What's your thoughts on this game? Just bought it from the steam sale and it looks fun.
>>
>>318184054
Great series that is slowly but surely getting killed off by the new developers
>>
>>318184132
Don't fucking remind me, Codemasters has said that they are gonna do racing games only
It's not like they said FoE wouldn't involve any decisions made or for a possible Overlord 3
It's not like the fact that the game is utter shit
>>
>>318184054
you can see overlord's goblin face on the cover
>>
>>318184054
It starts fun but the AI pathing for the minions gets annoying as shit in some levels.
>>
>>318184495
WOW DUDE SPOILERS

Are both games worth playing or should I just play the second one?
>>
>>318184780
both games are great and I personally recommend both

2 is better tho
>>
>>318184780
>SPOILERS
For an 8 year old game? Also the Overlord isn't a Goblin so it's not even a spoiler.
>>
>>318184892
How is the Raising hell expansion?
>>
>>318184054
Picked it up on a whim years ago and ended up loving the hell out of it. You're in for a good time.
>>
>>318185213
It gives an extra bit of life to one

back when it was first released it was like a demo of what they had planned for 2 in my eyes.
>>
>>318184054
Quite amusing at start, but later can be boring.
>>
>>318184054
You could have gotten it for 1$ along with some other shit on humble bundle doofus. Return it quick.
>>
>>318186002
Well I bought the Overlord 2 as well, they both cost a lot cheaper than the one in Humble Bundle thanks to steam using my country's currency
>>
>>318184054
Great game. It's no masterpiece and definitely flawed, but really fun nonetheless

>>318184780
Both are worth playing, but imo the first one is better. Also remember to play the dlc for the first one, it's pretty good.

>2 is better tho

While 2 is good game, i think doesn't hold up Overlord 1 (especially compared with the expansion)
There isn't any dungeon and loot to do, the magic system was really bad (but i liked the upgrade system, can't deny that) and the some sections were more annoying rather than fun (goddamn i hated those section with the boat
>>
>>318184054
1 and Raising Hell is the better of the existing Overlord games.

2 is slightly less better but still good.

The Wii game is something I didn't play, but heard it's short.

>>
>>318187559
the wii game is kinda short, but not that short.
Its proabably the best overlord game
>>
>>318187775
Sorry.

I mixed shit up.

Wanted to say: Slightly worse.

Why? The spells weren't as diverse as in vanilla.
>>
>>318188047
Well it actually miss the fire spells and it turned all of them into a minion bomb that no one ever fucking used
I forgotten about it until i miss-clicked by mistake
>>
>>318187559
Its a solid game, but it barely has any upgrades and its kinda short.
>>
>>318188351
Spells in vanilla were actually cool and useful. The spells in 2 are all the same spells cast in a different way.

>>318188382
Pity the Wii game is exclusive to that console.

And I sadly don't have a Wii.
>>
>>318188559
How the about hte new one?
Is really THAT bad?
>>
>>318188559
Does the game run well in an emulator?
>>
>>318189076
The not!3 with the four Overlords?

People exploded in RAGE when the video announcement appeared.

>>318189341
Never tested the emulator. Does it require a Wii remote?
>>
>>318189447
The game required the wii remote for aiming, and the nunchuck to activate the minion bomb (by grabbing a minion and shaking the living fuck out of it).
>>
>>318189447
Who wouldn't be mad as fuck?
I was one of the first who seen the tweet of the helm and i was hyped as fuck for an entire month until the trailer kicked in
I hoped until now at least the game was decent but it looks like it not even mediocre.
And now Codemaster has announced that they will only focus on racing games.
How can they be so fucking incompetent?
>>
>>318189779
Darn. I'll need to buy one then.

But first need to see if it's compatible with a PC.

>>318189975
Yep. I wanted a new Overlord game with more of everything, with a longer gameplay than the first ones, and with more upgrades and possibilities.

Instead we got a not!Diablo.
>>
>>318190236
My last hope is of triumph games to buy the IP and do Overlord 3
I hope they focus they were talking about it's what about their in-house devs and not contracts with indipendent devs like triumph games
>>
>>318190236
I'm pretty sure you can use a wii remote on the pc somehow. Can't remember if it was by using a bluetooth adapter or a special USB sensor bar, or a mixture of both.

The only issue for me with dark legend is that there isn't much variation in the upgrading system.
>>
>>318190868
This. But the chances would be really darn low.

>>318191050
Man I hate experimenting with this kind of stuff.
>>
>>318191340
Yeah, configuring this kind of thing is a pain in the ass.
>>
I liked the game a lot because of the fact its a game about being a straight up evil overlord
>>
>>318194157
I saw someone describe it as "Sauron Simulator 2007."
>>
It's really fun
>>
>>318184054
Tried the second one. It is absolute garbageware. Like, barely functional and not fun at all.
>>
>>318184054
this game was the shit, now i have to go do another playthrough
thanks OP
