Expeditions: Viking

A very neat CRPG with great replay ability. Even tho the game lacks voice acting, the dialogue is strong and the characters are all well written

I really hate having to leave a bad review for this game because there are parts that are fun. But on the whole the game has too many things going against it. For starters, the game's progression is extremely simple. You have more or less all the points you need in skills and abilities by the time you finish the 5-10 hr prologue, the extra skill points are just to make your attacks do slightly more damage or to branch out to a backup weapon (which you're limited to because of the heavy dependence on your starting stats which you can't change) By the time you finish the prologue every fight feels the same because they always play out the same way, there's no change up in abilities or types of enemies. The same combat over and over again. Second, the loot system is awful. There are dozens of lootboxes littered on each map which each give you tiny scraps of components you need for other things. You could ignore these but then you'd have no resources which leads into the next prob...

Best viking role playing game

this was a tough one to decide did i like the game yes do i recommend the game no not really. the game was 6/10 it was a good foundation to build on

Way better than WOTR.

pretty fun. Feels a bit short but still a fun viking adventure

well i can definitely tell this was made before expiditons rome (also highly recommend) but minus a couple quality of life things the only thing i hate about this game is it's not longer, frankly i was shocked that it only took me 30 hours to finish since the ship travel map is so large and covers everything from norway to the northern coast of frankia and the story makes it seem like there is an even larger scale threat coming in the future for another act but. really though this is a good problem since it all stems from my immense enjoyment of the amount of gameplay i did get, i love the story, i love the gameplay, i love having my own little viking town i get to witness build up which adds SO much immersion.

Love it
