I loved all 3 games (Of Orcs and Men, Master of Shadows, Shards of Darkness) - this is a bit of review for the whole bundle. The story, the characters are amazing! If they ever make a new game, I hope good old Styx will come through and the team will stay true to the roots. These games sure have their unique atmosphere. Subtle, dark, gritty, humourous, nasty and lovable. I loved the level design and the art! Loved the stealth - and the voice! And the music, masterpiece! Loved and both suffered through the gameplay (at times) - but then, I'm kind of a noob - don't have much time to play - so when I do, I really appreciate games like these. They've got soul. Had so much fun - and pain... lotsa pain - but in the end, when I finished Shards of Darkness, the only question in my mind was "Phew this was a wild ride... okay, and what happens next? I sure hope there will be more of Styx!" Fingers crossed so hard I could break a walnut.
