Every single negative review is made from an account with 0 other reviews, its safe to assume that those are not honest opinions.
After spending considerable time with this game-
I'm quite certain that, amidst the many SJW troll reviews, there's a decidedly negative tone even if you remove them.
This is because frankly the game is extremely lacking. It's lacking in combat options, character development, writing, audio, graphics as well as critical gameplay elements such as pacing. One of the most puzzling facts is the 'choose your own difficulty' approach that leaves it completely a mystery how many encounters you are supposed to fight.
Even if we look past the limitations, given that this is essentially a 20-year old game, you will find that even its contemporary competitors offer more. One of the most glaring omissions that completely devastates the already bad, solely mouse-driven (decline) UI is the utter lack of hotkeys to enter combat options. Every Wizardry game had those. Even Lands of Lore, the Skyrim of dungeon crawlers, had them. The game is literally more primitive than Lands of Lore in terms of UI design. That's just deplorable.
The game looks much, much worse if we compare it to contemporary dungeon crawlers: Elminage Gothic has brilliantly balanced items and classes as well as challenging maps that are interesting to traverse; the same can be said more or less for every newer dungeon crawler.
This game is nothing more but a sad joke and it's apparent that
everyone here praising it is doing so to be ironic. I find this deplorable.
The one thing I admire in man is his ability to critically examine when he is wrong. I was enthusiastic about this game. Even during the beta I really hoped the feedback given would translate into a playable experience. I understand that it's very funny to pretend that it's a good game for laughs, or that you want to try to feel as if your $40 weren't wasted on trash but I implore you to foster actual, honest discussion. No thread about this game even honestly talks about the dozens of glaring problems and feature omissions; the issues with essentially everything.
Imagine, I even read someone praising the music and sound effects! I understand that you like to troll but for goodness's sake, is it /really/ that funny to run around saying "The sun is a really cold star!"?
This game is an utter travesty and I daresay you are a moron if you enjoy it, or simply lack experience with other dungeon crawlers/blobbers, which is also deplorable.
aweigh, as our resident dungeon crawler, how do you feel about this game?
