P.s. To editor: I wrote the original ‘preview’, can you delete that one
and include this ‘review’ instead? Or just leave it at that, up
to you.
I have finished this game after more than a Month of playing through it (the
campaign) and it was non-stop addictive fun throughout, if you have played games
like the KB series you'll be at home with this game, but I had more fun with
this game! There are many people who have a very bad concept of this game
because they keep comparing it to its predecessor Disciples 2, I can't comment
on that as I haven't played it (yet) but comparing it to other turn-based games
I have played this game is tops. The game looks BEAUTIFUL with all settings
maxed and I didn't have any slowdowns, crashes, etc. Just some minimal non-game
breaking bugs which have mostly been addressed with the patch, the game ran
without a hitch on Windows 7. The story is interesting, and the combat is fun,
there are three factions: The empire, The legions of the damned & The elven
alliance, I must say they're all fun to play with but I specially loved the
elven one. The game is great value for money as it is LONG, it certainly took me
a while to finish it. If you have an open mind, not clouded by comparing it to
its predecessor & other games, you'll enjoy this game, I urge you to buy it
as it is a great game despite what other negative people say about it, just
don't believe the criticisms as they are blown out of proportion.
