    Concluding thoughts: you have to be feeling starved for an RPG on the Wii to want to play this game.
  2. Worth Playing

    No matter how starved you are for some serious RPG action on a system ruled by mini-game compilations, you can do better than this.

    I went into Valhalla Knights with high hopes including the optimism for a clean and smart online co-op multiplayer with a deep and engrossing storyline. Unfortunately I found a very broken and incomplete gaming experience.

In the other hand if you test what this game gots you will find a very deeph game with several lots of options. This is a very hard game, it requires grinding, it requires time, patience, its not like most RPG nowadays, its a bit more dense, more archaic, or classic. It reminds me the times when RPG used to be hard, where you could actually find yourself lost, without any lead of what to do. The graphics of this game sucks, from all the wii games I got, this is probably the one that looks worst, but it's something you can somehow understand, if you consider the amount of things this game puts in. There's a customization of just three characters, and you can select 2 different times, or episodes, both episodes can be related to each other, and so, the gameplay sorta expands, because there are items and armors you can only get in one and you can transfer it to the other. And so, creating the 2 characters and switch between time on time, is the key for this game. I understand the critics of this game, this is not a game with good animations, the design of this game is ok, most of the clothes sucks, but there are a few ones you can find cool, the system of equip, save, quest, and buying might become frustrating. It is not a game that is supose to be easy, only a true hardcore gamer will find it delicious. Dont believe those "professional" scores, I have monster Hunter tri, and this game, and I am not lying when I tell you I have played this game for more time, I admit Monster Hunter got better battles, better concept, better graphics, better cgs, better name, but there is something Valhalla Knights beats Monters Hunter Tri, that is in the customization, lolz. This is a game I dont think I will forget in my life, its like a game made for a few people who had amazing ideas, but not that much money or support. I enjoy this game, if you dont, then you are idiot, thanks for your time.… Full Review »

After giving it a try I snapped it in half and felt it was money well spent. Here's why. First, the weapons system is absolutely retarded. They break on you and you have to repair them or change weapons. BUT! You can only change weapons in a town and NOT when in combat areas. Hmm. How stupid? You have to stay buying potions to heal. You get very little gold from quests and have no idea what you are supposed to do on them. For example, I was supposed to escort this idiot character Leonid (Like the mercenaries you hired who get stuck in dumbass places) who couldn't stop dying and there was no way to heal or revive him. The defining moment in the games destruction was when he kept dying right at the top of these mountains I was supposed to escort him through. Being the kind of person who wont stop playing a game until he masters them and seeing how completely fail this game is. My determination alone is why I broke it, lol. If I wouldn't have broke it I would have wasted to much time trying to complete a quest, not being able too because not enough potions, or weapon breaking at the end, having to walk all the way back to the first town. Stock up. Repair. Use the one way portal (another dumbass feature). And repeat the cycle until you run out of gold. By far this is the worst game I have ever played. The fun must have lied in the hands of the creators making it so success is no option.… Full Review »

    I'm not going to give this game a 9 and then tell you about the mass amounts of flaws in this game. 9s should be reserved for games with I'm not going to give this game a 9 and then tell you about the mass amounts of flaws in this game. 9s should be reserved for games with very few flaws. The repetitiveness of this game as well as the Character AI really bring this game down. It was playable at first but then became a chore to wade through.… Full Review »
