Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

Engaging story about eternal themes, told in a very unconventional setting. Great characters, a fascinating world, and some genuinely tough choices.

Banishers cuenta con una historia princiapal de muy buena calidad, una pareja que te queda en el recuerdo y un pueblo marcado por una gran tragedia, sin embargo he de decir que no todo ha sido perfecto. Como he dicho el juego cuenta con una buena trama, quizás si me hubiera centrado únicamente en ella hubiese disfrutado mucho más el juego. Su mundo abierto me ha resultado caótico y poco intuitivo, con un abuso de la verticalidad que no se siente orgánico, haciendo la exploración liosa y obligando a fijarse demasiado en los detalles de un mapa, que por momentos entorpecía más la búsqueda del objetivo. Su combate, aunque efectivo, se vuelve repetitivo sumándose farmeo para mejorar equipo, que si bien es gratificante, una vez tienes la built que quieres ya no miras más para ello. En lo relativo a secundarias hay algunas buenas y otras más simples, pero todas ellas con cuidado en la escritura, sin llegar, en mi opinión, a la calidad de la historia principal. En general Banishers tiene algo que contar, pero su gameplay puede ser un lastre una vez superada la mitad de juego, si hubiesen condesado más la experiencia habría quedado perfecto, pero desafortunadamente optaron por el mundo abierto, aun así lo recomiendo por ser una obra genuina hecha con cariño.

jogo até que bom.

Echt geile Story, nur irgendwann halten die Gegner zu viel aus, was dazu führt das man gerade so die erste rund schafft nach 5 versuchen. Dann geht man in Runde 2 mit Bosskampf ohne Heilung. Und das auf Normal. Da hilft nur schwierigkeit runter. Auf geschichte kommt man fast ohne kratzer durch die 2 Runden

Пролог немного смутил, но впоследствии игра затянула. Сильно напоминает God of war. Сильно рекомендую!)

I was unsure at first, but the graphics are great, so I pushed through. So happy I did because the story and adventures are real good. I am about 10 hours, and I am looking forward to what the rest of the game has in store.

Не блокбастер, но просто хорошая игра с историей и не плохими побочными заданиями.

Overall (7/10): Great game, not exceptional, but I consider it a money and time (70h) well spent. Gameplay (5/10): Not great, not terrible. Not enough wiggleroom to experiment with builds, a lot of the mechanics are confusing (no idea what affects the damage the enemies receive). The enemy variety is good enough, the combat is good enough. There are no truly annoying things about it, but it does get kinda samey pretty fast. Still, after 70h I still didn't consider it boring. Story (7/10) and Lore (8/10): The story is great, but its true potential lies in the lore. One without the other in this case is pointless. You start with nothing, you don't know what you should care about, but slowly (and I mean very slowly) you start getting the picture of what is going on and why and who and so on. In the end you have a clear picture of the whole thing and it is very satisfying. Characters/attachment (8/10): With 70h to complete all quests and exploration, you get attached to it. The whole thing is sprinkled with dialogues and banter, so the characters get built really well. Atmosphere/music/graphiics (7/10): It is really good, but not exceptional. Works great with the rest of the game, while the game lasts, but I don't think it will stick with me for too long. Final thoughts: I see potential for a replay. The decisions you get to make, there is a clear distinction with 2 or 3 paths, I can imagine that they will affect quite a bit of stuff. The story is linear but a lot of details will change depending on the choices. Will I replay it?Not likely. 70h is a lot of time, better spent exploring new things. Recommendation: If you want more of something like Banishers - try Hell is Us. Another lore-heavy game with much darker and deeper atmosphere, greater stakes and similar level of gameplay. (sure, the setting is way different, but I got a lot of similar feelings playing this).
