A step down, but it still has some charm
To quickly dispel the myth that this game somehow has a "deep" and "amazing" story on par with The New Order: it's a cesspit of toilet humor and heavy-handed preaching, eschewing even basic believability in favor of "inspirational" messages like "fat positivity" or... pregnant women can fight giant robots? It's a sixth grade book report on Quentin Tortellini that didn't even bother to spell his name right. It doesn't understand the style it's trying to ape, and misses the entire point of the original. The Nazis no longer feel like a credible threat, despite them taking over the goddamn world in the last game, and the protagonists no longer have a shred of depth or likability. If you're planning on playing this for the story, *don't.* You will be dreadfully disappointed. But this is a video game, so... how's the gameplay? Your mileage may vary. If you're planning on playing the console version, *don't.* If you have a good PC, but you're thinking about playing with a controller, *don't.* The combat is tuned entirely for keyboard and mouse. No amount of aim assist will save you from the game's *extremely* low time-to-kill and lightning fast enemies. Stealth, too, is absurdly overtuned, allowing enemies to see you through walls, and having some enemies that just can't be killed quietly. This isn't to say *everything* is stacked against the player. There are early game upgrades that allow you to completely shred through even the tankiest enemies, but this goes both ways. The average player will need the speed and precision of mouse and keyboard, and there just isn't any getting around that. If you play by the rules, you certainly *can* have fun here, especially if you like save-scumming, but it still never rises to the highs of its predecessors.
