OMG This is coooool game :D but not for me really. So first things first. YOU CAN'T SAVE I will never accept that, never! There is not a single reason that should prevent me from saving the game when I want during non-combat sections! Good thing is the game saves when you quit so you don't have to reach any "specific" checkpoint or lose progress and yes I completed the game but won't play it again until the save system will be changed. What's good about the game? Basically everything because it's refreshing and well made. Combat is interesting and challenging. The turn based system is easy to learn and allows for interesting tactics. Character progression is simple. The plot is interesting and choices you make sometimes can be tough. Game isn't too long which is actually good thing because it could get boring and look like dragging the game. So if you want combat + dialogues with great music and good looking drawings I recommend you this game. It's a game which had an idea and implemented it well there won't be any fireworks and you will either like it or not here's no middle ground
This games is simply amazing. It looks cool, it has one of the best co-op I saw, it allows for so many things that earlier RPGs like Baldur's Gate could not allow due to technology, it's just awesome. If you really like good RPG, if you miss looking for secrets and opening hidden chests (or destroying them if they're locked !) if tactical turn based combat with environment taking huge role in it.... you have to play this game. I was not a fan of previous series of divinity but this was steal my heart. After a shadowrun returns, this title says again that RPGs are not dead and they are finally making a come back using all the modern technology to be remembered and put in hall of fame alongside planescape, bloodlines, fallout or baldur's gate titles. I really hopes wasteland 2 will be another great game alongside Original Sin! Thank you Kickstarter for allowing us to having a nice things again! And GoG (tho I didn't buy Original Sin here...I have a boxed collectors edition...sorry GoG :( still love you ♥ )
So after the shadowrun returns was released I watched review where was said "it has no quick save, only checkpoint system" and I said I'm not playing it (becuase often I run a game for 5 minutes and have to stop playing it, so this approach means I do same thing 10 times). With the release of the DLC they finally added quicksave so I said now it's time to check this out. IT WAS AWESOME ! I never had a chance to play pen&paper shadowrun but always liked the setting, so here was a chance to see the world. The main campaign is linear with not much of the freedom but was good to get familiar with gameplay, the story in DLC was so much better. Plot twists, finally some decision making, new features basically more everything + good long gameplay. Interaction with team and having "homeplace" where you worry to keep everyone safe is interesting and makes you feel like you're really there (of course if you want to read all conversations and there's a lot of them). I recommend playing game on higher difficulty than normal because normal, well I reload game only to check other solutions to a quest because combat was no challange at all. If you want some "classic RPG feeling" with machine guns, magic, cyberimplants I recommend you this game. ps: no voice acting a lot of reading ! you've been warned !
I bought it on sale and it was best money spent! Really really good game. I had a lot of fun running and slicing enemies. Quite interesting hero progression system + cool to shoot weapons make this game a great choice! And I completed it without hesitation. Adventages: Katana + close combat really enjoyable Weapon upgrades Dismembering enemies + more points for fancy kills Quite long single player for FPS game in these days Option to change your katana model ! :D Humor Secrets to be found Disadvantages: Could have more types of enemies A little bit more special powers to choose from No parry system (but this could make you want use your katana all the time :D ) Invisible walls
