Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus - NO MORE NAZIS [New Gameplay Trailer]

Are they making one of the choices from the previous game (who survives the first mission) into a single, canon choice? I picked the wrong guy!

Seems like they are going to stick with the two timelines you either get strung out Wyatt or bionic Fergus

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Thats exactly my point. This image of the nice friendly neighbor Nazi is seen too rarely.
That was btw the reason why Get Out was so successful.
The bad guys were nice people on the surface.
It was a much more effective display of racism than for example a stereotypical Nazi/racist alá American History X because it was a more realistic display of what everyday racists look like.
It was more realistic, even though it had weird stuff about brain transplants etc in it.




Do you think it would be wrong to discuss these issues in threads about new trailers for games which depict arabs or black people in stereotypical ways?

Do you disagree with my criticism or do you just not want to hear it here?
Just because I am pointing out some problems doesn't mean I think that makes the game bad or that I want the game to change its ways.
I just think its kinda important to point it out.
Personally I actually think gory revenge porn slaughtering Nazis like Wolfenstein or Inglorious Basterds is pretty cool. I enjoy it a lot even though the image of Nazis it instills in people might actually be harmful

I dont disagree with you, I just think what you brought up is a complex topic in itself which deserves to have a thread dedicated to it(either here or OT side) where it can be discussed freely unshackled from a Wolfenstein 2 thread.

Matter of fact I actually recommend you make a thread about it because how the media portrays Nazis is something that absolutely should be discussed in light of current U.S and global affairs.

I loved The New Order, game took me completely by surprise when I bought it during a Holiday PSN sale. I was planning on waiting to play this one, but man that trailer was amazing. I might just have to get this Day One.
 
I think we had pretty much settled on

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus |OT| So Much For The Tolerant Left

Buy since I'm still bitter that "The Man In Castle Wolfenstein" didn't get picked for TNO that would be fine too considering that it's in America now.

Lol what a great trailer when did Wolfenstien get so crazy? I didn't play the first, is it like this?

No, Castle Wolfenstein on the Apple 2 was not this crazy. It has been like this intermittently since 1992 however, and The New Order was a particularly spicy meatball.
 
The the first one required to play this one? I know the New Order is a good game, just don't really have the time.

Oh yeah definitely this game brings a lot of plot point from the new order however if you don't have the time just watch some cut scenes or lets plays.

Yes it does. Why don't you play the First Order as if it was the "new game" and the Colossus one after? It's totally worth it, one of the best FPS experiences this gen.

I really wish Bethesda wasn't publishing this because it looks so viscerally satisfying.

The EZA discussion about how it might not be the right time for a Nazi related game to come out after the stuff that happened a while back.

EZA are being misrepresented here. The discussion was about CoD WWII and Wolfenstein and whether their marketing should/will change post Charlottesville. I think they actually definitively said staying the course was their best option.

Jesus, this looks fantastic. Humor is on point too.

I need to ger The New Order soon, I'll make it a priority after watching this.
 
I wonder if the power suit will give us some kind of special abilities. Caroline was kicking ass with it in the first game.
Judging by the trailer BJ can move faster, drop from great heights without withstanding any damage, jump higher, take more damage, and burst through walls
