VERDICTĭungeon Hunter: Alliance is a very enjoyable game bringing old games such as Zelda in my eyes back to where they should be in there original form with an advancement of graphics and interface. The areas themselves aren’t very big and the game itself is installed onto your hard drive you would think with this in mind that it would take a few seconds in between each area. The main thing that disappointed me about this game was the loading time between each area. Again this isn’t a huge problem for long as the character is fairly small on the screen and does change when your purchase or find new armor but we are still stuck with generic colors for each armor set. There is no choice of gender, color alteration or even a choice of preset look-sets. Upon starting the game there are 3 main characters to choose from however you can only change the characters name. Although this is a pain it does give you the feel of an old-school RPG It holds you back for a bit but once you have got your head around it becomes fairly simple within time.īetween various missions sometimes you get a little lost with no clear direction of where to go or what to do which does become stressful after a while. This is thanks to how difficult it is to set up various attacks to different buttons and how to use you skill points once you level up. NOTįor the first few missions it took a while to get used to the control system. Visually it is really pleasing to explore although it doesn’t hit a new bench mark for the graphical capability it certainly is a very artistically interesting game. You can also join random games with a fairly solid number of servers that are available.įrom watching the trailer before playing the game, my overall expectations were low including the graphics, however once you get out of the first dungeon you begin to notice just how much detail has been put into the environment. Playing it alone the bosses can be really tough but when you work as a team, the game becomes more tactical in working together to kill various baddies. Which is a personal preference as i enjoy being able to skill up and aim for certain skills and objects.ĭungeon Hunter: Alliance does stand by itself on single player mode but I would strongly recommend playing it through with a friend. Each character has 4 main attributes which you choose to skill when you level-up according to armor and weapons that you choose to wield throughout the game. There are 3 main character types within Dungeon Hunter: Alliance: Fighter, Mage or Rogue each having there own special abilities. The story is very strong and is playable more than once due to the various locations and environments. Although it is a little disappointing that there are no voice-overs used in the game. But as the story unfolds, you begin to learn more about the lands and who you are – making you want to push on through and find out more. HOTĪfter first getting into the game, I was a bit skeptical about the storyline as you wake up 25 years after being dead in the middle of a huge tomb, with no real explanation as to why.

It's a shame, and it's great that the following games understood how to make good DLCs for their games.Dungeon Hunter: Alliance is downloadable title available from the PSN Store developed by Gameloft. While some developers do go above and beyond when it comes to adding these DLCs to their games, there are others that use the veil of DLCs to suck out as much money from a player's wallet as possible. Updated Jby Ritwik Mitra: The term DLC is something that has elicited everything from wonder to horror in the modern age of gaming. After all, how could they not want that content if they loved playing through the base game? It is no wonder fans typically feel like they are being forced to spend more money. Some DLCs unlock different outfits, classes, and more. Some DLCs introduce new and memorable characters and others open entire new maps to explore.
