Same or different universe/timeline, it's still a great game. They own all the IP now so.īut either way, I guess it really doesnt matter. I myself even entertained the idea of them somehow using a time travel, trans dementional portal plot line to somehow tie into the DooM series. I thought a major clue was the option to follow on the Fergus or Wyatt timeline, two similar but divergent universe. I cant say I really know if the developers even considered this when writting the story or if Im just reading something in that isnt meant to be there. I just feel there are subtle differences that are clues that you may in fact be in an alternate universe. Before the game was released I actually assumed that the plot of the game would involve time travel/alternate universe jumping to set history right. I'm in no way hostile towards you or your opinion on the game, I'm just trying to understand why you consider New Order to be an alternate timeline instead of a sequel when it directly references previous games including one entire cutscene devoted to reminding players of Wolf 09 events. One could say that any sequel takes place in an alternate reality to the original. Not trying to argue, I guess its a matter of opinion.

In an all but infinite multiverse many universe/timeline will be similar if not almost identical, while in others events would be far removed from each other by decissions made by indivudials that differ from universe to universe. The only retconning that occurs between the games is the switching of voice actors. New Order is a sequel to RtCW & Wolf 09 with recurring characters, continuing plotlines and direct references to previous events. Again BJ mentions swimming through Deathshead's X-Labs in 43 and Deathshead himself is up to his old super soldier program after the failure of the veil projects. References to RtCW are much sparcer but there are a few. Deathshead's bio page also mentions him barely escaping the zeppelin crash (ending of Wolfenstein 2009) and the near death experience giving him a new found joy in life. This isnt a complaint in any way shape or form, just an observation.Caroline Becker talks about the exact events that occurred to her in Wolfenstein (2009), being shot by Hans Grosse and floating towards the light (from the queen geist castle boss).

I personally felt none of them really picked up on exactaly the same timeline of the previous ones.
