There is a curious effect: the elements of others, seems the same. "Heroes of Might and Magic", even though the view from behind the shoulder. It's the whole knocks: a close-range too much, that game universe is empty, lifeless and dead. Some activity is very primitive properties, is found only in the line of fire, which outlines the areas of permanent deployment of monsters. Unfortunately, in addition innovations not enough to swear by. Life in the world increased, the player still gets the impression that he is an ant crawling under a canopy of giant trees to obscure targets.

It's a shame that the "pumping" the rest of the team was not much time or money.
