Wolfenstein 3 Can’t Pull Its Punches Like Youngblood

Wolfenstein 3 Can’t Pull Its Punches Like Youngblood https://ift.tt/7tHpgnq Wolfenstein: Youngblood was one sour batch of sauerkraut. Marinated in a noxious and ill-fitting live-service-adjacent brine, this troubled spin-off (and the mediocre virtual reality title it launched alongside) left a bad taste that has lingered for almost seven years.

Warning: The following contains spoilers for Prime Video's Gen V through Episode 5 of Season 1. If you haven't caught up with the series yet, you may want to wait until you do.
