It's amazing how the writers for Blacklist managed to develop a totally morally reprehensible character into a slightly better version of himself to begin the steps to being a good guy.
Keith Hiew Yeah agreed. He is hillarious in this game. Less of a villan. Dont think he was ever a bad guy. Just did what people told him to do to keep him self from getting killed. None the less, one of my fav video game villians.
Kobin should be next protagonist. Agent Kobin : "I used to be a crook, now I hunt them" "I used to kill civilians, now I protect them" "I don't even care about money now" "I am a Splinter Cell"
Don't feel like it would really work. In my opinion. All the Special Ops experience Sam has, serving with the SEAL's and such. Decades of service overseas on various assignments before becoming a Splinter Cell. Its not just something you can hop into. I think he was even pulled from retirement to join Third Echelon.
I thought they did a good job. It showed the interrogators to actually be pretty simple minded and stupid. Small time fucks. Came across well, that was my first thought of them when I saw them. Just a bunch of nobody's trying to play a big game with Kobin strapped to a chair. They were just shitty small time cops after all, they'd be pretty stupid. Unable to grasp nay understand any bigger picture.
Lol at 6:18 Fisher and Briggs jumped out at approximately 250 miles per hour and they act like it ain’t shit. IRL they would be splattered all over the strip.
No. There's a side mission in Blacklist where you find and rescue him from a Voron facility. There's a bunch of unused dialogue between he and Sam as well after he rescues him but for some reason they cut it from the final game.
oh that makes sense, i never even knew he was in the game and i played almost all the missions except coop, i guess i missed something important in coop.
As much as i'll appreciate kobin over someone like Charlie or Briggs in terms of character development/involvement, he personally shouldn't've been involved after the ending of Conviction/Blacklist; I understand that both him and Fisher got played like a fiddle by Lambert for the whole Conviction debacle that ultimately got him killed, but I feel like Ironside's fisher in Blacklist would've made it his mission to tie up the loose end that Kobin was for all the pain he put Fisher through. He gets keynoted from "The guy that made fisher break" to "the comedic value" and it ruined what Splinter Cell used to be, even when they didn't kill off Sam's deadpan humour.
Nah. After Conviction Sam was done with that whole debacle he was only really interested in getting away with Sara. He was only so far off the reservation because she was still alive and in danger. Kobin wasn't a threat. Lambert manipulated them both. He would have just done what he does. vanish back into the shadows. You saw how terrified Kobin was. He's lived every day since then shitting himself over the thought Fisher's going to come back and finish the job. That would have been enough to keep him docile.
In conviction he was just a petty gunrunner but in blacklist he's more there to be comedy and you can feel him slowly changing his identity and growing on Sam despite the past. Small redemption you know.
@@alcidesprieto1967 How does Andry Kobin know about the Blacklist, did Megiddo create this terrorist group by any chance? Anyway Sam Fisher didn't know that Kobin could redeem himself, why did he want to spare his life?
