  So this.... this is a essentially a mobile game. A very pretty mobile game to be sure but a mobile game nonetheless... The mechanics of essentially any "state of survival" style mobile MMORPG have been replicated in whole or in part as a "PC" game at PC game pricing. Good lord they even sell a version with extra skill point for $10 USD more! Game areas are tiny and extremely linear (like a mobile game area would be). The interface often just has you picking up materials laying around like a hoover (the way initial stage of mobile games do). You have *timed* resource build-ups you need to harvest manually (sweet jesus?!? on a PC game?????!??!?). Really... timed resource pick ups! SERIOUSLY? Your "character" (which they don't allow you to create) is a meaningless tabula rasa since literally any available dialog choice always works out. You can choose to "romance" your equally meaningless companions even though there is no build up of semblence of sense to the romances. These are "romances" the way weebs and incels think romances work. The combat challenge is almost non-existent. There is an auto-combat option when your group is way over powered (always a great indication that the areas are filled with nonsense mobs and that combat is rudimentary). Sadly the auto-combat doesn't kick in nearly OFTEN ENOUGH as you will routinely be forced to do a very bland TBS "battle" against a mob you will wipe out while your guys take less than 10% damage total. As a 9$ USD mobile game this would be fine. As a full priced PC game though? Save your money.

  I like this game. first impression is very positive, beautiful graphics, effects, sound, gameplay is there. But the more I play the more I find myself feeling that something is off, like the game is there but not quite, superficial complexity with a very simple , linear innards, almost like it is unfinished, like half way through the development they decided to cut things out and stitch it together. Then it hit me. This is a mobile game very well disguised as a AAA PC game. Pros: - Beautiful, graphics, sound design, effects, environments - Combat can be fun - hero and army roster customisation - interesting take on frontline/backline unit abilities Cons: - combat gets very repetitive very soon - feels somewhat grindy - story is ok at best, writing feels low quality - tactical maps feel too small for the number of units you can have - gets boring and repetitive very quickly - fights range from too easy to unfair (if you are fighting monsters of much higher level) , there are only a few challenging, interesting fights so far, the rest I am just trying to power through in hope there will be something better soon If I knew what I know now I would not have bought this game 4/10 (if visuals weren't as good would be 3/10)

  A decent tactic RPG, though not one of the best. May not be the squeal many fans are looking for, but the series will live on. Pros: 1. an excellent combat system based on the combat in Reincarnation, but more complex in a good way. The back-line supporting position is an especially innovative and refreshing add-on to the combat system of Disciples series. 2. Your choice usually matters 3. plenty of call-backs about characters and events from previous games Cons: 1. Slot cap for a party is too high. This may not seem to be a problem at first, but battle between two full parties can be dragging. It is even worse when the game has stunning but dragging attack / skill animations, although you have the option to turn up animation speed. 2. Lack of both growth potential and situational use for most low tier units, which limits the versatility of party set-ups way before the late game. 3. Probably one of the worst intro quest in gaming history, plot-wise. 4. The most Mary Sue story I have seen in recent years... Other thoughts 1. There is no difficulty option right now. Hardcore RPG players may find the current game too easy and system too exploitable. 2. Resource gathering is still STG-like in Liberation, but players don't need to defend their resources like they do in previous games. I personally don't mind the design choice here, but I've heard someone complain about this. 3. Old fans may find some plots and setting in Liberation exciting, because they add more details to the existing lore; however, some fans may find a few of them confusing, or even down right annoying. [spoiler] Like how the developer just conveniently got rid of the whole Mountain Clan... who happen to be all slaughtered by the elves after the Horde did most of the work...[/spoiler] [spoiler] Or somehow Mortis conveniently lose her control on a bunch of Undead...[/spoiler] [spoiler] Are you sure it's Highfather's idea the last time someone was trying to nuke Nevendaar? [/spoiler] [spoiler] The elders says that black dragons rose from Galleon's dead body. Get lost, Izerill. [/spoiler] Overall, Liberation is an RPG worth playing. Just don't expect it to be Disciples 4. Thanks the developer for a different Disciples. This time, a good game, and more importantly a complete one. Thanks again for the developers' effort, to make sure that the series will carry on, one way or another. Just, can we bring back our beloved dwarves? Pretty please?

  I enjoyed the demo version, but the full-game version, not so much. After many hours of play, hoping the game would open up, I found myself wishing I'd played under 2 hours, so I could request a refund. The demo suggests that you have options as a player, in terms of how you deal with this world and its politics, but you don't. It's a grimdark game world in all respects, and every faction you meet shades somewhere between amoral to destructively self-absorbed (a.k.a. "evil"). If that's your thing, you may enjoy this game. Me? I kept thinking of author Dorothy Jones Heydt's famous Eight Deadly Words which can kill any story: I Don't Care What Happens To These People. And I don't. You may love this game, and that's cool. But I regret spending money on it. My opinions only, of course.

  First I tried the demo and I was like :"gosh... the fights are so slow !" and "its me or there is something wrong with the sound?", it feelt like a piano was thrown from a building each time I clicked on something, and , these were my biggest complaints and these complaints are obsolete now, since they got fixed ...so is the game any good? Pros : -As a fan of HoM&M games, I can only appreciate the mechanics of this game that are similar to Heroes in a lot of ways...but it's not a copy, the game has its own mechanics too -As a french player, I have to put a positive review since this game is dubbed in french, and the dialogs are well writen, the humor feels "right", -The graphics and the FX are good, nothing crazy but good Cons : The music and the game art direction are good but somewhat ... generic? or at least not remarkable, but High fantasy setting feels authentic and i'll never get tired of this type of universe The game is too easy for someone that plays this kind of games a lot, there are no difficulty settings I would like to see more rewards for risk-taking in this game like in the HoM&M games ,since I can't stop constantly comparing these games when i play Anyway, this game is not perfect but I want to see more games like this,

  They shouldve stuck to the old Disciples 2 format, which was pretty unique and only matched by the Warlords series (e.g. Warlords IV: Heroes of Etheria). I actually feel bad giving this a "No" as the story and character development is good - plenty of dialogue options and you actually grow attached to the characters - theyre not just some overpowered grunt. But the combat grew stale very quickly - slow animations, repetitive skills on all but your main hero, WAY too easy difficulty for anyone who has every played Heroes, Kings Bounty etc. I couldn't bear to force myself through wave after wave of fights that felt too similar, just to advance the storyline. Maybe i've just been spoilt by the Heroes series, but the legendary Heroes 3 (and to a certain extent 5) remains the benchmark to beat, even after all these years.

  I started out really liking this game, but I couldn't bring myself to finish it. I got to level 55 or so and by that point I had already felt like I was slogging along for the previous 15 levels. I just got bored. Combat just gets too repetitive with some utterly game breaking balance issues. 9 times out of ten in a fight where the objective is to kill a named enemy, I can win before they even move because I just spec'd for high crit. With 75% crit chance and ranged judgment attack on main character, plus a few devastating ranged attackers, it's doing 4k+ damage to a named enemy and slaughtering them immediately winning the fight is just too easy. Pros: Voiceover is good but some conversations just feel extremely contrived Story is decent but sidequests and companion quests are generic and don't offer much depth Gear and upgrade system has variety Cons: Combat becomes repetitive and unoriginal quickly Overall game just feels like it drags on Balance issues ensue once you figure out that there are just some troops that are super imba as well as skill trees and abilities that are overpowered This isn't a bad game and I could honestly forgive the balance issues if it was just a shorter storyline. I absolutely cannot imagine replaying this game 4 more times to unlock all the endings.

  Bullet points: (-) - It's ugly. Not "gouge my eyes out" ugly, but the game's budget clearly can't support the chosen art style. The cutscenes look embarrassing, the oddly animated portraits add little. They should have opted for 2D art if they couldn't do proper animations. - After an hour of play, the game stopped saving (all saves were failed), and I lost all my following progress. (=) - I have no nostalgia for the original series, and I feel that Liberation stands firmly as its own game. - The battles are similar-ish, but engaging enough. (+) + The writing, voice acting, and reactivity are surprisingly good. Or maybe my expectations were too low? I like how the game doesn't drown you in info, offering relevant bits instead. And the setting itself is compelling for a fantasy story. Alas, the saving fail makes me ragequit for now. I expect to return to this game at a later point. Maybe.

  Disciples II was my favourite game when I was a kid, and I absolutely loved playing with numbers, trying different builds and "rasing" my initiates into vampires, liches and deaths. It was fun, satisfying, crunchy. Then there was Disciples III which was so bad and buggy that I don't even want to talk about it. Now this. This is waaaay better than Disciples III, but is still pretty bad. It's almost ok, but not almost good. Here is why: 1) The feel of the game. For me the main feel of the game of Disciples was growing your units over the tree. Here you kind of have a similar system... But don't worry if someone dies - you can always just hire the next tier unit. Moreover, your veteran zombie who fought 100 battles isn't worth anything - you can't upgrade them to the next tier. Just buy the next tier unit and upgrade with gold and steel to the max level. This completely ruins the feel of unit development. D2 was the deepest unit-development game of that time, and DL is more shallow than pretty much anything that has any unit development. 2) Game mechanics. It was my favourite part in D2, but here in DL it is very weird. First of all, most of the shown numbers are boring and the same for most same-tier units. E.g. almost all tier-2 warriors have the same HP and power. But, they have all different skills, which is almost cool, except unless you try each of them and use pen and paper (or spreadsheet) to calculate them - you won't know the power of each strike. Different units with the same stats for power deal different damage, but nothing nowhere says how much damage they deal. Even just saying 75% of power, 115% of power etc. - would be super helpful. But alas. If you are not into spreadsheers and testing - sorry. If you are - choose another game, where number crunching is funnier and less confusing :) Yet, despite being somewhat chaotic, battles become quite repetitive and boring, because due to poor unit development - almost nothing changes from battle to battle. 3) And yep, since it is an "RPG" now, I have to say about this part as well. First of all, it is as linear and banal as it gets. Narrative is awful. All the role-playing feels completely fake and more of a filler than a core. Even strategies nowadays usually make better stories and better roleplaying, yet this game calls itself RPG. Sad. The only somewhat good part is aesthetics and lore - although it also feels super outdated, it is still rahter appealing - as long as you skip all the childish dialogues which completely ruin the feel. Yet, compated to D3 it is at least playable. But I couldn't force myself to finish it.
