Just joking (sort of), but dang, this game is super impressive to me thus far.
I have a little experience playing it on an old laptop a year or two ago, but I didn't get terribly far before becoming distracted with a shiny, new laptop and moving on to different games. Since the games were part of a bundle, I bought them for my desktop PC and have installed them once again to check them out further. Specifically, M&M VI, although I still want to check out the others eventually, too.
Anyway, the party creation to me is a thing of beauty. It's just awesome. Sure, there's only 6 classes, but creating a balanced party that you are happy with is just so fun. Determining which starting skills to give your characters along with their stats instantly gives you a deep level of customization right off the bat.
Next, the inventory, skill page, stats page, etc., all very clean and nice and easy to navigate.
The writing. Wow. It's really good, actually. I've only really read the note that is in your inventory at the start of the game and a few villager dialogues, but it is great so far. The note especially was really well-written and professional.
Then you enter the actual game, and my god, the combat system is literally the best combat system I think I've ever played in a game. Bold statement, I know, but the combination of first-person view, ability to switch between real-time and turn-based, and just the feel of fighting hordes of goblins in turn-based first-person just does it for me. It's certainly my favorite first-person combat that I can ever recall, that's for sure.
So while I'm half-joking that it's the greatest game ever made, it's very impressive to me.
So tell me, what are your spoiler-free experiences with M&M VI? Do you also hold it in high regard or was it more forgettable for you?
