Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
129 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
From the beautifully animated, albeit rare hand-drawn cutscenes, conversations, banter, to the side lore found in books and documents, the writers have made sure each line of dialogue had its own distinct flair.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
122 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The Pyramids open up to endless exploration possibilities: throw them to use as beacons and cross gaps, put them into someone’s inventory with pickpocketing to access forbidden areas, use them to ambush your enemies, or as a retreat point if combat goes wrong.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
108 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
These are just a couple of the many interactions you can use in combat to gain an advantage.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
TLDR: A good and long grandiose CRPG adventure with very fun co-op (and very cheap on sale too!) Introduction:
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
25 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
In addition to some gameplay improvements, such as full voice acting for all dialogue and a crafting menu that lets you learn recipes and execute them later with a single click, the game’s balance has also been adjusted.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
25 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is excellent (RIP Kirill Pokrovsky) and the graphics have aged well, relatively speaking.
