Отзывы Telepath Tactics

Игра понравилась, жду ремейка. Good job.

Generally good game because there is a lack of such strategies. The bad thing that the author got in a trap of "let's do hardcore because it is the old games styles". Yes, hardcore is a good thing when it is applied thoughtfully, with the aim to get the game enjoyable. But here we do see a trash mix of hardcore game features. First, you can not save the game at any time. You have one save slot for current game, and you can save only at the start of a mission. The game is hard, and the hard mission is clearly more then an hour to pass (also I am at start of campaing now); so if you you have minimized the game anf play about 10 minutes per hour then your time may be trashed if you'll close game before you have finished current mission. The hardiness of the game does make you to be intrested in keeping your party at maximum strength, else you can get stuck at one of the missions. If you are not strong enough to win current mission of the campaign, you should start all the campaing all over again to be better equipped to that mission. So, you should decide whether you are going to waste your time at the end of battle, trying not to finish off remaining enemies before you would lay your hands on boxes (no, you can not gather resourses when you have killed all enemies including their backpacks, mission ends immidiately, if author thinks he is smart about it then I think quite elsehow). To encourage you to start all campaing from the very start at some moment, the game autosaves you right after you have done shopping. Also it is not clearly when you would be able to go to shop, and when you won't. To make some additional "hardcore" thing, your weapons can break down after some uses. It won't be bad by itself, but it does stacks wonderfully with unknown amount of enemies before the next shop - you sgould try to guess if you would start campaign all over again because your weapons were broken before the next shop, or because you've bought too much weapons, didn't bought enough armor, your characters started to fall unconcious with decreasing their maximum hitpoins or started to use too many bandages. AI is bad, which is not a drawback by itself because generally 95% and more strategies have bad AI, but it stacks badly with the next features. The enemies are overpowered with numbers, and judgibg by the mission after the first shop, your victory may depend on your experience of learning how do the scripts of the current mission work (you should hope you won't trigger scripts + AI to make all enemy forces to attack you at once). Also, when the mission begins, your characters do not have their 'energy' at maximum, and it is not known if there would be a negative effects if you would skip at some point (when enemies do not go for you) turns to regain energy (no, darling author, it is not a hardcore feature, it is a shit feature, battle should be acessible for analysis in strategy). Also, the current battle would be started all over again if one of two main heroins (8 total members in a party) falls; so if you've successfully bypasses some first stages of battle (before AI would start to send new waves on you) then you would probably have much boring time replaying this stage over and over again (you can not save during the battle, as you remember). No, you can not afford to keep critical characters behind the lines, the battles are hard. Yes, enemies can take out about 75% of current health with single attack (pyromancers). So, play this game if you like strategies enough to tolerate all this nonsense. P.S, Now I am close to understanding what did author meant telling that in casual mode, characters hitpoints would be 'slightly' decreased. Now I have level 5 fire mage with 26 hitpoints, and level 6 light mage with 18 hitpoints, light mage falled two-three times, maximum 4. So, generally the characters which has poor protection (considering their role) would probably eventually become one-hit falling, gradually becoming weaker (if you was not able to keep a unit standing once, it would be harder to leave him standing in future; if it falls two times, it is even more hard and so on).

Очень хорошая тактическая боевая система, но слишком много разнообразных недостатков: - отсутствует возможность сохранить игру. Даже между боями. Такой вот навязанный хардкор. - бои слишком затянуты даже при двойной скорости юнитов - нет нормального магазина, торговцы появляются только по скриптам. Вкупе с ломающимся оружием может доставить серьезные проблемы. Зачем, вообще, оружие в игре ломается? - неудобный интерфейс - особенности графики не всегда позволяют верно оценить уровень высоты местности - "нормальный" уровень сложности выбешивает необходимостью переигровки миссии в случае случайной гибели любого персонажа - в отряде одни женщины, половина из которых похожа на мальчиков. Все мужчины перевелись? - очень много диалогов сомнительной художественной ценности, которые приходится прокручивать бесконечными мышекликаниями - зачем игроку таскать с собой полтора десятка юнитов, если в боях участвуют и набирают опыт только 8 любимчиков? Поначалу игра очень понравилась, но вскоре разочаровала. Могу порекомендовать только истинным фанатам жанра. Если, все же, будете играть - играйте на уровне "казуал"!
