Heroes Forge: Battlegrounds

Haven’t been playing long, maybe a week, and so far it is enjoyable. I don’t spend money initially as I like to play a bit before doing so. Prices aren’t too high and much cheaper than many other games out there. I will revisit the review once I have more time in but, at this point, I would recommend at least trying the game and seeing for yourself. Graphics aren’t bad at all.

This game starts slowly, but gains steadily, with varied interest applied. More venues are opened as one progresses, and interestingly enough, there is no need to buy, as you can level one star toons to 5 star toons with great power. In arena it’s easy to see, as 5 star greens are just as powerful as 5 star golds of the same level. You can of course buy these golds at a discounted price, with a monthly pass, and chose to further purchase full sets of advanced armor, or experience. These are all personal choices as pay to play is not necessary, but optional. I have been playing for a week daily, and noticed that more experience is gained if you follow daily tasks, adventure quests. Raids are available daily, and these are fought by all players over a set time period. I have so far unlocked all venues of play except for Ascension Tower which opens at level 25; am currently level 22. The game is worth giving it a shot from my perspective, weather you chose pay to play, just play:)

So much potential here but man the UI and graphics need a total overhaul or more experienced team. Nothing is explained well at all. Hard to say this game is passable with RuneScape graphics when you have so many other choices out there. There isn’t one thing this game does great. Which is sad because I wanted to like it but I got bored after the first 10 min. Just seems like a lazy race for a cash grab.
