Wolfenstein®: The New Order reignites the series that created the first-person shooter genre. Under development at MachineGames, a studio comprised of a seasoned group of developers recognized for their work creating story-driven games, Wolfenstein offers a deep game narrative packed with action, adventure and first-person combat.
Intense, cinematic and rendered in stunning detail with id® Software’s id Tech® 5 engine, Wolfenstein sends players across Europe on a personal mission to bring down the Nazi war machine. With the help of a small group of resistance fighters, infiltrate their most heavily guarded facilities, battle high-tech Nazi legions, and take control of super-weapons that have conquered the earth – and beyond.
Key Features:
The Action and Adventure Wolfenstein's breath-taking set pieces feature storming a beachfront fortress on the Baltic coast, underwater exploration, player-controlled Nazi war machines, and much more – all combined to create an exhilarating action-adventure experience.
The Story and Characters Hi-octane action and thrilling adventure weaved together into a tightly paced, super immersive game narrative featuring memorable characters.
The History and Setting Set against a backdrop of an alternate 1960s, discover an unfamiliar world ruled by a familiar enemy—one that has changed and twisted history as you know it.
The Arsenal and Assault Break into secret research facilities and heavily guarded weapon stashes to upgrade your tools of destruction. Experience intense first-person combat as you go up against oversized Nazi robots, hulking Super Soldiers and elite shock troops.
Checkpoints instead of proper saves and starting a new game for some mysterious reason doesn't do it under a new profile, it obliterates the progress made on the previous one. It's like the low level game design stuff was done by competent people and the high level design of game features was determined by complete morons.
Unfortunately this Wolfenstein is far more console focused than it should be.

In der deutschen Version sind leider die zensierten Texturen und der low-gore-Modus enthalten.
Der Kommentar
"Good news for germans, GOG gives us the uncensored version with full nazi ass kicking. Hakenkreuze on dead nazis are a good thing.
Only shame is that it took this long for the censors to realize this."

The game itself is fun comic-book action but technically it's a freakin' mess.
BUGS
- Crashes randomly when trying to skip a cutscene
- Crashes randomly at the end of a cutscene
- Crashes repeatedly when clicking on the collectibles submenu under extras
- Sometimes it boots into a black screen and you have to restart
Searched high and low for fixes, but didn't find anything that worked.
Playing with a mid-range system (Ryzen 3700x and RX 5600XT) and I'm sad and disappointed that a game made in 2014 is allowed to be sold in an unplayable condition.
The game could be 5 stars, yes IT COULD BE. Because of the background story, clever alternate history, great atmosphere, animations/cinematics, a bit of steampunk, the epic sound and music, not to mention the excellent gunplay... but no, I have to give it a big NO in current state.
Whatever happened to the DRM free version, it is almost unusable. The loading times between cinematics/levels/section can go from 15-30 second (if you are lucky) to almost infinite time.
You die in a fight? No luck for you... The game will simply freeze and become unresponsive.
Sometimes the wait helps, but mostly not.
You have 32 or more GB of RAM? Doesn't really matter, because the game can fill it up, while loading.
But that doesn't help either. The loading time is simply a real catastrophy... cannot explain with words.
When they eventually fix it, than I will say, that it is worth the 5 stars.
I do not recommend purchase at this time!
