Desperados III is a story-driven, hardcore tactical stealth game, set in a ruthless Wild West scenario.
In this long-awaited prequel to the beloved classic Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive, John Cooper will join forces with the runaway bride Kate, the shady hitman Doc McCoy, the giant trapper Hector, and Isabelle, a mysterious lady from New Orleans. On Cooper’s quest for redemption, his adventures lead him and his gang from rural towns, over swamps and riverbanks, and finally to a dramatic showdown worthy of Wild West legends.
Play smart if you want to succeed. A good plan can make the difference between survival and finding yourself at the business end of a pistol.
Drifter, gunslinger, and natural leader Cooper can kill quietly with a knife, or take out multiple foes with his revolvers. Strongman Hector carries a giant bear trap and can slay the toughest opponents with his trusty axe. Cold blooded bounty hunter McCoy likes to be methodical, using lures, knockout gas, poison syringes and a custom long-range pistol. Kate can fool almost any man with the right outfit, and kills discreetly with her hidden gun. And then there is this mysterious woman from New Orleans, Isabelle…

They simply used the Sadow Tactics Engine as it feels - just with another (Wild West) Setting as Desperados used to be. The gameplay and enemies are pretty close to fairly the same as it has been in Shadow Tactics. They mixed it up with new Toons (idk if the different characters were around in previous parts of desperados) and different skill diribution.
I liked the story. The game play and maps are also a bit more fun than they are in Shadow Tactics. I just liked it a bit more all around. But lets be honest, its the same game in a different "disguise". Nothing bad about that. A great and challenging RTS game.
Just like "Shadow Tactics", this game is another great entry and homage to the tactics games of yore. Between the two mimimi put out there, it's hard for me to pick a favorite. This game sees a lot of quality of life improvements vs their last game, though there are fewer "high points" in the story, so if you haven't played ST, the lower price means a better deal is to be found on that game vs this one.
However, after playing the deluxe edition of this game, I would say that this is in fact a wonderful game that I often struggled to put down. The characters and their various abilities are extremely fun to use, the maps are beautifully designed, and the systems in place to make sure that the game is fun are once again, amazing. If you like tactics games, get this one. There's no reason not to. The season pass is by no means required, but all the missions within the pass are good, and you're going to want to get it because more of this game is never a bad thing.
I have been playing these games since the original Desperados came out, and I can say that this is the desperados pre-sequel I have been looking for. But while sound design and graphics seem to be improved since shadow tactics, the set piece moments and story seems to be a lot weaker this time around. No cool mission in the middle of a warzone, no epic samurai poem (or equivalence) and hardly any motivation attributed to the villains of the game. And why are the characters a comedy act this time around? Granted D2 made a mockery of the original cast, but in D1 the characters all behaved like adults, were intelligent, and always just worked together professionally. They were cool people, in D3 they often behave like teenagers.
But overall, a great game. I can't wait for the next tactics game mimimi releases! No matter if it's a continuation of desperados, shadow tactics, commandos, Robin Hood, or some kind of fantasy or sci-fi, or whatever else ethey do, I'm sure It'll be great.
I loved Shadow Tactics from them, and i love Desperados 3.
The game can be everything from easy to "i will need multiple hours to figure out how to master that level". I played it on "hard" and enjoyed every moment of it. The music is great, the characters are interesting and the story is also pretty good with some unexpected turns.
The level characters evolve throughout the story, and so does the music. This gives a very positive "i know that melody, but it also sounds new and fresh" feeling, especialy when the comments of the characters change. The voice acting in the german version is near perfect.
Desperados 3 additionally features "The Barons Challenges" which are way more fun than i thought - every time, the game mechanics are changed i a weird way and you have to fullfill some creative tasks on the known maps, for example only using evironment kills, clearing a whole map with firearms but without starting an alarm or freeing a character just with animals.
Desperados 3 is a return to form. After a messy Desperados 2 it took a while for a developer to pick up the mantle. Fortunately when that happened the team was Mimimi which had already made a hit with Shadow Tactics. D3 is basically D1 brought into the 21st century. Sound is great, music is awesome, graphics are top notch and the gameplay is probably the best you'll find in a stealth-based RTT. Well worth every penny.
The game was just extremely fun to play.
Each mission did a great job keeping me interested. Each one was different not only because of varied visuals and objectives but also because of available characters, forcing me to approach seemingly similar situations differently. I genuinely did not feel that I was doing the same thing twice.
I really like the presentation layer. The visuals, sound effects, characters voices, music - all are done superbly and create a genuine wild west atmosphere.
The icing on the cake is the story. I wasn't expecting much in this regard but was positively surprised. I was always curious how events will unfold and was rewarded with a very satisfying finale.
Playing on normal difficulty each mission took me around 1,5h complete with just a couple beginning ones being shorter and the last two taking even longer.
Well done Mimimi Games. I can't wait to hear about their next title.
