Later bosses scale up with more HP and armor, and regular enemies mostly rely on large numbers to offer any amount of challenge, which leads to awkward Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles-style enemy fights in which I would be surrounded by a dozen units while they politely engaged me one at a time-an issue which plagued the first game as well.Īt its best the rhythm of combat can be exhilarating. The arena background art and unit animations look great, but you’re still mostly just fighting humans in small spaces.īy the halfway point in the campaign I saw almost everything the Dealer would throw at me. Attacks can either be blocked or evaded, and you’ll know which to use depending on if the attacking foe glows green or red.Įnemy types are fairly limited and largely unimpressive, from standard barbarians, soldiers, and ghouls to a few interesting things like giant ogres and fire-spewing grenadiers. Each weapon has a built-in special attack that can be activated after a certain number of combo hits, with more powerful weapons capable of stunning multiple enemies or delivering massive blows. Weapons come in multiple styles which are now designed to tackle specific enemy types, such as light weapons against thieves. When you happen upon enemies the strategic card layer shifts into a colorful third-person action brawler. The final battle has a neat twist (and thankfully nothing like the awful QTE slog the first game’s end boss was), but still ultimately came down to a standard combat arena.Ĭombat is unfortunately the least improved aspect of the sequel, despite still being a major focus of many challenges and cards. The finale presents its consequences based on how well you completed your companions’ storylines, kind of like Mass Effect 2. The last few challenges are a gauntlet of dungeon crawls as my team and I infiltrate a palace to embark on a little regicide.
These moments made the world feel much more vibrant and interactive despite how much of it is text. Companions are also woven into other cards’ stories and frequently chime in during BioWare-style cutscenes.

On the card screen he can add an additional die to any dice rolls, which was often the difference between success and failure.
