![]() It works better if you hit them in the face, because faces are fragile creatures, but sometimes you don’t have the luxury to take careful aim. He mostly loads his SMG with Nerf because the Nazis seem to be minorly inconvenienced when you hit them. It’s easy to get overwhelmed and Karl isn’t that great at close range. You have to be smart about it if you want to climb a mountain of Nazi carcasses. ![]() ![]() Then there were times when I blew everything up and shot anything that moved, and Sniper Elite 5 was all right with it. Then there were enemies where I crisscrossed the map between hiding spots and took out every fancy uniform on the map. There were missions where I was only glimpsed by the enemy. If I wanted to, I could find a covert route into the Nazi installation, or I could just feed them all a high-caliber breakfast from a safe distance before moving in and spreading the love to their countrymen. I’ll be honest, the first few missions left me feeling cold on Sniper Elite 5, but that warmed over time. Once again, you get plopped down in little sandboxes, and it’s up to you to figure out how best to accomplish your objectives. The narrative is maybe not all that important, but it’s one of a few areas where the Sniper Elite series has room for improvement. Give me something to stop that would actually turn the tides of the war in 1944, like an orbital laser or something. What annoys me is that Sniper Elite 5 sometimes shows some awareness of its wackier side, but does nothing with it. I really want to spoil the ending because of how daft the climax is, but I won’t ruin anything. It’s not only staggeringly trite, it fumbles over itself. What I’m saying is the story is absolute garbage. Their business in this case is a super-weapon, try to act surprised. He hits the beach first to sabotage some stuff, then gallivants around with the French Resistance getting in Nazi business. Speaking of which, this time he is in France around the time of the Normandy invasion. Everything else is “not much is known about him.” He also has an American accent and eats apple pie, so there’s no real moral conflict here. The most interesting fact about him is that he was German-born, but it’s a bit foggy. Sniper Elite 5 follows the continued exploits of one of the most boring protagonists in gaming: Karl Fairburne. ![]() Sniper Elite 5 ( PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S) Africa, Italy, France, Berlin? What’s next? Did he have a stint sniping on Iwo Jima scarce months before the Battle of Berlin? Who would have guessed the series would have such legs, though? Or that Karl Fairburne would get around so much. I remember how cool it was to shoot the hats off of enemies in Goldeneye for the N64, but look at how far we’ve come with Sniper Elite 5! With the “X-Ray” cam, you get that up-close and personal touch, and watching your shot tear through the innards of Germany’s footsoldiers is just gravy. Being a sniper is satisfying and all, but killing Nazis at a distance just lacks intimacy.
