Every once in a while, a true gem of a game comes along that absolutely reinvigorates my love for the medium. This here is a game that, if I had discovered it around the age I played something like Legacy of Kain, this game would be my entire personality and a formative part of my being for the rest of my life. I am so excited for people to discover this and fall in love with it. The art is beauitiful. Im a games animator and concept artist and this game consistently takes my breath away on that front. Then theres the writing, which is so far ahead of other attempts to tell inclusive stories with diverse characters that it is actually baffling how they achieved such genuinely fantastic story telling and made it so easy. There are exchanges between characters in this game that have actually taught me to reflect on healthier and better ways people can communicate on complex differences. If that isnt world class writing and characterization, I don't know what is. On a gameplay front, there is a lot going on but its packaged in a very easy to digest action adventure wrapper. The team has somehow combined Shadow of Colossus, Monster Hunter, Zelda and also ?extraction looter?! and it all works! It is criminal in how few people know about this game as of my writing this. Do yourself a favor, treat yourself to this game and support game devs who have clearly worked their asses off to make something truly special. What a special, love filled creation. Bravo!

If you're an old BioWare fan, this is what you've been looking for. A charming, brightly colored RPG that combines my favorites from BioWare (storytelling, companion/NPC growth, romance) with a Shadow of Colossus style combat with some magic weaving thrown in. Add some really interesting world-dynamics (temperature, day/night, etc) and I think this is legitimately a fantastic game. I'll be recommending it to everyone I know, and really hope that this title helps solidify the studio's future.

Short answer: buy it! It's worth it. Long answer: this game takes what I see as a lot of great things from a lot of great games, and combines them into something that is both really easy to get into and really interesting. You can tailor your experience to what you want it to be, which is awesome. - The movement is free rather than restrictive (a la Breath of the Wild). - You can always gather more resources, and while that's helpful, there's never a penalty for "running out," they're only ever positive. No punishments. *You have unlimited arrows.* I love it when arrows are either free (like this) or cheap (like the Horizon games). - In almost every situation, you can wait until you're ready to fight a boss, or run away if you decide you're not ready. That progression is entirely up to you. You can even choose to not fight (most of) them if you don't feel like it (kind of like Terraria in that sense). Choosing to defeat them will likely prove helpful in your future endeavors, especially in the knowledge department, but hey. Up to you :). I appreciate difficulty options, because I stink at every game I play, so that's a great thing. It doesn't have to be a souls-like to be fun. You can mix and match armor, and there's no penalty to doing that (you're not missing out on a set bonus). There are pieces of armor that boost you in many ways that you can choose to suit your fancy. Run fast? Climb forever? Be a tank? Can do, buckaroo. The voice acting is incredible and engaging, and while the conversations are concise enough to drag on, there are also tons of extra dialogue options to go through if you want to (or, you can spam click through and skip the conversations in two seconds, but don't, because they're great :) ). And while many people are critical of storytelling and "it has to be perfect," I think this story is genuinely engaging enough to please most of those people. I'm really enjoying it. There's no rush to do anything, ever. You can talk to everyone, every day, spend hours exploring, build up tons of resources and over-prepare for everything, and you don't lose out, which I think is awesome. You could also just rush through only the main quests! One interesting thing is that there isn't a typical leveling system for improvement. But! Don't take that to mean difficulty is stagnant or you don't feel like you ever improve. As you progress, you will find both resources and ways to use those resources that will improve your abilities, as the enemies around you also tend towards being more difficult. There is a very well-balanced combination of personal progression and improvement, increasing knowledge and opportunities at your home base, enemy scaling (not really the right word, as one type of enemy doesn't get harder, I don't think, but different enemies that are harder do pop up in later stages, as expected), and story progression. In my opinion, it is one of the best systems in a game I have played in quite a while. All of this combines into a game I have wholly enjoyed. Because of the things Yellow Brick Games have chosen to do or not do, Eternal Strands is unique, but in my opinion, that is a very good thing. It has great qualities you might come to recognize and relate to other games you have played, but it's not a copy-cat. Again: buy it! It's worth it. (okay now I'm done with the review, I have to go back and play more hehe, things are getting exciting (for the fiftieth time))

Reminds me a lot of spellbreak in the absolute best way, the amount of creativity you can have with the different spells is insane, and the crafting system is single handedly the best in any game, having the choice between what materials you can use makes it so much more fun, and much less grindy, instead of having to gather 593 different materials everytime you wanna try a new weapon, you just use whatever materials you have on hand, each one giving a different look and slightly different stats, depending on what you prefer. The voice acting is also super good, 10/10 overall

This game came out of nowhere and surprised the hell out of me. I only learned about it via a Fully Ramblomatic review (Yahtzee), but the description of it being "Fisher Price Monster Hunter meets Lego Shadow of the Colossus" got me interested enough to buy it. It is an incredibly solid game. its not amazing. its not Earth shaking. However, it is enjoyable, functional, and finished. And in an industry inundated with Eternal Early Access, Live Service, and Rougelike games, having a simple, small scale game that just works and has an enjoyable gameplay loop, and fun characters.... its just... NICE. Its fun and exactly what it needs to be.
