Title: HoD still relevant?
Post by: Aridale on January 08, 2013, 07:24:50 AM
Ive really had no interest in it since it came out but I was on the ps store last night pickin up SoTN and saw it and wondered if its still got lots of players? Is it possible to play solo or is it required to have others?

You can play solo from what I've heard.

You can play solo, but IMO it's more fun playing multiplayer.  And there are still enough people on to get in on a multiplayer game regularly.  You might have to pick up some DLC though.  Chapter 10 seems to be the most popular.

its very much so relevant on Ps3 imo. I usually have no problem picking up a full multiplayer game (6 People)
as for solo-ing, its fun if you enjoy grinding but it will become repetitive this way very quickly.
so if you want a good multiplayer experience, i would suggest grabbing it ;D

At this point HoD is more relevant than CV:HD.
Stupid games with same acronyms... grr...

It's alright... I'm personally kind of burnt out on it.

You can play solo, but the game wasn't developed with the notion in mind (can't even pause). If you want, I'll play with you. (I'm a PS3 person, though.)

Us guys play with ourselves all the time, so it'd be nice to have someone else to play with for once

To me it's always ben relevant, since it's always fun.
But neither can I play online :( nor download chapters 8 to 12.

Harmony of Despair I can say for sure that it's still quite popular. Been with this game since the beginning, and other than a few slow downs of players here and there, new batches of players and regulars pop up and keep the game going. The last I played (last month) had a good amount of players running.

Almost always you can find others playing the game to run with you, and there's also a few chat rooms who have regulars who play the game often (I'm part of one, and was hosting another for a time). I would be playing it right now actually, but I'm keeping off the PS3 for now due to some issues going on.

If you're really into it, you'll find the game has more to offer than what it tells you, such as the various tricks with each character and glitches for getting around. I feel I learn more and more every time I play it, and it's quick so its something you can pick up for a time then put it down whenever you feel like it.

As the others said, you can play it solo, but you'll have more fun playing the game with others.
