Risen 3-titan lords review

Risen 3- titan lords





Is an open rpg game whit a lot of questing and a lot of adventures!
You start of as a captain in search for treasures; you start your adventure on a crab island whit the captain’s sister (your sister). As you venture on you stumble upon a temple, as you find a way into the temple and venture further, you stand in front a crystal portal. Through this portal a shadow lord appears and robes you of your soul. You die have a funereal and day month’s years who knows passes by. It’s when a shaman named bones finds your grave and brings you back to life, your journey begins!

This game is about building up an army so you can go in to war whit the underworld. While doing that you’re trying to get your soul back.
You will be visiting a lot of islands and some of these islands have a class spot to offer you. You have 3 classes to choose from 1.guardian 2. Voodoo pirate 3. Demon hunter
You can advance in these classes by finishing quests given by the class giver. Why choose a class? Because each class gives you the chance to use magic and magic is bad ass!? No but it would make things easier trough out the game ofc.
You can actually buy magic from some characters in the game but it will eventually run out and you will have to spend more gold. Gold you earn from completing quests.

The world is being taken by the shadows and devoured by darkness. So you will be facing a lot of enemies and a lot at the same time, sometimes! But luckily for us you won’t be fighting alone, because as you adventure trough these worlds you will pick up companions! I will compare this game a lot by the game I last wrote a review about “bound by flame” I mentioned that the characters joining you in battle were completely useless and die after five sec. The case is different here. Some character here dies faster than the others and some is completely hard to kill… butt they can still die ofc. If I were you I would go whit the shaman bones, he is a healing tank and is not easy to take out!
I wouldn’t venture into this would without anyone that would be too punishing!
The combo is simple, Block, doge and hit. You can choose from a musket to a sword and have a gun and ofc as I mentioned earlier you can buy magic whit your earned gold. The battles here can be difficult if the enemy decides to attack in group in about 10 monsters, that’s a frustrating battle.
In your adventure you will find a lot of loot, like clothes, rings, bracelets, clothes, food, gold and flowers. Food can be turned into healing potions and bracelets, rings that can give you points in shooting, lock picking, pocket picking and… silver tongue? The more points you have the less difficult you will be having picking chests.






The freaking quests! I would recommend this game to a person that is addicted to quests. Its quest after quest. Quests that lead to other quests and quests that has to be finished in another island. So you will be jumping around a lot when you’re close to the end. Some quests don’t even inform you what island you have to go to.

The dialogues! First of all the acting is not good but really close to bad but not bad so I care, you understand? I don’t care so much but sometimes it’s so bad my heart starts to sting and hurt. There is a ton of dialog in this game, some not important at all but you have to listen and continue asking question even if you don’t want to because in the end there is a quest… some quest aren’t even important either! And when you have to answer you have the option to be rude or nice, if your nice u gain a bit of humanity if your naughty you get closer to become a demon. So yes the ending in this game is either bad or good based on your decisions.

Let me make this clear, and for you who haven’t played this game don’t read, if you don’t want to. The ending is so freaking poor it makes you mad. You will go through a ton of quests and a ton of dialog and you will jump back and forth from island to island. And you will receive a disgustingly poor ending! This is the ending right here! If you’re good you will get a hug, if you’re bad you get no hug and you can’t board the chip whit the others! WHAT!?
When you complete something in this game you don’t feel rewarded at all? Completing a quest here doesn’t reward you or make you feel proud! It’s just “oh well what’s the next quest”? And then we get this ending to after plenty of hours put in to this game? O my god…




Anyway that aside. The environment is beautiful that is one of the reasons that kept me going. The worlds aren’t that big but they have beautiful natures. That is something risen 3 succeeded whit and bound by flame failed whit.

As I said if you like questing then play this game, anyone that likes adventures games can try this one out. I don’t hate the game I did enjoy it, it’s just the ending made me so angry.
Remember this is what I think about the game, if you feel like trying the game out then you should it is not a bad game!...but the ending…

You can find 2 play troughs of the game in my channel!

Bound by flame! Another crappy review!

Bound by flame






I sure know that I’m not good when it comes to writing any kind of review.
But I’m just going to stick to my opinion, due to the fact that I am not a professional reviewer but I have played tons of games to know what I think about them.

Bound by flame is a dark fantasy rpg game. You will play as Vulcan, you are a member of a mercenary group called the freeborn blades, your job is to eliminate the vawes of dead walkers (undead) Thats trying to invade camps everywhere and get rid of mankind.
Trough al this Vulcan has a demon infested into he’s brain.(and nothing more, he does nothing)

I’m just going to go straight forward here!
The plot isn’t strong at all, there is a lot of dialog, then I mean a lot of dialog, and yes u can skip them.

The environment is just as linear as the dialog and the maps are small. There really aren’t many details here just like dragon age 2. And you are force pretty much to run around the whole map more than once.

The only thing that makes thing easier and makes you pull through and not think so much about the environment, is the combat system. I like the combat system allot.  There are many choices during your battles: Heavy weapon, daggers, pyro, cross bow and traps. You can putt fire into your sword and shoot fire balls. The battle isn’t just jumping in and slashing your enemies, some situation makes you actually think which enemy would be better to get rid of first. You still need to think, and there is timing here to, if you doge your enemy attacks at the right moment you get a counter strike attack which is the more powerful attack.






In every battle u will have someone whit u of course, BUT they are totally useless in every way!
At least in dragon age you could level up your character and control them. Here they can’t be touched, they die after 2 seconds, they aren’t even good distractions! So you will be doing all the work, and a tip, someone that is actually  good having whit you more than anyone else is the witch remember that.
So when you’re entering a battle is only you! And the characters have pretty much zero background stories, definitely not enough to feel close to my own character or the other characters!
This game is pretty much mission and battle, wich is funny do to the fact that your stuck between schooises and able to form the ending of the game, so skipping the long and boring dialogs aren’t a good idea.

The leveling up system:

The leveling up system is easy to understand, there is heavy weapon, daggers and pyro, the good thing here is you will not get overpowered fast; it’s little at the time.
Which does make this game challenging and I respect that. (Even if I am a salty gamer)
The other thing about the character menu is that you can get better armor and better sword, then you can putt what you want into your weapons that makes it stronger or have any kind of resist (you have to choose from the options that is there, of course) So you are able to adjust to the environments and the battles.

There is also loot in this game, and it’s not hard to find, the loot contains items that you can use to build more traps, make healing, mana potions, and ofc you need gold. It’s easy to understand.

The bosses! The bosses are the only thing in this game that looks good! The only thing that would make me considers playing this game again! If you have the game on a higher difficulty then I believe you would be in for a real challenge!
I love the way they look and some bosses are hard even in easy mode!
And even if a character assist you into the fight, remember it doesn’t Mather one bit!



The game is okay, worth trying and not expensive, if they had really putt more time more thoughts into the game and more ideas, the game would be a really great one.
Now the game is just missions, combat and bosses.

One more thing about the demon that’s stuck in Vulcan: No you won’t get demon power he’s just talking when he feels like it. He does more work in the end of the game!
