Harbinger: Review @ RPG Codex
   

Thanks to "Saint Proverbius" from RPG Codex for letting us know that they've slapped up a <a href="http://www.rpgcodex.com/content.php?id=43" target="_blank">review</a> of Silverback's SciFi RPG 'Harbinger'. There's no numerical rating but it seems like they did not like it much:<blockquote><em>So, basically, this is what you get. You get an action CRPG with no role playing aspects at all and a character system that is both shallow and pointless at the same time. You're given no real choices in establishing an identity for your character because the dialogue is weak and what you're thinking is spelled out for you via some in game cut scenes. Why this is even billed as an action CRPG in the first place is a complete mystery to me, because there's no role playing at all. Advancement is even shallow and overrated compared to the items you'll get, making you wonder why they even bothered to implement the level up in the first place.</em></blockquote>

I think all reviews should have to give some sort of final score. I mean, they obviously didn't like the game, but it's really hard to tell how deep the disliking of the game is without seeing a final score.

I think he did not like it at all: he called it a bad, awful game..

I tried the demo, and the reviewer is completely correct in his statements, but it don't necessarily mean, that it is a bad game. It's a very alike Diablo 2 clone in a mostly dark & grey Scifi universe, where you fight robots, and starwars troopers
