Hi all,

This game seems to be available now from EB Games. I wonder how difficult the combat will be. It looks interesting from the trailer.

Is this video showing battle the same that you linked to? I'm curious about the difficulty as well - it sounds like an interesting game. Pretty cursor anyway.

Here are some links to a few previews.

Yes Nickie it is the same trailer. From the previews (thank you) it appears that it will be similar to Diablo in the hack and slash department. What remains to be seen is the difficulty and the save system. Maybe there will be a decent review once people have actually played it. I always hate to be one of the first, I would rather hear from others who have played it.

Nickie-

Just love the looks of this game, do you think it is all point and click, sure did like it????

Thanks

maggie :summer:

Maggie it is definitely point and click and it seems to be a pretty decent game. I just downloaded the demo and have been playing for a while. The combat is just click on the enemy and you hit them you also have a pixie to go with you and give you advice. There are also stones that you can transport back and forth and the pixie told me that if I die I'll be revived at the last stone I clicked on. Fortunately, I haven't died yet so the combat may be something I can handle.

The problem with the download though is that it's 1.75 gig and it took me about 4 hours with DSL.

The demo is also available here.

I saw that it is available at interactCD now so I might just get it.

Oldman-

Thanks so much for the information, I have been wanting to buy this, now I can thanks to you. The Demo Link will not open at all.

Take care

maggie

I went to the second Link for the Demo, I have High Speed Cable and it will take 5 1/2 hours, no thanks. I will just buy the game............... That is a long time for a download, have not seen that since I had dial up.

Hmm, did you try both links? If you can't get to either you can just go to www.gamespot.com and then search for legend the hand of god and you'll find the demo link that way.

I'm also hoping to run into her during the game.

Um...nice hair!

HI-

The second link opened and it was the long wait for download, so I have just ordered it from Amazon, no shipping charges, which is nice.
You have a wonderful eye for beauty, true beauty. I hope there is a really good looking guy like Geralt from The Witcher.
I will let you know when I get my game and tell you how it is, I will most likely start a thread needing helppppppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hugs

Ok, so someone really needs to step in and inform "Life" that I am seriously behind in my RPG playing and that I really really need more time to save the world

Well I've gone as far as I can with the demo so I ordered the game from InteractCD. I've played another game that is almost like this but I can't remember the name. When you save and load it takes you back to the most recent rune stone you've activated. You can teleport between all stones and you can collect stones to teleport from anyplace. If you die you're taken back to the last stone you activated. Like I said there was another game I played that had the same save system but I can't remember what it was now.

Anyway you pick up side quests along the way heading towards your main quest like most rpg's. You choose two paths and level up towards those. I chose warrior and magic so I became a battle mage. I don't remember all the paths but there is an evil path.

I've done all I can on this demo so will now have to wait for the real thing to come along.

This game will fill my RPG time whilst waiting for Witcher Enhanced and/or Sacred II whichever comes first.

I am waiting for The Witcher Enhanced also, did you preorder the game or are you going to download it? I am looking forward to the new game, it should be good.

Thanks

maggie

Does anyone know the specs for the game as far as a pc, a friend asked me. I have looked and cannot find them. Thanks

Here are the stats from the official site:
Windows XP/Vista
Pentium 4 2.0 GHz
1GB RAM
5 GB Hard Disk Space
Nvidia GeForce 6600/ATI Radeon X1650 with 256 MB Video RAM
DirectX compatible sound Card
DVD-ROM Drive

Also I just remembered which game this save system and style of play reminded me of. It is Titan Quest.

John-

Thanks so much, will give my friend this information , I am fine, but she is not sure.

Thanks again

maggie

The posts on TQ were removed to a new thread to make subject searching easier. Thanks!

Bought the game from Walmart yesterday. Loaded it up and I'm playing. Does anyone know if this game has a hint book or online hints?

Catsmom, I googled but came up with Nada.

Well my Legend Hand of God came in and I have played it for a while and gotten to level 6. It is as I expected from playing the demo. A like it a little better than Titan Quest but am dying a little more often. The good news is that when you die you just go back to your most recent portal you've activated. (I think I already mentioned that you can teleport between portals). The bad news is that every time you save and load again you also go back to the most recently activated portal. In other words there are no saves.

Everything is done with the mouse. You right click to use weapon open things and talk. You assign your right mouse button to either use magic or perform whatever skills you have available. You earn those skills/magic by a level up tree.

I am a Battle Mage again as I was in the demo.

You also need certain skills or levels to use different pieces of equipment as with most games of this type.

May I say

I like my saves--I really must have my saves.

I'm glad you are having fun though

Wasn't Dungeon Siege 2 like that? That's how I remember it anyway. I sure like where you can save at will better.

catsmom-

Have you looked at Prima Game Guides to see if there is one?

Good Luck

maggie

Hi Maggie, I will go to best buy and see if they have one yet..Game just crashed on me, something about direct 9c error..so will try to install that from the disc..Pretty good game so far.

There isn't a Prima or a Brady guide for this game. It's pretty new, so your best bet will be to keep an eye on a site like gamebanshee.com for one to appear.

Thanks nickie

catsmom and Nickie

Thanks for letting me know. I just recieved my game, have to go to Tucson tomorrow, so I will wait till Sunday to put it on. I have Direct x 10 on mine, hope there will not be a problem, it is suppose to play on Vista.
Will be nice when a game guide comes out, I am always missing something and generally never find all until I have played through 3 or 4 times. Good thing I like RPG as much as I do.

_________________________________________________________________

I have put the game on and just love it, I like the map, so far it has crashed on me twice, I think it did not like my direct x 10, so put on the 9.0c, then it played fine, then it just crashed and made a funny bleeping sound and I took it out and closed it down. Will fiddle with it Sunday. Must say, Hope they have patches out soon for these problems, but the game is great, I love the guys in green and the big monsters are even better. Finding great armour and other things. I am using a trainer from cheathappens.

thanks

maggie
