Okay, so I have a lot to say here based on the first hour so bear with me here. First, I picked up this game because I saw someone playing it and it was reminiscent of the old school RPGs I grew up playing and still love to this day. It gave me an immediate feeling of nostalgia and to a large degree it delivers on that consistently from startup all the way through. Having said that; there are some things that immediately jumped out at me that I think are worth mentioning. Before I begin though; I want to preface this by saying I DO think that if these types of RPGs appeal to you; you should try it. There are things that it delivers on and it stays true to what it's trying to be and you're either going to find yourself in the camp of "This is good and I enjoy it" or "I don't think this is for me." You aren't going to know until you play it for yourself. If nothing else, you have two hours to make your determination and if it doesn't fit you - you can refund it. The ga...

The game reminds me very much of old school retro feel with a skill system most likely inspired by ultima online and with its isometric style, gives it that iconic feel and nostalgia if you are an old school player. Just like the older generation of RPG games, this game will not hold your hands and is pretty much where you have to explore and find the quests in game. I've spent 10 hours in the game and I am currently still in the next town over from Dragonhead and slowly making progress with my skills. There are lots of skills to pick which equates to having to try different builds. Granted some of these skills I have not yet tested and do not know if they are fully completed but then again this is early access. I also like the fact that I can customise my experience based on my preference on difficulty and experience modifiers, Most recently the dev has added a sandbox mode, which is great for those who just want to do open exploration rather than story driven focus. Players have also...

EULA makes it so you don't own what you purchase. Game is absolute shit at the moment. Trying to fix it buy changing all the useless, stupid programming makes the game crash. Do not buy. Useless, just like it's developers.

I get that this game is going fully retro. I wish they'd use modern/standard ARPG controls though. I think that is the most frustrating thing for me at the moment. Also, a lot of terrain / buildings don't disappear when you go behind them, so you lose full sight of your character/NPC/enemies. That can be annoying too. Otherwise, I'm enjoying the game for what it is.
