I just beat the game and here are my impressions on the whole thing. It took me 10 hours to beat it and change (whithout beating half the side missions).
Pros:
+ Funny dialogue and memorable characters made this a treat to play through.
+ Great music for metal fans (including me).
+ Story was straightforward and to the point which I liked.
+ Beautiful world, really felt like a legitimate other world which most video games fail to create.
+ Some of the music selection for specific battles and scenes was amazingly done, especially the Mr. Crowley bit, literally some of the best scenes I've seen in a game, better than movies at times.\
+ Art design was great for characters, units, villains and the monuments throughout the world.
Cons:
- The low point of the game was the Lionwhyte fight for me.
- RTS elements can get tedious when they get complicated (which they rarely do).
- Not enough side mission variety and they get boring sometimes, but now that I've beaten the main story I'm going to go back and complete those.
- If there is no sequel to this I'll be very disappointed, hopefully it sells well enough that we get one.
The final thing I have to say is that the game almost got boring towards the middle, but the introduction of the Drowning Doom really reinvigorated the game. Bottom line is this is one of the most memorable games I've ever played and I'm sure I'll be coming back years later to play through it again.
How do you spoiler tag stuff?
Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!
