Recently in the West there has been a encouraging trend: games on films are no longer a hastily blind additive for fans. The quality of such projects is growing steadily, and only in our country the term “playing” still remains synonymous with the word “trash”. However, everything is not so cloudless and in the homeland of imperialist hot dogs. For example, Disney: the giant of the film entertainment industry still slips the gullible buyer to processed toilet paper under the brand of “Doctoral” sausage. Caribbean, “Flying Dutchman” and, most importantly, Jack Vorobey performed by Milashka Depp-well, do you miss this?
Pirate booth
In order to cover the target audience as much as possible, At World’s End released already on seven platforms, including the console of a new generation. For some reason, PC was offended for some reason, endowing the computer version with graphics from PlayStation 2. It remains only in powerlessness to wave his fists, looking at the pretty screenshots for Xbox 360. Alas, we will have to be content with gray blurry textures and a bad animation of the fights.
The script of the game meticulously recreates the main events of the film, turning each episode into a separate level. In some places, the developers, however, were honestly checked, so a good half of the missions will pass in the same decorations. The global task is to collect all the leaders of the pirates for the council, visiting the sake of such a goal very exotic places. What is the seabed, where there is not a drop of water, but in an abundance of aggressive dilapidated shawarma.
The essence of the gameplay is to be more fun as funny as possible. Someone is a kick in the ass, squeeze the leg with another, dip the third in a barrel of water. Thanks to the Finta system, it is possible to deftly dodge the blows, and unlucky shirts fly off the abyss with a runway. Unfortunately, this is quickly boring, since there are not so many methods. The trouble with cold weapons: two types of blows, and a few combo, which is like a slasher of death like a slasher. Honestly, at the third hour of the battle, to shred the hordes of zombies, pirates and soldiers, well, well, it is just unbearable.
Buying new techniques, as it was in Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, would have come in handy. However, instead, developers implemented another fashionable reception today, when it is necessary to press very quickly in a certain sequence of the key. It is such moments that are perhaps the most interesting, since they are remotely reminiscent of the film. If you do not pay attention to the graphics, of course.
Excessive the frivolity of what is happening is emphasized by every detail. Bags of gold, bombs and … greel hens, which are an analogue of the first-aid kit are falling out of the corpses. The gun will shoot if it is chopped from the heart with a fist on it, and the locked door can easily be blown up with a barrel with gunpowder with gunpowder. Well, the intelligence of enemies is enough just so as to give up the spirit in the most ridiculous way. Actors, in turn, behave, as befits true superheroes: bravely crossing the narrow beams at a height, abruptly going down the stretched rope and balancing on a rolling wheel of a water mill.
As a rule, at each level there are additional tasks, such as “get ten slap in the face” or “free all the captives”. They pass elementary, uniformly extremely, and some insignificant bonus like a new playable character will open as a reward. Particularly ardent fans can kill time for playing bones or cards. Doubtful entertainment, since ask me.
Traman vs Ktulhu
Anyone who animated the sparrow definitely exalted the stick in his desire to match the original as much as possible. The resourceful captain eventually turned out to be an absolute bit of bitter, winding zigzags in the area and building stupid faces. In combination with absolutely insane replicas of its shouting, however, in an amazingly beneficial way affect the atmosphere. If he was in the film, failure cannot be avoided, but in the game based on the most then!
The villain Devi Jones looks no less comical, with tentacles “near Kthulhu”. The poor fellow is fussing in search of a chest with his heart, sending different evil spirits on us. It feels like the poor fellow escaped from a secret laboratory, where genetic experiments on crossing with marine animals were conducted over people. These rakzyabrim and sharlonoids are the place in the reserve of Dr. Moro. In Pirates, however, they also feel at ease.
As already mentioned, the graphics on the PC are described exclusively by non -capable vocabulary. The minimum of interior details, the environment is usually limited to all kinds of boxes, barrels and other bulky tinsel. Special effects end on unpretentious explosions and sparkles from crossing blades. How there are not enough bright clear textures and dynamic lighting, but in versions for new consoles all this is available! Models of enemies are angular, duboloma move no more gracefully than a ball bear and have a bad habit of evaporating in the air.
But with the sound this time everything is in order. The licensed soundtrack causes exceptionally positive emotions and sets up in an adventure way. The characters in the Russian version, oddly enough, are voiced with the soul and do not cause the usual attacks of drowsiness with their phlegmatic intonations. And the rest where you need to – jigs down, rings, growls and pursues with curses. Not a masterpiece, of course, but the hearing does not cut.
Final comments
Far from the highest quality, but not frankly fault playing of a great film. Whether the picture is more tender, and combat techniques are more diverse, it would turn out a very worthy action. In the current form, the “pirates” leave exclusively at the expense of their original source.
Gameplay: unnecessarily monotonous, although not devoid of the dynamics of slasher.
Graphics: at the PlayStation 2 level, for which they are anathematized in our time.
Sound: original music and good voice acting characters.
For a long time?: as a thematic entertainment for a couple of days will make.https://casinobof.uk/
