Had to quit after 3 hours due to boredom
I was hoping this game would be good but to my disappointment, there is simply too much I do not like. The graphics and animations are very barebones. Even though it has 3D models, they look like lazily controlled marionettes at best. In combat animations are not even synchronized, with enemies losing health at the start of the attack animation instead of at the contact point, leading to the entire thing feeling kind of cheap. The fights themselves play out pretty terribly. Your non-melee units are rooted in the spot where you start the fight. So against ranged heavy enemy compositions, where you melee fighters have to walk forward to start hitting them, they end up walking out of the range of your healers/support units, rendering them useless. Archers get a massive damage penalty whenever shooting past the range of 3 hexes and many units are outright immune to arrows. Melee characters can only ever attack the nearest enemy unit. There is no walking around enemy units, no in-battle tactics, nothing. The pinnacle of tactics is delaying your unit's turn to the end of the round. All that matters is the initial units placement on a hilariously small battlefield. Melee units then proceed to whack each other to death and the only thing you have control of are ranged units. It has zero depth and just results in constant save/load until you find the best initial unit placement and that's it. Not interested in spending dozens of hours on such a combat "system". The story might be good, but I won't force myself through gameplay I don't like at all because of it. It also has no voice acting and can be quite reading heavy, if you want to catch all the lore and stories. The overworld map navigation also feels mostly like a chore as the movement is pretty clunky and the map is mostly uninteresting, giving me no motivation to explore. I love Disciples, I love Heroes and King's Bounty. But I can't make myself play this game further. Giving this a 4/10. Simply not fun to me.
Hilft dir das weiter?
