  Finally, someone is calling it a remake instead of a remaster.

  The Giant was a lose/lose situation. Change too much? People will complain that it strays away too far from Der Riese. Don&apos;t change enough? People will complain that the map is a waste of time and unoriginal.<br><br>Personally, I&apos;m somewhat satisfied with the map we got. I think my favourite aspect of it is still the fact that it doesn&apos;t make any sense in the storyline whatsoever. Probably the most intriguing and mysterious Zombies map to this day.

  I just gotta say I love that every map you do these convoluted steps to get the souls of the other characters but on the giant Richthofen just shoots his past self in the face and that’s it

  I still wish they had gone with the Purifier instead of the Annihilator as the specialist weapon for this map. It would have been more useful in general and also been a sort of throwback to the M2 in WaW.

  The Giant was my all time favorite map. I’m a pretty casual player and didn’t have friends to play with by the time BO3 game out, so Shadows of Evil and Der Eisendrache went way over my head. The Giant was the map I could load up, get a nice, more powerful BO3 wall weapon and just enjoy myself from there.

  When you really think about &quot;The Story&apos; of The Giant, you start to unearth some dope things. It was Richtofen&apos;s access to himself, meaning the version we see killed here is ALSO Eddy in Cold War. The Hide and Seek EE lends Maxis a hand by showing him where this crew is at, making it easier for Monty to track the crew through their loop in BO3, and by extension how Maxis reaches out during Alpha Omega. It&apos;s the second time we get to experience the Primis crew over the Ultimis crew, and although the send off could&apos;ve been more sentimental, Richtofen shooting himself is a very Call of Duty way to meet that same goal. It isn&apos;t the same map, but I think that lends to the overarching narrative they were setting up. An on the nose way of saying, &quot;We&apos;re not repeating BO2 again, this year it&apos;s different.&quot; and Jason and the team provided what was arguably one of the coolest years for Zombies fans. Thanks for the awesome video, really got me appreciating the teams commitment to this project!

  Its funny, initially i was impressed with the giant and the fact they had subtly changed and added enough to feel like a diffrent shade of paint. <br><br>That said i find my self playing der riese declassified because it feels like what the gaint should have been
