Blend of old and new, held back by tech
I like ToB straight approach: few cutscenes, no gimmicks, no forced stealth, scalable difficulty The story still has it's moments and goes for a decent home video action/horror atmosphere, characters are also decent if a little unmemorable. Gameplaywise it's simple, featuring only akimbo and leaning as "gimmicks" which both integrate very well. Akimbo brings some element of strategy into the mix as you deal more damage, but also burn your ammo faster. Leaning works great, both dynamically and on-demand, and gives the game a more cinematic feel without taking control away from the player. Proven Old-school standards like pickups and secrets add depth and a plastic feel to the levels, and the option to "overdrive", meaning stack beyond max health adds strategy to higher difficulties. Overall a brilliant and varied mix, and now: the problems. The game features a console for advanced configuration, at least in theory, as most commands are sabotaged in this version, saying "This is not possible in retail" or something like that, it's just infuriating that anyone thought crippling a singe player game like that was reasonable. If Machine Games was that serious about achievements and online leaderboards (which don't work in this version anyway) they should just mark more radical commands as cheats. Ultralow configs are an accessability issue for low-spec gamers, and Machine Games does a great disservice to them. Also the cutscenes more often then not crash the game, as well as chapter transitions, making a permadeath run completely impossible. This is especially sad, as otherwise I would have considered a "Mein Leben" permadeath run completely adequate for a gem like this. Still, I think the pros outweigh the cons for this one, and I sincerely recommend this title. It's my first Wolfenstein title and it's completely Uncut in Germany thanks to new legislation.
