skull_bearerSo after being burned by Dragon Age I've been away from gaming for a while, but I heard good things about this game, and it was on offer at Steam, so hey.
So I got it, booted it up and was very puzzled when it became clear I would be playing Elric of Melnibone. I mean, seriously, white hair, white skin, yellow-orange eyes (but hey I can work with that, he shouldn't have been white-skinned in the first place), takes drugs to fight, looks all moody and serious... yeah, that's my Elric. Loved him to bits since I was fifteen.
So hey, hi Elric, long time no see, I hope you find playing with me to be as fun as Mirek did with Mass Effect. It's also just as well because this game apparently has a fair bit of sex content and Elric is one of the few characters I have who is definitely straight, and not above jumping in the sack. It also means I have to play the game of max difficulty because he's Elric.
Should be fun, once I get past the endless cutscenes at the beginnign and actually, you know, play. Seriously game, the keyboard and mouse are here for a reason, and while your graphics are lovely I'd like to be able to run Elric into walls for a while.
