Hehe, the game is addictive. Too bad I'm busy with assignments. If not, for sure I'll play the game till finish in 1 seating. tongue.gif There are 13 chapters in the game (14, if you include the short prologue). 7 more chapters for me to go. biggrin.gif

I've never played The Longest Journey. Is it like Anachronox? Love that game. Ended with a cliffhanger ending. Till now, no sequel. Damn!!!

Nope. Anachronox is RPG game. The Longest Journey (the first game) is point and click adventure (a-la Syberia, Broken Sword) while the sequal Dreamfall: The Longest Journey is an action adventure game.

There are fighting in the game, but it's combat system is too simple. Only got 3 buttons, light attack, heavy attack, block.

I also haven't played the 1st game. Going to do so after I finished playing Dreamfall.

Hehe, just telling the number of chapters la, some review also tell that. Total number of chapters also considered spoiler ah?

BTW, you don't need to play the first game before playing Dreamfall. There's a summary of what happened in the first game in the manual book.

The storyline is great. thumbup.gif It addictive, and you'll want to know what will happen next.

Well, graphics depend whether you're demanding or not. I'll post some screenshot from my gameplay:

This screenshot are taken with all details setting turned up, and max anti-aliasing.

The graphics are nice, but for me who are used to graphics in game like Oblivion, Tomb Raider Legend, F.E.A.R, I'll say that the graphic in Dreamfall are not as nice as I expected. They look like an Xbox game. On the bright side, it don't have high graphic card requirement. Recommended graphic card is GeForce 5700 or ATI 9550 only.

Gameplay is solid, but the combat system is too simple for my liking. Also, the camera angle is arkward when you're in place with small space; but this is rare.

Look like HDR? sweat.gif

If HDR look like that, than there's no point buying expensive graphic cards to enable HDR.

EDIT:

I just finished this game. The last 2 chapters are really short. sad.gif
