Jacob does not “Blow himself up”. His massive balls of steel redirected the explosion, but unfortunately knocked him out. He then woke up, soloed an entire zombie horde, then left by punching a wall so hard it vaporized.
To be fair, Kaub is the only location where soldiers are actually retaking a position from the undead. Every other location, you are running away from it. And considering the pontoon bridge sank, I doubt the undead will actually be able to get in after the victory there, meaning that kaub could really be the only safe haven at the moment.
Huh, didn’t think of it that way, but it’s an unsustainable gain if they can’t get any more resources, they only have as many as is on the cart, which didn’t have a lot of “edible” things like food and water
They could've start fishing, make a makeship boat with the resources and with salt water, fire, a bucket or pot with any cloth is possible to make clean water
Not necessarily true. Kaub takes place after the escape of Leipzig there isn't much Info where the French and Swedish forces went but in my Theory they either join the Ottomans or run to Switzerland, the rest of the Survivors hid in the Church where the zombies don't really swarm it unless a survivor is discovered there. So someone probably suggest us to run and stay in the Castle so they pick up some Pillows, bed sheets, Muskets, and Etc. they push the cart since the undead is literally everywhere. They shot the cannon and retake the Castle. Did they retake Kaub? No, but only the Castle.
Fun fact: When Jacob appeared as the first real character in the first objective map Leipzig, he didn’t have a cannon name. It all started from players mourning this fallen soldier by calling him names such as Jack, Jason, maybe even Jimmy. But only one name really stuck: Jacob. I was one of the players who helped spread his name back when Guts and Blackpowder only had two maps.
Guts and blackpowder is a rare type of game knowing 99% of zombie game is set in modern or future. Modern soldier struggles to figth a zombie horde even tho they got full equipment. Now imagine a soldier from 1800s trying to figth of a horde with musket and blades. Its one of a kind
@@gatoloco3949 maybe that could be a map or a whole ass chapter in guts and blackpowder, or something like that. After 50 years of the blight not touched the americas it finally enters during the us civil war, or even right after or before to make thing interesting.
This lore hits hard, it not just shows up like "Oh no, Michael got infected so we had to kill him we are so sad, also we got only 350 kg of water and food, please help us" Instead it goes like "??? day, three men has gone. I can still hear one of them screaming as he gets ripped apart. One of the cannibals------", like, man, it just sounds super depressing, since we can literally SEE how hopeless felt the ones who wrote these letters
Lets be honest. The undaunted is probably the most badass ship and crew to have in Guts & Blackpowder. A whole ship moving on a rescue mission when a horde of atleast a 100 infected to go and save atleast 20 or 10 people
I love how even when us humans are in the amidst of a war, fighting each other, when another threat shows up threatening humanity's extinction, regardless whether friend or foe, we all decided to unite once again to face this threat, it's basically like a natural instinct at this point.
I love to think that the endless mode Of Vahordous shows the team of soldiers that couldnt get on the HMS undaunted on time and fought until they couldnt fight anymore. I love to think this since the lighthouse is already on, and all the resources such as the shovels, swabs and cannon ammo is gone, aswell as all the snow shoveled already (Theory of mine)
Sad to think that the it is non-canon due to dev already said the objective ver. of vardøhus fortress is canon. I like your theory tho, pretty make sense.
They are probably the ones that attempted to hold the horde but due to the sheer amount of zombies their line broke causing the ship to leave early as to not let the survivors on the ship succumb to the infection. Thus they were the only survivors, forced to hold on against the seemingly endless horde who had risen from the death of the snow and in the face of death and hell
@@mc_chayakorn0202That's why they say this could be the people who DIDN'T get on the ship, since the objective guys already did everything. Just because one is canon doesn't mean the other isn't.
It was confirmed that infection occurs due to the sin. The marshal got infected because of his greed to rank up in army at cost of his fellow man and civilians. So i wonder how it will end

I pretty much write the lore for the game and rn it's kinda all over the place. There's some retcons and many grammar errors mainly because I have no background in writing. I'll try to clear up the games lore in future updates, but it's kinda difficult telling a story when you can only show what's going on in the map and written notes. This video was pretty neat though and I'm flattered someone made a video about the lore.
Chat, is this real? Seriously through I think it being all over the place is pretty fitting considering we’re never one nation or one regiment but a collection of soldiers and nations. Most id say is to see some conclusion to what happens to all of them afterwards, like where they go or escape to. Being limited to notes or the map though can be hard for sure though, but I think it’s what adds some charm to the game cosidering the gameplay is first and lore is second most of the time. It’s a great game and I am pretty hyped for making part 2
Yall should make it so the overall performance of the players influences the lore like if we're all booty the blight wins but if we're all goated then humans win or smth

I think that the time period works well with the zombies because it's one of the worst time periods for a zombie apocalypse. In the any later and we have powerful automatic guns and far better medicine. But the medieval ages have basically nothing to fear from zombies with everyone being a walking distance from a safe castle and expert, well armed and armoured fighters being everywhere (perfect for fighting zombies). Basically, this period is perfect because the guns are still kinda shit and we aren't armoured from head to toe with iron and cloth.
I like how guts and blackpowder's concept is so simple. You have COD zombies back in 2010 going "ok so there was this scientist who was trying to make super soldiers who'd obey every command but he lost control and used teleporters to teleport and infect the world" Meanwhile guts and blackpowder is infinitely more believeable because it's just this infection that's really good at infecting so you have to survive as an 18th century linemen. I also like G&B because it's basically "do you think an 18th century plattoon could survive a zombie?"
By the way, u missed a crucial fact, the reason they are fighting the blight in the first place is because of the line on one of the start screens saying “hell is full” basically, zombies were just people rejected from both heaven and hell
not from heaven, but from hell, however that piece of lore is not exactly sound yet otherwise there’d be zombies in britain and america, which we havent heard of yet
At around 11 minutes when talking abt jean if you look beyond the bridge you can see 6 horse carridges running away before the bells ring and the boat comes
One interesting fact about all of this, is that the infection most probably didn't spread past Europe, since it's been confirmed the zombies don't know how to swim (this is proven in San Sebastian and Kaub's bridge part) however it's uncertain how the zombies may react in hot temperatures, since as seen in Vardohus, they can withstand very low temperatures with seemingly no problem. Also, Sleepy Hollow is non-cannon.
Interesting. Idk if they’d really survive the Middle East if they’re not tolerant in heat but a good question non the less, what about eastern Russia? We’ll see. Also I know it’s not cannon which is why it’s not included in this part, I will talk about it in the 2nd part though
@@TophatKing306 The Zombies will be Extremely Frostbitten in Eastern Russia and its likely they would endure the hot deserts of the Middle East due to their Bodies becoming extremely slim and shrivelled leaving nothing for the Heat to actually Kill. Boy its terrifying to Imagines Frozen Bodies in a Blizzard slowly stammer towards you like its begging for help only to lunge at you when you do
Jacob was actually supposed to go with the survivors to the bridge, he was given the idea of walking back, and throwing the torch at the barrel. And then escaping with the survivors. But since the dev whos animating worked on him at midnight, it was late and he was tired so he just killed him off. So yeah. His death was pointless.
I think you forgot to mention that after the players clear the castle in Kaub they are meant to be there to escort the Prussian army through the Rhine, not stay there.
That wasn't really their intent, they were scared of an attack so they lit the explosives up while there were still some men crossing (By they, I'm referring to the guy that blew the bridge up)
While at the battle of Leipzig, the French army was being battered by the coalition forces. One of Napoleon's marshals was ordered to blow up the bridge after the army had evacuated, but due to a miscommunication the bridge was blown up prematurely, hence the badge "A Slight Miscalculation."
The thing you said about defiance at the end, that's *hope.* Hope Is one of the most important qualities of humanity as a whole because a lot of the time even when we know we will lose we still keep on trying till we either win or lose trying. This Is the exact reason why humans have survived on Earth for so long, even In the worst situations, the harshest environments, the most awful moments of their lives they still had one thing by their side, hope.
We do need more of that. Since the hope we get is more of the “We live to fight another day” type rather than the “We actually stand a chance against them” type of hope.
Just because the Blight appears unstoppable, doesn’t mean it can’t be beaten! Britannia stands uninfected on the gates of Europe. Britannia, heart of the Industrial Revolution. Long live humanity!

@@TophatKing306 anothe fun fact: there used to be cannons on the stairs at kaub, but it was removed at how player utilized it to stand on the end of the cannon making them unreachable to the undead
I really like the idea that G&B had. Most zombie games are just "oh no zombie you get bitten you get zombie", meanwhile G&B has an actual reason for having zombies, which is that the zombies are unpure souls, stuck in flesh in the living world because there is no more room in hell.
Yoú actually are the best person to explain the lore, all the other vids aren’t as great but your one is the best! It also made me more interested in the napoleonic era
Correction for Kaub: The players are a scout force that went ahead to secure a safe path across the Rhine for the rest of the Prussian army that while looting the fort for supplies, accidentally opened the cellar. Which caused many of them to die and/or get infected (which includes Blucher)
As the french officers charges with his infantrymen against the horde of undead the bomber says to the officer "are you strong because you charged, or did you charge because you are strong." the french officer didnt understand him because he spoke english, the bomber then said "Perdriez-vous face à la horde ?" the french officer replied "Non, je gagne"
Uh... as a priest, officer, and sapper player. I like to fight and kill zombies cuz if i don't i feel like im wasting time or im being useless. But i also do sometimes run away *only* as sapper to build more defenses at the back for when we get overwhelmed.

Things i think should be added: There should be a way to save barry either through a secret NPC or by getting up there, same with jacob you should be able to save hin by finding a barrel placeing it next ti the gate then blowing it up before him

12:18 You realize there is a priest class, & not only that, but when said priest holds up a cross, the zombies real and back off. This is, in pop-culture, normally seen with vampires, but who knows.
The zombies are souls that went to neither heaven or hell so them looking away could be the idea that the soul denied christ in it's time living and now cannot bear the sight of what they denied
No, like, the pysically shield their eyes and back off like a cat faced with a cucumber. They also seem to yell at the priest, which could also show that they are, instead of souls escaped from purgatory, from satan himself. On a more interesting note, bombers (zombies holding barrels), do not react and simply keep walking, undeterred. This confirms barrels are from Japa- I mean not from hell in someway.
Honestly I feel if a zombie apocalypse were to happen it is incredibly realistic that everyone would be like “uh oh we need to stop this and kill each other later” ngl

Imagine the last mission: All nations selectable, you can select any regiment. You and your allies spawn in a open field or arrive in a open field and theres only one person and its Napoleon. he has like powers to raise the dead. IF you kill him a cutscene plays something like all being a nightmare or the zombies just vanish and everything goes back to normal.
Correction: While it is implied the soldiers in Norway are Norwegians, Swedes, and Russians, the regiments available for Denmark-Norway tell us there likely were a few danes present at Vardøhus, commanding the local Norwegian garrison.
Yeah that was a bit of an oversight, I also forgot that it was the kingdom of Denmark Norway but just said Norway cause I just saw it was based there :/
11:12 He could just wait for the ferryman/carriages to return, they have a proper barricade wall and 6 cannons on the other side, so surviving is much easier for them. they also could have an ACTUAL regiment-sized force rather than the like 18 ppl group we're in
True, they also have Notre dame which could be a good base to hunker down. The only thing I’m wondering about would be logistics such as how many supplies do they have such as food, water, ammo, equipment, etc. cause even a regiment would probably struggle against the zombie horde because of that. It’s likely they just went with the civilians and left you the ferry to escape tbh
This video actually inspired me to play guts and blackpowder and honestly the story In a nutshell is hell is too cramped so now everyone is back from the dead but there also trying to kill you.
I was always thinking of a prologue campaign. Like it captures the chaos and the infection just as it starts. Like beginning at a military base or in with a regiment in the town. I’m wondering if they’ll add that.
I think they might but it would be a little weird to implement as like an “objective” mode. It’d be cool to see more as an endless but that wouldn’t make much sense either
7:23 Jacob did this because to save everyone by blowing himself up to destroy the gate you can see his face that he does not care about his own life and you did not talked about it his death is not pointless.
11:22 "the dead shall walk the Earth" is actually a reference to Dawn of the Dead, made by zombie-father George Romero, where one of the main characters say, "when there is no more room in hell, the dead shall walk the Earth", which ties in with the lore as you've seen by previous comments where it's stated that the dead come from an overflowing hell.
There's just something about serious tones and themes in roblox games that are so fascinating. It's grimy and bleak aesthetic is both limited by roblox and unique in that it's in roblox
Jacob is from the 1E regiment as the golden plate on his shanko says he lights the barrel and takes one step back then boom his intentions were not to kill himself
9:30 The Prussians can live there by fishing and catching water from the sea and boiling it (for no salt and chemicals), and the other supplies can help like blankets and pillows for sleeping and if anyone else gets to the castle like civillians, can be given the muskets the Prussian army earned.
The way you pronounced "Notre Dame" was funny and by the way the name of the officer in the "Catacombes de Paris" map literally translates to: Jean-Louise-the small-yes-yes-duboire. Gotta love the devs but nevertheless, great video!
This such a sick games having such a dramatic story. I cried ngl this is a beautiful story telling game which goes on like a movie and they probably will make a movie similar to this.

''get yo bitch ass''
Bro sent him to his ancestors
Hmmm BONK
bro sent me to an ad💀
By the way, u missed a crucial fact, the reason they are fighting the blight in the first place is because of the line on one of the start screens saying “hell
is full” basically, zombies were just people rejected from both heaven and hell
I know, I had it on the og audio but I must’ve removed it, it’ll be in part 2
so we are basically fighting homeless souls, neat
Basically lol
not from heaven, but from hell, however that piece of lore is not exactly sound yet otherwise there’d be zombies in britain and america, which we havent heard of yet
@@TophatKing306 when part II !!???!!@3132123135246357372342
Prussia is basically demonstrating the average modern day army in a zombie setting in G&B
basically “oh we’re kinda screwed yeah uh we got nobody-“
They got done dirty. Even the Russians and Austrians got a little more than Prussia
Except its the 1810s so somewhat justified.
they have muskets and cannons and horses...
not humvees, not tanks, not planes, not Automatic rifles.
You really think modern day army can't fight off the dead with their much more advanced systems?
an African warlord un-ironically has enough military assets to fight off a zombie virus.
At around 11 minutes when talking abt jean if you look beyond the bridge you can see 6 horse carridges running away before the bells ring and the boat comes
Yeah those are the last evacuees
One interesting fact about all of this, is that the infection most probably didn't spread past Europe, since it's been confirmed the zombies don't know how to swim (this is proven in San Sebastian and Kaub's bridge part) however it's uncertain how the zombies may react in hot temperatures, since as seen in Vardohus, they can withstand very low temperatures with seemingly no problem. Also, Sleepy Hollow is non-cannon.
Interesting. Idk if they’d really survive the Middle East if they’re not tolerant in heat but a good question non the less, what about eastern Russia? We’ll see.
Also I know it’s not cannon which is why it’s not included in this part, I will talk about it in the 2nd part though
@@TophatKing306 The Zombies will be Extremely Frostbitten in Eastern Russia and its likely they would endure the hot deserts of the Middle East due to their Bodies becoming extremely slim and shrivelled leaving nothing for the Heat to actually Kill.
Boy its terrifying to Imagines Frozen Bodies in a Blizzard slowly stammer towards you like its begging for help only to lunge at you when you do
That is a scary thought I’m not gonna lie. Well at least we know zombies can have a big range
yeaahhhh I'm not sure about zombies not being able to swim anymore since beresina is here
@@DiazFanboyto be fair, we walked in the water. same with the zombies
Jacob was actually supposed to go with the survivors to the bridge, he was given the idea of walking back, and throwing the torch at the barrel. And then escaping with the survivors. But since the dev whos animating worked on him at midnight, it was late and he was tired so he just killed him off. So yeah. His death was pointless.

I think you forgot to mention that after the players clear the castle in Kaub they are meant to be there to escort the Prussian army through the Rhine, not stay there.
Fogor? Thank you though
But the entire Prussian army is dead, so they decided to settle there, hence the supplies.
Yup. New home!
@@rzar4971 Not sure, atleast a 10% of it should have survived, and maybe try to gather all the supplies of the city and go back to the castle.
@@rzar4971 No the supplies are to last them while they wait for the rest of the army. Kaub takes place after Leipzig.
the idea of blowing up the bridge in leipzig is acually from history that a french solider acailly blew a bridge to make it impossible to escape
Interesting. It’s pretty cool
That wasn't really their intent, they were scared of an attack so they lit the explosives up while there were still some men crossing
(By they, I'm referring to the guy that blew the bridge up)
While at the battle of Leipzig, the French army was being battered by the coalition forces. One of Napoleon's marshals was ordered to blow up the bridge after the army had evacuated, but due to a miscommunication the bridge was blown up prematurely, hence the badge "A Slight Miscalculation."

Origin of the plague is probably a Napoleonic Dawn of the dead “When there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth.”
The thing you said about defiance at the end, that's *hope.* Hope Is one of the most important qualities of humanity as a whole because a lot of the time even when we know we will lose we still keep on trying till we either win or lose trying. This Is the exact reason why humans have survived on Earth for so long, even In the worst situations, the harshest environments, the most awful moments of their lives they still had one thing by their side, hope.
Beautifully said
We do need more of that. Since the hope we get is more of the “We live to fight another day” type rather than the “We actually stand a chance against them” type of hope.
You know, I’m still amazed how easily people write off Roblox when there’s games that are so amazing or have lore like this

(On San Sebastián) A few rankers passed off of consumption this morning. Perhaps they were stumbering, but they woke with bloodlust. A poor chap took a better look at the two, and they lunged at him and ripped his throat out. Couldn’t tell you what happened afterwards but more and more men became inflicted with this bloodlust. The streets are teeming with man- eating cannibals. Our officer has held up in a nearby house and-
Fun Fact: in catacombes, you can encounter an iron door that has an empty chair a little farther from it, there used to be a guy that sit on the chair with a blunderbuss beside him, it was obvious that the guy took his own life, he was there in early released of catacombes but was removed because it broke one of roblox terms and service thing
Another Fun Fact: in san sebastian, during its early released, there was bodies litered EVERYWHERE with detailed gore, it was later removed because you've guessed it, term and service. theres also used to be bodies of dead french soldier behind the barricade down the road when you go to the town section and you can also get a clear view of them when you're up on the roof
That’s really cool, didn’t know that

“Europe has united to face the wrath of hell, may god aid us in our battle”
On god
I really like the idea that G&B had. Most zombie games are just "oh no zombie you get bitten you get zombie", meanwhile G&B has an actual reason for having zombies, which is that the zombies are unpure souls, stuck in flesh in the living world because there is no more room in hell.
Yoú actually are the best person to explain the lore, all the other vids aren’t as great but your one is the best! It also made me more interested in the napoleonic era
Glad you think so!
The story: dark and twisted
The gameplay:chaotic and funny
Correction for Kaub: The players are a scout force that went ahead to secure a safe path across the Rhine for the rest of the Prussian army that while looting the fort for supplies, accidentally opened the cellar. Which caused many of them to die and/or get infected (which includes Blucher)
How to survive the zombie apocalpyse in guts and blackpowder
“When they approach, we run away.”
Edit: its an oversimplifed reference
As the french officers charges with his infantrymen against the horde of undead the bomber says to the officer "are you strong because you charged, or did you charge because you are strong." the french officer didnt understand him because he spoke english, the bomber then said "Perdriez-vous face à la horde ?" the french officer replied "Non, je gagne"
So true. As a medic I run and only return for supplies
Love the oversimplified reference
Uh... as a priest, officer, and sapper player. I like to fight and kill zombies cuz if i don't i feel like im wasting time or im being useless. But i also do sometimes run away *only* as sapper to build more defenses at the back for when we get overwhelmed.

There is an upcoming game about zombies in medieval Europe.
I know this story is supposed to be grim but "quirked up white boy with a little bit of swag" had me laughing so hard I was in tears...at 2 in the morning...
I love this Game I started playing it when mobile actually worked and now one of my favourite UA-camrs that discusses lore did a video on it
Things i think should be added: There should be a way to save barry either through a secret NPC or by getting up there, same with jacob you should be able to save hin by finding a barrel placeing it next ti the gate then blowing it up before him
itd be cool if they would join you after saving them (maybe theyd act as an AI riflemen or something) and if they stay alive to the end then you get a badge or something
yess
Yo I like your story telling. Hopefully there's another part on this.
There will be
Thank you. I'm here for lore And story and I can get more interested
11:00 it could be that Jean was scared that the “survivors” could riot and break thru the barricades which gonna get the orther side kill so he let them extract instead of his regiment
Maybe? It’s possible but I also think he did want us to live in some way
@@TophatKing306 I forgot to mention the barricade is a 1 way thru he literally can’t let us in meaning there a higher chance of rioting so he force to give ferry men to us
True
Fun fact: When the idea of zombies first emerged in Haiti in the 19th Century, they were originally supernatural.
Cool
@@TophatKing306 also, the original idea was to have voodoo magic done on blacks, which will curse then to becoming loyal slaves, even in death.
Now that is crazy
12:18 You realize there is a priest class, & not only that, but when said priest holds up a cross, the zombies real and back off. This is, in pop-culture, normally seen with vampires, but who knows.
The zombies are souls that went to neither heaven or hell so them looking away could be the idea that the soul denied christ in it's time living and now cannot bear the sight of what they denied
No, like, the pysically shield their eyes and back off like a cat faced with a cucumber. They also seem to yell at the priest, which could also show that they are, instead of souls escaped from purgatory, from satan himself. On a more interesting note, bombers (zombies holding barrels), do not react and simply keep walking, undeterred. This confirms barrels are from Japa- I mean not from hell in someway.
lol, bombers know the tactics of taking one for the team
Honestly I feel if a zombie apocalypse were to happen it is incredibly realistic that everyone would be like “uh oh we need to stop this and kill each other later” ngl
The zombie would be wiped out in weeks.

100% lol. Time to see if Mustard gas has any effect on the blight
So… if im not mistaken.. humanity has survived for 101 years AND they held off napoleon’s army WHILE being attacked by zombies. Amazing.
@@JustTwentyPlays not held off napoleon's army, cause wellington's stated that the prussians french and british are working together to liberate europe from the plight, and that europe has signed a ceasefire for the napoelonic wars. Either way it's pretty damn impressive that they've held off the empire of the dead for 101 years.

Can’t wait for a part 2!!! I’m not a big fan of Roblox but this game truly intrigued me, has gotta be the best Roblox game out there
Can't wait as well
hell overflowing because of the amount of deaths due to the wars is epic
On god
But what about the people who are already heaven/hell? Are they safe or no?
@@nursestoyland in the lore, people in hell basically already go out of hell and become zombies since there is not enough space there. People in heaven are most likely safe since well, heaven is meant to be a good place
Jacob didn't blow himself up, he just got knocked back from the explosion so much, he flew all the way back to the place he came from with that barrel and torch
He gone lmao
Omg this video is such a W I got all my snacks js to watch this and I under stand the whole story line now thx to you
Damn that’s awesome! Thanks for watching
Imagine the last mission: All nations selectable, you can select any regiment. You and your allies spawn in a open field or arrive in a open field and theres only one person and its Napoleon. he has like powers to raise the dead. IF you kill him a cutscene plays something like all being a nightmare or the zombies just vanish and everything goes back to normal.
Rememeber,Jean according to the lore is still surviving to this day
On god
Thx for the reply,btw heres a gameplay tip,if theres a barrel zombie,DO NOT MELEE IT!,i learned it the hard way@@TophatKing306
Melee best strat though
Not anymore
Correction: While it is implied the soldiers in Norway are Norwegians, Swedes, and Russians, the regiments available for Denmark-Norway tell us there likely were a few danes present at Vardøhus, commanding the local Norwegian garrison.
Yeah that was a bit of an oversight, I also forgot that it was the kingdom of Denmark Norway but just said Norway cause I just saw it was based there :/
No worries, loved the video regardless
Now, Denmark is gonna be the main faction for København!
11:12
He could just wait for the ferryman/carriages to return, they have a proper barricade wall and 6 cannons on the other side, so surviving is much easier for them. they also could have an ACTUAL regiment-sized force rather than the like 18 ppl group we're in
True, they also have Notre dame which could be a good base to hunker down. The only thing I’m wondering about would be logistics such as how many supplies do they have such as food, water, ammo, equipment, etc. cause even a regiment would probably struggle against the zombie horde because of that. It’s likely they just went with the civilians and left you the ferry to escape tbh
Im gonna say something if you have a full regiment of men it's gonna be easier to die because cqc
11:06
Devs: "You see, what we did there was what we call giving False Hope."
Amazing vid I rlly love this game and always wanted to know the lore but couldn’t be bothered to research it lol so thx :D
No problem!
This video actually inspired me to play guts and blackpowder and honestly the story In a nutshell is hell is too cramped so now everyone is back from the dead but there also trying to kill you.
It’s fun game with good story, glad the vid inspired you
Hypothetically I believe it to be a surreal image for what damage the wrath of God could do.
True
I was always thinking of a prologue campaign. Like it captures the chaos and the infection just as it starts. Like beginning at a military base or in with a regiment in the town. I’m wondering if they’ll add that.
I think they might but it would be a little weird to implement as like an “objective” mode. It’d be cool to see more as an endless but that wouldn’t make much sense either
for me that'd be like the best change, like it should be accessed like hardcore and it has it's own gamemode simply called 'Campaign'

So true
i love how there is an ongoing argument in 7:05 lol
People fighting it was funny
The guy complaining seems to have a known disability in the gaming community as skill issue
7:23 Jacob did this because to save everyone by blowing himself up to destroy the gate you can see his face that he does not care about his own life and you did not talked about it his death is not pointless.
Could’ve gotten a bomber zombie to have done the same
@@TophatKing306 man jacob sure had a life of bomber now he is back as an human
Jacobs honest reaction:
KA-BOOM
that 1 mfer standing in front of Jacob: *:insert_very_high_quality_explosion:*

-Jacob
RIP Jacob, my favorite NPC in the game
11:22 "the dead shall walk the Earth" is actually a reference to Dawn of the Dead, made by zombie-father George Romero, where one of the main characters say, "when there is no more room in hell, the dead shall walk the Earth", which ties in with the lore as you've seen by previous comments where it's stated that the dead come from an overflowing hell.
There's just something about serious tones and themes in roblox games that are so fascinating. It's grimy and bleak aesthetic is both limited by roblox and unique in that it's in roblox
Jacob is from the 1E regiment as the golden plate on his shanko says he lights the barrel and takes one step back then boom his intentions were not to kill himself
2:39 that part made me think my fifer was just watching me get eatin alive.
9:30 The Prussians can live there by fishing and catching water from the sea and boiling it (for no salt and chemicals), and the other supplies can help like blankets and pillows for sleeping and if anyone else gets to the castle like civillians, can be given the muskets the Prussian army earned.
