Very calm and atmospheric game. Love it!

Yes just get it

Ugly but great personality

Have you ever seen a meme of a celebrity and next to them is a look-a-like, but like a less attractive version of them? Well this is the best way to describe Wolcen, the ugly French Look-a-like of Diablo 3. I have played through the whole story until end game and here is what I think about it:

Cons:
The game manages to be creatively offensive in how it steals just about everything from some other place and tries to save face by doing a mish-mash of several things in hopes that you won't notice.
- Level design is a mish-mash of D3, wandering into lower levels of a hell like place? Only to fight a she-demon which turns into Mephisto a la D3 style? Enjoy running through deserts with bugs shooting stuff at you? Or even entering a golden heaven where the powers of darkness are fighting the powers of light? But the blatant copying of Diablo himself is just laughable.
- Story line is rather predictable but what takes you out of the mood is the dialogue. Not that the voice-acting is bad, it's just that the writers are tonally terrible. It tries to have a fantasy/medieval tone to it, but then mixes it with modern snarky comments like "fine, whatever, i'll play it cool" type of stuff which just doesn't blend in when Angels are fighting Demons. Oh and you'll never hear "daughter, brother, father" as much as in this game "yes brothers, yes sister, we shall prevail. Like whatever". Find a tone and stick to it.
- The character design resembles something out of late 1990 Warhammer Chaos Knights. Mega clunky armors which have no functionality and swords that are broad because graphics back in the days couldn't handle detailed animations. It's a creatively odd choice, and not executed very well.
- Bugs bugs bugs, I had to fight the end boss 10 times because of a bug where he froze and I had to restart the whole game to finish him. It's not done yet and I have no major issues with the bugs other that they are slightly annoying and just be aware that the game is far from complete.

Pros.
- What makes this game stand out is the end game. This is where Wolcen brings its own creative ideas into play and without spoiling anything it's design to give you enough incentives to want to continue playing.

If you enjoy playing D3 you will most likely enjoy playing this watered down version of it. Just know this going in that it's almost offensively bad when you look at the entire game design if you start comparing it to other games.

So hope you enjoyed this review and feel free to comment on what you think.
