What players think
The recurring themes across 274 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
And it still has the gameplay that I enjoyed in the first one.
Whatever resources were saved on HUD elements, graphics, and lighting (ROTT doesn admittedly look the most rough around the edges compared to its’ IdTech stablemates like Wolf3D, Doom, Heretic and the like) were clearly invested in many other technical areas of the game however.
The shooting is still great and there are more weapons as well.
Its neat to see a Wolf3D-era shooter with a semblance of story and more progression than just "find your way through this giant maze." TL;DR TOOK INFORMANTS STUFF anD SHOT HIM DEAD 11/10 WOULD MURDER AGAIN.
Enemy animations, weapon feedback, and sound effects all serve the fantasy of being a lone agent infiltrating a dystopian facility.
You'll get lost and frustrated, but the difficulty is balanced with playability, and that's what keeps a connoisseur of first-person shooters from giving up.
