Blades of Exile: 10/10 points |
The moxt expansive game of all time, bar none. Despite being a scenario-creation utility, it has had scenarios produced for it that have been more expansive that games by the title's author. Every type of adventurer can be appeased by this game, except for one looking for flashy graphics or effects. The graphics were 5 years behind the curve when BoE was released in '97, but they are by no means bad. The upshot to poor graphics is the fact that custom graphics are supported.
Scenarios run the gamut- there are terrible scenarios, mediocre scenarios, and scenarios that the most seasoned game designers could learn from. Scenarios coming that resemble D&D exist, along with those that resemble FF games, along with those that defy all conventions set previously. It doesn't matter WHAT you're looking for; if you buy Blades of Exile, you'll be satisfied with what you get, and if you're ambitious enough, what you make! |
Fallout - A Post Nuclear Adventure: 9/10 points |
Incredibly competent, very inexpensive, graphically competent, but most of all, fun. A true role model for open-ended gameplay if ever there was one, Fallout is. A slow beginning makes for a poor start, but in this case, first impressions are not lasting ones. |
Fallout 2: 10/10 points |
Worth every penny and then some. Put bluntly, it's amazing; the story progresses at a smooth clip at all times, the gameplay is always engaging, and there's always something to do. Nothing in this game goes unnoticed, and there are reprecussions for everythng, both good and bad. |
Geneforge 2: 5/10 points |
The story has choice, but the methods are obtuse- you literally can't fail to notice when you're increasing/decreasing your "I like serviles!" tally. The sides all seem a bit simplistic; that is, the philosophy is aimed at fourth-graders in libertarian training camp. Gameplay is interesting, but only insomuch as Pokémon is interesting, and whereas Pokémon capitalizes on this, Geneforge sadly remains stale shortly after the game's opening movements. Lots of promise, yeah- but not much else. |
Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos: 9/10 points |
The human campaign is, put bluntly, one of the best times I've had playing a game. The portent used is magnificently laid out, and the Undead actually are menacing. The Undead campaign itself becomes so much more fascinating for that very reason; that is, you actually become the menace in a way that makes you feel as if you are in the shoes of the group! Unfortunately, the Orc campaign is littered with many missions that seem tangential, and the Night Elves' campaign has many more "let's gather resources!" missions than it should.
Re gameplay and graphics: Let me be blunt; this is Blizzard. Top-notch.
Worth the purchase. |
