Decent game. But I don't understand why we need allies now, after being able to save the world well enough on our own the last two times.
One thing I did not like at all were the new faction vendors in Varz, everything is super expensive and there's no even remotely decent way to make money or emblems in Varz. And after defeating the final boss you can't go back there to gear up for the beast.
The bug allowing you to cast your spells with an almost empty mana bar makes the game (including heroic the beast) way too easy, obviously.
A solid 3/5 points from me for this game and I'd like to have both less party members and less points of no return in the next Hand of War game :)
