Lionheart: Legacy of
the Crusader Ships to Retail (thanks Frans) is the press release with word
that this SPECIAL-system alternate-reality RPG from Reflexive and Black Isle is
shipping to stores. Here's a bit:
In the game, players can control the entire party themselves or join forces with up to four gamers for mission-based cooperative multi-play. As they progress through the realm of Lionheart: Legacy of the Crusader, players will be able to arm themselves with hundreds of melee weapons and 60 devastating spell attacks as they attempt to turn the tide against a savage onslaught of otherworldly creatures. Lionheart: Legacy of the Crusader also features the SPECIAL RPG system for character advancement previously found in the Fallout® series of PC games.
Certainly not the best CRPG ever made but Lionheart is good fun. I think I would have rated it a little higher than the gamespot review probably in the high sevens. The gamespot reviewer made numerous erroneus statements about the game (i.e. no way to see how much damage you are doing to an enemy) so I don't give too much merit to the review.
I haven't gotten that far yet but so far I've had a blast. It's no Fallout or Planescape:Torment but it'll tide me over until Fallout 3.
