By this phrase can be fairly fully judge the humor Penny Arcade
We are very hopeful that a long and awkward «On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness» - subtitled only the first part of Penny Arcade Adventures. But no - it turns out, it will haunt us for all the episodes.
OtRSPoP, recall - the typical console RPG, which did not the Japanese and Americans. And not just, and Jerry Holkins and Mike Krahulik - not just gamers, but also the author of the popular Web comic Penny Arcade. So, in games understand and know how to write and draw. That's composed game follows the adventures of his characters - Gabe and Tycho. And then another.
Play in the second episode of Penny Arcade Adventures, missed the first, should not be - after all, a direct sequel. In fact, the changes in the second episode is almost none. Even imagine, facial expressions of the protagonists are not increased. Is that his short mini-games, which should participate in every time spetsatake character updated. Therefore, the reduction in price from $ 20 to 15 is more than justified.
The storyline this time is extremely clear from the beginning to the end and very very simple - it does not feel that notes of absurdity that gave the first part of the lion's share of charm. Descriptions and dialogues are also passed - they now rely more on sheer bad language (yes, it has become even more). Thinner needed, Mr. Holkins. Elegant.
But without the humor Penny Arcade Adventures is transformed into a rather conventional console RPG for a dozen hours with a good combat system a la Active Time Battle, lack rendomnyh battles and very much gentler level of complexity. And the abundance of swearing, and bawdry raschlenenki though the game highlights from the total mass of fresh JRPG, but it does not make it anything like outstanding. By the third episode of the authors would be good to significantly rework nearly every aspect of it - because the enthusiasm that we met Penny Arcade's debut in the field igrodelov, with the second issue is strongly pougas.
Move a previously created character - a holy cause. Learn lady in a pink bowler hat from a review of the first episode?
The authors are not limited to the threats: a battle not uncommon fountains of blood and explosions raschlenenkoy
