It's amazing how the writers for Blacklist managed to develop a totally morally reprehensible character into a slightly better version of himself to begin the steps to being a good guy.
Keith Hiew Yeah agreed. He is hillarious in this game. Less of a villan. Dont think he was ever a bad guy. Just did what people told him to do to keep him self from getting killed. None the less, one of my fav video game villians.
I thought they did a good job. It showed the interrogators to actually be pretty simple minded and stupid. Small time fucks. Came across well, that was my first thought of them when I saw them. Just a bunch of nobody's trying to play a big game with Kobin strapped to a chair. They were just shitty small time cops after all, they'd be pretty stupid. Unable to grasp nay understand any bigger picture.
Kobin should be next protagonist. Agent Kobin : "I used to be a crook, now I hunt them" "I used to kill civilians, now I protect them" "I don't even care about money now" "I am a Splinter Cell"
Don't feel like it would really work. In my opinion. All the Special Ops experience Sam has, serving with the SEAL's and such. Decades of service overseas on various assignments before becoming a Splinter Cell. Its not just something you can hop into. I think he was even pulled from retirement to join Third Echelon.
Lol at 6:18 Fisher and Briggs jumped out at approximately 250 miles per hour and they act like it ain’t shit. IRL they would be splattered all over the strip.
No. There's a side mission in Blacklist where you find and rescue him from a Voron facility. There's a bunch of unused dialogue between he and Sam as well after he rescues him but for some reason they cut it from the final game.
oh that makes sense, i never even knew he was in the game and i played almost all the missions except coop, i guess i missed something important in coop.
As much as i'll appreciate kobin over someone like Charlie or Briggs in terms of character development/involvement, he personally shouldn't've been involved after the ending of Conviction/Blacklist; I understand that both him and Fisher got played like a fiddle by Lambert for the whole Conviction debacle that ultimately got him killed, but I feel like Ironside's fisher in Blacklist would've made it his mission to tie up the loose end that Kobin was for all the pain he put Fisher through. He gets keynoted from "The guy that made fisher break" to "the comedic value" and it ruined what Splinter Cell used to be, even when they didn't kill off Sam's deadpan humour.
Nah. After Conviction Sam was done with that whole debacle he was only really interested in getting away with Sara. He was only so far off the reservation because she was still alive and in danger. Kobin wasn't a threat. Lambert manipulated them both. He would have just done what he does. vanish back into the shadows. You saw how terrified Kobin was. He's lived every day since then shitting himself over the thought Fisher's going to come back and finish the job. That would have been enough to keep him docile.
In conviction he was just a petty gunrunner but in blacklist he's more there to be comedy and you can feel him slowly changing his identity and growing on Sam despite the past. Small redemption you know.
@@alcidesprieto1967 How does Andry Kobin know about the Blacklist, did Megiddo create this terrorist group by any chance? Anyway Sam Fisher didn't know that Kobin could redeem himself, why did he want to spare his life?
Kobin's reaction to seeing Sam Fisher is GOLD. Talk about believing your luck just went from bad to worse.
That got me 😂😂
Kinda reminds me of Duccio when he met Ezio again in Revelation.
KOBIN NEVER ASKED FOR THIS
Oh my god, you recognized the voice. Nice
Kobin: thank god, you saved me.
Sees Sam Fisher
Kobin: HELP! He’s worse!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I barely played it this year and I also think the same
....."Who the fuck is this guy?" HAHAHAHAHAH
I think Kobin wants to be part of the team...
You better bring him back as part of the team next time, Ubisoft!
I don't think he deserves that privilege.
he does... he was 10x more amusing than that black supersoldier... i wanted to see more of him i think that it is super awesome character for the team
hell yeah!!! he needs to be part of the team!!
@@BrainSeepsOut
Even after what he did in Conviction was horrible, he was pretty useful and cool in Blacklist.
He deserve at least a second chance
Bryan Carol Yeah he does, he changed a lot
he has slightly redeemed himself
It's amazing how the writers for Blacklist managed to develop a totally morally reprehensible character into a slightly better version of himself to begin the steps to being a good guy.
But he wasn't that useful
@@W.2026 he literally flew a military jet into Denver for Site F, none of the “normal Air Force” pilots were willing to take that risk
"he'll crash the plane" "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN!?"
Kobin's voice actor is pretty good. He should have his own game or something.
He never asked for this.
Yeah ikr, like.. Protagonist in another stealth game
my favorite had to be "You have got to be FUCKING SHITTING ME! Fisher, if this is about what happened in DC, I swear-"
"You weren't that useful."
Kobin: ... (WTF?)
I hate this guy for killing Archer/Kestrel but seeing him starting to sort of turn good guy is nice.
Keith Hiew Yeah agreed. He is hillarious in this game. Less of a villan. Dont think he was ever a bad guy. Just did what people told him to do to keep him self from getting killed. None the less, one of my fav video game villians.
Theirs more to the kestrel story in the blacklist coop missions.
He kill only Archer, Kestrel manage to survive, he was in the coma. If you do some mission coop, you can save Kestrel who keep by the Russian
Nope, Kestrel killed Archer and Kobin shot Kestrel putting him in a coma :b
@@redo7460 Did you play blacklist ?
Kastrel is alive in this game dude wake up
Hhahahah 4:36 he is about to crash the plane!
What the fuck do you think is going to happen?
Man I love how Kobin is an a hole😂😂he's a smart a hole he's my fav character in all of the splinter cells
Perhaps the most likable character in the game.
Also, whoever thought up the script for the interrogator at the beginning did a crap job.
I thought they did a good job. It showed the interrogators to actually be pretty simple minded and stupid. Small time fucks. Came across well, that was my first thought of them when I saw them. Just a bunch of nobody's trying to play a big game with Kobin strapped to a chair. They were just shitty small time cops after all, they'd be pretty stupid. Unable to grasp nay understand any bigger picture.
nah its a technique they use to frustrate the hell out of their victims so that they finally give up
Kobin should be next protagonist. Agent Kobin : "I used to be a crook, now I hunt them" "I used to kill civilians, now I protect them" "I don't even care about money now" "I am a Splinter Cell"
“And I definitely asked for this.”
xDD gold

Kobin's brain cells upon seeing Fisher: I NEVER ASKED FOR THIS
He just want's to be a part of a team xd
R.I.P. Archer, he deserved better.
kestrel survived lmao
bruh
3:22 haha I see what you did there Elias. That Deus Ex reference.
What? I didn't get it lol.
You mean the Adam Jenson's "I didn't ask for it" joke?
😂😂 I love his voice acting
Ish't Kobin's voice actor same who voiced Adam Jensen from Deus Ex?
Yup its him
Lol at 6:18 Fisher and Briggs jumped out at approximately 250 miles per hour and they act like it ain’t shit. IRL they would be splattered all over the strip.
Game logic, am I right? Lol
I always forget kobins voice actor is Adam jenson
Kobin is a traitor and if Kestrel remembers or finds out what he did he's dead.
Isn’t Kestrel dead?
No. There's a side mission in Blacklist where you find and rescue him from a Voron facility. There's a bunch of unused dialogue between he and Sam as well after he rescues him but for some reason they cut it from the final game.
oh that makes sense, i never even knew he was in the game and i played almost all the missions except coop, i guess i missed something important in coop.
Kestrel ends up hunting down Voron after waking up in the sequel novel Blacklist: Aftermath.
LOL, this has almost every scene he's on.
God damn Elias, You're amazing.
Dang Kobin's left handed!!😘👍
i laughed my goddammn ass off when kobin met fisher
The biggest downside of no Splinter Cell 7 is no more Kobin.
Maybe if he asked for a raise he'd be part of the team.
cool
Kobin's interrogator sounds like he has a flu =)
"those are bad moffafckers, right? if you want them dead, why you just don't nuke the place from the orbit"
I see what you did there.
-You weren`t that useful, Kobin

Kobin definitely asked for this. #EliasToufexis
poor kobin lol
By the end of the game I was hoping Kobin would join the team.
Why Sam Fisher didn't kills Andry Kobin in Convinction?
@@TonySopranoXXXXX not worth it.😄
@@alcidesprieto1967 Why? He's a trafficker dangerous.

Lol I wanted see Kobin join at 4th echelon
This guy is adam jenson from deus ex
"Who the fuck is this guy" =))))
Hey, creedly is online. 👍
Like when he kills archer or kestrel I think its a 2 way thing of who kills who then kobin kills them
+Hunter Simpkins Sam Fischer already realized Kobin may have relationship with either Archer or Kestrel's death.
Actually, Kestrel's in a coma (canonically), while Archer is dead.
Kestrel woke up after the game. It’s detailed in the novel Splinter Cell Blacklist: Aftermath.
In this he is like a coward and not bad at all but in conviction he is an evil criminal what happened to him
He was always a coward.
In the encounter with him in Conviction he used some sort of Cocaine before Sam get to him. That's why he was like that.
BTW Sam got his ass saved.
Hunter Simpkins Nah he's a piece of dip crap that only wants to save his own skin but crap he's funny😂😘
:D
