Call of Duty: World At War

Playtime: 8.2 Hours

A fun, but difficult game!

So, I played this game on my Steam Deck, and I must say, this game really isn't suited for it. I couldn't beat it even on Regular with the controls. It's amazing how much better I was when I tested it with a Controller+Mouse. I was playing a lot better and having more fun.

Regardless, this was my first Call of Duty game in about 8 years. I enjoyed the campaign a lot, even if it was difficult to get through. I had some bugs however while playing the game, where I had to repeat a level because it softlocked during a mission, but aside from that, it was clean throughout. I had the most fun playing as the Russian, and it was really cool putting up the flag at the end of the story.

In terms of gameplay, it's fun on the lower difficulties, but the grenades can be brutal. Don't expect to be able to beat this game on Veteran. I tried it one of the later levels, and there was a time where 7 grenade indicators were on my screen.

Zombies is fun as well, even if it is not the reason I bought the game. This game has a large amount of fan-made maps for COD Zombies, so if you are interested in that, you should probably give this one a go.

I didn't play any of the multiplayer because it doesn't interest me. So I can't give an opinion on it.

Overall, if you just want to shut your brain off and shoot some guns, this game is for you.
