I still have a lot more of this game to see and a lot more of its mindset to internalize, but it is legendary for a reason, and finally assessable to those who were intimidated by the ASCII before. It's deceptively simple to start playing, but to actually get what's special out of it, you need to learn to find the story in it's unrelentingly comprehensive simulation.

I'll fully concede that this score might be on me. I played this game kinda briskly/hyper efficiently, without really pushing to express myself, which does take no small amount of wind out of the game's sail. That said, I can only rate my own experience, which was off an aesthetically interesting stealth game with disappointingly shallow gameplay.

A top-of-the-line rouge-like with plenty of modernizing touches to make it welcoming to new players to the genre (like I was when I first played it!). I still suck at it and have never gotten passed the jungle, but I revisit it regularly and one day will swallow my pride and just play it in Roleplay mode to experience it as the fantastic, unique RPG that it also is. Can't wait for 1.0!

Probably my favorite and most played COD. Zombies at its purest, one of the last great WWII FPS campaigns of the era with a darker tone than was typical for the time or for the series. Not sure if there's anything there for revisiting but it deserves more recognition among the classic CODs than it gets.
