Infamous Scribbler Posts: 535 Joined: 21 Jan 2009 | Overlord Seems like one to avoid at any rate. "I do agree with the its not fun to be a dick if your encouraged to do that" theory I guess moral choice isn't for Yahtzee EDIT: pretty sure everyone except the guy above me is gonna get a whomping from the mods :-P |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3768 Joined: 1 Mar 2009 | This one was funny, indeed. I always wondered if it was worth getting or not. Now I know... I think. |
Press Junketeer Posts: 467 Joined: 25 Feb 2009 | I need to try that in Half-life. I'll load it up now! |
Copy Clerk Posts: 65 Joined: 14 Jul 2009 | I did enjoy the game but I agree with the whole sweeping the minions thing. |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 1462 Joined: 29 Mar 2009 | Glad we share the same oppinion. I tried the game and hated it. |
Beat Writer Posts: 141 Joined: 18 Apr 2009 | I have never heard of this game before, but this was a pretty good review. I found it to be a lot more informative on the game than your recent reviews, but that is probably because I've never heard of this one. I feel like games where you get to be a dick are becoming more and more popular now, simply pushed by the fact that you get to be a dick rather than make your own choices. |
Infamous Scribbler Posts: 577 Joined: 25 Apr 2008 | I recommended this for my brother. He loves the Overlord games, mainly for the impy minions. (Great use of them today btw!) I simply want nothing to do with this game. |
Beat Writer Posts: 164 Joined: 11 Mar 2009 | HAHA Well good :) |
Paperboy Posts: 22 Joined: 25 Dec 2008 | Wasn't the first Overlord bad enough? |
Anonymous Source Posts: 3 Joined: 27 Jun 2009 | I actually enjoyed the original Overlord, I always found the fact that it wanted you to be evil quite fun. I suppose the idea did loose it's luster somewhere around the first few levels though. I think I'll give Overlord2 a miss. |

Epic out-geek! On topic, it was an interesting review, especially considering I was reading the "trustworthy reviewers" topic earlier. Good job, keep up the nice work. |
Beat Writer Posts: 213 Joined: 3 Jun 2008 | He could've at least commented on the humour of the game a little bit. I didn't really laugh my ass off while playing but it's still a huge part of it. |
Beat Writer Posts: 213 Joined: 3 Jun 2008 | edit: I only pressed the bloody button once. Evil message board. |
Beat Writer Posts: 209 Joined: 27 Dec 2008 | Real Time Stupid! It's pretty sad when any game resembles a game by Peter Molyneux... |

I was just noticing the same thing. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1192 Joined: 6 Oct 2008 | I tried Overlord 2. I don't think it was BAD, per se. I just think that a little more freedom would've been better. |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 974 Joined: 22 May 2008 | Sauron, the 'Sau-' is pronounced like 'how'. |
Copy Clerk Posts: 115 Joined: 7 Jul 2009 | Never played either of the Overlord games. They mever really looked all that fun. |
Beat Writer Posts: 192 Joined: 28 Mar 2009 | Never thought about the comparison to Pikmin. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2869 Joined: 23 Apr 2009 | Awesome I wanted him to do this one! |

No, because he doesn't go around ordering people's deaths, he sits in his doom fortress legally preaching his message of hate to his brainwashed minions. |
Infamous Scribbler Posts: 567 Joined: 11 Feb 2009 | OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG DID YOU SEE THAT SEMI COLON EEEEEEEEEEEEK |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 912 Joined: 12 Feb 2009 | Game is probably more fun on the Xbox. I'm sure it still sucks though... |
Paperboy Posts: 29 Joined: 4 Mar 2009 | I'm actually glad that someone compared this to pikmin, it proves that I'm not insane and that the two games actually are similar. But pikmin is better... by a lot... |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1245 Joined: 6 Apr 2009 | absolutely brilliant review as always, was thinking about getting the game but i think i will pass now.... |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1258 Joined: 24 Jun 2008 | Hmm I was actually thinking about buying this off of steam and now I know not to thanks yahtzee. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1338 Joined: 1 Jun 2009 | Another shitty sequal, another scathing review from Yahtzee the Game Nazi. Keep it up, old bean! |
