keibo Posted July 2, 2011 So I got this game gifted to me by a friend for my Birthday and all I have to say is that this is fucking awesome!! I've played it for about 3 hours straight and got to the 8th Chapter. God I love this game, the humour is really good and the only reason that I stopped was because my hands were getting tired and I was just casting the wrong spells over and over and I kept killing this other guy I was playing with... let's just say he wasn't very amused after killing him about 15 times within a 10 minute time frame. Anyways, awesome game. Also Vlad is awesome, especially how he constantly reassures you that he isn't a vampire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forbin Posted July 2, 2011 If anybody wants to do today's summer sale objective, send me a message through the Thumbs steam group. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gwardinen Posted July 3, 2011 For anyone that doesn't know, for another hour or so everything to do with Magicka is on sale for about a third of the original price. I heartily recommend getting it! Especially since someone just gifted me the complete pack as an advance birthday present, so I finally have a copy on my own account and would love to play with some Thumbs.

MysteriousLeg Posted July 3, 2011 A friend bought this for me and another friend last night and we played for a couple of hours. I fell in love with the style of the game immediately, but the highlight is the prevalence of friendly-fire deaths and "Aww, fuck, sorry man"s that came out of our playtime. I'm glad that I got it free, and that it was cheap for my friend to buy during the Steam sale, but boy am I regretting not buying it at launch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stewmull Posted July 3, 2011 I love it but its really hard solo and when i did play online the guy i was paired with just said 'boy you really do suck' and left... sadface Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forbin Posted July 4, 2011 oh the game is absolutely broken for solo play. It's do-able, but you need to cheese your way through quite a few fights. Multiplayer requires a good friend with a lot of patience and a good sense of humour. Also the server browser and netcode is attroicious. You're lucky to connect to anybody who hasn't given you a steam game invite. That said, it's a unique experience and a ton of fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted July 4, 2011 The game's execution is simply terrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keibo Posted July 4, 2011 I guess I was lucky to get paired up to someone who was both patient and found the friendly fire deaths funny because I kept doing that to him near the end of our session I'd definitely be up for some multiplayer if any other thumbs are up for it. Today might be difficult as it's my nephew's birthday but I'd be up for it any other time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miffy495 Posted September 18, 2011 I think I should point out that the DLC pack released today (The Gamer's Pack, or something) allows you to dress your wizard as Purple Tentacle. Fucking yes. This will be the first DLC I have purchased for this game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keibo Posted September 18, 2011 I feel I should add to what miffy has said and say that now would be a great time to pick up Magicka if you haven't already done so as it is 75% reduced! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nappi Posted November 10, 2011 Any tips on how to make this game not crash at random point in chapter 11? It gets quite annoying after a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
