Why I ask you? Why has one of the longest-running and most respected strategy series-eses ever still not worked it out? Worked out what you ask? Well, take a look at these screenshots and you'll probably guess. No matter how good a game is, if it looks like a cowpat smeared on a monitor by a Turner Prize winner, it's never going to attract the plaudits it deserves. If you need evidence, just look at any of the recent turn-based Warlords games or their real-time Battlecry siblings.
Sadly, Battlecry III is no exception, as it looks identical to its two predecessors. Needless to say. But they are important, especially when you're forking out a years' savings on a new graphics card. Also, the frenetic nature of an RTS means it's essential to be able to see what's going on forget troop tactics and using the laughable formations - units mostly just bunch up into ugly and indistinguishable clumps of limbs and heads. And don't even get me started on the hideous menus and interface.
But that's where my major criticisms end. Yup, from now on, I'm going to be all glowy and positive, because under Battlecry Ill's messy visuals and combat lies a great game.
As with all Warlords games, the campaign - which isn't only large but freeform too - is packed with superb RPG elements and revolves around an upgradeable Hero unit. There are a whopping 28 classes and 16 varied races five of which are new to choose from, as well as a huge pool of abilities for your Hero to develop depending on their race and class and over brilliantly imaginative spells to learn.
So, on to the freeform campaign, which tasks you with travelling around the mythical world of Etheria completing either plot-driven missions, fun bonus tasks such as killing more enemies than your opponents in 30 minutes , or buying items and hiring mercenaries.
