Blizzard Store Game

Yikes, sorry for the drawback– had to restart Trinity: Souls of Zill O’ll over because of a corrupt save file. (Although that doesn’t seem to be a bug for the game, unlike Castlevania last year). Anyways, I’ve gotten to a point in Trinity that it’s actually fun. I’m growing to like the combat system.

For those of you who haven’t read my first Log, I mentioned that the combat was similar to Dynasty Warriors– you hack and slash and mobs. However, Trinity gives you three characters to play, and each of them do have their own pros and cons. For instance,Warcraft 3 The Frozen Throne, Areus is a well-rounded fighter, but he’s the one who only knows magic. Thus, he’s very good for affecting the environment (like turning ice into water). Whereas Dagda is really good at handling mobs because he has larger attacks. Then Selene is the overall nimble one who can get rid of the archers for you. In essence, this game can be very hellish if you don’t take advantage of the field with a particular character. (I learned this just now).

I haven’t gotten story progression yet,Starcraft II Wings of Liberty CD Key, needless to say, this game doesn’t actually have one. It has a backstory, but since it follows the “quest”-type of game… you basically go on quests. It’s very similar to Final Fantasy XII’s and Final Fantasy Tactic’s type of quest-giving system. So everything seems to be one big tangent at times.

Otherwise, I really like the monsters. They’re all different and have their pros and cons in battle so you actually have to strategize a little. Couple that with environmental manipulation, and you realize that button-mashing the ol’ Dynasty Warriors way will only hurt you. (I mention Dynasty Warriors because Trinity is made by Koei, same developers to Dynast Warriors. So there’s some familiarity in this game.) Also the monsters are very Western– there’s a gorgon type of monster (called a Typhon), wolves, and trolls– things that pop out in fairy tales in the West.

Thus, if you really enjoy quests, ESPECIALLY monster hunts, this game won’t bore you. It’s quite fulfilling in fact in that aspect.

[Tips and Tricks]
*Don’t just stick to Areus. As much as he is beautiful to look at it and listen to, Dagda will provide a much better sweep in certain situations. Essentially, don’t run into a pack of wolves with Areus… do it with Dagda. I learned that the hard way.

*Have FIVE Herbal Medicine. No matter what, always keep a full stock. As Areus, you can easily get overwhelmed by a large mob. As Dagda,Command & Conquer Kane’s Wrath, you can easily get slowed down by faster enemies. The combat system takes some time to get used to for this game.

*You could fall off ledges. I didn’t realize that. But you can also push enemies off of them.

*R3 is lock-on. Use it all the time.
