To complete the main story it'll take around 15-25 hours at best, since there will be times where you're just staring at the screen, watching guard patterns and thinking. Of course in games like this there are challenge modes, DLC missions and what not which are also enjoyable, I only just completed the main story when writing this review but I know some of them are effectively "Do this mission with only these characters, instead of the original ones." And some are just brand new missions entirely, which means you can get a lot of time and content out of this game for what you pay for it. There are dozens of ways to complete any given mission, different routes, who to use, what abilities to prioritise, this for me is what makes the game enjoyable you can play the same mission twice but you probably won't accomplish it the same way twice. The story isn't anything to write home about but this is one of those games where the story merely serves as an excuse for the enjoyable and interested gameplay, it's unlikely you'll care about what's going on in the story but you'll be more interested in the set-pieces and enemy locations as to rack your brain to figure out the best solution forward. The cast themselves are all interesting characters in my opinion, to your standard Cowboy main character archetype, to the seductress all the way to the voodoo woman, utilising their abilities and having everything connect together to complete missions, is nothing short of satisfying especially after you pull off all five people doing something at once using Showdown Mode. For those who have played Shadow Tactics you will notice that a lot of the abilities from that game carry over to this one.
#Desperados 3 steam key trial#
The game itself is very Trial and Error, you will be using Quick Save and Quick Load a lot, which isn't as bad as it sounds, to complete missions and have everything run smoothly. You do not need to play any of the other older Desperados games in order to understand the story, this game is rather self-contained and doesn't require any prior knowledge of the other games thus making it easier to get into. The first thing I'd like to highlight, is despite Desperados 3 being the "Third" main entry into the series, the game is actually a prequel/soft reboot. Desperados 3 is a Real Time Tactics game developed by the same group that did Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, so if you've played that you'll feel right at home with Desperados 3.
