Good first entry - not as good as SE2
You are deep in enemy territory during World War 2, you're on your own and supposedly your main weapon is a sniper rifle. It's not difficult to tell how this concept was popular enough that there are as I type this no less than nine games total in this franchise(three of them zombie spin-offs and one VR). Unless you're nostalgic, I would overall recommend skipping directly to the second in the series. But I am going to try to go into some of the positive aspects of this one here. The story is kind of silly; this thing of you are the first warrior in the Cold War fighting it before it technically even began. But I can appreciate that they felt the need for something to explain why you're alone. And it does genuinely make you feel like you are alone surrounded by a massive military force, even if you're not constantly facing armies. It is legitimately thrilling when you're dealing with a tank and you're on foot with relatively little in the way of weaponry especially when it comes to stuff that could even put a dent in that massive thing. This allows you to approach at least some missions with a great degree of freedom right down to the ability to set timers for explosives to ridiculous numbers if you believe that it will help you. Like Commandos 2 if you're good enough at the stealth you may be able to handle your goals with the specific tools you prefer to, rather than being limited to what the developers wanted you to, in certain situations. The game has a decent length; I certainly felt like I got my money's worth. I did find myself genuinely engrossed in the overarching story which is part of why I was slightly disappointed when I played the second one and it didn't really continue the story so much as just retell it. There's a decent variety of weapons. Before playing I thought that maybe you would only be allowed the sniper rifle, but the developers knew this would severely limit the gameplay and so they went in a different direction.
Hilft dir das weiter?
