Rebellion shoots straight for our hearts.
Since Sniper Elite V2 introduced X-ray kill cams to the series, the ability to witness lingering, slow-motion testicle destruction has been something of sore point for players (in every respect). But while “nut shots” have floated to the surface in an otherwise serious, and rather ambitious, series, there are much greater horrors to be found in Sniper Elite 4.
Take the occasion I loosed a shot at another sniper searching for my position, and watched as it skimmed the edge of the sights he was using and plunged into his chin, shattering his jaw into jagged splinters. Or the time one of my bullets carved a channel across the back of a hapless enemy, then ricocheted off his shoulder blade and deeper into his chest cavity. Or the panicked moment I was surprised by a patrolling soldier and watched as the knife I thrust into his heart ended its beating. It’s thrilling stuff, but it is horrible, too.
