Let's be honest. The real reasons why the same video game critics that bashed Shellshock nam 67 yet love Spec Ops The Line is nothing to do with mortality. It's all hating consumers of the industry they work in. Spec Ops the line meta narrative is attacking video game players for enjoying war games like call of duty and battlefield. Meanwhile, Shellshock wanted to tell an actual war story. Shellshock users score are one of the early examples of the disparity between professional industry critics and video game players. We see all the time on rotten tomatoes today.

Sometimes those days feel so distant, as if they were in another life time of another person.

Dude I have been looking for this game for almost 20 years. I knew it was a Vietnam war game because of the hats that they wore, I recognized them from movies like We Were Soldiers and Full Metal Jacket. So I kept searching for war games for the original xbox and everything I found just didn't resemble what I had deep in my memories, until tonight when suddenly I got the urge to search third-person shooters for the og xbox and this was in the top 5. I must have been around 5 or 6 years old when this game came out and I specifically remember my uncle babysitting me one weekend night and he was playing it, most likely on a harder difficulty as all of my uncles usually did, they never had the patience to see it through to the end but as a kid I had all of the time in the world. Eventually he finally gave up and handed the controller to me and then went to sleep. I remember playing in this large open field, someone kept calling my name, which was probably Walker and telling me to "give up". I tried killing everyone, I tried hiding, I tried running straight through but no matter what I did I just kept dying, there was an endless wave of enemies and I tried pressing every button but I couldn't surrender. I don't know how long this went on for until my mom came to pick me up. Ever since then I've been trying to find this game and now that I have I really want to play through it to see if I can get to that level again to confirm 100% for myself that it was a real memory and not something I had just made up.

No that s what personal bias is.. . Cause this game was objectively bad for so many reasons. Vietcong was the best Vietnam game.

Great video. You described this all really well. This is actually a good analysis video for the Vietnam War or war in general. It's a shame that the Vietnam War has disappeared so much from our minds and pop culture. Especially when they made like a million World War II games. And certainly a lot of the war games are mindlessly enthusiastic and maybe patriotic. In addition to all the more serious matters, the Vietnam War was of great cultural significance. These were the days of the cultural revolution. Many American GIs at that time looked different from how any other soldiers have ever looked and will ever look. US soldiers aren't allowed to look like that anymore. Part of the problem is that so many of them were draftees and really didn't belong there or want to be there. They would decorate their uniforms and equipment with all sorts of things, write stuff all over everything, had death cards, countless custom-made patches and would wear those bead necklaces and other accoutrements. I have a pretty strong interest in the subject, but in addition to all the more serious material, there is plenty of visually stylistic stuff there to grab your attention. A unique event in the course of human history, to say the least.

This game is awesome. It gets so much unwarranted flak but it really is the most brutal Vietnam game.

You have a great review man, an appreciation to a realistic masterpiece

You don't have bad videos or too long videos there actually perfect Langth

I still have my physical copy I kept a lot of my PlayStation 2, got all the way up to King Kong, a lot of people I knew didn't like this game called it crap. It was fun I played it all the way through I believe.

My grandfather is a Vietnam vet and passed when I was one. My grandmother rarely talked about his experiences over there but when i used to play this around her she would open up and tell some of his stories. War is hell in any sense.

I still have my copy of shell-shock. I remember playing it when I was young and to be honest it was super hard but even kid me wondered why the villager didn't see me as the hero since games like medal of honor and CoD did. It wasn't til I was older did I fully understood the horrors of war and the stories my great uncle told me of ww2. He talked about chasing the Germans into Russia and finding frozen bodies of Germans who died on the run cold and hungry. He said not a single one had been shot, they died around small fires hugging the man next to him. It's ugly and brutal, and your take on it is spot on

Played this when I was 6 and certain cutscenes stuck with me until I played through it again recently, psycho getting hit with a rpg rocket or the lieutenant getting chopped up with machetes and the torture scene with mama san, but I never remembered all the dead mutilated soldiers in the levels or how messed up psycho and monty actually are during the game

Appreciate the thoughtfulness of your review so far and the calling of the press proto-Communists within the first ten minutes. Citing Tim O'Brien's perspective on the matter of a war story flawed. Not for your citation but because of the perspective O'Brien presents. He presumes a position of morality by saying war is in all cases removed from morality, then presents it as evil and inhumane. It is better to understand war as the Greeks did: arriving like the Seasons and just another part of life, sometimes the most important. It is also doubtful that O'Brien would call all wars "insane" or lacking morality, presumably his perspective is unique to Vietnam. In a sense, he is only offering more of the prevailing historical interpretation about Vietnam and all wars: War is bad , the Vietnam war was bad and cyncial, etc., and that speaks more to society's current engagement with safetyism and general "Oikophobia" than it does to the war itself. The perspective that war is ultimately absent of moral considerations is however a worthwhile perspective to consider, and if someone considers themselves a humanist, probably somwthing they should ponder with great gravity. But historical accounts of warriors and fighting-men exist enough to counteract the idea that it drives them insane or it is absent of reasoned purpose. A closing thought on this thread is that popular morality as it is conceived today is often some form of universal humanism. That is not necessarily "morality" as it was understood historically, nor even in the whole of the USA during the Vietnam war. It's a product of the global interconnected system after World War II and eventuallly end of the Cold War, but gets projected onto past eras and past human beings. All in all, it's worth considering that these things can change in perception, and O'Brien's is firmly very modern or post-modern. Meanwhile the image of the warrior as a desperate animal clawing for survival in an insane world is also unfair I think, some men spiritually are warriors and seek to be in the conflict. The disconnect arises with modern industrialized warfare where the scales of "fortune" vs. "skill/capability" are so heavily weighted toward "fortune"(or random chance) that a man's survival rests more on his circumstances surrounding him than his skills, and that disempowers him and drives him insane. But that is arguably more a product of technology, and will come and go as technology waxes and wanes, and as men overcome it. Arguably this was happening in the Cold War: the steady threat of Nuclear Proliferation (technologically-achieved apocalypse) forced the USA and USSR to instead turn back to the drawing board, and gave rise to a protological elite warrior caste (in the form of Special Forces, Operators, and those adjacent) that instead found new agency in a deadly, highly chartered, but ultimately free new battlespace. This is not dissimilar to the rise of the first Hoplites, the Marian-standardized Legionary of Rome, the medieval European Knight, the Japanese Samurai of the Warring States period, the first Stormtroopers and Trench Raiders of World War I, or what have you. This is to say, that elite warrior spirit that has existed historically reasserts itself even in periods where it was once extinct, or declining. Of course this is only from a secondary perspective, not a Veteran's, only an observer of history, so make of it what you will. Either way, Shellshock offers a raw look at the war. A bit of a bizarre one, coming from Dutchmen and clearly being inspired by American movies about the war, but still honest, and as you say, without much commentary beyond what the player draws. You have a good, articulate style of a thinking-man. I have subscribed.

I need to scratch my nostalgic itch to play this game again. I always hoped that a digital version would become available of the studio decides to release a collections bundle, kinda like how conflict: desert storm(conflict: Vietnam wasn’t included which was a let down but desert storm was just a huge throwback

I found your channel through a chance recommendation of the feral shitbull story. Was very pleased to find an out of nowhere personal longer form take on a video game here. I love this kind of thing. I'm happy to listen to you for this whole time. But I do disagree with you on the game for a very simple reason. You attribute intentions to *the game*. Shellshock '67 wants me to feel this way or that way. *The Game* doesn't want anything. It's an inert piece of media. If intentions exist they exist in the minds of those creators. If this game is to be appraised as art we have to consider that an artist was behind it. And this is the essential piece of your appraisal that's missing. And if we actually go looking for answers, the picture we get is unfortunately not flattering for Shellshock '67. This game was the first effort of the company 'Guerilla Games'. They are a Dutch company, as you say. But that's where your analysis ended. More specifically, they are the Dutch company who made... wait for it... The Killzone and Horizon: Zero Dawn series of games. Not exactly people known for rich or coherent visions, or nuance. In fact, looking at their other works, it seems like the critics of the time were in fact right. Either some massive change in sensibilities took place after Shellshock, or far more likely, Shellshock *was* in fact a meaningless amalgamation of pop culture cliches assembled by tasteless idiots who believe in nothing, like all of their subsequent games. Killzone fascinates some for its superficial aesthetics and vague gestures towards meaning or nuance, but all attempts to dig further lead to disappointment due to the simple fact it meant nothing. It was all hollow gesturing. One friend has told me there were enjoyable elements and sparks of human interest in Horizon: Zero Dawn, which were then completely trodden upon and left behind with Horizon: Forbidden West. From what I see, the base critical read on this game, dumb as game critics tend to be, was correct. I'm open to being proven wrong. But if this game meant something, tell me, it meant something to who? Was there a certain creative lead who you think was saying these things? Who was he? Where did he go? Is there an interview where he talked about this? Can you name a single person who worked on this game? I don't mean to be critical. I am to correct your already existing appreciation. There's nothing wrong with liking something that is in fact simple. My own personal passion case. I am a really big fan of *Shellshock 2: Blood Trails*. The British pseudo-sequel to this game made by guys who were manic fans of 28 Weeks Later and had no serious intentions beyond making their own 28 Weeks Later set during the Vietnam War. I *have* looked up the creative staff behind this game. There's no serious auteur visionary to it, but there are a few consistent figures at the top of Rebellion Derby productions who always seem to be trying to force zombies into things. *Someone* was passionate about *something* behind this game. He has no message. He just loves zombies. Awesome. I actually intend to make a video on that game myself. I greatly appreciate this video as far as it's a personal perspective. But where you sabotage yourself is ironically what you think was wrong with the game's reception. You're trying to give a prestige look at the thing to the extent you're ignoring your own eyes. You're projecting for an imagined audience who are judgmental in a certain kind of way. And looking to redeem something you already appreciated by trying to cast it in a light you think looks better. Now as for the game itself, like many western games of the 2000s, it may have had apparently interesting elements, but these were unfortunately mostly incidental. This game's brutality was not a statement. It was an accident. Your bringing up 'How to tell a true war story' is interesting, it raises a kind of moral question in video games of what people were doing. We actually got quite a lot of not at all moralising games about violence back during this naive era of the medium, but I think the tell, both about humanity and these people as artists, is in what happened when a critical eye was cast upon them. They all folded and started making dishonest and corrective works of the kind described in the book as soon as they were first judged. This is an interesting picture of humanity. We instinctively get honest about violence when left to be ourselves, it's what men have always done. It's fun. We aren't even thinking about it. Then we need to reject ourselves and sanitise our fantasies and dreams once the forces of civilisation start scrutinising us. I believe that there may have been a few, or at least one seriously self aware war and violence themed work made in this naive era that actually knew what it was doing and embraced the nature of the things. But I'm not convinced Shellshock was one of them. I think they were just copying movies. Oliver Stone is a man who does not moralise at war (people who think you're meant to hate Barnes don't understand Oliver Stone), I think they were mostly copying him without appreciating or thinking about him. I may reply to myself if there's more I really want to say, but for now my primary question is, if Guerilla Games meant all of this with Shellshock, what the hell happened to them?

@PapaTokarev

2 ай бұрын

Probably the most thoughtful, albeit critical, comment I’ve ever gotten on my channel. I don’t know enough about games generally, or Guerrilla specifically, to answer your question to a moral certainty. But here’s my spitballing: I find it impossible to believe that personnel changes didn’t occur between Shellshock and subsequent projects, some of which were very likely on the creative side. Even if no such turnover occurred, (respectfully) I think it’s reductive and misguided to suppose that a bad (overall) studio, or team, or individual artist cannot produce, on occasion, blips of brilliance. It happens all the time in music. Film. Take the inquiry out of the domain of consumer art. The night Buster Douglas beat Mike Tyson as a 42:1 underdog, he found some magic moment in which his personal motivation and determination elevated him beyond the limits of his simple athletic ability. I reject the premise that SN67 is inanimate, cold, and devoid of the capacity to signify and compel feeling. That’s not how art works-at least, it’s not how I consume it. Stephen King said that artists aren’t always in control of their art. Sometimes the interpreter understands the work better than its creator(s). That may be an element of the disconnect we’re experiencing here. My parting remark (for now) is this: If we’re going to view Guerrilla and its catalog as a monolith, okay. We have to be willing to acknowledge that SN67 was not a commercial or critical smash hit. With that understanding, I submit to you that it is very likely the case that the changes made with respect to approach and intent in later projects were made with a sort of plain fiduciary self-interest. Edit: if we agree on nothing else, Shellshock II is a lot more fun than it gets credit for.

@@PapaTokarev I do think Guerilla Games were onto something here. As far as they were it was what most action games were onto during this period I call "naive". If they got further and truer than most I think it was largely by chance, or accident. Not necessarily a mark against them or the work. As King says, works can get away from their creators in a good way. This game has things going for it. Again, I think what we make when we're not so self-conscious can be quite enlightening to look at. The naive video game was an honest one. I believe that western video games were better at covering violence when they weren't thinking so hard about it. Where western video games really fall down is what they do once they start thinking. The Japanese are a far more honest culture, and they have made many deliberate and thoughtful games about violence which don't fight themselves or lie. Metal Gear Solid says things so shockingly politically incorrect about violence and humanity that most western observers prefer to hallucinate a more comfortable anti-war plot over the top of what's in front of them because actually listening to Liquid Snake is so disconcerting to westen sensibilities. I can actually believe that Guerilla were far more serious when they made Shellshock 67. There are plenty of clear examples of studios and individuals in gaming turning on themselves around this point in time and resolving to never get serious or challenging about violence again. Many staff at Volition explicitly said this after Saints Row 2. I don't reject the idea of Guerilla having more integrity at the past. My challenge is meant *as a challenge*. We should look if we care. Find out who wrote/directed this game. See if we can find them talking about it. Sometimes this can be hard. But you might be surprised at how much we often *can* find about artists if we look.

I wonder if @ProtectedPrimate has read it. If you love Shellshock, it's a must-read. It's one of those books that sticks with you, in both good and bad ways. Vietnam is my primary field of historical study, yet no matter how much I read, that book still stands out. It's also unique in being set in August of 1970, during the final American-led combat operations of the war in the A Shau Valley.

Haha. Thanks. I think.

How the hell do you drop out of school after just the 8th grade??? I thought that was very under the legal age.

I failed the 9th grade. A week before my sixteenth birthday, I stopped showing up. 16 is the legal age to drop out. So the last grade I finished was 8th.

@@PapaTokarev Interesting. I was also a very poor and troubled student. Dropped out halfway through my junior year of high school. Things were going nowhere for me. I originally thought that you had to wait until you had at least finished the 11th grade to drop out. But then I was told that you could drop out at 17. Either way, I lived in a small town and went to a tiny little unregulated private school. But I was just kind of too old and disfunctional for anyone to care about by then. Never heard of anyone dropping out so early though. Great video. I'm going to leave a real comment about it.

They don’t make like these anymore

Men of Valor is the best Vietnam Game

Try Vietcong from 2003

I may be biased, but I think Conflict: Vietnam is better

May have made a mistake on that one. Not too big to admit it. In either case, Guerrilla does not support the game or make it available for purchase in any way. It's still been abandoned, which was the point.

​@@PapaTokarevAnd it's a shame, because a lot of the technology that was used to make Shellshock was then used to make the first Killzone, and many of the design decisions followed, from the hazy environments to the often inaccurate aiming and drawn out gunfights. This game helped launch them into bigger things. It's a good game, and I feel they should recognize that and be proud of it.

Vietcong was better imo.

Emulator

Worst game i ever played, and the gametime was about 4-5 hours, remember finishing it and being so disappointed i wasted 60 bucks on it back in 04.

Game suck best vietnam No way

@papatokarev good work👍😎👍 Men of Valor (2004)

Real life is offensive. It's sad the internet snowflakes get to set the "example" on how humanity thinks. Sheep to the slaughter
