The only way to win is to, between each round, talk to Takate and figure out what you need to say. When Cassia is trying to convince Takate to join her team, the bored warrior instead send various animals to try and kill her. Speaking of which, I’d like to give a shout out to one of the more interesting battles I got to try out. Sometimes you’re simply trying to run to the other side of the map, sometimes you’re trying to kill everything, and sometimes you’re hoping to find the right path to take in a dialogue tree. Let’s not forget the sprawling maps, interactive objects, and traps around every corner. The radial skill system is back and as useful as ever. You’ll still battle enemies in round based combat on a hexagonal grid. It’s interesting to see how those characters evolved over the years, as the end of the first game has left them a bit weary.Īs far as the game goes, it’s mostly carried over from the first game. Even stuck in her prison, Cassia heard tales of their exploits. In particular, Naurim, Takate, and Zurbaran all come back to fill vital roles in your party. Several characters from the first game are back for more. It’s kind of silly, but it could create some incredibly interesting moments I’m sure.ĭon’t worry though. Upon breaking out of said dungeon, Cassia begins to work towards her new dream of revenge and world domination. Left to rot, Cassia goes mad over the years but also grows more powerful thanks to a rather helpful tome full of spells. As the story sets out, Cassia is cast in a labyrinth of a dungeon under the coliseum from the first game. With the upcoming Blackguards 2, Daedalic Entertainment hopes to streamline the mechanics as well as tell an interesting story.īlackguards 2 will follow the story of Cassia of Tenos. It followed a rather strict adherence to the rules, which meant it rubbed some the wrong way. It was a darn good tactical RPG based off the Dark Eye tabletop books. Earlier this year, I reviewed Blackguards for the PC.
