SpellForce 2 - Demons of the Past

Terrible game! Nothing comparable to SpellForce: The Order of Dawn (2003) or even SpellForce 2: Shadow Wars (2006). Abominable story, amateur script, amateur dialogues, cutscenes with weird camera angles and a lost narrative flow, throwing the player into countless sidequests with no real meaning for the plot. Graphics show no evolution from the previous versions. The new race, the Nameless, doesn’t even make visual sense according to the concept design of the other races. Everything is wrong. It feels like the game is pretending there’s something interesting to do, deceiving the player with more than it can actually deliver. This entire game feels like a fraud, created by someone who never understood what a fun RTS/RPG truly is or what the SpellForce franchise represents to gamers. Even with SpellForce: The Order of Dawn (2003) having all its flaws — many of them understandable for the time it was released and the engine used — it's still an extremely cohesive, coherent, and sensible game from every perspective, especially narrative and visual. This one is a fraud! For fans of the franchise who want to force themselves to consume everything just to understand the official direction the series took, this game might be worth it. For anyone unfamiliar with the franchise, ignore this game. I am completely disappointed. This is not SpellForce!

È un gioco di ruolo affascinante e molto completo, visto che devi sia difendere, trovare alleanze e creare strategie sia difensive, che offensive. È molto divertente tant'é che ho poi acquistato tutti i seguenti e spero che esca anche il 4. L'unico neo per me che sono impaziente di continuare il gioco é il tempo necessario per costruire e sviluppare la tua comunità e tutte le difese.
