Grab The Games: Shadowrun: Dragonfall - Director's Cut

One of the most memorable and unique cRPG's is right here on grabthegames.com and ready for a review. After overcoming my recent pc problems (I had to actually reinstall the windows again) I couldn't be more excited to play this title.

Shadowrun: Dragonfall - Director's Cut is a standalone release of Harebrained Schemes' critically-acclaimed Dragonfall campaign, which first premiered as a major expansion for Shadowrun Returns. The Director's Cut adds a host of new content and enhancements to the original game: 5 all-new missions, alternate endings, new music, a redesigned interface, team customization options, a revamped combat system, and more - making it the definitive version of this one-of-a-kind cyberpunk RPG experience. This standalone is truly amazing with a lot of new features and goodies for the fans of the Shadowrun series and in general the people who love this kind of games. The first thing that I truly loved and I think everyone will is definitely the redesigned interface and the graphics of the game in general. Everything is now much more accessible and the new design definitely unfolds the full capabilities of the game. Furthermore, you can now customize your whole team. Yes you heard me well; customization is available in the game. You can now bring your favorite gear and abilities with you in every mission.

The Dragonfall combat system has received a major overhaul. An all-new armor system adds another tactical layer to the experience, while refined cover and damage mechanics emphasize the importance of battlefield positioning. Complementing these improvements is an upgraded AI system which reacts more intelligently and accurately to your actions. This something that was truly missing of the game and it is always appreciated when the devs listen to the suggestions of the community! Moreover, the story of the game is truly addictive and there is a great balance between action and story! The dialogues and the choices are much improved! Now you can learn more about your favorite characters and have I mentioned that there are more characters available?

Ohh yeah that is true and if that was not enough.there are five brand new missions that are affiliating with your party members past and these missions take you to previously-unseen locations - both within the Flux State and beyond - where you'll have to face challenging enemies and make tough choices in order to help your team members prevail. The music in the game is definitely worth listening and simply amazing! The game as I already mentioned is a gem and there is a great improvement and this title can satisfy even the most demanding shadowrunners with a 20+ hour campaign and a lot more things to do! However, there is a single negative issue I found and it has already been stated by a lot of community members. There is luck of freedom in this scenarios/campaign. The game lacks the shadowrun freedom of hiring your own crew and be an independent shadowrunner!

To sum up, despite the negative aspects, the game is truly a must have and an addictive game that can satisfy even the most demanding shadowrunner. You will never regret of playing this game! Harebrained Schemes did it again!


Verdict: 9/10


+Pretty much everything this game has to offer

-Less shadowrun freedom
