  • Completely unbalanced for solo play
  • Lack of online coop for this kind of game is almost unforgivable

  • Camera is very difficult to control while moving
  • Making battles harder than they should be

  • But while this aspect might be up there with Capcom’s seminal series, overcomplication elsewhere means this might just take things one step too far for many players, perhaps most importantly a step too far from something that many are already unwilling...

  • Abstract:  In Lord of Arcana il senso di distacco ci coglie fin dall'inizio, giusto il tempo che serve per dare un volto al protagonista e scegliere quale delle solite pettinature manga rifilargli. Poi inizia a dipanarsi la storia: chi l'avrebbe mai detto, il nostro...

  • Hübsche Grafik, Soundeffekte, sowie musikalische Untermalung gelungen, Viel Equipment, Einfallsreiche Monstergestaltung, Fulminante Bossfights, MehrspielerModus bietet einige Stunden Spaß ..
  • EinzelspielerModus dafür gerade mal 6 8 Stunden, Story geht irgendwie unter, Aufträge sind lahm, Verkorkste Kamera, zu wenig Innovation, eintönige Kämpfe
  • Im Grunde genommen macht Lord Of Arcana nicht allzu viel falsch, allerdings ebenso wenig wirklich richtig. Das Spielprinzip ist keine exakte Monster Hunter-Kopie und hat durchaus seinen eigenen Charme. Auf der anderen Seite kann Lord Of Arcana auch nu...

  • Für „Monster Hunter“Fans, Sammelwut, Viele Missionen, Kurzweilig, RollenspielElemente mit viel Action, Story, ArenaKämpfe, Waffenund Ausrüstungserzeugung
  • Balancing, Viel Text, JapanoFlair kommt im Westen an?, Kamera nervt etwas, Wie wird Abwechslung umgesetzt?
  • ““ gefällt mir schon sehr gut – aber es bleiben einige Felder bis zum Release offen: Wie abwechslungsreich ist das Spiel letztlich? Wird das Balancing überarbeitet – vor allem am Anfang ist das Spiel teilweise sehr knackig? Und schließlich wäre da noch...

  • Ein Hack and Slay Game ohne viel Tiefgang mit schön gestalteter Grafik und annehmbarem Sound. Die Steuerung scheint etwas verbesserungswürdig und die ersten Endgegner überfordern den ungeübten Anfänger. Abgerundet wird das Ganze durch einen Multiplay...

  • Abstract:  Lord of Arcana är Square Enix tillskott till den där nischade delen japanska rollspel som på senare tid kommit att domineras av Monster Hunter-spelen, där mindre fokus ligger på handlingen och mer på dödandet av mängder med olika monster och andra kreatur...
