. . It's basically just a game about an entire world where children rip animals out of their natural habitat and force them into combat? So it's basically dogfighting? Pokemon is child dogfighting.
All this coverage and they forgot to answer the most important question - does it smell like the old NES? You know, that "old electronics" smell. Like someone bottled concentrated nostalgia and sprayed it all over the console.
Really unfortunate that they don't have a chapter from the central powers perspective. And like Vinny and Alex point out it's really weird that the French are missing. Hell, why not have one from the Ottoman and Russian viewpoints too? Feels like they just made a WWII game with the usual bad guys and a WWI skin.
Not really, you play as the Italians in some of the missions and the Italians were more or less "bad guys" in WWII.
Except that the Italians were part of the Allies in WWI, so you're still only seeing the war from one perspective here. And I agree that it's really, really weird to not have the French as part of the game. I mean, not having Russia makes a certain amount of sense if the campaign starts with the Americans, since by the time the US entered the war Russia was well on its way to being out of it, but the French were in it all the way through.
@lawgamer: Or the System Shock universe. Or the Bioshock universe...
Its even in Gone Home and Dishonored too apparently.
Now I kinda want some game to come along that somehow puts all of these games together in a single universe:
Like that Lincoln Clay isn't an orphan but was abandoned when his parents traveled to Rapture. And Clay is the genetic ancestor of the System Shock protagonist, where SHODAN was actually an Illuminati AI created as part of their attempt to control human augmentation.
