   I was utterly fascinated with the concept of a time traveling shooter and eagerly picked up Darkest of Days. Right out of the gate my hopes got a quick reality check.Darkest of Days tries to put you in the middle of the battle and does a good job when it forces you to play the part you've "jumped" into. Most notably, the first Civil War mission really made me feel like I was blending in to not disrupt history and that I was really there. Unfortunately it goes down hill quickly from there. The plot begins to meander quickly with, and the level design becomes worse and worse. I found more invisible wall in DoD than in another game I've played, often in areas that seemed to suffer from serious "rail-shooter"-itis. Darkest of Day's concept is there, but the writing (especially the dialogue) doesn't do it justice. When you are told by a mysterious stranger literally "You are actually working for the bad guys" you can't help but laugh. Your partner's quips are forgettable and his ever present Australian Boony cap is always out of place and almost stands out for everything wrong with DoD. Yeah you (the developer) may think its cool, but does it make sense? I wouldn't mind a DoD2, but put a bit more thought into the story and level design next time guys.
   
   TLDR: If the concept of killing Prussians with a man portable MIRV launcher is your thing, its worth snagging if it ever goes on sale on steam. Bad level design and bad writing make DoD sadly forgettable.… Expand

   I had very high hopes for this game. I can't recomend this to anybody and it is nowhere near worth the $39.99 price tag. It's story is apauling, the A.I. is disgusting and the new engine for graphics is ugly. It's also only single player with short repeating missions that have no replay value. Do people even take time to sit down and think of a story, fun gameplay, good A.I.? This disgusting excuse for a game is proof they don't, they just throw together a pile of garbage, don't care about the result and put an over priced tag on it. This game is like a steak that players ordered medieum well but it comes out rare and it leaves a bad taste in your mouth.… Expand
