In advance I've been playing all the previous Indy games. It's mainly them I compare with.
So far I've almost finished the Ceylon chapter and these are my impressions so far.
The graphics is beautiful! Just love it!
No possibility to save games where you want to...thats bad! It's very annoyng to restart level if you get killed in the end.
Controls...I'm starting to get used to them, but I'm not quite happy. For instance:
- Default should be walking, not running!
- I miss keys for left/right sidestep action.
- Should prefer shortcut-keys to select wepon and/or equipment. Now I'm using the mouse-wheel and it's often to slow when some goons attack you or you in a fight.
- The climb down ledge is a bit strange/fuzzy. Should be a better key combination for that.
Using the mouse to aim direction is good though. Similar to Return to Wolfenstein.
Fighting/Combat is great, no complaints there
So...what is the conclusion? Well, even if some things could be better (specially the controls), I enjoy the game and will continue playing!
...it's a pity about the controls though...
