  • 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?








  • 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.



  • 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









  • It astounds me that we live in the day and age that the data is fucking there and corpo shits can just lobby and pay off actual progression. I’m quite sick of it honestly. It’s clear they’ve made social media as addicting as possible and don’t give a shit about the effects it has on anyone, they only give a shit about their bottom dollar. I don’t even know what the fuck kind of hope we’re supposed to have at this point. I’ve kept my kids away from it thankfully but that doesn’t mean shit as there are countless other parents that are fucking dumb sacks of shit and/or don’t care.
