Orcs Must Die! 2 Review (Akira)
This game is both an improvement and downgrade of the first game. And here are why:
Improvement:
+More traps to play with
+More levels to play including classic and endless
+2 characters to play as
+New weapons to experiment with
Downgrade:
+Weapons do not feel good to use. Ex: Crossbow can no longer headshot constantly like the first game even when I already aimed at my enemy's head
+Un-upgraded traps suck. I can kill more enemies by farting in their directions than waiting for the trap to actually kill them. DoT traps are fine but active traps? Nope.
+Annoying enemies: OK I get it, the game need to be challenging in order to keep player interesting but how do you F up by introducing succidal enemies early in the game? Oh and with the exit no longer heal you, good luck staying alive with those annoying gremblins charge at you and detonate their explosive, destroying barcade and killing you in the process. And don't get me started with the Orge.
Overall, OMD2 is an OK game but oh boy did the game sometimes makes me want to tear shorts and eat it Bart Simpson 's style.
