    GrRAPHICS
    The environmental graphics and lighting are breathtaking. I was constantly amazed by what they achieved on the PS4, cos the visuals were stunning and I find myself saying WOW a lot of times. What is even more incredible is that MachineGames manage to set the gameplat at a solid 60fps! This made the experience buttery smooth and immersive. Cutscenes are well animated, with superb voice acting and Tarantino-style direction. The main gripe I had was the faces of characters in game, which were not as impressively modeled as the environments.

    GAMEPLAY
    You can choose to go guns blazing, full stealth or a mix of both. I mostly went stealth with slow and deliberate exploration of each level. When sh*t hits the fan, that's when I pull out the big guns, dual wield them and go to town on them Nazis!! It's a very satisfying and rewarding gameplay loop. Taking out commanders silently before they can raise the alarm never gets old. Sidequests and assassination missions mean that ai could revisit levels and get all the collectibles that I missed during the main mission. This allowed me to enjoy the story without worrying of missing out on any collectible/lore or unexplored areas.

    My main complaint about gameplay would be damage feedback. A lot of times when I die, I didn't even realize I was being shot at and from which direction. Gunplay feels a lot like Doom 2016 only more frustrating because of the lack of feedback and some tough difficulty spikes.

    STORY
    I enjoyed the story and getting attached to the characters. I tried to find every single lore on each level which gave the in-game characters and enemies more depth, and also adding on to the general plot. This makes the story more impactful and allowed me to empathize with Blazkowicz and gang, even some if the Nazis. I highly recommend going slow and taking your time to explore instead of run-and-gun to the next objective.

    Overall, as an FPS based purely on single player mode with no multiplayer, Wolfenstein 2 ticks all the right boxes. I cannot wait for Wolfenstein 3!!

    This is how you honor an old franchise. Excellent, fresh, fast & fun. Story is jaw-droppingly good, considering genre and Mick Gordons soundtrack packs a punch.
    Original Wolfy wasn´t the first FPS, but it´s my first FPS that i played back in the day.
    I like that Machine Games is doing their own thing with this IP.

    I seldomly give a game a 9, but Bethesda Softworks did a nearly brilliant job with Wolfenstein 2. My only critic: the enemy Ai still needs much improvement. Fix that and you've got an action game at its best.

The only downside is the damage-scaling on the normal difficulty setting - you will get shredded in literal seconds. This forced me to select the easiest difficulty setting so that way I could enjoy game in terms of story and gameplay (because I believe that videogames should be fun to play by balancing entertainment value whilst also testing your 'skill' level).

    Nevertheless, I can't wait to see how the next sequel (Wolfenstein III) wraps everything up.

Graphics and sound are just fine, not the greatest, but perfectly fine. I laughed several times which i will not spoil and would recommend this game to any fan of shooters.

    Bethesda once again proves itself as a gaming reference in single player shooter. They have grown as one of my favorite studios. Wolfenstein 2 evolved from Wolfenstein 1 in everything: gameplay, violence, weapons, history, level design, narrative, action. This is one of my favorite single player campaigns I've ever played to date.

    One of the best Singleplayer FPS i've ever played, definitely worth picking up if you favor story and FPS shooters. But definitely need to play the first one first.
    My only big complain is the loading times can be too long and annoying at times and makes it very unfavorable to play at a harder difficulty as this only happens when you die. which happens alot at harder difficulty.

Just like 2016's Doom, this game is a fast, fluid, challenging and rewarding shooter. But unlike Doom 2016, this game actually has one of the most engaging stories in an FPS I have personally ever played. The story itself touches on the main protagonist and his allies own humanity and struggle to escape oppression with a series of special operations in a 1960s America over thrown by the 3rd reich. In context the game starts immediately after The New Order, reccuring characters and themes all intact. The game starts you as a broken BJ Blazkowitz, suffering from internal injuries, being hunted by one of the main antagonist of the new order, Frau Engel, a sadistic Nazi general out for Blazkowitz blood after the events of the prior game. Literally being broken, the first half of the game is very stealth heavy, you can go guns blazing if you understand the enemy placements and environments you are in, but since the game starts you with such low health this can become a fairly difficult task. Around the half way point you are given new gadgets and boosted health which makes the game much more viable for your preferred playstyle. Which is a strong point, the game mixes elements of Machine games prior products very well. Visceral melee and stealth is reminiscent of Butcher Bay, while the fast paced duck and weave shooting is much like The Darkness. The gameplay all feels highly refined, aside from a few stealth sections feeling a bit gimmicky and unfair due to enemy placements and the ultra aggressive AI. A lack of multiplayer may come off as a turn off to some, but this does not personally bother me, being someone who prefers a solid single player offering without tacked on multiplayer. The campaign ranges anyshere from 10-15 hours or so depending on skill and difficulty selected, which I find a solid length for a single player shooter, where many last less than 6 hours in this day and age of MP focused triple A shooters. Personally this game, along with 2016's Doom, have been a true joy to play for me. The blend of retro style ultra violent gunplay, and modern tactical shooting mixed with stealth, knock the ball way out of the park. If youre a fan of a good single player experience, but this game and play it several times. If lack of MP disappoints you, at least try renting it or wait for a massive price drop, you may enjoy what you find. Expand

    Wolfenstein went from good to amazing, damn, how I love this game. Shooting Nazi's never felt better, the characters and story is absolutely terrific (and **** crazy) and the score and sound direction are just audible gold. One tip, go with the Wyatt route, much more rewarding in character development and the ending is much better (I love Fergus but he's pretty much a caricature this time around).

    Every weapon in this game has a certain meaty punch to them, with a decent perk and upgrade system to go with them. Overall, despite what people say, there is plenty of gameplay here and machine games has included side operations too, as a sort of shield from complaints that its too short, and they work fine if just readjustments to the same maps in the world.

    Looking back on this game overall, I was in constant state of enjoyment, and that I cannot deny, there are very mixed opinions in terms of users for this game, and all i can say is you might hate it or love it. But its certainly worth finding out, because this game is surprisingly creative.

    Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is an amazing sequel to 2014's The New Order.

    What I really like about this game (as well as its predecessor) is the alternate 1960s history, the characters and storytelling. Protagonist BJ Blazkowicz's character is being built up as a man forced to survive in a world gone awfully bad, and having to deal with his personal demons. Flashbacks show us his tough upbringing by a cruel father, justifying how a man can possibly slaughter hundreds of Nazis like it were a piece of cake. Blazkowicz also has a pregnant girlfriend and worries about his fiancè and unborn twin daughters, foreshadowing the events of Wolfenstein: Youngblood. Storywise the highlight is the level where Blazkowicz faces his father. The main antagonist is Frau Engel, returning from The New Order, portrayed as a maniacal and sadistic Nazi general in a playful way. I also like how they mixed Roswell and Area 52 in this alternate history. Even though Hitler isn't the main antagonist, he makes a cameo appearance (and you have the chance to kick him in the face).

    Gameplay is the same as The New Order. You have to traverse some open maps (it's not an open world) and shoot down tons of enemies with the option of doing it stealthily. Whereas in The New Order it was possible to stealth kill entire legions of Nazis, I find it much more difficult to sneak up on enemies in The New Colossus thanks to the level design and the fact that the commanders are located at the very end of the levels, meaning you have to sneak past all of the enemy soldiers before assassinating these commanders (if they spot you they call in re-inforcements). Since gameplay mechanics have remained mostly the same, the developers added 3 "contraptions" (aka gadgets) which you gain access to midway through the campaign. One major gripe I have with the game (as well as its predecessor) is the classic chokepoints. At some points in the game you have to dispatch many waves of re-spawining enemies with bullet sponges thrown into the mix. Without spoiling the story, at the court scene I had to re-load the game some 20 times before finally clearing the level. This is not Dark Souls-style challenging, this is annoying and unfair.

    Graphics have been greatly upgraded since The New Order (which was a cross-gen game), The New Colossus focuses on current-gen consoles and sports greatly expanded and detailed levels with many more colors in the chromatic palette. The game runs at 60 fps with just a few drops, and gameplay fluidity is never impacted too much. The voice acting is great, with standouts being the Engel and Blazkowicz characters. The OST is OK.

    Overall, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is a big improvement over The New Order. It's a shame this series is under-appreciated among gamers and the one-dimensional Doom (let alone CoD) steals all the headlines these days. I hope there is a Wolfenstein III in the future, because Youngblood doesn't really hit the target. I definitely recommend The New Colossus to everyone.

The story could probably be the main reason you'd buy and play the game, even if you are not into first person shooters it's definitely worth to play for the story itself.

    I'd really like everyone who consider themselves "a gamer" to consider buying this and supporting fair singleplayer game with great story, these become more and more uncommon nowadays, unfortunately.

    With its mixture of high octane gunplay and remarkable visual presentation, in many ways The New Colossus is a serious improvement over its already excellent predecessor.

    Not normally a big shooter fan, but I cannot resist the epicness of Wolfenstein games. The modern instalments are so badass. The characters are excellent, the weapons are sweet, and killing Nazis is always satisfying. Have barely anything bad to say about this. If you're looking for a fun, action packed and fairly diverse shooter with excellent historical references plus great humour, play this.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. el juego en sí es bastante excelente, nos dice que nuestro protagonista tenía antecedentes crueles desde su infancia y que, debido al curso actual, asesinaron a un asesino que mataba a nazis, que por dentro sufría demasiado y no podía continuar, lo que no puede pensar con claridad. , pero luego decide continuar, porque su madre (aunque es un sueño pero parece estar conectado) trata de motivarlo y desahogar esos pensamientos negativos que hace mucho tiempo lo transformaron, por lo que se calma y por lo tanto continúa salvando este mundo hacer una revolución contra los nazis, convirtiéndolo en el personaje mejor construido que lo convirtió en mi favorito. Los personajes secundarios tienen una buena contribución, aparte de la comedia que es algo secundario y con poco desarrollo, ayuda a tener un desarrollo en la trama eso progresa, como cualquiera que estaba preocupado con su esposo porque ella casi no está cerca de ella y la trata de animarse un poco en un ambiente tranquilo, haciendo que el momento sea decente. o como un conjunto que contribuye a otorgarle el arma de explosión / lazer, para poner su cabeza en un cuerpo biológico (como lo hizo con su gato) que también le otorgo un arcenario de cada uno a los 3 y contando y guiando dónde está el uno que se encuentra donde detonar el arma nuclear. El general muestra un orgullo posesivamente alegre que presiona y sufre a sus enemigos de algo que cumple un buen desarrollo como villano (que me gustó y quería hacerla sufrir).

    La mecánica del juego ha mejorado mucho antes de su predecesor, el nuevo orden que tenía algunos problemas que habían implementado y luego los corrigió de una mejor manera, como los 3 arcanos, como la modificación de armas y el uso de 2 armas. sin usar el mismo que llevas para usar una buena combinación e implementación como los 3 arcaneles como constrictor para ocultar y acabar sigilosamente con los nazis, el torso que cruzas en las paredes y los enemigos para obtener partes de la armadura e incluso generar metal de la armadura, y los pies que obtienes 3 puntos de vida y mantienes un total de más de 100 de salud sin gastar y trepando pisos presionando el salto 2 veces, lo que hace que el diseño de nivel logre variar gracias a los arcenales

    los gráficos son bastante buenos aunque no están al nivel de su competencia, tiene buenas texturas y física que los juegos sobresalieron en DooM 2016 y más cuáles son los efectos especiales que transmiten sonidos que reducen las explosiones y los disparos. La música es buena pero no perfecta porque hay pocos que no sean malos pero que sean decentes.

    Después de hablar sobre el juego, le doy más de 9 (9.6) a este juego, un juego que realmente me dio una experiencia triste, como uno de los mejores juegos que he jugado en esta vida y en esta generación.

Fantastic. The gun play is awesome. Blasting through nazis is always satisfying. A few small complaints. There didn't seem to be very memorable boss fights this time around. The trophies aren't as easy as last time. You don't get to kill Hitler. No zombies or aliens this time. And the weapon selection/ swap system was sort of annoying. The stealth didn't feel like it worked as well as it should have but I think that's just because I suck at stealth and have that same complaint with every game. That's more of a me problem than a game problem. This game has plenty of replayability. I love alternate history/reality worlds. I love the overall look and aesthetic of these Wolfenstein games. I love that this one went full on hokey and dove further into it's sci fi B movie inspiration. Expand

    The graphics in this game are outstanding for most of it. The gunplay is tight and the ability to make upgrades is a good addition. It never felt repetitive in my opinion. I'll say the worst part of the game is the water... I mean seriously, was the person in charge of water graphics on vacation for the entire development? Mario on the NES has better water than this game does on my PS4.
    It's a fun game. Cut scenes are entertaining and go right along with the story. I feel like there's something else going on with the negative comments here, because this is Nazi killing goodness.

    For better or worse, the old school gameplay is once again placed in a highly detailed, modern looking wrapper. If you like attention to detail above all else, you will love Wolfenstein II. If you like modern gameplay above all else, then you may just be frustrated to death with this game.

    The detail is amazing. Although the levels are not big, they are well thought and designed with more items than exist in most games. The detail is a such a supreme effort that Bethesda even included original music for the Nazi occupied 1960s. The cutscenes are simply insane, and I give kudos to Bethesda for topping one insane scene with an even more insane scene. In terms of look and feel, this game is an 11 out of 10.

    The gameplay, however, is stuck in the past. There is a reason that Halo was so popular in 2001. The game dispensed with the usual gameplay of clearing out a level and then scouring the area for ammo and health packs. Scouring a level slows down gameplay and is not all that fun. Halo had a relentless drive that made it so fun and replayable. Activision soon followed the Halo formula for Call of Duty and now every modern shooter benefits from Halo-like gameplay. This is why I am befuddled that Bethesda relies so much on the old school shooting in Wolfenstein II. You might notice that the Doom reboot also has the same old school gameplay, and Doom also has only so much appeal.

    I think Wolfenstein might have benefited from going in a direction of either more action or more of exploration. The level of detail is well done but only goes so far on a small scale. The enemies are interesting but paced because the mechanics do not support mass encounters. Some enemies like giant walking tanks are easily destroyed by shooting through a doorway. Waves of low level enemies are deadly because the computer has no problem with hitting a moving target. (Even the great Halo understood this, and all the enemy weapons have significant travel time.) So you have a game where the boss fights are uninteresting and the low level fights can be frustrating and un-fun. Some fights are inspired, like the time I destroyed a half dozen Nazi’s in the one tight corridor on an underground train or the utterly gratuitous sequence where I piloted a giant flame throwing robot dog. Most of the fights are the same old same old. It is good to see the laser rifle back. Less is done with this weapon than in the last game, but it remains a great time for all.

    Full disclosure: I bought this game used off of Gamestop for about $5. I feel bad now because despite the gameplay, I enjoyed the full package. The campaign is meaty and well worth the cost of admission.

    and one of the most brutal openings to a video game I’ve ever experienced..
    You don’t stay this way forever thanks to a body suit you’re able to walk again…
    This time the game takes place in America...
    Once again in an alternate history where the Nazis won the war…
    seeing how this win affected America is thought provoking, and full of emotion…
    Easily one of the most impactful campaigns I’ve ever played through in a shooter…
    Here you’re starting to spark a revolution and take back America, killing some Nazi scum…
    Wolfenstein 2 is a much more compact game compared to the original, this time only taking around 6 and a half hours to complete…
    But it’s an enjoyable 6 and a half hours...
    much more linear as well with the same concepts of taking out scouts so they don’t trigger alarms, and stealthing through areas or going in guns blazing…
    The weapon variety isn’t as vast, but you have your typical base weapons you’d expect in most shooters... but to bring some variety in, your guns are all upgradable, allowing you to add a perk to give them an entirely different feel….
    The level design isn’t that great this time around…
    it feels pretty dull and generic…
    The greatness comes in the setting and the story telling…
    when the game puts you into perspective of the world around you..
    Without the great story pieces, this is still a good shooter… but just good...
    There are no epic fights or showdowns…
    Just a bunch of running from point a to b and shooting everything in your way…
    it plays and feels how you’d expect, but no moments outside of cut scenes blew me away
    I love how the story was delivered though, in ways you wouldn’t expect and are surprising each time…
    This game will break your heart, it will give you hope, it will take it away…
    for those reasons alone, you owe it to yourself to play through this first person shooter…

As soon as it lets that go however - it shines. The action picks up, the plot picks up, the levels become varied and incredible.

    This is a hard game to sit down and talk about. In this short, non-stop, action-packed game, it just goes for it. It dark, gritty and sad but also funny, light and happy at times. It rides the line and what is that line? I don’t even know.

    The game starts off with something that was so emotionally draining, right off the bat it was an emotional punch to the gut. While I was sitting next to my dog in real life, I had to shoot B.J. Blazkowicz’s (main characters) childhood dog. Oh man, that was such a tough moment, I was not emotionally prepared for that. After that, the game gets emotionally gets easier to swallow.

    After the game’s intro, things start to pick up narratively but everyone still remains to be very gloomy. As the game progresses you meet Super Spesh and Grace who are just trying to survive. Upon their arrival, things start to look like they’re improving and also with Super Spesh he brings some much-needed light-hearted humor. Before they arrived it started to feel like the game was taking itself way too seriously.

    I hate to be so vague with everything in regards to the story because there are so many things I want to talk about but I don’t want spoil anything. The game has a tone and then about two-thirds of the way through the game there is a major tonal switch. It goes off the rails crazy and what it does it gets me so excited for the sequel.

    It pains me to say this but the weakest part of this game is the gameplay. There is not a great difficulty setting. There are six settings and two through 6 are harder than you want them to be. This is a game that you want some resistance but you don’t want to get stuck in a certain level. This is a game that only flows well when its actually flowing, you want things to progress and move along. The problem with the first difficulty it was too easy. I know it sounds nit-picky but the key to have a great game is having the right difficulty setting.

    The gameplay itself, you can dual-wield any weapon and it’s satisfying enough. Depending on the ammo, I was constantly switching up the combinations but it was fun rocking machine gun and shotgun. As I said before I put the difficulty setting on one and played it like a cartoony first-person shooter. Just blasting through Nazi’s. It wound up being fun enough.

    The biggest disappointment about this game is the fact that it was so close to being great. With it being on the Doom engine, I thought it was going to play like that. Unfortunately, it didn’t happen quite like that. The story is better than Doom but Doom has the better gameplay.

    The entire game was not very long, which is a pro and a con. The game is not something you want to do for 15 hours. But at the same time, asking people to spend $60 on an eight-hour game is asking a lot. I had a lot of fun playing this game and its one the memorable gaming experiences of my life but this is something I would wait until it’s on sale to pick up.

    The people giving this game a negative review are either KKK members, alt-right, nazis, or closet racists. The game definitely isn't a 10 but it is a good game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. *SPOILERS FOR THE STORY*
    So I'm playing this game and it is good. This one thing bothers me. At some point we are introduced to this new character "Adolf" and he's there for one scene, he's kinda quirky and I have no idea who he is and what he's even doing in there. I believe someone mentions him in the first game (they call him "main feerer" which in Wolfenstein language means president/king or a master I think) but he serves no purpose to the story. Then it hit me.

    As some of you know Wolfenstein games are based on the anime and manga series 魔法 少女マイン☆カムプフ. I have not seen any of it (though it's free on Crunchyroll) but according to wiki this character is prominent in manga/anime. So that's basically a pointless fanservice which I'm not sure I like. There is no setup and apparently he's behind EVERYTHING now!? All the death camp places and robodoggos and wars.

    So now he's going to be the main bad guy? Maybe? Which kind of sucks. Whats up with the character design being so lazy? They just made an old guy with black hair and and a mustache. Except they only modeled half the mustache in the middle of his face which looks weird (or that might be a bug). That makes him a pretty easy cosplay though.

    The rest is fine. Can't wait for Wolfenstein 3 which will definitely happen based on the ending.

    Wolfenstein is back with another fast paced old school shooter that doesn't have time for you to hide behind cover while your health regenerates. Unfortunately it's the kind of game that is way more difficult with a controller than a keyboard and that holds it back slightly on PS4.

    + it triggers the every living f**k out of right wingers who supposedly aren't 'nazis' but somehow manage to get offended anyway when you shoot FAKE ROBOT NAZIS in this game. The only reason this game doesn't have roughtly 8 or 9/10 in the user reviews is because it's being review bombed with 0 score reviews by right wing snowflakes who think shooting enemy nazis in this game is a form of oppression or some kind of agenda. Remember when it wasn't 'political' to fight nazis? I member.

    Wolfenstein 2 is a great shooter with single player campaign and no multiplayer, (no lootboxes, no other crap). The story is kind of absurd but kind of fun at the same time.

The gameplay of Wolfenstein 2 is very similar to its predecessor Wolfenstein 1 and its addon. a bit of a downside is the graphics (ID's Rage engine) is a generation older than ID's current Doom engine, so Wolfenstein 2 hasn't the best graphics one would hope for 2017. Because of the engines limitations the levels have a static feeling. WS2 is even more over the top than WS1. It's not really a "old-school" shooter as some say, like 1990s shooter. Wolfenstein is more Call of Duty shooter just with no auto-healing. Expand

The weapon selection and upgrades keep you varying gameplay nicely and rewards you well for using the same technique over and over. I enjoyed the story elements and varied locals. The bad, color or rather lack thereof, the game is really monochromatic. The cut scenes have nice color, i just wish they would have splashed more of it in the real time enviroment. Running and moving it is easy to get caught up on the destructable enviroment making for some frustrating fails in long fire fights. I little more forgiving particle density for ground cover that used to be on the wall might fix that . The ugly, the sound, ack even with headphones on you are always looking for the sound cues, it is not that the game does not suppy them, they are plenty, witty and fun, they are just in no way helpful in order to locate the enemy that they are coming from . Incoming weapon damage is difficult to measure the direction it is coming and seems
    extremely non linear. In summation , W2TNC is a fast paced shoot em up save the world from Nazi fun fest during a time in history most of us never thought we would see. Its monochromatic beauty is filled with easter eggs and awesome destructable enviroments. The flow of this almost perfect game is thrown off when you die atop a pile of health that you were not picking up because it is one of the few games I can think off that makes you do this manually/including ammo and shields. It also is interrupted when you stubb your toe on a splinter from a desk you blew up and a rocket hits you, that is putting a little to much reality into my escapism .Leveling up the weapons was a joy and I really found rooting around the enviroments rewarding. I fell like this game was so close to one of the best fps ever.

    I wanna start this review by saying that I am a total loser regarding first-person shooters. The last time I played a campaign was in COD: Black Ops on PS3 and the last time I played online was in Battlefield 4, so, going into this game, I was really worried about how much fun I could have in this game. I knew I would totally blew the gameplay by trying to learn how to actually playI wanna start this review by saying that I am a total loser regarding first-person shooters. The last time I played a campaign was in COD: Black Ops on PS3 and the last time I played online was in Battlefield 4, so, going into this game, I was really worried about how much fun I could have in this game. I knew I would totally blew the gameplay by trying to learn how to actually play shooters and, well, lately FPS hasn’t been known for their stellar campaigns. I was almost sure that I would end up abandoning this game or finishing it just for the sake of it. I couldn’t be more wrong.

    Let’s start by the graphics. It has it’s ups and downs. The facial design and expressions are ugly as hell, kinda like Mass Effect: Andromeda without the bugs. It creeps you out when you’re in cutscenes and the characters are talking to each other. On the playable parts, however, the graphics are amazing. They seem a little bit cartoonish, but in a good way. This style gives the game a face of it’s own, a lot of personality. The explosions are beautiful and, when you’re walking around Roswell seeing the parades, the KKK, all the stores and buildings, it actually makes you want to walk around that place in real life just to explore, see how things are going. Everything looks alive and beautiful.

    The soundtrack of the game is also something really well done. It gives you all sorts of emotions when the music starts playing at scenes with heavy action or the sad scenes. The voice acting is totally on point. It seems like every actor was handpicked for the personality of their characters. And the silence of everything else when B.J. is talking to himself during the campaign is kinda heartbreaking.

    The gameplay was very fun, even if it caused me a lot of trouble for not knowing anything about first-person shooters (also it was hard as hell). Everytime I killed a Nazi it felt so **** good. You just wanna grab those guns and shoot through their skulls, and that’s exactly how the combat felt like. B.J.’s movement was smooth and simple. If you wanted to just run around shooting everything or being a little stealthier, everything could be done without major issues. The cover system felt kinda broken to me, though, as I barely even used it. Another thing that was really, really broken was the navigation system, which is the main flaw of this game. The “hint” system, which shows where you’re supposed to go, doesn’t show you anything mosto f the time or makes you completely confused by showing two directions, and that really slows everything down and makes you wonder where the hell am I and where the hell am I supposed to go. Apart from that, I had almost no bugs whatsoever in the game, making the flow of it very fine-tuned.

    The story is great. I couldn’t wait for the cutscenes to see how everything was going to advance. And it makes you crave that follow-up. You can’t stop playing until it’s over, really, because you’ll always want to see how you’re going to **** the Nazis again, and how B.J. is going to get his revenge. All the characters in this game are incredible. They all have their own distinct personality. They’re all themselves. From the badass B.J. to the retarded Max Hass, you have no other choice but to love them all (aside from that Nazi **** who is also amazingly constructed).

    In an age when multiplayer completely dominates, which is specially true about FPS, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus comes to show that things doesn’t have to be that way. An incredible story, which beautifully-crafted characters and a fun, albeit hard, gameplay, made me fall in love with this franchise. More of this, please. That’s all I ask. More of this.

    I went into this game not expecting too much as it wasn't really a game I heard too much about. However, Wolfenstien definitely shocked me. It has its flaws, a fair amount in fact, but it never really retracts too much from the main experience.

    The story was the main strength of this game to me. I felt so invested in the characters and their struggle. The main character may not be the most exciting or charismatic hero, but I cannot help but love him. He has watched a lot of his friends die and he just wants the struggle to be over. The characters range from crazy and likable to evil and psychotic. The cut scenes are some of the strongest moments in this game, for me. I love to just sit and watch them like it is a movie as they make the characters seem so real and believable and I just wanted to see them prevail.

    The gameplay, however, is a mixed bag. Sure it feels fun to slash through Nazis but the game is actually much more slower paced. You are forced to often hide behind cover and slowly make your way through enemies and it sucks a lot of the enjoyment out of just ripping everyone up. The levels are also really simple, and that wouldn't be a problem, if they weren't so simple they weren't fun. The game mainly has you traverse through confusing areas killing a few enemies and then moving onto the next. If the game wasn't so slow than this would be a lot more fun, sort of similar to Doom (2016). Most of the time, I just wanted to get through the levels as soon as possible so I could immerse myself in the characters and story.

    In short, this game managed to keep me drawn into the story and characters with its movie like cut scenes and interesting plot points but gameplay often felt like more of a chore than fun some of the time.

    In spite of a number of gameplay shortcomings, Wolfenstein II still packs a great punch, and advances the genre in a number of ways.

    In spite of a number of gameplay shortcomings, Wolfenstein II still packs a great punch, and advances the genre in a number of ways.
    First, the bad:
    My biggest problem with the game concerns the tools and feedback it provides players in terms of situational awareness. We take for granted in most modern FPS games that it is easy to tell when you are being shot, and where the shots are coming from. I found myself dying frequently in W2:TNC when I actually had very little sense of how much damage I was taking, or even what my health was at any given moment. The game lacks those all too familiar "health critical" warnings like blood on the screen, desaturation, or even the "beeping" of fully depleted shields. It's simply hard to know the status of your own character.
    It's hard to know the status of enemies as well. For starters, they are often not easily visually distinguishable from each other. Eliminating enemy commanders is a key mechanic in the game, as they can sound alarms and call reinforcements, but from a distance of more than about 5 meters they look just like every other enemy in the game, creating confusion for any player trying to eliminate them quickly. What's more, most enemies blend right into the environments, for the most part lacking any contrasting colors, lights on their armor, or other features that would allow you to notice them among the frantic action of a fight. Even during calm moments, they are often very still, and lack loud footsteps, vocal "barks," or other cues that help you understand where they are in the environment.
    This feeds into the larger problem of the games poorly realized "play your way" system, theoretically designed to allow for stealth, tactical play, or in-your-face brute force. Without the kind of situational information and feedback I mention above, or systems seen in other flexible play style games like tagging enemies, radar, or better corner peeking, stealth is nearly impossible. Repeatedly I found myself successfully eliminating two or three enemies at most before being spotted by an enemy I didn't even know was there, or worse, having an enemy body (which cannot be moved) being spotted by a living enemy. When this happens, the alarm is sounded almost instantly, resulting in waves of aggressive enemies pouring out of the wood work, forcing you into frantic fire fights. So much for stealth.
    Even the "tactical" path, which encourages use of cover, positioning, and careful aiming, is quickly nullified by the same issue. Waves of enemies rushing your position WILL force you out into the open for a big firefight. This is compounded by the somewhat poorly implemented weapon wheel. Changing from a single silenced pistol, for example, to dual wielding a laser and a shotgun, takes several awkward seconds- not great when there's a wall of hot lead coming your way.
    Now for the good:
    From a storytelling standpoint, The New Colossus picks up where The New Order left off, both temporally and stylistically. The narrative, dialogue, setting, and characters are at once hyperbolic caricatures, yet endearingly real feeling. For a game that is all about action, I was surprised to find myself relishing the sometimes-lengthy, dialogue-heavy cutscenes. W2:TNC knows how much fun its world and characters are, and it's not afraid to let them speak for themselves during these cutscenes. They pull it off, too. If I have a criticism of the storytelling, it is that it lacks some of the deft-handed subtlety that was present in, for example, the sequence where BJ goes for coffee on the train to Berlin in the first game.
    That said, there are plenty of memorable moments. The middle of the game packs some of the most narratively bold sequences I've ever seen in a game. The secret sauce here is found in the way W2:TNC can crank the lunacy up to 11, and yet still make you feel so much; you don't get jaded to it.
    There's more I could say about the storytelling, but the brass tacks of any game are found in the moment to moment mechanics, and W2:TNC feels best when you embrace the chaos and dive into the fray, guns blazing. The AI isn't terribly smart, but it is aggressive, and can damage you quickly if you allow yourself to be swarmed, so movement and efficiency are key. If receiving damage lacks feedback, dealing out damage certainly does not. Weapons feel weighty in your hands, fire with satisfying sound and animation, and eviscerate enemies in a way that would make you feel a little bad for them if they weren't *litertally* nazis. The game does begin a little slow, but as your arsenal of weapons and skills increases, combat becomes an amusing playground of high-impact ways to pulp the baddies.
    At times the level design leaves something to be desired, but even dull maps come to life under the superb creative direction TNC retains from its predecessor. Not every environment lives up to this promise fully, but the ones that do make a very strong impression.

    I feel as if this was a great follow up to the previous Wolfenstein games. The gun mechanics are very satisfying, as when you shoot there's a lo of punch in the weapons especially ones like the "Shockhammer". Moments of fighting in the game are very exiting as there is always a lot going on with barrels exploding, new enemies appearing and helmets and blood flying across the screen.I feel as if this was a great follow up to the previous Wolfenstein games.

Furthermore, the voice acted scenes are done really well and further the story of Wolfenstein.
    Though there are a few things i felt they could have done better:
    1. I found the game was too short for my liking as it only took me around 15 hours to finish (excluding the side mission) and i found the side missions to be boring and useless compared to the main ones where in you feel you are doing something important.
    2. Wolfenstein needs to stop getting caught up in race politics, this is something that really bugged me - it's not the Nazi premise in fact i love that about the game but what bugged me was characteristic by Grace Walker - a black female leader in the game who says "White America gave up" i feel that there is no need for this in a shooting game and it really makes me as a White person feel unwanted even after i bought the special version of the game that was 50 pounds plus.
    3. The devs need to entertain the idea of different play styles more, Wolfenstein offers the idea of just running and gunning everyone or doing it stealthily. Though the stealth option really is not an option. As bots in the game somehow always see or hear you whether you are behind cover and barely moving or not furthermore, it's hard to complete levels without going directly through a horde of Nazi's and thus shooting is a much less excruciating and rather rewarding option.

    It's refreshing to play a game with serious tones, but doesn't take itself too seriously.

    The gameplay pacing here is excellent and I really felt immersed in this dystopian alternate reality. The characters are very believable and I found myself rooting for them as they ventured from mission to mission. The gunplay is super fast paced and feels grounded in its old-school FPS roots.

    Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is an FPS that makes a ton of good to great decisions, but also a handful of poor ones. Tightly crafted gameplay is marred by adherence to genre conventions, and the narrative gets off to a slow start as the game decides what it wants to be. However, neither of those are enough to drag this down too much, as it is simply too well put together and has more than enough personality and fun to poke through the layer of seriousness draped over the first parts of the campaign. What is left is a game that can stand as a very fine example of its genre, if not quite a groundbreaking one.
