   Cons:-simple things that would make a game Game of the Year such as: the lack of a map, can not change the character without an obelisk, moving action Cadocc more realistic graphics with more filtering capabilities.
   
   I honestly do not regret having bought this game, I think unfair to give such a low note, if we compare many games in this genre Hunted manages to stand out, I recommend it to fans of Hack n Slash and medieval fantasy.… Expand

   This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I absolutely loved this game. Postponed the purchase because of the mixed critiques, but I was disappointed positively. This game is not for everyone, I think some expected more from it. It is what it is, a dungeon crawler as it was advertised, no more, no less. Great action mixed with some puzzles and exploration. The story is decent, even if you get to know the most of it from the dead. It feels a bit like reading a book, there are plenty of things left for your imagination, but you'll never feel cheated. These little personal stories only enrich the universe of Hunted.
   The design of the game overall is decent, you won't run into the same setting twice. You really feel the space even if you mostly go through linear sections. The graphic is nice and I definitely would not call it dated. The puzzles are not particularly hard, you will have to rely on your perception mostly to get them done. If you tired when you play, there's a bigger chance you miss secret areas and otherwise obvious solutions to riddles.
   I think the gameplay is decent too. The action has good dynamics. It's a bit repetitive, but I never got bored of slaying hundreds of ugly beasts. It's simply fun! Recently I felt disappointed by big over-hyped titles which look good, but have very little to offer in terms of entertaining gameplay. Hunted restored my faith.
   The only downsides are the bugs. They are not as nearly as annoying as some say, but they are there. But I have seen much worse cases recently, so I think it's forgivable.
   Overall it's a 9. And I think this game is underrated.… Expand

   First off, let me start by saying this game does not deserve all the negative criticism it is getting. Those criticizing the game are eitherFirst off, let me start by saying this game does not deserve all the negative criticism it is getting. Those criticizing the game are either playing on systems below specs or with outdated drivers. With even a semblance of a decent rig, the game will be playable with little/no FPS lag. That being said, this game is definitely not for everyone, and there are some problems with CoOp. If you're looking for the loot-driven randomness of Diablo or Torchlight, this game will disappoint. For what the game is, which is a hack-n-slash based in an RPG setting, Hunted delivers on several fronts. Battles are challenging and exciting, especially on higher difficulties. The dark mood and setting have been very eerie. Do NOT play this game in a dark room at night! The ability system is somewhat simplistic, so it may disappoint "true roleplayers" who are used to games like Dragon Age: Origins or KotOR. This isn't really a drawback, though, since, if you're playing this game, you just want to smash things to bits anyway. For the PC version, I did not find the graphics "dated", as some users have implied, but there can be some texture tearing even when there shouldn't be. To summarize, if you want a game that will help you let off some steam, challenge you (and a friend!) with epic battles, and make you feel like a hero, pick this one up. Just realize that it may not be what you expect it to be, and that there might be some problems which, hopefully, can be solved with some updates in the future.… Expand

   Antes que todo debo decir que este juego lo terminé ya, la mayor parte del tiempo lo jugue en modo desconectado porque estuve algunos días sinAntes que todo debo decir que este juego lo terminé ya, la mayor parte del tiempo lo jugue en modo desconectado porque estuve algunos días sin internet(el juego me habrá tomado entre unas 12 a 14 horas).
   Hunted, es un juego de acción con pequeños elementos de rol y muy simplificado. Se trata de algo así como acción con dungeon crawler, donde atravesaras grandes escenarios oscuros en gran parte, derrotando enemigos, juntando coleccionables y adquiriendo versiones mejoradas de tus armas.
   La historia se centra en dos mercenarios; Caddoc el humano y E'lara la elfa. Tal y como se da en los juegos de fantasias, el humano será un fuerte guerrero y la elfa, una excelente arquera. La cosa que puedes usar a cualquiera de estos dos personajes, pudiendo cambiar en ciertas partes del escenario(hay a cada rato asi que no es problema).
   Sin ser nada del otro mundo, el juego nuestra el viaje que emprenden estos dos codiciosos mercenarios para obtener riquezas, pero se ven inmersos en un problema mayor y terminan sin quererlo, siendo los héroes que salvaran el mundo. Una historia típica de este tipo, pero que te mantiene expectante durante el transcurso del juego.
   Lejos lo mejor son los diálogos de nuestros "Héroes", muy divertidos, a veces muy egoístas o vulgares. Recuerdo cuando rescatas a una persona y le dicen "ya vuelve a tu pueblo no tendrás problemas porque ya matamos a los enemigos" con tanta indiferencia que el salvado dice: "eso es todo?, vaya estos son los peores heroes que he visto".
   La jugabilidad es simple, entretiene bastante el sistema de combate, pero hay poca variedad de enemigos, y en general es super repetitivo y lineal el juego.
   Lo mejor de las estapas, son las quests secundarias de resolver acertijos, son simples. pero le dan mística al juego, lástima que en los últimos capítulos ya no hay de esto.
   El final es abrupto, los escenarios son tan prolijos, que no me había dado cuenta que ya habia llegado al final boss. Un final amargo, pero interesante, eso si tiene 3 finales, 2 malos y uno bueno ;)
   
   Lo bueno:
   - Los protagonistas son muy divertidos, los diálogos que tienen pueden sacarte risas.
   - Jugabilidad de pelea rápida y divertida.
   - Historia simple que cumple bien.
   
   Lo malo:
   
   - Mucha linealidad.
   - Armas muy iguales.
   - Poca variedad de enemigos.
   
   Lo recomiendo, pero cuando esté en oferta.… Expand

This game had built up some pretty big hype with the Crucible Trailer and the rebirth of Co-op dungeon crawlers. After finishing this game I had more enjoyment playing "The First Templar" then this game and I was surprised .
   I thing I really did not like is the graphics and the palette they used. I understand they were trying to make gritty but it looks like mush to me. The gameplay is really repetitive but there are some neat fights here and there. You must play co-op in this game. It is so much better in everyway and the time can go past quite quickly sometimes. I give this game two ratings. 4/10 for Single player and 6.5/10 for Co-op, overall a 5/10.
   +Fun co-op
   -Too gritty and too muck. -Repetitive.… Expand
