About

Confrontation is the TRPG and the video game adaptation of the tabletop title of the same name by Rackham. That is the only title in the IP, and the game is developed by Cyanide. This studio is also famous for the Pro Cycling Manager series.

Plot

The narrative in the game is presented via short briefings given to the player before the missions. The events depicted in the game cannot vary — the game is highly linear. The whole story circles around the constant fights of the protagonist team with no motivation for them provided whatsoever. All of the playable characters remain silent most of the time during the gameplay process.

Gameplay

The video game adopts a plot from the tabletop wargaming. The setting is shared between two titles — it is the stylized medieval world called Aarklash which is constantly torn down by some races typical of role-playing games: wizards, knights, and priests. There are many outcomes to the game while it is unknown which fraction prevails.
The video game adaptation inherits the world and builds an adventure around the team of heroes composed out of 4 characters chosen by the player. This team travels through levels, guiding each other through the enemies, traps, and puzzles along the way. The game does not feature any NPC's to talk with and complex puzzles to solve — any riddle works according to mechanics "pull the lever — open the door.

Confrontation reviews and comments

And That's what everyone is doing on this game. A Great way to learn something about the Ragnar universe. The Tactics are many, the levels are great quite interesting. It is Quite possible to combine the abilities of fighters in every way. You can rebuild the squad, adapting to different types of opponents. Variability is high. Great design of units (here Yes, thanks to the original tincture). The Graphics are also normal. Can polygons and not enough places, but nothing annoying flicker, the overflow of flowers, dust particles and other worthless ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ it.

A good idea, a good choice, but a bad development, as always, on the part of "Cyanide". It Is A good game, the idea is very good (it is a style to Baldur Gate) but very badly executed. When you want to give an order to a character, he may do it or he may do whatever he wants. They change from melee weapon to weapon at a distance when they want, even if you've told them to put on a certain weapon. No objects, do not expect to put a gun to each character, come with one or two and the only thing you can do is improve... But between two options, one or the other. And If you choose one discard the other. They Are relatively small, very linear maps in which the only function is to kill pulls (groups of 2 or 3) of enemies. I repeat another shit, one of the few companies that perform role-playing games, which has good ideas but badly carried out.

It's All a matter of taste, but to say that the game is bad is not correct. First, it is a party RPG, which is very small now. Made on the ground, and let the player gets into the thick of events, not really understanding all the history and motivations of the characters, but behind the shoulders is felt an epic storyline, still there is a sequel-Legacy (already with positive reviews, but I have not had time to get acquainted with it). Secondly, personally I really like the atmosphere of the game, the sound, the style. Each character is unique, in his armor, with his weapon (as the passage of the story armor visually changes, improves), half in masks, beautiful armor, from such a variety I just fart, look like Persians very epic. There are warriors, magicians, clerics, forming your squad, sticking to certain tactics. Parameters of characters do not always correspond to numbers, some fight better and desperate, it is necessary to try everyone. Personally to me this game was a little, I wanted even more. Since it is a party RPG, during the passage was greatly nostalgic for the Games Forgotten Realms, let this game and easier. It Seems to me that so many negative reviews because the game is sometimes really difficult, as in BG-one fight runs smoothly and all are alive, another replay five times. 2 In The Steam game in English, but if you buy a copy at one of the many Russian shops, the Russian language will be present!
