Mixed feelings at parting (?) Of Deponia

Goodbye Deponia (Limited Edition) (computer game)

Customer Review

As a fan of the previous two parts of the final left (?) Of the trilogy (?) Rather mixed feelings in me. Had the first two parts, although some weaknesses, the humor, the loving design and the intricate puzzles could convince.
One of the few points that could well hold the first two parts, were for the first which (especially in the first part) is quite illogical (and initially also verbugten) minigames. Personally, I've never understood why it exists at all, these mini-games, if you can skip it. If these logical and more fun, then they were an integral part of the game and it would therefore not deserve to be skipped. Because it is known that mini-games a negative impression on some players, it was decided without further ado, to incorporate them, but to make skippable. I find that inconsistent and opportunistic.
Secondly, some of the puzzles were not quite logical and could be solved only by confused ideas or trying out.
The third point bothered me personally especially: Rufus's comments are repeated constantly when repeated clicks on certain objects or people. Other Adventure Games led us already, how well you can solve this problem: by with important information when repeatedly clicking the limited version is happening, which summarizes the most important information and unimportant information plays new comments that make you smile. In Deponia 1 + 2 but you have to always the same comments listen, regardless of whether these dialogues between several people or endless monologues are. I often caught myself at the impatient time-clicking away.

However, all these points I could get over, because the bottom line be entertaining, loving, witty and challenging adventure games. I especially liked the gate in the city in the second part, where there was to solve long puzzle chains and you got to know many bizarre Charaketere.

(?) Now we come to the actual review of the third part of the trilogy: "Goodbye Deponia".

All the above mentioned, occurring in the first two parts of weaknesses are again present here. Deadelic considered it apparently unnecessary to change this. One point that neither surprised nor particularly disappointed. At first glance, it is in "Goodbye Deponia" a sovereign sequel that the fan is what he expected. But one can not help thinking that the ideas and the love for the cause while working on the third part slowly came to an end and that this circumstance is compensated by plate exaggeration of the impression. The first version is verbugter, overall, the supporting roles spokesman worse. The humor of this time Rufus is much blacker, the expressions even vulgar.

SPOILER BEGINNING

Especially with the word "shit" is handled not hesitant. Since children are sent to pedophiles and child-eating monsters. Since a baby is captured with a boom and fed Antideprepressiva that are the baby after delivery of emetics, the face of the person who is to receive said antidepressants, puked. A couple is separated to as half-naked substitute for a dance monkey to leave the man to mindless slaves of symbionts, and the woman, a black woman the fair. Needless to note that the said Galgenstrick will only get after you convince a psychiatrist, his patient just to prescribe these.
Now, such a sense of humor is a matter of taste and likes like. And it is also true that this tastelessness are incorporated into the context of history and even result in the end makes sense. Rufus finally makes even through a catharsis and is even selflessly. Nevertheless leave the quite rich in twists development of the story a bitter aftertaste. Many a fan to another development and the other end would have wished.
The impression that the creators ran out of ideas and the love that is also expressed succinctly at another example: on the figure of the cowboy singer, speaking of "Smudo" from the hip-hop band "The Fantastic Four". This plate character are two rap songs to the best that left me with only the following impression: We take a guest star who heard the word "Deponia" used in any song and you're done. Main star. Almost loveless megalomania.
However, noteworthy is Rufus's great speech at the end of the game. This is a sense of humor that appeals to me how it could happen in the first two parts, and I truly laugh.

SPOILER END

Apparently the fan seems to get what he expected. Except for the above differences, "Goodbye Deponia" of the good predecessors does not differ much. The game is fun, some jokes ignite, some puzzles are tricky-logical and some moments in the game know certainly inspire and bring a smile to the face. But like really does not want me the last (?) Part of the trilogy (?). To carelessly affects the whole staged to flatten the humor and the texts of the characters, too exaggerated deftig the black-humored; to dull the taste. The trilogy (?) Evolved in a direction that is less like many fans. And speaking of the trilogy: the quite open end includes any sequels or spin-offs from far. Semi final, semi-cliffhanger, it leaves behind the fan with mixed feelings. This affects half cheeks, perhaps opportunistically to greedy. A game that does not know what it wants to be. A game the surprise, but nevertheless wants to please the fan behaved. Less ideas, more tasteless, less charming, more jokes plate and plate ideas.

Therefore, I forgive mediocre three points on a game that is neither particularly good, nor particularly bad; that is fun, but will disappoint the expectations of many a fans.
