![]() ![]() It includes the Northwind Tempest Set, Northwind Medallion, and the show-stopping Brooch of the Warhound!īy the way, who's already ventured back into Aphes and faced the fresh challenges in our new Boss Rush Mode, 'Gauntlet of the Stars'? We'd love to know how you did! Share your boss battle timings with us, and let's see who's the top warrior out there! Well, guess what? We heard you! Introducing the return of the Northwind Legion Gear Pack! We noticed more than a handful of you dropping hints about wanting a certain outfit back. ![]() I'd rather play a dozen of these sorts of games that a so-called bland triple A mega-budget game.We're not done celebrating our one-year milestone just yet! I hope it gets good coverage and sells well. It's a shame the developers couldn't have made these a bit more interesting with some dynamic camera shifts and facial close-ups (even if it would make the lack of lip-syncing obvious). ![]() I suspect this has been done to hide the lack of lip-syncing but it does make the cutscenes just a tad dull to watch. Also, aside from a few cinematics, most of the dialogue sequences and cutscenes play out with a static camera where you can move the camera around and sometimes Hilda as well. If I have any criticisms, it is that the game's opening cutscene is rather dull and doesn't make for a good first impression in my opinion.
