biller88 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I'll give this one a 5. There were a couple parts on Legendary that were a little dicey and took me 4 or 5 runs but overall the hardest part was running 3 playthroughs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NovaSD Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I'd have to settle for a 4, three playthroughs is required but the game is pretty short if you rush through it. Farin, the Dwarf, makes the game extremely easy. Hes such an overpowered character thanks to explosive shot, and the instant warcry resurrection. I pretty much plowed through the game after I switched to him from my Lore-master. 3-4 shotting the last boss with that skill is laughable.

Project Nemesis Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I gave it a 5. Farin exploit aside, it can get a little challenging in a couple areas on Legendary difficulty. One main difference on the harder difficulties is that if you get hit by a sapper (exploding orcs) one time it's instant death, which makes the seige on Nordinbad fairly challenging when they're bomb-rushing the door (pun intended).

DMCV Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I'd give it a 4. Some areas are challenging, the mentioned above Gate area and defending the two dwarves in the mines but apart from that its okay. 3 playthroughs sounds like a lot, but i enjoyed this platinum.

reize Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 id give it a 3, it would be a 2 if not for the online trophy. Personally, having 2 players on Local Co-op using Farin and Andriel makes things incredibly easy with War Cry Revive and Sanctuary Heal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HipHopGodd Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I'd give it a 5 normally because it's pretty easy. The only ones that are giving me problems are the "bullseye" headshot trophy (Damn game has no kind of detection whatsoever) and the "Heroic" mode trophy. The game seems to have completely skipped Heroic mode after I completed Normal and it put me on Legendary. So here I sit with the trophies for Normal and Legendary and if I want the Trophy for Heroic I have to start from scratch and lose everything. Makes me not even want to play the game again because I'm not sure if there will be another glitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmylad Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 gave it a 5, took longer than it really should of done. not so much the 3 playthroughs. my opinion is this is a daunting task if playing solo. the AI of your companions can be very dim at times making the end of mount gundabad and the defence of nordinbad very difficult on legendary difficulty. i recommend doing it in co-op. finally got my 59th plat after 4 days of play.

mikem192 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 gave it a 5, easy game....trophies popped up all the time, online one was annoying but easily done! i liked the game, bit tedious playing it 3 times over but last run through didnt take long, just missed all the secrets and legged it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKopetzky Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Gave this game a 3 - nothing in this game is really difficult with the help of Farin's crossbow, didn't encounter any glitches or bugs. Fun game and very Tolkienesque, although the 3 main characters are forgettable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Himynameisaaron Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 i gave it a 4 because with explosive bolts as the champion i could hit over 200,000 and 1 hit nearly anything on legendary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron-A-Palooza Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 are the bugs as bad as everyone is saying? I didn't buy skyrim because of that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilGalad Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 3 for me. Surprisingly fun, and the game got easier on the higher difficulty levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattigummi Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Got the plat yesterday. Not hard, gave it a 4. Legendary difficulty would be considered hard but Farin's Explosive shot makes it so easy and cooldown is really fast. I defeated Aganduar in less than a minutes without needing to heal at all. Strength of our Alliance can be a pain though. To get 2 other boosters and to press at the exactly same time took its time. Fun game, but could have been much much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottq Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I gave it a 5. Explosive Bolt is as overpowered as they say, so nothing is really hard except a few Sapper sections that are really just annoying. I enjoyed the first 2 playthroughs and the trophies did a good job of getting you to try different characters and different things. That 3rd playthrough is annoying, but by that time I was so leveled I finished the entire playthrough in only 2 easy sittings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
factor747 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I got my platinum yesterday. This game is very very fun, the most trohpies are very easy to get, but I had to make a piggyback because the game glitched my heroic playthrought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnarchyintheUK Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 The story itself really isn't that hard with the 1st playthrough actually being the hardest and the final one on legendary being ridiculously easy once you've fully leveled up. I managed to get through it glitch free but had massive trouble getting Strength Of Our Alliance spending over 5 hours and not getting it. Turns out getting 2 other human players and surrounding an enemy with a countdown to attack isn't the best way. Instead I randomly joined a game to find one guy playing alone in a challenge and within 2 waves I had it even though the dwarf was an NPC. Checked my stats afterwards and that was the first group kill my character had been credited for, I also checked the stats on a second controller my friend used when we played through and he had done 5 group kills. It just doesn't make sense. Overall 5/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leandrinh Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 4. Not a hard one, after getting used to the controls the 2 other playthroughs are easy and can be done as speed run ones. And if you use the glitch to get infinite money, it also helps, since you can buy immediately the best itens for you and your companions. But, if you play only as the Dwarf, this game would be a 3, since it gets ridiculously easy with its explosive shot, very unbalanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reznor87 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I'd give it a 4, as mentioned by everyone else explosive bolt does make the game ridiculously easy and you can just speed through your last run. The hardest part was stopping my AI team mates from being blown up by sappers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangeInStereo Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Gave it a 5. All the trophies are really easy but I just had terribly luck with the game, game glitched for me so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maniezcki Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I gave it 4. Really easy platinum. The only thing that I did not like was that the game were crashing at the forest level.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furious Gargoyle Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Voted a 3. Granted, I did use Farin the Dwarf which broke the difficulty of the game, but killing the final boss in two hits was just crazy. It got easier the higher the difficulty as you levelled up. They only tough bit was the seige of Nordinbad trying to stop the armoured trolls from charging to the door on the first playthrough. All in all, I had a lot of fun with that game. I didn't experience any of the glitches mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerPyx Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I'm giving it a 4/10 because of the "Strenght of Our Alliance" trophy. Slaying an enemy together with 2 other players is a lot of luck and took me several hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron-A-Palooza Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I would rate it a 4 out of 10. Only actual part that was a bit tough was the part when the trolls are heading for the inner gate while defending the dwarf fortress. For some reason they would just sprint there and I could not hold aggro on them. Not a bad game either! Combat was a bit boring but besides that FUN!

StealthBlade98 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I rated it a 3. I'm on my second playthrough and i'm not seeing a big difference from the heroic difficulty other than the sappers which are OP as hell. I will concur with the above during the siege of nordinbad where the 2 trolls section was a pain in the butt cause even on normal i failed that part 15 times it seems before I finally got it from a game glitch where if you're far away from the trolls they don't see to attack the door for some reason and you can snipe them away with bows/crossbows. Just make sure you beat one before doing so. I literally also got 80% trophy completion just playing the game my first runthrough and I wasn't trying at all to get them. Just randomly popped up so yea plat is easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
