Nevertheless, Chaos Legion makes up for this with its sheer kickassery in the gameplay department.Ĭhaos Legion is not without its flaws though. The story is bad, really bad and you are going to either love it or hate it for being bad. There are other little quirks to the story such as poorly delivered voice acting and the odd choice of music that plays during the ending credits. It doesn’t help that the main villain is hilariously identical to Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII, so much so that you even see a flashback of him standing in front of a fiery background much like Sephiroth did in Final Fantasy VII during the Nibelheim scene. The story as a whole is basically a massive dollop of edge to the point of absurdity. When confronted by a formidable adversary, Sieg combs his hair back as he sends the god of death to do what it does best… bring death! Not only is Sieg a capable sword fighter but he is also able to summon powerful legions to do his bidding. This doesn’t stop him from kicking some serious ass though. He’s the sort of guy you would find sat on his own in a bar drinking himself into a stupor. Sieg Wahrheit is about as cheerful as an onion, so much so that clowns would burst into tears at the very sight of him. The main character is what would happen if Dante from Devil May Cry and Squall Leonheart from Final Fantasy VIII had an offspring… now that’s a scary thought. For starters, the characters are just bad… I mean bad. It’s difficult to put it into words to be honest but the problems lie in a multitude of issues. This wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t for the ridiculous yet somewhat confusing storyline. The problem is that unlike the Devil May Cry games, Chaos Legion tries to take itself a bit too seriously. Put simply, Chaos Legion could easily be mistaken as being a campy 3D beat-em-up in the same vein as Devil May Cry with an emphasis on summoning minions to assist you in battle which isn’t completely far from the truth. The premise sounded interesting so I gave it a shot.Ĭhaos Legion is without a doubt an unforgettable experience but it’s an experience which may or may not leave a sour taste in your mouth. I picked it up dirt cheap in a bargain bin. When I first played Chaos Legion I didn’t know what to expect. It has its ups and downs but its flaws stick out like a sore thumb. Chaos Legion is a difficult game to recommend.
