Might and Magic X: Legacy Review
Might and Magic X: Legacy makes me feel as though I'm back in high school. (For reference, it’s been a while.) I enjoy when it nudges me into turn-based battles on tiled maps and pitted me against spiders in a well, but I despise it when its stuttering performance and pop-in textures remind me of the clunker PC I had back in the '90s. Good thing, then, that Legacy delivers an old-school fantasy roleplaying game experience that's so authentic and earnest that its payoff is just as worth enduring the technical shortcomings as its ancestors were.
Loading PlayRarely do modern RPGs allow such a high degree of freedom. The only real tutorials or direction involve convincing an NPC to tag along and spout commentary as you pass different services, and when you venture into the world beyond the starter town, Legacy grants you the liberty to bumble into zones your party's ill-prepared for. It's a smart design that left me keenly aware of my limits and added variety to the dirty work of leveling and allocating stats to my four heroes. That in itself delivers one of Legacy's primary challenges, as it allows multiple opportunities to create shoddy party makeups out of the 12 possible race and class combinations while also offering the freedom to make optimal parties capable of handling most struggles with ease.
Yet Legacy's not entirely ruthless. Should you wish, you can start out with a perfectly capable boilerplate party with a tank, warrior, ranger, and freemage. It doesn't exactly make the experience easy, but such a balanced party grants a solid starting point for novice players seeking to experiment with classes in future playthroughs. Indeed, tinkering with my party makeup will be what I remember most about Legacy a month from now, as it has little patience for story. It’s frontloaded with with an oh-so-grand cinematic crammed with fallen angels and epic battles, while the business of the actual action centers on a band of raiders just “out to make a name for themselves.” Legacy emphasizes the contrast further by making their mission no more complex than delivering their warrior mentor's ashes to a distant temple across a landscape where spiders, naga, and chimeras huddle together as thickly as grease on bacon. The approach succeeds, largely because such a humble undertaking means you're not caught up in matters of world import, which means Legacy neatly escapes such disconnects as Commander Shepard's leisurely jaunts throughout the galaxy while Earth's fate rests in his/her hands.
It usually matters little, however, since Legacy concerns itself with combat over all else. This may be a more complete RPG experience than the similar Legend of Grimrock, but it's a comparative stranger to story-heavy fantasy romps like Dragon Age II. Nail-biting challenges present themselves as early as the first spiders you meet, who hit hard and all but slather your party in venom that can only be cleansed with the antidotes that drop afterward. Most of the time enemies gang up on you, either lobbing poison at you or, later, countering every dodge with a free hit. Progression itself is slow in the first few hours, particularly as you'll have to trek back to town frequently to stock up and rest. And this, mind you, is on the novice-friendly Adventurer mode that allows you to take along a preset party of balanced heroes; even greater changes wait on the punishing Warrior mode.
Loading PlayAll this would spoil the experience of Legacy in less capable hands, but developer Limbic Entertainment usually gives you access to the skills you need to succeed. What tactical gameplay exists springs from its careful use of gridded exploration, which encourages such strategies as luring enemies down narrow paths and blasting them with area-of-effect spells. Elsewhere, Legacy adds variety by sprinkling in simple puzzles that might reveal secret passageways. Mindless hacking and slashing tends to get you nowhere; instead, Legacy comes into its own when it lets you use a freemage's air spell to knock an enemy two tiles away and out of the range of an endangered melee fighter, or smartly training skills so non-freemages also have a chance to heal. Even warriors get their own bundle of "spells" here, allowing them to taunt foes or deflect hits and thus keep squishy members kicking. The approach usually works well, particularly since Legacy's dungeons were designed with such tactics in mind.
The same approach doesn't work as well in the outer world, which Limbic blanketed with the same grid you find in the interiors. Legacy might look like a modern open-world game, but it forces you to move about like Robocop's ED-209 rather than an agile medieval wanderer. What worked so well in the cramped passageways of caves and dungeons proves tiresome when exploring. Think you've got that distant ogre right where you want him for your mage? Nah, Legacy thinks he's still around a corner. Think your archer's got a clear shot of that goblin right in front of you? Hardly – that tiny stone between the two is apparently blocking the shot. It probably wouldn't be so bad if so much of Legacy's action didn't take place in the wilds, but as it is, in time it even sours the pleasures of scouring the landscape for buff fountains and hidden treasure chests.
Loading PlayAt least the landscape's usually worth looking at, even if its faux-retro graphics did occasionally tax my PC (which handled the better-looking Final Fantasy XIV: A Real Reborn on high settings) with long loading times and split-second freezes even on medium settings. Bothersome, too, is Legacy's insistence on forcing you to connect with Ubisoft's Uplay service, as the only impact it had on my playthrough were warnings that I couldn't play my single-player RPG because Uplay was down.
But for me, what matters is that I wanted to keep playing, and judging from the recent appearances of The Banner Saga and Blackguards, developers are realizing that there's a hunger for this kind of turn-based gridded play that hasn't been satiated in recent years. Neither of those two games come so close to capturing this style of RPG in its purest essence as Might and Magic X: Legacy, however, and it doesn't hurt that Legacy has mod support.
Verdict
Might and Magic X: Legacy marks a welcome break from the contemporary focus on story-driven RPGs by delivering gridded turn-based combat that largely works. The approach doesn't work as well in the exploration of the open world, unfortunately, and the experience as a whole suffers from optimization issues. But as an old-school dungeon crawling experience that doesn't shy away from punishing you for errors, Legacy usually delivers.
