Dark Messiah - Review @ Gamers Hell

by Dhruin, 2006-12-03 21:03:19

Gamers Hell has kicked up their review of Dark Messiah.  The score is 6.7/10, with the reviewer a little disappointed it isn't a real RPG:

ARX FATALIS was an RPG told from first-person perspective. DARK MESSIAH, in contast, is really a first-person shooter with some rather minor RPG elements. You begin (and end) as a character named Sareth, and while you learn a variety of skills, spells, and weapons along the way, your journey doesn't entail much in the way of customization. You can learn spells and skills that take your character a little more or less in the direction of a healer, fighter, or mage, but since the single player campaign is primarily a solo one, the best skills and spells are those which increase your strength, stamina, health, and offensive abilities.
