    I loved Wolfenstien The New Order, I had so much fun with that game I can't even tell you it was so refreshing to see this modernization of a game done so well. So after beating The New Order I decide to pick this up for more!

    It crashed on a loading screen silently making me wait 8 minutes watching a little spinny thing in a corner run. I was forced to alt ctrl del out of the game.

So after beating The New Order I decide to pick this up for more!

    It crashed on a loading screen silently making me wait 8 minutes watching a little spinny thing in a corner run. I was forced to alt ctrl del out of the game. You know what happened when I started it up again? the main menu stopped working entirely and none of the save slots would load and there was no exit button.

    I had to Alt Ctrl Del AGAIN, this time it crashed so hard that it actually took steam down with it and crashed steam AS WELL. 100% completely repeatable too, boot up game, main menu doesn't work, Alt Ctrl Del, steam crash. I tried this five times in a row.

    All I was looking for was Wolfenstien: more, I didn't expect innovation, a new setting or anything I just wanted more. Technically I suppose I got more, I got an intro level and one Nazi shootout before the game crashed so hard it broke steam. I can say literally nothing positive for this, go buy the new order instead.    … Expand

    Overrated shooter. Badly optimized, requires lots of resources for not so pretty graphics. Also what are they storing in so many GBs? This game is too short for that. Seriously.

    Id has lost its touch. Had lost it for quite a while now. Don't know why people bother anymore. They stopped being relevant since 2004.

    Old Blood indeed! Aside for a few new monsters and weapons this is the same old grind as the main campaign. This was just released as a stop-gap before the new DOOM

    DOOM! DOOM! DOOM! DOOM! DOOM! DOOM is coming...ah, yes sir!

    Don't waste your money on this, trust me

    Slow console junk brought on to the PC scene. Plays like all the other typical console shooters thesedays and is overly cinematic, leaving very little room for the actual gameplay because graphics is everything..

    Nothing really all that new here. Irritating start with a horrible stealth intro. Typical on the rails kinda shooter If you're a fan of the series (I'm not) you might like this game but otherwise it's a pass. The big problem is that's it's way too short, it relies on too many cinematics, and the level layouts are uninspired.

    HORRIBLY BUGGY. This game would not work on my HP Envy l3040nr laptop and persistently crashed spectacularly on my brand new Levono e560. Both exceeded the minimum spec to play this game.

    I tried everything suggested to fix the issue and still it failed again and again. I'll NEVER buy a title with this developers name on it ever again. Buyers have a right to expect software that works.

    Nothing new..just waves and waves of enemies to kill. Very predictable, boring and no fun to play at all. I enjoyed New World Order to be honest but this is just a waste of money and time.

    Tired concept, showing it's age I guess. Too linear to be interesting to me, and weak story. Okay for 4 quid.

    Old Blood is a good expansion to a great game. I wanted more Wolfenstein, and that’s exactly what I got here. Sure, it’s neither as inventive nor as heartfelt as New Order, but it’s a solid piece of content that’s still leagues better than most shooters. If you liked New Order, I’d recommend checking it out.

    A juicy addition to a great game. It doesn't try to rebuild its foundations; on the contrary it uses them to deliver new portion of fun. That's how it should look, ladies and gentlemen. [Issue#253]

    MachineGames took a step back in terms of design. The Old Blood is basically the same game as before but more action oriented, not as varied in terms of pace and lacking distinct ideas and settings. [07/2015, p.48]
