разраб ♥♥♥♥♥ придумать не смог, босс 1 на 6-5 локаций. Боевка EBAный кал из затыкивания, сюжета нет, ладно побегушки для пиздючатины аля лего, но они искусственно повышают сложность количеством нпс, либо тупым баффом босса, а ко всему этому убогая старость, клавиши не прожимаются и ты сдыхаешь просто по преколу ♥♥♥♥♥ п.с: еще и джойстик через костыли ставится, ♥♥♥♥♥ оно надо
I don't have any nostalgia for this game. Unfortunately It does still feel like a 3d platformer that came out in the early 2000s. There's not enough freedom with the camera. It feels very restrictive. I don't like how the game automatically switches characters. It just feels off to me. I failed the first challenge and barely had 60% of what the game was asking. Tried it again and again but not even close to fill the requirement.
As much as I WANT to recommend this remaster from one of my favorite childhood games, I just can't. There are so many things wrong compared to the original, even playing on retro mode only does not give you the actual XXL experience I've grown to love from the PS2 days, nor does it give you a great new experience updated for modern platforms as the game fails to do this in almost every way imaginable. Audio problems related to helms, boxes and even the soundtrack itself were never fixed. Added extra challenges feel shallow and lack polish like quick-restart, meaning you have to walk back to the starting point MANUALLY and EVERY SINGLE TIME making more than one attempt boring and tedious. Retro mode does not capture the original game's feeling at all, be it audio mixing, the lack of actual original HUD icons (you get a semi-reworked HUD instead that still disappears temporarily when talking to the shopkeeper) and many other small issues that are just too many to count. The reworked look is just unplayable and feels wrong in every way, with sounds often being too soft or just worse than the original sounds and the previously mentioned audio problems. Especially destroying too many boxes leads to just ear-destructing levels of audio overlap AND THIS PROBLEM IS PRESENT REGARDLESS OF ROMASTERED OR RETRO MODE! There's way more problems I could list like awful draw distance, half-baked controller support (IT EXISTS but you need to setup Steam Input) despite releasing on every recent console, visible level borders, drastic weather changes when changing areas with no attempts to hide it, AND AND AND. I just can't be bothered to list it all, Youtube reviews did a very good job of that already. I feel sorry for anyone experiencing the A&O XXL series for the first time in this state, this is NOT how I remember it. Just play the original PS2 or Gamecube releases of XXL 1 and 2 in any way you can instead of this failure of a remaster. As long as this developer doesn't go back and clean up every major complain about this game and refuses to pump out an actually finished game when it's ready instead of half-arsing it for profits, I can only see them and the XXL Romastered series as a prime example of terrible remasters and why this stupid slop trend should just die already.
Je pensais vraiment passer un bon temps et déconnecter mon cerveau en jouant à ça. En plus il y a des objets à collectionner et en général je suis assez fan de ce type de jeu. Mais là c'était juste chiant à jouer. Le jeu lag alors tu fini par mettre le mode retro pour avancer et il y a quasi plus d'ambiance musicale du coup... et les ennemis sont tous les mêmes il y a zéro variété, ils vont charger l'attaque pendant un temps très long donc tout est très simple. Je trouve aussi fatiguant de passer devant des choses que tu peux pas faire parce qu'il faut changer de personnage et que tu peux y accéder que dans des zones bleus ou quand le jeu te le change de force. Assez déçue donc je le laisse de côté. Il m'aura au moins permis de tester ma nouvelle manette.
Отличный ремастер старого весёлого бит эм апа из детства, сохранивший почти все аспекты оригинала (пусть и некоторые неудачные тоже), сумевший в недурной компромисс в визуальный и аудио стиль с возможностью переключать визуал и аудио между новым и старым в любой момент игры. Редкими неплохими отсебятинами (избить Красноборода на каждой карте игры) и всё тем же весёлым динамичным избиением римлян по всей их империи. С простой, но прикольной при прокачке боевой системой, разнообразными локациями и игровыми ситуациями, плюс проходится быстро и сильно надоесть не успевает. Разве что камера неудобна и в платформенных секциях может раздражать, но недостаток сохранился с оригинала.
This game absolutely deserves an hour-long YouTube review. But I'm too lazy to make one.
rOmastered version is bs. Old is gold: old version give you the right vibes. Good thing the left a way to switch to older graphics right in the game process. PS: for those who struggle to remove these freaking black stripes on a sided of your widescreen: theres literally a toggle in settings to disable them. A really wierd feature imo. Almost seemed like a bug.
Bel gioco, ottima remasterd mi ha riportato alla mente dei bei ricordi di infanzia. Lo consiglio per chi vuole svagarsi un po' il compagnia dei nostri amici galli.
Hej, ty! No ty tam nahoře, co máš na hlavě ten bobkovej list! Natoč se! :D
