![]() Quite honestly, there are WAY too much bugs and issues (LOAD SCREEN)with the game that really prevent a full enjoyment of the title. The character (LOAD SCREEN)creation is very rich, but provides NO explanation (LOAD SCREEN)as to what certain abilities mean or even how (LOAD SCREEN)they affect your character in any way shape or form. ![]() It's honestly in desperate (LOAD SCREEN)need of a complete overhaul, and should not have been launched in it's (LOAD SCREEN)current state. In case you can't figure out the other serious problem with this game. you will see the Load Screen so often and so long any real enjoyment of the story or plot gets completely lost in the dreary times you sit and stare at the same 3 screens and 5 tooltips over. In the first chapter I counted 17 LOADING PLEASE WAIT. ![]() I enjoyed the hex-based tactical gameplay in the King's Bounty games and bought Blackguards in a Steam sale as I enjoy CRPGs and thought this I enjoyed the hex-based tactical gameplay in the King's Bounty games and bought Blackguards in a Steam sale as I enjoy CRPGs and thought this would be more of the same. It uses the Dark Eye RPG rules in the game, the same as some previous CRPGs like Drakensang and the Arkania series. I've spent around 20 or 30 hours playing the game so far, and this review is based on my impressions while playing the first quarter or so of the game. Take a look at the video and the gallery attached to this article in order to get a better idea of how Blackguards 2 presents itself and plays out, but keep in mind the fact that changes can still be made before the 1.0 version of the title is out.Pros: - Storyline seems quite interesting. The experience looks good and the levels are bigger than before and with plenty more avenues for exploration, but the story, despite having an interesting tonality, still feels murky and relies on knowledge of the previous game a little too much.īlackguards 2 is not too different from the first experience created using the Dark Eye fantasy universe and it can offer some very cool tactical moments, but before launch the development team needs to deliver at least some new features that fans can fall in love with.
