Tags: HarbingerArmchair Empire has done up their review of Harbinger, calling it shallow and rating it a 5.9/10. Here's part they did like:
Easily the very best feature in the game, and one I hope that other developers take note of, is the EZ Stash in Harbinger. Basically it acts as a means to help combat having a cluttered inventory while traveling through a dungeon. When it comes to PC Action RPGs it doesn?t take long to fill the inventory right up with all manner of enchanted weapons, armor, and the like. To help deal with this, Harbinger uses something called the EZ Stash. They?re containers placed within the dungeon where you can stash excess items you?ve collected. The beauty of it all is that there is also an EZ Stash at home base where you can pick up the items later either to equip them or sell them to Oda. It let?s the player have their cake and eat it too tucking treasure away for later without being over burdened, instead of sadly having to give up a potentially helpful item that they don?t have room for at the time.
I tend to agree this was a nice idea. Instead of teleporting back to town like you did in Diablo, Darkstone, etc., you can just send your items back to town that you might want to sell when you get there. Of course, you need to hunt down the EZ-Stash outlets on the maps, assuming there even is one.
