Humanity has risen!
Arcane
Well Jeff sure likes to make big huge ruins full of tedious combat. It got a bit much after a while.
A similar game to the first 2 Fallouts, except that the ratio of socializing/city quests to dungeon crawling is akin to that of Fallout 3 instead.
And of course this is a game with the Fire Emblem syndrome, meaning that one has to reload after any faux pas involving the death of a creation.
All in all I still love these games a lot, so much originality, good atmosphere, good descriptions whenever entering a new area. A bit cheesy but not that much.
Anyhow I went with the Shapers and did their deed, which got me their best ending.
The challenge got pretty damn ridiculous at some point, especially when reaper turrets where involved, and Sholai warriors with swords shooting multiple rays of electricity at the same time. But I still love that I was often able to find creative ways to overcome the obstacles I found in the dungeons. I guess it's a huge part of the appeal.
I mainly want to know, does it get better as far as the ratio of socializing/dungeoneering goes?
I bought the Geneforge saga and started 2. Already I feel like I'm going to like it more, it seems a bit better written and better paced, and I hope there's more emphasis on stuff other than big ruins.
Apparently 3 is a total turd?
And I guess there is no way to magnify the text or screen? Because it seems that especially with the later games everything got so super tiny.
The first one had reasonably sized Arial, don't know why he decided to change that.
