Hello there!
Have been playing PB2 since late 2011 (with a different account, of course) and have played a bunch of amazing scenarios during that time.
I may be a little 'strict' here, but there are things Konquer was right about - despite his certain style.
1) The jokes - well, everything has its place and the jokes are no exceptions. In my opinion, 'joking' is hardly acceptable in an enemy environment.
Just look at the commandos / special forces during WW2 who were working behind enemy lines. Their tasks were serious and meaningful - like the ones in these series.
However, I can't imagine David Stirling being in a funny mood during action. I don't think I have to explain why.
For example, the pizza-joke made me feel like I'm in a fairy tale made for children, instead of being part of an important operation. Jokes and emoticons fit to a different environment

2) The designs- honestly, while they aren't that poor, in fact, I even dare calling them decent overall, I can't deny that there are flaws. The building, for example in part 2 didn't even look like a base - especially the path to Warlord Shen. A long corridor with a bunch of soldiers standing on it in a row - have no idea how such a phenomenom could be tied to reality. However, there are also good parts - I loved those windows in the prison in part 1, just to name one. Funny enough, designs were one thing that made me play this campaign till the end - the big picture design-wise was more than all-right for me.
3) The names - while I didn't see any exceptionally 'idiotic' names and don't think they are that significant, they can play a role in determining how 'fun' a map is to play. Ash, William, Dale and so on.. just give the impression of an average guy - I don't mind that; T. Roosevelt also was
just Theodore, right? The only thing which bothers me here a little is the lack of originality at some places. It's obvious where the names General Kassadin, Zed and Warlord Shen come from. But as I've said, names are mostly details.
4) The story - it mostly depends on the person. As a historical fanatic, I don't like things which are too unrealistic. Even watching fantasy is painful sometimes, haha. The point is, without SuperB story-writing, I doubt a few random dudes could save the world by killing a single person.
This isn't some Marvel sh*t - so-called superheroes have no place in such a conflict. For example, I dislike the way Zed, Seqret or Phobos (I don't remember correctly) mention Ash. I'm sure you get what I mean.
Sorry for the wall of text; if I bother explaining something, I really want people to understand what I'm saying.
And it isn't easy with short texts.
Overall the series are decent; I'd give it a 7/10. Definitely worth playing.
You might be surprised that I say this, but I wasn't focusing on the strong points above to be honest.
Keep it up!
