escmag has written a review of Harbinger, rating the game 6/10. Their conclusion:
Aside from the novelty of being called "Diablo in space," Harbinger stands no where near the polished, Blizzard developed title. While the cynical humor might keep you playing, the devoid of detailed graphics and overall, hampering difficulty may keep you from enjoying that play time. Harbinger servers as a product with a lot of good ideas, and some truly great promise, but disappoints in the end as it comes off of a shameless clone of a great game. Silverback has a great building block and a great learning experience in this product, and with several improvements to the battle system, and game balance a sequel could be a truly above average game that Diablo would be honored to sit next to on the shelf at your local EB. |
