Magicka is a fun game, when it is not crashing on me. It frequently crashes on me.

I just beat the game and I can tell you that it is very good. Just a fun little Hack and Slash that does not take itself to seriously. The main focus of the game-play seems to be the "Hero" in the game rather than the minions that you can summon.

Edit: I am glad I ignored the negative reviews.

The original version works better. Got this as a free upgrade, but I plan on playing the original rather than this version.

I cannot stand the new voiced lines for the willpower abilities to the point I do not care to find out what the mini-game content is like.

The K+M control settings are to clunky for me to use, and with no clear indicator which button does what for my controller that is difficult to use as well. By the time I realized how ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up the controls were it was to late for a refund.

Since it is to late for a refund I might as well try to figure the controls out. Not gonna change my recommendation of the game, but it will at least let me play the thing.

Good stealth game. But this is a stealth only game. If you get caught you will need to run and hide to survive. Patience is a must in this game, if you try to go all out then the guards will kill you.

You get 4x the xp for a totally stealthed kill than what you get for killing them in a straight up fight AND the occasional level up for never setting off the alarm. Why would the developers give gameplay mechanics that will leave you with 20% - 25% of the skill points (which you need to get powerful) of you would get if you just sneaked in? People are strange for complaining about that type of thing.

Yet there are people who are complaining about not being good in a fight vs the guards who are your main opponents. Yet just by sneaking up on everything (which requires a lot of patience) I can wipe out an area with no risk of getting injured.

Long time no play.

Returned only to find out I need a 3-rd party login to play again.

Can't play = recommend avoiding.

At one point Rift was good. Then the free-to-play craze hit. Rift got cought up in it and fell apart like so many others. Unfair mechanical advantages and stuff locked by a pay wall are all traps that rift fell into.

I quit playing at that point. And I have no intention of going back it seems.

It was a good game, when I first started playing it all those years ago. However, there are new requirments. New requirments that I am unable to comply with as I try to play it again.

as i'm sitting here typing this i've loged in 31.7 gameplay hours. this game is fun. how is it fun? lets itemize a bit.

lets start with the graphics. they clearly tell you what's going on, no problems. for those who place more importince on grahpics that i do: exelent specal effect displays that do not hamper the view of what's going on. easy to look at terrain and charcters, no eye sores here. what else do you peeps look for? dunno'

game play, the combat (of wich there is plenty) is a bit more frantic than most mmo's i've played. you have to aim at your target, simply selecting it then pressing keyboard keys doesn't work, aim or you won't be able to hit with single target attacks, aoe attacks are easer to pull off, just make shure you are pointing in the correct direction. oh, and watch out for the big red areas, they show up when something hostile is about to land an attack there. about a dozen charcter races and (currently) 6 distinct classes. you get some tokens to rent a mount from a quest, let you know if you want to purchase one, or just keep walking. if you want to buy a mount there are an assortment of styles and speeds to choose from. and you can have a hierling, you get one of your choice free when you complete the tower zone, others can be purchased with ingame coin or (i assume) from the ingame store for real money.

questing: the quests have decent varity and no confusion. read the quest discription, follow the provided waypoint. easy enough, as long as you can survive whatever gets thrown at you. if a new area is to hard, back up to your last zone and help peeps with there quests, another lvl or two makes a big difference and they will apreacate the help. or just run the dungeon a time or three more, this will also help peeps with their questing.

sound? good. with 5.1 i have a good idea of everything going around me, on my comp screan or not. npc voiceovers are nicely done. combat noises are also nicely done. but this game is one of the very few i have problems with the voip, although i am apparently an exception here, as most i've talked to it works just fine for.

crafting, what is an mmo without player crafted goods? at lvl 10 you can start crafting items from any of several professions. step one: hire a (free) assistant,the first one takes 5 sec, then have your assistant gather goods, refine gather goods, or make useable products. you can find crafting goods while out adventuring, this helps a bit. you start with one crafting work slot and get others by reaching various mile stones, wich you can read from the select a workslot space. you will probally will have the "get a profession to lvl 3" milestone first, and it doesn't take to long to get. somewhere in here i need to mention that when you make an item you have your assistant(s) work on it in real time. most tasks are in the neighhborhood of 10 to 15 min, some will take longer, however. when your hierling is done with the work, just collect the resule and (if you want to) have one of them start working on something else.

community. in my exprience frendly peeps are the name of the game. need help, somebody will have a useful and polite answer in no time. friendly conversation is one of two topics i regulary see, the other is putting together a group for a quest. gold farmers exist here, but just right click on their name, choose "report spam" and they get put on your ignore list free of charge. no need to keep reading their spam. well, there was this one time i squelched somebody for rude coments to one of my toons, just right clicked and choose ignore for that person.

i think this covers everything. oh ya, game is free to play, they appear to get their $ on optionals, other than needing to purchase everything indivudally. or paying for things that other games provide for free, i'm thinking about one you had to buy items with real world $ to speak in global. more charcter slots and keys for those lockboxes that get passed out like candy on hallowween are the only ones that i notice. 'course i don't brouse the real money shop, you might find usefull stuff there. thinking of, i may just get a couple of extra charcter slots to try out diff classes.
