Don't get me wrong. I'm half way through and I LOVE what this game is doing with the story. But the gameplay so far has been pretty bad. I went with the default difficulty and judging by what I heard I stuck to dual wielding weapons. The game was easy enough at that point, but nothing could save level design. I don't think I ever seen so many dead ends in a videogame. And who thinks that it's a fun puzzle to try figuring out where to go?!
I played through half the game that way. And then at some point I realized that I'm not having any fun at all. It did start to feel like a challenge, but not a fun challenge...
I ended up going to easiest difficulty possible last night. And that made the gameplay way more enjoyable. But I still can't process that a game with such great direction ended up with subpar gameplay. Even Wolfenstein 1 felt more polished (aside from that opening level).
