For instance, generic dwarf-type folks are now part of the festivities, adding an overall look that's not too far removed from World Of Warcraft, with beards, booming voices and a stunted love for mountainous and snowy terrain. In short, it's as exaggerated and as clichéd as ever.
Meanwhile, just today Gamedaily reviewed Dark Messiah. It looks like the reviewer clearly liked the game but since he was experiencing several technical difficulties (I wonder, did he apply any of the patches?), here’s his final verdict:
Dark Messiah creates a fantastic fantasy-laden frolic. Sadly, the steep system requirements and associated glitches will only allow those with high end rigs to thoroughly enjoy it, thus detracting from this mighty and magical experience.
The game gets a decent score 8 out of 10. Up to date the Gamerankings database has listed 38 media outlets on Dark Messiah, with an average score of 75% while Metacritic's average score is 73% from 34 reviews. Unfortunately Dark Messiah did not met the very high expectations put on it, mostly due to the poor game stability on some systems and several nasty bugs, but it still remains a good game to give a try, especially for a Might and Magic series fan. And while we are talking, you can help the Dark Messiah and the whole Might and Magic cause, participating in the Woodoo Extreme organized poll for the Game of the Year title.
