Nostalgic and fun to play. Best part of the game is your ability to upgrade your base in hell on how you would want your liar to look!

Overlord II successfully updates and upgrades the scale of the original, though some issues with the core gameplay remain. Picking up right where Raising Hell left off, you play as the Overlord's son who takes on the Glorious Empire (heavily inspired by Ancient Rome), the hippie elves of the Sanctuary and anyone else who gets in his way. Right from the start, you'll find several worthwhile improvements including a map screen, being able to teleport around the world through portals and recharging your health and mana whenever you go near a gateway. Overlord II also feels much bigger and more grandiose than the first with more environmental variety and set pieces. You'll sail a ship through lagoons and man a catapult and ballista for some extra carnage. Your minions and conquering deeds have also been upgraded; wolves, spiders and salamanders deliver some extra layers to combat and you'll also seize control of two towns, making your domination and destruction choices more meaningful. With all that said, Overlord II does have many issues that have gone unaddressed alongside a general sloppiness to some of the missions. The camera feels very imprecise with sweeping now controlling the camera simultaneously and there are other moments where the minions can get stuck or face instant death that tips the balance off-scale. If you liked the first Overlord and its unique blend of fantasy tactics, you'll enjoy this one even more as long as you can get past continuing problems. It's a shame that the series came to an end here with the rotten spin-off Fellowship of Evil putting the IP in its grave six years later. My retrospective on the two mainline Overlord games can be viewed here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3346181822

i have a special connection to this game, i am in no way old enough for this game to be my childhood, but it was, i remember a video from youtube that was entitled something like "top 10 worst things a game makes you do" and one of the games was overlord 2 were you kill baby seals in the first 15 minuets lol, the controls are A HUNDRED PERCENT not made for pc, half the time when i was stuck i just pressed random buttons untill the minion kille dthe kids that threw snowballs at me, overall overord 2 is BEST experienced on a xbox or with a xbox controller, but it still is THE best game were you kill helpless baby seals in the first 15 minuets 10/10

Brutal Legend Brütal Legend is an action-adventure that marries visceral action combat with open-world freedom. Set in a universe somewhere between Lord of the Rings and Spinal Tap, it’s a fresh take on the action/driving genre, which in this case is full of imitation cover bands, demons intent on enslaving humanity and Heavy metal tunes.
