Took SK long enough to get this game out. I do despise the fact that it's a part of a trilogy. After beings years and years in production, they should have been able to include the whole trilogy in one release. The battle system feels odd at first: all I had to do was move the right analogue stick towards the enemy for basic attacks and the game would do the rest. It was like I was barely even playing. After about 5 minutes in, I began to understand why SK programmed the game to play this way: The game is a dungeon crawler. The easier it is to destroy the never-ending supply of monsters, the less the players would feel the grind. It's risky and it's borderline genius. The graphics are not as cutting edge as Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots but they are artistically beautiful. By the end of the demo, I was totally impressed with SK's brilliant approach to the fusion of Norse/Greek storytelling. The dialogues are cleverly written and the battles are fun in an improved Phantasy Star Online sort of way.
Once I got to this scene, I was completely in awe.
There's only one class playable in the demo. The final version will offer five.
