But at least I have another outlet for my wrath: kicking things in Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. With how terrible the reviews were, I thought even ten dollars might have been overpaying. But so far the experience has been largely positive. Well, it's been positive for me.
It's been less positive for people standing near ledges

and for crates

For them, these are the end times.
There was actually one pretty cool fight where three goblins were trying to surround me. I saw a narrow bridge and ran onto it. I used charged up horizontal slashes and vicious bootings to hurl them to their dooms. As the last one fell, Another three goblins attacked me from behind and got the same treatment. First person melee still stinks, but this is the best experience I've ever had with it. Well, technically I've had knife runs in Joint Ops I've enjoyed more because of how ridiculous they were, but this actually felt like something approaching tactical melee in first person. It just isn't done.
