I actually understand because at first, when Ashland’s was first released, it was absolutely horrible. Getting there requires a special boat which may have been your issue, but once you got there it was super super hard to make any progress. Did another playthrough this year and it was definitely a more balanced experience.
Since you haven’t gotten a proper response I’ll bite: Yes, it is a crafting survival game. Your progress is marked through the entire game by a helpful raven that will provide tips on how to proceed, but for the most part the game is extremely easy to follow. You start with basic crafting recipes, and move from wood to flint to bronze and so on. The progression is unique in the fact that it requires travel. You’ll move from the starter area, to the dark forest, and so on. The worlds are randomly generated so you get a pretty unique experience every time. I’ve done 4 playthroughs and have never struggled or become frustrated due to being unable to travel to get to the next area. If you were to have issue there’s a bounty of info in the wiki, just be careful of spoilers.
Honestly this is one of those games I will def rebuy for friends because the game was worth $30 when it came out, and now I feel is worth 60. There is a ton of content to enjoy, and they’ve legitimately kept a pretty good pace at development until the last 2 biomes, but obviously that’s of no consequence to you as you’ll get everything all at once.
My one and only gripe is that the further bosses cannot be soloed easily at all. They’re meant for 2+ people. Now, this isn’t necessarily a game over as there are hardcore ways of doing it, but it will be slow, require cheesing, and in my opinion is an absolute slog. To remediate THAT though you could also opt for a console command if things get too overwhelming.
I hope you give it a chance. It’s a great experience, and of course who doesn’t want to run around as a badass Viking?
Nah. I’d say give it a other shot. They’ve done some good balancing on it since it’s release. Also keep in mind that’s end game content. It’s supposed to be more challenging.
Good Lord that was skeeving me tf out. I didn’t realize this was from an actual documentary of someone who is clearly mentally unhinged. By Nathan of all peeps?? So used to seeing his cringe comedy stuff I was expecting a punchline.
“the whole industry” lmfao no. Just shitty AAA studios that can’t function without a c suite fucking up everything to milk as much profit as possible for their shareholders. Blessings to the indie devs, and fuck the rest of them. Hope they burn and give real studios a chance.
Eh it’s definitely longer, gives more spoilers and background on the plot…which imo wasn’t needed. Overall you don’t gain anything except ruining more of the movie for yourself. If you’re planning on watching the movie, don’t watch this trailer.
Actually you can now pwr the most recent update
Nintendo shot themselves in the dick with this game. Any media attention is good media attention and their dumbass lawsuit blew this games popularity into the stratosphere. There’s also the fact that the game is fun and well made too. Kudos on them and I wish them the best.
So I have a love hate relationship with this game. Its amazing because you can mix and match up to 2 classes. This adds for a huge variety in builds and the gear system does let that shine. The downside is there’s about 8 classes, and you 100 percent are going to get any other class drops besides yours, and if your class does drop, it’ll be for some other version of the build you’re attempting. The other issue I have is you can’t use the higher difficulties until you complete the game. The game is LONG and the lower difficulties are EXTREMELY easy. That aside, great game.
It may just be me but I absolutely loved this game. The story is amazing and the gameplay loop is really satisfying. Progression is very open ended and there are TONS of things to do for upgrades. I think one of the craziest things as well is the difficulty and game adjustments. Literally anything in the game can be adjusted, and will tell you if it affects achievements. It can be anything from damage multipliers to weather effects to game mechanics you don’t enjoy. Anyway, obviously I recommend it.
I bought this game on a deep sale and enjoyed it so much I ended up buying it for at least 3 friends. Absolutely in my top 5 and really excited for the sequel.
Eh. Honestly I regret buying this. I’m sure there are gamblers out there just drooling at the opportunity for a gambling sim for cheap, but for actual gamers this game doesn’t offer much. It’s too far on the side of slots and not enough on the side of rng or progression to make it feel like anything other than jerking the lever to play slots. Yes there are charms and such you can get to try and favor the odds your direction, but in my experience it was more times it screws you than blesses you aka real slots. I guess overall what I’m trying to say is don’t expect anything past an actual slot machine sim. It gets pretty old and dull pretty fast
Oh wow I actually had this on my wishlist a while ago and forgot about it. I’d love a chance at the key if nobody else steps in
Friend and I started another run when the DLC dropped.Went occultist and the game rnged me like 5 drops with hellhound levels…so against my will I’m running around with a 15 skill on Hellhound. Dude just obliterates trash haha.
Crimson skies had a PC release in 2000. Amazing game.
Konosuba is my religion lol
I wish these fuckers would learn from Arc Riaders. Give us more options to stay away from sweaty ass try hards that have 12 plus hours a day to play. Make something MMO-esque where we feel like a community OUTSIDE of matches. I know everyone has their preferences but I feel like it’s an untapped market, especially with as much as current gens like coop games. It’s just a short hop from coop to MMO, just have to bridge the gap.
What’s ridiculous too is that they have everything to make a single player. It used to be back in the boomer shooter days. They brought it back but just couldn’t say no to another shitty live service skin store game ‘cuz muh profitz’. I’m hoping we see a paradigm shift here soon of well developed games as these soul sucking ghoul corpos collapse because their profit whoring.
Besides his shit opinions on AI I will forever love this man for having anything to do with Dead Space. Game is still in my top 5 if not too 3 best games. I go back and play it at least once a year.
I’m with you. 3 was great, I played from RoS on as well. 4 was trash. My specific gripe is it was way too much to get decent drops. Insanely hard. Yes you could get a set going but actually finding a perfect stat set for your build was a ridiculous grind.
