Why did people hate Wolfenstein II The New Colossus again?
Why did people hate Wolfenstein II The New Colossus again?

As far as I remember they turned every enemy encounter into nu-Doom tier arena fights and the story is laughably bad
Owen Wright
Isaiah Jackson
I hate the ending of the first with the super mythical power suit, completely ruined my immersion. The newer games just added onto the wacky retarded shit
Jaxson Miller
I fucking loved New Order and Old Blood
Wolfenstein 2 lost all the magic and it's a game you slowly grow to hate more and more the more you think about it.
The story is fucking awful with just bad writing and cutscenes that never end and worst is you hate almost all the characters since a lot of them are either annoying as fuck or total dickheads like that black woman we are forced to hang out with.
Plus it feels like it's trying really hard to be this "Wow so edgy!" game with tons of really over the top gore and swearing and just horrible shit. all the humanity and grit of New Order is gone and it feels like a cheaply made B Movie that's trying too hard to shock you.
Gameplay ain't much better either. it feels like a run and gun but your health is so weak that you are basically forced to stealth and hide behind cover it never gets fun.
Not to mention series only got worse after 2 with Youngblood being fucking awful
If this series has any chance of being good again it needs to retcon both Wolfenstein 2 and YoungBlood.
Bentley White
it was too over-the-top wacky, and then it jumped the shark with B.J. having his head chopped off and re-attached.
Josiah Ramirez
Alt-Right was at its height and the nazi's are the bad guys and has a black woman in it.
Dylan Cook
The gameplay is about as good as The New Order, but the story is complete dogshit. There's way too many cinematics, way too in-you-face preaching about how whites were the real nazis all along, and a lot of the levels are just less remarkables than the first game. The first game also had comfy moments with your ragtag band of resistance fighters, in the sequel it's just more preachy-preachy.
Part of why people liked TNO is how it goes really deep into the uchronian setting, the game's art direction is just amazing with colossal nazi architecture and mechas. By contrast in the sequel we don't get to see things as interesting, and a lot of what we see feels like needless sequel escalation (in the first game we had a moon level, in the sequel we go to Venus, but it's more barebone than the first moon level that also could've used some improvement)
The game also ends in a wet fart, I didn't realize I beat the final boss until I reached the very last room.
Never touched the sequel/spin-off, I'm still hoping that they correct their course for an eventual third game with Hitler cloning himself into an Ubermensch body to throw down with BJ one last time.
Ian Nelson
>Gameplay felt neutered due to the fact that the character goes through half the game with 50% health and it makes you rely too much on cover and stealth instead of being able to let loose like in the previous games
>Way too many cutscenes
>Writing of said cutscenes not anywhere near good enough to keep you entertained
>Extremely unlikeable side-characters, with some exceptions
>That final "boss"
>That retarded fucking sequence with your preggo wife saving your ass and being showered with blood"
>shitty side-missions
It was basically a step down in every sinmgle regard compared to the previous two. Solid 6/10, maybe 6.5/10.
Alexander Thompson
glad someone posted it so i didnt have to
let's not forget the pregnant woman cutscene also
Adrian Ross
>>Gameplay felt neutered due to the fact that the character goes through half the game with 50% health and it makes you rely too much on cover and stealth instead of being able to let loose like in the previous games
Oh yeah, forgot about that. Don't they compensate by giving you more armor though?
William Walker
Honestly, I played through it once a week after release and just remember turning down the difficulty one setting lower than the one I used when beating the other games because I kept getting melted in seconds.
Jayden Harris
Plot is off-putting garbage
James Robinson
Almost half of it is cutscenes or unskippable ingame events where all you do is sit and wait. And while starting in a wheelchair is different it definitely wasn't a good idea.
James Howard
The story was the video game equivalent of modern female standup comedy. The gameplay was mediocre even before considering that it was releasing in a market that was completely oversaturated with mediocre shooters since it moved towards being a sleep-inducing cover shooter. The setting maintained almost no sense of realism in a franchise that normally has at least tried to keep the kooky crazy Nazi war machines and space bases grounded with great art direction. The characters weren't just flat - they were fucking concave due to a total absence of anything you'd expect from a character in any media at all. The levels were bland cooridors and the pacing was awkward due to being jam packed with cringe cutscenes.
It didn't really have anything good going for it at all, in any angle or capacity. It was a mediocre $60 shooter released between hundreds of mediocre $5 shooters. Might be worth playing if you constantly crave mediocre shooters and can get it for less than $5 or intend to pirate it.
Henry Martin
Leftist preaching.
Jack Perry
Brandon Adams
Youngblood is horrible as the entire game is pretty much an escort mission unless you manage to rope in someone gullible to play it with you and even then it's just blander Borderlands
Elijah Butler
>Not the scene where Anya rips off her clothes, starts shooting and then gets covered with blood
Levi Gomez
oh yeah that's the one
Liam Clark
There was a couple good moments but it's mostly meh.
I remember liking playing as a wheelchair-bound BJ using boobytraps to literally melt nazis to mulch on the subs.
The level where you start in the courtroom in a sham trial and fight your way out was pretty difficult but I was fully invested in it, the twist got me.
But overall I still remember the first game more, especially the prologue, or the level where you crash into the nazi tower and fight your way down to culminate in a 1vs1 against the mecha.
Elijah Anderson
I'm glad we all agree the sequel is inferior but what grinds my gear is how most people saved Fergus rather than Wyatt.
Don't get me wrong Fergus is great but Wyatt is obviously the correct option
>Fergus's an old dog why Wyatt has his life in front of him
>Fergus asks you to pick Wyatt
>Wyatt comes into his own in the 20-years timeskip
>You get Jimi fucking Hendrix as an NPC and his death sequence is amazing
>The fight against the mecha powered by Fergus' brain hits a lot harder
Thomas Collins
One of the main things I liked about TNO and TOB were the setpiecey levels with a massive sense of scale, like looking up at Deathshead's compound the first time, fighting down from the roof of the London Nautica etc.
2 didn't have any of those moments at all and is mostly tight corridors - the only memorably levels were the airborne ones.
Also the villains in TNO actually felt pretty chilling, whereas in TNC it descends into bad caricature
William Phillips
and leftoids/jews saying that all whites who arent self-mutilating race mixing communist trannies are* nazis
Mason Lopez
I think it's ok to not like Nazis and also not like modern trannyniggers
Julian Rogers
Game glorifies communism
see how people have no problem with other games with nazis as the villains
When you glorify communism people know you're evil.
Elijah Baker
Have you even played the game? The communist you meet there is not exactly being glorified
Ayden Martinez
this was the most cringe shit ive ever witnessed in a video game in my 35 years on this planet
the gunplay and mechanics also fucking sucked dick, it was geared towards console players requiring you to take cover or you get melted by enemies, you can't dash and shoot at the same time, and every weapon basically requires you to look down iron sights to be accurate, it's shit
Jace Watson
The story is dogshit and the retards who developed it made every possible effort into pushing their worldview into the game.
No more sexy female nazi soldiers. Just a fat slob who gets pounded by an ugly nigger. And the protag William just doesn't give a shit about anything.
Carter Diaz
shut the fuck up nazi.
Lincoln Allen
The fact that B.J isn't slaughtering them on sight is a sign that the franchise is spiritually dead.
Cameron Nguyen
not people, retarded trumpanzees hate it.
But nobody cares about them, the game is a fun over the top shooter and while not as good as its prequel, it's still more than decent
Nolan Reed
He only allies with him because they are desperate to find people to fight alongside thee resistance and shits on communism while talking to him
Nathan Reyes
>forgetting about the cringe flashback to Blazkowitz childhood home where he murders his father
Adrian Campbell
shut the fuck up nazi
Cameron Barnes
Fuck, I really did forget about that shit and that awful fucking little black girl
Landon Jackson
God...
Adrian Rodriguez
because quake live was the beginning of the end of id
it was all downhill from there
they haven't released a good game since before it, and ql's only redeeming feature that it was q3
its worst feature was that it was browser-based
Joseph Flores
>starting in a wheelchair
wtf BJ is literally mechahitler? i love pesudo-id now
Tyler Rogers
>that powerful pregnant female displaying that she doesn't need a man to protect her
>she also removes her top showing her birthing breasts showing that even though she is pregnant she is still a sexual being
>she is then showered in blood, this highlights her victory but also represents her period, the ultimate form of femininity
This is the power of feminism.
Samuel Allen
why did the independent strong woman had to take off her shirt to go rambo? genuinely curious
Ian Cook
Why the fuck did she take off her shirt?
Adam Richardson
Because the devs are sissy leftwingers who can't write good scenes or characters.
Hudson Bailey
2bh white slampigs are made for bbc
Gavin Robinson
Gameplay wasn’t as solid.
60’s alternate history USA setting and plot was ass compared to what we had with 60’s alternate history Europe
David Barnes
It may as well have been written by Druckman with how subtle it was.
Brody Nguyen
you'll find out when you play it
Lucas Cruz
/pol/ fucked me up, i can't play the wolfenstein games without thinking i'm the bad guy. The worst thing is, i'm not even white.
Charles Carter
No one actually cares about the nazi caricature. and thus continuing to ramp it up as a game feature doesnt work
Just make them normal bad guys instead of clowns
David Long
I thought it was fine. Youngblood was an absolute indefensible dumpster fire though and I'm fucking pissed the 80s setting was squandered on it.
Hunter Hernandez
it's got fire on it
Dominic Roberts
would you do that user? would you snitch on your friends to the regime?
Colton Thomas
the tonal whiplash going between NWO and TNC is ridiculous.
Isaac Sanchez
Okay, so that explains why she took off her coat. Why did she also take off her shirt which she was clearly wearing beneath it?
Logan Foster
You calling me a Nazi isn't going to make me think invading Poland was a good idea
Noah Walker
Nah. US politics did. The franchise was turned into a political blowhorn for the american radical left during the Trump years. They even put extra money into ads where they painted people they disagreed with as nazis. /pol/ is a shithole that just exposes you to all the shit the media can't filter from you, but they aren't the cause for your brainwash.
Gavin Jackson
>2bh white slampigs are made for bbc
This but unironically Man black men have low standards
Oliver Barnes
Gotta take what you can when you are the lowest in the food chain.
Robert Carter
Don't kid yourselfs anons, this is Prego fetish shit poorly disguised as woke female empowerment.
Justin Young
cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene...
Connor Evans
not saying it's not retarded. it is. just saying that also, so are you.
Nathan Martinez
>fps "sequel"
>no new weapons and heavily reused assets
Lmao
LMAO
lmao
lol
Gabriel Brooks
in my point of view, the natsocs did nothing wrong and i wouldn't have any traitorous friends anyway but I live in a country where Japan fucked us up during WW2 and they were axis so i have conflicting thoughts on that since Japan during WW2 was literally how people see Nazis in media and video games.
eh. i will always thank /pol/ for making me see the "what ifs" and making me aware of what is and isn't true so yeah maybe you're right. US Politics and wokeness fucked everything up.
Parker Long
why do feminists love the idea of pregnant women being on the battlefield
Michael Nguyen
Remember what they took from you.
Lucas Foster
These game were made by "male feminists" user.
