This game opened my eyes to what immersion could be. While I struggled with the difficulty level, I really liked that I can do things my way and be rewarded for that. They don't make games like that anymore. 10/10 orc kicking experience!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is just an excellent fantasy adventure game with immersive sim elements. Great sword combat and spell casting. This game should come to gog because it's good and old. One could say it's a Good Old Game.
I loved the world and the various adventures of Might and Magic ever since HoMM 2, but it wasn't until Dark Messiah that I felt I was really a part of the world. Technologically, the game was a huge upgrade from all other RPGs in the series, and the story was incredibly addicting. I just had to explore all endings. And those dual wield animations are still my favorite out of all games!
Let's see: the story is bad and Arkane admits it. it does have nothing to do with the Might and Magic series. some of the skills are unbalanced. and it runs in a very old and crusty version of Valve's Source Engine that makes it difficult to run it on modern hardware. but this game has one of, if not, the best melee combat you will find in a First Person Game and the environments of the game reflect that. before Episode Two, this is was the game that actually delivered the promise of Valve of a "Physics Based Combat" with Source, that and and the powerful kick you have you will not gonna have a bad time with this game. I love it!
Absolutely loved this game. I dont think there was anything like this since or before. first person RPG with great focuse on enviroment interaction and physics use during the fight. Personally think that what prevented this from being one of the biggest game of its time was the limited marketing and at the time high demands for hardware. I am sadden with the state of Might and magic brad and how it fade away in Ubisoft hands.
This was one of my favorite games od my childhood, I played it over and over again. Would love a good GoG port of this.
Even if just for the kicking mechanic, that was so good. Maybe this would increase the amount of mods for this game.
An excellent blend of intrigate dungeon design and dumb fun. It does have it's 2006 moment like a turret section and a worthless story, but when you start kicking people around and tricking enemies into all sort of trap, there's no going back. Just awesome.
Loved the combat and looking forward to buying it again.
It may have been buggy back in the day, but this is one of the few games that gave you many different options for dealing with any one problem. Tired of sword combat? Kick them off a cliff or into spikes. Don't want to be the Boot Lord? Use an ice spell to freeze the ground and cause your enemies to slide into the trap. The game is a playground for experimentation.

Lost OdysseyLost Odyssey is set in a world in which a "Magic-Industrial Revolution" is taking place. While magic energy existed in all living creatures beforehand, it suddenly became far more powerful thirty years before the beginning of the game. Because of this, it has affected society greatly, with devices called "Magic Engines" harnessing this power for lighting, automobiles, communication, and robots, among other uses. While previously only a select few could wield magic, many magicians gained the ability. However, such progress has also caused two nations to develop new and more powerful weapons of mass destruction. The kingdom of Gohtza and the Republic of Uhra (which recently converted from a monarchy). Uhra is building Grand Staff, a gigantic magic engine, while the heavily industrialized Gohtza actively pursues magic research of their own. A third nation, the Free Ocean State of Numara, remains isolated and neutral, though it is falling into disarray due to a general attempting to stage a coup d'etat. Uhra, at war with Khent, a nation of beastmen, sends its forces to the Highlands of Wohl for a decisive battle at the start of the game.Trending Open world
