Nev's Reviews Inc.- "His World"

"His World"
PSN: xbriandeadx

"His World" begins where the first episode (The Abandoned Coal Mine) left off. It's the first time I've come across the a level that actually feels like a continuation of the previous, which is something even I struggle with . So my first suggestion before you play this level, is to play the first part, because it is SO much more worthwhile if you do. Anyway, here we go:



5/5 ---> Appearance- As expected, "His World is simply amazing to look at. The author has an uncanny ability to turn the happy sackboy world into the morbid pits of hell, while not looking stupid doing it. (reference: my level hah!) This level is worth the play for the sheer magnitude of awesomeness in the visuals. Helluva job brian

9/10 ---> Gameplay- Ohh where to begin with the gameplay...well first of all, if you've played the first episode you may have noticed that it doesn't pose a large degree platforming difficulty. "His World" is quite the opposite. Timed jumps and knowledge of the different planes is key in beating this level. I struggled in my first play and didn't make it through the entire level, because I didn't pay attention to the planes and didn't take my time. This is extremely important to note, because if you rush through this level you'll find yourself frustrated rather than challenged. I say this because, although there is challenge, it is truly worth getting to the end of this level. The boss (Loki) is freaking epic, and some of the dynamics that the author used in this level I haven't seen before. It's just beautiful, beautiful work. And not to mention there's torture! Brought me back to my old Quake 2 days for some reason, and for that I can't thank you enough. Glorious work :hero:

3/5 ---> Replay Value- While the level is simply amazing, the only reason you would find yourself coming back for more is to marvel at the sights this level presents. You might learn a thing or two if you take a good look at this level, because I know I did. Definitely worth a play, if not two or three.

Overall Score: 17/20

This level is right up my alley, and if any of you have an artistic/creative bone in your body, you'll check this level out. Bravo
