    This guy could make the worst zombies map in history sound like a top 10 map with his commentary and I love it Also I’m not saying Tag der toten is the worst zombies map I’m just saying how good his commentary is
  • @gabeshaffer5444
    the video where the voices of the crew got together for the last time had me crying back in 2018 loved this story so much
  • @TheDarkYoshi64
    Not a bad map but an incredibly disappointing “finale”. Can easily tell it was rushed out the door.
  • @rigbydog9895
    The only thing I feel was missing from the main quest was some sort of inclusion of Dr Monty, where he would be working against victus in order to foil Nikolai’s plan, as that seemed to be the direction the ending of alpha omega was taking. Just a few voice lines and some interfering with the quest steps would have sufficed, but a larger confrontation with Monty to end the Easter egg would solve a lot of the issues people had with the ending in general.

    I never noticed it before but right before Sam shoots Nikolai, you can hear the pistol shaking from her trembling.
  • @a_boynamed_sir
    doing the "every EE ever" thing and getting all challenges/calling cards and just got back to BlOps4 man this map is so hot and cold for me
  • @krownwave
    these vids are insanely well made for such a small channel, mad props man
  • @gingie365
    I keep looking at the channel page, expecting a second channel or something like that. These videos are done like so professionally, and they highlight a lot of good that some zombies tubers, at least in my experience, would not talk about. Keep it up my dude, can't wait for the rest 🤘
  • @devacookiekun
    I LOVE THESE VIDS IVE BEEN BINGE WATCHING ALL THESE AND THEYRE SO AMAZINGLY MADE THEN I SAW THE SUB COUND AND IM LIKE WHAAA?? HOWW? THESE VIDEOS ARE SOOO BRILLIANTLY MADE I LOVE THESEE
  • @RealRaZoR
    To this day i think its criminal how bo4 turned out and that we didnt get a great war map before the story ended. The premise was realy special and i apreciate that. But i feel like it ended to early and not "bombastic" enough.
  • @lucast7092
    Dude I’ve been binge watching your videos at work the whole day. I thought you’d’ve at least 100k subs, the production is crazy.
  • @jaredmedina6124
    Your commentary is genuinely amazing. Maybe you should do a full timeline video.
  • @segaboy16
    Honestly i really wish the story just had some more breathing room bc i love how they decided to end the story but it just felt like it happened way too quickly
  • @hannanah8036
    i agree the sombre slow quiet end was the perfect way to end everything. No matter what a great war map would've been disappointing
  • What I love about this map comes the theory that the Modern Warfare and Black Ops timeline become connected because of the destruction of the multiverse. Sure, from a business standpoint it's different, but it's still a fun theory nonetheless.
  • @AiRsTrIkExXzZ
    I personally really like this map. For me it has a somber tone, like we know it’s the end but we have 1 final journey to go on. I like the EE too since there are those campfire bits which just add to the already somber tone and the ending is pretty good, for me atleast, since it does what it should’ve done. It made us want them to come back and/or have a heroes ending instead of being killed off with no one watching even though that was the point in the story. It’s what nikolai says. Even if there was no one there to witness it and tell stories of it, it still happened somewhere out theres
  • Finally some love for my favorite map. I’ve done this EE like 12 times 🙏
  • @Ricardo_Rick
    15:20 my bet is that the portal for them to escape opened right after richtofen n3, the one with the fire staff shard, came up during the boss fight, thats why there were zombies yet. The finale was completely unexpected, i just feel bad for the Victis group, they did all that, were tricked since tranzit and didn't even get a single cutscene without the comic(ish) style. A Shame that Cold war continued the storyline and completely ruined it with generic MCs and a lot of unexplained things...ohh, and everyone getting betrayed as well, i hope you make some videos on that mode as well
