Arcante: Definitive Edition

I'll basically use my forum post as my review, since I didn't get a response on the forum. Game is missing a lot of feedback. Trainers don't tell you how much it costs to train a skill, you can't see the effect stat point allotment has on your combat performance until after locking in the point, you can't see what your abilities do during combat (unless you hold ALT to get a mouse cursor, but then you can't click the ability), etc. Turn based combat is also awkward (but better than active). Skills recharge if you sit there long enough while waiting to take your turn which seems odd since time should be stopped in turn based mode. Also, enemy health only shows up when they're attacking which makes it annoying to determine what to hit with what skill/attack. The game seems like it could be neat, but there is some basic information type stuff lacking. It's a shame really, because this is they type of game I've been asking around about for some time now. Party based first person explor...

Just a cash grab. Content drops off after the first two areas and none of it is realized all that well. The only positive I can say about it is that you figure it out pretty quickly. Makes a half-hearted effort to be a might and magic game. Misses the point completely.

The game is good, I've already enjoyed it. I played through the game and it had something of the old role-playing classics.

Fun little game nice graphics and pays great homage to the old school rpgs such as might and magic i recommend it.

I picked this title up as i am a long time fan of Might and Magic. If you were a fan of MM6-8 then you will sincerely appreciate the effort that Luca (dev) has made to try and capture the style of those games. Is it perfect? Absolutely not. But it scratches that old school, party rpg itch. For $7 it really is worth supporting an effort to keep an old genre alive and i am not disappointed. I would love to see Luca add and polish up this game a little more because the potential with this game is nuts! I have had the pleasure to speak with Luca via email and he is very receptive of ideas and criticisms. He is one guy and i just wish more people passionate about this genre could get behind this and help escalate this game to the next level.
