Ridiculously predictable
If you enjoyed Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, do yourself a favor and don't play any other game in the series. Keep the magic alive and keep the Prince away! Jokes aside, if you're looking for a satisfying platformer, I highly recommend all Tomb Raider entries from Crystal Dynamics. They are much, much better. As for the Prince and his Two Thrones, it deserves no more than two thumbs up and here's why : gameplay is bland and predictable, story and characters are just ridiculous, and every single thing is scripted. The whole game feels like a long, linear and cheesy student project, except for the graphics which are actually impressive. Oh, and enemies continue to attack you during unavoidable cutscenes. Yeah, they do. Bland and predictable gameplay is actually a benchmark of Ubisoft games. I could line up dozens of examples, but let's just say this: by looking at the environment ahead of you, you'll know exactly when the Prince turns into the Dark Prince, and vice versa. As for story and character development, every single cliché you could imagine is packed here. I actually laughed through the whole game. My favorite would be when the Prince asks his dark counterpart "But... who are you?" and the Dark Prince answers: "Don't you know? I'm your untapped potential." Really, I feel like I'm reading some uneducated teenager's poetry. At least they had the decency to avoid close-ups on women's butts, as we've seen in the previous PoP title. Last but not least, every single thing in the game is scripted. Everything. This means that at some points you'll die when falling from some height, and five minutes later you'll drop from higher and survive, as it was scripted that way. It also means that perfectly possible jumps are sometimes deadly, while in most parts of the game the Prince will jump significantly higher or farther to reach the scripted place you need to reach. Your character will actually "slide" on-screen to lock on a faraway platform. It's THAT bad.
Hilft dir das weiter?
