One of my personal favorites was a room full of skeletons that did the Gangnam Style dance in one of the early areas. Aside from the Voice, there are a lot of other references scattered throughout the game. Much of the loose narrative is connected by the Voice, who begins to feature more prominently in the story as it progresses. It typically acts as a sort of guide to the players in some areas of the game, but mostly it makes jokes and references to other games and pop culture.
It’s a cycle to be sure, but one that drives you ever forward on Victor’s quest: to find his friend and purge the Kingdom of Zagoravia of its rather large monster problem.Įarly into the narrative Victor encounters a “Voice” in his head that continues to speak to him throughout the game. You then use the loot you find to deck Victor out in all manner of offensive beauties, affording you new ways to mow down even more enemies. Luckily, the substantially packed Victor Vran has enough going for it to stand out and carve its own path amidst the sea of action-RPGs currently available.Īs an action-RPG, Victor Vran has most of the bells and whistles we’ve come to expect from the genre: mainly mowing down hordes and hordes of enemies, while collecting fat sacks of loot of varying qualities. There are a plethora of titles available right now on every single system, leading the average gamer at a loss for what differentiates any one game in the genre from another, as on the surface many of them share numerous characteristics.
In this day and age, action-RPGs are quite literally a dime a dozen. Add into that all of the additional content jam-packed into the Overkill Edition of the three-year old RPG, and there is a substantial value for your dollar. The combination of its complex mechanics, the well defined characters with superb voice acting - mostly notable Doug Cockle, voice of Geralt from The Witcher - and the story is enough to draw any player in and keep them playing, without finding any tedium in the gameplay or narrative. In a world where you can’t throw a goblin further than the next action RPG, Victor Vran was a real joy to play.
