A nightmare of a game...

User Rating: 4.3 | Mage Knight: Apocalypse PC
There's a lot to not like about this title. First there's the 45 minutes it takes to install the game from 6 CDs (should have been a DVD game). There's a lot of interface issues, but by far the most frustrating and irritating component of this interface has to be the camera control. Everything and I mean everything is manual. You will spend most of your time lining up the camera angle so you can see what is going on. This design destroys this game and is the most nerve grinding feature of it. Had they fixed the camera or added an option for an auto-camera feature then you would have a half decent game here. Instead of getting into the game, you spend a good chunk of it directing the visuals. So if you're looking for a simulation of what it would be like to be Peter Jackson directing Lord of the Rings IV, this title is right up your alley. If you want a fun RPG, look elsewhere, this game will just leave you frustrated.
