Well i would be cautious about calling this a review overall
But my Impressions from the Demo were fantastic, i mean where should i start? The graphics while perhaps not the newest are used to their fullest extent with beatiful textures, great scenery and lovely little villages, the portraits themselves are excellent as well. I mean one can stare at the scenery for quite some time You have the aboveground forests and waters, open and happy and the more darker and sinister woods out in the sides, you have darkened caves with the occasional ray of light and cellars and dungeons as well. Even the arenas have been given quite a lot of work Spells are quite colourful as well without being directly gaudy. If we go for the RPG aspects, Kings bounty shines as well, while not having any stat heavy system, it does have a lot of text, quests and choices, allowing for some nice roleplaying if that is what you want (i know i want it And the english is impeccable so no need to worry there. Combat is nicely done as well with several clever ideas added into it, beyond just having chests there are other things that might appear to change the battlefield, different sorts of altars and statues that might aid you or your enemy with equal chance. I also liked how horsemen were capable of charging themselves if they had the movement to do it.. and the skill trees were fun as well, i quite liked the fact that certain skills could greatly change some of the units under your command giving them new abilities, although as far as i could see those were a rarity. But i quite liked being able to give my bowmen fire arrows. The only actual problem i encountered was a tiny music problem in the game where it once in awhile would stutter heavily for a few seconds, but then everything just returns to normal. So to sum it up, plenty of fantastic stuff.. my only complaint is that there isn't more if it like descriptions for the units But definately a must have game if you ask me Edit: But i must not forget to mention that exploration and having a good eye is rewarded as well, as if you look around you'll find plenty of eggs of different sorts and other goodies Last edited by Imperial Dane; 09-16-2008 at 04:17 PM. |
