Been on a fun little kick playing the Sniper Elite series and the Wolfenstein series and want some suggestions for what can replace it once I run out of campaign missions to do in those games.

While I would love to replay the campaign missions of COD, I ain’t paying like $30-60 for a two decade plus old game from EA. While I do prefer shooting nazi nazis, I don’t mind suggestions that have you shooting fascists in general.

Not interested in debating politics, just wanna shoot nazis.

    It’s such a goofy game that hasn’t really aged well (in both gameplay and writing) but I absolutely love it

      This is exactly how I feel about the game. I recommend it every chance I get. It’s goofy and it has it’s quirks but there’s just something so satisfying about slowly dismantling infrastructure in the occupied areas until colour returns to the map. I actually started a new play through yesterday.

      Played it on Xbox 360 recently after it was mentioned in a similar thread. I concur about the story (and characters, mission design) but it’s fun enough in short bursts of 1-2 hours - if you go into it expecting a b-movie setting.

      I did enjoy climbing buildings and silently killing Nazis. The world is surprisingly detailed, even beautiful in places. Made me suspect a lot more content/missions might have been planned but were scrapped.

      What bothered me most (being prepared for the typical stuff this ‘historical setting’ is usually plagued by and the games of the time [gender stereotypes etc.]) was the Soundtrack - it’s way too short for such a long game and doesn’t fit the era.

      It’s not that it didn’t age well, it was seen as very goofy when it came out, too. If I remember correctly, there was a copy protection that censored boobs in pirated versions.
