Happy 10th anniversary to Wolfenstein: The New Order! What was your first Wolfenstein game? This subject matter is naturally a little contentious for TH-cam's standards so I wanted to extend an extra special thanks to my supporters on Patreon for helping to make this content possible! I'll be discussing a bit about my process of making this video (and getting around TH-cam's moderation detection) in my "director's" commentary, and more in this month's Patreon-exclusive podcast.
One of my favourite games, the 14 years cutscene gives me chills. Return to Castle Wolfenstein was my first Wolfenstein game and it was the first game I played over LAN
Something I’ve noticed people don’t bring up is how the nazis were actually trying to find artefacts to win the war in real life. Like the Holy Grail, Thor’s hammer, even Atlantis. So, basically Wolfenstein shows what would’ve happened if they did find something.
My favorite photo you used in this excellent featurette is the one at 5:45. The look of "WTF is he thinking?" on the guy middle right with the mustache and black suit, as well as the other man to his left in the middle of frame is priceless.
1:30 Hitler would have never had to invade Spain since Franco's regime at the time was basically allied or at least politically aligned with Germany and Italy
Hey I'm the guy who asked for this on one of the red dead vids, I am sick as a dog and hanging on by a thread and this is exactly the kind of semi-engaging fun fact-ery that I need today
the truth is that Germany got extraordinarily lucky during many of the precursor/early events of WW2. The response to German aggression was horribly mismanaged and many nations were experimenting with their own forms of fascism (which stalled them). Germany wouldn't realistically have the manpower to subjugate and control the world as in the game, where there are columns of German soldiers walking down cities in the American southwest. Even if D-Day failed they still would have lost.
@@mrwires232 TheFrosty1 did a video on Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 and 2. After watching those two videos, I'm starting to think the first two Black Ops games would've been more interesting if they were more historically accurate.
@@andyfriederichsen i think all games would be more interesting if they were more historically accurate! At least for black ops one, it was clearly meant to be set in the 80's/late 70's but had interference and that makes up most of the issues. The later games are incredibly lazy and disappointing, though :(
@@mrwires232 They should have just changed things be proper 1960s weapons and equipment. I wouldn't mind having SKS rifles and PPS-43 SMGs during the Vorkuta uprising (or the helicopters there being the Mi-2 or Mi-4 during that mission instead of more Mi-8s). That's not even mentioning other fun things they could have included, like M48 Patton medium tanks during the mission "The Defector" fighting T-54 tanks.
As a New Zealander I can't help but be curious on what life would've been like under Japanese rule i know it wasn't pleasant considering that the Japanese was so much worse than the Nazis
The Japanese Empire was about as bad as the Nazi’s or the Soviets depending on who you were and which nation you belonged to As a white person in New Zealand you would definitely get better treatment from Germans than Soviets or the Japanese. Germans considered Anglo Saxons as equals and brethren to the Aryans. Since Anglo Saxons were just German tribes that colonized Great Britain, taking England from the Native Britons Japanese occupation would definitely be much worse for a white anglo saxon than Nazi occupation given that context. But for people that the Germans considered Sub human, nothing could be worse than Nazi occupation
Japan wasnt worse that the nazis, they where about as bad. Germany and Japan came to sn agreement where the colonist population of new Zealand and Australian would be moved to easteen europe in the lebensraum program
@@Imma_do_my_own_thing would Japan have followed through with that agreement though? Japan wanted to remove all white people from the pacific region, and I doubt that Germany would have wanted English people moving into Eastern Europe (because they wanted that region to become German). Japan had already been known to slaughter large groups of people in various island nations.
it gets called a world war when a big portion of the world is involved, in that case, it wasn't, when germany attacked poland like half of the world was involved
You know what always got me about this timeline? How did the US not beat the Germans to the A bomb? The Nazis in the game only got the bomb in 1948, even with all the tech boost they got here. America would have still gotten the A-bomb in 1945 just like IRL, and it’s never explained why they didn’t in game.
Actually, it is. In The New Colossus, in the first New York level I believe, there's a newspaper clipping that details how several of the scientists of the Manhattan Project were killed in a freak accident that also revealed the existence of the project to the US public. CORRECTION: Completely wrong about the above, my bad. Apparently the clipping actually details how several scientists associated with it were executed instead.
In game the us stayed nuetral for several.more years bc pearl harbor never happened so usa got a late start on research pushing the bomb back by like 5 years at least
Technically part of that large domed building was made as the area for the foundations were dug out. These days it is used as a popular swimming hole as it was filled with water. Also, that one rocket scientist, while a party member, wasn't really serious about it. The only reason he was a member is because the government mandated that anyone with a white collar job had to be a party member or they would not be permitted to work in a white collar job. He preferred to work on space related use of rockets and not weapons. In one test of a V2 rocket for the purpose of being used as a weapon, he remarked in his notes that it was a failure as it landed on the wrong celestial body as a subtle middle finger to the government without saying it outright.
Hey, I was wondering if could continue the Red Dead Redemption History series by also going through the historical accuracy of the first game too. Both games of course compliment each other in many ways and I feel the series wouldn't be complete without looking into both games.
I was actually waiting for @TheFrosty_1 to release an in-depth historical inaccuracies video on Wolfenstein: The Old Blood; but then I stumbled across this channel. Good job, it’s very informative!
I think that it's a Nazi propaganda poster and there were actually more German deaths than 89 (possibly 4,000-8,000 more deaths) and possibly less Allied deaths than the poster says (about 25,000-50,000 less deaths).
I love how in this alternative timelines the axis power are the winner but Italy is knocked out like it didn't even exist, in the man in the high castle Italy his seen as part of the great nazi reich, probably because we surrendered in 1943 and the war ends later, so Hitler chose to conquer it and integrate it in the reich, I don't know if this should be possible, during ww2 Hitler freed Mussolini from his prison after hi was arrested and he put him in charge of the Salo Republic, which was a puppet country but still a country, so why Hitler conquered it?
Correction: Japan surrendered irl after the Soviets declared war on them, meaning a third front was opened in the north. The atomic bombs... well they were definitely a factor, but not as big as is often made out in textbooks. The firebombing that Japan had been under for years beforehand did far more damage and took far more lives.
I literally bought this game yesterday and fell in love with it after watching kevduit play it. I got the new order, old blood, new collosus, and young blood all for 11.99. I might not play young blood I heard it's bad. But I love it so far I've watched like 10 videos on it already
Listen, this is getting stupid You're directly watching my everymove As I just finished RDR2 you made your first RDR2 Video Now, I literally just completed Wolfenstien And you instantly make a video?! Istg if you make a Fallout video any time soon Jokes aside, you make amazing content One of my favourite channels on this platform!
There’s a book called Guns of the South, where South African white supremacists time travel to the American civil war and give Ak47s and modern medicine to confederate soldiers.
Wow can people in this comment section just have fun!? and not say WeLl AcTUalLy 🤓☝️ Geez can history nerds be annoying, HOI this and realism that. Wolfenstein isn’t supposed to be accurate BECAUSE IT’S FICTIONAL AND NOT BASED ON REALITY!
@purple-25377 even if they won the battle if stalingrad (which is a very big if) would've collapsed the soviets (which is also a big if) there's still, y'know, The entire united fucking states of America to deal with. the effort they put into the European war compared to the effort they actually could is miniscule
@purple-25377 yeah month sure is not a lot when you can just make shut up and arbitrarily buff an army to have the forces and logistics it didn't so it can have more time to build defenses in the city at the time they were too busy finally capturing it. But he said "Realistic". Also Japan making better choices between these two battles is a seperate scenario (that frankly probably also wouldn't have earned them ultimate victory)
The Nazis could never have won WW2, but it’s always interesting to theorise and Wolfenstein makes an Axis victory all the more crushing for the game, when you want to pick up and gun and fight back!
Germany couldn't even invade across 21 miles of English Channel, never mind across the Atlantic Ocean. The British Royal Navy had pretty much won the Battle of the Atlantic before America even entered the war. For the last 500 years only maritime powers have dominated the world, and Germany wasn't that
Actually one of the different things from the game and from real life is that Einstein never left Germany in the game and helped create the technology the nazis used to win the war
ok, i have to comment on ''the germans could have won'' which isnt true and im making this to inform people that might read the comments lol. By any means, the only reason why german could even have taken france is wise luck and allies ignoring reports, the only reason why they got so far in the USSR was because of how unprepared the Soviets where. The moment they got there indutry going, it was over for the nazi's. Hell i dont even think they could have won with the wonder tech in wolf, there production method was far behind the allies and the nazi's had issues getting rare resources because they had no acces to them and beside that the nazi millitary system was so broken. No branch really wanted to communicate with eachother, there where many times where the right hand didnt knew what the left hand was doing. Japan also had no change to win over the US navy thanks to there american industry, they build 15 carriers in 1943, bloody 15! It was just impossible for the facists to win with just the lack of resourches and the bombing they had non stop. WW2 was a war of production and there was just no way for japan to win the war.
No, no it really isnt, ima put this simply since im on mobile, but even if germany was able to successfully reverse engineer the unrealistic space hebrew technology, it wouldnt be able to sufficiently produce and equip its army enough to win the war, the wermacht at its height couldnt afford to replace all its horse carriages with fucking actual trucks just as a minor example.
Did we really need a 13-minute video to explain to us that Wolfenstein didn't happen historically? Idk man, last time i checked, America wasn't under Nazi control, so...
What? No one said Wolfenstein didn’t happen it’s a Alt history game it’s not supposed to be accurate it’s a what if scenario it’s a thought experiment of what if this thing happened Have you ever thought of the what if instead of being narrow minded have some fun for once
Is [insert video game based on fiction] historically accurate? Well by definition a game can not be, as you have the opportunity to change history with decisions. Duh!
The machines def aren’t bc they’re bulky and ugly af… looking akin to Warhammer… even MAYBE Doom… but one can blame that on the Germans copying / reverse engineering their tech from that old Jewish/Alien tech (Da’Yuch’Cha?!)…
Doesn't Wolfenstein have Ancient Jewish Technology that is super advanced? That's how the nazis only lost 89 during D-Day. That's how the axis won. The jewish tech.
Wolfenstein is completly and utterly unhistorical, the germans wouldnt have had the recourses to beat the soviets, the americans and the british. Neither did they have the tchnolohical advantage, which in most important fields, the allies had. Still a interesting video.
7:04 I'd be more careful with that framing of the sequence of events. Nuclear bombs --> surrender. It almost feels like the justifications you hear for killing civillians with nuclear weapons. Historians argue that Japan was already surrendering and THEN the bombs were dropped by the U.S. government. For various unethical reasons, including testing out the nuclear arms technology on a populated territory and making a show of force to the entire world. I love your videos. I would just recommend to not limit yourself to U.S. sources only, because that opens you up to be propagandised by a government. And try not to be "apolitical" when it comes to heavily political subjects like these. Recommended video. Shaun - Dropping the Bomb: Hiroshima & Nagasaki So is Wolfenstein historically accurate or nah bro?!
To be clear, I make no attempt to be "apolitical" when it comes to genocides (like the Holocaust) or crimes against humanity (like the atomic bombings), and my range of sources are never limited to one country. I appreciate the recommendations.
In fairness compared to the alternatives the nukes were chosen because america DID at the time believe it would either come down to the nukes or the US military pulling off a costly naval invasion of japan which would’ve arguably killed WAY and i mean WAAY more then the nukes, and might’ve scarred japan to this day, so look at it from the perspective of American high command and political leadership at the time.
@@RealPixelsi guess it feels "apolitical" because you not once mention socialists vs fascists and such. But I guess it's because of TH-cam's restrictions, so I get it. Sorry if my input came of a bit aggressive. I'm still a big fan.
@@Voschane bro. I'm not ten. And the original game is from around 2007-2011 so it's not a "new" franchise, if you want to get technical wolfenstien was created back in the 60s as the first first person shooters later on doom would be also produced by the same guys but it improved on everything. So no, wolfensiten is not a new franchise, its probably older than your parents actually.
@@EvilOurpleWizard The video is only talking about the rebooted section of wolfenstien, there is no logically reason to bring up games before that. "back in the 60s" my claim remains accurate. " its probably older than your parents actually." I love being right.
@@Voschane NO, it's not, and even if it is the original game still came out around 2001 so it's still quite old, 23 years old, and the title says is "wolfestien" historically accurate, meaning all games with the name "wolfenstein" this is an obvious remark and your quip at the end of your reply just shows how arrogant and prideful you are when the argument is still not over.

So, basically Wolfenstein shows what would’ve happened if they did find something.

I read the title and it just baffles me that some people really don't believe all this happened.
Considering the first scene took place in 1946, I was caught off guard last night during the place crash.
Glad the tutorial was still running. Lol
How the hell did 156,000 Allied soldiers die in alternate D-Day, and only 89 Germans die? That means that for every dead German, 1752 Allies died.
Germans probably used some of the advanced technology that Deathshead discovered
I think that it's a Nazi propaganda poster and there were actually more German deaths than 89 (possibly 4,000-8,000 more deaths) and possibly less Allied deaths than the poster says (about 25,000-50,000 less deaths).

There is no realistic timeline where the Axis actually wins.

The machines def aren’t bc they’re bulky and ugly af… looking akin to Warhammer… even MAYBE Doom… but one can blame that on the Germans copying / reverse engineering their tech from that old Jewish/Alien tech (Da’Yuch’Cha?!)…
Da’ Ya’ yushud
probably not
Please do AC Odyssey.
Doesn't Wolfenstein have Ancient Jewish Technology that is super advanced?
That's how the nazis only lost 89 during D-Day. That's how the axis won. The jewish tech.
no what the fuck
Wolfenstein is completly and utterly unhistorical, the germans wouldnt have had the recourses to beat the soviets, the americans and the british. Neither did they have the tchnolohical advantage, which in most important fields, the allies had.
Still a interesting video.
Wolfenstein isn’t supposed to be accurate just like every what if scenario, it’s a fun game series and in some ways a thought experiment
Most definitely not
If you need to make a video on if Wolfenstein is historically accurate, maybe you shouldn't be playing Wolfenstein.
You don’t get the video. Anymore brilliant statements, retard?
I tought this was gonne be an intresting vid on the deep lore of wolfenstein instead it's just bethesda crap
Not realy.
It's not supposed to be historically accurate. It's supposed to be escapist where you get to switch your brain off and have fun.
Why is this 13 minutes long
7:04 I'd be more careful with that framing of the sequence of events. Nuclear bombs --> surrender. It almost feels like the justifications you hear for killing civillians with nuclear weapons.
Historians argue that Japan was already surrendering and THEN the bombs were dropped by the U.S. government. For various unethical reasons, including testing out the nuclear arms technology on a populated territory and making a show of force to the entire world.
I love your videos. I would just recommend to not limit yourself to U.S. sources only, because that opens you up to be propagandised by a government. And try not to be "apolitical" when it comes to heavily political subjects like these.

So is Wolfenstein historically accurate or nah bro?!
To be clear, I make no attempt to be "apolitical" when it comes to genocides (like the Holocaust) or crimes against humanity (like the atomic bombings), and my range of sources are never limited to one country. I appreciate the recommendations.
In fairness compared to the alternatives the nukes were chosen because america DID at the time believe it would either come down to the nukes or the US military pulling off a costly naval invasion of japan which would’ve arguably killed WAY and i mean WAAY more then the nukes, and might’ve scarred japan to this day, so look at it from the perspective of American high command and political leadership at the time.
@@RealPixelsi guess it feels "apolitical" because you not once mention socialists vs fascists and such. But I guess it's because of TH-cam's restrictions, so I get it. Sorry if my input came of a bit aggressive. I'm still a big fan.
0/10 Nazi es lost so yeah inaccurate 0/100
:)
Wolfenstein is just trying to pull shit out of its ass to justify a poorly thought out setting
Naw 😂
@@starkjet2197 No u
Did bro graduate from a McDonald's? Cause... 💀
"Recent" yes. A game that's older than me is very recent
lmfao 10 year old
a decade isn't that old either, the most recent game in the Wolfenstein reboot series is also from 2019 which is definitely recent
@@Voschane bro. I'm not ten. And the original game is from around 2007-2011 so it's not a "new" franchise, if you want to get technical wolfenstien was created back in the 60s as the first first person shooters later on doom would be also produced by the same guys but it improved on everything. So no, wolfensiten is not a new franchise, its probably older than your parents actually.
@@EvilOurpleWizard The original is from 1981. The more popular reboot is from 2001, with regular installments after that.
@@EvilOurpleWizard The video is only talking about the rebooted section of wolfenstien, there is no logically reason to bring up games before that. "back in the 60s" my claim remains accurate. " its probably older than your parents actually." I love being right.
@@Voschane NO, it's not, and even if it is the original game still came out around 2001 so it's still quite old, 23 years old, and the title says is "wolfestien" historically accurate, meaning all games with the name "wolfenstein" this is an obvious remark and your quip at the end of your reply just shows how arrogant and prideful you are when the argument is still not over.
no
