I love how this sequence starts showing BJ's innocent side by showing his childhood relationship, then gets harsh with your average beater dad, softens a bit with his father having a tiny spec of good within, saying monsters only chase the evildoers, and ends with BJ trying not to choke talking to the very monster.
Its not really a tiny spec of good when hes using a lie to manipulate his son into doing what he calls "good" - the guy was a wife-and-child-beating, racist P.O.S with very low morals, so his idea of "goodness" would not be worth following, especially for a child.
10:22....I laughed so hard at this. The way BJ sidesteps so quick, the father's old slow mind can't catch up and he fires blind, then makes a pointless forward attack with the butt of the shotgun still thinking BJ is in front of him. His mind finally catches up a few seconds later, all too late to realise where BJ is and he gets his arm hacked off 🤣🤣
@@username3788 yeah but it’s good to think he has aged and he can’t keep up lol, kinda ruins the immersive experience to think in a technical perspective of AI Not saying your wrong tho
I think they assumed everyone would just immediately attack, I didn't even know that the dad had any AI because as soon as the cutscene was over when I was playing I blasted him straight into the next cutscene.
10:01 I feel Billy telling his father I'm your son when being held at gunpoint by his father shows despite everything he did he trying to get him to see reason and thought this could be his last moment to see Reason as sometimes you want things to work with a parent and hope they can see reason even know they are to far gone to be helped or here what you say
"Ask anyone around these parts, Blazkowicz is a name of renown and respect." - This line is even worse when you remember how the Nazis viewed Polish people. His father didn't have a place in their world either; they'd just come for him later.
The lessons his father tried to instill in him were the correct ones - fight for what is yours, face your problems head on - but his method of trying to teach those lessons was completely wrong.
@@dominickstewart433 me sorprende que gente en estos comentarios quieran convencernos de que el padre de BJ es un buen padre, golpeaba a su mujer, a su hijo, el mismo dice que se casó con una judia por el dinero y cuando los nazis ganaron vendió a su esposa a los nazis (junto a varios vecinos, creo que incluyendo a los Afro americanos también) no, no era una buena persona, era un monstruo. Solo tenia poder sobre BJ porque era un niño y el creció, vio al monstruo e hizo lo mejor que se puede hacer con un monstruo que no solo no se arrepiente, sino que se siente orgulloso de todo lo que consiguió siéndolo y aun teniendo la arrogancia de querer entregar a su hijo o matarlo con sus propias manos...
Well the point I think of that scene is to show the father as a human who is evil as opposed to an evil entity in of himself, the tragedy of BJ's childhood is that he was abused. we often distance ourselves from the understanding that Nazis, fascists, abusers, KKKers, etc are bad people not just evil sprouted from the ground so its a very compelling narrative point to say "This man was human and he deserved what he got" as opposed to "heres a one dimensional character to hate that you'll kill"
@@cazicazi1940Ideology always destroys Family lifestyle,no matter what it will be Nazism,Communism or Fascism... BJ's dad was good parent,but he was obsessed with ideological ideas,for example Anti-Semitic Ideologies (like Jews are dirty,Niggas are better to be slaves or they destroy our generation) was even spreaded in Ancient Egypt,during American Civil war and after world war 1,even Adolf Hitler was obsessed with this ideas.Germany was full of anti-semitism which caused Nazism,but Fascism was quite different from Hitler's National Socialism...
What really screwed me up was "if you do no wrong, no monsters will come after you." I don't think B.J. expected his own father to become one of the monsters.
Since his dad forced william to kill his own dog, i have got to say, i feel absolutely no sympathy or pity for the dad, william literally gone full on john wick on him
True, the most efficient way of killing Blazkowicz, would have to bomb the whole house area with bombs until there is no single thing alive on it anymore, turning Blazkowicz to dust, with a very minimal survival chance. But they didn't because of their arrogance. They wanted to capture him alive. Because they wanted to trial him and then publicly execute him, by beheading him with a sword.
The brutal thing is that he is probably still alive. Since and arm cut off and a hatchet piercing his lung would not kill him rigth away. The hit on the ground will probably kill him.
The fact that's BJ's dad just gives me the same vibes that baby boomers do nowadays makes this all that much funnier. This is one of the few UA-cam comments I've read recently that made me laugh out loud.
The scene when BJ and his dad go down to the basement looking for the "monsters" has always stuck with me. It's one of the few, if not the only, instance where his dad is not a completely unlikeable character. On top of that, and I have no idea if it's deliberate or not, the little look his dad gives him when he asks "can I keep the gun" makes it seem like, for a moment, there's some degree of bonding there. As if BJ showing his interest in a gun was something that made him proud. I dunno. The game has great basic gameplay, but the addition of such a well-crafted story adds a lot to a game that's otherwise just about blasting Nazis to the moon and back.
According to the wiki,that basement scene wasn’t out of the kindness of his heart,it was because he knew he would shut up and quit making noise at night
@@Sawyer14 @Old Machines the right way i my dad with me about standing up to monsters was when we watch power rangers early in the morning and pretended to be scared but always knew i was never going to be scared when he knew he was there to mentor me like a real parent would as a true father would set morals and put their son on the right path and advice theme into doing what right
Yeah,the basement part wasn’t out of the kindness of his heart,he admits to beating him because he made noise at night,the reason he did that was because he just wanted his son to quit making noise at night
I was expecting Rip to just give up the moment Billy pressed his forehead on the barrel. But the senile fool pulled the trigger without hesitation. He was willing to sell his wife and son for the sake of luxury and comfort. That's no father, that's an obstacle. Also Billie with with the burn: "I'd be rotting in a grave and still be a better father than you."
This part of the game was just sad. Absolutely sad. coming fresh from the study of Biopower (basically, how to genetically create the most perfect human being, and to discard everything else), seeing this just made me start sobbing. Because this is exactly the mindset that these people had, and still have.
"They're gonna walk all over you 'till there's nothing left." Best use of dramatic irony I've ever seen in a video game. You know cause of the whole Nazis taking over thing.
William was a innocent kid who lost his gentleness and became a cold hearted guy You can see when his father pointed a double barrel shotgun point blank in him and ready to fire He didn't even flinch
I wouldn't say he became cold-hearted, he still shows empathy for the people he's close with, but the only people that make him look cold-hearted is his father and the nazis. And when soldiers go to war, their first kill traumatizes them, but the more they kill their enemies they will overcome their fear of death or anyone walking all over them
At that point Bj had fought an entire army of nazis and their mechanical creations, survived the zombie apocalypse, and took a grenade to the face. No silly shotgun is scaring him
10:03 I felt that. To me, hearing him get choked up at the very idea that his own father is pointing a gun at him is just so surreal. As if, even to Blazko there are some things that can just be too messed up. Superb voice acting.
Honestly, that kill was a MASSIVE missed opportunity. Since it was gonna be a trap for William anyway and this guy was set up as THE most personally evil guy in the game, it would have been SO much more effective if the player is given full control to cathartically beat/torture this evil bastard to death and THEN reveal the twist that it was a trap and you just bought the Nazis more time with your vengeance.
Would be great twist if the scenerio or enemies showed up change based on how long you beat up B.J dad. You beat him too long, the fight happens as it is. You beat him to fast and notice the trap early, you got a chance to leave the house but your motorcycle is destroy in front of your face and you have to fight the entire squads of infantry and Panzerhunds sent to beat you down.
I don’t think it would make sense for him to brutalize his own dad. Yeah it was fucked up what he did but in the end he’s still his father and he didn’t want to kill him. Takes a bigger man to let something go even if it’s fucked up. He defended himself at that moment
6:20 gotta be honest: when playing through this level for the first time I mistook B.J.'s dad for a pure hallucination. Like a manifestation of his Childhood Trauma. But I guess that was what made killing him all the more satisfying. EDIT: HOLY SHIT! OVER 350 LIKES!! That's more than any over comment I ever posted.
I like how there is some good in those traumatic memories such as the basement scene, it makes an abusive relationship more realistic, because in there is moments of genuine good, it’s just not worth the bad, and what’s worse is you may be stuck clinging onto terrible people just to see those few good moments. Good writing
This scene was honestly gut-wrenching. You see the flashback with Billy's parents and knew Billy's dad was a prick. But here I wondered if Billy's father was still alive after everything that has happened. Then you find out that not only is he, but that he sold his own wife and son out to the enemy. Truly tragic.
The only bad thing about this game is that the writers having shitty humor and always forced something funny in some scenes which always ruins it, the previous game didn't have that forced haha parts and knew how to balance the comedy and seriousness
These are some of my favorite games, but the lighting was pretty bad in these games. There were times where there'd be a fog, or a dimly lit room or if it was a metallic room, the light would reflect off everything and basically, you couldn't see anything. I died way too many unnecessary deaths because I couldn't see the enemies in the lights.
Too bad the ending kinda shit the bed by being way too sudden, and to top that off there still hasn't been an actual conclusion. The biggest problem with it was that so much of the story felt pointless.
"Daddy, I'm your son." I don't think anyone will read this but I've had a fight with my father where he pointed a gun at my head. He was piss drunk and we'd already swapped hands over him shoving my mother. I don't have any point to make other than that part made me weep tears. I wish I could have told my Daddy that when that happened to me. That's what i wanted to say. But he was too drunk.
@Android / Dude, the guy had his dad point a gun at him. You don't suddenly turn into Rambo under those circumstances. This is real life. You don't know this guy, and you don't know his dad so saying "you would have died there just to prove a point" as if the problem is his lack of initiative is arrogant and extremely messed up.
@Android / I don't care if it matters to you or not. That was never the discussion. And there is a wrong decision here. and thats commiting suicide by your own father. All that would accomplish is one guy dead, his dad in jail, and their family worse off than before.
@Android / What is that even supposed to mean? The family is BETTER with OP dead and the dad in jail, than they would be with the dad being an alcoholic? That's somehow both extremely optimistic and pessimistic at the same time.
@Android / Because your comment was actually horrible, and OP doesn't need to read that. If you can't process emotions, thats your deal, but most people aren't the same way. You're applying cold lizatd brain logic to an emotional issue.
@@alixir3010 that would be legal, because every regime like nazism "cleans up" everyone who is disagree. Was it right to kill him? Yes. Was it legal? No

The lesson here is always inspire your children to fight their own battles, but never terrorize them into doing so, for you never know if your terror will come knocking back on your own door one day.
@@360Nomad Yet the books they burned was atheistic literature or blasphemous screeds against Christ. I'm not saying they are perfect but its certainly better than our current libertine values towards God today.
The father, he could have been a good father, was trying to teach the boy to stand up for himself in some scenes and comforting him in his own way in other scenes, but his methods were so extreme that the point was lost in the abuse, the line between abuse and discipline is thin
if you read the notes around, the father also sold out all his best friends and business partners, people who supported him when they thought he was down, but were later tired of his bulshit because he was mooching off them and failing to do his part of the work. When they got tired of his shit and wanted nothing to do with him cause of his incompetence and abuse, he later false reported them to the nazi's to take them (and most likely their entire families) out of the equation and get everything in their absence.
love this game so much it has everything on it. it can be comedic, serious, scary, emotional and the dialogues and performance of the VA's are just quality and its story is so good
This and after the courtroom shootout really made me feel for BJ. Him saying he cant do it anymore and that he wants to see his kids really hit me hard
Yuri in MW3 and Nick Reyes in Infinite Warfare killed Overlord in MW1 and MW2 as an act of revenge. (I know this would get controversial but I meant their classical roles.)
I don't think the basement scene is proof of goodness, there's a reason it's the last scene before they confront each other. His dad was teaching him a lesson, as he says later "I tried my damndest to fix you", we even get a few lines where he says Billy's a coward. By giving his son a gun, and telling him the monsters only appear because of his behavior, he's reinforcing his paranoia and fear. Billy was terrified of his father too, so it's safe to assume the only monster he dreamed about was him as well. The idea that he would confront the monster with a gun is even undercut by Billy himself, who kills the 'monster' with a knife.
He was hoping his dad would drop the gun the moment he stared directly at him. The moment BJ saw his dad pulled the hammer, he knew his dad was beyond saving. The way he said: "Daddy, I'm your son." Was a plea for Rip, not to make him do it. Even in his dying breath, Rip had nothing but scorn to his son.
Ok but not gonna lie, the monster in the basement scene was literally the ONLY time we see Mr Blazkowicz being a good dad. Wish he was more like that to his son instead of some abusive jerk
I think they made him too evil in this game. I wish they added more nuance to his character, scenes like that make us realize that every human has their good side, even if they’re horrible people in the end. I think many of us have had moments like that with our parents, I know I have more than a fair share of great, and awful memories with my own father so it hits home a little more with me, but the game decided to make him even more racist and paranoid and heartless in his old age. Such a shame.

After admitting he sold out B.J's Mom to death camps, is this really murder or revenge on B.J's part?
you can stil murder someone out of revenge doesnt make it any less
More like self defense with extreme prejudice. BJ didn't make a move on him until his father put a gun to his head. If anything, this shows how BJ's dad instilled the foundations of his own eventual asswhooping in his child.
Revenge doesnt change it, it's still murder. Although he had it coming to him
Is not revenge
BJ's dad become in another enemy
Just another nazi to kill, nothing less
Murder is definined as a human killing another human so regardless if it was justified or not murder is murder.

So BJ became the Monster in his life.
@@dac314 exactly
Its not really a tiny spec of good when hes using a lie to manipulate his son into doing what he calls "good" - the guy was a wife-and-child-beating, racist P.O.S with very low morals, so his idea of "goodness" would not be worth following, especially for a child.
why did he name his kid blow job?
They did a good job at making the dad a really conflicting character, I didn't know how to feel at his death
10:22....I laughed so hard at this. The way BJ sidesteps so quick, the father's old slow mind can't catch up and he fires blind, then makes a pointless forward attack with the butt of the shotgun still thinking BJ is in front of him. His mind finally catches up a few seconds later, all too late to realise where BJ is and he gets his arm hacked off 🤣🤣
I mean him trying to melee him was just the bad AI at that point instead of a cutscene
@@username3788 yeah but it’s good to think he has aged and he can’t keep up lol, kinda ruins the immersive experience to think in a technical perspective of AI
Not saying your wrong tho
I liked that it showed that his father had only screamed, he had such a fragile family that he was now nothing more than a common enemy.
Probably needs glasses.
I think they assumed everyone would just immediately attack, I didn't even know that the dad had any AI because as soon as the cutscene was over when I was playing I blasted him straight into the next cutscene.
After all, little Billy was right. Monsters finally came and took his mom with the help of another monster - his dad.
That’s one way of putting it
10:01 I feel Billy telling his father I'm your son when being held at gunpoint by his father shows despite everything he did he trying to get him to see reason and thought this could be his last moment to see Reason as sometimes you want things to work with a parent and hope they can see reason even know they are to far gone to be helped or here what you say

The lessons his father tried to instill in him were the correct ones - fight for what is yours, face your problems head on - but his method of trying to teach those lessons was completely wrong.

Well the point I think of that scene is to show the father as a human who is evil as opposed to an evil entity in of himself, the tragedy of BJ's childhood is that he was abused. we often distance ourselves from the understanding that Nazis, fascists, abusers, KKKers, etc are bad people not just evil sprouted from the ground so its a very compelling narrative point to say "This man was human and he deserved what he got" as opposed to "heres a one dimensional character to hate that you'll kill"

What really screwed me up was "if you do no wrong, no monsters will come after you."

I’m pretty sure it was the fact that he was a nazi,that’s why he killed him like that,also,the fucker was pointing a shotgun at his head

@@JRMAV1 o ye i forgot about that
why even pick up the house? why not just level the damn thing with missiles or something? he'd never see it coming
True, the most efficient way of killing Blazkowicz, would have to bomb the whole house area with bombs until there is no single thing alive on it anymore, turning Blazkowicz to dust, with a very minimal survival chance.
But they didn't because of their arrogance. They wanted to capture him alive. Because they wanted to trial him and then publicly execute him, by beheading him with a sword.
They wanted to capture not kill him
cause nazis are showboaty as hell and want the publicity of killing him on tv
They wanted to capture him
So they could film his execution. I agree, not smart. Especially knowing you can just film the house being blown up.
11:20 I like how you can see the fathers corpse rolling down the house
The brutal thing is that he is probably still alive. Since and arm cut off and a hatchet piercing his lung would not kill him rigth away. The hit on the ground will probably kill him.

The fact that's BJ's dad just gives me the same vibes that baby boomers do nowadays makes this all that much funnier. This is one of the few UA-cam comments I've read recently that made me laugh out loud.
The scene when BJ and his dad go down to the basement looking for the "monsters" has always stuck with me. It's one of the few, if not the only, instance where his dad is not a completely unlikeable character. On top of that, and I have no idea if it's deliberate or not, the little look his dad gives him when he asks "can I keep the gun" makes it seem like, for a moment, there's some degree of bonding there. As if BJ showing his interest in a gun was something that made him proud. I dunno.
The game has great basic gameplay, but the addition of such a well-crafted story adds a lot to a game that's otherwise just about blasting Nazis to the moon and back.
According to the wiki,that basement scene wasn’t out of the kindness of his heart,it was because he knew he would shut up and quit making noise at night
@@Sawyer14 @Old Machines the right way i my dad with me about standing up to monsters was when we watch power rangers early in the morning and pretended to be scared but always knew i was never going to be scared when he knew he was there to mentor me like a real parent would as a true father would set morals and put their son on the right path and advice theme into doing what right

I was expecting Rip to just give up the moment Billy pressed his forehead on the barrel. But the senile fool pulled the trigger without hesitation. He was willing to sell his wife and son for the sake of luxury and comfort. That's no father, that's an obstacle.
Also Billie with with the burn: "I'd be rotting in a grave and still be a better father than you."
The first time I heard the line “Not a god damn thing” I got shivers up my spine
“I’ll be in the grave, rottin’ away, and I’ll STILL be a better daddy than you.” Goes insanely hard.

You can see when his father pointed a double barrel shotgun point blank in him and ready to fire
He didn't even flinch
I wouldn't say he became cold-hearted, he still shows empathy for the people he's close with, but the only people that make him look cold-hearted is his father and the nazis. And when soldiers go to war, their first kill traumatizes them, but the more they kill their enemies they will overcome their fear of death or anyone walking all over them
At that point Bj had fought an entire army of nazis and their mechanical creations, survived the zombie apocalypse, and took a grenade to the face. No silly shotgun is scaring him

Well said.
Would be great twist if the scenerio or enemies showed up change based on how long you beat up B.J dad.
You beat him too long, the fight happens as it is. You beat him to fast and notice the trap early, you got a chance to leave the house but your motorcycle is destroy in front of your face and you have to fight the entire squads of infantry and Panzerhunds sent to beat you down.
Basically how to build a racist day basterd.
Not massive
I don’t think it would make sense for him to brutalize his own dad. Yeah it was fucked up what he did but in the end he’s still his father and he didn’t want to kill him. Takes a bigger man to let something go even if it’s fucked up. He defended himself at that moment
6:20 gotta be honest: when playing through this level for the first time I mistook B.J.'s dad for a pure hallucination. Like a manifestation of his Childhood Trauma. But I guess that was what made killing him all the more satisfying.

Hello me
I like how there is some good in those traumatic memories such as the basement scene, it makes an abusive relationship more realistic, because in there is moments of genuine good, it’s just not worth the bad, and what’s worse is you may be stuck clinging onto terrible people just to see those few good moments. Good writing
3:40 that's probably the best thing he's done for his son
This scene was honestly gut-wrenching. You see the flashback with Billy's parents and knew Billy's dad was a prick. But here I wondered if Billy's father was still alive after everything that has happened. Then you find out that not only is he, but that he sold his own wife and son out to the enemy. Truly tragic.
This game was always under appreciated. Graphics, voice acting, story. All pretty solid compared to 90% of games the last 5 years
The only real issue I’ve encountered in the graphics having a stroke,but yes this is one of the best games I think I’ve ever played
The only bad thing about this game is that the writers having shitty humor and always forced something funny in some scenes which always ruins it, the previous game didn't have that forced haha parts and knew how to balance the comedy and seriousness
These are some of my favorite games, but the lighting was pretty bad in these games. There were times where there'd be a fog, or a dimly lit room or if it was a metallic room, the light would reflect off everything and basically, you couldn't see anything. I died way too many unnecessary deaths because I couldn't see the enemies in the lights.
The game had zero replayability for me. Cutscenes over gameplay is what disappointed me single handedly
Too bad the ending kinda shit the bed by being way too sudden, and to top that off there still hasn't been an actual conclusion. The biggest problem with it was that so much of the story felt pointless.
"Daddy, I'm your son."
I don't think anyone will read this but I've had a fight with my father where he pointed a gun at my head. He was piss drunk and we'd already swapped hands over him shoving my mother. I don't have any point to make other than that part made me weep tears. I wish I could have told my Daddy that when that happened to me. That's what i wanted to say. But he was too drunk.
What happen is the past. What you need to do is learned from it so you don’t repeat history.
@Android / Dude, the guy had his dad point a gun at him. You don't suddenly turn into Rambo under those circumstances. This is real life. You don't know this guy, and you don't know his dad so saying "you would have died there just to prove a point" as if the problem is his lack of initiative is arrogant and extremely messed up.
@Android / I don't care if it matters to you or not. That was never the discussion. And there is a wrong decision here. and thats commiting suicide by your own father. All that would accomplish is one guy dead, his dad in jail, and their family worse off than before.
@Android / What is that even supposed to mean? The family is BETTER with OP dead and the dad in jail, than they would be with the dad being an alcoholic? That's somehow both extremely optimistic and pessimistic at the same time.

By far one of the easiest "boss" fights in existence, and yet also by far one of the most satisfying.
if you read the notes around, the father also sold out all his best friends and business partners, people who supported him when they thought he was down, but were later tired of his bulshit because he was mooching off them and failing to do his part of the work. When they got tired of his shit and wanted nothing to do with him cause of his incompetence and abuse, he later false reported them to the nazi's to take them (and most likely their entire families) out of the equation and get everything in their absence.

1:29 Libertarians when someone says they called the cops after being robbed
I don't think the basement scene is proof of goodness, there's a reason it's the last scene before they confront each other.
His dad was teaching him a lesson, as he says later "I tried my damndest to fix you", we even get a few lines where he says Billy's a coward. By giving his son a gun, and telling him the monsters only appear because of his behavior, he's reinforcing his paranoia and fear. Billy was terrified of his father too, so it's safe to assume the only monster he dreamed about was him as well. The idea that he would confront the monster with a gun is even undercut by Billy himself, who kills the 'monster' with a knife.
BJ punches his dad to a new dimension in the thumbnail
Bj just holding his rage hoping that his dad would change
He was hoping his dad would drop the gun the moment he stared directly at him. The moment BJ saw his dad pulled the hammer, he knew his dad was beyond saving. The way he said:
"Daddy, I'm your son."
Was a plea for Rip, not to make him do it. Even in his dying breath, Rip had nothing but scorn to his son.
The fact he sleeps with the gun with the barrel pointed in his direction
Ok but not gonna lie, the monster in the basement scene was literally the ONLY time we see Mr Blazkowicz being a good dad. Wish he was more like that to his son instead of some abusive jerk
I think they made him too evil in this game. I wish they added more nuance to his character, scenes like that make us realize that every human has their good side, even if they’re horrible people in the end. I think many of us have had moments like that with our parents, I know I have more than a fair share of great, and awful memories with my own father so it hits home a little more with me, but the game decided to make him even more racist and paranoid and heartless in his old age.
