Venetica - Review Flood #3

Time to bring you up-to-date with the latest German Venetica reviews:

• Stevinho says 82% and explains it in a 25:30 min. video
• Game-TV has video with a short review. It doesn't work in my browser.
• Print mag PC Games calls Venetica "a successful RPG debut" and gives 79% due to technical issues. "Accessible controls, a (mostly) beautifully designed game world, fast fights and a strong heroine [...]" 
• GameCity.ch's rating is 81%. "The game's atmosphere is utterly brilliant [...]"
• SpieleTipps criticises: "Even though Venetica is of course an appealing RPG, it's so full of flaws [...] which in the large scheme of things lower the fun quite a bit." (free translation) - 73%
• GameCaptain - 80%; "straightforward, action oriented gameplay" 
• Spieletester.com thinks it's a mixed effort. Technical issues, problematic controls, ugly graphics vs. fresh setting, some cool scenarios, very good audio, good story, nice quests. - 72%
• Austrian print mag Gamers.at say "Death has never been so much fun!" - 82%
• The always highly critical 4Players is surprisingly generous: 80%. "Nevertheless genre fans shouldn't miss out on the journey to Venice, altogether [the player] is entertained [...] on a good niveau." 4Players always tests unpatched versions.
• Yiya.de, the most reliable source for reviews on niche games, gives Venetica a "B", downgraded from a B+ for you know what. "[...] something special and clearly the better Fable."

Deck 13 announced in the official forum that they're working on a 2nd patch.
