the Zombie Apocalypse, showing people desperately trying to flee the city as the dead start to rise and the military begins to clamp down to try and maintain order. The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon: The episode "Alouette" opens with a flashback showing Isabelle's life as a party girl pre-Fall coming to a screeching halt as the dead rise and start to overrun Paris. Several more flashbacks throughout the episode show how French society started to collapse into anarchy over the following days as the walkers spread and people begin panicking.

Just Before the End / int_fb9c177d	comment	Transformers: Transformers: More than Meets the Eye: The Shadowplay arc was a flashback to pre-war Cybertron, a Crapsaccharine World, where one's alt-mode reflects their place in society Functionalism runs rampant and the working class has turned into a boiling pot of issues. The arc takes place on the cusp of the uprising, where the Cybertronians would engage in a war their species became infamous for. While society moves along normally, news reports show so many of the faults, rampant shootings, government mutilations, thugs able to assault or even kill the homeless, etc. The protagonists encounter casual murders, and government conspiracies that involve tampering with civilian minds to stop them from revolting. Even with Orion and his friends saving hundreds from a bomb, society falls apart anyways mere months later when a group of workers-turned-gladiators unite, sack Kaon, and plunge the world into war. Brian Ruckley's Transformers (2019) begins before the war between the Autobots and Decepticons, with a seemingly peaceful and happy Cybertron where the worst things going on are some minor political disputes. Then the first murder in living memory is committed, setting off a chain of Disaster Dominoes where all the little problems in Cybertronion society explode in the worst ways possible and the world hurtles uncontrollably towards a nightmarish Forever War.
