@@jasontodd1175 Nostalgia? So let me tell you something about Nostalgia: In order to even attach the term to something it has to be captivating. This is the essence of Nostalgia, a point sealed in time. You know why so many people have "Nostalgia" over this series? Because they were good once upon a time. Many things were good, however that time has ended awhile back. Developers abandoned what made their series so special in order to appeal to more audiences, people who never played the game before. It's good to branch out in ideas but you can't deny that these companies try to cash out on Trends. GTA kinda set the trend for Open World, PUBG set the trend for Battle Royale, the list doesn't stop as there's limitless examples that we can give. It's like majority of them don't care, the only ones that do care is the ones that create new experiences for the rest of us. Something as remarkable as Witcher 3, The Last Of Us, God of War, and etc. These are the type of people that cares for games as a medium not companies like Ubisoft, EA, 2k........

The first Ghost Recon is still one of my favourite games and one of the first I ever discovered how to make mods for! Wildlands is my second favourite GR game despite being a flawed genius, but I wish they had given it a first person view option.

I absolutely loved how you could take a soldier on several missions and end up being emotionally invested in a grunt that you have had for while with awards, and it would be heartbreaking when they would finally die.

the first Ghost Recon is one of the best games ive played. Best atmosphere and tension, a single map lasting 1hr 30min to locate then plan how to take out a target. It had stripped down and unforgiving gameplay. The games industry had a lotta talent in the early 2000's, it seems to have gone by 2019...

Future soldier was so underrated and I remember the single player gameplay mechanics and multiplayer were amazing

Yup, that's the sad truth unfortunately. Tom Clancy games used to be top of the line when it came to tactical games. Now they're all fast paced, xray-vision, xp-driven games that require zero attention span with a very small emphasis on actual realism. We went from Ghost Recon 1 actually predicting the Russian invasion of Georgia to Breakpoint where you're fighting some robots on an imaginary island against comic book level villains. 2004-2005 was the peak of Tom Clancy games, and 2008 was the last good year. After that everything has been absolute rubbish. Such a shame.

They could’ve just had it where the Division and perhaps a couple of other games were this fast paced Michael Bay shooter games and then have Ghost Recon be this tactical game, to keep everyone happy.

But I suppose in a way people created it, since everyone liked these Michael Bay explosiony games, so they decided to create something out of Call of Duty Black Ops (the more modern ones), it’s a shame but it was to be expected when everyone clinged to such games

IMO, future soldier was the beginning of the end for the franchise.

Ghost Recon (2001, PC) was the first game I've ever played, and still a game I play from time to time in coop with a couple of people. Nothing like it. 18 years have passed, and I've never seen an enemy AI as formidable as those damn ultranationalist Russians... After their decision to consolise the series and pander to the younger console audience, GR stopped being what it was always supposed to be and what the first one truly was, a rival to ARMA (back then, Operation Flashpoint). It's truly sad to see what became of the series. Also, anyone remembers how amazing and adrenaline pumping the music used to be? JAG, Stargate and others at the time had similar music style, I don't know what it was, but god damn was it amazing.

It’s atmosphere is one of the best in any game. There’s no bullshit marvel humor or excessive explosions and action set pieces. It’s very quiet and tense, peppered in with some of the most intense shootouts you can possibly engage in in a game. It’s also eerie when a distant squad member kills an enemy and whispers “goodbye” into the radio. Despite the limited graphics, Redstorm did everything in its power to make Ghost Recon as intense and atmospheric as possible. 10/10 game.

This is hands down - the most enjoyable video on the franchise, and also gets me fired up to try one of the later installments of the series again.

This was fun to watch. Thank you for doing this.

Ghost recon 1 (2001) is by far the best ghost recon of all time. It still holds up to this day and I've recently dived back into it on PC through steam and can't get enough of it. Could you imagine how good of a game it would be if they went back to the original game style today!!!

james bryant I just picked up breakpoint a few weeks ago. After playing the closed beta I said I wouldn’t touch it. It was on sale for 67% off. Why not right? I’m actually really enjoying the gameplay. The story is horrible, the the new ghost experience update really improved the game. There’s still flaws, but I can look past them now that I don’t have a loot system and gear score. I like how you can tweak everything in the settings for HUD, difficulty, etc. Being able to turn on/off AI teammates is nice. Even if I only use them for a distraction if things go south.

Ubisoft had no other option except changing the franchise's core tactical gameplay style to something like a variation of third person perspective of Far cry.. They sales were lower comparative to the previous entries.. Most of the gamers are casual nowadays and they prefer arcady unrealistic fast paced COD style gameplay or fortnite.. Too bad we hardly have any major tactical fps right now except ARMA 3 and Escape from Tarkov..

I love these History Of videos, thanks man!

I remember playing 2001 Ghost Recon as a 5-6 year old kid, i didn't know what the hell i was supposed to do, primarily because i didn't spoke english then but i sure did was trying to play it. I've had fun with it. You made me want to play it again.

Another great video on gaming history. Keep up the good work my dude Nick

I always love nick for doing this. Always watch an entire documents of a franchise

Very detailed and informative video for someone who is new to the series, thanks.

Excellent video! The mechanic I miss the most is the room clearing mechanic in Future Soldier. I wish they brought that back in Wildlands.

My Top 3 1. GR Wildlands - massively underrated game of the year in 2017. I’m a big fan of the cartel narrative and taking down the organization like a real agent, this game also came out during the Netflix show Narcos in full swing and with El Chapo in the news this game felt so relative. Unfortunately BreakPoint doesn’t have the same charm and is not as interesting imo. Also the crossovers with siege, splinter cell, predator, witches, yeti, etc.. this game was truly special. Ghost War was very fun to play as well and the devs always listened to the audience to what needed to be added and changed. 2. GR Future Solider - This was awesome when it came out in 2012 another underrated game for that year. The campaign, the change in style, the graphics, details, gadgets, stealth, the overall feeling of this game was truly an epic experience. You truly felt like a super badass secret squad. I don’t remember much of the PvP in this game but I do remember it being fun the first initial times playing it. 3. GRAW 2 - Just a classic game in the series. My first real experience of online Xbox back in those days. I’ll always remember how real and fun it was to be in a squad with your buddies playing PvP and you’d be talking and all of a sudden you couldn’t hear your friend on the mic because he got killed and went into the death chat - those were good times before party chat killed game chat.

Great video: - Should have mentioned Ghost Recon Classic still lives on PC the original game and its expansion are one of the most heavily modded games ever... tons snd tons of content exists from missions to a fully functioning third person mode -stealth was not “emphasized” starting with Future Soldier... it was present in the original game... not taking suppressed weapons or being engaged by the enemy set off alarms and had enemy employ QRF systems to beat the player... stealth was a priority in the original...

Ghost Recon was one of my favorite games as a kid but I still can't believe it's been 20 years...

Just bought breakpoint and played on advanced difficulty, and I gotta say I honestly think I love it. The amount of customs settings you can play around with now is amazing. You have your division/gun blazing type experience if you want or you can go back to the wildlands type gameplay. And if you want to punish and push yourself to the “breakpoint” you can practically make it like old ghost recon we’re one shot will put you out of commission with often injurys with you having to play as stealthy as possible. Now about the drones people hate. I think you forgot the point of the game and that is to avoid the drones at all costs as you know there killing bullet resistant machine gun strapped robots. First I highly recommended always bringing a high cal. Sniper for flying drones. If drones are really in your way you will either have to make a kill zone by placing mines and hijacking a missile chopper or minigun truck, or cause a explosion on the other side of the compound that will draw their attention while you get your objective done. Now there are parts with forced drone confrontation and those can get annoying but there rare so if you have to lower the difficulty for that bit don’t feel bad. Big tip is to play panther or echolon as one of your classes as there great at stealth, especially panther as you can make yourself invisible to drone making it easy to walk by or place a c4 bundle for a easykill. Sniper (forgot the name of the class) is also a great choice high damage and with npc not knowing exactly were you are just because you shot, they will look around and panic as long as you don’t make yourself easily visible. The game is just harder wildlands which I enjoy. The game is meant to be hard at certain points if your gonna play in wildlands mode. Gone is day were you were the hunter and could drive around freely you will have to stick the dirt and grime of off-road most of the time when traversing. Give breakpoint a try now especially with it’s deep state dlc. I highly enjoyed it, you just gotta set the settings appropriately and have a non-conventional/high preparation way of approaching threats.

You clearly haven’t played very many good games, or you’re a kid.

Great video for the history of one of my favorite franchises. I'm glad Breakpoint is getting back to that GRAW and future soldier style just hopefully more polished then Wildlands.

Another quality stuff nick... Love your content.

If I remember correctly the story for GRAW2 picks up literally right where the first one left off with you in the humvee leaving the city. Always thought that was cool as a kid because I’m pretty sure each game takes place within a 24 hour period of time. No cutscenes or anything just firefight after firefight made me really immersed into the character

Man KZread is great!! To have an operator to dissect a game!! Btw I’m a veteran so I have a real appreciation 🙏🏽

Future Soldier was my first entry into the series. From the looks of it, I'd say its emphasis on stealth made it more tactical that Advanced Warfighter. Wildlands was fun. As a geologist who used to work in the backcountry and off-trail, the exploration of the geography of the map was so much fun, and reminded me of those times. And its level of sandbox gameplay design I feel is unprecedented.

Wow truly amazing video! Great job!

This music is taking me back. Nice vid

Ghost Recon 2001 was something... gold

I like Red Storm Entertainment version of Ghost Recon. Tactical gameplay with cover mechanics with squad commands is the perfect idea on paper, but sadly they want to make a casual experience. Proof of this, GR: Break point has microtransactions on gear, in order to force players to skip the grind fest due to its The Division looter shooter, and its RPG lite elements.

the story in wildlands is actually pretty good. most of the story is actually found within the video, audio, and written kingslayer files. this might be seen to some as exseive or out of place but to me seems more realistic as why would we, as soldiers sent in to stealthily/ anonymously kill of the cartel heads, be told everything out of the box. so when people play the game I do recommend looking closer at these files as they fill out the rest of the story

People tend to forget that the name is “Ghost Recon”. Reconnaissance. Seeking out information. Your average gamer is probably not going to take that into consideration and not pick up anything other than what they’re told to pick up.

Grew up playing this game, enlisted playing this game, got out and still playing this series... It rarely crosses my mind unless im playing it, but these are low key amazing games, they have a specific audience, and they develop them for it. I just picked up breakpoint with a few mates and we are having a blast!

Now that I've had a chance to play Breakpoint, I've since gone back and started Wildlands again. Wildlands ended up being a really good game and while Ubi made some good changes to Breakpoint they failed to bring the same world feel that WL had and that's a noticeable difference. Since Ubi will continue to update Breakpoint, it may end up being as good as Wildlands, but it's got some catching up to do.
