Khoi Tran's review: Eternity Warriors 2
So, I am no expert when it comes to what makes a good game and what makes a game fun to play. But sometimes, a game that looks like dung can sometimes be a good game. And Eternity Warriors 2 is one of them. This game was one of my childhood favs, and is one I always want to come back and play again. The gamestyle, the mood, the bosses: They are what make this a good game.

So, let's see where this game fits my rankings in my game folder

=Graphics=

Of the negatives of this game, this is the biggest one. And that justs shows how much I love this game. Graphic wise: I would say it is a lot like Naval Frontline: a bunch of simple 3D shapes with patterns on them to make it look realistic. You can clearly see it. And it is the one thing I don't really like about this game. It just makes the scene, monsters and the hero really bad looking.

That being said, the flame and light effects are pretty decent, and you probably won't really care about this too much because you are trying to fight of the monsters. I can stand bad graphics so long as it is made up in other areas. And if I can like Naval Frontline and Battleship Craft, despite their butt-ugly graphics, then Eternity Warriors 2 is bearable.

=Controls=

This game is basically an action hand-to-hand combat game played with a joystick. And that is fine, it makes the game playable. In a Eternity Warriors 2, there are two main controls: one to control where your hero moves, the other controls how you attack. You can attack and move at the same time, meaning you will often be attacking and advancing against waves very often. You also have special attacks that allow you to deal extra damage to your enemies or defending against their attacks.

This is what makes it so much. The feel and pressure of trying to defend against multiple enemies is one that I for on love. It makes you get into the game and ignore for the most part the bad graphics of the game.

=Game play=

In Eternity Warriors 2, you have to beat a number of floors in order to gain EXP and level up, increasing your health and allowing you to unlock new levels and equipment.

There are 3 types of levels: normal floors involve you to move around the map and fight monsters along the way. At the end of each floor, you will have to fight a number of bosses before you can win and unlock the next floor.

The Lairs are what I call Survival type levels. You have to try and survive a number of waves, most consisting of a bunch of minor monsters and some bosses. These levels give the most loot and EXP, but are much harder to finish. Players who know the game only

Mega Boss levels either feature waves of boss level monsters coming towards you in an area with poison and spikes everywhere, or one super boss dragon. These levels are the most difficult levels, so advance players only. Or wallet warriors that just buy their way through games.

All types of levels have two modes: normal and hard. I don't think I have to explain...but I will tell you that hard levels give more loot and EXP.

The variety of levels is another reason that I play this game a lot. There is so much to do, so if you get bored with one mode, you can always go onto another level. This way I am never really bored. Especially with the Lair levels.

=Monsters=

I will keep this as brief as possible. The monsters in this game are as varied as they are mostly weak. And by that, I really mean some levels have hoards of very tough monsters.

There are 3 types of monsters. The first are the meleers. These are the most common. They simply attack you at close range, where you can just simply wait for them to come and then kill them. They lack in individual strength, but they can sort of make up for that in numbers.

There are also rangers, monsters that attack at a range. They vary from weak to sort of tough. Mostly there are a noticeable threat and can prove to be a nuisance.

Then there are the bosses, which range from tough to really tough. Some bosses are just glorified normal monsters with extra damage and health. Some are monsters that are very unique and can put up a good fight. A few of them are ones that are equal to your hero himself. These bosses are deadly and very hard to kill. So I will leave it at that.

A good action game for me is one that can bring a challenge yet still be fun. And the amount of monsters in Eternity Warriors 2 is something to come back for. They can be tough. They can be fodder. But all are what makes the game what it is.

=Equipment=

There are a lot of weapons and armour to choose in this game. Mostly you will have to earn it through completing levels. But you can also buy very powerful weapons for expensive amounts of gems. Not something that is out of the normal, since most games I know do that anyway.

You can also upgrade these weapons with elements found completing levels and loot. Each time you upgrade, there is a chance that the weapon won't improve, and you just wasted a bunch of your stuff. The higher the upgrade, the better chance it will fail. So be prepare to fail a lot.

Right, on to the...

=Conclusion=

All in all, I have you this to say: if you can stand the bad graphics, you will like this game.

I could tell you more about this game, but I will let you decide on what to do.
