The game has already angered fans of both role-playing games, because this effort took Arkane studios away from making Arx Fatalis 2 and also because this game has very little to do with the Might & Magic franchise, other than using the name. My basic description of Dark Messiah Might and Magic is "Half Life 2 meets Arx Fatalis meets Blade of Darkness." The game is powered by the Half-Life 2 Engine, developed by the same folks who brought us Arx Fatalis and based in the storied Might & Magic universe, and features a visceral melee combat style reminiscent of the brutal action game Blade of Darkness (Severence to some). Our original Dark Messiah review didn't pan out, but Mike Anderson decided to go back take a look at how Arkane's action romp stands the test of time: The Leipzig Games Convention starts next week and we'll have heaps of news on upcoming games - so we have just enough time to catch up on some articles we fell behind on. Your opponents don't have noticeably less health than you, and there's rarely a time when you'll be facing them one at a time. Dark Messiah treads the tricky line of empowering you without ever making you feel superhuman. More importantly, these tactics are all but required if you don't want to die constantly. Men get crushed, all the bloody time, because you're just the kind of curious sadist that Arkane made the game for. A chandelier swings wildly out of control when you cut the rope that was so courageously holding it back. Things that you'd expect to react to a bunch of medieval fantasy dudes duking it out do react to a bunch of medieval fantasy dudes duking it out.Īttic floors, constructed of half-rotten wooden planks placed down by some cowboy carpenter, splinter and snap when put under the pressure of a lobbed crate, taking the three guards you really didn't want to have to deal with down to a sticky end on the floor below. Importantly, though, rather than go down the route of Half-Life 2's physics puzzles, Arkane made a game shot through with that physicality, permeating the entire game world. The similarities between them, few as they are, dwell in the strength of Source: its physics. Released in 2008 by Arkane Studios, of Arx Fatalis and the upcoming Dishonored, Dark Messiah was made in Source, Half-Life 2's engine.
It offers you a world that you can return to over and over and discover a dozen new ways to play with.ĭark Messiah isn't usually the sort of game that gets a retrospective, which makes this article at Eurogamer a little unusual: At the same time, it shares its most important lasting quality. But Dark Messiah offers a very different experience to Dishonored, and this has helped it endure.
Oblivion’s template has been surpassed by Bethesda’s later open-world titles. Even Dishonored's in-combat music is a variation of the score used in Dark Messiah.ĭespite some ropey production, I think Dark Messiah has aged very well indeed, perhaps even better than the game which eclipsed it when it originally released. So much of what made Arkane’s magical murder sim special is built atop of foundations originally laid in this curious chapter in the studio’s history: the multiple ways you can approach combat the game’s creative relationship with physics and the environment first-person sword-fighting that actually works. It’s fascinating to look back at Dark Messiah through the lens of Dishonored.
