#SHADE WRATH OF ANGELS REVIEWS PATCH#

The 1.2 patch released soon after I installed the game fixed a lot of this (namely the ability to withdraw and sheath your sword while moving), but it's still not nearly as fluid as Blade. I've actually had to chase some of them down so I could hack 'em.Д¬haracter movement was very stiff at first. If you jump onto a ledge they will walk to the point where you jumped up from, and then begin following the wall until they inevitably get lost. There is a major flaw in the pathfinding when they attack you, though. and if there's more than one they will try to surround you (in which is the best time to morph, take a couple of swings and watch the corpses fly!). The melee enemies run directly at you and swing when they get close. The spell casters and archers mostly run away from you until they get far enough, and then try to injure you with a ranged attack.

You have your archers, your melee fighters, and your spell casters. The enemies are varied in looks, but not so much in combat style. Unfortunately by the time I got the spell the enemies where strong enough to withstand all six explosions. My favorite spell was 'Skulls of Death' where a bunch of skulls would float around your head, and when an enemy comes close they fly off one by one towards it and explode on contact. Once I figured this out, a whole new level of depth was added to the combat.ДЄs a demon, you can also collect (by finding glowing golden tears hidden in barrels and far corners in various places, and using them as money to buy spells later on) and cast fairly useless spells such as fireballs, fire walls, fire swarms, and freeze. Somehow I figured out that to perform it, you need to be in your blocking stance while holding the attack button and press the directions on the keyboard for which special move you want to perform. You press F1 to see what combos you can do (also, exactly like Blade) and all they will say is 'up, up' or 'right, right', etc.

#SHADE WRATH OF ANGELS REVIEWS HOW TO#

It wasn't until halfway through the game before I even figured how to execute one. With the sword you can perform special moves (or combos, as I like to call them), and as you progress through the game, you acquire more combos (again, similar to Blade). You are invincible (but any damage taken will reduce your time as a demon) and your strength is devastating. The effects during this transition are impressive ( movie, 1 meg) and while in demon form, with your talon arms you can really knock the hell out of some zombies. With the touch of a button you can morph into a demon. If you climb a ladder or rope you must drop it. You can also pick up any enemy dropped weapon (like Blade), but unfortunately you cannot stock it in your inventory. It was right about here where I stopped paying attention to the story.ДЄt first you are armed only with a pistol, but later get a neat glowing white sword (similar to the sword of Ianna in Blade) and the ability to morph into a demon. the voice sounds female, but the main character refers to it as 'it', and the subtitles say 'him' when he says 'it'.) says in order to find your brother. An angel appears and says you have to do what he/she (the gender is not specified in the game. When you get to the house he was supposed to be in you find he is gone. The town is completely empty save for some zombies. You first start out in Italy (I think) looking for your brother.

More days and weeks went by and I simply happened to see it at an Electronics Boutique store in Douglasville, Georgia. The game was released on the 1st of October, 2004 and I had no clue.

It wasn't groundbreaking, but it had lots of potential. I know it's not fair to the makers of this game, but throughout this review I will be making references to Blade of Darkness in many aspects that the games are similar or different.ДЄnd then the Shade demo is quietly released, and after seeing the screenshots I decide to try it out. they fall short of the combat perfection that is Blade of Darkness. While all of the aforementioned games are good games in their own right. I've tried Archangel, Rune, Enclave, Gothic I and II, Demon Stone, Blood Omen 2, and Apocalyptica. In my everlasting search for another game like Blade of Darkness, I try out many games that might even be remotely like it.
