Lionheart - Legacy of the Crusader: 3/10 points |
Agree pretty much with all of the review.
Nice coverage of the problems, highlighting WHY things are wrong, giving you the chance to see past personal taste in games.
That said, I would have liked some comments on the multi-player part. Two friends and I played together from the start, anticipating that this would be a lot more fun... and it was, but "a lot more" than crud is not much...
The multi-player adds to the game, BUT for the love of sausage... WHY are you all dragged into the same faction?!?! My fighter character became a wielder because my mage friend was the first to join a faction... I'm sorry - that's just plain idiocy and oversight on the part of the designers.
So what did multi-player excatly do? It helped combat a LOT. I played a fighter, 1 friend an archer and 1 a mage. Between me engaging the monsters, my friends could actually use long range attacks - something otherwise impossible in the game... well... you can get 1 shot off, before monsters close with you, I suppose.
But still - the interface size and lack of support for resolution change makes long range a question of being a few pixels away, so monsters I'd engaged could easily turn and strike my friends...
A final, general gripe: Where did the lovely criticals of Fallout go?! If I whack something with 40% critical chance I expect more than the 1 death animation there is in the game. It's not a question of rating, as Fallout has this fixed with gore settings and password protection of these settings.
Ah well... I really wanted this game to work. Bottom line - it doesn't.
Waiting for Van Buren, now...
Ah well |
