Zeno Clash – Escape from Halstedom

by Mozgus on Dec.23, 2009, under PC

Another album I bought recently. CDBaby had it for $8. Zeno Clash was one of the most recent third-party Source engine games. Aside from the perplexing visual design, the main selling point was the first-person melee combat. While not flawless, it certainly conquers all other attempts I can think of, except for Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. Many people griped about the voice acting, but for what it was, I enjoyed it. It’s a bit of a dry script, but they probably figured they could either do a B-movie style dubbing, or try to go authentic and have everyone speak in some kind of false language to suit the setting. Maybe something like an outback accented version of Simlish.
