Let me say that this game was awesome and beautiful all the way up till the ending which ruined everything! How they get you to really enjoy the characters and the bond between each other, just to crap on it at the end! I don't want to spoil the ending but it literally took the game and spun it around 180 and took it into negativity and you just have to live with it.. suck it up and then the credits roll. After raging at the end, I went online to see if it was something I did that had the outcome and nope, that's what it was intended. They did release a DLC content package which had an alternate ending which was even worse! Only reason why this game gets 2 stars from me is because the art and characters were really cool. It's not a hard game but something to enjoy like reading a book. You're loving the fight between good and evil and then some Emo bat loving hater comes in tells the company how to do the ending.. just don't get it.
I remember playing this when I was a teen and it confused the crap out of me on the mechanics of the game and what the heck you needed to do. Like they literally throw your bran new baby toon in a town and say good luck! After some perseverance and sticking to a character model, like a warrior/necromancer .. I was literally able to destroy most enemies in seconds. The game will hype a monster up big time saying this creature has the strength of 10 men and has talons that can cut you in half! We'll let me go see about that.. nope! killed him in 3 hits and some magic and now he's my undead b*tch. The game's plot is geared for adults which was pretty cool and the humor was pretty witty and crude which we should all love. Just didn't care for the lack of direction and you having to explore everything to find out where you need to go in such a large game like this.
I really enjoyed the adventure game with such a dark setting and theme. Overall I enjoyed the story, but it was rather short and I wish they had more locations to explore. One of my frustrations in the game was where to use a certian object or some part on the screen that you would never have thought to click actually contained an item that you needed in order to progress. Other than that the characters really draw you in and you want to find out what happens next.
