Yahoo! Games Not So Nice to Reloaded

Post by Lounge Lizard »

I came across this on Yahoo by chance. Apparently, it's listed LSL1 Reloaded as one of the biggest disappointments of 2013 (so far).

Although I would've liked to see more fluid animation in the game, I think it was unfair for Yahoo Games to call the remake shallow and boring. It wasn't merely using the same jokes from the first LSL, and I think Al Lowe did an admirable job with it.

I haven't seen any review of LSL Reloaded by Yahoo Games, so this criticism of Yahoo's seems to general and unspecific to be of any use.

I enjoyed the remake. What do you think?

It's hardly a review, that. Don't let Yahoo get up your nose.

I liked the game and was surprised at its anti-death solutions, but there were definitely some disappointing points. The cursor bugs a lot in the inventory, the fact that all none of the inventory has text, the poor animation, for me the over-the-top boobies (what security company allows its staff to dress like Faith?), and I want Neil Ross back as narrator. This one gets up my nose.
There's a new script around: PHANTASMAGORIA - A Puzzle Of Flesh! Check the Script Party topic in the Bard's Forum!

Quite right. Barely even a review.

I agree about the animation. The boobies are not as exaggerated as, let's say, LSL7 or MCL. At least they mostly have regular waists and not exaggeratedly thin ones. Faiths new look and bosoms and overwhelmingly desirable, I concur. I think the only kind of security company which would allow Faith to wear that, or make her wear that, would be a Las Vegas one. Fawn's bosoms are bigger, but not to excess. I particularly am pleased with the body types of Jasmine and Eve. They really went out on their way to make Eve the embodiment of loin-full bliss.

Okay, I'm overdoing the lounge lizard act with this game, but the women are well done. Even I think the Prostitute was well done (I can see past her smoker's face and misanthropy).
