Secret World Legends Critic Reviews

Beside the complaints of some players of the classic version about the drop of difficulty, beside those controversies about what we can get for free and what not, it's a game that will provide us for tons of hours of fun and excitement, and the fact of it's a free to play game makes it undoubtedly worth of try, even if it's just to fulfill our curiosity.

Writhing out of its niche, slithering, roiling tentacles endlessly grasping for the larger audience it most definitely deserves.

A less dramatic reimagining than it pretends to be, but hopefully enough to breathe new life into the coolest MMO universe around.

Secret World Legends is far from perfect, but it's certainly captivating. With storytelling unsurpassed in the MMO genre, it features some incredibly compelling narrative and development, set in an atmospheric world. It isn't without its problems, with a dull at best combat system and irritating limitation on the number of quests you can carry. If you're looking for a unique and interesting story, this is the game for you, so long as you can live with some flaws.

The vote given in 2012 also reflects ours.

Secret World Legends is a MMO with an incredibly compelling narrative.

I’m glad that Funcom decided to release Secret World Legends and gave me the chance to experience this unique MMORPG after I missed it 5 years ago.

While Secret World Legends will continue to stand as a testament to the power of storycraft and world-building in MMOs, I fear it will also continue to remain a niche game.

Secret World Legends simplifies and makes more accessible one of the most intriguing and captivating online worlds ever created. Unfortunately, graphics feel pretty old (which they are), and Funcom never managed to find a good balance between a story-driven experience and the MMO gameplay dynamics. Anyway, a good online action RPG that can be enjoyed with some friends.
