Black Ops was all about the unofficial CIA projects and Black Operations that were rampant at the time. Honestly how they tread the line of fact and fiction just made the story all the more intriguing.
They're still doing them. Just because they haven't been leaked yet doesn't mean they're not happening. MK Ultra, Operation Northwind; bunch of stuff we didn't know about at the time that got released afterwards.
It's crazy how BlackOps I and II gameplay is very similar to real life missions of that time, using real names at times even...you're basically playing out someone's real life, and someone is who under MK Ultra (Mason)!
One theory I have in Black Ops. During the meeting with JFK Mason was programmed by Dragovich to shoot JFK, but we know Reznov's brainwashing Mason to kill Dragovich. So my theory is: when Mason saw JFK in the room, Dragovich's programming began to activate and prompt the pistol drawing scene, however, it failed the moment JFK mentioned Dragovich's name. Both brainwash conflicted in that very second. But somehow Reznov's programming persisted in Mason.
When I played through it for the first time this year I was amazed at how good the pieces of the puzzle were put together as I progressed through the campaign, it's absolutely worth replaying over and over again.
I absolutely LOVE your style of content, and it's clear just how much effort you put in to this and your other videos. I hope you get more exposure because you are criminally underrated! Fantastic video - BO1 was my fav COD so I really enjoyed this one.
This was the first call of duty I got as a kid *on the wii too lol* The part with JFK and mason fighting the urge to kill him was so fascinating because I had zero idea what anything meant because I wasn’t shooting 😂
i played bo1 when i was rather young and understood jack shit from the game it wasn’t until bo2 that i replayed it and gained a decent understanding of the game itself and then years later i found myself doing another play through and then knowing the historical background made the game 10X better for me, same goes to bo2
This was probably the only Cod I really enjoyed the story of. When I realized a lot of the things happening were flashbacks fueled by PTSD it actually really hit deep.
I miss being bad and dying on round 5 on BO1 zombies, something about the mystery of what was happening in the maps, always wondering what was behind that next door, always wondering what new crazy weapon was in the box, and coming to realization on what those colorful soda machines with the catchy jingles actually did. Those where the times where zombies was mysterious and honestly...Kind of scary, something about sitting in that main menu strapped to that chair, watching the room go red as you hear the zombies theme with banging on the window where Hudson was once looking down upon you at, and seeing TV screens showing where there was zombie outbreaks around the world and seeing people being experimented on, it was a full blown nightmare...A nightmare that I wish I could have again.
You're killing it with these vids man from concept to production value to topic to humor you've got it all figured out. I see half a million subs for you AT LEAST in the future. Keep it up!
I remember playing this while in high school, loved the story and the multiplayer/zombies mode had me pulling all nighters with friends more times than i like to admit
I love when cod interwheaves real history with their story. it really makes you go WTF when you look up the reall life counterpart and find out they exagerated less than you think
I just discovered ur channel like a week ago and I just wanna say this is some of the best content on TH-cam. I have no idea how u don’t have at least a mil subs but I have no doubt U’ll get there soon, keep up the good work man!
That is still my favorite game, especially the styling of the campaign and the writing of Resnov, I only realized looking back after I finished the obvious impossiblity of his survival
Bro i remember the game on my old PC was keep crashing in first mission over and over again, I have to ask my father to fix that shit poor man every night he came from work instead of going bed he helps me to open and make the game correctly. Good old days
I randomly stumbled upon your channel a month ago, and I'm so glad I did! I love how creative your videos are and all of your live action shots taking place all in your apartment lol Keep doing that voodoo, you do, so very well!
Black ops 1 always forever be the beginning for me as a kid to enjoying black ops 1. The story, zombies, multiplayer. Everything to this game is what I love about black ops and 2 just made it more better and Cold War was a good addition to love black ops again. So basically black ops 1,2 and Cold War is enough for me to enjoy cod Xd
This feels like an Act Man video. Very well done, good lore, gameplay and the skits were genuinely funny. Also good mic. I don't really have a criticism. Edit: I subbed.
I was in second grade when I first played black ops when it came out ant the campaign cutscenes scared the hell out of me and still to this day when mason screams it give me chills.
I'm glad I've found your channel. You could talk about anything and I would watch that shit a thousand times in a single day and I would still laugh my ass off every time.
In my opinion, I like it when call of duty is a medium to retell history, like cold war, Vietnam war, world war 2 The modern call of duty like MW series, MW 2019 is ok but black ops stays my fav
Ur editing makes my inner child so happy. The child like cartoon graphics and wonky edits. The “nerf war call of duty IRL” shit inside your house and in the hallways with video masking. Bro I fucking love it. The intro with you getting shocked. Ah man what a stellar fucking guy you are. Keep creating content. one of a kind that mind of yours is
Lol the intro, the edits, the doubletakes, the jokes..dude you're hilarious!!! I'm Cuban in shithole Miami and I remember how all us Cubans were sooooo happy with this game as 1st mission you kill Castro ahahaha World at War was so epic. I remember being like 12 and being blown away at the brutality of its single player and bouncing Betty dismemberment!
I remember getting this game on Christmas I was 12 and I went upstairs and starting playing it my mom started yelling about the open cutscene with woods cussing , I always told her I’d mute it but just turn it down
I saw a trailer for the Money based upgrade system and I just love that they didn’t see the need to clarify you didn’t use REAL money bc that wasn’t really a thing. Simpler times
I would almost cop a 360 to see if anyone's still online. This is the first video of yours I've seen and your production value is vicious, man. You were definitely built for this, see you at a million subs.

@@voodoo2006 the CIA still won’t tell the public about their operations and such. Because it’s classified.

Did you play with the sound muted?
THOSE ARE FLASHBACK

I don’t think it fully reverted him tho, because Mason kills JFK in ‘63 (Shown in the ending cutscene)
@@nonameman7114 I agree. I think my theory suggests why Mason didn't kill him sooner.
@@Ceathus ah okay, well in that case you’re probably right
What a wholesome conversation "I am so proud of this community"
What do you mean theory lmao this is literally what happens. They explicitly state this
Remember when CoD was made with this much passion? Now we have "I shoot Nazi's..they die."
And
"Your team" vs. "enemy team"
You mean beta team names? Im sorry but pretty sure thats not what the teams are called in vanguard
@@Fjdjfjsz92938 that's what there called there's no distict factions in vanguard
They don't seem to be shooting Nazis because they removed all the the Nazi symbols and such in fear of offending a bunch of little sallys
Bro you just described the first 3 COD games and World at War.
@@Lightning-gg5iuand even "Project Nova" in this game lol
“6.5 millimeter. 11:22. Texas…. Ascension.”
The words Alex Mason says at the very end of BO1. What a great game.
Wish call of duty had the balls to do this kind of stuff nowadays

a paprika video is an instant watch, thanks for blessing my morning Paprika! that first bit was great 😂
Hope you enjoy the show :D
I didn't play black ops, but paprika will always be must watch.
He came back when the world needed him the most
Master of the 4 moron elements
26:00 that 1984 reference is the cherry on top for this video...
Love how much Onion is featured, best character in CoD history
That screeching noise that plays when Mason talks to JFK scared the crap out of me when I was younger

I love cod black ops one and now YOU have just made it better
I died at the Ellen bit, subbed.
Such an underated channel.
Underrated comment tbh
everytime i replay this campaign i pick up on new little tids bits i had missed before and it’s great
NOTHING will ever come close to the captivity, power and story telling black ops 1 had, a true masterpiece
Bo1 has my certified award of based campaign
I remember getting this game on Christmas I was 12 and I went upstairs and starting playing it my mom started yelling about the open cutscene with woods cussing , I always told her I’d mute it but just turn it down
we wouldn't have Black Ops 2 zombies as we know today without Moon, if Paris was added who knows what would have happened.
you are my role model sir cooking spice
The opening scene in the video was the greatest thing i've ever seen ngl...
One of the most underrated youtubers out there
Thanks my friend
It's a long wait but worth it
had some tech issues :/
Few things in youtube make you laugh in this days, and Paprika is one of few.
Love your editing man, keep up the great work 👍
Very apparent that you took your time with this video. Excellent editing and 10/10 entertainment all the way through!
I play this campaigne like 8 year ago and i still remember that moment
The feeling of betrayal but at the same time loss hit like a tank
"can someone itch my nose real quick...?"
"T-that's not important!"
😂😂😂😂😂
Saying my nose being itchy isn’t important and not scratching it is just torcher
This is unironically one of the best call of duty videos I have ever seen
You have a phenomenal style
This game is a certified hood classic

he really feels like a lower budget upisnotjump.he still has his own charm and nice sense of humor of course
Hey, Paprika! I got so excited waking up today after binging your videos, to find a new piece of gold ⭐️
The effort put in this video is immaculate. Certainly reminds me of Scott the woz a bit but that’s a good thing he makes very enjoyable content
Your channels underrated! Glad this was in my recommended!
Amazing wordplay. I love your content mainly because of your writing and edit
So many great edits in the video. I’m glad I found this channel this is a masterpiece
Black ops 1-3 was uh a good twist because everything that can be proven can be equally questioned
man i loved this campaign. but man. i was so young i was like "what the hell is this weird tv room?" "what??"
but i loved it
These vids are just getting funnier :)
