Loved and Hated Styx:Master of Shadows the most. Loved basically everything of it, except for the final boss fight. That sucked so I hard I didn't give the sequel a chance.
besides that Werewolf game, i ve played them all as well. But Styx has a special place in my heart. Still looks awesome in my eyes. also the AArklash /Contagion games? the universe was interesting
I completed Confrontation and was satisfied. Unresponsive control is associated with the inability to cancel an action once it has started. Moreover, the beginning of the action does not mean the beginning of the animation, which further aggravates the visual feeling of inhibition. This has been fixed in Aarklash: Legacy. The plot is acceptable and typical for similar stories in the dark fantasy genre. The same can be said about the musical accompaniment. The lack of cinematic cutscenes and conversations between characters is due to the low cost of production. But the tactical component and the hero progression system are done well. P.S. Thanks for this collection. Could you create a separate playlist on the channel for videos about games from specific studios?
Im glad someone finally cover about Cyanide games. Styx game deserve a lot of recognition, its a solid stealth game like Thief and a little bit of Tenchu. Funny enough, Styx is what recent Gollum game wanted to be but failed miserably.
Love double A rpg games, reminds me of the good old days trying to play Way of The Samurai 2 even though I understood jack in neither English nor Japanese
The Game of Thrones game is cool in my opinion. I really liked the story and the two Characters you play. Even a low budget game like this had a solid german voice acting which is a plus point for me too.
You have to say, these guys NEVER took the easy way. They might not always have succeeded with flying colors, but they always tried new things, always went that extra mile, and did create some memorable games!
Thumbs up to cyanide keeping the torch of AA development alight. If anything, we need more creative and more experimental games that are not 2d indie pixel stuff. Considering how sterile and uniform AAA became.
Huge recommendation I would really like to see what your view on Overlord, Overlord raising hell, Overlord 2 and Overlord Dark legends They are basically Pikmin but you play Sauron and your in Fable. People either are in love with them or find them mid
Hell yeah! Always love seein Styx get some coverage. That Master of Shadows game was fantastic. Just sooo much replay value & the gameplay's some of the most immersive hardcore stealth/climbing action I've ever seen. Unlike other titles that over emphasize what you can or can't climb on or interact with. Great stuff.
The Styx games are awesome and still hold up. I always wish there were more games like Of Orcs and Men that let you play from the perspective of trope RPG bad guys/monsters.
I absolutely love your channel and videos you have reignited my two decades old passion for gaming, which has been in decline because of the shit going on in the industry rn. Keep up the good work brother
The real standouts are the Styx games. The writing is pretty lame (and there's some recycled stuff), but they're rare examples of pure stealth games with rock-solid gameplay and massive, well-designed levels for you to explore and stealth around in. Good stuff, I wish they'd do another one of these.
Arklash was a super solid game. Definitely for people who love the combat style as that is implemented great. And the characters are super interesting, they do flip stereotypes, like a healer who looks like a pure combat unit etc, subverting expectations. Very enjoyable. Also played Loki back in the day :D
If you are tired of overbloated RPGs this is still a breath of fresh air. It stripped away all that BS and its simply solid combat with all systems simplified. Still one of my favorites.
@@me36391 It stripped away everything that makes an RPG an RPG and made it a RTWP “action” game. Which is fine, but that just means RPGs aren’t for you 😂
that Game of Thrones RPG is one of the best I've ever played. and, I don't watch the show or read the books--I only tried it because it got such horrible reviews and they spent so long making it. glad I bought it.

Thanks for taking a look at Confrontation. I wasn't sure about it considering the general consensus being so negative, but as I really enjoyed Aarklash Legacy it was still on the list. Aarklash Legacy did remind me quite a bit of Dota, mostly insofar as the hero skills are designed as sets that interact with the skill sets of both allies and enemies. They seem much more impactful and easier to understand than what a lot of modern RGPs and ARPGs often have on offer. The latter are usually way too much in love with many, many small numbers and percentages, pretending to depth when only complicating things. In the end it's just so many small numbers getting added onto the pile, resulting in one big number in the end. That may always be the result, but sacrificing clarity for granularity often just doesn't seem worth it.
I really dig your perspectives on both well-known and obscure RPG's. I see many of these types of games on the shelf or in digital storefronts, and I am always curious, so I am glad to see your keen analytical lens in action on them. It's inspired me to take a chance on some now and then. You never know what might "click" after all.
Learn about this two studios from Game of Thrones and Of Orcs and Men, since then became kind of a fan and fallowed what they are doing. It's funny that the author noticed this parallel between the spiders and cyanide too, they are very similar in my brain, I like the spiders more, thanks to the progress that they have achieved now in a greedfall, but the cyanides also have cool games, what I like in such b-class RPGs is that that they allow you to turn on the fantasy to imagine how it would be better, kind of like a book, imagine better graphics story and such. And in general, cool big triple-A RPGs could be too big, for example, I often started Skyrim, but I abandoned it because of the variety of possibilities, it began to seem too large-scale for me, and such games as spiders and cyanide in general is usually shorter, and and I complete them more often.
The only game I've played from this list is Game of Thrones. And to be honest, I'm really glad I played it! Sure, the combat is really bad, BUT the story is GREAT! I still remember most of the characters, the main villain, the crazy but clever plot twists, all the endings and even though I played it only once, it stuck with me even after all these years. Ask me about characters from the last Assassin's Creed I played, and my mind would go blank. But the Game of Thrones game, from a story perspective, was really amazing and unique! You dont need to be fan of GoT to enjoy it. If you like great stories and medieval settings, and don't mind the terrible combat (which you can somewhat skip at the easiest difficulty), then I highly recommend it! Btw, Mors is pretty badass character!
@@KnightsPathGame I thought they were fairly shallow surface level. I mean liked it but it wasn't what i expected. Not after playing the Witcher games.
@@KnightsPathGame Not really, Cyberpunk is definitely on the same level. Also why the modern AC games specifically. The better comparisons are more the older AC games. Like AC2, Brotherhood, Liberation, Rogue, Syndicate, Odyssey. Those are the ones with the barebones story telling.
Nice timing, I have heard about Styx recently for the 1st time in years because of Gollum : 'should have been like Styx" or something like that usually. From what I've read, Werewolf doesn't even use its setting well which is one thing that could have saved it like the Game of thrones one - with what happened to Bloodlines 2 I guess the World of darkness is doomed in video game format :(
I thought Cyanide would have been a better choice to develop LOTR Gollum. I feel just the aesthetic of Styx would have carried over somewhat, and both characters are both weird little guys similar in height. But they went with Daedalic for whatever reason 😅
Aarklash Legacy was the biggest surprise. It's instantly understandable, the systems interact really well, and has a well paced progression. Even the writing got a chuckle out of me. Was not expecting in a game I got for 90% off. All fans of real-time-with-pause RPGs should play it
I completely agree. The only issue I had with it is that the story mostly went away in the second half and once the last set of enemy types arrived it started to get repetitive. Still the first 10-15 hours or so were quite enjoyable and the rest was still playable enough, though from what I remember the difficulty started to fall off a bit too much in the last 5-10 hours.
I remember Loki, another "Diablo killer" that failed. They said that you needed to play every class to learn the whole story. Couldn't even finish it once with OP class (egyptian mage), it got really repetitive in the sameish, simple maps. Another one was Legend - Hand of God, same failed "DIablo killer". Their Styx games are cool, much better than Thief4 by a long shot.
I have 3 games from Cyanide (still haven't played them) that i bought last Christmas for like 3€: Of Orcs and Men Aarklash Legacy Styx: Master Of Shadows
"raid is a free to play game, that in order to progress you need to be spending at least 2k a month" is the best description. other than that, another great video C4G. keep em coming!!!
Great, I'm actually playing Titan Quest as I'm listening to the video and one of the first comments tells something about playing Titan Quest too long. 😀
If you plan to continue this series covering games from one developer I'd suggest Deck13 who made: Venetica, Lords of the Fallen (2014), The Surge 1+2 and later this year also Atlas Fallen.
I have heard of Loki. Even more so, I have a physical copy of it. I have some fond memories of it. Like figuring out how to use skills and sharing this discovery with friends.
In Werewolf: the apocalypse all I did was upgrade the berserker mode to the point I constantly was able to get and everytime it activated it would just enter bullet time. Making the combat a cake walk
Gledam te vec par godina i tek sam sad izvalio da si nas jer sam isti taj Screenfun i ja citao... Cestitam na dosadasnjem uspehu kanala i sve najbolje :)
Aarklash feels more like a never ending MOBA. My main complain with the game was the difficulty settings, easy and normal are too easy and hard is too hard, no middle ground here. Of Orcs and Men has uninteresting and uninvited writing at the start of the game, I never finished it. Styx games have a special place near thief and thief deadly shadows even though stealth games isn't my niche. Oh and Loki's main problem is the way that forces you to suffer the same thing, again and again, with all characters. in case to unlock the true ending. Other games with good output, Call of Cthulhu and Space Hulk tactics.
I remember Loki, I was actually hyped after it was promoted (at least here in Germany) as a more grittier TitanQuest. I loved TQ and needed fresh meat, but was really shocked, when the game arrived. At first I thought my PC can´t handle it, but until today I have never been able to get it running smoothly even on nowadays High-End systems 😅
Bless you, C4G, but you seem to enjoy that most people are godawful or at the very least think they're "not that bad...". I do too, sometimes but I gave up on Gothic 3. The last time I attempted it was back in 2012 or so. Can't be arsed to dig it up again after all these years even with your latest fixes and praises (related to another video). Anyway, I appreciate your videos a lot. Keep up the great work, dude!
Gamw of Thrones was really great. Im a big fan of AA games i think rn my favorite studio is Spiders and they seem to keep getting better with each game
For Werewolf, playing it on the hardest difficulty at least forced me to use my abilities and some bosses were tough, otherwise I would have been bored. As for the story, it was your typical Werewolf The Apocalypse type of story against an evil polluting corporation, saving spirits of nature and personal loss. I had fun playing it.
@@Baraz_Red I mean congrats if you somehow played through the entire game w zero glitches but based on how my playthrough went I find that to be impossible I ran into 10+ glitches and bugs and they weren't small ones either
I TRIED playing Loki back when it came out and it was ok…until it bugged out and reset my character to level 1 with no gear when I was still about 3/4 through the game.
Arkay getting mad is not random, he gains rage quivkly when he is in aggressive stance, and loses ot when in defensive stance. You are supposed to switch between them if you wanna avoid him raging
In my opinion Stix Shards Of Darkness is the best Cyanide game since its pretty good wich is alot since their games are all either mid wich is fine but eh or kinda garbage like they are kinda bad BUT still have somewhat a good in them idk, great video im happy someone did a video about all of their games since i really loved the Styx games.
Aarklash is really good game, it's kinda "basic", but it does great what developer wants to achieve with it. Gameplay and all mechanics works just perfectly. I am huge fan of isometric, tactic rpgs like f.e. Pillars of Eternity, and I must say Aarklash have the best real time team based fighting mechanics I have ever seen. Very clear to see whats going on, no rng mechanics, fun and creative abilities, just perfect. I wish to see a bigger RPG game with that fighting mechanics
Have you ever played Champions of Norrath and CoN: Return to Arms?? They're Diablo-like and my gosh they're nostalgic! Grew up playing both with my brother on a dusty PS2
i loved Loki heroes of mythology, the gameplay is rigid and buggy but the story was good, the story progressed when you play throught each of the difficulties.
I liked Game of Thrones. Played like Dragon Age: Origins and I thought it had a good story. Just bought Werewolf on XBOX for $5. I figure it should be worth at least that.
Werewolf the apocalypse didn't go well for me I like the styx games Werewolf the apocalypse was kinda a let down I tried to like it but to much holding it back feels inconsistent it's repetitive it has enough variety but some enemies can be frustrating in general aside from difficulty don't get me wrong styx games are by no means perfect but still better
Its also unfinished and needed more time before release I tried to look past this considering it came out during the pandemic and they are a smaller group but what I can't look past is a update to fix the bugs/glitches it needs updated/fixed bad
@@Gems56I enjoyed it. It was a fun game for what it was. For one we don't get many games with this type of concept and it's always good fun to rampage against enemies and when you play on hard more it actually provides a decent challenge. The story is decent nothing ground breaking but I'm fine with that as It provides a decent backdrop for the gameplay.
It is stupid but i have exactly the same reason why i know LOKI)) in my childhood i've played a lot of TQ and wanted to find something similar and so i found LOKI in a cheapest store near my house))
I don't know why, but I own at least 2, maybe more of their games. Of Orcs and men and one of the Stix games. Stix wasn't terrible, but it just wasn't a game for me, and it was somewhat sloppily made, so I've never finished either of them and I very much prefer to just see them summarised in a video.
Good god, I cannot believe someone else played Loki! That game was the trashiest aRPG I've ever played and I've played quite a lot including Wolves of Midgar and Dawn of Magic. And also yeah, Aarklash Legacy is the best! My take on it is that they basically took everything that makes a MOBA combat system engaging and integrated it into a cRPG - every character has the 4 skills that are really unique, the positioning really matters, everyone dies extremely fast and almost everything is a skillshot including the healing.

As for the story, it was your typical Werewolf The Apocalypse type of story against an evil polluting corporation, saving spirits of nature and personal loss. I had fun playing it.
With the corporation being more a demonic death cult like the UAC of DOOM.
@@Gems56 I 100% that game about one month ago and had zero bugs.
@@Baraz_Red it's literally in most the reviews of the game they will tell you it's a unfinished game
@@Baraz_Red I mean congrats if you somehow played through the entire game w zero glitches but based on how my playthrough went I find that to be impossible I ran into 10+ glitches and bugs and they weren't small ones either
@@Gems56 My point is maybe you played it a year or more ago.
Thanks for reminding me about Styx series, I need to wash my brain afer Gollum
I TRIED playing Loki back when it came out and it was ok…until it bugged out and reset my character to level 1 with no gear when I was still about 3/4 through the game.
Amazing! Been waiting for this
Tried all of em except Orcs and Men -- most of em I gave up on
I played Loki. It was actually fine game. I finished all three characters start.
Styx deserves more credit in the gaming community hopefully they will make a 3rd game
Arkay getting mad is not random, he gains rage quivkly when he is in aggressive stance, and loses ot when in defensive stance. You are supposed to switch between them if you wanna avoid him raging
In my opinion Stix Shards Of Darkness is the best Cyanide game since its pretty good wich is alot since their games are all either mid wich is fine but eh or kinda garbage like they are kinda bad BUT still have somewhat a good in them idk, great video im happy someone did a video about all of their games since i really loved the Styx games.
yooo LOKI i remember playing that wayyy back, had alot of fun lol
19:40 whenever I hear Gothic music I prick up ears😅
Werewolf is the reason we got redesign of Bloodlines 2 😅
nice video bro 💗
Aarklash is really good game, it's kinda "basic", but it does great what developer wants to achieve with it. Gameplay and all mechanics works just perfectly. I am huge fan of isometric, tactic rpgs like f.e. Pillars of Eternity, and I must say Aarklash have the best real time team based fighting mechanics I have ever seen. Very clear to see whats going on, no rng mechanics, fun and creative abilities, just perfect.
I wish to see a bigger RPG game with that fighting mechanics
dosnt the tattoo in styx indicate if you are hidden in shadows? could be wrong tho
Loki ah what a nostalgia trip
Have you ever played Champions of Norrath and CoN: Return to Arms?? They're Diablo-like and my gosh they're nostalgic! Grew up playing both with my brother on a dusty PS2
i loved Loki heroes of mythology, the gameplay is rigid and buggy but the story was good, the story progressed when you play throught each of the difficulties.
They actually wanted Bethesda to make the Game Of Thrones game, but they declined because of Skyrim.
Well if the company is up and still making games let’s pray more synx games get made
I liked Game of Thrones. Played like Dragon Age: Origins and I thought it had a good story. Just bought Werewolf on XBOX for $5. I figure it should be worth at least that.
Werewolf the apocalypse didn't go well for me I like the styx games Werewolf the apocalypse was kinda a let down I tried to like it but to much holding it back feels inconsistent it's repetitive it has enough variety but some enemies can be frustrating in general aside from difficulty don't get me wrong styx games are by no means perfect but still better
Its also unfinished and needed more time before release I tried to look past this considering it came out during the pandemic and they are a smaller group but what I can't look past is a update to fix the bugs/glitches it needs updated/fixed bad
@@Gems56I haven't encountered the bugs you seen. I've played Werewolf apocalypse more then one time.
@@Gems56I enjoyed it. It was a fun game for what it was. For one we don't get many games with this type of concept and it's always good fun to rampage against enemies and when you play on hard more it actually provides a decent challenge. The story is decent nothing ground breaking but I'm fine with that as It provides a decent backdrop for the gameplay.
There is a game called "Revenant (1999)" would be interesting to see your thoughts about it.
Enjoyed of orcs and men would definitely play a sequel
hey cool video
never heard of (most of) these games
It is stupid but i have exactly the same reason why i know LOKI))
in my childhood i've played a lot of TQ and wanted to find something similar and so i found LOKI in a cheapest store near my house))
keep feeding me games daddy
Have you played Lies of P demo?! This game is very good!!
ScreenFun, voleo sam da ga čitam 🙂
Hvala na flešbeku, brate boomer-e! 😀
I don't know why, but I own at least 2, maybe more of their games. Of Orcs and men and one of the Stix games. Stix wasn't terrible, but it just wasn't a game for me, and it was somewhat sloppily made, so I've never finished either of them and I very much prefer to just see them summarised in a video.
have you tried Return to Krondor? Maybe you covered it already....
Blood Bawl not only game with microtransactions... There are at least 2-3 of it. At least.
If this video taught me anything, then it is that this guy is talking bull****.
Styx fits right in with other great video game mascots.
I had played Loki some time in the 2010s as a teen. I liked it. That's it. Wasn't insane. Wasn't terrible.
Was hoping you would have a look at Cyanide.
Screen fun klasika, mada vecina ih nisu citali vec su ih kopovali samo zbog postera
Svaka čast srećo moja
The yellow jersey for biking is the leaders jersey.
great vid.
i love the french!
Man, shame they didnt nail the werewolf game, but i'll give a try to Styx games, F bloodbowl though
Ooh, big White Wolf fan here, but Werewolf Apocalypse was just baaaad
Good god, I cannot believe someone else played Loki! That game was the trashiest aRPG I've ever played and I've played quite a lot including Wolves of Midgar and Dawn of Magic.
And also yeah, Aarklash Legacy is the best! My take on it is that they basically took everything that makes a MOBA combat system engaging and integrated it into a cRPG - every character has the 4 skills that are really unique, the positioning really matters, everyone dies extremely fast and almost everything is a skillshot including the healing.
