He'd infiltrated the town and was working undercover Blazkowicz only arrives when it's time for the shooting to start. There was a point when I met with another member of the resistance out in the field вЂ“ the field being a small American town вЂ“ and realised I wanted to be playing as him rather than as Blazkowicz. With Wolfenstein 2, I occasionally wanted to blunder through corridors and rooms packed with Nazis (and Nazi robots and Nazi zombies and other things) as quickly as possible so I could get back to base and catch up with my pals. Usually, if I'm playing a first-person shooter, I'm going to complain about all the times the story got in the way of the action. This is, remember, a game about shooting hundreds of people, so for its greatest weapons to be its characters is not necessarily the best news. They're also the game's greatest asset and its most potent weapons.

They're also flawed вЂ“ sometimes too angry, sometimes too selfish, sometimes too afraid to face up to reality вЂ“ but they are the kind of people you'd want in your corner if the world went wrong.

They are survivors and fighters and thinkers, black, white, American Jewish, British, German, male, female, disabled, disfigured and powerful. Its heroes don't look like any one thing because they are many and they are diverse. Early in the game a returning villain asks, вЂњis this what a hero looks like?вЂќ She's mocking and threatening a wounded, degraded and broken woman. Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus does not pull its punches.
