AMID EVIL: WARRIOR EDITION

This game is definitely a must buy alongside DUSK...The devs actually give a damn, and do a damn good job as well; Think hexen or quake (mostly hexen) but done now instead of 20 years ago...Do yourself a favor and spend the money, I bought mine on steam, but come payday.....these are all mine on GoG as well :D

I'm just stunned by Amid Evil, can't stop playing since I got it. We're talking old-school fast FPS, only mixed with a very, very original lore which has its own identity. Everything here smells passion. I can't really find words to qualify the medieval-dark fantasy-sci-fi-lovecraft-quakeish universe this game will put you in, but it works and lives, with a lot of little gameplay details making me say "wow" every two minutes when I explore and discover every corner of this fantastic game. To be honest I'm kind of a very selective gamer and have absolutely nothing negative to say about Amid Evil. Weapons : All new sensations. It's not like this magic wand's a rifle, that odd stuff's a railgun etc, no. There's a real work to create coherent magic weapons with their own particularities that bring fresh air to FPS genre. You will love to use each every one of them. Mobs : They're fast. They're powerful. They're full of surprise. They come from the best fantasy books you've read. Even easy mode's not that easy. Bosses are giants and classy, sometimes feel like good old Dark Souls to fight them, only here, you'll be pleased. General Gameplay : circle shooting, just add very large arenas and levels, a finger of cool powers like flying or invisibility, and platform sequences that are coherent, easy to master and no, the game doesn't make them its very heart (hello Doom Eternal you f***). Exploration is pleasant, there are not too much secrets that would create frustration. You are here to fight. Universe : Like I said. I have never seen this in a FPS before. Amid Evil's been influenced by a lot of other works and yet has it's own identity. The world is magnificent and grandiose, somewhere between classical mythology and all the fantasy stuff we've been eating for years, only beyond all of that, because it has it's own purpose. I don't know, I just love it okay ? This is going to stay on my computer. It's a great game, just buy it. I'm waiting for a 2.

Honestly, I can't figure out a bad thing to say about this game. Combat is great, the level design is visually stunning, atmospheric, and interesting. Weapons are useful (even the week ones, even the starting melee weapon is actually pretty good for cutting down weak opponents). Perhaps the only aspect of the game that is less than ideal is the enemy variety. Overall, I really like this game and can't recommend it enough.
