I can't believe this was a BO4 map, just played it for the first time, and, after playing BO1,2, and 3 for years, it's the only map in the game that legit feels like an actual classic zombies map
Classified was supposed to be the final Aether to Feature Ultimis as a tribute map. But clearly Treyarch, Blundell and Treyarch changed course and changed things once all resources went to Blackout instead of Zombies, Multi-player and Story mode.
17:16 "I carve a path no other can take, I alone can lead you to your damnation!" This is honestly a pretty cool inversion of Primis Richtofen's Salvation line.
I have enjoyed this so much haha this is some of my personal favorites 5:45 6:25 12:17 16:09 16:25 19:09 19:51 21:51 24:05 26:07 26:35 26:56 27:53 30:40 30:50 31:03 33:32
17:18 is where the quote is, and it's a warped/mirrored version of 2.0's "I walk a path no other can take, I alone can lead you to your salvation." Tbh, there's a lot more mirrored/warped quotes between these 2 spanding all the way back to WAW, and I can't help but wonder how many were intentional or just coincidence or callbacks Still, I find this interesting, 1.0 & 2.0 are more alike than they would probably like to believe
Is it just me, or he significantly less shrill than in the original two games. Like he was squeezing over every kill in those. It was more understandable in the Origins onwards timeline because he was practically a new character, but this is supposed to be the WAW/ BO1 Richtofen.
I blame it on the fact that they were probably tired coming to the pentagon, all the others seem rather tame compared to the previous games. Even in the cinematic they were all bleh, maybe after they got out of the cage they felt more energized and pepped up to "end this" once and for all.
Well, Richtofen was sedated, and it doesn't help that he's recently had to reunite his soul with his body after over 10 years of fighting Maxis for control of the Aether, and then was stuck as a zombie for a while there, so, I think he deserves to be a little tired. As for the others, they're just done with this and are tired from the non-stop fighting and deception. And the experimentation, too.
Classified happens between Shangri-La and Moon. Maybe Richtofen is a bit tired considering his quotes in Moon. “Points points points! Weeee!!! Wundevaa yeh.
