Forums - Gaming - Is dark messiah of might and magic the most underrated game ever ?

YES ! I mean wtf. It didn't warrent enough sales for a sequal. Why? I believe it's because people are uninformed of it.

 

It's one of the most awesome games ever made, with a cool story and some of the best first person gameplay of any game ever. This makes oblivions gameplay look horrible. I bought this game when it came out and i still go through it once a while. Even though it's linear, every time you play it you can play it differently. I'm usually a warrior who can heal himself (hehehehe) You can play as a ranger, magician, warrior, assasin or combine any class skill to make your own. It's so damn awesome and it hasn't gotten the credit it deserves.

Here are a few trailers. First is a story trailer:

Second Trailer is a warrior. Starts 1.04 minuts in.

This trailer is a wizard and a few of his abilities. Now some of them aren't fully upgraded but it should give you an indication

And heres an assassin:

 

How can this game not get a sequal XD damn it's soooooo damn fucking awesome !

WARNING: This game is as bad as most reviewers say (better than some say however). If it does get a sequel they need to change a LOT of stuff.

Not sure if it's most underrated, but surprisingly enough I enjoyed it. Reminds me a bit of Arx Fatalis. I'd give it ~8/10 at max (PC version). Or did you mean X360 version?



I hope he means the PC (which was quite enjoyable) version because the 360 version is the real definition of crap.



I meant the pc version i don't have a 360.

The game is awesome :p especially as a warrior if you know how to use the shield as a weapon and combine it with the sword and the kick.. and then when you get the vampire sword and the lightning shield.. that's where it gets really awesome :D

Yeah, I got it on PC too. Outside of the game crippling bugs (which thankfully didn't affect me) that prevents hordes of people from ever even completing the tutorial, it's an amazing game.



^^
oh is that what happened??
i got stuck in that early tutorial part of the game and i just gave up. good to know now it was a bug and not me being a sore loser.



I wanted to play this game since its release but my PC was never able to. Still isn't though, so I'm waiting for a new one.

This game offered many great innovations for it's time, but suffered from too many bugs and a meh story.

I must admit I couldn't get enough of kicking enemies into spikes.

Indeed but fortunately many of the bugs were fixed :p
