In some respects – particularly in its graphics and slightly more refined shooting – Sniper Elite 3 is a better game than its predecessor. That said, it's grandfathered in a lot of Sniper Elite V2's AI issues, while also forcing players to micromanage too much when it comes to sniping. The sound masking system is poorly implemented, detracting from the core satisfaction of landing the perfect shot.
There’s great satisfaction in creeping through the war-torn desert, avoiding or quietly dispatching the Nazi enemies. Nailing a perfect sniper shot from hundreds of meters away never gets old, and even though the campaign is somewhat lackluster, you’ll enjoy seeing it through to the end. Sniper Elite 3 improves on its predecessors, but it’s still got a few too many blemishes to be a truly great game.
Sniper Elite III's open level designs and objectives pack in more than enough variety and stealthy tension to counterbalance its thin story and shaky enemy intelligence, and experimenting with its explosive traps is almost as fun as popping skulls with a sniper rifle. The skeleton-shattering, long-distance kills are still its riveting centerpiece, of course, but even without the element of dumb fun they offer, Sniper Elite III would still be a smart, unexpectedly memorable experience.
