About Wolfenstein: The New Order

Wolfenstein: The New Order is an action-adventure shooter game played from a first-person perspective. It is the semi-sequel to 2009's Wolfenstein, however utilizes very little from the game and drops any direct references to veil or supernatural.

To progress through the story, the player battle enemies throughout levels. The game utilizes a health system in which players' health is divided into separate sections that regenerate; if an entire section is lost, the player must use a health pack to replenish the missing health. In combat, a cover system can be used as assistance against enemies. The player have the ability to lean around, over, and under cover, which can be used as a tactical advantage during shootouts and stealth levels. The game gives the player a wide variety of weapon options—they can be found on the ground, retrieved from dead enemies, or removed from their stationary position and carried around.

    not gonna lie, this game deserves way more respect on this leaderboard than it gets rn, the win rate speaks for itself tbh, every duel it wins against stuff like MW3 feels earned and not just nostalgia voting, people sleep on it bc it looks like just another shooter but it isnt

    BossWolf

    moi aussi j'ai eu cette impression en le comparant, la comparaison colle bien tant qu'on parle de rythme, dès qu'on parle de contenu Fallout 4 l'écrase largement en heures de jeu

    I went in expecting a generic shooter and the tone caught me off guard, there's a weird sincerity to the story that a lot of games from that era didn't even try for, though the pacing dips hard in the middle act and some levels just repeat what already worked earlier, still the character writing carries it further than the gunplay alone would

    Save_Spencer

    Sincerity is fair, but the middle stretch dragged enough that I nearly shelved it for a month

    pensaba que lo recordaba mejor de lo que en realidad es, lo rejugué hace poco y las fases de sigilo envejecieron fatal, se nota que el corazón del juego es otro pero esas secciones lastran bastante el ritmo

    Replying to Navas46

    funny how stealth sections age the worst in so many shooters from that generation, I noticed the same thing replaying other titles from around then

    Navas46

    yo tampoco recordaba el sigilo tan flojo, pero el resto de la campaña me compensó bastante bien

    Comparer un FPS à un Metal Gear c'est un peu comme comparer une pizza à un sandwich, techniquement ça se mange, mais bon voilà où je veux en venir

    CoopPhoenix2010

    Yo diría que gana en atmósfera pero pierde en variedad, así que empate técnico para mí

    Lo jugamos entre mi hermano y yo pasándonos el mando en cada muerte, y aun así se disfrutaba igual

    El debate real no es el juego, es que la gente vota por costumbre en estos duelos sin pensarlo dos veces
