Operation Darkness follows a squad of British SAS soldiers fighting the Nazis across the European Theater. The story covers much of the real history of the European war, including the battles for North Africa and the liberation of mainland Europe. French resistance fighters, American soldiers, and others appear as non-player characters.

The game diverges significantly from real history in that zombies of deceased Nazi soldiers appear as adversaries, and two of the player characters can transform into werewolves.



I can not express enough how much I want to play that game

It's a bad game.

I am really sorry I am finding a video game where I kill Nazis to be fun, Warren.
At least it is not a game where we have to debate them and give them a platform - like the British Media for example. (I am crotchety about that right now!)

People who call power-fantasies "adolescent" are really insufferable. What's the point in claiming something that nearly everyone enjoys is for children.

Like this dumb motherfucker doesn't enjoy an action movie from time to time.

I may be alone, but I've always found the critique "Did the world really need a game/movie/show like this?" to be incredibly lame and a disingenuous way of trying to inflate the importance of someone's personal taste. Like, sure, no, but the world doesn't need another fuckin Mario or Zelda game either.

I can't imagine Warren is in a good place emotionally about games these days though.

Didn't they start taking some of those free games off of people's accounts? I thought I read that somewhere.

A writer for Ghost Recon: Wildlands wrote a piece in defense of the writing if you wanna read some poo poo from a guy who Definitely Gets It, For Sure Man

quote:

I never said the writing and story were perfect, but it's a shame that so many reviewers dismissed the work because of their biased take on its politics. I have written reviews myself, and you usually take your lead from the marketing and PR because it's what your audience has seen, too. With a marketing campaign focused on how much people would enjoy the game, reviewers and players weren't expecting anything more than mindless fun. In most games, the mission giver is never a terrible, vengeful human being. Your enemies are never loving parents. Your allies never have political views, let alone Leftist views that your character might disagree with. And you definitely don't satirize machismo. Not in a video game.

I was incredibly excited for WoW Classic a few months ago. As time went on I realized how little time I actually have on any given day to invest in that stupid rear end game. I've come to my senses.

The one I'm really excited for now is Remnant: From the Ashes (Started a thread here: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3894897)

It's a Souls-like 3rd person shooter with big Hellgate: London vibes. I think it's flying under eveyone's radar but it's looking really good to me.

the answer is: no, but the studio was formed primarily from the people who worked on the syndicate fps reboot that flopped

I love that this most recently line of Wolfenstein games exists because every time some nazi shithead does something I just fire up Wolfenstein and murder nazis for a while and it takes the edge off a little.

By complete coincidence I was playing Wolfenstein New Order in November 2016, and the day after the election I got to the audio diary about how everyone that was defeated and occupied by the Nazis came to slowly accept their rule, and it deepened the funk I was in that whole week

Yeah the rest of the bosses had neat designs, so I always kind of wondered if giant boob witch was an in joke or Kickstarter backer goal or something. I think she's in the logo for the new game so
