Silverfall

Very ambitious game from a small company. It's a rough, janky and unpolished hidden gem. The gameplay is a mixture of arpg and more traditional crpg. pro: - very simple but satisfying combat - interesting gear - expansive skill trees with a lot of fun builds - choices affect what skills you can use (technology vs nature) - very good visual variety (areas and enemy designs) - the visuals are very dated but still have a certain charme - writing was better than expected and there where some fun dialogues - voice acting is allright (only important quests have it) con: - combat is very repetitive and feels more or less the same against all enemies and bosses - some annoying bugs (f.e. I couldnt complete one of the side quests) - very generic and boring story (basically chasing one mcguffin after another) - clunky and unintuitive controls - you will get stuck on terrain constantly (probably most annoying part of the game) - performance is lackluster (but doesnt matter that much because of the slow combat) - you have to manually install a legacy support version for nvidia physix to be able to play the game - even on full hd the text is to small to read, so you probably have to opt for an even lower resolution (I played on 1366x768) tl;dr: - hidden gem if you like rough and janky rpgs and arent turned down by outdated graphics

The only thing I say is if those who are interested like Dungeons & Dragons, then like they say the more the merrier.

La sfortuna che ho sempre avuto con questo gioco è incommensurabile; non so per quale motivo accada, ma succede ogni volta. Lo comprai per la prima volta molti anni fa, quando ancora avevo Windows XP come sistema operativo (bei tempi); i requisiti consigliati – e sottolineo consigliati, non minimi – li avevo tutti abbondantemente… eppure l’avatar che sceglievo era costituito da una serie di figure geometriche e spigolose di colore rosa. Di fatto non sono mai riuscito ad andare oltre al menu iniziale – quello di costruzione e personalizzazione del/della protagonista. Che palo nel didietro! Quando poi ho trovato Silverfall in offerta su Steam, ho voluto riprenderlo sia per un fattore di “nostalgia” sia per poter finalmente giocare a ciò che mi era stato negato tempo addietro. Peccato che stavolta si sia verificato l’esatto opposto: l’avatar è ben visibile, ma il menu di gioco con le varie opzioni è sgranato, indistinto, indefinito; di fatto non si capisce dove si stia cliccando. E dire che anche stavolta le condizioni per farlo girare correttamente le ho tutte… e invece non gira, ma in compenso girano a me un paio di altre cose. Capisco che i giochi vecchi abbiano talvolta problemi di compatibilità e che sicuramente, affidandosi a un esperto nel settore, sarà possibile sistemare in qualche modo la questione, ma quanto tempo e soldi extra toccherà spendere? Senza contare che, alla prima occasione in cui si disinstallerà il gioco e lo si reinstallerà, succederà la medesima cosa. Mi dispiace, ma proprio non credo che ne valga la pena.

At this point I think that the only old school ARPGs worth playing ( and I played a lot of them including Mage Knight Apocalypse ) are Sacred Gold and Diablo 2. And maybe Dungeon Siege on a good day. All the others are just cheap copycats, poorly designed and unbalanced, and Silverfall makes no exception. There is a reason it faded into obscurity.

A nice little game, for nostalgia alone. It's not that bad as the negative reviewers say. It worked well for me, apart for 5 crashes in all the playthrough, but considering the age, I can't blame that. Dragon Age Origins is unplayable compared to this and it's way more recent. I had fun with it. Worth the money. Most of the bad reviews are from players that didn't bother to read the texts from quests, and yes, it does have wide screen support and high resolution.

Рпг про приключения заряженного мужика (или женщины) в фэнтезийных просторах с хорошей боевой системой

An oldie but worth playing. I often come back to this game now and again when I want a break from new games. I always get stuck at Cloud works though and not sure what to do to progress, Map isnt very helpful even from the start as NPCs are just green dots on the map with no names at all so you have to remember where each NPC is to see them for quests. Pretty decent. I remember getting it for less than $2 in sale :) Longer game than expected though

Empfehlenswert: Nein (persönliche Wertung: 0/10) Errungenschaften: Nein Positiv: - Keine positiven Punkte Negativ: - Nicht spielbar Fazit: Silverfall soll ein RPG mit interessanter Hintergrundgeschichte sein. Besonders die Auswahl zwischen Cyborg und Naturbursche fand ich ansprechend. Das Spiel funktioniert jedoch nicht. Nach Start kommt eine Fehlermeldung, welche nachdem man auf "OK" gedrückt hat, das Programm schließt. Diese Fehlermeldung kann man offen lassen kann, um auf die benötigte Minutenanzahl zu kommen, damit man ein Review schreiben kann. Nicht spielbar und somit auch nicht Empfehlenswert!!!!
