The Valiant Review (serkiy)

storywise it is good but has some unnecessary or missing parts like snow king or witch queen missions are unnecessary imo, not related with their quest. they were like side missions. as for missing part, how did the warband end up meeting Faysal? he was added out of nowhere to fill the missile hero gap.
there are some pathfinding issues when you give attack order with more than 1 unit selected and if there is an obstacle between the target and them. in this case, if some of the units engage in combat, slow units left behind starts to go left and right or up and down around the obstacle like with their every move shortest route is changing so they cannot pick the right one. also sometimes units move slower than their normal speed. i mean while there is no combat. just moving from point A to point B.
priests are PIA. they cannot fight but hard to kill and if there are multiple of them, you are doomed. especially during NG+ with their earlier appearance than normal gameplay. when you use them, they melt like but meet hot knife though.
the game needs a gear counter during gameplay imo. as the missions get longer and the heat of combats rise, i forget how many gears can be collected and how many of them i collected.
i agree with steam forums about not having a manual save function. i prefer to build up first before moving on. once i had progressed a lot in a mission and the game crashed and i had to start over from a checkpoint from 1 or 2 hours ago.
i did not get the medal and xp system in general. units get xp for kills? or more medals mean more xp?
it is also weird to see heroes speaking with their mouth not moving.
even though everything i wrote are negative, i liked the game. i would give 6(maybe 7 if i push a little) out of 10.
