Don't think there are any characters named Helga in the game. If you are referring to the scene with Sigrun and Bombate, I would like to know how you went from that name to "Helga".

Random people calling her Helga in the comments but thanks!

She looks a lot like Helga von Bulow from RTCW.

That's what I called her when I first saw her as well - Wolfenstein has a long history of calli g fat milkmaids 'Helga' for some reason.

My only concern at this point is that my machine won't be able to run it. It's due for an upgrade this year but that's not in the cards financially right now, dammit.

Isn't it supposed to be better optimized than TNO since it's running on the newer idtech?

Probably the same reason everyone else does it - associating big/buxom "German"/German characters with the name Helga is far from limited to Wolfenstein. I believe the name was fairly popular in Nazi Germany, and it (still) being very unusual in Anglo countries would make it an ideal choice if you wanted to identify a character as being extremely German (but not in the "Let's get exterminating" sense). "von" noble names serve a similar function, though obviously with slightly different connotations.

Unless you've watched the ~20 minute spoiler runs of the first level previews, you probably don't know her name is Sigrun. A very easy mistake to make.

This needs to be here core name when she inevitably gets pulled over the the resistance: Buxom Blonde. She'd fit right in around Wisconsin.

Yeah calling a German Helga (or I guess Hans) would be like calling a Russian Ivan or an Englishman Johnny or a Hillbilly Cletus

I think the propaganda coup they'd pull by being able to say "we converted your daughter" is really what they're going for. Plus any insider knowledge she'd have to pass along.

But hey, maybe with time she'll come out of her shell and could be molded into a blood thirsty Nazi killing machine, too.

me neither. i took german one at the beginning of high school and it was awful. the teacher didn't care and was retiring that year. she basically did immersion studies in the language. then she quite and we had some slitly better teacher but my grade was hosed anyway. took spanish after that and into college. i dont remember either language now and i finished my last spanish class a year ago.

anyway new trailer looks good. my guess is we saw bits of new york(hazmat nazis) and more of new orleans. i assume there will be other locations.
