Oof. Time goes by fast.

Don't worry. It's only been 4 years since it released in Early Access on steam. I had to double check the store to make sure, because I was like "how the fizzity fuck has 7 years passed since I bought this? Do I have dementia already?" Then my existential dread diminished slightly.

Yay, maps! I know a lot of purists hated it - and I can see their point - but back when I played years ago, you found paper and coal in the first level, so the opportunity was there for the Char. And I always sucked at drawing maps myself, so I welcome this change.

Now I just need to re-learn how to play, can't take more than about 15 hours....

Good it's still alive, but I'm not touching it again till it's closer to completion. Have more than 144h in it already...
Same. Every time I picked it after an update, the mechanics were updated to the point it felt I was back to square one. Really wanna play this, but will hold until 1.0.

I'm counting from the kickstarter.

Well, it's a nice compromise at least, since you have to find them and it looks like it doesn't show you were you're at, so if you're bad at navigation you're going to end up lost anyway.

Grid Cartographer is a great help in this game. Though the caves aren't as easy to map on a grid as the corridors. I think Hidden Asbestos added rounded walls and corners after I requested them for this game :)

The look of this game is super cool. Really wish BG3 will resemble this aesthetics.
Gameplay is garbage though.
It does take some time to get used to controls, they are just different than most of the stuff you have most likely played. Also, lots of people try to play this like they would Diablo - that won't work and you'll die and have a bad time.

I've been waiting four years just for them to implement the magic system...

This game is slower to the finish line than Grimoire

And don't forget that this was supposed to be a "demo" game for their open-world RPG they planned to deliver in 2013 on a 100k budget :lol:
it will release when Grimoire 3: Golden Baby's Midlife Crisis released, along with its expansion Grim: Golden Baby's 20 Years Old Student Debt

It has some of the best RPG combat out there if you spend the time to learn it. Also layers. In this game, you finally can become a walking wardrobe and laugh as enemy stick fails to deliver any impact past your shirt, gambeson, doublet, chain vest, tunic, and breastplate, while simultaneously pondering why other RPGs do not feature a playing dolls mechanic as powerful as this one.

Allegedly they will be releasing an update "soon" with magic. Most updates tend to be >6 months apart, so maybe we'll get it by Christmas. They have a recent demonstration video of some very basic magic, and there are very early videos showing some skeletons getting telekenetically blown over/apart. That aside, the most recent update has killed my frame rate. Whereas before I could max out settings and get >45 FPS, now I need minimum settings to get no significant performance issues. Improved loading times be damned if the game performance suffers. The AI feels a bit better, and two-handed swords are improved, but I notice that enemies will much more frequently get their arms tied up on themselves. Overall, I don't regret my $15 donation to the arts. The game is fun as is. If they continue to deliver it's just gravy.

I have never seen a vaporware like that since duke nukem forever.
I think that sui generis will never exist after Ks campaign 7 years ago.
