The Way Continues....

I really liked The Way EP 2. It was a huge improvement over The Way EP 1. But can The Way EP 3 be better?

Story:
Great story. Great freaking story. It continues after the second one with you and a mysterious green haired man. The phantom slasher does not make an appearance. Maybe it was him that you see. It wasn't very clear but the pictures were different so I don't think it was. Anyway the story introduced more questions and did not answer many of the previous ones. It was a very good continuation of the story until it was cut off way to quickly. The length was severly short. Even shorter then the second. But the story is still very intresting.

Charactors:
Some of my favorites return like Lynna. She is very funny. I can't really tell you how she returns but it is hilarious and I found myself laughing my ass off. Rhue returns and is even more freakin mysterious then before! How is that possible? Well just play the game. Trazium, Rose, and Celsa also return. My favorite return would have to be Trazium. He is so mysterious and very funny.

Graphics:
More of the same. Mostly RTP but more Still Lifes then in the second. So basicly the graphics are not the reason to play it.

Mapping:
Is it just me or did everyone get lost at some point in the very first dungeon? It may be lack of skill who knows? It is so big that they made multiple levels in the dungeon and it was up to you to figure it out. There are many dungeons and and the only city is very small. The mapping overall is pretty damn good.

Gameplay:
Ah the one thing that drags it down. Plunging has returned and gotten even more confusing introducing links. There are only two or three Plunges though which is good. Honestly the Plunging can be fun when you are allowed to win. One of them you can't. The dungeons hold most of the regular first person battles. There are alot outside too. At one point you can play as Rose for about five seconds. Five seconds of pure joy! (Sarcasm is just another free service I offer.) So gameplay is good not great.

Overall: This game is good but some of the confusing dungeons tends to turn it down. The length is also very short.

Next: The Way Episode 4
