My Deathspank impressions

I have been enjoying my time with Deathspank but it is starting to get a little tiring. The constant fetch quest are annoying even with the humor and the combat is very simple. It started off strongly with a stylish intro and some easy starting quest. The dialog is for the most part funny and the combat was easy to grasp using the the four face buttons and D-pad for attacking with certain weapons and selecting food items and potions. As time went on I started to feel like I was just grinding for the next area and killing anything that attacked me and doing repetitive task for the people in need. They even made fun of the fact that I had to do so much fetch questing, but it wasn't that funny since I had to do it. The character Deathspank is a hero to the downtrodden and was told by a fortune teller that he was destined to be a great hero and get an artifact called the artifact. Along the way he helps people in need to maintain his hero status. I found that I liked the guy his voice doesn't really bother me that much. The weapons he uses range from hammer boots to chicken guns, it is sometimes funny to read the description of the items you gain along the way. So now I'm taking a break from Deathspank, I only got about a third of the way through. I may return to it later this summer.
