The Wolfenstein reboot means a lot to me. The New Order and The Old Blood are some of my favourite games of all time, but after those ones it kinda just went downhill. Youngblood and The New Colossus were huge disappointments, and I feel like we won't be getting a Wolfenstein 3 anytime soon...

Yeah I wouldn't get your hopes up with the Indian Jones game, they fucked up big time with Fallout 76, Wolfenstein Young Blood and The Elderscrolls online. They've almost abandoned the fanbase with the fallout tv show (As its a show not for fans, but for people who've never seen the series, its absolutely frustrating for people who already know the lore), so I wouldn't count their game being any better unless they're desperate

The thing that bothers me most about Youngblood is the story implies that almost 20 years after the new colossus the nazi’s still haven’t been defeated. It sucks all the excitement out of Wolfenstein 3’s story and setting before it even exists. If I remember correctly they are only hanging onto Europe in the 1980’s when Youngblood takes place and the rest of the world is rebuilding or revolting but the writers expect us to believe that BJ and his friends liberated America and he was like this is enough. Not buying it he hated the Nazis and wouldn’t stop until they’re all dead.

The guy with the eye patch and broken feet in Deathshead's Compound (1946) is Prendergast. Prendergast was the one who triggered the "You ain't got no churches in England?" exchange with "Blondie," the snarky British Paratrooper. He did survive getting launched out of the incinerator room window at the end of the chapter, in addition to the fall into the Baltic Sea by fortune of being nearest to Fergus/Wyatt. His room can be found in the Berlin Safehouse, adorned with Christian paraphernalia. Fergus/Wyatt will make a comment about how they made mistakes in Blazkowicz absence, and sent him off on a mission where he never returned.

New Order was genuinely surprisingly good to me. I picked it up expecting a generic shooter, but got the opposite. But then I mistakingly played New Colossus...

Too many long cutscenes, nonsense upon nonsense, awful humour and annoying characters and then the gameplay... The level designers must've been asleep.

Serious games and humor is always gonna be a hard topic to bring up-- it depends on how well it's integrated (Like 3D's boss kill cams, they have that ID flair to them.) I personally enjoy when games have unserious characters or throw you off with a joke after a serious moment, most of the time, they're written well. The *problem* is when humor is excruciatingly noticeable, and almost entirely your focus. Oddworld 1 & 2, Fallout 1 & 2 have this same issue where people are split down the middle on which game is better solely based on the fact that the sequels are less serious and have more humor, But they're still great games nonetheless.

I never actually finished New Order. It was sold on me as old school shooter in new tech, but what I got instead was game that possibly wanted to replicate what old shooters were like, but was not allowed to leave their AAA baggage behind: slow movements, lots of cutscenes, walking expositions, "Press E to keep playing", pointless "stealth" sections. Old Blood improved gameplay-to-bullshit ratio significantly, though it was still there. Sure, zombie level was a slog, stealth level was insulting, but more often then not it would let me actually enjoy the game with no interruptions. And I loved first villain/boss when he comes at you in power armor screaming bloody murder because you killed his dog.

Pro Tip: You can pretty much just run through that stealth section in OB. All but one of the guards aren't fast enough to follow you to the door locks, and you can easily lure that guard behind a generator so he doesn't have LoS on the lock.

Isn't Brutal Doom, the mod for the original Doom, the main inspiration for the new Doom? Also recruiting inexperienced young adults and sending them to their deaths isn't a desperate move, as far as I know it's standard military procedure. Good review of the game overall though.

Man I remember I got this on 360 from a pawn shop. Came on like 4 discs. Beat it, loved it. Then I saw that foundry teaser for DOOM 2016 and immediately realized that they made it all of the run and gun sections of Wolf. It got me so hyped and made me so obsessed with DOOM 2016 that I not only played Wolf on repeat to practice but also led to me being one of the first people to beat 2016 UN on Xbox.

What I adore so much about Blazkowicz as a character is that - yes - he is a walking, talking flesh-tank who looks like he gets his daily minerals by munching directly on raw fucking metal, but he is also just incredibly kind, empathetic, and caring. Nothing more badass than kindness backed by strength.

Great compilation of a fun series! I think Machinegames unfortunately learned the absolutely wrong lesson from The new Order. The new colossus doubled down on the funny bits too much while also being afraid to show any actual hard hitting atrocities like the first game. I was honestly shocked that the same team made this game.

I'm a huge Halo fan and while Halo gets all the credit for modern FPS controls on console, Alien Resurrection actually debuted an almost identical control scheme almost a full year earlier. A couple lesser known PS1 games even had similar controls stretching back to '98 a couple months after the original Dual Shock dropped. AND EVERYONE HATED THEM. Nearly every review of these games lambasted the "confusing" controls. Then Halo pops up in 01 and every one is down bad for controlling movement with one stick and the camera with the other with the shoulder buttons for weapons and raved about how revolutionary they were. Halo's true contribution to console FPS controls wasn't the layout, it was realizing you could have an experience similar to KBM if you made aiming sticky and gave players plenty of aim assist.

As a german Wolfenstein obviously wasnt a great seller here so I mostly watch videos like this. Of course the americans can have way more freedom using symbols that are essential forbidden to show in germany for good reasons. But great supercut here :) The concept of the Nasties winning 2nd WW is unique and gets portrayed very serious in the first games but almost comically in The New Colossus. But The New Colossus is one of the wackiest inconsistent sequels out there anyway...

For me, it's funny that relics from dead empires when, depend on context, are considered "taboo". Now I don't advocate for any of them but simply banning the symbols for fear of people building the same thing is ridiculous as there have been many more horrid empires committing more war crimes than WW2.

Found this video thanks to the youtube feed, and I am honestly so happy to see someone extensively cover the reboots, they're not just not talked about ENOUGH, I feel like they're not talked about AT ALL, barely anyone mentioned it aside from obligatory Gman I think. At least I remember people talking more about how much of a slop Youngblood ended up being. It's like "if you thought New Colossus was bad, hold my beer" situation there. Edit: I am extremely sad that what we got was Youngblood in the end. Modern AAA-gaming consumed this franchise like a plague. First it was the marvel-esque writing in NC, and then lifebars, same low bar of writing and damage numbers in Youngblood. Feels like they just wanted to have playable female characters, but didn't know how to make it work. Should've just let it rest after New Order and Old Blood DLC. Wait till the time this franchise could've gotten something much better, something it truly deserved when it comes to getting a sequel that holds up to the bar that New Order has set. Loved the video, subbed, bell is on, I'm looking forward to more things as I watch some of the other videos you've got.

Your other agent getting shocked during interrogation, the cable train ride, the town, catacombs, zombies. Hell you can even hear the classi "aroooga" base alarm in one of the sections. And the main Naughty baddie, Helga von Bulow, is an obvious nod to Helga von Schabbs. Both being overweight officers of SS Paranormal Division, who got killed by a monster they had awakened.

Cool video man but the thing you were saying around the 10 minute mark about the nazis being so much smarter and having better tech is an utter misconception created partly by a lot of WW2 media wanting to have an 'underdog' story about fighting the nazis. In reality they were hilariously incompetent with their tanks being prone to breakdowns and hard to produce. Their impressive victory in France was one part dumb luck, one part french incompetence and one part literal meth. That's why this game has to resort to giving them literal science fiction tech to make them win the war. It's good for what it is but please don't act like it has any basis in reality. If you didn't mean it like that, I apologize for the misunderstanding.
