This IS a good game, if you take the time to realise that the beauty isn't the stunning graphics, the flawless translation, or the ultra-realistic physics engine . . . it's almost like playing Thief for the first time, without reading any instructions. That's as close as I can come to a description of a game that is beautiful-without all the trappings that sell todays games.
I...I just...is this game REALLY a good game? I look at the graphics and cringe at the voice-acting I'm hearing watching this, but...people seem to think highly of it...Is that just their exaggerations? Or do I need to struggle past the major faults in this game?
I just want to be certain, because I'm considering buying it.
Great video quality, though, thank you very much! :)
@XZombieGritsX The graphics and some of the VA(some characters sound good) are quite bad. But for its time it was made it is not THAT bad ;)
I personally enjoy the game for what it is, and all I wish they would do is fix the translation ;/
This game is quite hard to recommend because it is a very very unique game. But if you can find it for around 5/10 pounds(can be even less on ebay) its worth a shot!
It's an amazing game. Not good, not great, but one of the most creative, most emotional, most complex games made. However, it's also very flawed. The graphics haven't aged well at all and the translation is insufferably bad at times.
I played the Russian version, and it's the best case for video games as art I could possibly make. It's a damn shame its genius (I don't use that term lightly!) is held back by the graphics and translation.
What was intended to be cryptic becomes almost impenetrable when translated into English. Its like trying to make sense of a novel that has been run through babel-fish a few dozen times.
I bought this game but gave up on it, the translation is brutal. It seems like an awesome game though. I heard the community was fixing the grammar but I think they gave up.
This is so weird... I feel like I'm watching someone's dream. Everything's connected, nothing makes sense but there's a secret reason for everything. It's all symbolism and ways nobody talks or acts in reality. It's giving me a headache...
I still have this game installed, waiting for me to finish it. Unfriendly gameplay always pushes me back while that amazing town and atmospehere always call me back :D
the voice actor is funny sounding he goes chimeras but its pronounced kymera. and yes i am a total nerd for pointing this out but i just though it was funy lol
@Sawgirl2 Its a hard game mate watch what I do and try to take notice of the little things I do(how I kill the robbers and stuff) and always make more then one save at a time! And lastly yes I have this game I got it when it was new out at GAME in the UK for 15 pounds if I recall ;D
Too bad the voicing is so frustrating. The Haruspicus is sounding like an old pirat, and Clara is like a witch(her voice is more cunning). I'm playing the original game in russian(I know russian language), and voices there are great.
Yea his story is a little hard at the start. If this is your first time playing the batchelor is the best to play as because he gets a gun on the first day and he gets a full respect bar :)
Just started playing the game as Haruspicus too. Take one step out the door and suddenly large men want to pummel my hurt, hungry, exhausted self! Feels a bit overwhelming, but I'm enjoying it. Loving the atmosphere to the game.
I hope to get it in a few weeks and I will get round to playing the game and doing a few gameplay vids(Maybe a walkthrough) in the near future. thanks for the comments :)
Yeah, the Haduspicus is one hell of fighting. You should have started with Bachelor, that way it would be much easier to become familiar with the game and its gameplay.
hey...its me again...ive played this game to the day 2...be careful...when you have talked to the infected woman...go out of the house so fast as u can

It's hard to pasas the game over without a walkthrough, especially at the start, when you are not very used to it's features.
But still, it's a masterpice. I enjoy it very much!

It also fucked up my computer on the options page for some reason.

It's a very fun suspense and alternative horror game. Don't let the aged graphics and Englishsky deter you from trying it.
The game is very artistic and philosophical; it reminds me of a Brecht play. I enjoyed the quotations the most.
The soundtrack is really nice, too.
