Irons is an amazing villain for several reasons, but mainly because he appeals to what people think is right and wrong. The reason his betrayal works so well is because the player so far has only seen the positives of a person who doesn't need any kind of governmental approval and is doing what is "right" by their standards. Then the player is given a cold hard look at the reality of a person who doesn't care about rules and regulations and wields absolute power, Irons does what he believes is right even if by everyone else's standards it's monstrous. Advanced Warfare teaches the player a lesson about giving 1 person complete control over everything and expecting them to be a great person as well.
14:46 “they wielded the biggest stick” After shepherd from MW2 saying “Sure it matters the biggest stick, but it matters a hell of a lot more of who’s swinging it” It makes a lot more sense of what shepherd was referring to
the graphics in these cutscenes were absolutely unreal. The motion and tiny movements in the face are so fluid and realistic it's lifelike. It's crazy how good this game was yet it was still shat on by the cod fanbase.
It was extremely meh for me. It wasn’t bad, just… not really memorable or compelling. All the Modern Warfares, Black Ops 1/2/Cold War, and Infinite Warfare (the campaign for it, at least) all had leagues better campaigns in my opinion. I really only remember this campaign for Kevin Spacey, press F to pay respects, and that one awesome house invasion level. Oh, and people incessantly saying MITCHELL! But, if you really like it, I can’t stop you. It’s certainly better than Vanguard.
9:54 I love the cinematography in this scene. The fear and concern in the man’s voice. Irons’s “no” which makes the characters freeze, but Irons eases the concern into reassurance when he says they will “tell everyone”. Then when the audience feels he’s going to stop the attacks, he turns around and shoots him. Along with the camera angle where your character is standing, Irons walks around the man and pats his shoulder, where you can’t see his face. Not seeing his appearance anymore creates this feeling that the meeting is over and he is going to sort out the situation. So when he does turn around and shoot him, his face reveals the true layer under his character. And Gideon’s shocked “fuck me!” reaction coincides with the audience’s shocked reaction. It makes the kill and his character reveal more intense. The campaign really does feel like a cinematic thriller (and action) movie.
@@TheBlobik Yea the attacks had happened, but it’s only revealed in this scene that Irons knew the attacks were going to take place but chose not to do anything.
It is still kinda funny how the hologram drops real blood (in the moment the holo dissapears the blood does too but you know what i meant lol) but quite a good point my guy
Irons is such a duality of writing. He can sometimes boldly spit out facts about this world....and then become the most eye-rolling corporate bad guy with fascist undertones in the next scene, hitting every possible cliche along the way. That last scene, "I won't kill you, I'm not a monster". Oh goody, my eyes could not have rolled further into my head.
I think the scene you refer to ("I'm not a monster") is actually great, it shows how someone like Irons is convicted in his cause, and how deeply it shows he believes himself to be acting with good intentions, that he is doing the "right" thing by sparing Mitchell. Actually is a pretty well developed character, and the story as a whole, of course, has an allegorical exploration of the failings of partisanship and American bureaucracy to effectively govern itself, and all of this is contrasted with the, as you aptly put it, dark fascist undertones. So while Irons makes seemingly good arguments, his presumption that man "doesn’t want freedom" wants to "have rules" and a leader that "can keep chaos at bay," is a straw man argument. Any of his arguments really are straw man arguments. -- even if he is persuasive, he is logically flawed and amoral. Because his logic is flawed, he doesn’t recognize that morality is a part of being human. When Iron states "because of all the worldviews, nothing gets done."(pp) While also saying that he is right; he is asserting himself as a moral authority. He gives no consideration to being wrong, but also believes ending thousands of lives via Manticore wasn't morally correct, but rather logically sound. Yet proudly asserts that he's not a monster by "sparing" one life. I think the narrative is overall sound for conveying the depth of a character, albeit clunky in the overly opinionated parts, I agree with you, I think overall it still does a pretty good job of conveying the story while engaging the audience in a deeper narrative, and ultimately I think that's what media is really for. To watch something you can enjoy the action of, while similarly considering the more thematic elements and how they may apply to our lives. Btw, I have never actually played this game but I love a compelling story! And this was a vidya game from a decade ago!
i never played that game but i actively watched the videos about its campaign story. to be frank that is maybe one of the best story i ever saw in a game. endearing characters, cool villain with good intentions but with bad executions, effective plot, interesting political and militarized themes... it's just a big shame this is actually in a COD game. if only this story would be in a separated game. or in a good movie.
Damn Irons was such a high quality villain, I'd look the other way when that woman showed the video of him killing Hades and remain within Atlas. That's how charismatic he was.

It's amazing this game came out in 2014, it was a great game. Call of duty is stuck in the past and nothing like this game came after. Nomore wow games
The problem that big franchises like COD face is that they can never seem to make everyone happy. People didn't like the future games so now they're going back to WWII.
If this game had been made by anybody else or named something other than call of duty critics and gamers would hail it as one of the all time greats. So much effort put into these games and nobody really gives them credit because it's a throw away game with a one year life cycle.
I don't know why but for some reason I remember the "press f to pay respects" meme blowing up when I was a kid, but it started here, and I was not a kid when it started
Probably because the right things always come with sacrifice, even if that means lives are involved. But the heroes obviously do not tolerate that, so they always focus on lives rather than the right causes
Because the devil always plays it logically and realistically. It is charismatic and compelling. However, these are half truths and half lies. It is a prevalent narrative all throughout myths and stories of the past.

11:42 my god this just keep getting closer and closer to the actual world's politics. This game sucks but the campaign was freaking incredible in concept, however the plot is rather stupid and forced. The only thing I enjoyed was Kevin Spacey and the gosh-darn magnificent cutscenes.
I think no one here would argue with the fact that Jonathan Irons is the exact answer to the question of who would Frank Underwood have been if he continued his career in the private sector. Thanks to Activision for giving us a second chance to see Spacey reprise such a character.
This is my favorite kind of villain. Even though you know he's evil, you also realize that he's not exactly wrong. It's what drew me (and many like me) to Heath Ledger's Joker
The jump from Ghosts to Advanced Warfare in graphics is mesmerizing. I seriously wouldn’t believe these two games came out in the same decade if I wasn’t a fan of the franchise.
Looking back at what Underwood was planning to do after his stint at the White House in House of Cards, this seems to be the closest we can get to a continuation from Season 5. Underwood was looking beyond politics at that point, and was looking to shift his focus into the private sector in an attempt to control Claire and the White House. Definitely a better alternative than the mildly interesting Season 6 they gave us. I was only there for Stamper lol
How to take over the world: Step 1. Come in as their saviors. Step 2. Give them security and protection. Step 3. Work with the people and allow them to choose their own government, whatever it might be. Step 4. Once you have supported them enough establish a permanent connection so that they will be your allies and provide resources. Step 5. Enjoy the power.
He lacks the spiritual virtues of the Christian faith, the pragmatism of a true Machiavellian, and the nuances of a great charecter, but he had some solid points. 7/10 libertarians
I always wondered. How did Irons find out about Ilona, Gideon, and Mitchell watching the recording when Ilona had a scrambler? Did the scrambler not actually work like it was supposed to?
Hes in control of everything including his own skeletons. You think he will relinquish power to a simple scrambler meeting by his own cooperation on an action he did? He's maintained powers , monitoring, and was actually the definition of a real man in charge who knew everything that was going on in his company every step of the way which is why ATLAS was so successful due to good management.
Brother is too damn on point about everything to be a villain His scene saying that "dying for what you believe aint worth it" reminds me of the scene from Chernobyl when the head of the KGB locks lagasoc in a room and tells him "WHEN THE BULLET HITS YOUR SKULL, DOES OT REALLY MATTER WHY??"
you see kevin spacey in the government with an american flag behind, you just never forget his role in the "house of cards"

Honestly one of the best campaigns I’ve played outside of og MW and BO
This was the first campaing i played as a child i still like the game
I always wondered. How did Irons find out about Ilona, Gideon, and Mitchell watching the recording when Ilona had a scrambler? Did the scrambler not actually work like it was supposed to?
Hes in control of everything including his own skeletons. You think he will relinquish power to a simple scrambler meeting by his own cooperation on an action he did? He's maintained powers , monitoring, and was actually the definition of a real man in charge who knew everything that was going on in his company every step of the way which is why ATLAS was so successful due to good management.
Perhaps that’s what got them to investigate? Seeing cameras down will get security to investigate.
This is kind of what would have happened when Frank Underwood resigned his presidency and went into the private sector
3:25 "what you're seeing is Advanced Warfare"
"You must answer to the CALL OF DUTY"
7:14 the actor playing the general here also played Colonel Davis in Call of Duty WW2.
Greatest actor ever KEVIN SPACEY HE MAGNIFICENT
I played this on the ps3. I was blown away, i never thought that toaster could play games like this.
6:25 this game is a decade old. I know its a rendered cutscene but its SO good
Gonna have to play this again
I can tell atlas doesn't believe in democracy.
I never play a cod game but for kevin space i would play it
Man, Kevin Spacey might be the best actor ever.
Best cutscenes in terms of graphics
1. World War II
2. Advanced Warfare
3. Modern Warfare 2019
Funny and amazing as usual keep up the good work👍
Can't argue with him
1:51 "here in the future business cards costs $800 each. You're welcome"
Jonathan Irons was such a good villain
“Are we developing the weapon? No we are not … because we’ve already developed it.” 😂😂😂
Twisted SOBs throughout my life have used the same excuse: I'm busy. And busy means they don't want anything to do with me
It would have been really neat to choose your side. I 100% would have stayed with Atlas.
Press F to pay respect
Say what you will about Irons, but he certainly is a hands-on CEO.
Brother is too damn on point about everything to be a villain
His scene saying that "dying for what you believe aint worth it" reminds me of the scene from Chernobyl when the head of the KGB locks lagasoc in a room and tells him "WHEN THE BULLET HITS YOUR SKULL, DOES OT REALLY MATTER WHY??"
When I saw the first few frames the only thing I thought about was „Press F to pay respects“
I swear this campaign was something else man
I want this game remastered for modern console but Kevin Spacey is in it so that's never going to happen.
Iron is like Thanos.. he only wanted to do what is right
