But YMMV.Ĭhronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena. I'm not very patient, so I found it a pain in the arse.

You need to select fighting styles to match your opponent, and then time your swings appropriately. If you like to charge into battle, sword swinging. Personally, I found it clunky and annoying. There's definitely a fair bit of talking in The Witcher.Īnd I didn't enjoy the combat style of it anyway.Ĭombat in the Witcher isn't really like Mass Effect, but it's definitely not FPS style either. But I typically fast-forward through the talking when it's boring, non-essential and/or the voice acting isn't very good. Personally I don't really see much of a difference between Fallout and Mass Effect in that sense, but then I generally love RPGs, and don't mind all the dialogue. And the world is not a generic fantasy world, so it's pretty interesting. I want one with some levelling, some cool features, and a lot of places to physically explore (yet still be guided throughout the way, so I know what I'm meant to be doing)ĭefinitely available in the Witcher. I just don't want an RPG that's too complicated, especially in terms of spells and the like, and storyline. This all said, I didn't play Mass Effect for more than a few hours, and I didn't enjoy the combat style of it anyway.ĭoes that give you any sort of guide as to if The Witcher would be okay for me? :P I dunno, they were both just really fun :P The exploration of massive worlds, and the levelling systems. What was it that you liked about Fallout and Oblivion? Unfortunately, I haven't played the games you mentioned it was similar to, but thanks for that. I like the basic character customisation.

They were very complex and detailed games, I agree with that completely, but I feel like they were more on the FPS side of things than the typical RPG.

Personally, I wouldn't have described either Oblivion or Fallout 3 as 'simplified'. Audio glitches also rear their head once again, with some conversations feeling rather unnatural as a result.Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena. The dragon is quite an impressive beast as well, although the fire effects are poorly executed, which doesn’t make sense when it’s quite dazzling elsewhere. Visually, the oil-painting filter doesn’t feel as much of a disservice to the game’s aesthetic as it did in previous episodes, with some lucious backgrounds framing scenes well. It all looks quite promising towards the end and certainly gets its act together in the final section. There are moments – one in particular near the end of the episode – where the gameplay is better executed and things come together a bit more. There’s a lot of short bursts of walking, some generic button pressing, and a few moments which feel shoehorned in for the sake of having something to actually play, or to make sure you’re paying attention. Gameplay-wise, there’s nothing really unique here – it’s extremely dialogue heavy and there’s nothing as smart as some of the stuff Telltale are managing to do in their Tales from the Borderlands series. There’s often too much focus on one thing and not enough of the other, and Telltale just aren’t managing to weave the plot threads together in a streamlined way.

With a larger roster of playable characters than other Telltale games, it’s certainly in keeping with the TV show, which switches from one plot thread to another with ease, but here – at this point – they still feel a bit disconnected, even though your characters do belong to the same family.
