Orcs Must Die! 2
Making a new friend in Orcs Must Die! 2
by David Hinkle on Apr 7th 2012 10:30PM When we were picking our Best of the Rest games for 2011, I commented that all I wanted in an Orcs Must Die! sequel was multiplayer. It was at the top of everyone's request list, and Orcs Must Die! 2 delivers. Orcs Must Die! 2 is more than just the original game with co-op. It's a refined experience, improved in just about every conceivable way. A greater variety of enemies with more unique sub-sets have been added, along with new traps to deploy, and a completely revamped skull system (enemies sometimes drop them now). The addition of co-op means you often deal with more enemies and feel more pressure during each wave. Utilizing the two protagonists with their differing abilities and trap-sets in a strategic way is paramount to victory. Yes, each character has access to a specific set of traps exclusive to them. It helps each stand out beyond their other major differentiation: the War Mage -- featured in the first game -- has lots of health and little mana, while the Sorceress is the complete opposite. The beauty of the original Orcs Must Die! was not only that it appealed to tower defense fans, but even to those people who despise the genre. The latter group was sated through active gameplay -- as the War Mage, you could take on enemies directly with your crossbow while traps laid waste to the horde at large. The sequel replaces his previous weapon with a new scattergun, giving the War Mage greater stopping power at the cost of precision over long distances. The Sorceress can spend time summoning skeletons and other allies to occupy the horde while the War Mage unloads shot after shot, making for an interesting co-op dynamic. With an alternate fire function, the War Mage can turn his gun into a grenade launcher, which is entirely necessary for dispersing crowds. Outside of the variety and volume of enemies we had to deal with in each wave, and the inclusion of a co-op partner, Orcs Must Die! 2 played a lot like its predecessor. For me, that's far from being a bad thing. 個人預計應該會有XBLA版,同上集一樣。
