nia333 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Ive been meaning to pick this up but i'm always kinda eh about it because from what ive heard its not that good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XNebula Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I enjoyed it the first time around, but if you decide to go for platinum it becomes a drag. It also looks and plays like an old game (its a port from the PC a couple of years ago). Easiest way to find out if you'll like it is to watch some gameplay videos on youtube.

Sharksfan24 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Story was ok but the gameplay is very boring, tedious and filled with glitches. Plus, the game crashed on me a couple of times whenever I was walking around or when the game is trying to save the game. Overall, this game is very outdated compared to all the other RPGs that are out on the market today. I wouldn't recommend Venetica to anyone.

Francofone Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 It's a rental, but a good rental. Graphics are blah, but overall it's pretty fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimalCarnage Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 For me I thought it was great. I don't expect the game to look amazing, and the game play was fun. But like said above, it does get a little boring after awhile. And if you go for the Plat, be prepared for one hell of a long grind. (3 playthroughs) If you can get it for 25$ or less IMO it's worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoodieninja86 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 (edited) No, it's one of the worst games I played all year. Story is boring and forgettable, game is glitchy graphically and it has some game breaking glitches. The fighting system is mediocre. FRAMERATE is downright awful! And a block button that is mapped on a skill hotbar. for $25 you can do much better, in fact you can get Resident Evil 5, or even Fallout New Vegas for cheaper or around the same price. RENT the game for trophy's. Don't buy it unless you for some weird reason really like it. Edited August 30, 2011 by Hoodieninja86 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BreakdownOfDeath Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 it has some gitches but still the game is pretty much fun! but its thought to get platin cuz i kind dont feel like playing it the sec time:p but still will do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XquietusX Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Just played the game and it is pretty bad its boring and tedious to do things. Sometimes they give you no direction at all. Combat is pretty basic and easy which makes combat feel very lame. Gameplay is the worst feature, getting stuck, glitching out for various reasons like at 1 point i couldnt talk to anyone or do anything. Dialong is often missing or they just outright say something completely different. I didnt mind it being a bad game til i finished chapter 2 then i really got nothing else fun out of it for the rest of the game. sending it back to gamefly after i finish this playthrough i dread the thought of playing through 2 more times.

toxia Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 just saw this brand new at gamestop for $10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoodieninja86 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 just saw this brand new at gamestop for $10 Honestly, I wouldn't even buy it for that price. There are better PSN games you cold get for 10 dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockandy79 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I actually really enjoyed it - even playing it more than once - i found it a relaxing change of pace from all the shooters ive been playing. Each to their own i guess though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCGamerin Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I like this game really. I played it on the PC, but my PC is to slow for it and I had long waitingtimes. I am so happy that it came for the PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobmarleypkr Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I loved it lol idk why but the art and story wasn't that bad, just a really glitchy transfer I think. I got the plat and enjoyed it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunlit Garden Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I couldn't get into it. I thought the controls were clunky and while I'm no means a graphics whore, they are pretty bad. And the voice acting is terrible. I managed to get to the beginning of Act 2 and then completely lost interest and sent it back to gamefly. Assassin's Creed 2 and Brotherhood are about 50 times better for an action game set in Renaissance Italy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) No, it's one of the worst games I played all year. Story is boring and forgettable, game is glitchy graphically and it has some game breaking glitches. The fighting system is mediocre. FRAMERATE is downright awful! And a block button that is mapped on a skill hotbar. for $25 you can do much better, in fact you can get Resident Evil 5, or even Fallout New Vegas for cheaper or around the same price. RENT the game for trophy's. Don't buy it unless you for some weird reason really like it. Definitely no game-breaking glitches there. But I will take your (given long ago) advice and rent this. EDIT: Now that I have played this, no, it's not that good. A lot of people complain about the graphics, but honestly, I think they're OK (obviously outdated, but kind of cute). I do not understand the problem with framerate, though. Also, the game freezes (it doesn't freeze the system, but it does freeze the game) during some conversations. Combat is a unfunny joke.

TearsInRain23 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 It is VERY flawed, but still a rather fun title for a playthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIDQ Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I played and platinumed this game a couple years ago. It lacks big budget production values, and it lacks polish in a lot of areas, but I actually enjoyed the game. The first time I went through the game, I had fun. It was definitely worth playing. Having to go through the game AGAIN to get other trophies was not as fun. The game definitely hurts in the replay value department. You probably won't want to pick it up again after you finish it. But overall, yeah, I recommend it to people who like open-ish questing RPGs as long as they can get it on the cheap. Just don't expect it to be Skyrim or anything. It's small in scope.

kraven_15 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Im starting my second playthrough soon... looking forward to fighting everyone instead of being friendly Like everyone said, its really glitchy at times, laggy at times, and graphically outdated. However, like many others, i found it pretty fun. Do i regret buying? No. Would i recommend it to fans of rpgs? Probably. Would i recommend it to high maintenance gamers? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
