Wolfenstien's art direction is very gothic & heavy metal inspired, which you can definitely see in a lot of this reboot's franchise, and I do really appreciate they went that direction when it came to depicting WWII weapons before the timeline divergence that these games take place in. If they went ahead and made the period-correct weapons actually look period correct in terms of details, it's fair to say they would've stuck out more and wouldn't've felt like they would've belonged, rather than the more stylized approach they chose.

I gotta say, I really appreciate Johnathan doing these weekly reviews for us. His knowledge, humor, and charisma makes him so enjoyable to watch. I truly hope we never run out of guns for him to look at or that he never gets bored of looking at guns for us. If you’re reading this Johnathan, you’re the g.o.a.t. and I hope to some day make a trip to the Royal Armories whenever I go across the pond.

The New Order STG-44 (Or as it is actually referred to in the game: STG-46, which is supposed to be a further development of the STG-44 we know and love) actually has the lower part of the handguard as a folding front grip that is unfortunately not utilized in gameplay.

How ironic you release this video today. I was at a WW2 military show today and saw an StG44... I immediately thought "Ah, the emotional support SturmGewehr!"

"Lugar shotgun with gatling barrels" is the most accurate description of this series' design philosophy as a whole.

Maybe the bolt on the double barrel was supposed to be for loading in rifle rounds, just like with the m30 drilling, allowing for an alternate firing mode; but for one reason or another, this feature got scrapped during development, and now we’re just left with a confusing double barrel with a bolt on it

The Wolfenstein’s series take on “Diesel Punk” is quite genius. And one addition to note on the Thompson is that fact it’s chambered in .30 carbine in the game.

If you want an episode of Maximum Jonathan Confusion, send him a reel of Gunfire Reborn. Some guns look like cartoony, superficial versions of real guns with Chinese characteristics, and then others are just small animals that you slap to reload. It'll be great, I promise.

Ian and GameSpot these videos make my weekend thank you

love Johnathan explaining the guns in my favorite games, and being a bit of a gamer as well awesome.

the thing that makes Johnathan so good at this is that he's not just a gun expert, he also knows a lot about videogames. That's something that often falls flat with these "experts react" videos, they'r generally only experts on their field and not in what they're reacting to. It's not as fun to watch a train heist expert react to a movie with a train heist in it if they don't know a thing about film. Someone who does would be able to point out limitations the director would have had to deal with, the quality of the special effects, how impressive the cinematography is or how the cinematic language conveys the emotions one would feel in a real heist. I wish more "experts react" series would understand that and get someone who knows about both of the things they're reacting to

Jonathan, With regards to the MG46, the Gatling '42, it took me a bit questioning that to come to a why with the barrel shrouds - The shroud was also part of how you changed the barrels on the 42, and if you're going for that extra-high rate of fire, a gatling setup saves some of the barrel wear, but it's still going to happen with a gun like that. So having it in a position in the field where it's going to wind up with that problem, having the ability to quickly change its barrels makes that aspect of maintenance easier. Of course, BJ dismounts it and goes John Rambo with it, but as you said - in his case it's rather comic-book like.

Some kid (work experience) in the Nelson Bistro wouldn't serve me before twelve (fair play as she was only training/on work experience) 4 On my first visit I couldn't believe how big the weapons were or some of them.

this channel doesn't disappoint

It'd be neat to see Johnathan to check out Receiver 2, given how absurdly detailed the guns are in the game

The primers of the cartridges in the Bombenschuss magazine are already dented, you can see it through the witness holes

Never thought this video would come

The Machine pistole has an upgrade option for heated shot, so the 'smoke stack" is presumably the heating device

I kinda love the design of the auto shotgun in The New Order. It is just so big and over the top with the side clipped box magazine and the top cover you flip up like it is an M-60.

New Colossus had pseudo blueprints of the weapons shown in the upgrade screen that may have been interesting to show Jonathan...

Funny thing about the New Order Thompson is that I think it's supposed to be a version of the Thompson that's chambered in .30 Carbine. There is an existing prototype that was submitted to the light rifle trials that was essentially a slightly beefier M1 Thompson and I can't say that it wouldn't be neat to see something like that being what was ran with as an ad-hoc Assault Rifle.

In previous destiny episodes you guys showed Jonothan guns, but not the perks on them. I'd love to see him react to a weapon like lumina having a chambered compensator, or tresspasser having a mag called ricoscet rounds. There are deffinitely more wacky mag and barrel options on other exotics (tractor cannon has extended barrel) but i cant name them off the top of my head.

The diesel punk themes of the weapons are so cool i hope we get another game soon enjoyed youngblood

Would love to see him react to the older Wolfenstein games like 3D, RTCW and ‘09.

I just got a on xbox 1 and a week or two later after I have just started playing wolfenstein the new order, the lads upload this
