    When the massacre happened I expected Graves & Shepherd to be the two main villains going forward but I forgot that the writers really had no vision so they had to shove in Makarov as quickly as possible. I remember watching TmarTn2’s gameplay on Alone & said this mission was JUST TO SHOW OFF THE CRAFTS FEATURE! Truth is Graves can’t be redeemed after what he did but because he’s popular I’m sure they’ll find a way to keep him in.

    Not to defend his massacre, but the game says “citizen” not “civilian” a citizen can be a militant or connected with the cartel in a non-combative way. Since the names of the people he’s killing are yellow, you could make the assumption that they could be money men for the cartel or have businesses that benefits the cartel. Therefore Graves might see them as legitimate targets for aiding the cartel in one way or another. Would doing this be ruthless and kind of be like a vigilante going to far, yes, but the people he killed would not be completely innocent if that were the case. Again, not defending the massacre, but it’s a possible angle to view the incident.

  • @tbh_evoristici
    @tbh_evoristici 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

    In my seeing, he is an anti-hero with something in his past that gives him the conviction that places with corruption and vile are vile and corrupt as a whole, so he doesn't care the means necessary to destroy that (someone that might have good intentions, but is too volatile to be fully trusted). If this is true, it could be explained in a prequel game focused on Shadow Company creation. We have a lot of operators that could have a particupation (like Roze,Leech and others) but probably we'll never see in a canon game

    I think this is actually great writing, making a character that was previously so likeable and charismatic suddenly do something so horrible you can't look at him the same way. You're not supposed to, but I think Call of duty kept him around for so long after MWII's campaign because he became a fan favourite. Clearly warren kole has a blast recording his lines he just *is* Graves irl.
    I hope he does return if they continue the MW reboot series it would suck if activision took the backlash for the campaign so hard they straight up reboot the MW series again.

    • @elperrodelautumo7511
      @elperrodelautumo7511 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The lore behind the 2022 Las Alma’s massacre involves why did Las Alma’s became a massacre site. The country of San sombrero is more of gta universe version of rl Mexico because there’s a Mexico in the gta verse but it’s a rump state. And mexico is a us state and Mexico City is the state capital. As well as its most populous state because of immigration from south and Central America. As well as between Aquila and back. Aquila is an American nation founded by Mexicans and later North Americans. Confederate citizens who relocated from a civil war torn Dixieland and most settlers were confederate citizens, slaves, and soldiers. As well as military officers. Landowners and oligarchs And they would be American protectorates and later independent nations. But unlike former American protectorates, Aquila leaned its own path. They were practically wanting to recreate a proposed golden circle empire and Aquila has Hispanic citizens who are either American citizens or local Aquila’s and would want its own sphere of influence. The Americas is divided into five powers. Especially in the Cold War. United States. Aquila, Andean union, Brazil, and Soviet puppet and aligned states.

    • @elperrodelautumo7511
      @elperrodelautumo7511 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Later it would evolve into the United States and North America union and pacific treaty organization. The Andean federation. The cod ghosts federation. And Brazilian empire and south Atlantic co prosperity alliance. And Aquila would become a neutral zone between the USA and China backed federation.

    Nah i don't think that alejandro would go out of his way to kill graves, graves doesn't have any reason to go back to mexico ever again too. Mexican special forces would most likely never operate internationally to take out an american PMC. Also the massacre in mexico is a lot similar to when Blackwater shot and killed 17 civilians and injured 20 while escorting a US convoy, kind of a similar number to how many civilians we saw die in the alone mission. 4 blackwater employees were tried and convicted and later pardoned. Maybe this is all just cope but I see a similar thing happening to shadow company, i don't really see commander graves getting killed off because of that mission.

Many members are about to die and dying and wounded. Graves comes and saves the day. As you load your members up your about to extract via helicopter, but its hit. It needs to loose weight to get out. And then Graves jumps off sacrificing himself so everyone can get out dispite price trying to catch and fail saving him. The helicopter takes off leaving Graves to the enemy. Barely saving price, ghost, and others.

    Gta verse lore on Graves: Philip Graves owned Shadow company from the former Umbra Catervae PMC. The original shadow company from the original modern warfare trilogy. They were involved in shady operations. And the most infamous was used by General lance Shepherd Henrikson. Brazilian army general. His actions came into light and how the company could’ve been used against the host country Brazil itself. It split the company up. Even created many PMCs up. And this includes Philip Graves own PMC. New Shadow Company. That he had partners and friends who wanted to make profit. And Graves backed up United Antiterrorism Coalition. An international anti terror unit made by Civilization Committee. At most the United States and Brazil. And Allie’s. As well as had members belonging to rogue and enemy states. Graves partners Peacemaker and Homelander were wanting to handle shadow company better. Being a business over personal glory. Graves chased glory. This angers his partners Peacemaker and Homelander into committing a mutiny against him. They have many conspirators involved in their business. Former colonel turned General Norris. And an insider who happens to be part of the Vaqueros. This conspiracy is more about causing false flag attacks to make shadow company more powerful and more involved in those places and operations. Graves realizes that his partners want to remain the war economy. Over peacekeeping. And this would make Las Alma’s become a massacre site. And Graves realize that his company had been comprised and must side with task force 141. And undo his shadow company’s actions. And stop his former partners. Truly Graves was fantasy glory chasing and becomes the redeemed hero. He wasn’t involved in shadow company’s missile escort when Homelander was in charge of leaking info to his rivals to cause some cat chase. And Peacekeeper was in charge in escorting the missiles and unfortunately Homelander let Konni group kill the shadows and take the missiles and give them to Hassan and AQ. Plus peacekeeper doesn’t know that Homelander was tricking him into being his side when he played him like a fiddle. Unfortunately, even the evidence of Homelander wasn’t enough to convince peacekeeper to see Homelander as the bigger enemy. And he was killed by graves. His last words was You were chasing glory and not paper. Graves cries killing peacekeeper seeing him as an innocent minded pawn. Graves wants to kill Homelander. But must focus on the vaquero traitor and mastermind of the stolen missiles.

    Listen… I’m more than aware of the horrid shit american contractors under payroll from the DOD and other pmcs have done irl, like black water giving unpurified water to American soldiers in afghanistan, or shooting random civilians in the middle of the road….
    But that mission honestly was the straw that broke the camel’s back when it came to my suspension of disbelief, it first started when the CIA and US federal government had to let hassan go because it was ‘illegal’ even though he was involved in the death’s of 3-4 American law enforcement officers, and the attempted murder of a active duty member of the Mexican army…. Not to even mention being in possession of drugs and having access to illegal weapons.
    And yes I get it, this isnt the first time stuff like thats happened in the reboot series, like barkov turning out to be rogue in mw2019 (even though all evidence points to him acting as an arm to the russian army proper, and no a rogue general wouldnt have access to Su-24s and an army able to occupy an entire country, plus barkov’s army was clearly intended as a critique on russia’s presence in syria at the time, and alot of warcrimes barkov was shown as doing are warcrimes russia actually did in syria and is now doing in ukraine, an example for the latter would be kidnapping CHILDREN, but I’m getting ahead of myself.)
    But, the lack of clear intervention of the mexican federal government, including the lack of federal police, national guard, and the MARINES, and also the fact that graves just went around executing people at random, and how this didnt reset mexican-american relations back to the 1850s is frankly for me, the straw that broke the camels back.

    I actually played this without playing MW1 so I figured maybe I was missing something, because it really made no sense for him to go do that. I personally think they did that so it made more sense for Price to want to kill him, because him just following orders and shooting Soap in the arm, wasn’t enough to give them this big “LETS KILL GRAVES” moment, because than they would seem like the bad guys. Graves didn’t deserve that, justice for my boy.

    I always had the idea that Shepherd had orchestrated the attack on the convoy carrying missiles.
    I mean think about it, You're a 4-star US Army General with utmost limitless resources at your disposal and you didn't use them correctly?
    Shadow Company had confirmed the route was clear and I'd assume that a PMC that has an AC-130 gunship would also have some form of ISR available so Konni wasn't camping most likely or else they would've been made.
    This means that Konni couldn't have had an idea where or what was being transported for an off-the-books transaction as they didn't have access to Shadow Company's comms until AFTER the attack.
    I always had the notion that since this is Shepherd we're talking about, he probably would've taken a gamble at taking down Makarov (Joseph Allen style).
    Picture this. General Shepherd had done something to burn Graves' team as PMC operatives on a black ops mission would be easy to dispose of in the best interest of drawing out Makarov. He perhaps became aware of Makarov's forces after his arrest and needed a way to take down Konni or at least draw them out so Shepherd can gain a tactical advantage, so he sends Shadow Company with minimal guys carrying precious cargo and tips off Konni with planted intel so that they can intercept the missiles. Shepherd basically kills Graves' men so that he could draw out Makarov from the dark in hopes of stopping him by whatever means necessary.
    There was basically no reason to give the missiles on a clandestine mission since either way, they're American missiles with the US flag on it, and regardless who fires them, it's assumed that the USA would launch them, so if the US was okay with missiles being launched, a 4-star General could EASILY authorize to send missiles to the ULF...unless he needed it off the books. Stealing missiles to track Konni to take them down before they could mobilize and Shepherd gets to keep this off the books. Of course, Makarov always plans ahead hence why Shepherd lost the missiles.
    It's definitely a stretch but always fun to examine Shepherd as more ruthless than a dude who just sucks at keeping an eye on American Missiles and Russian Gas.

    Honestly, I wasn't surprised that Graves betrayed us. I don't think anyone was, outside of newcomers that is. Seriously, his forces being Shadow Company and General Shepard being in charge of them, I'm positive a massive chunk of us all saw this coming a mile away. The brutality he demonstrated towards the locals really feels less like a sucker punch and more like the writers trying to justify that they're now our targets. The dialogue being so damn explicit with who was talking (Male Citizen 1, Sicario Male 2) definitely didn't help either. No nuance, no subtlety.
    I won't hold my breath in any case. MWIII has proven they're going the wrong way in terms of story. I mean why bother trying when people will salivate over the multiplayer?
