When I read all the great review of this game, about the RPG elements, the fighting system I said to myself I have to have that game. So I bought it and played with it for 5 hours straight...not because I liked it, but because I wanted to know why everyone was liking it and not me.
Sure the graphics and the feel of the game is bang on. But somehow the fun is not there. Sure you have different powers and heroes but they are all the same. Having fire habilities is the same as having cold habilities except they don't look the same. Flying is great but it's so close to jumping it doesn't make any difference. The more you go on, the more all the powers are the same except deal more damages. So the combat strategy element is not that great. After 10 fights you begin to feel the redundance of the environnement and after 15 fights all the strategy are exausted. Just pick between the 3 you've developped and play t'ill the end. Sure there are cities, marina, park but replacing a trash can with a wodden case is all the same for me.
I loved the story and I loved the background of all the hero. But this is not enough.
I uninstalled the game for a year and then when I saw that a magazine gave it an award of the year a told myself that maybe I was in a bad mood when I tried it and that I should give it another shot (I did that with Galactic Civilisation and it changed my gamer life). I did it....and it changed nothing. After 4 hours of play I uninstalled it and gave it to one of my friend who in turn give it to one of is friend after 3 hours of play. So by the 4th guys it should go to the recycle bin in EB.
