Enjoying his being retconned into a gay Jew? >that plain white logo when the 90s version had detail Bethesda can go out of business for all I care.
>>2685 Meme slayer is not doom guy.
Anything Bethesda touches is no longer canon. Even TES since the original creators left the studio in the early 2000's if I'm not wrong.
Oh, perfect timing, /vb/ user! I was wondering if Wolfenstein The New Order was a good game, because it was looking somewhat interesting.
>>2686 It's pretty much true. The entire concept of "The Doomslayer" is at odds with the original purpose of Doomguy as a character. Doomguy was simply our link to the world of Doom, all we needed to know about him is that he was a True Grit space marine, and was tough enough he could survive the battle with hell though our actions as the player. "Doom Slayer" is try hard fan fiction. Nothing Doom 2016 or Eternal did made him more interesting, it made him less interesting, it keep adding all this needless lore and mythos, Keeps telling you how "Amazing" You are supposed to be, How "Badass" and "Cool" and even "Quirky" you are. Instead of letting your actions as the player speak for themselves. And the games keep reinforcing how much stronger you are than your enemies, so the threat you are dealing with is only made less threatening. It's all retarded, and it works in opposition of what supposed to make Doom cool. >>2688 The New Order and Old Blood are both worth playing, I don't really recall anything worth complaining about. 2014 was still a time before all this culture war nonsense got so much momentum, so New Order got to just be a game about an Alt 1960's where the Nazi's won, without that feeling like it was some kind of political statement, unlike how Wolf II The New Colossus decided to directly reference the "Punch a Nazi" meme at the time in it's marketing. New Order isn't tainted by that. Maybe looking back on it nowadays you see a bit of what was coming, For example depending on the split timeline you play the game in there is (an obvious decision near the star of the game to branch the timeline) You can meet Jimi Hendrix. It can feel like this is the forced political stuff we seen nowadays in hindsight, but I'd say the conversations between J and BJ are tastefully written. The other timeline instead of J you meet Tekla and she's a hyper Intelligent autist, she believes the outcome of the universe can be boiled down to a mathematical equation, both characters bounce off of BJ well enough for their place in the story to be justified. I didn't make a webm of her scenes, so they are here. https://yewtu.be/embed/EURnRZ0tb44? You can obviously tell any sense of taste was gone when they made New Colossus, and had a naked pregnant woman shoot double machine guns as if that's empowering and not fucking retarded, but that doesn't change New Order and Old Blood being perfectly fine games. Maybe an Anon will disagree with me, but I had a Positive experience with those games, and knew to call it quits after them and not play New Colossus.
>>2689 Forgot the Jimi Hendrix webm.
>>2689 >I'd say the conversations between J and BJ are tastefully written Absolutely not, neither was his death, TNC made the whole game like that.
>>2692 I can't exactly disagree with you too much, watching the scenes again, it feels allot more blatant nowadays, since this kind of thing has been forced down our throats so much now. My opinion of the scenes is just still mostly influence by how I felt 10 years ago. Where it felt harmless, to have this kind of thing in the game.
>>972059 >2014 was still a time before all this culture war nonsense got so much momentum, so New Order got to just be a game about an Alt 1960's where the Nazi's won, without that feeling like it was some kind of political statement, unlike how Wolf II The New Colossus decided to directly reference the "Punch a Nazi" meme at the time in it's marketing. The entire premise of TNO is that the Nazis got a hold of the secret super-sciences belonging to a secret society of Kikes, and used that to win the war. How could they not be more blatant than that? In a series where much of the explanation behind the PREVIOUS games' wacky situations is that it's the results of German science (Heard of "Operation Paperclip"?) combining with Nazi occultism (Which was also a real thing, much of it was based on the writings Helena Blavatsky). >>972060 >Muh segregation Want to know something funny? The Socialists and the Neo-Liberal elites, literally the same people who "championed" the Civil Rights movement, were the ones that forced through laws like segregation because everyone else honestly didn't give a shit. So they needed those tensions in society for the purposes in bringing about their revolution. In fact, black Communists like Richard Wright actually helped expose this going on, that much of the racial tensions in the U.S. was entirely orchestrated. >"You were the Nazis" Allow me to quote a passage from Dale Carnegie's 1948 book How To Stop Worrying And Start Living. Starting on page 78 in the PDF: <As an example, let's take an intensely dramatic event that was about to take place in the pine woods of Mississippi back in 1918. A lynching! Laurence Jones, a coloured teacher and preacher, was about to be lynched. A few years ago, I visited the school that Laurence Jones founded-the Piney Woods Country School-and I spoke before the student body. That school is nationally known today, but the incident I am going to relate occurred long before that. It occurred back in the highly emotional days of the First World War. A rumour had spread through central Mississippi that the Germans were arousing the Negroes and inciting them to rebellion. Laurence Jones, the man who was about to be lynched, was, as I have already said, a Negro himself and was accused of helping to arouse his race to insurrection. A group of white men-pausing outside the church-had heard Laurence Jones shouting to his congregation: "Life is a battle in which every Negro must gird on his armour and fight to survive and succeed." <"Fight!" "Armour!" Enough! Galloping off into the night, these excited young men recruited a mob, returned to the church, put a rope round the preacher, dragged him for a mile up the road, stood him on a heap of faggots, lighted matches, and were ready to hang him and burn him at the same time, when someone shouted: "Let's make the blankety-blank-blank talk before he burns. Speech! Speech!" <Laurence Jones, standing on the faggots, spoke with a rope around his neck, spoke for his life and his cause. He had been graduated from the University of Iowa in 1907. His sterling character, his scholarship and his musical ability had made him popular with both the students and the faculty. Upon graduation, he had turned down the offer of a hotel man to set him up in business, and had turned down the offer of a wealthy man to finance his musical education. Why? Because he was on fire with a vision. Reading the story of Booker T. Washington's life, he had been inspired to devote his own life to educating the poverty-stricken, illiterate members of his race. So he went to the most backward belt he could find in the South-a spot twenty-five miles south of Jackson, Mississippi. Pawning his watch for $1.65, he started his school in the open woods with a stump for a desk. Laurence Jones told these angry men who were waiting to lynch him of the struggle he had had to educate these unschooled boys and girls and to train them to be good farmers, mechanics, cooks, housekeepers. He told of the white men who had helped him in his struggle to establish Piney Woods Country School-white men who had given him land, lumber, and pigs, cows and money, to help him carry on his educational work. <When Laurence Jones was asked afterward if he didn't hate the men who had dragged him up the road to hang him and burn him, he replied that he was too busy with his cause to hate-too absorbed in something bigger than himself. "I have no time to quarrel," he said, "no time for regrets, and no man can force me to stoop low enough to hate him." <As Laurence Jones talked with sincere and moving eloquence as he pleaded, not for himself but his cause, the mob began to soften. Finally, an old Confederate veteran in the crowd said: "I believe this boy is telling the truth. I know the white men whose names he has mentioned. He is doing a fine work. We have made a mistake. We ought to help him instead of hang him." The Confederate veteran passed his hat through the crowd and raised a gift of fifty-two dollars and forty cents from the very men who had gathered there to hang the founder of Piney Woods Country School-the man who said: "I have no time to quarrel, no time for regrets, and no man can force me to stoop low enough to hate him." Should this have happened in the first place? No. But does that sound like "Nazi" behavior? To not only give a man the chance to speak just as you're about to kill him, but to then turn around help his "cause". Now if you're going to ignore that and declare that it still shows "racial bias" among Americans, I'd like to point out to that the biggest lynching in American history was never against niggers. It was against Italians. Done with the justification that it was "removing" foreign influence, and happening in response to the assassination of a notable police chief: https://archive.md/xVyym
>>2694 I'm not going to argue against anything stated here. I would just say that The New Order is obviously meant to be an exaggerated version of reality. Where the Naiz's are meant to be Super Villans, and the Super Science Jew Technology, might as well be magic, so I wouldn't consider it something to be taken too seriously. But at the same time, the game did go out of it's way to bring Jimi Hendrix into the story, for the sake of making a Nazi to Segregation comparison. So it's entirely fair to criticize it's execution of that. It's all just stuff I didn't bother to think too deeply about at the time. Funny enough, you could make the criticism that The New Order makes the Jews look bad when you consider they made all this world changing technology, and just didn't use any of it to improve the world for no reason.
>>2695 >It's all just stuff I didn't bother to think too deeply about at the time. No one really did. Another example of the game's subversive message flying over people's head was 2013's Bioshock Infinite: https://odysee.com/@AmericanKroganArchives:1/Bioshock.pt2:6?lid=1cca414ab524626208ec8c7ecd7224e9345573c3
>>2694 >Dale Carnegie's 1948 book How To Stop Worrying And Start Living I read that and how to win friends and influence people. Good books, are there any like those you recommend?
>>2716 >I read that and how to win friends and influence people. <Make sure you have the original copy published in '36. The biggest difference with the edition published since the 80's is that they removed the final segment about having a happy home life. >Good books, are there any like those you recommend? As far as people skill books? Which I have to admit that I fail at properly implementing half of the time. Or just good advice books? The other two attached PDFs are two that I always fall back on but I can also throw out there How to Have Confidence & Power in Dealing with People by Les Giblin, and practically anything by Og Mandino and John Maxwell. Darren Hardy's The Compound Effect is worth at least one read: https://vimeo.com/100328370 https://rumble.com/v4l8lhx-the-power-of-consistency-the-compound-effect-by-darren-hardy-full-audiobook.html Also give Jim Rohn a listen: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=jnBdNkkceZw
reading is for middle-brain losers
>>2747 Welcome to 8chan, chinless one.
>>2778 WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A BILLION DOLLARS WHILE FUCKING WHITE BITCHES
>>2693 >Muh pacifism >Dies like a bitch >Game portrays it as "heroic" >Just feel great because they portrayed Hendrix as some pothead faggot hippie that doesn't even help around That whole fucking sequence was as jarring as the "muh muricans are racis muffuga u as bad as the natzis" TNC was all like that, all of it, I hope Indiana Jones flops and Machine Games goes under since Microsoft is axing everything left and right.
>>2796 It's a shame since MachineGames used to be Starbreeze. The Riddick The Darkness games they made were good, but now everything has really gone down the drain.
>>2778 Tate was once a successful kickboxer, so he turned his chinlessness to his advantage since there was nothing to punch.
would you be a nigger for millions of dollars /vb/
I would fuck a nigger for free dollars. With a condom, I don't want her crime hole to make more crimers.
