logging after finishing the campaigns, wow they're short, and playing about 5hrs of multiplayer; mostly only considering the war stories in my rating because hey the multiplayer is a lot of fun -- love the immersion this game grants and there's lots of exciting opportunities with all of the destruction physics. the campaigns though are a mixed bag, simple and short but a little lazy too. they're obviously intended to introduce the gameplay aspects of the multiplayer in a less intimidating way to a newcomer. but these cutscenes are either just not well written and performed or so bare minimum. and with some missions of the stories being literal minutes long it's kind of a shoulder shrug.
the immersion and core experience carries for sure, I like this game a lot and if I were just considering the multiplayer I'd be rating it higher probably. good game though, seriously

What a great game, seriously. I don't know if there's a more beautiful FPS available, even eight years later.
Great gunplay, great maps, and a great war (Get it? The Great War? Terrible war, though. Horrific.), Battlefield 1 still leads the genre as one of the greatest--if not the greatest--large-scale FPS.

My favourite battlefield because of how immersive it is. The game was beautiful at release, thanks to photogrammetry. It's not a battlefield where competitiveness shines, this is much more cinematic. The explosions, the sound, the gunplay... Everything feels like a movie. Truly my favourite BF experience with BF4.
Battlefields 1 multiplayer was incredible. The maps were so good and memorable. The feeling whilst playing was as if you were at war yourself. Details like the behemoth falling down or being able to be on top of it and jump off is what made the game special. The soundtrack was surprisingly good as well I still listen to the OST.
undeniably ambitious to make an FPS for a war that was considered "too boring" by board directors for decades. Let's not delve deeper into the ethics of considering one of the most taxing human conflicts boring, not now at least.
Incredibly immersive even in multiplayer, DICE really outdid themselves with the sheer vibes. The variety of guns is cool, seeing prototypes and concepts take on some life is quite novel considering the last game I remember doing such was the G11 being in Black Ops.
Multiplayer is much better with friends but the highlight maps are Verdun Heights, Forte De Vaux, and Zeebrugge

ah yes the Hellriegel, Reaper of Souls, The Gateway to Hell, Satan's favorite SMG, The Decider of Life, Daddy's Spanking Belt, Messenger of Hell, The Storm of the Dead, The Ender of Times, Hell's Dog, That One Gangsta's so-called "Uzi", The Austro-Hungarian Meat Grinder, The Wonder Weapon of the Central Powers, The Unfinished One, The Abandoned Pew Pew Pew, and many more...
My first and only battlefield game I’ve ever played…
The best thing that this game does is something which I personally find quite unique for triple AAA titles, and that’s the sense of respect and admiration towards the historic time in which its based. WW1 is probably one of my favourite topics I ever learnt in history class and I love reading and watching films about it (check “All quiet on the western front” what a wonderful film), and thanks to this videogames as well. Firstly, the visuals are absolutely amazing from the lighting in the war scenarios to the faces, everything looks gorgeous. The war stories were surprisingly good as I ended up genuinely invested in several characters and there is a fresh variety of places and plots to follow. Don’t expect some crazy new things to do but at least it gives you some very different points of view (all from allied forces though I would have loved a german POV) such as a tank driver, fighter pilot, or a horse-riding rebel against the ottomans. They are quite short but I way prefer this to a shitty and boring long campaign.
Now the online…I played this game 6 years after its release and the online was very active with lets say 8-12 almost full severs every time
I join. I’m not particularly good at this game or at any FPS but its extremely fun. Great variety of maps and modes, I don’t really care about the weapons (also don’t care if they aren’t realistic at all, because if they were then the game would be extremely tedious) but I love the choices of vehicle.
This game is beautiful to watch and feel, and probably for that reason I love it even though I’m not particularly fond of multiplayer FPS games. Occasionally I find myself playing online for a couple of matches when I fancy a grandiose old-school war experience, and the war stories are definetely worth it as well.
