Styx: Master Of Shadows: Attack Of The Ugly Green Goblin

If Styx had looks to kill, you'd already be dead as Cyanide Studios prove there is more to building a leading heroic character combined with engaging gameplay than just devilish good looks and washboard abs.

Haha, thats so funny. Nice to see Cyanide not sticking to formula on this one. It sort of reminds me of Creed mixed with fable, what do you guys think?

Frankskint3521d ago

@ginalee554 Not sure the british accents make me think of Thief, which to me was an epic failure of mega proportions. Hope this doesn't go that route.

Feel a lot more like Assassin's Creed Than Thief, especially with the stealth kills.

danniellelewis3521d ago

its like an assassin creed game but with actually proper stealth gameplay.

Well i think its very brave of Cyanide to actually make a character like Styx.

I usually support the villains in hero movies, they are always misunderstood, kind of like the Joker or Bane from Batman. If you really research their backstory you will come to discover that it wasn't only pretty boy bat face who had a troubled childhood.

He just had the good looks and loads of money to play with.

LOL i digress. Bravo Cyanide, I think I just found another new hero to support in Styx.

henrythomas2843521d ago

Well Styx better have a lot more going for him, because we are conditioned as a society to follow looks. For example Captain America, Superman, Batman, Justin Bieber . . . JK on the last one, but you get my point.

Blood Bowl 2 is a fun turn based game, well worth $5.

The Surge is a pretty good Souls game with slightly faster combat more akin to BB. It has free DLC, but the Walk in the Park expansion always looked intriguing.

Styx is an underrated stealth series via Focus Home, with a character derived from the underrated Of Orcs and Men.

I actually think Bound by Flame is an underrated budget RPG. The combat is excellent, visuals are solid, and the writing and voice acting is obscure. Actually, the writing and voice acting are terrible, but it has a strange European charm.

Technomancer is another budget RPG from Spiders. It has great atmosphere, loot, crafting, and robust skill trees. The combat is hit n miss, the writing is mediocre at best, but if you enjoy sci-fi and you want a budget Fallout in a Cyberpunk setting you should enjoy Technomancer. Just don't expect AAA quality. The story and setting are quite good.

I stayed away from the surge as I thought it was a first person shooter and it's really rare for me to like those.
I completely agree on bound by flame, challenging combat on it's hardest difficulty, fun budget title. I have technomancer but haven't jumped in yet. Same for divinity original sin.

Personally, I went for the council as I heard nothing but great things. And I nabbed Sherlock Holmes as well just because. My best friend is a sports nut so he grabbed NBA 18 since he didn't have it and it was only $10 even without plus.

victorMaje2150d ago

Funny, always kept The surge & Styx in the back of my mind. Guess it's time to try them out.
Divinity: Original Sin is a steal at $9.99. Game is a must-have, can't wait for Divinity: OS2 in August.
