Victor Vran Review – Entertaining, But Not Ground Breaking

It was quite a while since I had last played Victor Vran, but I picked it up again to see how Haemimont has improved their now fully released game. The very first thing I noticed was that Victor was now voiced by Doug Cockle, who is most known for his work as Geralt of Rivia from The Witcher series. The next thing I noticed was that the gameplay had no noticeable difference.

In fact, the game was almost completely unchanged, and the only  differences were the inclusion of voice, story, and small additions such as Transmutation—combining up to three items to get another, and hopefully better, item. Essentially Victor Vran takes quite a lot from the bigger predecessors of Action-RPG’s, from the dark and creepy atmospheres of Diablo to the crazy amount of loot from Torchlight. The Transmutation system and even Victor himself is vaguely reminiscent of The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing. In fact there’s a secondary outfit that looks almost identical to the one Van Helsing wears. Well … the hat looks kinda similar. [...]

Score: 7/10 - Very Good

Summary : It's a good romp run through ruins and wreaking havoc with demon powers, but does not provide much more substance than that.
