Below expectations

I must admit I'm writing this review even though I haven't finished the game. Then again, I'm not planning to because it just didn't get me hooked. Some decent games were based on the Pen&Paper-RPG "The Dark Eye" so far: "Drakensang" as well as its prequel, and "Chains of Satinav".

Blackguards, however, focuses solely on fighting and compromises everything else that has made the other games so charming. No atmosphere, no free will - you're just railroaded from battle to battle.

From a technical point of view I can't believe that this is from 2014. Below standard even for a non-US-game. Not even the lips are moving! Kudos to the witty dialogue writers and the voice actors, who at least give the main characters some personality.
