How MachineGames Should Make Wolfenstein 3

5. Return To BJ Blazkowicz's Story

While it may seem obvious to say that the game should return to BJ as the protagonist, there's more to it than just the simplicity of BJ as a fun hero.

Players have played, at minimum, 2 games with BJ Blazkowicz. That is if they have only played the two games in MachineGames's reboot series - there are many more dating back to the original, 1981 Castle Wolfenstein.

He's a hero that has developed with the audience that has played him and, in the recent games at least, has become a character with deep emotions and dialogue.

In New Colossus especially, BJ has come to accept his incoming death and talks at great lengths to Caroline, or rather he directs his speech to the dead Caroline, about her recent death and his ever-present incoming one. BJ is a character with soul, a soul you truly feel in MachineGames's series.

This soul wasn't found in BJ's daughters Zofia and Jessie in Youngblood.

Aside from a few loading screen shots of them messing with each other and a handful of jokes, these characters felt incredibly flat compared to the developed character of BJ from previous games.
