About this product

Product Information

Ubisoft continues its resurrection of the classic 3DO series with this first-person role-playing release. Dark Messiah: Might and Magic features a campaign that begins 18 years after Heroes of Might and Magic V. Single players take the role of Sareth, to wield both might and magic against orcs, goblins, trolls, dragons, an undead horde, and other minions of the Dark Messiah who threatens the world of Ashan. Built on Valve's Half-Life 2 "Source" game engine, Dark Messiah: Might and Magic aims to offer smooth action in a game world rich with detail.

The game's multiplayer modes support up to 10 players. Along with the obligatory "Deathmatch" and "Team Deathmatch" modes, the multiplayer arena includes a "Crusade" mode that emphasizes teamwork in multi-match competition. In "Crusade," players choose one of five character classes, such as warrior or mage. Throughout the game, there are opportunities to increase characters' skills as they complete battles. After each round, a "dynamic campaign" feature determines the next map's location, as well as the items and skills you can gain between rounds, by analyzing completion statistics from the previous conflict.

"Crusade" mode creates a tug-of-war battle style by moving the next skirmish closer to the stronghold of the last skirmish's loser. When one team wins, the battle is moved away from its stronghold, but if the team loses the next conflict, the following battle moves back to the middle. The game ends when one stronghold is destroyed, or when a team loses all of its tickets. Tickets are a type of death card, and every time a player is killed or loses control of a spawn point, a ticket is taken away. After a campaign is completed, all experience for each character is set back to zero.

Dark Messiah for xbox360
I bought this game because I love dungeon and dragon style games and this one had some really great screen shots. What I didn't like about the game is the way the game play is. You can't see your whole character, all you see is just the hands of them. It would have been nice to have a feature where you have the whole view of what your character looks like. Another thing that bothered me about the game is the writing/dialogue. The writing/dialogue is so small I can barely read it, and I don't know if there is a way to enlarge it. I haven't really played the game a whole lot yet so I really couldn't tell you what I like best about it yet. Overall, so far it is a good game with great graphics. I would recommend renting it through gamefly or a video store before buying.

Average game with a few issues.....
I held off on this game until it had been reviewed thoroughly by many of the more reputable game sites. Having got the game at the new retail price of $29.99 was a good investment since that is all that it is worth. There are a ton of map glitches where your character can get caught up on and many of the character animations are just horrible. Having said that, the game is fun if you can set aside the problems and is definately worth playing. The enemies get very repetitive and the graphics are nothing to write home to mom about but all in all it is an average game. I have played alot of RPG'ish type games and I really cannot compare it to anything I have played in the past. If I had to give you a rough idea I would say a mixture of Two Worlds and Oblivion as in the game play with all of the problems of Two Worlds. If you haven't played Oblivion, pay the extra money and you will be a thousand times more satisfied.Read full review

Dark Messiah
So I'm 25 years old now and felt quite nostalgic about previous RPGs I've played in the past this game in particular. I was around 14 or so when the game originally was released then I found it to be to difficult and a bit buggy and moved onto elderscrolls oblivion. However after buying this game and playing it again it's great I love the character customization the different weapons collectibles in the game as well as the design it's beautiful. Controls can be a bit buggy but over all I would definitely recommend it to any RPG player.

Good game
I beat this game years ago like 3 or 4 times. I got it again bc I thought ai wanted to play it again. It didn't have the same effect. Still it's a pretty good game if you like the game Thief, it's very similar game play.

A Good, But Linear, First-Person RPG
I bought this game because I was looking for something to replace Oblivion once I finished it. This game is definitely a quality game and I would recommend it to people who like first-person RPG style games. The one thing to keep in mind here is that unlike Oblivion, which is a "go anywhere, do anything" sandbox-style RPG, Dark Messiah is a much more linear experience. That's not to say it's not enjoyable, but if you're looking for freedom to explore and do whatever side-quests you like, this might not be the game for you. If you don't mind a linear, story-driven RPG then give it a try! The graphics are good, and the gameplay is fun. All in all it's an enjoyable game.
