I'm truly baffled that steaming piles of shit like this game are still released in this day and age. How is it fucking legal? How can developers be so completely not self aware? The cherry on top is that disgrace of an ending that leaves the series open for sequels in an attempt to grab more cash, just in case they accidentally made something that is t worthless. The whole time I was waiting for the end just so I could say I finished it, but it was so unsatisfying it's like I got punished for beating the game. It was like holding in a sneeze. I would have preferred the developer to just come to my house and take a shit on my face instead.

yeah it's pretty bad, the story is trash and the gunplay is CoD tier

What was amazing about it? The gameplay was kind of fun, but so shallow and nothing we all haven't played hundreds of times before. And those missions between the shoot em up missions were so fucking boring they put me to sleep holy shit what a waste of time what were they thinking.

I couldn't get past the first 30 minutes and how utterly un-FPS-like it was.

I mean jesus, just when I thought they'd hand me a gun and tell me to shoot things it just kept going like this. I kept asking myself "This is Wolfenstein, right? I mean, I didn't download Gone Home 2 by mistake?" It saddened me more to realize I was playing the right game.

Maybe an FPS was a bad choice for you then, I suggest RPGs or card battle games since your reason for hating the game described the entire FPS genre.

Every aspect of the game that didn't involve shooting guys with guns was garbage and even that was mediocre. Just because it wasn't a railshooter and you had to find your way around doesn't mean it was automatically good.

Spoken like someone who hasn't experienced 120hz+

Console faggots think 30fps is fine too, and you know better. Don't you think that maybe you're just ignorant?

I'm not saying a game *has* to be 120fps, I'm saying there isn't a reason it should be *arbitrarily* kept from going that fast when your PC has the power to do it.

It's so fucking sluggish and tedious to play
You have to constantly stop and press X to pickup shit instead of automatic pickups like Wolf3D/Quake/DOOM
and you always get interuppted with cinematic quicktime event bullshit, it's dumb.
I like the aesthetic - but it goes to waste
>>
>>340020287
No-one but tech autists really care about going above 60fps anon, there's really no reason to do so apart from going "look how good my computer is". A few years back most people were arguing that 60fps was the highest you needed, and it's just jumped up to 120fps for no apparent reason.
>>
>>340019062
This game and DOOM were so fucking great, god damn its amazing how ID is now back on track with good shooters.

You've been bombarded with shit games for so long that you have no standards left. Just because the gunplay, one element of the game, was acceptable(barely) it doesn't mean that it was good or worth defending on the Internet.
>>
>>340019062
Wolfenstein TNO and TOB are goat, my bait-tossing friend.
>>
>>340020878
>for no apparent reason
It became affordable, actually, and thanks to consoles, PCs (good ones, anyway) have a lot of overhead now that graphical fidelity is not being pushed anymore. So why not use that overhead for increased framerate?

It's not worthless, the difference is totally obvious once you see it, ESPECIALLY in FPS games. Without mouse smoothing enabled, 60fps in an FPS feels really jerky to me, and enabling mouse smoothing gives you less input accuracy. And that's just the visual argument, 120hz is also much less laggy. Just moving my cursor around the desktop right now and it feels like it has a 1-to-1 correspondence with my hand movement, something I'm sure you also think is true for your 60hz monitor, but that's just because you haven't experienced this yet

There's always a resist to change but this is just one of those bullshit things when there's no good reason to cap things arbitrarily like this, just because some developers are incredibly lazy and they don't want to add a couple of interpolation functions in their physics engine. Literally all it takes and we can stop arbitrary caps. Surely you're upset when games are capped at 30 fps? 10 years from now you'll think the same way I do now about 60 fps caps.

personally, i thought it was fun. the only straight-up shooter in a long time that was fun enough for me to complete. also, this "one element" is totally ubiquitous throughout the game so i think it's fair to find the game fun because of it.

Doom was shit. Putting it in the same boat as Wolfenstein is fucking stupid. They have completely different developers.

Wolf had a great take on a the story. The gameplay was weighty and the guns varied. I was a little slow at times though. The world buidling was fantastic. The way they portrayed BJ was oustanding. I loved the idea of him doing what he needed to, reflecting on his choices, his life, and the state of the world in the manner that he did was refreshing. Having him die and having the story get wrapped up was great too.

It was a good game. Not much replayability though. It did cinematic the right way.

How the fuck is DOOM shit?

It has great gameplay, Story is "there" and you can expand it with the data logs and the world around it, DOOM guy feels like he has a personality even if he dosent say a word thought the entire game, all the weapons feel great and it feels fun to fight the demons.

I'm pretty sure >>340021586 was calling >>340020750 underage seeing as >>340020750's idea of a good shooter involves nothing but unlimited ammo and regenerating blood eye sockets.

I think that TNO and Doom both represent very different and very good efforts at reviving classic franchises. Frankly I'm stunned that they both turned out so well.

Go back and play Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, CoD 1, Half-Life 1, etc.... Faggot.

The Wolfenstein series was never a fast-pace arena shooter like Quake, Unreal, etc.

They are surely there in sequences, but if you're looking for a more gamey modern wolfenstein then I highly recommend The Old Blood. Very straight and to the point.

>>340019062
It was more movie, but atleast gameplay was decent.

John Cena character was a big surprise 'its all canon' thing was fun. The ending was shiza to short or abrupt.

It didn't try to focus on innovation or reinvent FPS but tried to polish its points.

Art was decent minus few gun gripes but its passable
music was interesting
VA was decent.

It was a decent game not 10/10 but good fun.

doom isn't good either and is praised excessively here. doom wouldn't have registered a fart on the radar ~2000 because the gameplay just isnt particularly good

Maybe I was thinking of regenerating health then...

The point is that TNO and TOB play like 90s "cinematic" shooter. Not "game-y," fast pace arena shooters like Quake, Unreal, etc.

If you want to run around a level at 50 mph, play those. And bitching about having to press a button to pick shit up is dumb too since almost every other genre does it.

They're using their Autismo-focus powers too much to keep track of their "competitive" stats.

All the Medal of Honor Series.
Half-life 1 simply because it has a story
Return to Castle Wolfenstein
Goldeneye
Turok
CoD1

Basically anything with a narrative and not just "pick up gun and kill things."

console shit isn't in the discussion, lol.

i'll concede on medal of honor and cod1, but not because they were "cinematic" i would NOT call them that, simply that they were slower...which makes sense its a fucking ww2 game not a sci fi game
>>
>>340024184
still, it was the beginning of the end
up until that point FPS games didn't have stories, quake2 had an intro movie and an end movie and that was it, otherwise just moving from mission to mission and who cared, just shoot these guys

half-life tried to make an interactive movie
granted most games these days are non-interactive movies especially during cutscenes but they are ultimately just deviations of the formula half-life started
>>
>>340024521
>still, it was the beginning of the end
no, it wasn't, that's the other half of your 2013 neo-v opinion

the beginning of the end was halo. half-life doesn't contain any component that led to the downfall of fps

>half-life tried to make an interactive movie
no, it really didn't, there are about 6 minutes of scripted sequences in the 13-14 hours of gameplay. overemphasizing this and not understanding that halo killed fps is pretty much the most 100% maximum neo v thing you can do. sorry kid.
>>
>>340024139
Wolf09 basically plays like COD2 mixed with Bioshock. Some of the modern FPS cliches sting it a bit, but it has a good length and good amount of hidden gold to look for. This review does a better job of describing it than my dumb ass can.

Once you play an fps at 144ghz you will understand how wrong you are.
