Because this freebie is on GOG, not Epic, you silly-billies!
* The First Templar: Special Edition https://www.gog.com/en/game/the_first_templar
"First Templar" is a third-person action/adventure
hacker-slasher; not quite as combat-focused as "God
of War" but generally in that area. It's also a lot
rougher in production; the visuals were a bit dated,
even when the game was new (in 2011!), and they've
visibly aged over the past 13 years. The controls
aren't smooth; the writing and dialogue are cheesy.
This isn't an outright bad game, but at it's best
it was a B-list game, and it hasn't improved with
age. Lovers of the genre might appreciate it (as
will anyone who likes FREE stuff) but it's not
the sort of game to rush out and get, even gratis.
I mean, I'm gonna grab it. Free AND on GOG? How can I resist? But you
have 72 hours to decide for yourself. Choose wisely.
Silly-billies.
I rushed out and got it! Now to see if I remember to play it any time
in the distant future after I finish all the games I've got lined up.
