40+ hours in and: This game is good. Pros: - Huge world. - No brainless combat (you have to learn the moves of each monster if you want to survive). - Amazing implementation of tower defense (you can even use towers to help you in the open world and it makes a huge difference, especially against bosses). - You feel like you're getting more powerful as you craft new items. - Developers have been working hard on making the game better (One year since I bought the game and they are always updating it and every update it gets better). - Controller support. Cons: - Minor bugs But the bugs don't bother me and it's worth every penny I spent buying.
This game is fun with plenty of gameplay. God forbid the devs launch a "light" version of the game you can play for 100% free. How dare them give away 12h of gameplay for free! Jump in play with a friend or solo and see if you like the game. If you like the game, then buy it or get on write a negative review about how they locked their game behind a "paywall".
Looking through a lot of the reviews I want to address a few of the argued negative points: "Free to demo": This game has a fair amount of free content and plenty of unlocks. If you enjoy the game and wish to have some additional things to do you can choose to support the developer and buy the expansion DLC. I see a common thread of people whining about this who have under an hour of play time. You can't complete all the free content in that time. So that makes me wonder a bit. -Seems weird to complain about free stuff. Especially these days when all free games have some sort of paywall, usually more invasive than this. Crystal DLC: A nice touch, I did buy them, I've made them and I don't prefer them to the weapons already in the game free. With that said, I'd recommend them only if you want to support the developers a little more. Controls: The controls remind me of a slightly less responsive Tera (action combat). There's a bit of a learning curve, but not much. It's a typical WASD, Space to jump, control to dodge, left click to attack, right click to power attack. There's nothing super out of the norm here. If I had to take a guess, people are complaining that you can die easily. That's a part of the learning curve and something I enjoy about the game. "Something about no server space": Cant say much to this, I jumped in with friends right off. PROS: -Pretty Robust Crafting, Plenty of Specialization options. -Bestiary Similar to the Witcher, You can overpower enemies if you want, but knowing their weakness... that is power. -Group Play, This game can be really fun with friends. Tackling the harder difficulty fights is pretty satisfying. CONS: -There's a loading hitch between zones, more noticeable to non-hosts and those using a disk drive instead of SSD. -Mob's don't re-spawn quicker in a multiplayer game, so you can really hit a pinch point with some crafting items when everyone needs them. OTHER: -If you want to way-point something on the map, you can only mark within your current zone. Not anywhere you want, that feels weird. -I'd like to see a little more description (on the item overviews) on what things like "Corrosion, Radiation, Fire" mean in combat. (Dot?, Confusion?) etc.
.NO.FORMATING.SKILLS.WARNING. Let's start this review by saying that I got the game in the free weekend after playing along with 2 of my friends. Those two, plus another one that got envy, got the game. So we have a tribe of 4 people now. The fact that I liked the game came as a surprise to me, mainly because the steam store page have a lot of bad reviews. After experience by myself, I could not simply ignore it. Most, not all, have a very narrow view of what the game is like. I think that happened because the player is expected to find out about the world about itself, and you cannot in any circunstance do that in 30min or one hour. The game has no wiki, or tutorial besides the "click that to do that". All the items are new, monsters have weird shapes and mechanics, the crafting leaves you wandering after items all around the world... I started to actually understand the whole concept of this weird tribal world after 3+hours, and there is still much to learn and to experiment with (8.5h now). Was that worth it? HELL YES! See, I like this sort of games. I do not want to get in a exploration game knowing everything like most games do. A lot of things requires creativity and wandering to figure out. My recommendation to the developer, in order to prevent those "I did not understand the game so it's trash" kind of review, you could start by compiling a wiki and put a link to it ingame. That would make optional to the players to find by themselves or having a guide to help through. ___________________________________________ Quick question-answer: Is it balanced? Kind of. When more players join it does get more hard and requires you to work as a team. Solo players will dislike the game since it's very demanding at late game. But you will have a blast with team as it is challenging and fun. How is the tower defence? Very simple as it is right now, at least in my experience. I do it mostly to get new tech and wander in the wild. More could be done in this aspect of the game. Customization? You can paint your armor and that is it. Only female models in early acess. The armors are very different from one another and the color is a plus. But you should use what the biome requires to, you know, not die. How is the exploration? It's where it shines, for me. My only complain is the lack of different monster models, but I'm not that far into the game yet, maybe could be more. Elements are already implanted and most monsters change in their biomes. Biomes must be explored to it's fullest to get all the gear. EXPLORE! How is the character growth? Equipment based. Get a better weapon to be a stronger character. No lvl, no stats, no weird bonuses. It's like... monster hunter/dauntless married with tower defence genre. Is it pretty? To taste, really. I like it. Everything matches pretty well. My only disgust is living walls. How is combat? It's fast. The more monsters the more challanging. "Bosses" are a fun thing to do in team. I like the dodge a lot. I never tried to play with heavy armor, so I can't talk about that. There are ranged weapons in one biome, I believe. But never tried it.
I find this game unplayable because it is unoptimized. Regardless of what settings I use, I cannot get the game to play smooth (I use a GTX-1070, and an I6700k at 4.4 GHz) I hope the devs fix this, I would really like to play the game. 18OCT18 EDIT: The devs worked with me for over a month and have solved the issues I was experiencing. Game is very enjoyable, and I would definitely reccomend!
