Lichdom is a large game, and a gorgeous one. That’s all explained in the opening half hour, with additional exposition delivered primarily by a scout – the gender you didn’t choose at the game’s start – who pops up at specific checkpoints.Īs first efforts go, it’s hard not to admire indie newcomer Xaviant’s execution. There’s a grave threat facing the world, one that’s directly impacted your personal life, and you have been chosen to wield the magical powers capable of putting down this menace.
Lichdom‘s intro establishes the backstory for your chosen battlemage – the options come down to male or female – which amounts to a revenge quest. It isn’t the story causing the bloat, though that’s not to say it isn’t a problem of its own. It’s just too bad the game feels so bloated. It’s a world that seems ripe for exploration, but also one that’s constrained by its shooter design.
