Not too sure, but in MW2 we got lots of close up with Sheperd himself which I saw as a total different dynamics. He was a direct commander of the player, here with Laswel and Graves and even Ghost still alive we have more distance from this Sheperd. So unlike which, in just one game, that character was complete while this one isn't. Also that Sheperd was on a path of revenge while the current one is about his own skin.

18:11 It's brief, but I like how they humanize Shadow Company a little bit by instead of screaming at the kid, or worse, killing him along with the rest of those getting executed, Graves orders one of his men to get the kid out of sight so he doesn’t have to witness the horror. One of the mercs even gently tries to calm the kid down. 19:40 Another good example is the mercs being total dude-bros where they're "oo-rah" is instead literally just "yup-yup" and fist bumping each other. Graves to me, at the end of the day, felt less like an evil villain and more like someone acting in his own selfish interests. He doesn’t kill civilians, gives 141 a chance to peacefully walk away, and clearly cares about his own men. I could see him getting a redemption arc in the next game if he’s still alive.

Graves was so damn cool. Loved his attitude and humor throughout the game. And I really like how he called Soap and Ghost “brother” even after he betrayed them. It showed that he really liked them, but he was loyal to the man who paid him. Graves cared about his men, and was ruthless to his enemies. “Hook, line, and fuckin’ sinker! You know I love that shit Shadows!” “Yup yup!”

The devs really didn't know how much we would like this character or they wouldn't have killed him off so quick. He's so stereotypically American, but in the most bad ass way. Add some great charisma and him commanding a group of U.S mercenary vets and you have one of the most likeable and interesting characters in Call of Duty. They need to bring him back.

I think this is one of the best campaigns in COD history because how creative Infinity Ward was with every mission putting us in new scenarios and not just mindless shooting even if the game felt kinda short . Only problem with the story was that you can see the obvious betrayal a mile away , they could have made Graves a third playable character and gave player a choice in decision making of being a Mercenary and choose between the trust of your allies or what's best for business in given critical situations . That could have given the campaign more length and replaybility but fuuuck...these days AAA developers are not that creative are they?

Subtleties like these make it obvious that he is involved if he is avoiding who the missiles are from. Why ignore who sent them, that would be useful unless you're involved or the cause. Love the hints for newer players

I love this games campaign and I still find it pretty realistic/convincing how he at least gave them a chance to retire and move on with their lives after this. Makes it all the more believable and heart breaking, because they could’ve walked away and spared themselves the trouble, but at the cost of saving his men. Just how shepherd was willing to go all out to save his reputation on losing the missiles even going as far to order the executions of innocents, we see a lot of that in the real modern world. This modern warfare series really does put the characters in some hard realistic scenarios with tough calls and consequences for either sides of decisions. Even shepherd did this with making captain price look hypocritical “we get dirty so the world stays clean” “sometimes you got to do bad in order to do some good” kinda sucks being on the other end of the baton eh?

Especially because the storylines are good

knowing what Shadow Company did in modern warfare 2 it was fully expected Graves would betray ghost and task force 141 in here. they were highly trained mercs hired by general shepherd to be his own little task force. since Shepherd was a military general. there were laws in place for certain. things you can and cannot do. that's why he went rogue. because his mercenaries can do things for him. now both modern warfare 2,s have a different story. general shepherd started shadow Company to kill Makarov and get revenge for what he did. he wanted to be the hero that stopped Makarov and ww3. that's why he turned on ghost and roach during loose ends in the original. shepherd was mad about Makarov detonating the nukes in cod 4. now this Sheppard voiced by the legendary transformers general. Glenn morshower and also the OG overlord in MW2. his character is mad because he let down his men to cover himself because of the failed delivery. since the Russian pmcs took the missiles and gave them to Hassan. shadow Company is a tactical group of highly trained mercs working for Sheppard. they usually wear all black tact gear with advanced weaponry. riot shields, blacked out vehicles. even regular military humvees. they all carry walkie talkies and are in private smaller squads. they commit war crimes too.

When the trailer came out with general shepherd’s voice I knew that the character behind it was the same from the movie “Transformers” but I totally forgot about another fact that this wasn’t his first time 😅

I started to love this guy but when he betrayed us it made me so mad we lost a good character 😢

“I want the missiles, I want the target and I want Hassan. You’ve got 10 seconds before I show you the difference between the military and me.”

"-Or i'm gonna show you the difference between the Military and me." has to be Graves' best line imo

Something I just noticed during the Hassan interrogation; when he asks Graves where the missiles they stole were going, Graves dodges the question and Shepherd tries to change the subject, saying he “doesn’t care where they came from”. We don’t know it yet at this point in the story, but Graves and Shepherd both know that Hassan having the missiles to begin with is their fault, and they want to keep it a secret.

I found him to be one of the most satisfyingly well animated characters in the game. His mocap facial expressions are on par with DMC5 mocap faces.

Graves Texan accent is 🤌

Wish we got a full length on the ground mission as Graves or another Shadow Company merc, they're badass. Yup-yup!

Graves coulda been a sick member of 141

He was such a good character. Really liked him so I found it a shame he turned on us in the end

I hope he be a playable operator

Ghost sounds like an older version of his voice from the original MW2 even though he is voiced by a different voice actor but his voice sounds similar.

look how they massacred my boy. they turned a brutal but reasonable man that cares about his men and allies into a clown in a tank.

Some say shepherd in this universe is less charismatic than shepherd in the original universe. But it gives me chills when he said "where the missile was coming from doesnt matter". Was a hint of himself turning soon imo.

Graves is an absolute unit and seems to be an effective leader. It’s a damn shame that he turns on you but the best villains make you wish they are on your side. I’d have a beer with him provided an opportunity. I wouldn’t mind seeing a Shadow Company DLC expansion for the campaign. I’d imagine they and Shepherd have a long history filled with potential content. Maybe as a lead up to knowing more about the chase against Makarov. Looking forward to Sandman and/or Alex returning for MW3 in 2024/25.

I don't see how he is the bad guy. The missiles were Sheppard's fault, he put himself on the ground with his men and destroyed the second missile, he checked on Alejandro after it blew up, he detains the mexican special forces instead of killing them because of a possible connection to el sin nombre which makes sense considering how many mexican LEO are in the cartels pockets. He gives Soap, Ghost and Alejandro a chance to walk away and could've easily finished off Soap but doesn't and kills corrupt cops in the city, only targeting the main characters after the fire fight at the gate, did I miss something ?

He still detained Alejandro’s men. He says they can walk away, but did he really think acting like a dick and being snarky about capturing Allie’s was gonna end any way beyond a gun fight? It doesn’t help that he doesn’t even try to de escalate the situation. He just says “this is my base now, fuck off.” Doesn’t give any explanation, and when things get frisky he immediately goes for intimidation. Lastly, he’s very patronizing during his boss battle. Doesn’t seem remorseful for having to kill Soap and mocks Rudy. Loved him right until his betrayal though.

The AC130 and oil rig mission won me over for graves. Please bring him back as a playable character. Respect that he has a realistic southern accent and personality, would be a shame for him to die in such a wack ending.

I kinda wish they made him the character that was supposed to betray TF141 through Shepard orders but he doesn’t go through with it and becomes an enemy to Shadow company

Shadow company has a lot of mercs. If Graves was a founding member/own the company I can see Shepard trying to have him replaced by one of his money hungry lieutenants who sold him out. Mercs become mercs either because they couldn’t leave the military life behind, for the money or it’s all they really know. In a profession that the only morals are that of the dollar bill, trust is a much more valued commodity. Trust is what with your men/your commander is what separates you as a comrade in arms from a expendable like a hand grenade. Hearing a commander like Graves got wasted by one of the LTs and took over would have at least made several squads or platoon’s worth of men leave if Shadow Company is a battalion sized asset. Greaves would have had men on his side to jump ship immediately and more on the inside willing to work with him.

Nothing like a handsome, charismatic asshole with memorable voice lines to sway that meter from villain to thinking he's actually somewhat one of the good guys. Really can sell the world a lie, so long as it comes in a pretty package.

His betrayal hits almost as hard as Shepards in the original MW2. Especially since Graves actually fights alongside us and seems to have a sort of trust with Ghost and Soap, only to show his true colors. Shepherd was always in the background giving orders, so the shock wasn’t in relation to him, it was the shooting of Roach and Ghost. In this case, the shock comes from Graves seeming like a trustworthy guy but in reality he was the worst type of mercenary.

[The "betrayal" scene in a sane world] Graves "General Shepard wants us to take over the Hassan operation." Price "I don't like it, but okay, it's his call." *roll credits*

The color of Graves' name changing from blue to red in 15:48 is a fun little attention to detail.

What makes it even better is that it doesn’t turn until he mentions Shepard’s involvement in the situation. He betrays them well before that but only when he confirms Shepard is behind this does he become an enemy.

Anyone else think he becomes uncharacteristically different after the betrayal? He loses all the charm after and just becomes an asshole.

I don't think Graves is a terrible guy. I just think he was taking orders from a terrible guy. He's all about completing the mission, but he does care deeply for his team, so he's not really all for money or power. 19:55 You can tell how concerned he was when his men were in danger and requested support for them from Shepard. Would've love to explore of his background story as well.

I love myself a loveable villain. Probably my second favorite character in the game after Alejandro and that cartel mommy Valeria. Love his chaotic chill mannerisms and cynicism. Not that I support him, I just love how his brutality and hostility to whoever stands on his way is done. So far "Don't do that. Don't. Do. That." is my favorite line, of all the things he said.
