Better than #1 In (Almost) Every Way
I loved the first Overlord and remember playing the Second when I was like 12 years old. I bought both on Steam back in high school but after getting into GOG's DRM free model of play, I was sad that the second game wasn't on here. Now finally it has arrrived! In terms of living up to the original, this game improves on its predecessor in almost every way. Gameplay is better, AI is more responsive, battles are more fun with the Roman-esque Empire you have to fight against. Your lair is more expansive and alive than the originals castle and it is more challenging in general (PLUS MORE MISTRESSES! <3) Only downside? Aside from how long it took to get to GOG, the story I think is not as good. The premise is fun and interesting but in my opinion, the first one had more mystery and beautiful fantasy. Lets put it this way, the first game felt like being a wannabe Sauron in a Lord of the Rings-esque universe where you fight elves, dwarves, nature, men, halfings, etc. The second game feels more like Warhammer if you were a wannabe Chaos Lord fighting the Human Empire. Sure there are elves and dwarves mixed in it but the primary focus is on the Empire. But again, this downside is more subjective and just something I felt between both games Overall, great game, great sequel, great that it finally has gotten released on GOG!
Hilft dir das weiter?
