Dawn Of Magic 2

Work fine on Win10. 1050Ti / 6500 intel. Wtf is wrong with you people ? ) Repetetive hack&slash rpg russian-vasian-made. But It contained many interesting ideas for 2006 that were never brought to mind. I bought it purely because of nostalgia.

As a response to the prior Review I can say that it runs well in 1440p. No Start Up Errors , blank Screens etc. So if you like this Game or want to try it, I can say: Go Ahead.

It ran nicely on Windows 11 for me. I don't know exactly what dictates if it runs or not. Seems like a gamble to buy, judging by other reviews. I haven't played much yet (2h30), but I've already seen some downsides. • Weird repetitive missions with repeated dialogue. A minor issue, especially for ARPGs, but... • It has an odd dialogue system. You start dialogue to hear the NPC, then restart it to accept quests, • There are no safe zones, so you gotta run around, trying to catch the NPC to talk to them in the middle of chaos (which is funny, sure) • But then you have the unintuitive UI. The map is a mess, the menus are strange and the HUD takes a while to click. Tracking quests is a bit inconvenient. • And that's not even mentioning that the quests are designed so oddly that you don't even know what to do sometimes due to bizarre spawn points and lengthy periods of waiting for something that never comes. • An unnecessary friendly fire system that makes fighting among crowds a complete mess, and you have to in a few instances — the mortality rate of friendly NPCs is astounding • And a wild lock-on on interactable objects that ruins movement at times. I got soft-locked because I clicked on the other side of the screen and it thought I clicked on the portal. My first character is stuck on a boss fight I was actively avoiding because I was underprepared. I'll keep playing (with a new character ¬-¬), but I can't recommend it so far. Do not buy unless discounted. The vibes and the fun bits of gameplay might not be worth the jank. I'm not sure it's just age jank — it's been far jankier than Sacred 2, and aren't they both from 2009? I've heard there's a trainer for the game that could potentially help fix the worst problems with a good dose of countermeasure cheating. I'm considering it. However... it has some many cute details at times that I kinda just want to gawk at it for extended periods of time. And it can be fun... headaches aside.

The game had a potential to introduce an increadibly interesting mechanic of combining Spells. Unfortunately it is quite bare-bones, compared to wehat it could have been. The game is short. The plot and characters are underwhelming The RPG elements seems to aim for a much longer game. The monster variety, for such a short game, is actually decent. 2/5
