Like and follow. https://steamcommunity.com/groups/AUHorrorGameFans This is an amazing walkthrough game, a tale from the Old Gods of War. The All-Father is always watching. A beautiful Nordic tale of the old Germanic gods. The lies we weave, the repercussions of these lies, and sacrifices made to better the world, but with a modern protagonist. A beautiful, heartfelt story all women should play. Mothers especially, and fathers as well. You will love me or hate me. The ones that hate will be because of their own guilt.
x-- 6/10 --x Very rough game. Could have been a lot better if a few things were fixed. The overall tension and atmosphere is amazing, and the sound design is VERY good. However the little annoyances keep the scares away, IMO. - Voice actor for the child is not the best - A few visual defects here and there - Story is not the best, however the lore is really good - Atrocious visual quality dips (water is completely flat, texture for humans looks unnatural, etc)
I really enjoyed this one. A good balance of exploration, with a few danger areas - which were comfortably achieveable without destroying my will to game. The Norse tales are interesting too. The ending is very much not what I hopped for. But i understand it for the story telling pov.
- Reflections bug (visual stuttering) on some AMD cards has yet to be fixed to this day - Swimming looks awful - Controls on keyboard are messed up (mouse speed changes from normal go giga slow). I recommend to use a controller. - Enemies are more annoying than fun to deal with. Felt more like trial and error. Also some enemies seem to always know about your location even though you are hidden far away. I tested this numerous times. - Some visual bugs (but it is really not that bad if you disable reflections) + Even though water looks terrible, the rest of the game looks fine. I don't like the look of the characters aswell but the environment is pretty good. + Really good ambient noises like the creaking of wood. + Exploration is cool + Theme and story are fine, overall, I liked it. Swamp area was peak and the notes were interesting enough. Short game with some annoying technical issues and it is a bit unpolished but it was still fun enough to play through.
