![]() Despite having spent all this time with him on this journey, I just didn’t find myself rooting for Jax in his noble mission to save Magalan. You shape Jax’s character with the dialogue decisions you make but, at least in the low destruction path that I took, that doesn’t change him much past his gritty emotionless war hero. In the time between the last game and this one, Jax is married and even has a child, though he is estranged from both as the game starts. The game takes place a few years after its predecessor and follows Jax, a war hero whose efforts to warn everyone about forthcoming dangers have fallen on deaf ears. The first, are those who didn’t know what eurojank meant until this introduction, and the second, are those who are already fans of the genre.ĮLEX II from Piranha Bytes is a sequel to the 2017 vintage open-world RPG called ELEX. Though I knew little about the game or its niche genre when I stepped foot on Magalan, after over 20 hours into my playthrough and several more spent browsing related webpages, I have come to realize that this review has to address two separate audiences. A step into the latest game from a developer behind Gothic one of the most famous “eurojank” games ever made. For me, as someone who has not played the first game, going into ELEX II was a journey into the unknown. It’s that very same community that made the original ELEX sort of a cult hit. Players who see the game’s bugs as charming and ones who accept the technical shortcomings as part of the package deal. (Which was coincidentally also published by THQ Nordic.) At first glance, it may sound almost offensive to use the term, however, there is a niche audience that really adores games in this genre. And, interestingly enough, last year we actually covered a game that fits that description called Biomutant. That’s a new word I learned since I started playing ELEX II and, in my understanding, it refers to AA games that are as ambitious as AAA titles but without the budget. Little did he know that Magalan is a meta-melee world.Eurojank. Jax figured that energy weapons would be the best weapon-type for accomplishing his objectives. It was one of the reasons Jax joined the Clerics. That was basically its only use the whole time I had it because it doesn't do enough damage to make an actually effective weapon. Even the Redeemer was useless except for that it could knock things down and freeze robots and mutants. What I didn't like is that energy weapons are basically useless even with everything maxed out. So, Jax decided that the Clerics are the best option for effectively pushing back the Albs and bringing peace between the factions. Not to mention, the Clerics also had already actively worked towards finding common ground with at least the Berserkers, and they were open minded to others also. nor Jax apparently, that Jax could command the troops. I mean, Jax was a Regent and former Commander of armed forces, yet it didn't occur to Reinhold. Of course, in the end, Reinhold proved to be kind of stupid. Everyone else seemed to be too caught up on their own issues rather than focusing on what's important. They seemed the most focused on what's important, thwarting the Alb takeover, and they were the ones on the front lines fighting the war trying to push back the Albs. Jax saw the Clerics as just common sense to him that the Clerics are the group with the most promise. That's how I am too, but I joined the Clerics because of Jax. I didn't choose Outlaws because they are too egotist. I didn't choose Clerics because they are too fond of technology. ERISS: I'll choose Berzerkers, because I play nature lovers (woodelf ranger in all games).
