the horriblest Aspect is that all the old games are lost for playing online with the whole wide World. Games that should be in a museum, as an art retrospektive contemplation the Games should be hold on to play for the posterity but instead of that, the industrie is killing the history of Multiplayer Games. Its like burning Oldtimer Cars, wooden Bicycle or the warping wings from Brother Wright.
Yeah they have ruined games with micro transactions and loot crates... It's not the same... I remember CODs multiplayer had 64 player lobbies on pc ... It was utter chaos but fun .. no micro management, no micro transactions , just load up , join and play... It was purely majestic..( nostalgia taking over)... Must find my old COD 4 disc 😂😅😅
No modern game can recapture the impact that Call of Duty had in its early days, and that’s largely due to changes in internet and media landscapes. Back then, narratives in games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, which loosely echoed the Iraq War, could be presented with minimal public scrutiny. The story aligned with a simplified perspective: the U.S. intervened because of alleged weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Today, that storyline wouldn’t hold up as easily. Access to diverse media sources and global perspectives means fewer people accept such narratives without question. Even the CIA later disclosed that no such weapons were found, confirming it was largely a constructed narrative to justify military action. This transparency has altered the way these stories can be told, limiting the impact of a single-sided portrayal.
The narrative presented in *Modern Warfare* resonated so strongly partly because it tapped into a powerful wave of Western propaganda that framed the "war on terror" as a straightforward battle of “good versus evil.” This portrayal was bolstered by a media landscape that, for years, leaned into a manichean perspective largely embraced across Western societies. This simplification of complex geopolitical realities made the game’s storyline not only believable but also widely accepted, as it echoed the rhetoric many media outlets were promoting at the time. The impact of this messaging on public perception helped normalize these narratives, which were less likely to be questioned. In today’s more informed and interconnected world, such portrayals would face immediate scrutiny, with audiences more aware of the intricacies and alternative perspectives surrounding such conflicts.
Well I am glad it was made in those times... Moreover strictly IMO, Video Games are a source of entertainment and there is no need for these to be politically correct.. Games need to be fun, cause if we wanted real world problems (as gamers), we would not be playing video games in the first place. 😜
@@Moneymatter247-jq9ni There’s no such thing as an ideologically 'neutral' or 'apolitical' narrative in games. Every game, whether it aims to be historically accurate, purely for fun, or something else, inherently reflects a particular perspective. Even if developers don’t intend to push an agenda, their work is shaped by the ideological environment they’re in. Take Call of Duty, for example. These games often align with pro-military narratives not by coincidence but because the developers, like Infinity Ward, have historically had significant backing from U.S. military propaganda efforts. This means Call of Duty has always been political, representing and reinforcing specific ideologies from the start. This isn’t just opinion-it’s a fact supported by history. On top of that, games today are often a continuation of that money-driven approach, but with new layers thanks to the internet. With microtransactions and digital-only releases, developers have more ways than ever to generate profit, and it’s easier for people to buy into it. Ironically, even though games today are technologically more advanced and costlier to make, they’re also much pricier than physical media games were years ago. Yet, back then, even with production costs for physical copies, games were often cheaper. This shift raises questions about the motivations behind game design and distribution now versus then
@@TCODESERTSTORM almost everybody is influenced or has some sort of ideology fed into them( socialization, the way humans pass on information, values,mores to their next generation) and moreover who cares if infinity ward was pushing a particular agenda.. point is this is the game that will go down in history as one of the best games around ( narratively for cods) and yes the impact game had due to internet slowly becoming accessible to all , would be hard to replicate... But at least for now gamers have been rejecting woke propaganda that has sadly crept into some games..
Imagine in a nice household and playing this when your parents have a 07 prius just to top it off
Ahh! The good old days!!!
Great video, don’t know how this has so little views

By that, all that is "echoed" in our memories is purely NOSTALGIA.
