    @Bichii how long did it take you? I'm hoping it isn't massively padded out as I can see myself losing interest and my backlog needs denting!

    @Chug666 I'd guess ten hours tops. Didn't do any side stuff.

    Picked this up recently on a whim whilst passing a CEX for £8 on the Xbox, I had a few issues with playing it at first which after checking out this thread I realise were all too common criticisms but have now just resigned to blasting through on the easiest difficulty and taking it for what it is, it is beautifully smooth and looks lush, though the environments are all so drab which I suppose is only to be expected for the setting but Christ On A Bike I might actually finish a game for the first time in about 5 years! Haven’t got a bloody clue what the story is (I just don’t care) at least you can skip some of the cut scenes.

    Shame as I remember that one having some really great CGI acting in it. The evil nazi lady was really very evil.

    I know it's Wofenstein and all, but the series really jumped the shark for me when BJ literally got decapitated and survived.

    I really liked TNO, but for me TNC was one big exercise in shark jumping. Completely burned out any affection I had for the franchise, to the extent I didn't even bother buying Youngblood.

    Agree with the above but the evil nazi lady getting her comeuppance is incredibly satisfying.

    I enjoyed them both but the first one was the better 'game'. Youngblood wasnt great but it was cheap and the story, such as it was, is pretty good.

    I would definitely buy a full fat third instalment to round the story out.

    It's an odd series, in that it's had as many spinoffs as main entries from MachineGames. The New Order had The Old Blood. The New Colossus had Youngbloods.

    I'd have to say that all the griping that went on in here is what stopped me bothering with anything after the first one. :)

    Oh wow - never even heard of that! So *more* sideline games than mainstream. I guess that's what happens when DLC is packaged as a new game. #BangingThatOldDrum

    You fuckers all just want me to have to live through the Courtroom level. See? SEE?! I haven't even played the game, and I already have the same PTSD as you lot!

    And anyway - it's not even on GamePass any more, so clearly that's a sign. :)

    Yeah - very weird. I don't think it's the only one, either. I'd imagine it'll return at some point.

    Doom 2016 isn't on there, Dishonored Death of the Outsider isn't on there, Evil Within 2 isn't on there. You'd think they'd just put everything on there.

    By all accounts so far I'm playing it on ultra baby difficulty which seems impossible to die, so far. I did try it on the next difficulties up but just died instantly all the time.
