Title: Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes
Post by: The Sceneman on October 02, 2013, 05:33:59 PM
Free on XBL! (If you have gold).

Did anyone play this? Is it worth checking out?

It's a great game, but the load times in the PSN version are atrocious. I'm usually not that sensitive to performance issues, but it made me stop playing the game a few hours in.

sounds pretty good! Peeps at True Achievements were saying it was "too weird", which is a good sign.

I'm not very far into this (got it on Steam in some sale somewhere at some point) like level 8 or something maybe I think, and it's a pretty fun little strategy game. Though you can get totally hosed by just random luck of the draw on what comes up next.

And parts of the leveling system are a little obtuse, or at least were for me, especially when even early on you find quests against guys many levels above you, some of which aren't much harder than the main quests and others that are impossible with the level indication not being anywhere near as important as the units the foe uses. (Backing out and reconfiguring is probably an essential point of the setup but feels like I'm doing it wrong.)

The puzzle fights are kinda cool. Though some of those also can make your brain fall apart until you finally figure out the subtle change that creates the huge link you need or whatever.

the multiplayer is intense! Just teamed up with some random dude for a 2v2 match, was sooooooo close and exciting, we just pulled through with 5HP to spare. I forked out the 3 bucks for the extra multiplayer characters. Seemed a good deal since I got the game for free, and extra achievements.

That doesnt give you Gold either. Just lets you play online, no different than using a 48 hour code.
