Vindictus

I mostly played this game when I was a teen and back then was when it was REALLY good and very immersive. The armor in the game was attractive but also made sense for the characters. Every dungeon took effort and skill, you actually had time to LEARN the character you were playing and it made it even more fun to play with people(struggle together, you know) and even side questing was fun to a degree because it gave you a chance to get to know the charming NPCs in the game and world you're part of. This game has gone through quite a drastic change since the last I played it. I tried to keep an open mind and play it, but it was a struggle. There are so many currencies in the game now that it's overwhelming, the outfits/costumes I see most people wear are full gooner which ruins immersion and makes me feel a little uncomfortable. I love women and there's nothing wrong with a little sexy, but they sell outfits that are basically string and even make boobs and butt disproportionately bigger. The game I grew up with didn't have that and it didn't need it, so seeing that was pretty jarring for me. They have a lot of characters to pick from now though it feels like they're running out of …

Absolute crap, opened the game about 20 times <--- thats how many times the POS crashed on me, tampered with settings, after 15 minutes of trying, finally got the game to load tutorial but crashed shortly after, if there was a -* review option I would give it in a heartbeat, 0/10 don't waste your time unless your time isn't valuable.

Wanted to give this game a try in spite of the negative reviews, but called it quits only 30 minutes in. Game didn't even launch the first time & just froze up, second time it launched in windowed mode. Tried switching to full screen mode but that didn't help much as is still looked like windowed mode & it also desynced the buttons on screen from where they actually were, meaning I had to guess where to click. Closed the game out & launched a third time, this time is was full screen (yay...) Character creation is rather dull, you choose an existing character & slightly alter their appearance with a SMALL selection of hairstyles, some colors for their eyes & hair, some skin tones, & a few sliders for their body shape (some of which you can't even slide all the way to the left or right). Combat is meh, I chose the archer girl & made it through the tutorial by smacking the enemies with her hands. Once I got to the hub area I ALT+TAB'd & said "No thanks"

It's a very fun game with great combat and reasonable story. Their big downfall is they wound themselves around the finances of selling booby outfits for extreme prices. Noone wants to pay real world prices for virtual outfits except for a small percentage of the population and so the game increasingly revolves around fan pleasing those that are willing. Sell your outfits for a reasonable price so you make a greater number of people happy. You'll sell more outfits and have more players.

Man i don't remember playing 20 hrs of this game, tbh, but i do remember there were a lot of T I T S, that's a plus.

as a 37 YO i can say that the game looks good for its time and the combat it pretty fun though the little of it i have played so far but to be fair i really looks like it was meant for people who are middle aged gamers like myself and never really adapted to the times. i may have been born in the late 80s but i still love to see progress in the changing times. i would love to see this game get an entire UE over hall at some point because even though its a fun time killer its not something i can really blow all my time into when i have almost 300 games in my library and almost all of them are more updated to modern times. the only6 ones that aren't are a few newer indie titles that i dont really play much anyways cause they still look pretty dated regardless and its hard to get into them lol. I really cant wait for Defying Fate to come out. really looking forward to it :)
