I love action RPG games and diablo will always hold a special place in my heart but as I have played that game so many times that I know it’s supposedly random levels by heart I have longed for a game of the same standard to enjoy.
VICTOR VRAN REDDIT PLUS
Very casual RPG elements.(some may see this as a plus of course) The motorhead DLC had none of the character of the main game. EDIT 2 player couch gaming or 4 over the internetĮach area has challenges that ensure you will want to reply them (which you can do at any time from the map screen) Your character's progress and inventory carry between the DLC and core game.įull co-op support (including couch co-op). In the core game, there is a good sense of humour and well thought out characters.Ĭodes dotted about on the net for special weapons make a welcome break from the usual "buy this pack of better gear"Ĭontrols feel perfectly suited to the console.Īt any point, you can switch weapons (and thus play style) without any penalties. You can have a guitar as a weapon and make your foes headbang (that was just too crazy to not add to the pros!) At no point did I feel particularly overpowered or having to flee for my life. The monsters are well balanced to your level and gear. Also, all the tips and instructions can be found in the main menu under Codex at any time. Many features are unlocked at certain levels allowing you to become familiar with the game mechanics at a comfortable pace. This hardly surprising as it IS the same voice actor lol.Īll factors considered the game has a high design quality worthy of a triple-A title. The only issue I had was with Victor's voice (not the voice but his voice) as it is so spot on similar to the witcher that often I wanted to call Victor, Garrett. The in-game music is nice and appropriately relaxing where needed though I did find I had to turn down the Motorhead music (you know I really do not think I am the target audience for that DLC lol). The level designs are carefully thought out with cleverly done secrets that make use of Victor's wall jump ability. They even have some joke monsters (the dancing skeletons on their "invisible horses" for example always bring a smile to my face. The monsters are well created and there is a massive variety.

(that is a plus vote from the cat on this game too) No need to evict the cat from your lap or search for something flat to put the mouse on. It was a wonderful thing to lay back on my sofa, cat beside me and just play some Victor Vran.
VICTOR VRAN REDDIT PS4
Usually, when you take a game like this from mouse and keyboard to a controller you lose a certain something, you have to redesign UI’s but having played both the pc version and the ps4 version I can safely say that the control pad support felt spot on. Any items acquired in the DLC can, of course, be used in the core game (I am rather fond of the Demon Power Bombing run from the motorhead DLC) Your character persists regardless of what ever DLC you play and you can change from DLC to core game at any point on the main menu via "change world". It was not so hard as to make it impossible but it certainly is a challenge! The game does warn you that this is high level DLC for level 20 or higher (I was level 14)

While the core game seems very balanced to your level, I quickly discovered that Fractured worlds is a lot less forgiving. However, I did like that there was new weapons (guitars) and new overdrive skills to earn in this and that may be what makes me return to that DLC.įractured Worlds: This offers random dungeons (4 which change every day and one that is limitless). Motorhead DLC: I have not put much time into this as, to be honest, it was not as refined as the main game, the sense of humour seemed gone. The overkill edition comes with two DLC packs, one based on a rock band called Motorhead and the other, I have yet to have a chance to play. I look forward to uncovering more of his origin and connection to Victor as I play the main game. There is a disembodied character in the main game that goes by the apt name "The Voice" he is your constant companion and Victor (or Vicky to the voice) does not really seem too fussed or surprised about this.

So what sets this aside from the likes of Diablo or the many many clones out there? Well for a start you are not restricted to whatever class you picked when you created your character, hold a shotgun and you have shotgun moves, hold a hammer and you get hammer moves etc. Victor Vran is an action RPG, a genre that includes Diablo 3 (a game that has eaten way more hours of my life then I care to admit) Continuing my ps4 game reviews on Reddit is: Victor Vran: Overkill edition (ps4)
