[quote=@Fabricant451] What's the downside to this tho? Wolfenstein is the game series that had you fighting Mecha Hitler, zombies and mummies, and a medieval German warlord who was once defeated by an actual wizard and has a parallel dimension whose energy powers a Nazi superweapon. It is not the series that is better off with a grim story about B.J. being sad man especially since New Order basically opens with a comatose B.J. immediately being able to murder a bunch of Nazis without issue and ends with you fighting a guy nicknamed Deathshead who is inside a mech. It going the route of comedy and shitting on Nazis for being dumb shitheads is basically the natural progression of a series whose main theme is "It's super fun to kill the shit out of Nazis" [/quote] Yes, but the darker tone is what made everyone interested in the revamped series in the first place. It didn't have to go full comedy to shit on them, remember the two blonde nazis in New Order who you basically spend the whole game terrorizing because they're self-important shitheads? Wolfenstein had to change its identify so people were actually interested, which is part of the reason why the game is set in a alternate 1960s as opposed to world war 2. When they went to comedy (which the series wasn't particularly known for), it reviewed badly. Because that isn't what anyone wanted. I'd also just say that the writing is just, in general bad. I don't know what kind of message they were going for, or what the point of the story was, and by the end I just felt like it ended before it had a chance to say anything/their budget ran out because clearly it had half the budget of the previous title. Then, well, Wolfenstein Youngblood is a spinoff, but it's definitely a continuation of that style of bad writing.
