History Teacher Explains Call of Duty: World at War

[@hoodedbeasts]

Answers to a few common questions: Q: Why are you censoring the swastikas? A: As a history teacher it is never ideal to censor history. It's important that people see history as it is, without filters. As a relatively new content creator on KZbin I'm testing the waters to see what is acceptable under the terms of use. I decided to censor the swastikas in the first minute to see if KZbin would allow the uncensored swastikas later in the video. I haven't had any issues so far, so I'll try to avoid censoring in the future. Q: Do you show this video to your students? A: No. In the classroom I make references to videogames and use different types of media to engage my students when appropriate, but it wouldn't be right to use my platform as a teacher to promote my KZbin channel instead of focusing on rigorous instruction. Q: Can you do this same type of video for _______________? A: I am always open to suggestions and feedback! Please feel free to leave your ideas in the comments :) I really didn't expect these videos to do so well, thank you all so much! I'm extremely grateful for your time, support, constructive criticism, and engagement. See you in the next video!

Man this video was awesome this is the game I grew up playing as a kid and many times over into adulthood. It made me a big war history buff or at least when it comes to ww2. I used to watch a ton of documentaries, movies and read up on it. Although, I never clearly understood COD:WAW's timeline until now so thank you! Also I really liked that you cited the different books you drew on in the video!

I also want to point out that importantly another war crimes committed during the Pacific War was the Interment of Japanese Americans back home, In February 1942 only weeks after Pearl Harbor was attacked 120,000 Japanese American citizens were locked up in camps under FDR's Executive Order 9066 which is now seen as a grave mistake due to anti Japanese racism mentioned in this video and suspicion of sabotage and disloyalty

Fun fact on the mission “Burn Em Out” you can hear imperial soldiers yelling “Api” “Api” or “Panas” meaning hot in Indonesian when imperial soldiers are being lit on fire by American troops. This implies that Japan had Indonesian soldiers in the imperial army during the battle of Peleliu. Small details like that shows the creativity and passion the developers had when putting their hard work of implementing small details in World At War’s development. In my opinion small details like that gives world at war a pretty authentic capture of the horrors of World War II. I truly believe we will never get a game like world at war again since it would most likely be censored out by today’s society.

[@hoodedbeasts]

Wow what a horrifying detail, great catch! Thanks for sharing that

[@queuedjar4578]

A good details, but it doesn't really make sense if you pay too much attention and realize that those burning japanese soldiers were speaking Japanese in completely different voices just before getting burned lol

[@kristiant96]

[@boinqity4621]

my favorite of the small details is that as you storm the reichstag the soldiers go from regular army to wounded fanatical ss soldiers yelling nazi shit at you. really gives the impression that germany was desperate and couldn't have won the war. it was a matter of when they lost, not if

[@MrStrangerthenever]

Indonesian here, just wanna clarify that while "Panas" does means hot, the word "Api" means fire. Sometimes I forget that the Japanese were in my country during the war and drafted the locals to fight in the Pacific and possibly other southeast Asian countries. That said, knowing this... I'll probably be weirded out if I ever replay this game but it won't stop me from using the flamethrower if given lol

Grim fact: in Heart of the Reich and Downfall, as you make your way closer and closer the the Reichstag and even enter it, you start to see German soldiers who have several bandages on them. Some are wrapped around their arms, others on their legs, and even around their heads. It actually made me think back to that cutscene of Reznov talking about the old, the weak, and the young, and how they were all called to arms. Extremely dark. Also, the end cutscene of the game doesn’t feel like you won and beat the enemy like other COD campaigns do. The music is somber and even a bit quiet, where it also showed that message of the fatality numbers of the war, and how deadly it was. Stuff like this is why I absolutely love WAW’s campaign. It’s truly depicts the horrors of war, and how destructive it truly is, no matter the era or period of time.

[@sylvananas7923]

Also in Downfall many german models are smaller, they are meant to be younger boys aka hitler youth/volksturm teens thrown alongside the wounded for a last stand

[@jesster9532]

I wish TreyArch would go back to the gritty World at War style. I know their intend with this game in particular was like you said, to show the "horrors of war". But I do miss the amputations and realism in gameplay. Bless Black Ops1 for continuing this story. Still hoping for a remaster bundle pack

TheFrosty's video is better in basically every way since it does report on the actual history in specific detail while being appreciative of the game's overall approach to history. He only really fumbled when trying to integrate an add at the beginning with the accuracy details (which he later removed).

Correction about the Reichstag, Hitler never gave speeches inside the Reichstag, as the building was burnt to a crisp when Hitler assumed full control over the German people. (Hitler also just didn't like the building) The room with the giant eagle was not in the Reichstag, but in the building opposite of it, the Kroll Opera House. The room with the eagle in game is based off of the real debate chamber that was inside the Reichstag, but the devs took the giant eagle from the Opera House and placed it in there for dramatic affect. So it's a mistake on WaW's end but man was this game so good. Great video!!

[@hoodedbeasts]

Thank you for the feedback! This is why I love talking about history, I always learn something new :)

[@davidherene6365]

It's not a mistake. They deliberately put it there. Besides its a historical fact that the Soviets wanted the Reichstag since its the seat of the government. And the Soviets wanted it for that exact reason. So no its not a mistake on the devs end but its a symbolic representation of an Empire'a downfall. Hence the mission's "Downfall". It wouldn't make sense to show them raiding and fighting inside the Kroll Opera House since its not historically factual.

[@davidherene6365]

Also whats amazing abt WaW is that people have to literally do a in depth forensic investigation of every single detail in the game just to put it under scrutiny. To criticize the historical inaccuracies of WaW you have to chereypick the smallest sht

One of my favorite things was the quotes after you died in battle in the campaign. Made it really sink in.

Edit: also I forgot to mention this is my favorite ending to a Call of Duty game. The finals scenes showing the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, followed by the bell tolling with the message of 60 million people killed during the most deadly conflict in history sent shivers down my spine as a kid, the game showed us that war is not glorious and fun like in the games.

This. This is my favorite game of all time, and you explained 100% why. Little known bit about this game too, if you do end up ending the German soldiers that gave up during the Russian missions, Chernov’s journal will change to reflect your actions. If you leave them, he calls you a heroic and if you end the soldiers, he calls you a monster. I never felt like a monster, until Chernov pointed out to me that my ways were cruel. Although, I never experienced that as a kid, and when I did as an adult, it surprised me. Made me think about my approach through things. It’s not just about making your way through the city, it’s also about maintaining your humanity. Edit: adding thoughts.

There’s a lot of inaccuracy to the game but it does it in a very creative way, the Germans are using M2 Flamethrowers throughout the campaign and in the mission “Vendetta” there are Tiger Tanks shown to be present even though tiger tanks were produced late 1942 yet were deployed to the Don Front in support of the German drive to Stalingrad in 1942. However, the battalion arrived too late to participate in Operation Winter Storm, Panzer IV’s would’ve been historically accurate instead. That’s just my thoughts on the details, In conclusion it shows Tiger tanks present in Stalingrad in September of 1942, Yet Tiger tanks arrived 3 months later narrowly missing action of the urban combat of Stalingrad.

This game sparked my interest in history. My mom wouldn’t let me play it because it was rated M so I just searched everything I could about the game, which led to me watching endless ww2 movies and documentaries I became obsessed with the eastern front.

Bro I've just found the channel of Yours And the level of professionalism considering you're doing it for passion is suprising Keep up with the good work Also I really hope that in the future we'll live to see another game alike World War cause it described and portrayed what the War really is Horror Bloody, unfair, random acts of honor and hecking horrific scenes In the war time there are no heroes

Now I'm curious about a what if scenario presented by the CoD World at War Zombies mode of the alternate history of WW2 Germany discovering an extraterrestrial element capable of effectively resurrecting the dead and attempting to weaponize it as seen in Zombies mode lore, how the Allies in WW2 would realistically respond or react to such a threat?

This deserves to go viral. Glad to see you get a solid views bump from this.
