Adrenaline can be a hell of a thing, they would give soldiers in Vietnam shots of adrenaline and they would keep fighting even with a few bullets lodged in them.
Did you know that while playing as mason, you could shoot at Reznov after his death (for example the missions in Vietnam), that was one of the proof that Reznov wasn't real and it was just Mason's imagination
The face Steiner makes when he hears Reznov's name is amazing. He hasn't heard that name in years and suddenly the guy he experimented on says his name, he knows it's not the American soldier Mason, it's the man he betrayed all those years ago Reznov back from the dead for revenge
Plus he knows that if Reznov managed to hijack the brainwashing, then there is NOTHING he can say or do to save himself. Reznov's order doesn't care about the new situation or how useful he could still be, the numbers command Mason kill him and that is exactly what Mason is going to do. After all Steiner designed the system that way to begin with and assuming the hints about JFK are true, he KNOWS it works.
I love the detail of Steiner keeping his eyes on you til Reznov gets between you two; and that once Reznov steps where Mason stood, the camera switches to a more cinematic view than a first person view to subtly hint at the player no longer watching it as Mason. You’re now just the camera watching the scene
You can also see Weaver giving up on his gun and him and Hudson grabbing that massive tank, And if you can listen carefully you can hear the two hits on the glass before it broke on the third strike.
Reznov's voice showed he was a man who lost everything and had nothing to lose. And the fact that Mason conveyed that same emotion showed he was quite empathetic to Reznov.
Reznov helped him escape, was one of his only friends in the hellhole of Vorkuta, and inspired Mason with his stories of betrayal and thirst for vengeance

I love that Steiner is scared but still a tad cocky when facing Mason. It's only when he says the name Reznov that Steiner becomes straight up TERRIFIED.
0:36 Notice when it goes to Reznov it goes into cinematic, sweeping camera movements As opposed to the usual nature of POV cutscenes of Black Ops All to show that this is all in Mason's head
Can i just say I FUCKING LOVE HOW when reznov comes in in Masons side Mason's POV or 1st person camera acts like a 3rd person camera when Reznov comes in from the left Its like Reznov took control over his body and you the player are no longer in control of mason because you hear the numbers and the brain wash is kicking in. After all these years i never realise this detail.
Have you even noticed how smooth motion of disarming Mason was? Imagine that, in the game, he was a very dangerous man being one of the best people in special forces I went through some materials on youtube once in the past and I've learned that Treyarch had some veteran guy in their studio. Probably he was after Vietnam, and was providing them consultancy in such stuff like reloading a weapon with one hand while your other hand is gone. Imo this gave first Black Ops huge advantage. All these movements and unconventional arms makes this game still so spicy
When I was a kid I remember seeing bits and pieces of the game while my brother played it, but it was too hard for me and I was never really a COD kind of kid besides playing bits and pieces of multiplayer. I just had the urge to buy this game again recently and I absolutely loved it and I'm kinda saddened. This is the type of game that sticks with you.
Literally the only call of duty game that i can say i loved,i just remember how blown my mind was when it revealed reznov was never there,that he died in Vorkuta. "Dragovich,Steiner,Kravchenko..ALL of these..."Men"...MUST DIE!!"
Subtitles: 0:29: *mason throws Steiner in the seat* Steiner: “I love you” 0:57: reznov: I DO NOT CARE ABOUT NOAH! MY NAME IS VIKTOR. LISTENER. AND I WILL HAVE…MY RIBBON!!
Here is something I’ve been wondering for a 11 years. When you play the Hue City mission and you go to the end of the hallway to the defectors room. How does the Vietnamese soldier who hit Mason with a chair die? Reznov stabbed him from the back while Mason was on the ground, but yet Reznov was said to just be a hallucination.
@@ROBOHOLIC1 Okay but the NVA soldier literally knocked Mason down though and stunned him. Then he got killed from behind while Mason was temporarily disoriented. So idk how that is even possible for Mason to kill him.
Joshua Snyder The same reason Mason sees Steiner get shot from the side when he was literally holding the gun doing it himself. What Mason is actually doing is never what he sees. Same thing in every situation. He probably just killed him in some other way and imagines Reznov doing it
@@DeckofLies I understand that, but with that scene of the NVA soldier in particular.. I just can’t wrap my big ass head around it still. The Steiner scene I was just mind fucked the first time when you play as Hudson.
I always took scenes like this for Mason's memories when he's interrogated. So he remembers it as if he didn't kill the guy and Reznov was there but in reality he was never knocked out and killed that soldier himself
It’s scene always made me sad, because Mason was truly thinking he was doing right by his old friend. In all reality his friend was dead and he was brain washed. I loved that game so much.
I used to wonder why Reznov used his left hand to kill Steiner. Then I saw _World at War_ and understood, he wanted his revenge to feel as wholesome as possible, his finger squeezing the trigger...
This call of duty was a masterpiece. The same cannot be said for just about every other title in the franchise. If only this level of effort was put into the modern line up.
its like love and friends but for him is friend, cuz the fact reznov got his mind inserted to his its like taking the whole defenition of "till death do us apart"
Notice how Steiner freaks out when Reznov (Mason) tells him who he identifies as. This startles Steiner as he realises the MK-Ultra was not effective on Masons conscious - Reznov was the more powerful alterer.
It's hard not to feel for the old man but at the end of the day you have to remember that Steiner was an un-repentant Nazi and honestly deserved what he got.
I always felt like if he didn't get killed the americans would later use him to develop nova 6 themselves following what Reznov said ,,the flags may be different but the methods are the same" Steiner works to save his own skin not because he feels bad for what he has done. Still he felt more humane during that scene unlike the first time when you meet him.
Watching this really makes me think how messed up brainwashing is. Mason was 2 people at once. Even Reznov took full control of Mason. How it makes you do things you would never do. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it to this day. Reznov taking complete control of Mason is really confusing and messed up.
The modern version of "mi nombre es iñigo montoya, tu mataste a mi padre preparate para morir" EN: "my namenis iñigo montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die"
Meanwhile in a future episode of detective Conan Haibara: My name is Shiho Miyano! Gin: No! Haibara: **Pulls out gun from lab coat and points Gin’s Head** And I will have my revenge ! Reality: Ran who had gone insane: My name is Shiho Miyano and I will have my revenge !
Check out Mason and Woods playing Russian Roulette as well. That’s my other favorite seen from Black Ops.

Is it just me that actually prefers these graphics to Cold War? This game still holds up so well
I don't know, but I see Reznov is one of the most important character in COD timeline.
He's SIGMA
His patriotism says it all.
