Dec. 2024
I avoided buying this for a long time because I'd heard horror stories about respawning enemies ruining the usual gameplay loop of level-clearing - and of invasions meaning you'd get griefed all the time. I finally grabbed it on this Autumn Sale and... neither of those things is true. I've yet to encounter a respawned enemy (that I noticed), and Invasions default to 'off'. This is just more Sniper Elite 4, but a bit prettier. The pricing and DLC structure is still a dark-pattern horror-show... but it isn't a bad game at all, it delivers exactly what I loved about the previous installments.

Bit better than 4 with a nice range of environments, good graphics and played great on the Steamdeck with a few hours battery life.

I love the simplicity of this series. There's bad-guys and you shoot them. There's not 50 different flowers to pick or 99,000 things to craft in order to get a gun that works. There's no meta I need to follow half of youtube to understand. There's bad-guys and I shoot them. It's a real video game. Remember those?

Pros: - Customizable difficulties, good that you can swap minute details - Option to select Frequency of slow-motion/x-ray cameras - Pretty lightweight game, overall. Even in Ultra settings - Will grab every ledge he can, which means you can't accidentally fall off the map or a building because you stood too close to the ledge - Throwables (for distraction) are bottles instead of rocks which in-turn, gives the game a heightened sense of realism considering, in previous games you had infinite rocks - Guns are audible, even when silenced. Yes, this is a Pro as, not all realism is bad - Big maps, they don't look like it but, the maps are actually pretty - Decently, a lot of replay-ability - You can mark enemies with your scope, instead of only binoculars - Ability to switch between First Person perspective and Third Person during your A.D.S. - Epic Music (on Stage 5, hope this continues) Cons: - Not 2022/2023 graphics, more like 2014 graphics - This game does not allow you to change your cross-hair(scoped) like the previous ones did - No jump button, can be an issue when you fall down a 2ft (60cm) trench and have to walk all the way around - Enemies will act differently after loading. For example, if you weren't sure about a shot on a moving guy and, you save before taking the shot, miss then, load on that save, that guy might decide "Oh no, I was running this way all along" and, switch direction once loading the save. - "GPU Device was lost, game cannot continue" like, what? I only have one GPU and, I promise you I did not disconnect it in the middle of the game - 0 Ammo weapons (1 use) don't automatically get dropped, even though they can't be reloaded/refilled (even if you have their ammo type) - Enemies will hear you, even when it makes no sense. Example: Killing someone fully stealthily in that room and walking will get you heard by an enemy in a different room, instead of that enemy assuming that it's the Patrolling Guard you just killed+ - HATS = HELMETS, I can't stress this enough, shooting someone's hat off with a 7.62mm through a Karbiner 98 from 50~ meters, should not be a thing - Enemies don't stay marked for long, only a few seconds - You hit max level pretty quickly (mission 4 for me) but unlocks are only through clearing stages and finding certain benchmarks (crafting tables) on those maps, making unlocks obsolete since, most of them will be unlocked on the final stage
