KickStarter Stoneshard - open world roguelike RPG - now available on Early Access

[Sweeper]

kcd allows you to save at any time as long as you have schnapps iirc.

So does Stoneshard, if you have a bedroll.
*can't save in dungeons though

Are you a retard or a troll? Retarded troll? How can you compare these two? KCD has a rather generous weight based inventory and you can basically have as many schnapps as you lije with you at all times. Stoneshard has a tiny inventory and your bedroll takes half of it AND its a one time use item which expires after a day if not used.

Yup. So if you have it in your inventory you can save any time in Stoneshard as well.

Decided to finally play it (wanted to hold off until full release but it's taking too long) and tbh I don't understand the issues you people have with the game. There's enough beds strewn around the world to have a nearby save point basically anywhere even without the bedroll (what do you think all those camps around the map are for?), you can fast travel between any settlements for a relatively small fee (enough to discourage spamming it, not enough to really hinder meaningful travel) and should all else fail, you still have the caravan, which you can park right next to the dungeon if you need to save so damn badly.

The game's pretty solid by my reckoning, the only nitpicks being that itemization is awful ("+3% healing effectiveness" – seriously? Absolute dogshit), enchanted items are by and large worthless (and indeed, merchants don't even pay you that much for them. Better leave that trash lie where you found it), and making dungeons reset after a time cheapens the experience somewhat (the only reason for it is to allow grinding, but the game would be better off without it, IMO). Looking forward to it being finished in 2030 or wherever

I remember the dev visiting here, pity he does not anymore. Guess plenty of garbage to dig through to get some valuable feedback.

Wrong.

Anywho, my two stash tabs at camp are full, you uh, you niggas find them spacious chests somewhere?

I swear I saw one of the niggas in either Osbrook or Mannshire have it on sale, probably same as with the sturdy chests, a carpenter
could be a matter of reaching the final level of relations, if you've checked and haven't found any on sale by the usual suspects

Wrong.

most of them give like +3% to something and aren't worth much more than their base variety.

with how granular the turns are, a 100 turns is nothing and 3 percent on top of a bunch of other percent effects is something
enchanteds in the wild can come with multiple effects, so over a bunch of kit it can become a lot

What? Bulk of the effects is only relevant in combat, and it takes like 4 attacks tops to kill most enemies.

you aren't fighting 1 mook, you are fighting dozens, and if it's taking 4 turns, then you aren't very far along
with your example of "healing effectiveness", it's a thing you'll be seeing the benefits of constantly as you traverse

Yeah, this is always shit logic. It's like arguing that going 3% faster on the road saves you hours in the long run, when the reality is you end up getting stuck at breakpoints and waiting around for that extra time instead.

If a 3% buff were going to make a difference so would random variance on your first attack roll. Such minor differences in equipment are a sign of a developer that can't math his way out of a paper bag.

Spoiler

it does, "breakpoints" is just an exprompt narrative slow-cucks invent again and again to deal with the discomfort of feeling lesser than speeding-chads

that 3% can be on every item you're wearing that's eligible for that type of effect, on top of items that are intended to be the motherload of that type of effect
it's a lot, it's a lot lot, and it makes a difference

Yup you were right, found it at the carpenter in Mannshire. Fucking finally, I bribed the carpenter guild master in Brynn, recruited all the camp followers thinking they'd have it, when it was just in Mannshire all along, although it probably was locked behind a higher reputation level.

...The game is basically complete...

Get out of town, it's really nearly finished? Wow, I've burried my hopes for this game ages ago, along with the likes of Chaos Chronicles.
Please don't hurt me. I don't believe this. Is it?
