Broke me, absolute gem of a narrative that takes perfect advantage of games as a medium
2015
Couldn't get into it, everything feels stiff, the systems built around crafting and xp and encounters all feel contrived, and the plot has some good moments but ultimately drags on too much. Sidequests are also all the same thing over and over
Stunningly tense take on naziism combined with some fantastic characters and a really interesting stealth-action hybrid combat system
More, shorter, Wolfenstein, lacks some of the punch that makes the main game great but still has that super engaging core gameplay
Same story that made TNO great keeps going but pushes the combat a little too far at points
2015
There is something MAGICAL in this setting and there's so many aspects that scream perfection, but they really dropped the ball on the gameplay I just couldn't get into it. All the unfortunate elements of grind from the rest of the souls series are amplified 10x, brutal boss runs, the STUPID healing item grind, unforgiving secrets, confusing upgrades, long loading screens (you can't rest at bonfires and they STILL expect you to do respawn enemy grinding). It just completely falls apart upon actually playing it. But I LOVE this setting, don't get that wrong, day 1 when this is emulatable or ported to PC I'll be first in line to make a mod that un-fucks this gameplay.

I can't believe they perfected the genre this early on, enemy and weapon design synergized in unspeakably good ways and the key hunt maze level design is addicting. Not to mention this game's status as the sole mainstream open-source title giving it infinite modability
2011
it alright i guess
Everything that sucks about first person stealth in one title
2020
You don't need to have a million different cooldowns to have engaging and thoughtful single player arena fps combat
Does a great job grounding survival horror to its slasher film roots while keeping some outrageous stuff for the end-game
Extremely fun core gameplay loop but that's all you're getting cause this game is 99% randomly generated
2020
Actually taking cover in real life hits DIFFERENT
1991
Super campy and contrived story where noone actually dies despite acting like it, but that somehow works to its advantage, while also having some super interesting enemy encounters
2014
Real fun, not much else to say tbh
