Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is the eleventh installment of the Wolfenstein series and a sequel to the 2014's Wolfenstein: The New Order. The game follows the main protagonist, William Joseph "B.J." Blazkowicz, in his efforts to ignite a Second American Revolution.
The game is played from a first-person perspective and most of its levels are navigated on foot. The story is arranged in chapters, which players complete in order to progress. A binary choice in the prologue alters the game's entire storyline; some characters and small plot points are replaced throughout the timelines. The game features a variety of weapons, most of which can be dual wielded. A cover system is also present.

Plays the same as New Order, for better and worse. But the story and characters are just awful. It takes the sci-fi elements to ridiculous levels and the cutscenes are full of people going on irrelevant, long-winded, cocaine-fueled rants. The DLC was better. They're shorter, obviously, but much more focused and well paced in story.

I guess I’m just not in the mood for this. After a few levels I grew tired of the action and bailed in favour of replaying *Marvel’s Spider-Man”. Maybe it’s because I just finished Spider-Man: Miles Morales and feel in the right groove for more Spider-Man. Maybe it’s because Insomniac has a talent for making game loops, even somewhat cliché …

Maybe it’s because I just finished Spider-Man: Miles Morales and feel in the right groove for more Spider-Man. Maybe it’s because Insomniac has a talent for making game loops, even somewhat cliché game loops, a lot of fun. Or maybe I’m not feeling an FPS right now. Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus isn’t bad, it’s just doesn’t feel that compelling to me right now.

Finally getting around to playing this. I don’t know if I’m just not in love with the contemporary Wolfenstein games, or if I’m just not in the mood. I enjoyed The New Order well enough, but found The Old Blood tedious and uninspired. Now that I’m playing Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus I feel like it’s just more of the …

I enjoyed The New Order well enough, but found The Old Blood tedious and uninspired. Now that I’m playing Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus I feel like it’s just more of the same. I’ll wait it out a bit and push further into the campaign before I really decide if I’m simply over the series or if I just need to revisit it at a later date.

I don't know that I have ever been so angry at an antagonist in a story as quickly as I was at B.J. Blazkowicz's father in the first 10 minutes of this game. I can already tell this is gonna be a good story.

No me imagine que este juego contara cosas tan buenas. Muerte a los nazis

Did all the achievements for the base game minus the Ultra-hard one life difficulty.
Stupid Freedom Chronicles kept crashing on the PC despite numerous changes I made to get it to work.

Might write a proper review of this later. I have a lot of thoughts, mostly involving disappointment. The game just went too far off the rails. I know the series is known for over the top crazy stuff, but there is a limit which I feel this game crossed. It felt like it was just one-upping the previous game without making a whole lot of sense to me.
Also, I get that they wanted to maybe champion some social causes here but a lot of it felt very forced and clumsy. I found myself cringing a few times because of how awkward some scenes were.
I felt the gameplay didn't evolve in a meaningful way. I found the game harder then the previous one, but without tools that would offset that. Overall I had an OK time with it, but often found myself groaning and wondering how many more missions there were until it was over.
Oh, and the end credits has the absolute worst cover song I might have ever heard. Out loud I exclaimed "Oh Jesus, no" as it played. Find it on YouTube if you want to cringe to death.

So many neat twists in this game and the themes do not hold back which is really interesting to see! I am happy that it isn't afraid as it can give a really solid story which it does.
