Dark Messiah - Review @ Gamespot

by Kalia, 2006-10-27 05:16:03

Gamespot has posted a lukewarm review of Dark Messiah of Might & Magic. Scoring the game 6.7 ("fair") that is summed up nicely in the opening three or four sentences:

Dark Messiah wraps a dull story around repetitive combat. It's not a bad game, but its technical glitches really bring it down.

 

The Good: Good death animations.
The Bad: Numerous crashes and glitches get in the way; minimal character building and progression; most of the game's combat is unsatisfying; storyline is almost completely transparent right off the bat.
Contrasting viewpoints on the Gamespot site, however, are rendered in site user ratings which bring the game in at 9.4.
