Plus Ultra: Legado

I played just a little but alerady can say what on my taste is very nice game! Comic-like style together with history setting and platforming genre make in mix very interesting game. Worth every cent

Juegazo. Llevaba en mi lista de deseados más de un año esperando al lanzamiento. Ya me lo he pasado y vale el precio que tiene 100%. No es el metroidvania más complicado (lo cuál es bueno ya que un objetivo del juego es luchar contra la Leyenda Negra y que no sea muy difícil permite avanzar relativamente rápido) y añade nuevas mecánicas. Las actualizaciones posteriores al lanzamiento han dejado el juego completamente pulido y sin problemas de rendimiento y sin bugs. La banda sonora de la Cordillera hace que se me erice la piel, 10/10. El Diario te permite indagar mucho en la historia de los personajes, y la ambientación e historia del juego es brutal. La mentira que desmonta es el del g3n0c1d10. Ya seas negrolegendario (crees que los españoles solo hicieron el mal y llevaron decadencia a América), hispanista (eres consciente de que los hispanos vivimos una mentira contada por los anglos y defiendes la verdad de la Conquista, lo bueno y lo malo) o simplemente te gusta la historia; te recomiendo que pruebes el juego. Espero que estos desarrolladores y otros estudios se animen a hacer más juegos (no importa el tipo) que sigan dando batalla y desmontando las mentiras de la Leyenda Negra.

I can not recommend this game enough. I must first start by saying that I am not personally a fan of the [i]metroidvania[/i] genre. I've tried a few, but I just came to realize they really aren't for me. Because of this, I was doubting on whether or not to play this game, yet, because of the amount of friends who insisted I should play it, I decided to give it a try. And so, approximately 21 hours later, after finishing the game, I can't for the life of me understand how this game isn't talked about more. From the second I started playing, I found myself immediately hooked, and could not stop playing until I had finished all of the game and completed all of the achievements. This game really has everything one could want in a game: [list] [*]A beautiful, colorful, and unique art style. [*]A killer soundtrack. [*]Fun and interesting game mechanics. [/list] Having a game set in the Spanish Conquista turned out to be really interesting, and the attention to historical detail in the game was very surprising. It really seems that the developers did put a lot of effort into every historical character, location, and object, which does also benefit the in-game story a lot. One thing that motivated me to try this game and which I found praise-worthy was the game's available Huasteca Nahuatl translation. An important part of learning any language is having a wide variety of media available in said language, yet, as anybody who has ever had to learn a minority language—whether it be due to work, research, or revitalization efforts— will know, finding said media in such languages can be a very hard task. Therefore, having a fully developed game with tons of dialogue available in Huasteca Nahuatl results insanely helpful. I'll be honest though, the game could have some small tweaks done in order to improve it's gameplay experience. For instance, [spoiler]after getting to Tenochtitlan, the game's last portion and final boss battle against Cacalotl do feel rather rushed and anticlimactic[/spoiler], and improvements such as the ability to zoom in and zoom out of the map or a quest log could be added. However, overall if you want to play a historical game based set in the Spanish conquest of Mesoamerica, you'll have a blast playing this game!

I bought this game with kind of low expectations. I didn't think quasi-historical Metroidvania featuring a conquistador fighting in Mexico was going to be either boring or so absurd it would've been pointless to give it the place-setting it has. I must say I was pleasantly surprised with this game. Firstly it's a very competent MV. It has a good variety of enemies and locations. There's a variety of hidden hideaways and some tough puzzles. The enemies have two varieties. There's local fauna like jaguars, ocelots, armadillos and there's human enemies which include both the Spanish and natives. The fights are mostly fun but sometimes can be overwhelming and you need to resort to some cheese tactics occasionally to prevail. The bosses are a varied. Some are just straight fights with adds that join and some have a more puzzled element to them. None of the boss fights took me more than 3 tries. This is not a punishingly difficult game but it's not a walk in the park either. The tougher puzzles involved juggling explosive items to blow up walls and the damn dog levels where you navigate your faithful companion Luna through obstacle courses to retrieve items or throw switches. Both are pretty stressful and can be frustrating. The story was a bit hard to follow but included a few notable people from that era of history. Francisco Cortes and Montezuma make an appearance. Sometimes it would show you where to go next to advance the story and sometimes I just wandered into it. The map was serviceable and auto marked walls and ability gates. There's fast travel and it uses modern style MV meta where you don't lose notable items when if you die or quit before a save. I would tier list it as a B+ in a MV tier list.

Es el primer juego de la empresa y tienes algunos errores o fallos pero en general es bueno el juego, le doy un 7.5/10 porque el juego como metroidvania es bueno, el estilo artístico, la historia no es nada del otro mundo pero cumple, lo único malo para mi fueron 4 situaciones: Tiene fallos como perderte en el mapa y no saber donde ir, a veces hay un circulo que te dice donde ir pero otras veces no. Otra los niveles de plataforma del perro, el perro desliza siempre, haciendo que cada salto sea preciso y reintentes varias veces la sección aunque gracias a dios, solo obligatorias son 3, las demás son para coleccionables. Hay muchas situaciones que tienes que apretar muchas combinaciones de botones seguidas y un fallo y volver a empezar, ejemplo, salto, dash, pegar al piso, dash otra vez, clavar la alabarda, saltar, planear y gancho (que no funciona muy bien). La última situación fueron peleas con jefes, requiere mucha habilidad y suerte, me pasé el juego 2 veces y el jefe final le gané tratando de bugearlo para que no me pegue mientras salto constantemente golpeándolo, en mi segunda partida le gané en el intento 10 u 11. Recomiendo si te gusta los juegos metroidvania, plataforma y difíciles. Duración del juego: 20 horas si quiere el 100% y es tu primera vez jugando.

Que gran juego, fue un descubrimiento dentro de las ofertas que lanza Steam. Una historia muy bien detallada de la cultura mexicana y todo lo que sucedio en el periodo de la llegada de los españoles. Un Metroidvania entretenido no tan complicado hasta que le agarras la onda a los controles y combos, muy recomendado de verdad; no es tan conocido este juego debido a que lo desarrollo un estudio español; pero si lo juegas notaras el amor y la dedicación que le pusieron. Dale un chance sin error a pagar por el, te dará horas de juego inolvidables.

Very surprisingly good Metroidvania. I really enjoyed , maybe not the most difficult but still a banger through and through. maybe fix shields so they don't do damage when you grapple them away.
