How very droll… I’ll skip explaining the entire story for the sake of not writing a 30,000-word essay. It’s now up to you and your mate Hendricks to track them down and bring them to justice. Play the game to figure that stuff out.Ī few missions later and it turns out that Taylor and his team have been compromised by some A.I thingy (still not entirely sure on that) and that they’ve essentially gone rogue. It lets you do all sorts of crazy stuff, too, but that’s not important right now. It also allows you to hop into these crazy, realistic simulations to get your trained up in the art of kicking arse with style. Taylor also explains that you’ve now got yourself a snazzy new DNI implant that allows you and your mates to interact with one another to see what the others see to speak to each other using brainwaves. You’re like Darth Vader, except you’re a good guy. Weird, yeah? Here, Taylor explains that your limbs are dog food but you’ve now been given wicked mechanical limbs. Once you’re in the safe confines of a warm hospital bed, you wake up… In a simulation. You don’t get a high five, you bloody stump.
They save the day and get you back to safety, most likely high-fiving each other on the way.
You can still spit at the machine and hope a decent greeny lands on its battery, but it’s not looking good at this point. By the end of the first mission you’re no longer able to do either due to some big-arse robot ripping your arms off and casting them aside like banana peels. You shoot, you throw grenades – you get the picture. Okay, so the story starts with you, Player, being a normal dude with the abilities of… a normal dude. Also, as much as we at The Games Cabin love our content being shared, please don’t share this with a buddy if they haven’t finished the story yet. It’s fascinating stuff, truly.įrom here on out, expect major, and I mean MAJOR spoilers in relation to the game’s story mode. But we talked about it over a few beers, whiskeys, and whatever else we could get our hands on and spent a good evening sat around exploring what Black Ops III’s ending really means. Not with me, mind, I can’t be doing with that four-player stuff. However, days have since passed me by and I’ve had the chance to discuss it with mates who’ve played the game, too. At the time I was a wee bit confused and, in all honesty, a bit disappointed.
A few days ago I finished up Call of Duty: Black Ops III’s campaign mode.
