Of course, this is a great file, but as a dmod the gameplay here just does not stack up well against the great epics.

Gameplay:7
I especially hated the "bombing the rock" part, and in general the stuff you have to do is just too random! Instead of having clear obstacles which must be overcome by some trickery, you often just end up killing time in some random way (say by saving someone), after which the obstacle disappears (example: bridge to windemere). Of course this is also true of, for instance, Vice City, but that is a completely different situation.

The fighting is decently balanced, though it trends towards easy.

Style:10
Hilarious. No one has suceeded in recapturing Seth's sick humor. To see why, take a look at the RTSoft website...

Story:9
Eh, it starts out ok, but the rambling hero (and sometimes just "get to the next area") bit is pretty lame. In short, this is a reasonable story, but far from great.

Overall:8.7
Basically, scratcher has a point...
