You’re here to shoot fascists though, right? Spoiler: You’ll do a lot of that. Some characters, like protagonist Karl Fairburne, give pretty convincing performances, but any character with an accent or any character who needs to show more emotion than “Stone Cold Killer Guy” comes off a bit melodramatic and hammy.
And that would be fine too, except the voice acting is all over the place. It’s predictable, even aside from the standard “American kills Nazis” historical aspects, which obviously you know the outcome of. The story also suffers from the B-game feel. I wish there was more penalty to being sloppy. You’d think when dead Nazis started turning up all over a secret base the commanders might call for backup or something-or at least stay on alert for more than thirty seconds. The game has some AI woes, mostly due to stealth game tropes.
