Wolfenstein: The Old Blood Question

[99GoHabsGo99]

Hey guys, I loved the Wolfenstein 2014 game, Somehow I missed Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, Is this a full game or just like a side story short game? If it's full game I'm def gonna pick it up! Loved the 2014 game.

Thanks!

It's a prequel to The New Order that's probably about the same length. Eh, a bit shorter. Maybe like 8-9 hours? Not as well received, I don't think.

I thought reception was fine but I just read steam reviews.

It's pretty much the pre quell

It's boring.

I couldn't get through it.

You fight these armored soldiers all over the place where you have to use your crowbar to pry away some of the armor in order to kill them.

It gets repetitive and tiresome.

I loved Old Blood but didn't like the New Order.

Old Blood felt like real Wolfenstein. New Order felt like it tried to hard to be Wolfenstein. Metacritic rates them both in the high 70's but I thought New Order was awful.

Just my opinion of course but Old Blood wasn't as far fetched and it felt like WWII running around killing Nazi's in a huge castle. New Order was just... weird.

Thank you all.

Old blood is about half the length of The New Order, the poster who couldn't get through the game because of the armoured soldiers must've literally played the first 30 minutes of the game because that's the only point they appear in large numbers. The second half of the game the enemies change up.

The story is centered around finding the location of Deathshead castle that you storm at the beginning and end of The New Order. I would say it's not vital to play, but both Wolfenstein games are on sale constantly so I'd say it's worth a try.

Oh and there's a 'nightmare' level on every stage rather than just one.

They reappear in the town too.

Yay.
