Blackguards PC Review
Blackguards is a good romp with a rich established RPG world to draw from.

Masochistic stat-chasers will find much to enjoy, but Blackguards varied combat is no substitute for a fully-formed RPG.

Great graphics, huge, varied and interactive battlegrounds and a quasi-intriguing story are drastically hampered by shoddy RPG systems, flawed combat and terrible customisation. There's a fairly good game here hidden underneath a mountain of broken gameplay mechanics.
