Wolfenstein 3D Mod Reimagines All Characters as Retirees

gamerant.com:

In the early days of the first-person shooter genre, there was Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, and Quake, all of which were made by the same studio. With id Software about to start on its next project, fans will no doubt be wondering what will be next out of the gate from the long-running developer. As one of the progenitors of the early days of FPS gaming, the 1992 release of the Nazi shooting action title helped set the bar for future releases. The game itself is quite old at this point, and one modder has wondered what the game world would be like years after the end of Wolfenstein 3D.

Uploading the file to ModDB recently, user OKducky has created the somewhat offensively named «Oldfartenstein 3D,» an add-on for Wolfenstein 3D that takes place several decades after the events of id's classic game. Set in 1973, so around three decades after the original game which takes place during World War 2, the mod imagines the likes of an aged B.J. Blazkowicz running into his old enemies in a retirement home and having to take them on all over again.

OKducky describes it as the answer to the question of where all these people went. Images on the mod page show a gray, balding B.J. making his way through the aforementioned retirement home, gunning down hordes of the enemies who have now retired themselves. It features ten new maps, complete with new graphics, sounds, and music, as well as some tweaks to the gameplay. The creator said they made it to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Wolfenstein 3D, a game that originally came out on May 5, 1992.

Along with id Software's game being three decades old, there was also the multiplayer entry Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory that became free on Steam
