Deponia 3: Goodbye Deponia

There's no logic in the puzzles and solutions in this game. Not in a rubbler ducklin way, the devs go out of their way to sabotage every move of the protagonist, and to have it return unexpected results. Because this happens everywhere, the player in my humble opinion, results to stop trying to logically resolve problems and rather tries the trial and error way, for pretty much everything. On top of that, the protagonist is an unlikable self-absorbed moron, and the game forces the player to do some horrible things because that's what that character would do. Overall, i, personally, didn't find that either funny or enjoyable, but rather, cringy and frustrating. There seems to be some sadism in the writing of this game, not disimilar to watching the Wile E. Coyote fail forever, again and again, while being a miserable stupid moron, with you being the coyote. Personally speaking, this isn't a fun experience.

I liked the trilogy pretty much. Cool graphics, sometimes non politically correct humor which was very refreshing in todays world. The game was pretty light, with a lot of jokes and then came... the ending. I don't know if people like surprises like this. After the whole game climate I expected some open, somewhat funny ending similar to previous parts of the game. But here? Nope. Main hero dies and the bad guy gets the girl. Moreover, I read on Daedalic's forums that no further parts are planned and the trilogy ended exactly as planned. Fun right?

Why on earth localization has disappeared?! Non even subtitles? After two episodes now what, the final chapter has different voice acting. (And having dialog based puzzles/hints certainly does not helps)

It's definitely better than the (really not good) second part in every way (including bugs and technical problems), although the end wasn't really to my liking although not bad. Runs perfectly in WINE with standard settings but thanks for the Linux port now anyway. :) It's hard to tell about the good stuff without spoilers, but I can tell, that it has some funny twists. Fifth star removed because of still too performance hungry engine for this type of 2D game, another 1.5 stars removed because of regional pricing added later here on GoG via Daedalic.

Not really a review more um..... uh Hey Goal help me out. Did you find the walkthru yet :) Some games are made for smartasses the others are made for walkthru's. This series is similar to The Book of Unwritten Tales. ie if Nate is stuck in a **** and there's hope, odds are there will be an ending but not yet. Once you get used to the cartoon nature of this series it is quite similar. Just Rufus is no gnome. But they are both complete idiots without walkthru's. (uh oh Spunky Goal is coming down the stairs Baby Goal hide me inside your clothing quick :P uh... Oh and the end. er wait What is this Star Trek And the end. Wait no that's not right It is an ending right. When? Probably when it stops makes money for anyone but Rufus :P
