I bought this game as vanillia in oct 2020

I am tired of seeing that content patches, I am too old to wait 10 for a game to be released

It was supposed to be released within 2 years, not it is something like 3?

Am I seeing another DayZ, except this one should contain the ending?

While the game is good, the developers are doing weird s****

=== THE INITIAL NEGATIVE REVIEW ==

I did not pass the game yet, I guess I am quite early on actually, but as I have completed other rpgs I guess I may share my initial thoughts.

While the game is... story rich, the story itself is overdone in a way I feel exhausted by amount of text I should read. At random some of the text scripts are voice covered, other are not. We are playing a villain character that make it more awkward rather than interesting since you get punished for actually being a-little-good. Combat system is clunky compared to Divinity or BG3 so I do not consider it a thing I should judge there, and if there is no gameplay thing to judge, then the wall of text is left on the table and its just decent.

Just finished reading a 10 minute dialog? Your follower wants to speak with you... oh give me a break...

I may change the review as the game will progress, but so far I am overhelmed.

This is however a best storyshaping from dialog choices game so far I guess, the mechanism seems kind of primitive (the choices influence faction reputation and then it probably creates other story paths), but it is working

=== A NEW, POSITIVE REVIEW ==

After a bit of playing I noticed that this game reminds me a Septerra Core in terms of overall world / drawings / izometric view.

This helped me to find the way how to play this game. At the begining it was not the best game mostly because too much informations were dumped on a player, but with time it become more streamlined.

Its overall a solid title that is actually a different game than DoS2 or BG3, to give more context:

Itemization 4/10
Items are not really that useful, there is nothing specific to grind

Gameplay: 5/10
A lot of things are quite outdated, ie. the loading times of areas are way too long and it happens too often.
The spells can be shaped in many ways which is cool, but we are limited by knowledge stat with how many mods we can apply to a spell.
Spellcasting and overall fighting is clunky, I finished the game with speed mode on all time.

Lore 9/10
This game is about the storytelling, what can I say... I only think that some of the choices that we do are sometimes forced.

I guess I will do a NG+

Another "Kill 0/3 kobolds" game since the very first campaing quest

I will write this having in mind that we live in 2016+

Is this Fable? No
Is this Zelda? No
Is this Devil May Cry? No
Is this Prince of Persia, Tony Hawk, Spiderman? Nope

This game is a clone of many different games and it's easy to see that for many people. Don't get me wrong - it's a solid game, there were no bugs, game goes smooth even on notebook, cinematics looks nice for the date of release (and for now), but... It is more like Soul Reaver (puzzle) mixed with something like retarded version of Devil May Cry (button smash).

In short:
Go from A to B, bring N parts of X, kill Y,Z, go back, return back, blablablah
Don't expect anything except objectives driven by half minute cutscenes, if you like a good storyline, better don't play it because many interesting characters were just ignored - they have no background at all.

Now go kill satan and bring a beer

This game is far way better than it looks, I regret that this costs only 0,30 euros because this game deserves to give more profit to its creator. If you are looking for some oldschool RPG with funny dialogs then I belive this is best deal for you :)

Could be more challenging sometimes, when you are lost in some maze-type maps it is getting too easy to overextended character level for current area, but fight model (and leveling) is well designed itself :)

BE A HERO, GO KILL SOME SLIMEBALLS :D

Fresh player review:

Pros:
- good graphic, maybe not as good as you can expect in 2015, but many elements looks rusty and generally raw. Nothing to complain I guess
- you can feel that atmosphere when you are in closed rooms with low battery in flashlight
- gas mask is one of the best ideas overall, it can make you nervous, but all these breath sounds are realistic. You will like it if you don't expect easy-mode walk

Cons:
- Damn ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ linear, it makes this game boring
- Invisible walls one after one in so obvious places where there SHOULD NOT be
- Most of time I feel like in scripted maze with only one-way-to-go

Anyway I think that this is good game, especially for Stalker series fans

If you look for an old game where you wll back to play and enjoy this like for the first time then you are in right place.

This game is awesome, the developers are very user-friendly (even if you play as F2P you can get everything except skins (it does not include Prime Warframes which are elite version of character, the real-money platinum is very cheap and there are sometimes events where you can get it w/o much effort)).

However this game is little recursive, you can feel bored sometimes, but if you like the concept of galaxy wars this game should never make you bored. Grinding in this game is like other dimension of grind-based games; Still - you are looking for resources to build you weapon, but you will know how much time it will take, you will find awesome graphic effects (check Frost).

I remember when I was playing Volt warframe, defense mission as my team were dying as hell and I had only time for using my speed skill to be EVERYWHERE EVERYTIME to revive them (Volt is not support, but with his abilities it can really save the ass). Team composition changes everything in this game
