Besides that, the executable does not work (IDK if it´s because of Win10). Did everything that people suggest on the forums, but no dice. Anyway, great job, hope I can play it soon...
Gggmanlives, Thanks for highlighting this mod. I am a huge Wolfenstein junkie, and used to play RTCW incessantly when I was younger and just getting into FPS games. I used to watch my dad play Wolfenstein 3D all the time when I was younger, and this mod looks like it takes the best of both worlds and mashes them up beautifully. I look forward to trying it out!
This has to be one of the best total conversions ive played for any game. SUPER impressive. I will also say, this is by far my favorite wolfenstein title to date.
I cant believe this has been sitting under my nose for god knows how long and I have never given it a try. Its a fullblown game in its own right! Fantastic stuff!
This looks great. I love playing old FPS but I rarely feel compelled to check out new one,s/mods, especially ones I have no nostalgia for (whether from playing back in the day, or hearing about and wanting to play but never getting around to). This looks like an exception to the rule. Looks really well done. Thanks for the review, as always!
I just keep watching your videos and finding all of these wonderful mods of old school shooters I played as a kid. In the words of DJ Khaled: AND ANOTHER ONE!
It's my favourite in the series, to be honest. I mean, I love me some RtCW too, but that game also suffers from Xatrix/Gray Matter's nasty tendency of making enemies devastating bullet-sponges, at least in the last third or so of the game. Wolf '09 (or, as I call it, Wolfenstein: Black Sun, a name that Ross Scott of Accursed Farms suggested it should've been called) doesn't have that problem, and is just a damn fun game. One of my favourite shooters, honestly.
Aye, you should. Granted, you need to drop a few files into the installation directory, and edit a file to fix both the FOV and the run bob. Even by default, the problem isn't as extreme as it is on 360, I think. On PC, the default FOV when walking is 80, and 60 when sprinting. The latter number is low, but was even lower on 360. Still, applying the fix is strongly recommended. As always, I recommend using PC Gaming Wiki with as many PC games as you can. It's such a tremendous help. But as for Wolfenstein: Black Sun in particular... pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Wolfenstein
Great mod, Wolfenstein games are amazing, each of them. BTW. In Wolfenstein Old Blood you also have paranormal things - zombies, occult rituals, legends, and that big monstrosity as a final boss.
I played this a few months ago. It is one of the best, if not the best, total conversions I have ever played. But it is its own game as he said. Really amazing work.
Oh my god, I will praise the makers all my life and promote this masterpiece. I had so much of a nostalgia rush, Medal of Honor and Wolfeinstein mostly. The colors, the maps and missions, everything is so old school in the best possible way. The creators really love these games, even the sounds come from the upper mentioned games. And the graphics are really unbelievable. At some points I tought I'm watching a 2005 game, wich is not small thing to say
Holy shit I remember playing this a couple of years back, and this game just looks so much better then it did then, its like night and day. I can hardly tell its the same mod at this point
I must admit: yeah. The paranormal parts made the series so cool and I wish there was more of this in the mod. But nevertheless: This is the best mod out there for GZDoom and absolutly a must play. Sry, this point is not debatable.
This mod looks INCREDIBLE! I'm definitely picking this up and donate to the development team because you know what they deserve it. Plus I want to give my money to those who make games, mods or not, that I want to play. Like old school FPS games such as this!
When I was a kid, my dad would play doom and wolfenstein 3d religiously. I started getting into them when I was about 7 or 8, much to my mom's disappointment. It's a good breath of fresh air to see these games combined.
For me best fps series to date, i love every part of it - from 3D to New Colossus. Can't wait for Wolfenstein Youngblood next year. And definitely i must check out this mod.
I like tno. I like the old blood even more (except that first part with all the climbing). I couldn't even get into the new collosus. I had to have spent 3 hours without a single ounce of fun before I realized I had wasted a long part of my day.
looks fucking awesome considering the engine in use!! thanks, once again, for highlighting a game i was completely unaware of!! it's so exciting to see so many people looking back at the old shooters for inspiration...hopefully this creativity spawns more cool games. I'd really like to see someone do something with Blood 2 in this engine...i fucking love Blood 2...
If i recall, BoA is a "reboot" of a series of mods called Wolfendoom, which were mostly Wolfenstein 3D based fan mapsets for Doom. In fact, some of your footage even showed an NPC that's a reference to the author of those Wolfendoom wads.
Well, it's something between all of it: BoA was inspired by Medal of Honor, by WolfenDoom and by Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Even some classic mechanics are implemented, taken directly from Wolfenstein 3D.
I need this! :D :O And that flaming enemy death animation straight from Blood is simply awesome :D (BTW so sad what happend to Wolfenstein 2009. I loved that game)
BoA is one of the reasons why next Wolfenstein games should return to it's roots and go with direction that BoA took. I do appreciate that devs brought back villains from Wolfenstein 3D into BoA and made them more dangerous and threating, I always thought they were the part of franchise aside BJ and Mecha-Hitler. It wouldn't be Wolfenstein without them like if the Doom was without iconic demons.
Thank you for your review - and thanks to the modders! This mod...this GAME is a gem! Perfectly recreates the fell of those MOHs from the nineties - combined with Wolfenstein and Doom!
FOOK no seriously - I played numerous mods for various games but Blade of Agony is something else. Fresh, wonderful, job well done. I love polished products made with care by not-insane modders. Everyone knows modders are prone to insanity but luckly - not those responsible for BoA...
Definitely an impressive mod. It also extends upon the regular functionality of GZDoom as far as I know, or at least it had some features like shadowmaps before they were publicly released. The stealth is pretty impressive, and Chapter Two also solves a lot of gameplay issues from Chapter One for those who have bad memories. In any case, it's a great game, go play it right now.
4:25 - The graphics in this area look fucking amazing and as whole the game looks great for a largely one man project. Hopefully a publisher will let this guy make an original title cause this game is proof of his skill.
HOLY FUCK YES I WALKED THROUGH A GREY DOOR WHEN I JUST SAID GREY DOORS ARE LOCKED LMAO RITE
You can always access my door no matter the color, sweetheart ;)
Did you know you walked through a gray door when you just said gray doors are locked?
He got all the keys now,run!!!

Blade of agony uses a lot of cod1 and mohAA assets.

It's a shame that every video on UA-cam that shows gameplay of it now has less that 5000 views.

You know a modder has talent when he can make the levels look mid-late 2000s on the Doom Engine.
Seriously. I'm blown away by what they've been able to squeeze out of the Doom engine, here.
IDK how much torm has updated it but it used to have terrible performance due to unnecessary detail, but it looked ok so *shrug*
If you think this is good, then check out total chaos. I shit you not it looks like something an experienced person with the source engine would make.
Just had a look, absolutely amazing.
Thanks, we did our best :)
Thanks a lot for the kind review, this makes us developers very proud!
Dayum yall are incredible! I'm downloading this asap,ty for the hard work and dedication!
You guys deserve a shitload of awards for your work!
The game is AWESOME, but I´m not the only one who´s been facing trouble to run it... the famigerated "OpenGL" and "Parsing" errors.

I hope you make a video on it :D
5:50 "If a door is gray, it's inaccessible"
*proceeds to open gray door*
Lol
I thought he was colorblind.
I think he picked up the key nearby.
Hemang Chauhan the door didnt have any colored lock/handle so i dont think that key was for that door
Yeah. Gggmanlives has trouble with what you can and can't do with doors. He did the same thing in the Friday the 13th game.
"But if it's gray it's inaccessible" *opens gray door*
Yeah, actually the wooden doors that are inaccessible are greyed out.
Wrong shade of gray! :-)
How many shades of gray are there supposed to be!?
50
Of course not. It's just 2.
Wow, this needs to be released as it's own standalone game. This is on the level of Ion Maiden.
It's beyond Ion Maiden.
Arel R ion maiden is its own game, it wasn’t a mod (I think?)
@Arel R,
Whoa whoa... Easy tiger!
@@Grimmations No, a full game by 3D realms.
Arel R Ion Maiden has really good visuals, level design and is balanced. Blade of Agony is good but unfair in some sections.
(sorry for my english)
I think this is seriously my favorite channel on UA-cam. You are a breathe of fresh air to all of us old school grognard fps fans.
Love that he described the bosses as "Thicc"
2:36 Gggman, you lie! He obviously has a MP44-
2:37 **Drops a MP40** wat
As we all know, guns are just Pokemon.
@Ascended Life Form lol, is that how it works?
What? MASCHINEPISTOLE 40 is evolving!
MP 40 & MP 44 are totally two different guns
Yea he also said kar98 even tho it's a gewehr 43

Really enjoy your mod reviews. Just finished HL Echos today after seeing your review. I will give Blade of Agony a try!
I just realized that this is pretty much the best and most reliable mod review channel on youtube
>feels like they just made the biggest map possible
yep thats terminator alright
5:51 "But if it's gray it's inaccessible."
He says as he accesses the gray door.
my jaw kind of hit the floor when you finally said this was a Doom Mod. just.. wow. really nice work
Nothing pleases more than getting a new gggman video notification
oof
This has to be one of the best total conversions ive played for any game. SUPER impressive. I will also say, this is by far my favorite wolfenstein title to date.
This is one of the most impressive mods I've ever seen.
I cant believe this has been sitting under my nose for god knows how long and I have never given it a try. Its a fullblown game in its own right! Fantastic stuff!
One of the best Doom2 Mods ive ever played. It doesnt even feel like a mod. Its a fucking full grown Wolfensteein Game. And an awesome at that.
Hey, they just released chapter 3 one hour ago. Funny, cause I was just rewatching all of your Wolfenstein videos, the timing couldn't be better.
This looks great. I love playing old FPS but I rarely feel compelled to check out new one,s/mods, especially ones I have no nostalgia for (whether from playing back in the day, or hearing about and wanting to play but never getting around to).

Confession time
I liked Wolfenstein 09
Me too.
It's my favourite in the series, to be honest. I mean, I love me some RtCW too, but that game also suffers from Xatrix/Gray Matter's nasty tendency of making enemies devastating bullet-sponges, at least in the last third or so of the game. Wolf '09 (or, as I call it, Wolfenstein: Black Sun, a name that Ross Scott of Accursed Farms suggested it should've been called) doesn't have that problem, and is just a damn fun game. One of my favourite shooters, honestly.
The weird run bob and FOV on 360 made me feel queasy. Only FPS to ever do that. I reckon I should replay it on PC.
Aye, you should. Granted, you need to drop a few files into the installation directory, and edit a file to fix both the FOV and the run bob. Even by default, the problem isn't as extreme as it is on 360, I think. On PC, the default FOV when walking is 80, and 60 when sprinting. The latter number is low, but was even lower on 360. Still, applying the fix is strongly recommended.

pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Wolfenstein
Fantastic game. Even for something running off the doom 3 engine. I just don't like the cover base it has. Slows the pace down way too much
Wow! looks amazing for the Doom engine :O
Great mod, Wolfenstein games are amazing, each of them.
BTW. In Wolfenstein Old Blood you also have paranormal things - zombies, occult rituals, legends, and that big monstrosity as a final boss.

Nice to see a channel given mods like this some love if not i would never of know about this mod, so thanks GGman.
Holy shit. It looks like a mix of modern gameplay and graphics with old school FPS. The sprite work looks fucking amazing as well.
Love this channel so much

OH SHITE, YES!! Finally, I was waiting for you to review this mod for a long time
Holy shit I remember playing this a couple of years back, and this game just looks so much better then it did then, its like night and day. I can hardly tell its the same mod at this point
We improved a lot since the first beta release of Chapter 1 and the changes will be even more drastical when we release Chapter 3.
This looks incredible. Some very talented people involved in this project. I need to play this.
I must admit: yeah. The paranormal parts made the series so cool and I wish there was more of this in the mod. But nevertheless: This is the best mod out there for GZDoom and absolutly a must play. Sry, this point is not debatable.
Just finished the Ashes 2063 mods (1&2), it was quite unique. I’ll give a try to Blades of Agony !
This mod looks INCREDIBLE! I'm definitely picking this up and donate to the development team because you know what they deserve it. Plus I want to give my money to those who make games, mods or not, that I want to play. Like old school FPS games such as this!

For me best fps series to date, i love every part of it - from 3D to New Colossus. Can't wait for Wolfenstein Youngblood next year. And definitely i must check out this mod.
One thing for sure...You can't stop Doom mods for keepin' coming!
this 'mod' is better than anything activision has ever produced
I'm impressed, like really impressed.
3:05 seriously look at that!
Thanks man, for highlighting another great mod to try.
You say New Order etc divided fans a fair bit... I'm surprised to hear that! I thought New Order was pretty universally liked. _I_ loved it.
The story was bullshit just like the new colussus' story was also shit.
I loved new order and old blood but new colossus was a slap in the face and i really hope the sequel doesn't go that route
New Order and Old Blood are great but New Colossus...it's S***.
cloudtx
TNO's story was top quality, dunno what you're on about.
I like tno. I like the old blood even more (except that first part with all the climbing). I couldn't even get into the new collosus. I had to have spent 3 hours without a single ounce of fun before I realized I had wasted a long part of my day.
How did I not know of this work of art. Thanks sonny jim, my nights full.
I'm on time! Thanks for all your great work sonny jim! Have a good one legend!
That flamethrower scream at 2:50 is the same scream from Crusader No Remorse when enemies are on fire
i cant wait to download this thanks for linking it
This mod looks sweet. I'll definitely check it out, so thanks for the heads up.
One my my favorite mods being reviewed by one my favorite youtubers :D
My dad loves Wolfenstein Return to Castle and overall this theme, I gotta show it to him, thank you sir keep up the good work! :D
This mod looks fucking fantastic, definitely a must play for old school fans of all the games you see spritework from. I'm getting this asap!
Also, when is the final update? Is that chapter 3? I'm confused?
This looks awesome! I would of missed out on this mod/game, if it wasn't for your channel. Thanks!
Those enemies look so adorable, their proportions make them look like smurfs.
I just discovered this channel and I must say it’s amazing.
Thank you for releasing a video on my birthday
Damn the lighting in this game is really expressive. Love it.
I wish game makers would make modern games like this; arcade-y FPSes are awesome--that spritework is AWESOME
You know it's something good when the thumbnail has a kid giving the thumbs up 👍
looks fucking awesome considering the engine in use!! thanks, once again, for highlighting a game i was completely unaware of!! it's so exciting to see so many people looking back at the old shooters for inspiration...hopefully this creativity spawns more cool games.

Cant wait to give it a try! Again another wonderful video from triple G. Hell yes!

Just finished the first level. Atmosphere and gameplay are 10 outta 10. It's all very impressive
Best's Doom and Wolfenstein mod.
Change my mind.
I simply can't, comrade.
Brutal Wolfenstein is also pretty good, ya dig?
@@Gggmanlives yup
Appreciate :) Hope to make a new release pretty soon.
It's worth mentioning that John Romero himself praised this; he said that it's "one of the best mods for Doom"
This looks absolutely beautiful, holy shit. honestly i kind of want to see more new stuff on the doom engine if it can look this good
The creator of this mod is a GENIUS.
Woah! If you showed it to me without saying it's on doom engine I would seriously thought that's a build engine. Modders did a bloody good job!
Holy fuck, thanks for reviewing this. I would've never found out about this. Wow. I'm gonna check it out and see if I can donate.
1:48 - stop the video, I'm sold!
Man I would pay money for an actual standalone release of this. Looks so damn good!
Damn, son. This looks so damn awesome.
who needs a new wolfensteen game when you have this
This is probably much better than Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. Alright, that didn't put the bar very high, but this TC looks amazing.
Dude i would pay for this on steam ... it looks amazing

And that flaming enemy death animation straight from Blood is simply awesome :D

BoA is one of the reasons why next Wolfenstein games should return to it's roots and go with direction that BoA took. I do appreciate that devs brought back villains from Wolfenstein 3D into BoA and made them more dangerous and threating, I always thought they were the part of franchise aside BJ and Mecha-Hitler. It wouldn't be Wolfenstein without them like if the Doom was without iconic demons.
Glad you finally took a look at this.
