I would say Doom is a little more arcadey and repetitive (in a good way though), while this follows story progression of an AAA game. More like Half Life with a crazy sci fi nazi backdrop.How does Wolf 2 compare to Doom on Switch as a game?
I understand it's more story heavy and character driven. What else should I expect?
Cool, thanks. Does it eventually become possible to play individual missions after completing the story? Preferably with all weapons and powers unlocked?I would say Doom is a little more arcadey and repetitive (in a good way though), while this follows story progression of an AAA game.

Both amazing games with tons of action and fantastic gunplay but Wolf also has a very engaging story and atomsphere.

Interesting, thanks! It's kinda funny that in Doom 2016, while enemies can take quite a lot of damage, as a result of the new glory kill mechanic, the player can take even more.Doom has more varied weapons and enemies, more polished as an overall experience. I do think Wolf 2 is still quite excellent. The feel is different - enemies die fast and hit you hard, weapon fire and Ai behaviour makes it harder to avoid taking damage in some scenarios.
Unlike Doom there is a stealth layer. I don't think it's done super well, but it's definitely distinct from Doom's feel.

I believe in areas of the game you can replay older missions but I have not progressed far enough to figure it all out yet.Cool, thanks. Does it eventually become possible to play individual missions after completing the story? Preferably with all weapons and powers unlocked?
I enjoy both immensely playing portable. Doom was great because it was pick up and play, blast out an arena for a quick session.Doom makes much more sense as a portable game than this to me.
I think I'm gonna download this tonight, if I was decent at DOOM in Nightmare mode (not Ultra-Violence) what difficulty should I be playing at here?

Ah you can adjust it easily? Good.
I think hopefully the gyro controls will help me out too. I did my DOOM playthrough before they patched those in.
Do a Google search "Nintendo Account" and you'll find a web page where you can see and change details of your account. There, you can change your region within your existing account. I recommend South Africa, it's the cheapest.Do I need to make a US account for the mandatory download if I import a physical copy or will it work fine with my EU account?
EDIT: to clarify, my eShop account is german and I'm not sure what happens since our version is censored to hell and back and doesn't have the same content as the US or other other PAL versions.
Thanks, but I have no interest in exploiting their region free system to save a few bucks. I just wanna play the game in its intended form.Do a Google search "Nintendo Account" and you'll find a web page where you can see and change details of your account.

Well, now that you are on it... You can choose the US as your region (Where you would also save a few bucks) or any other country that isn't Germany or Austria.Thanks, but I have no interest in exploiting their region free system to save a few bucks. I just wanna play the game in its intended form.
...who is this man, and what does he knowI will be joining you guys later this week. Have a good time.
Oh there are many coming. Looking forward to it.
Thanks again, I'm looking into it :)Well, now that you are on it... You can choose the US as your region (Where you would also save a few bucks) or any other country that isn't Germany or Austria.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be selling all that well on the Switch in the UK like I presumed. I wanted it to of course but couldn't imagine a scenario where it would.
The Switch release pushed it up 23 spots, isn't that fairly decent for what this is? I don't think anyone expected this to move significant units at all.
Not really though, It's 8th on the Switch chart on it's debut week. It has been outsold by Splatoon 2 which came out even before Wolfenstein 2 originally came out.

I would play first game(s) after this, since to me it feels like TNO, Old Blood has better controls, damage feedback, not 3 hours of cutscenes and I like it far more....just an opinion.
yeah seems like a good sign to me tooHmm I guess, though I think the Octo expansion might be boosting Splatoon 2 a bit. But still, I don't think many people expected this to sell well at all, it's certainly no Skyrim and it hasn't even had good word of mouth like DOOM.
Moving up significantly in the charts is a decent sign. Especially considering the UK is currently the weakest region for the Switch.
I'm sure you COULD play it without playing TNO, but between the fact that this picks up right at the end of it and that a lot of the character work it does relies on what they built in the first game, you'd be missing out on a lot
That is pretty good though? I expected it to settle more at 20. I mean its a overpriced old port.Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be selling all that well on the Switch in the UK like I presumed. I wanted it to of course but couldn't imagine a scenario where it would.

The game itself was pretty great, I don't know why it got so much hate. Difficulty was fine, I played at the 2nd highest difficulty setting and never felt it was too much, I easily could've played this at the highest.
Let's put it this way. It bombed on PS4/X1/PC severely with a big launch promotion during the holiday season.Wolfenstein 2 didn't sell well originally anyway, and it's releasing at the same time as Crash; a game that offers far more value for money.
Not surprising that it's off to a slow start. I expect that it'll do alright in the long-run though, especially as the price starts to come down. DOOM started off similarly slowly, but has since done pretty well on Switch.
Switch version is patched to be easier. In the OG version you die in pretty much one hit :P
And that wasn't very fun when you just want to run'n'gun :D
