War Front Turning Point currently looks to be abandonware.

"The German resistance offers everything: A noble cause, a clear enemy, and last but not least: BABES." I didn't know I needed to hear this line in 2024 but now my life is complete.
I mean, to be serious, the arch-tyrant survived like five attempts by sheer luck. We’re talking “had to go to the bathroom and the bomb shot the stable through the ceiling above his head” level loony toons nonsense.
The point is that the devs explicitly did not want the player to go up against Hitler, while at the same time giving an alibi for Nazis teaming up with allies in the form of the "German resistance" to the "nameless chancellor" who is somehow worse than Hitler. Who knew that poor Wehrmacht was so conflicted about serving the Nazis? Good thing that the "enemy on the eastern front was clear". I guess it is OK to burn down the Byelorussian and Ukrainian countryside. BABES!
@@BIacklce One question that bothers me in this alternate world. What were the Japanese doing in this universe's version of the Pacific war. Is the Empire of Japan a thing in this Universe or what cause its WW2, half the time i expect a Red Alert 3 scenario to play out and we get a Empire of the Rising Sun situation in the process.
Ah, of course it's the damn Hungarians again....This game deeply reminded me of Codename Panzers, another Hungarian-made WW2 RTS from the 2000s that's eerily similar to this one both graphically and in some gameplay aspects (Like the repair trucks flinging steel plates at the tanks to repair them, the animations are downright identical.) Hoping Mandalore will cover those games together with their earlier product, S.W.I.N.E, which got a little more popular in the grand scheme of things.
When he starts explaining the German faction at 18:05 the background music is Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition's theme for the Huns. Very subtle joke Mandy, I love it.
Hungarian here: I actually read an interview with the creator of this game. The story was supposed to start off with the allies assassinating Hitler. This angered the nazis so they shifted their focus to the west and invaded britain
I feel like it's more likely that with Hitler being assassinated, their army was free to not take the all-or-nothing, badly favored risk of trying to invade Russia with resources they didn't have while they were still fighting on the Western front. They wouldn't be angered by the assassination; the Nazis were already mad at Hitler for going after Stalingrad, that's why there were so many assassination attempts from within his own military elite.
To a fascist mind, the war with western allies was a regretable and tragic misunderstanding, while murdering tens of millions of people in Eastern Europe is ok.
@@chrisjfhelep5095 Hellsing OVA is one of those things I wouldn't describe as "tryhard deep" myself lol Like, the main character is this constantly grinning vampire with big freakin guns and then there's a police woman with a giant cannon and a Catholic with spikes screaming "AMEN!" at the top of his lungs, then the main character gets transformed into a little girl and beats another kid up but not before there's an all-out war between the Vatican and Nazi vampires in London. And, of course, who could forget about catboy Schrodinger and his constant deaths. It's extremely silly and quite self-aware, despite some emotional moments particularly at the end. Tryhard cool, though? Oh yeah, it tries really goddamn hard to be cool I find it charming myself but it's definitely tacky, pretty distasteful and heavily subjective
@@thosebloodybadgers8499 My problem is that the anime sometimes takes itself too serious despite all the crazy and silly things that happen. I like over the tops stories but a balance is necesary to not fall into categories like "too dumb" or "try hard". A good example could be Mad Max: Fury Road.
Imagine if they made a Soviet campaign with Naadia and start if off with saying something like "Her service to her country gets her many things, glory, honor, and of course.. studs" like every hero in this game is a lascivicous airhead.

The Mark Felton music popping in was such a good moment, along with the insane Hyperborea route in TNO after you mentioned "realistic" alt-history. Your editing is top-notch.
I uploaded all the "Behind the scenes" DVD extras content about the game, if you are insterested. The development team was hungarian and they added a second bonus DVD for the game then. The title is: "War Front: Turning Point DVD Extras / Bónusz tartalom". The team is speaking hungarian but there is english subtitle.
My first thought was "demons?" my second was "aliens?" I was waiting for a twist where some fourth faction would appear causing the allies, axis, and soviet union to join up to defeat them. I was thinking no way would any game (that isn't some 4chan nonsense) ever show the nazi's working with the allies while still having swastika flags (at least change them to the pre reich flag). But apparently Hungary has some weird ideas that I was not familiar with.
@@adrianoippolito1999 You see, Russia once drowned Hungarian uprising against Austria in blood (by request from Austrian emperor who is relative of Russian emperor and cant do it himself). Since then (two centuries or so) Hungarians have some funny 4chan ideas.
This game has the kind of tone where, after that final cutscene, you almost expect it to cut to a shadowy figure in a dark, smoky room, listening to the news about the end of the war, smugly saying it's all according to plan, and laughing.
“See a power armor soldier die the second worst death next to the Animatrix” I haven’t watched that in decades and I instantly heard the sounds of “Oh god help me!” and flesh peeling in my brain…
Tho when to think about it, only pure fantasy units are mechwalkers, jetpack infantry, forcefield truck, ice tank and Ice bommer. All other units have at least /some/ grounding in reality.
"If I wanted to play compelling WW2 stories I could play a bunch of HOI4 mods, but if you do that too long you might end up wearing Hugo Boss or Violent Vixen by the end of the year" Lmaoooo
@@HotBlasterBot Maybe it's a joke about how many trans girls there are in the HOI4 fanbase? That's a joke I've heard repeated before, that Hearts of Iron IV fans are either neonazis or trans. Otherwise idk either.
You joke, but in first edition/Rogue Trader dreadnoughts were just super power armor that a pilot could get in and out of, as was available to both Space Marines and Imperial Guard.
I mean, basic Space Marines got their own Not-Dreadknight, Sororitas also have a Not-Dreadknight armor suit *and* the Penitent Engine, for all we know Guardsmen are next in line for a Deathtrap Armored Baby Carrier.
I am actually interested if this garbage got translated? If not, how did mandalore found out about it? This specific kind of crappy literature (and these particular book covers) is a big meme in russian-speaking internet, but seemed too niche to be recognizable outside of it
@@Old_goose929 I've seen some short snippets translated and funny moments recounted by people who've read those books on couple of forums. I think Spacebattles was one of the forums for example but don't really remember for sure, it's been a while.
that is absolutely hilarious. Also to the person above, mandlore has visited russia multiple times and has a eastern eroupean house mate. He doesn't talk as much about it since ukraine.@@Pendiumful
@@Old_goose929 I didn't find any translations of попаданцы fiction into English, so I assume he learned it from some article talking about this phenomenon.
"When they can't die and live under your real first floor" Being a MandaloreGaming fan feels more and more like being the protagonist of a Lovecraft novel every new video
I could feel the "Euro" nature of this game from the first scenes of gameplay, then the random bottle of Hungarian "Cserszegi Fűszeres" wine shows up in a cutscene front and center and that confirmed my suspicions
I also had to double back and check on that label. Like, Google couldn't find any Szentjakabhegy, but we do have a "Jakab-Hegy"....but it is unrelated to the wine. Not to mention... according to the wiki... this type of wine was initially created in 1960... so why the 1936? And its origin is on Cserszegtomaj. Not Jakab-hegy. Which is half a country away. This is frankenstein's euro timespace paradox wine.
I just love the absurdity of the Maus - The *_Maus_* - being a frontline unit. For the uninitiated, the tank weighed almost 200 tons and was equipped with a main 128mm cannon with a *_co-axial_* 75mm, couldn't cross any cobblestone bridge in Europe, _and_ would have been the rough equivalent of filet mignon for allied artillery and air power.
it was made just so that if the allies made a super heavy tank first they wouldnt be caught off-guard designing a new one of their own. its only weird with hindsight and without context, also the allies hadnt achieved air superiority in the east by then
@@abbcc5996 All of which would have been fine and dandy for Germany, if not for the fact that war room strategy and battlefield tactics don't always play out 1:1 - Crete, Barbarossa, Market Garden, Kursk, etc. On paper, sure, the Maus is this imposing box of death and destruction, but its potential effectiveness in combat would have relied on the Allies cowering in pants-shitting terror at the sight of such a beast and not being able to figure out how to destroy it in-situ.
the reality is that the germans loved to maintain this facade of "we are a nation of tanks" but the reality is that the german war machine was more top-heavy than a one-legged arnold schwarzenegger
Not to mention that the reload process was extremely slow thanks to the chamber design and shell size, making it a sitting duck for possibly minutes at a time while two guys wrestled the shells around. Complicated further by the fact that for such a massive tank it was tiny inside because it had the same kind of drivetrain as a diesel electric locomotive.
so the story completely ignores and papers over any and all atrocities committed by the nazis, first and foremost obviously the shoa, and then has the russians turn full stupid evil so the allies and suddenly "good" "germans" can team up to fight the evil commie menace? holy spagoli, I thought this level of wehraboo-core only existed in unofficial HOI4 mods. I definitely do not want to get any closer insight into the political opinions of the devs of this game. also saying "there wasn't any money left to make a russian campaign" is a weird thing to say when it's pretty obvious there was no interest in giving the soviet side anything but a villainous portrayal. the only way there would've been a russian campaign is if they'd have you play as defectors from the russian army who team up with, again, the fucking nazis, to fight against the evil threat of superstalin commulists. like, i get people from post-soviet countries not exactly having much love for soviet russia, but even for that this goes way too far in the other direction.
seeing the nazi and the allies drive together with heroic music as it centers on the third rich banner was wild. Had my suspecion and was not even suprised when when mandalore said it was hungarien
@@boblately5402 Before you go further down this line of argument please understand you're siding with the Nazis in a denouncement of American imperialism. Like you understand the contradiction here?
As to the whole "the chancellor" rather than Hitler business, it may have something to do with the Game's Euro origins. IIRC a lot of European nations have some pretty strict rules over depiction of anything Nazi (note the use of Iron Crosses in all their flags ingame rather than swastikas). Perhaps the gamedevs didn't want to deal with the censors and so avoid mentioning any IRL Nazi leadership by name.
6:43 "See a powered armour soldier die the 2nd worst death next to the Animatrix" - Goddamn that's a reference that I didn't think I would think of ever again. Also you had to remind me of that poor bastard didn't you?
@@Dlúith So, there was an animation short movie called the Animatrix, showing how humanity fell to robots in warfare over time. From memory, the scene I'm referencing specifically was near the end, when the robots discovered how easily it was to kill humans physically without the use of firearms or conventional weaponry. What happened was there was a lone soldier in power armor attempting to fight for his life. The machine that found him grabbed the armor by its arms and legs and kept it from escaping using tentacle-like appendages. It then ripped open the cockpit where the soldier was struggling, begging for mercy, and wrapped a tendril around him, quite literally tearing him out of the suit as he screamed before finally being killed, tearing his arms and legs off which were still attached to the suit. I dunno who the VA was but to this day It's stuck with me, horrifying.
I definitely had the "best buy" experience you described too as a kid. Germany has a highly monopolized electronic market that is controlled mainly by three chains (two of which are actually the same company...) and every one of these big stores had these big pyramids where there were cheap, old games ranging between 5 and 15 Euros. It's how i got games like Empire at War and The Battle for Middle Earth, but also an immense amount of silly, licensed shovelware. It wasn't hard to convince my parents when we were out to shop for some stuff my dad needed (or were just browsing stuff... my parents had a nasty divorce and my dad liked to bribe us) to get one of those if me and my brother found a game we liked. Also the callback to Mystery of the Droods made me reel with laughter. Well played, sir.
Memory of that kind of games is why I will probably forever have a soft spot in my heart for CD Projekt and why their cameo in Phantom Liberty moved me more than it should. I still remember the blue-and-red box, with original artwork in a small window on the cover, whole rows of 'em in this or that supermarket and the stress of choosing which will be the 'only one' you were allowed. That's also how I got slapped in the face with Kingdom Under Fire.
I somehow picked the best games there. Star Wars Empire at War, Rome Total War Gold Edition, Sup-Com Gold Edition. I was really lucky with what I found in those pyramids. Man, rifling through those and looking at the cases, imagining what the game would be like...those were the days.
I kind of missed out on those games because I rarely got a chance to go through the video game aisle at a supermarket when I was younger (I'd usually be left at the Lego or Barbie aisles instead), and when I moved to a bigger city in middle school I already had access to one of then-renowned local gaming magazines and internet so I could check other people's opinions... but at the same time that very same magazine came with a DVD full of games. Sometimes it was old classics, sometimes a big budget game that already made rounds through all the discounted retail editions, and sometimes it was this exact kind of Mandalore/Warlockracy/Ross bait. A game nobody has heard of, often made by a smaller studio in Europe, sometimes only playable in English. They had stuff like Darkstar One, Advent Rising, Loki, Sacred, Mage Knight Apocalypse... I should probably go through my collection and see what can I dig up. Another good source of these trash/treasure coinflips is small stores with second-hand PS2/early X360 and PS3 games. I have a habit of going there with my partner whenever I visit her and I seem to find the darndest stuff out there.
I had it too for a while. This somehow lead me into buying Karnaaj. I have no memory of buying it so I'm convinced a demon left it in my game collection at the time.
10:53 As a French, I can confirm there is nothing weird with that statement. Talking shit about England is just an instinctual behavior that all Europeans have. Now, if a Dutch is talking shit about England, it's different. They've been in contact with drunk english men: they're talking from experience
As a hungarian kid who got his games the similar fashion as you, I am considering myself very lucky to see my childhood once again. It sparked mylove for the RTS genre. Thanks for the video as always.
I love the competition between Mandy and Sseth to review the most obscure game possible. The former with old forgotten games in genres that have fallen from popularity and the latter with the most niche indies.
I imagine It's like that "duck/rabbit season" bit from looney toons, but instead of Elmer Fudd with a shotgun, Ross Scott just shows up and says. "Hey, guys! Take a look at this!"
Making a game about Nazis and Americans allying to defeat the Soviets is such a Hungarian move. It is as Hungarian as Spellcross, where 90s NATO forces stand against an invasion of canibalistic Elves and Orcs is Czechoslovak (Spellcross was the last Czechoslovak game in many ways).
It really never ceases to amuse me just how mad the entire Butthurt Belt still is, I mean Ukraine is a good part of why but it is just freaking hilarious to me the level of utter butt devestated that every single country anywhere near Russia expresses toward Russia.

I remember one person in a discord for a certain pig-themed military shitposter was actively summarizing and translating dozens of them.

And that nicholas II had pyrokinetics.
32:36 The only historical figure in the game (not counting dead Hitler), and they still got him wrong lol. Permanent revolution and declaring war on the whole world was more Trotsky's gimmick than Stalin's, though the book 1984 may have given you the impression otherwise.
@@Redhead-pf8le Stalin won the power struggle but Trotsky killed him with an icepick and used sicret czechnologies to reshape himself in Stalin and take his poisition.
@@TovKafur In the Soviet Union in 1920s-30s there was three factions - TheLeft(Trotskysts), The Centre(Stalin) and The Right(Bukharin) Historically, Stalin initially aligned with the Right, eliminated the Left, centralised power(hah get it) and then did away with the Right. I guess in this timeline Stalin aligned with Left instead and made a Left-Centre coalition.
@@Redhead-pf8le There was much more factions than HOI4 has represented, including Zinovyev-Kamenev bloc, presumed military faction (Primakov, Tuhachevsky and so on), not counting that neither the Left nor the Right were any uniform (e.g. Rykov allied to Bukharin but hardly shared his every idea), as well as apolitical (of sorts) "old guard". There never were only 3 factions, and as you correctly pointed out, Stalin maneuvered a lot (including opposing Trostkyte industrialisation programm only to implement it - slightly changed - himself later). The fact that Stalin aligned with Bukharin and Kamenev-Zinovyev was more becuase everyone was trying to oust Trotsky who was very popular in army (the Father of the Red Army, after all). It had little to do with actual ideology.
@@TovKafur you overthinking, any history-knowing American (or most people in this comment section) know that all deal was this way: Stalin instantly usurped power after death of Lenin and then, like, out of pure paranoia purged people for 30 years straight

Seeing Mandalore cover this ancient gem of a fossil fills me with hope that he'll someday review Codename Panzers Phase 1 and 2. They were such awesome old-school RTS with quite a few unique gameplay mechanics like tanks having actual armor layouts, being able to crew everything from tractors to civilian cars (and capturing enemy vehicles by roasting them with flamethrowers until the crews would run out covered in fire.) They were made by a small Hungarian studio that sadly went bankrupt in the 2000s, and I'm pretty sure they were ported to Steam around 2018 by a different studio which acquired the rights. Surprisingly bugless and working flawlessly on modern systems as well, which is quite strange, I only ever recall it crashing once in all the times I've had the pleasure of repeatedly beating it over my entire life.
Ha, I played phase 1, 2, cold war and even it's sort of spiritual succesor, rush for Berlin. I remeber first game stired quite a controversy in Poland due to "historical revisionism" 😂
I played CP Phase 2 a long while back, even got promotional postcards that were free to pick up at the time in the tech store. Many years later,, while playing Sudden Strike 4, I was surprised when the animations felt so familiar, only to discover that many of the team were previous CP devs.

Rewriting someone elses account in your own words is schoolboy bullshit. We're not afraid of Mrs. Terwilliger finding out you copy pasted something from a website, we're here to learn some shit about WW2.
Some how a game where the nazis are not given much attention as villians and then the russians turn out to be more evil then in reality feels like a verry telling choice.
I feel a little bad for you cause it looks like an unpolished and unsupported version of better RTS like Command and Conquer and could never in the world touch something like Warcraft 3 (that literally had this but the entire world as a RTS as a mod/map all with custom models, sounds and animations) HOWEVER, it does look fun. The alt history stuff, the units, the abilities. I'd play it right now even if just to finish one campaign if it would be easy to get and maybe have a slight remaster for modern resolutions, so definitely I feel like it has its qualities somewhere Honestly its a shame I never knew about the game but I imagine a more polished version with some more budget and two years of balancing patches would make this alot of fun
@@PuellaMagiHomuraAkemi don't worry, I played Red Alert 3 just as much, if not more, however Warfront's TPS mechanic made my child brain so absolutely wild back then.

@@owldiamond2108 considering that i'm russian and written book in that genre 20 years ago - i don't really need explanation, but thanks anyway i guess. But fairly sure it's same genre.

It's good old "missplaced person" trope and political views have nothing to do with genre itself, only with quality of writing if anything.

As a Hungarian, this game was my childhood, I love every second of it and I hated how this game was nowhere to be found on the internet. Glad to see it finally getting some coverage by a larger youtuber! ❤🎉 To this day I have the physical version of the game :D!
If you think these are great cutscenes, Mandy, you should definitely check out the Strategic Mind series. Ukrainian-made WWII strategy games with only the finest drunks they could find in the parking lot of a pub doing their worst accents voice those lines. You haven't lived alternate history until you've seen "Hitler" order his tanks through the "R-Denny's forest" with a nasaly American accent like the actor's doing his best not to do his Woody Allen impersonation and stilted reading like they were reading the lines for the first and only take while watching cutscenes with animation that makes Thunderbirds look well-choreographed. The most absolute mind-blowing ones are the Japanese, where apparently, their voice training consists of hearing the Mickey Rooney Breakfast at Tiffany's voice, and then voicing lines where the submarines go "Silent... but deadly!" The American bombers use awful British accents, the British bombers have American accents, and the American battleships for some reason have an awful French accent while making suggestive comments about how "big their gun is, baby."
@@ComissarYarrick Two things: One, it's actually a series of five games (including one where you play as Finland and fight off the USSR named "Spirit of Liberty" released by the Ukrainian developer AFTER 2022). And two, the actual GAME part (besides the ridiculous zoom-in action camera) of the games are good/standard for a Panzer General or Panzer Corps-type game. I think the naval units having two different damage meters for equipment (repairable in the field) and hull (not repairable) is interesting, but it's by-and-large a competent game except the utterly acid trip "real history" they portray. In The Pacific, Pearl Harbor is portrayed as Japan launching a sneak attack on one family and killing a little girl's mom. Between battles, they have Chester Nimitz in an office with "real history" pin-up model war bond posters, for example. They portray Isaroku Yamamoto as an inviolate beacon of pure pureness who is constantly shocked by how the evil IJA, led by general Jabba the Hutt, was mistreating prisoners. (And yeah, to some degree that stuff happened, but how they choose to frame it so as to make things "dramatic" is so willfully misleading, it's dizzying.) Like, the guy had a wife and kids, but they portray him as going to his geisha and telling her he's leaving for war over a game of shogi and drinking matcha tea served in the formal tea ceremony style, because telling the wife you're heading out "wasn't Japanese enough."

Not sure if it's lore or just a dig and Europeans. "First floor" being the ground floor is kind of an American thing, where in Europe the first floor refers to what Americans would call the second floor, and the ground level is explicitly called out as being the ground floor.
