5:15 "The melancholy score of Hans Zimmer..." Small correction: Lorne Balfe wrote the majority of the music in this game; Hans Zimmer mainly contributed to the main theme.
Theres something so distinctive about the campaigns through COD 4 to Blacks ops 2. They have a clear identiy with their set pieces, characters, places etc and a certain bravodo that has been matched by anything else since. Feels like ever since BO2 (with a few exceptions) campaign has just been a flavourless meal with some cool moments mashed in between but nothing of any real substance. Any way sorry for the yap session nice vid bro.
Exactly. CoD4 to BO2 had an actual world they fleshed out. Infinite Warfare I think also did a great job of this (may be a future video). The modern entries may be more "realistic", but it's like in their attempt to be serious they don't stick the landing.
It is telling that we still remember this game 15 years late (oh god i can't believe its been that long) but some stuff made only a few years ago has already faded into obscurity. I know that being forgotten quickly is the fate of most games, but I feel like its happening more to newer ganes. MW2 was hardly a perfect game or campaign, but it had good enviornmental storytelling and I couldn't even tell you the last game I played that matched it.
I think my personal favorite MP games are MW2 2009 and Titanfall 2. Campaign wise it's a toss up between Doom Eternal and Titanfall 2, but on atmosphere stuff it is hard to beat games like MW2 and WaW.
"THEY ARE EVERYWHERE" Still gives me chills, it's so helpless and deadfull, pretty good video, bit of advice, would have spended a little longer in the post EMP Washington section, the absolute silence bronken only by the sound of heavy rain and the soldiers speaking with lower tones absolutely makes that one of my favorite section in the game, it's so eerie, could have woven it a little more in the video, overall pretty good regardless.
I've just been making Titanfall gameplays for a while, always wanted to do more essay like content if I could make something of it. Maybe I'll play some more games for content lol
