A Flawed Gem
Its okay. when it works its fantastic(first half of the game) but the lowpoints(second half of the game) are so bad it makes it hard for me to recommend. The charm and creativity Tim Schaefer is known for is certainly present in this game. The characters, voice acting, music, visuals and writing all feel meticulously crafted to immerse you into the metal world that is Brutal Legend. Unfortunately thats where the praise ends with me. When it comes to the actual gameplay its a clunky mess of ideas that feel under developed. The game starts as a basic hack n slash action with some vehicle sections which would be fine if the controls werent so god awful. Driving feels like slogging through mud in a tank, its just so clunky and unresponsive that it sucked all the fun out of the driving sections. The combat is fun initially theres some cool bossfights but this all changes in the latter half of the game where it turns into a bad RTS. The way you command units is just nonsensical, you have to be right next to units in order to command them so it becomes really annoying to try and coordinate your team in the last few battles. Some units counter others but its not clear what unit has an advantage over the other, so its usually optimal to just spam guitar attacks.The story and how its paced is pretty bad as well. It starts out pretty engrossing but at the end it leaves you wanting more as most of the plot points are left up in the air. Brutal Legend really could have been something special, but the gameplay holds it back resulting in an experience that ends up being more frustrating than enjoyable.
