Um, cool? :/

Always nice to see another entry in the King's Bounty series, although since the only version seems to require Steam I'll be waiting until it drops into the sub $10 range before buying.

Definitely looks cool. I'm a big fan of King's Bounty games.

Hope it comes to GOG.com soon, as I don't really use Steam :)

I picked it up a while back when it dropped into the sub-$10 range I was waiting for. I didn't run into any gamebreaking bugs, but there are still a lot of minor bugs present that are quite noticeable. Some of the spells are prone to causing the game to crash when used (fortunately those spells are rather useless), and there are plenty of instances of dialogue trees not working right. The most noticeable issues are the poor (or sometimes even missing) translations; some skill or spell descriptions are just nonsensical, and occasionally you'll just be greeted with a bit of Russian. The main issue I had with the game, though, is that it just dragged on for too long. KB:LT and KB:AP were both a good length- by the time they wrapped up I felt just about ready for it. Warriors of the North gets to that point, then drags on for another 10 hours. And it isn't introducing visually new areas or new enemy army compositions at that point, it's just rehashing things you've already seen and are tired of. Plus the final battle sequence was just stupidly annoying, particularly the final boss. That's not to say that he was tough (he was a pushover), but the goddamn "ally" they saddle you with seems to do everything possible to get in the way and slow down the battle; I actually had to spend half my spellcasting turns teleporting his troops out of my way. Very poor design there.

Overall it's not a bad game and I felt I got my $10 worth, but I don't think I'll be revisiting it like I have The Legend and Armored Princess.
