Call of Duty: WWII

Not bad. I haven't played many Call of Duty games but it's pretty much exactly how you'd expect. Extremely linear, run through hallway, exposition, shoot bad guys, rinse and repeat until the game ends. The ending I found was very unsatisfying, I won't spoil it. That all being said the game is extremely well optimized and controls are tight, they have certainly nailed that down. It's fun enough, nothing new but there are certainly worse games to play.

(As always, I don’t care about FPS multiplayer; rating is campaign only.) Had to sort of drag myself over the finish line with this one. Starts well but the missions quickly become pretty samey with assorted gray and brown forests and bombed out towns. Agonizing stealth sections in a couple parts. A few pretty good set pieces though.

Not interested in the multiplayer so that does not factor into my score. I played one zombies match that lasted over an hour and I got bored with it before the end. The campaign was quite enjoyable though. The story isn't anything special, but by Call of Duty standards, I was blown away just by virtue of there being actual characters with real arcs. The graphics are truly stunning at times.

great playing just once or twice. the story was movie worthy
