Video: Desperados 3 In The Preview: Fresh Wind In The Revived Genre

2023 Author: Sheila Hailey | [email protected]. Last modified: 2023-08-25 04:29
If you haven't played Desperados or Desperados 2, you can still start with Desperados 3 with a clear conscience, because the game is a prequel to the originals. So veterans of the series can learn the history of characters like Cooper and McCoy.
Note: Desperados 3 will be released for PC, PlayStation 4 and XBox One before the end of the year. You can pre-order the game on Amazon.de.
However, Mimimi Productions has also brought new characters to life. The most exciting newcomer is without question Isabelle, who makes bad-tempered cowboys with voodoo difficult. This includes, among other things, mind control, which can be roughly compared to the spy from Commandos. However, this not only allows villains to be sent across the map, but instead can also be forced to open fire on their own colleagues.

However, the most interesting skill of Isabelle is to connect characters. A practical example: If opponent X and opponent Y are connected and opponent X is killed, then opponent Y also dies. However, this ability also works with your own characters. If, for example, a character is healed who is connected to another figure, both benefit from the effect.
The mechanics even go so far that I let opposing units be connected to their own heroes. As soon as the adversary opens fire, his own bullets hit him. An exciting sandbox mechanism that invites to numerous experiments and makes even serial veterans like me think again in completely new dimensions.

As heavy as I want
However, to make the game not too easy, some of Isabelle's abilities come at a high price: each activation costs them about a third of their maximum life points. Regardless of this, Mimimi Productions has optimized the level of difficulty compared to Shadow Tactics. Among other things, a whole range of factors can be individually adjusted: the positioning of the opponents, the speed of the cones of vision, the maximum life energy, the amount of ammunition and even the number of storage levels.
A game to my liking, because for me as a genre veteran, even Shadow Tactics on the higher level of difficulty was simply not hard enough for a large part. I am hopeful that this year Mimimi will bring me to despair in the most positive sense.
