Unrealistic WWII Simulator
I write this review as a World War II enthusiast, and I must say, I know video games can and will take creative liberties based on their limitations as software, but this game, oh boy, I don't even know where to start. While I understand the premise is a fictionalized tale, not unlike a movie, I have to say if it were loosely based on anything, and I assure you World War II is a well-documented event that lasted several years, they took some wildly fictitious turns with the source material. While the Nazis, curse them in hell, may have been interested in some sick and twisted things, I have extreme doubts they employed scantily clad women as elite guards, had access to such an excessive amount of FG 42s, released ghosts and animated corpses with ghost powers from their crypts, created monstrous robo-cyborgs with electroshock capabilities, and while The Greatest Generation is named as such for good reason, I also doubt the capabilities of just one man alone are enough to survive a great deal of lead going through his body, and I doubt the Nazi engineers developed and placed everywhere bags of medicine with hyper metabolic properties that cures wounds. Of all the World War II video games I've played in my life, this is up there with the most unrealistic. --- Joking aside, I actually found returning to this game kind of disappointing. I know it's a 2001 game, but I found the gameplay loop repetitive in terms of pure action. Enemy variations are not interesting, since 80-90% of everything you fight is a machine gunner. The stealth sections help break up the pacing, but nothing compelling. The story is messily conjoined, starting with one narrative then being put on hold until the last act, while the second takes up the majority of the game. Best Wolfenstein? Yeah right. I got it running at 1080p without using unofficial patches by just using the console, it would always crash on a few level loads, but lowering the resolution fixed this.
