TORMENT: TIDES OF NUMENERA

Everything in our world is interconnected and flows out from one another. All vital invented by the ancient Egyptians, the most popular book written hundreds of years ago, and all subjects eventually reduced to a girl in a red cap, which bears his grandmother cakes and a pot of oil. At the heart of the Ninth World are eight (or god knows how) the previous worlds.
Tides of Numenera production inXile really wants to be like the production of Torment Black Isle Studios, swinging the nose of experienced players references: behold, they say, look, look away!
Consumed by doubts after the Tides of Numenera I opened the old foreign review of Planescape: Torment, read the phrase “lack of multiplayer is disappointing,” and I realized that we were left alone with sadness.

What is worth one life? Or what it means. And what does it mean if you have lived it? Or her, and very similar to it. Only better.

Tides of Numenera very much relies on the player’s imagination, but in fact the imagination – such a thing … how shall I say?

Not particularly controlled. Sitting somewhere in California, even when deserved writer, it is very difficult to make a simple CRPG fan on the other side of the world to imagine exactly what you need. For example,

Tides of Numenera’s not for nothing is called «Torment». This bait, fat worm wriggling. Yes, fat (a) ha, you’re waiting for this for a long time.

And waited. Or wait? This is destiny? No, rather it a joke. At the destination of the sword, as they say, two prongs: one of them – Torment, but the second …

In front of me is not necessary tasks specifically write any nonsense, so it seemed tricky, on the contrary – I strongly blame this approach, which is already there a soul twist, sometimes seen in the most Tides of Numenera.

But! It is important to understand that this is not a simple game, it is pointless meticulously disassemble the components of the boring, dry concludes that, they say, turn boevka something as it was so-so, and remained.

Yes, the two-stage moves are “do something, runs a little” look funny and vulgar, but are not they all have some weight when measured game called Torment ? Common sense dictates “no trifles” Sadness whispers “no.”

Tides of Numenera’s not for nothing is called «Torment». This bait, fat worm wriggling.

In fairness, I note that both those fights is actually not here. Of all the artificial terms that Tides of Numenera packed to capacity, “crisis” is probably more appropriate to rest, as the battle are necessarily part of the crisis, but every crisis is devoted to battles.

By and large, the crisis – an episode when the game switches from real-time turn-based mode, and you need something to achieve. Killing enemies, persuading them or doing something else. Yes, blows exchange process does not cause much response, but the very concept of crisis is definitely good.

In this, perhaps, it is one of the main and norovyaschih escape the attention of the player advantages Tides of Numenera: she really tries to surprise, to offer something new.

Honestly, but not always. And not at all. Therefore, the ending of the game made me an indescribable storm of emotions that it would be wrong to characterize the banal mixture of pleasure and disappointment. In the same nine world too there is a flat world scale – good or bad you?

It’s hard to say, but the stream you obviously red! It would be funny as elegantly evade responsibility by placing Tides of Numenera as an estimate of a triangle or a cuboid, but I still try to explain why this game is pleasing and disappointing at the same time.
