When i see a indie developer putting in passion to a project. I cant help but support it. With the game being at such an early state. Having such nice looking graphics/design. The combat and gameplay feel good. You can quite literally feel the love these guys are putting into this game and I am all for it. I will closely watch this project personally and i suggest any do the same. Triple A games are no longer for gamers and are not being built by gamers. We have to band together and work together to help our indie developers. Theyre the only hope for us gamers to have video games made with love and passion.

I feel like the comments saying the game is "incomplete" are a bit unfair. Basic, yes, repetative, yes. It's also fun. So, yes, it still needs some work, added enemies would be great for more variety, more interactive NPC's, the map definitely needs an indicator marker of where you are as a player needs added. Other than that, it's a fun game that I feel was well worth the purchase, and I hope to see some more content and more updates. While decent, the character customization could use a bit more, particularly body sliders. Not every guy needs to be a beefed up body builder and not every girl needs to be a busty bimbo. Armor could also use some refinement, there's no real incentive to wear armor if there's no difference between running around naked and wearing armor that says, "this is purely cosmetic." Nevertheless, it has great promise and I'm really looking forward to future updates

I give it a hesitant thumbs up. The base is very solid but bare bones. Don’t get it unless you are comfortable playing very early access. Looking forward to where they go with the game.

Yes it is a beautiful looking game, but it is definitely not early release in the way most think it is suppose to be. But let us break that down first. What is early release? Is it Alpha, Beta or just another name for both? I am 76 years old and have been a gamer all my life. I Alpha and Beta tested years ago when we got paid or rewarded with the game itself. That flew out the door a long time ago . Now we pay to test games and most people don't mind. I sure don't because I'm paying $20 or less for a full blown game when it grows up. lol It beats the $60-90 that some games cost today and there are still plenty of bugs and even flops. So back to this game. I think it is still in Alpha stage. It doesn't matter what anyone calls it Alpha, Beta, Early Release its all mute. It has a good concept clear the world of darkness and make it light again. It has a vast area to play in and explore. It doesn't have much in the world. A few deer a lot of goblins and a few golems. No npc's that I found in any of the towns. But I only played the demo and this for 2 hours so could have missed them. Never did find the pick to mine the ore lol either here or the demo so yea i'm old. The chests are scattered and I mean scattered. You can take out goblin camps and get nothing, you can destroy the stone above the tower and get nothing. You can destroy 100 goblins and get a few potions and arrows but I must say not enough arrows to actually use the bow unless you can one shot things which I can't. The weapons wheel is buggy but the Dev told me it is being worked on. Found a few towns with no people at all. I thought if I cleared the darkness and made the trees in the area white again everyone would come out of the buildings and praise me only to find a few goblin stragglers I missed greet me. That would be a good concept by the way. Clear the darkness and the goblins out of a town and everyone would come back. I didn't find shops to sell or buy anything even though the Dev told me they were there. I found a lot of buildings with signs like a pub and blacksmith shop etc but no shops to use. The fighting is ok but the goblins do shoot through obstacles and you can't lol. Not enough loot of any kind in the few chests you do find. Is the game a 10 of course not. But it can be. Give it time. You did not pay $60 plus for it. Just remember this. We are all testers now days. I live of grid and have been for the last six years. I have carry water to where I am. I have no electricity, sewage or garbage pickup. Nothin near me. I drive once a month to town for food and propane. However I have a small chest freezer, a refrigerator and 8000btu air conditioner, Starlink for internet, an xbox x, a Switch and a 1000 watt home built beats of a computer. It is called solar and it took me 6 years to build the system to handle all of that so I understand waiting and waiting just to turn on an xbox or a computer. You have to wait until the sun comes up and you best be gone before it goes down . Batteries are crazy expensive. I have enough to run the freezer, fridge and internet 24 hours a day. But if it is cloudy out no computer for the day so you wait. This game is not any different you wait and wait some more and hopefully the Devs will come through. You do have to understand this I have no income except the little I get from the VA. Well maybe the Dev is working and doing this part time or maybe it is full time for him too. The point is it is on early release and if it is there to help the dev out to make the game better so be it. Free beta testing went out long ago. Be happy that someone is at least making a game for you to enjoy or dislike. And please stop with all the whining about PVP or PVE sheesh I don't PVP why because there is enough brutality in the world. Team up and fight orcs, goblins, undead what ever. If you want to fight each other join the freaking army. I did for 8 years. I don't play games with pvp that is my choice. The game will be good or it will die and be gone but I have wasted more than $20 in my life for stupid stuff.

so.. beat the game in five hours. not a single line of quest text written.. zero voice acting... one melee attack ability.. one shield attack ability... no magic. no climbing. no crafting... 2 types of enemy... I have serious doubts that a 2 dev team is going to make significant impact on these lacking systems in any appreciable amount of time. But here's a thumbs up because I hope you prove me wrong. not the best 20 dollar bill i've ever spent. Not the worst either. best o luck, cheers
