Nostalgia
I played the first Broken Sword (Shadow of the Templars) when I was about 12 or 13 yrs old. I loved that game, it had a magical quality to it and is probably partly responsible for my interest in history. Ever since that first game, the series seems to have failed to recapture the magic of the original. This one comes the closest in my opinion. It has many of the things that made the first great: traveling through interesting and exotic locales, likeable protagonists, witty dialogue, eccentric and hilarious characters (although, it did seem like it was leaning a bit too into nostalgic fanservice by bringing back old characters). The plot isn't quite as exciting or interesting as in the first game. The puzzles are a bit too easy or towards the second half of the game increasingly ludicrous. (roach puzzle anyone?) And also, why the heck are George and Nico still not together yet ater 22 years?!!! Graphics are pretty good btw for cell shaded characteres (still prefer hand drawn though. I realize it's too expensive). Overall, objectively a pretty good adventure game, that probably deserves about 3.5-4 stars. But the fact that I have so much nostalgia for the original makes me bump it up to 5.
Hilft dir das weiter?
