Wolfenstein II ended up being a good experience with some problems I could not look past. The base gameplay is a lot of fun, the narrative has its own charm, and Mick Gordon's score is incredible. However, its lazy post game, poor difficulty balance, and the disappointing 2nd story act left a sour taste in my mouth. It's a good game... that could've been great.

Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is a solid sequel with small technical issues that not only builds on the great foundation that The New Order created but improves on it with an even better story and gameplay adjustments. Fans of Singleplayer-Shooters have to get this game.

The New Colossus may just be a surprise contender for game of the year for me. I enjoyed every second of my time with this game
Evil doesn’t need to have a name, sometimes not even a face. Through its excellent cast The New Colossus is a stark reminder that it is through hope, survival and unity that humanity can overcome dark times.

Wolfenstein II is a beautiful blend of classic and modern first-person shooters. It masterfully combines emotional distress and comedic relief with unrelenting violence. You would be hard-pressed to find a more stellar FPS on the market than the comprehensive offering contained here. Single-player is alive and well; MachineGames have proven that.
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is an insane amount of fun, and if you enjoyed the first game, then you are in for a real treat!
Wolfenstein ll: The New Colossus is an absolutely buck wild ride of a game.
Despite some occasional issues with abrupt tonal shifts and some frustrating elements of combat and difficulty, Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus continues New Order's deft combination of smooth, exhilarating gunfights and a story and setting with surprising depth and character that effectively tackles some dark and heavy themes while ultimately remaining fun and hopeful.
Despite some poorly developed topics such as racism or Nazi regime in America, Wolfenstein 2 is a funny and very well-made fps title able to entertain for a fair amount of hours.

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus has a campaign I highly implore people play. The pacing is all over the place, but its quick emotional shifts are to the game’s benefit – one moment has you seething with what you’ve just witnessed, and others have you laughing at the well-timed humor in contrast to a world so wrought with evil. Bethesda has resurrected the most iconic first-person shooter franchises, and MachineGames have elevated the genre with Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus.
Overall Wolfenstein II is the sequel that the series deserves and one that shows what Machine Games can really do. The game’s story breaks off its chains and goes balls to the wall, but knows how to stay in its lane. It humanizes both sides of the story, even for the Nazi characters. Not only is the story a thrilling ride, but so is its gameplay. Never has it felt so good to shoot a Nazi in the face and then slice of his buddy’s arm off with an axe. Do yourself a favor and shoot some god damn Nazis.
In short we can say, single players are not dead at all and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is the test. A game that perfectly mixes a fun, "ignorant" and entertaining gameplay with a rich and varied story that traces the gesture of a not so sunken protagonist. A game that lets you look also graphically, but in particular, it has a very good and fluid technical section.

With The New Colossus, Machine Games have proven themselves the Masters of storytelling FPS games. This is the new high water mark for every other game in the genre to aspire too.
Wolfenstein: The New Colossus carves its own path as an improved version of its predecessor, but the result is not entirely revolutionary. Come for the gameplay you know and stay for the story, score and characters that you don't.
Overall, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is a great sequel that once again demonstrates MachineGames' mastery of combining fun, fast-played gunplay with a serious narrative and complex characters. Is it as good as The New Order? In terms of mechanics and visuals, even better.
'Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus' features some of the most jaw-dropping gaming moments in recent years.
I can only go off what I have played so far, and that has been glorious, yes there are a few controversies surrounding Wolfenstein II, but what game doesn’t seem to have controversy following it. The story line is fun and engaging, especially with the often mutterings of BJ to a dead friend. The audio and graphics all both give great compliment to the game and shooting heads off has never been so much fun! This game is a great addition to the Wolfenstein name and I am sure that the coming DLC will only expand on what is already a great game to play through.
While the end result doesn’t quite hit the highs of its predecessor, Wolfenstein II delivers one of the best FPS experiences of the year with its take-no-prisoners attitude and cathartic FPS action.
While the gameplay can get a bit stale, the pure lunacy of the campaign's plot and cutscenes make this a worthy Wolfenstein sequel to play.
