Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus

An all around enjoyable game would highly recommend! Story is good as well as the gameplay and even after the story is over the game gives more to play with side missions and an arcade machine where you can play the original game.

This game takes everything that worked well in the first one, redesigned everything that didn't work that well in the first one, added a way more emotional and character-driven story (as well as A LOT of crazy happenings that will make your jaw drop or you tears run from laughter) and mixed it all into one helluva great game. Slaughtering Nazis have never ever felt this good before!

Thanks to a very good map design and a lot of interesting collectibles (as well as many "readable" newspapers, diaries, letters etc which gives you insight not only into the life of the nazi soldiers but also into the life's of the normal Americans and recently arrived Germans) It took me just about 20 hours from start to end on medium difficulty. The map design and all the collectibles as well as the opportunity to sneak around all enemies to try and take out the officers first (only the officers can raise the alarm and call for reinforcements) makes you actually wanting to find out what happened in the very different cities you're visiting.

All in all, this game was a blast! Great gun play with the possibility to upgrade almost every weapon, great level design, very graphically improved from the last game along with new shades and lightning, great character-driven story and a lot of crazy moments that will make you remember this game for a long time makes for an extremely well crafted old school fps in a world filled with multiplayer games and loot boxes. Kudos Machine Games!

I only just discovered you can review games here! I actually played this one about a year ago.

The story in this is really incredible. It's almost like an interactive movie at times. I don't ever remember caring about the game characters as much.

I wish it didn't have the venus scene. Everything hung together pretty well until it was suddenly revealed the Nazis have UFOs and can get to Venus in mere hours. What were they thinking? This idea clashes VERY BADLY with the other technology in the game.

The gameplay sometimes is boring, a little too predictable. Step A tends to follow Step B. It doesn't take long to learn whatever sequence is required to beat a tough scenario. And a lot of the scenarios just aren't that tough. Unfortunately just running from room to room shooting guards wears pretty thin.

The exception, and one of the game highlights is the jury room scene, I felt like I could play that over and over, and it was really challenging.

The wolfenstein series is one of my favorites and I was not disappointed with the new colossus. The acting is amazing. The gameplay is amazing. And the story is amazing.

"Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus" (2017) is a better game then its predecessors, and those where pretty good. This one has better story and storytelling but hey, you don't play "Wolfenstein" for great storytelling - you do it for shooting and some more shooting. And on that this game is very good. There are plenty of guns, and even more plenty perks for you to unlock them all. But for my taste this franchise is a bit to linear - i prefer more open worlds and exploration.

Overall, "Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus" is a highly solid shooter with cool story and good storytelling. It features great game play and its only downsize is that it was to linear for my taste.
