Old Blood was what Wolfenstein was supposed to be. I was my favorite of the three titles. Definitely a wink and a nod to Return to Castle Wolfenstein 👍

I love the implication that BJ stormed Deathshead's compound with a gaping pipe wound in his right thigh

It's actually crazy how history repeated itself. Wolfenstein 3d pretty much started the FPS genre, but Doom came after that and got all the credit. Now the New Order revived the FPS genre and brought it back to its roots, but then Doom (2016) comes out after it and gets all the credit. Does that mean that Id's new game will be a Quake one that has revolutionary graphics and multiplayer? I hope so ;)

Fun fact, after you kill Jägers dog, if you turn around and follow Jäger through the room he retreats to, you can reacquire all of your weapons

You know that 90% of the stealth in that intro section is optional right? You can instakill powered down super soldiers with the pipe, grab their guns, fire at the connecting wire of the others, and they'll die quite easily. So you can do a mostly guns blazing way very easily. Guess most people missed that way of doing it.

Luckily that opening stealth section goes by muuuuch faster on replay because you know exactly what to do.

Every time I hear “castle Wolfenstein” I expect lightning to sound like that one joke from Young Frankenstein

Old Blood is soo good, I just wish it was a bit longer.

BTW you can also make the nightmare in the asylum and in the Castle

I LOVE how in this game german actually speaks german, even in english dubbing. I'm so fed up with how in many games two residents of the same non-english country speak in english, but in this forced accent, to show how they are "native" (looking at you Far Cry 6).
This moment when Helga recognises us as a spy, she speaks to her colleague in german, but when she wants to include BJ in conversation, she switches to english. Realistic

I also love how you can most of the areas you’ll play through in the opening cutscene. The way Machine Games made use of their setting and assets is brilliant—especially those you visit multiple times.

I must be the only person who's insane xD I actually really like the stealth mission across the prison block. I love the atmosphere, the fact that you have to hide from the super soldiers, and the entire area design itself is top notch imho, it's really enjoyable

11:37 Frankfurt is actually a city in Germany, and the people there are called Frankfurter.. exactly the same as the sausage, which makes the "hot dog" joke even more funny.

I have to say that The Old Blood was not what I expected. It remind me of simpler times, you boot up a game and just have a fun time without bullshit. So I kinda prefer it being something I wasn't expecting. If it was just what I wanted it to be then I wouldn't remember it as fondly as I do now.

Old Blood is basically a huge homage to Return to Castle Wolfenstein. The comparisons are similar: I the beginning you get captured and you have to escape the Castle, but Agent One doesn't get so lucky. You arrive at the village to meet the resistance fighters. Later the supernatural kicks in with the ,,Nasties" being reanimated by the essence and Helga being interested into bringing back an ancient monstrosity to life, but instead killing her off not being able to control it. Finished off by a boss fight against an resurrected monster to prevent it being released to the world

The reason you can't aim with the scope is that BJ's noodle arms can't keep the crosshair in the center of the screen.

"But bj misses all his shots like he was playing on a controller" that final boss on I am death incarnate was rough. Hitting its    mouth while it headbangs around all the time.

Just finished the game! It was very good and I'm glad I played it! On to the next one! Thanks for recommending it

I love the Ol Blood because it tips the hat to Return to Castle Wolfenstein which is one of the most Badass shooters around.

The Cable Car mission is dangerously close the escape from the Castle in RTCW and I was surprised by how much it got me

31:27 Honestly, what BJ says after this event actually got to me, choked me up a little.
"I was a kid, we had a monster in our basement. My father said if I done wrong it’d creep out at night and come for me. I tried to do no wrong. But the monster came all the same."  
Maybe it's because i've experienced some things or maybe it appeals to the true human nature, either way it got to me and i think it's one of BJ's best quotes.
