This game makes a perfect mix of hardcore realistic games and more arcade like shooters. It is a lot of fun and the community is mostly friendly and welcoming

This game takes some time to get into, with the first 2 hours being a little strange to play. I had trouble getting augmentations to work the way i wanted and movement felt strange. After a bit you start getting used to it, and the game starts feeling a little bit like a controlled power fantasy. My first playthrough was mostly kill every bad guy and help as many people as possible. The game responds to your actions in game, though I sometimes felt the effects of murdering an entire city of police forces was a little understated later. The grand finale is incredible, very well done, with choices you make during the entire storyline having significant changes in the outcome as well as how you approach the end having an effect on who lives and dies.
The guns in this game feel clunky at first but incredible once you get used to them, and the upgrades significantly add to the gameplay.
Takeaway is that this is a great game, feeling better than the last one. The Upgrade system and weapon adjustments allow you to play however you want, "legendary weapons" offer unique alternatives, and the story, while not my cup of tea, always felt naturally linked to the gameplay in more than just the location. I can think back and remember what was going on and why despite skimming through most cutscenes. This game is very good, takes time to get into, but incredible after you start to understand how the gameplay works.

This game is great for learning popular songs, even if they are harder than what you are used to. I love this game, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes playing guitar. Only downside would be that you need a custom usb cable and a compatible guitar. Get the official cable so, the others ones may be cheaper but have pretty sub-par quality.

This game combines the old school feel of fast paced movement with a ton of additions that feel very well placed. Combined with a singleplayer story I don't know why I wouldn't recommend this. All of the weapons feel effective and deadly, the time to kill is very short to emphasize fast movement. The guns all play ad feel significantly different, so there is a gun for every playstyle. Combine this with all of the customizable weapon and pilot perks, plus grenades, and I got to admit I had a lot of fun finding what combination i liked playing most.

My only gripe would be that the perks Shields and Holopilots are kind of useless in multiplayer, they both have very niche uses and are otherwise ineffective.

Unlike LSD, this game is addictive.

I really like this game, it gives you a lot of freedom of choice and allows you to shape the story however you want. The rpg system is nice too.

This game gives the great survival horror feeling justice. You are always desperately attempting to take control of the situations the game throws out a t you, all while barely having enough ammo and medkits. Getting the shotgun was my favorite part of the game, and getting the upgraded one was even cooler.
My only complaint is that the boss fights against Jack and Marguarite Baker didn't really have as cool a setup as the Lucas "fight" and the final boss.
I think the first person camera fits the setting nicely, adding to the claustrophobic atmosphere.
While playing the game, I frequently felt like I was in a horror movie like "the Texas chainsaw massacre".

This game is difficult, but very fun. I just think that there is a moment in the story that, while set up and all, really just feels off, as in, it shouldn't have happened. I think everyone that played it knows what I mean. Other than that one specific part, I think the story is fine, but the gameplay is really good, and I would recommend it to fans of stealth games and RTS games.

I don't recommend this game, because the story is kinda cringe and not good, it tries so hard to be serious but c'mon, it's a Wolfenstein game, I don't want story, I want gameplay. And the level design, especially toward the end, just becomes unfair and I found myself repeating the same parts over and over. It's not fun, just repetitive.

I would recommend Wolfenstein: The old blood, however, because it only has first person cutscenes that are really short, and the level design is overall very fair.
