The long awaited Champions of Norath is here. Well, is it better than BG2?? Read onto my review of Champions of Norath.
Graphics:
The graphics are very good. The blood looks realistic and the character models are nicely done too. The background graphics is great! The enviroments and objects on the ground looks realistic. But, there at intense battles, the framerate drops a little. Thus making the game a little slower.
Sound:
The music is really great! Much better than BG2. The clanks of the swords and arrows shooting sounds realistic. But not the voice acting. The voice acting is not nicely done. Sometimes, the characters sounds really lame.
Gameplay:
The gameplay is just average in this game. Its difficult to aim a bow, and worst of all there you have to buy arrows for a very HIGH price. Okay, buying arrows sounds realistic, but they are sold at a very high price. If you are a ranger, and at the beginning of your character it is so expensive to buy arrows. The hack n slash is okay, but because of framerate drops, it sometimes does not hit the enemy. The only thing which impress me in the gameplay department is the skills in Champions of Norath. There are a number of skills, each character have different skills and all of them looks great. Overall, the gameplay is dissapointing though.
bUy It oR ReNT iT??
Well, Champions of Norath is longer than BG2. But because of the framerate drops and the gameplay, I would say just rent this game. I hope this review will help anybody out there making up their mind to whereter anot to buy Chapions of Norath.
