Where are They Now?

Because I really miss CoD and I know we probably won’t get any real updates on our beloved characters, I’ve took it upon myself to do a “Where are they now?” They’ll be quick blurbs of what the team is up to a little over a year later.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own CoD or any of their characters. Furthermore, these are MY thoughts and opinions. You are free to disagree, but don’t attack me. After all this is just me having fun.

I wonder what everyone would be up to if Cause of Death still aired. What new villains would be introduced? How would everyone be coping with Blaise's heroic death? Especially Jeremy. How would that affect his relationship with Amy? Would a new detective be introduced to fill her position? What about Maltara's baby? I can picture Natara wanting to be pregnant and kicking ass. Would Maria get bored on retirement? I love replaying the game and all, but the game being around and me playing it always helped ease my winter depression. It's just not the same. EA games are pure evil.

I think that someone should make a gameplay walkthrough of the entire series (since it is being taken off of the app store tomorrow. RIP CoD 9-8-2014). There are probably some people that weren't able to play the whole series and there isn't a CoD walkthrough on YouTube yet.

Well, I’ve been using this one for the past couple years. It’s not a visual one, but it has helped me tremendously. I’m sure in due time someone will put one on YouTube. I hope this one at least helps a little bit.

The moral of the story is that you do not ruin Natara’s wedding.

He didn't exactly get it on a silver platter, but Holland won't have to worry about his butt anymore.

What did you think of the CoD ending???

I know I’m going to get a lot of hate for this, but I think it’s good timing. I didn’t really like it being outside of San Francisco. Like why are they in Japan and England? If they were in another city in California, it wouldn’t be as bad. Like Natara is the only one who has authority out of the city of San Francisco. I’m not downplaying the hard work and dedication of everyone else. I just see them in San Francisco, you know? Why did the Firstborn have to awaken all of Genevieve’s children and cause worldwide havoc? That plot just wasn’t my favorite. 

I did like the ending, though. I’m sad to see Blaise go. I really wanted her to get back with Jeremy. I wanted some redemption for Blaise. She struggled so much, only to die in the end. I did like that she went in a completely badass way. It was the ultimate fuck you. I believe the rest of the team honored her properly. I always hated how she was always cast aside. 

As for the actual plot, I thought it was pretty awesome. What I really liked was that Mal and Natara were able to show that even though they love each other, they were willing to do what it takes to end the Firstborn. He shot through Natara, which finally killed the Firstborn. What made it better was that he was finally able to feel fear. He knew what it was like and he thought of all the people he killed. He couldn’t be held in a jail cell, the Firstborn had to be killed. He would have figured his way out, if he hadn’t been. I think this made Mal and Natara’s relationship stronger. They both know that no matter how deep their love is for each other and how much their instinct is to protect one another, there is always a job to do no matter what. 

What I liked the most is that Mal and Natara are having a child together. They’re not getting married yet, sorry, but that’s a total cliche and I’m glad the CoD team didn’t go that route. Instead they are off to Washington DC to start a new life together. 

So, yeah I’ll really miss the game. I have every episode, so I’ll be able to play whenever I want and relive the magic.

Umm, excuse me?
