Realms of Arkania 2 - Star Trail Classic reviews and comments

So, I see that the reviews on this game is not at all, and Russian and depressed, I decided to make a contribution.
Who is lazy to read, in short: The game archarch, Oldovaya, versatile and diverse, turn-based Corridornik (and not only), all the Oldagagam, which has not been played in it, but respected and love Might & Magic, Wizardy, Lands of Lore and similar-a-maast HEV to passage!!!
You, qualitatively having wandered and having felt all adventures of the first part, appear in city Kirasim where some muddy elf, and then no less muddy person, ask you to find some Salamander stone, mega multimillion dollar artifact which ostensibly should serve as an alliance Elves and Dwarves in the war with the Orc...
Pros and Cons of the game: 1. A Wide range of character classes 2. Fine Tuning of character characteristics:-Standard skills: strength, agility and etc-phobia (which qualitatively affect the passage of the game, well, for example, a character with a strong fear of heights with a good chance can break from the cliff, when you crawl through the mountains of IAI... Die, without the opportunity to pull his corpse to the temple and try to resurrect =))-Skills (playing, that in the tavern Babyshko hack; stealing-to rob the non-Thistle torgishhes; swimming-not to drown in the City Brook... and others, which is not enough)-faith (a bunch of gods and each of them gives a permanent bonus when creating a character, and then in the same temple you can pray and OP-PA! Ingerim Fixed your sword =)))-If the magic character, there are different variants of classes: Elf, Sorcerer, Druid and magician and even greater variations of pumping by spells: Teleport, summon a demon, lightning, reading thoughts...)
3. Types of the game:-Step corridor in the city \ Dungeons \ Swamps-a global map of travel between settlements and different strange places (with different random events that directly or indirectly can affect the passage of the game, For example, hints to riddles, if not explicit, but to read it is necessary), there is a space where to run and search, having received a share of adventures on 6-7 of asses in a detachment =) Here Also it is necessary to manage the detachment on rest in a way. Someone needs to send for food \ Water, someone to collect grass, so you can be in the way of illness to heal, well, and someone to put on the squad, so that night suddenly no one fell to you on a light-step battle in isometric graphics (A-La Fallout 1-2) 4. Plot. It's up to banal simple, with good humor, amusing side quests and sometimes extremely difficult puzzles (especially, his mother, when you have an ifrite in the words to play it want =)) 5. Complexity. The Game is complicated, not to say that hardcore, but sweat and nervous will definitely.
-Difficult to pump characters (permanent rank of the improvement of the skill (success or failure and even though you are a crack ()-different random events can deprive you of companions (well, for example, he can throw up, because some preacher pts well sit To his ears, and your inspired companion would be served in Jehovah's witnesses, leaving the squad... The truth can be given to the companion of the people and then he kind of realizes that was wrong =)))-complex fights, on the verge of survival 6. Nice old graphics, IMHO, the eye rejoices from these big pixels =) 7. Music... Again IMHO, but these "middies" are very pleasant by ear!
Cons: Honestly, not found them. The Disadvantage is that as a child there was a fun version, and I could not pass it then. But with great pleasure did it now!))
In The network dug a decent rusifier (and text, and voice), all Guglat once, DOS box-easy to configure (for sound everywhere you need to put a sound blaster and the speed of the 13000cel, no more) In general-a decent game, beautiful, versatile, diverse and Exciting, despite the linear storyline and your age. Praf-The number of hours spent on it ~ 40 =))
