Heroes Of Avranche

Overall I think this is a fairly decent game. It's also being developed by one person, which is quite an impressive feat. The dev is quick to respond so far, and seems to be actively working on improvements. [b]Pros Vs. Cons[/b] [u]Pros[/u] - It is an aesthetically pleasing game. The graphics are cartoony and vibrant, which is a nice change of pace from the dark and gruesome vibe that these types of games are known for. - The combat is fairly simplistic and easy to understand. Left/Right click, plus 1 & 2 to use abilities. Left click moves the character. The skills that I've used are satisfying to perform and defeating enemies doesn't feel dull. - Each ability tree isn't too loaded up with skills. It's generally enough skills per tree to fill up both of your stances action bars. - The stances offer strategic variety. In the Warrior's case, Destroyer stance utilizes single-target attacks, while the Berserker stance deals in AoE abilities. A simple push of a button swaps between th...

After reading the other reviews, I really wanted to like this. But Diablo or Titan Quest, it ain't. It's too shallow in it's gameplay, the graphics are bland, the voice-acting is meh, just everything feels off. It's very much an alpha-quality product, and who knows, maybe I'll come back, but right now I'm refunding. A few things that jarred from the beginning: * Buying and selling at the shop needs a visual and audible cue that something has happened. * Minimap and map need to distinguish no-go areas vs fog-of-war. Both being black makes it hard to know if you've visited all of the map. * Ultra-wide support (eg. 3440x1440). * Grass! (the lack of vegetation makes the map incredibly bland) * Make loot stand out more on the ground. * NEEEED Hover-over tips for most UI elements. * Difficulty of fights is all over the place. Dodging endlessly to wait for potion to re-up is a pain. I wish the developer the best, I know it must have been a lot of work to get it this far. It's just not...

DO NOT EXPECT DIABLO, TITAN QUAEST, GRIM DAWN or even VAN HELSING But this game is still from hack and slash family! Graphics are poor, game is kinda slow paced (for hack and slash), optimization is more than bad. Controlls have issues, balance is broken (2h waepon warrior who onehit ending boss and have that high health regen that no one have done any damage to me). but this is EARLY ACCESS Actually presented mechanics of building your own guild are nothing new (compare with Wolves of Midgar). But in the end, if devs will gie this game much much love,and dont kill it withj price tag, this would be a preety interresting stuff to play. Also Adventure tool seems to have great potential. DEVS, please dont waste your potential!

so nice , so far , a change for what i know about those kind of games , very reactive , nice graph , music is ok , the lore seems impressive , quite easy for now but i just started to play let"s see further . im eager to see how it goes and of course to continue to play . lot's to discover it seems . impressive work for one dev . Continue the good job and good luck .

Do you like diablo, sacred etc..Then give this dev a chance. I bought the game to support the dev and I've had great fun playing it. Nothing satisfies quite like bashing mobs for loot. Sure it's early access but the dev is Very vocal and takes on board whatever you mail him/her or post in the discussions. IT'S A GREAT little game so far. I'm looking forward to see where this leads. Give the dev a chance and support the game. You will struggle a little at the beginning but the dev has already made plans to make the tutorial more intuative as well as a host of other suggestions. Find a bug, let the Dev know and you'll get a response quickly unlike these AAA games where you may not even get a response EVER. So far I'm giving it a 7/10 & for this game & this is because it's in early access but I'm looking forward to see where it goes. Could be a great 9/10 soon. :-D

Running smooth on Arch Linux so far~ Game is enjoyable in its current state if you can support bugs and like the mood of startup indie games. Note, it is still rough around the edges. Will continue playing and follow future development.

So, it's been almost 2 years and no updates or activity on the forums. Another game lost to the EA void...
