Default And the GWEN Reviews Begin...

I think this is the first review for the game so far:

Pretty good score! I'd probably give it the same. If anyone else sees any reviews post 'em here!

I thought the asura looked more like stitch than lilo...

That's a pretty good score, now we just have to decide whether to believe this or the "disappointing" thread(s)

Heh, they fixed up the Lilo thing. Been playing a bit more and after the Finding Gadd quest-line I'd have to go with Sasuke.

Let's just say the new female characters are showing a lot more "heart".

It's probably because of "Cracked Armor," and it's use against female characters....

No reasons or explanation, real useful there.

I haven't finished the Campaign yet as i tend to get easily caught up in doing other things like stomping through zones for rep or trying to figure out how to solo a Seige Devourer.

However, based on the time it has been taking me to clear the campaign missions that i HAVE done i can easily believe the talk of 9-10 hours to complete. Plenty of mini-games and dungeon running and exploring is there to fill in the gaps and make it a solid expansion. I think my biggest sell point is the enemies have a brain now. The Mandragor packs around the EotN itself early on combining Spirit of Toxicity whit heavy condition infliction and "Reap Conditions" was enough to impress me even though they weren't really that tough.

I have a general rule of thumb of a game being "worth it" if you get 1 hour of entertainment for each dollar spent, and GW:EN has delivered. If you ONLY looked at the campaign you would fall short of that mark but with all the other things to do it's easy to reach 40 hours of play in GW:EN.
