Much like with the OG Capt Price, I believe it’s the work of the voice actor that really makes the character really stand out. Billy Murray did an excellent job as the OG Price whether he was calm angry sad etc for whatever scenario. Bruce Thomas does the same for Adler with the calm mysterious approach. The actors deserve lots of praise for the characters we love!! Oh I wish we got another VIETNAM campaign from Adlers perspective!!
He’s so badass and a great example of an anti-hero, makes no sense when people call him a villain when what he did was for the better good and saved the world. Great video ❤
He was mysterious and his character seemed too good to be true and superfluous. Like he's just playing the same role as Hudson in BO1, which doesn't really fit because there's already Hudson AND he's also super cool, super chill, super mysterious yet everyone trusts him. Going into BOCW and whilst playing BOCW I kept thinking the twist would be that Adler was a sleeper agent (like Mason) or that he was Perseus.
I am very glad adler exists,overall because he's a great character and feels very human without being boring either,has a simple yet cool design,almost all his skins are good,but also because i think black ops 6 would feel very empty without him,i mean,only woods would be the only previously seen character and as for me it would feel kinda abnormal
I finished BOCW campaign earlier this summer, simping, fangirling, fanboying and all aside, I genuinely think that Russell Adler is - one of the greatest thing that modern CoD has to offer. Him being an interpersonal character for us to follow him, to admire him and to detest him for what he did. It's all valid. His badassery doesn't come from unreasonable strength and power, but somewhat more "humble", "relatable" and "humane".
Yeah,he might be cocky sometimes (well,mostly outside of the campaign,because in it he's very closed off for obvious reasons),it's clear he still cares for the others,despite having a moral that confuses most of the fandom. He isn't a good or bad guy,he's just an anti hero that does what his country requires him to and that is somehow impossible to understand for CW's fandom. He also got a great design,very stilysh and iconic yet doesn't needs much detail
Adler is my favourite Call of Duty character alongside Price, Ghost, Roze, Park, Weaver, Polina, Woods, Mason, Makarov, Portnova, Alejandro, Valeria, Kingsley, Lucas, Lazar, Gus, Hutch and Menendez.
Honestly i say that adler is an hero that is willing to commit necessary lesser evils for the sake of stopping bigger evils and that is what a hero truly is someone that is willing to do evryting necessary to save lives even making "unpopular" choices becouse sometimes the ways justify the means but this saying is strongly dependent of the situation
@@neofulcrum5013 how so? Im pretty sure that an anti-hero is someone that is willing to do good things but for selfish reasons And im pretty sure that adler did what he did for selfless reasons
@@alessandrocanale6189 by definition sure. But it goes deeper. It comes down to methods as well. Methods like torture, brainwashing and executing those who surrender generally are not heroic traits. Even if the reasons are for the greater good. That’s where the term anti-hero comes in. Characters like Adler don’t embody the traits of the traditional hero but they’re not vile enough to be classified as a villain.
@@neofulcrum5013 yeah i get it what you are saying but it strongly depends on the situation like if someone does these type of things you said for the sake of fun thats undeniably evil but in certain situations such as trying to save lives both in the short term and especialy in the long term even the most evil actions can be used for heroic purpuses as long as its realy necessary and you do more good than evil Thats why i do belive that it makes more sense call adler a hero more specificaly a "realistic hero" instead of an anti-hero beacouse the "traditional hero" is someting that would be truly possible only in a perfect world
@@alessandrocanale6189 Fair. Although being an anti hero isn’t a bad thing either. It’s why characters like the Punisher and Redhood are seen with respect despite unsavory methods to permanently stop the villains. Adler’s deeds will never be fully recognized to the public but at least he has the respect of those he worked with and can sleep knowing he did his part to help save the nation.
I think they did some foreshadowing with it on the safehouse from some dialogs,anyways it would make sense,so they are aware of the dangers of being near bell
Alder is a redo on Hudson due to the mistakes made in BO2. Not in killing off Hudson but rather how they made him into an incompetent leader who makes dumb mistakes. Plus, changing the voice actor didn’t help either. Seriously, if you compare Hudson from BO1 to BO2, he feels different. But back on the subject of Adler, while he is a redo on Hudson, he’s an improved version of the character and made to be his own person. He’s competent and multilayered. In fact, he’s more of a darker version of Jack Bauer. But something that really helps is the voice actor they got for him. There’s so much personality and strength behind the voice that the writing itself wouldn’t have worked if it wasn’t that voice behind it.
Agree on that,i don't get why they nerfed hudson but at least that gave a much better thing (adler existing) rather than just ruining his character. And yeah his VA is great specially if you pay attention to MP/zombies and compare it to campaign. You can hear the change of the pace and tone of his voice according to the mood of these gamemodes.
Pretty much his actor Bruce Thomas breathed so much life and charisma into Adler on top of working with the writing given to him cause mind you, this was all made during the height of Covid while Bruce was also working on Halo Infinite as the performance capture actor for Master Chief.
Activision, infinity ward, need to make black ops and modern warfare storyline connect now. The MW 2023 was a disaster. Black ops is still not done dirty yet. They gotta put the black ops storyline to use. Just bring David Mason back and make him the new task force 141 member david under captain price's wing would be so cool.
If im right david is still a minor in bo6,altough i don't remember his age clearly,i don't think he would go onto the field,maybe he will just appear with woods a couple times but that's all
Treyarch needed a new face if they wanted to keep with black ops series and god damn they killed it. Adler is cold son of a bitch but a badass one and sexy one. I can’t trust him but I can’t hate him, I love him lol
Hey dude, about your Extinction story video, you forgot that the beast from beyond from infinite warfare zombies expanded on what happened after Extinction
Russel Adler is so CIA that I hate him, which for me is the best character they have done to hate i admit that XD I'm with my boy Alex Mason and Weaver :)
Not to be rude, but all the games have the same pattern in the game each year. Doesn't that strike for a little odd, especially since the big content creators basically control the games and all the companies do is be there like employee for them You don't have to respond if you don't want to I just wanted too see want you would think
I guess some content creators may have some influence on the multiplayer parts of the game but the story narrative might be a little harder to dicate.... I mean I'm not to sure tbh
@BranWolfYT I just found a pattern with all the competitive player they want the same thing each year and if they don't get what they want they complain and their is a video to support this

How? He literally acts like a normal human being as for me,if you refer to what he did to bell at least he had his good reasons to betray him,wich is something that got lost with shepherd in MW reboot

It’s the voice, the acting and that he’s what you envision a cia badass to be, chill, deadly, scarred but very stylish
Adler is who Hudson wished he was.
🤣
Adler had hair
Hudson in Black Ops 1 was sick it just went downhill from there
BO1 Hudson clears Adler. Then they turned him into an overweight moron
@@KingShibe he's been hated since bo2 soo ig you can blame the same writers for that

If anything he’s a hero
@ he definitely is
He crossed the line to make sure the line was still there in the morning as he put it 🔥
I remember how some people thought he was Perseus for some reason when Cold War first released. Great character, the Perfect CIA Officer.
Cause he was mysterious
He was mysterious and his character seemed too good to be true and superfluous.

I'd roll the dice and argue he's as well written as Menendez.
No
@@AjitaniShirasu I agree
@@Deathmare235 hes up there dude
He’s my favorite. An awesome character and extremely underrated so it’s good to see a video like this giving him some recognition

Russell Adler makes me think of a main protagonist in a Tom Clancy Book
America’s monster seems like a fitting nickname
Badass
Adler is my favourite Call of Duty character alongside Price, Ghost, Roze, Park, Weaver, Polina, Woods, Mason, Makarov, Portnova, Alejandro, Valeria, Kingsley, Lucas, Lazar, Gus, Hutch and Menendez.
Can’t wait to see how he is in black ops 6
The best intermediary between Woods, Mason, and Hudson.
i also think that he is the best Character in BOCW
You have issues, see a therapist
@@itsdyle9767 there we go starting to get aggresive and crazy because someone likes a character you don't 🙂

He's the ultimate spook. I wonder if Mason and Woods knew that Bell was brainwashed?
I think they did some foreshadowing with it on the safehouse from some dialogs,anyways it would make sense,so they are aware of the dangers of being near bell
They found bell along with Adler they’d be the first to know

He's the firestarter
By far the best character they’ve created since OG captain price 💯 Cold War got me back into cod after 10 years of mediocrity
Good video. Do you think that Alder will be the main character in a future Call of Duty game?
Well he's gonna be a major character in BO 6 obviously, but something tells me he might die for some reason.
I think bo6 will show him a lot... and thank you
Pretty much his actor Bruce Thomas breathed so much life and charisma into Adler on top of working with the writing given to him cause mind you, this was all made during the height of Covid while Bruce was also working on Halo Infinite as the performance capture actor for Master Chief.
we had compentation task force 141 lead by John price and task force lead by adler

Zakhaev is in Cold War. That alone connects Modern Warfare to it.
