![]() ![]() OXM (80/100): "To be fair, most parts of Overlord II are fun, and its problems are offset by high production values and funny dialogue (oh, those minions!). Not only is it a distinct improvement on the original, but the new features add greatly to what was already a superbly entertaining game." A lot of folks missed the original game, so here's your second chance: Overlord II preserves what worked last time, improves what didn't, and tries several new ideas on for size."Įurogamer (80/100): "Overall, in what has been a pretty underwhelming year for games so far, Overlord II feels like a shining beacon of quality. Game Informer (65/100): "The real shame is that Overlord II can be entertaining. It shamelessly embraces its evil heritage, and goes to great lengths to put the hilarious minions front and center. On the other hand, it just doesn't play well. While the original Overlord was a compelling game at heart, Overlord II just feels like an unpolished retread of *familiar ground." The controls are clunky, the pacing is unsatisfying, and the multiplayer feels tacked-on. IGN (60/100): "Overlord II is a sequel that is neither bigger nor better than its predecessor. The size and scope have been dialed back to something that is more akin to a straight action game. No amount of British wit could bring a smile to my face as I treaded through the tedium that is Overlord II." And since none of the frustrating elements of the first have been fixed - namely the camera, control, and save structure - this game just isn't much fun. Zelamy: Does the full game have multiplayer like the first one did? Yes Overlord II does, but much better, faster, funnier and more evil than in the original. Zelamy: Oh and is there any chance of a female overlord at some point? All of the multiplayer maps/game-modes are specifically tailored to work with Overlord’s Horde gameplay mechanic, with both PvP and Co-op being catered for, plus split-screen for those who want it. Interesting suggestion, we’ll pass this on to the dev team.
