Angry Joe joins, Dan, Skitch, and Dant for a playthrough and first impressions of Dungeons and Dragons: Daggerdale on XBLA. Is it anything like the 4th edition roleplay game its based on? More importantly, is it worth playing?

Hello
this’s very cool post
Just read it and went gosh, I know why I was poor in the debate class. Died: 0000-00-00 Woody Allen Born 1935
I nonetheless have religion that almost all of The united states was not that ridiculous to vote for Obama.
Don’t hate on unreal engine because of the bugs. Completely the developers fault if they didn’t manage the project properly to fix them.
Hey Joe, something that you may like if you want a bit more of a developed MMO game, there’s a new Beta testing game that I think could use some criticism. It’s got a great class-changing system that I think you could get into, and pretty interesting combat. It’s from Free to play, paid market system MMO creator Aeria Games, called Eden Eternal. It’s got it’s problems though which is why I think you could really help make some reasonable suggestions. Oh, and I will mention again, it’s free to play, but don’t take that as it’s gonna suck either.
As for this, there’s only three words that could sum up the whole thing. “Yahhhh! Magic Missle!” The rating you plan on giving it is included in there. XD
very annoying 12yeard olds reviewing a game.
“HEYHEY LOOK AT ME HEHE..im shorter than a dwarf”..omg cant stop laughing 😀 ur crazy Joe
I’m sure the Witcher 2 is good and all (If not great), but…
PLEASE STOP ASKING.
Seriously, ENOUGH. I think he gets it. Every video of his for the past 3 weeks has been filled with comments requesting a review. Guys, it’s not requesting anymore.
THIS IS TROLLING.
Joe will get to it on his own time. He doesn’t like to let the Angry Army down.
Danger is his middle name….
His name is zap hazzard, and he’s EXTREME! he’s got bleach blond hair, shades and a red sports jacket. hes got so much money he doesn’t have time for love. he also happens to be a professional at painting roller coasters and race cars. and often goes sky diving with friends! he often gets ask what type of person would give their child such a name, and he just simply replies “the criminally insane and the mentally deranged!”
naw i often just use a phone book for character names. to avoid bringing Flynn moon-prancer madrigold the third esquire. who lives on gumdrop lane! has pink fluffy pants and a purple kneck tie! from ever leaving the cytoplasm of hell!
I’m spade and death by misadventure
Joe, this game may be bad, but some of your critics werent very good.
For exemple, you guys say that you feel weak against the enemies, but you dont play as a team, and i think that is one of the ideas of the game.
I know I will get lots of thumb downs, but I will say it anyways, peopleshould just drop their preconcepcions about games and start thinking. About the developers. for example. If this was rockstar, it would really be unnacceptable, but this is a xbla game made by some indie developers.
I’m not criticizing anyone, I just think that we should go a bit deeper than “this game sucks, next!”
This game does suck. Why would Joe, me, or anyone else want to play a game that sucks? Because the developers are poor? That’s a terrible idea. No, it’s more than terrible, it’s being immorally false to oneself.
The fact of the matter is that the entire point of a game is whether it’s good or not. There’s nothing deeper than being able to make a value jugdement on whether or not a game is good, for that is truly a difficult thing that reviewers like Joe do for a hobby/living.
For one, the necessity for teamwork should have been established in tutorial, which they cut short. Then you have incredibly boring bullshit missions, such as the turn on the lights mission they got.
You know what else was made by indie developers? Minecraft, didn’t even have good graphics, but damn, the gameplay! This is where D&D fails. there are no customization options, which is central to the D&D experience, making a character look and feel the way you want it. Hell, they had that option as far as back Eye of the Beholder, so what the hell happened?
Just because its indie doesn’t give it an excuse for sucking. There’s no story, no gripping characters, or hell, just characters that you even vaguely care about. there the next fetch quest with more text dialogue, and boring music.
Joe,
Gotta say I love your reviews! You need to review Tha WITCHA 2!
NO to Witcher 2 NO to Witcher 2.
So much bad blood with the witcher 2 fanbase against anyone who likes Bioware’s games its disgusting.
I don’t want Joe to review the Witcher 2 because quite frankly I’m tired of hearing about it. Most people who want him to review it are already playing it and have made up their own damn minds give it a rest people Joe’s gonna review what he’s gonna review and spamming the comment boxes aren’t going to change that.
Seriously though FUCK Witcher 2.
you are right – Most people who want Joe to review Witcher 2 are already playing it and have made up their own damn minds about it,
but we are just curious of what Joe thinks about this game, we all know he is a big rpg fan,
and come on, it is a indy game that is up there, at the top of the genre alongside titles from Bioware or Bathesta… it deserves support / recognition / prize
is this game for ps3 please answer or i will destroy you.
Well, it’s a game off xbox live arcade, SURELY it’s for Ps3…
You actually don’t need much hardware to enjoy Witcher 2. My Quad 6600, 4GB RAM and GeForce 8800 GTS(all in all a nearly 4 year old rig) do alright with high details. So Joe, where’s that Witcher 2 review, ey? xD
Oh. Dear. God. Not even Joe’s sparkling commentary could make this game anymore watchable, and that’s saying a lot when he managed to make Man Vs Wild look like fun!
So Joe, your from Austin Texas right.
Have you ever met the guys from rooster teeth productions.
You know Achievment Hunter and all that.
I know Austin is probably a big place but you are after all in the same business.
And they allso seem to dislike the vga`s in some ways.
You should listen to The Drunk Tank Podcast, they speak about great foodplaces and online news.
its really interesting.
Please reply.
Link to their website is on my name.
Yea stop playing these awful games
and play where it mater`s
At least joe can’t say about the Witcher 2 that it is too damn easy *cough*Fable3*cough*.
Maybe we should create a fund for Joe to buy a good pc.
Oh and 1 more thing, beware of its targeting system , it makes you utterly totally nuts, when i tried to kill the dragon, it kept targeting the minions instead of ( the REAL treat ) the dragon !
so as advice steer clear of this @$%@%$%@
PS Awesome end music Angry Joe 😉
Sounds awfully like the Sacred 2 glitch. You tried to attack the desired target, but ended up running for someone of them nearby. It was certainly frustrating when it continued throughout the whole game. So I never fulfilled it.
Though I must say the main reason was the immortal tree I met. Never could I ever kill it. As it kept on healing it self back up. It wasn’t like the monster was tough, just considerable frustrating. Possible should have stayed clear of the console version, seeing as they never fixed that issue.
any 1 here alrdy killed the dragon???? cant seem to get it right, it keeps respawning the pale dude / dragon over and over again….
Well tbh , i bought and played it, hav seen quite some rpg’s in my gaming time ( am 40 and played from my 10th all kinds of games ^^ ) I’m also not quite so experinced with D & D games, but i liked it tho it serious has a incredible irritating camera, bugs are quite hellish and the fact you can save it anytime BUT if you don’t complete the quest , you gotta start from the beginning ( crashed 3 times on my X360 and died 2 times) , but the real $#@%@$% is the difficult grade the game progresses its namely easy – easy – easy – impossible , last because you gotta kill the dragon but when both paws are “destroyed” and the head is almost done, the dragon retreats and the pale dude comes back alive, so you gotta kill him again and the dragon fun starts all over AGAIN AND AGAIN,
“Isnt the Point of DnD to create your own character?”,
exactly why 4th edition sucks so hard 🙂
/troll mode off
(trolling aside, i dont consider choosing one of three builds to be creating my own character, but thats why we have real rpgs for ^^)
/troll mode really off
Nice funny vid Joe, good to hear Skitch 🙂
I just wait for the day when a really good computer RPG comes out (not an action hybrid (like Mass Effect, Elder Scrolls), or a Roguelike, or an shallow Hack&Slash (Dragon Age). Just a really good turn based, party based, tactical RPG, that isnt just “Talking and Fighting”.
Or in which at least the fighting is very interesting (deep).
But I know this wont happen soon 🙁
I didnt expect anything out of this, but it baffles me how low the production quality of this game is, it looks/sounds and apparently plays badly.
Well, lets see what comes next, thanks for teh video Joe 🙂
Doesn’t looks like something we already haven’t seen 100 times before.
THAT dude that died at the middle of the video was so anoying. Seriously he didnt shut the fuck up the whole video, he totally sucked and his voice was so stressful.
The witcher is the BEST RPG ive played since Baldurs Gate and KOTOR, I ll wait for the late review!!!
I meant to say the Witcher 2 …the first one is just ok …the second one is amazing
Wheres the Witcher 2 review? Wheres the Witcher 2 review? Wheres the Witcher 2 review? Blah! Blah? Blah!
Seriously… GET OFF JOES BACK! Hes already stated before his computer SUCKS! He couldnt run Witcher 2 even if he wanted to, & I doubt hes gonna put out 1000 bux to update his PC just to review a game for you! OK!
Sooooooo… SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT IT ALREADY!!! : (
What on earth you talking about? If read his tweets he’s been playing Witcher 2 and a review is coming soon. I doubt you need to put in a grand to run the game, PCs that cost $500 can run it and even with low settings it still looks amazing.
Agreed i have mine on low graphics at the moment playing witcher 2 and it blows my mind definately glad i’m into rpg’s instead of fps. Don’t get me wrong i still like playing cod and avp online but i prefer to sit down with a good rpg anyday
Oh boy…. Educate yourself. You dont need more than 200 bucks to play Witcher 2. Just buy a decent 200 bucks graphics card. The rest of the pc can handle it if its not older then 5 years.
Stupid consolero. Consoles are so much more expensive then pc gaming.
dude, PC gaming is back, current console generation is getting seriuosly dated, Joe as a games reviewer pretty much needs to upgrade his PC if he is serious about his show.
look for example at BF3 – selling point: superb graphics, you wont get them on 360 or PS3, sorry
5 mins of w8ing and its buffered 38 seconds, pathetic……… and the reason Joe hasent reviewed witcher 2, is because its pc exclusive and what Joe has said in the past, his pc sucks. anyways gonna watch the shorter version on you tube, atleast its faster.
um….this is why im perfectly content with my ps3
Well first impression after seeing this.
Way to generic, like NPC’s quest givers often look the same. And even are the same character it self, just randomly copied and pasted on different grounds around the game as you go.
Second, I did only see goblins, skeletons, goblins, skeletons and even more goblins. While the only highlight could’ve been the rock monster, that was mostly there, just showing off.
I usually don’t mind the glitches though.
Humour involving when the character had her bow held steadily, as he/she was floating in the air. (My bad, couldn’t see whether it was a he or she there.)
And creatures death can also be seen in titles such as Fallout Las Vegas. Yeah! I’ve seen the rare occasion of that, but nevermind back to the case. May have dropped that code out from the programming… like. “We don’t need it.”
Other then that, I think I’ve done my self a favour looking at this video.
After all, was considering on buying this, until I saw this. Hell, I’d rather go back and play the Xbox/PS2 title D&D Heroes who was quite entertaining being back then.
If someone could go back to this era, along with Balders Gate. Don’t need to be no fancy graphics as this is arcade. What we are mostly looking for, is the gameplay experience.
Yeah to sum it up. Good time watching this video, while it made my mind so much clearer that I ain’t getting this.
I can give you a the witcher 2 review
it’s fu**ing awsome go buy it
Still no Witcher 2 review? Joe, I am disappoint -_-
That looks pretty bad, like you said fun with friends but not 60 bucks fun with friends 🙂
Can you do a Battlefield 3 review or maybe a preview?
Can the next review be please the Witcher 2
Where’s the Witcher review Joe? 🙂
Wow…..ya so i guess they need to make their money some how lol this definitely should not carry the D&D title tho 😛
D&D should be ashamed that this game has seen the light of day. It’s really lame.
Joe you picked Webster…why?
