GB Feature: Majesty 2 Review

The original Majesty had a reasonable number of role-playing elements injected into it, so we took Paradox and 1C: Ino-Co’s sequel for a spin to see how it compares. A snip:

On the plus side, the game engine works much better now. The move from 2D to 3D was a success, and battles are colorful and fun to watch. The interface received a major facelift, including build queues, a pause button, and hero portraits (which allow you to easily select and examine your heroes). Ino-Co also added some nice features, like the ability to form parties of up to four heroes (so your wizards don’t repeatedly get themselves killed), and a (lord) system, which allows you to keep some heroes with you between missions. And perhaps best of all, Ino-Co brought back George Ledoux to play your royal advisor. His voice acting was one of the highlights of Majesty, and he does another good job with Majesty 2.
