Dead In Vinland

fun stuff

I finally got one ending after 102 hours since 2018. I needed to lock in okay?! haha 10/10 a+ game.

60 minutes was all I needed to decide I'm going to play this game until I've scratched every surface. And I only say 60 minutes because I died. I just had to leave this review before jumping right back in. IF you love story and survival-management, this is a PERFECT slice of pie. Hell, it might even be half a pie, or a whole pie, I gotta play more and find out! ᵏᵘᵈᵒˢ ᶦᶠ ʸᵒᵘ ˡᵒᵛᵉ ᵗʰᵉ ⁿᵒʳˢᵉ ᵃˢ ʷᵉˡˡ

TLDR: I payed 2 euros for this game and it still feels overpriced. The art is quite good but the game is not. It's not fun or entertaining. It is not even challenging (difficult in a positive/interesting way that suggest an invitation to grow). It's just difficult in a very negative sense. I had played about 5 hours before I realized this might be a bad game and it was to late to refund so I tried to give it a fair chance and played over 100 hours just to see if my initial conclusion was wrong. Looking back I would say I have spent my time like this: - 30% of the time playing new parts of the game - 20% reading guides and articles - 50% loading saved games and trying again (see details below to understand why) In my view, there are 3 BIG problems: 1. it tries to be too complex for it's own good (it has a lot of traits that are not that useful or easy to understand and dependencies between the skill layers that take relatively too much time to clarify). Complexity in a game is not a bad thing when it creates added value, but here it just creates clutter (Also there is little reason to play the game again, once you covered the story so all the effort you put into underst…

It’s an interesting survival strategy game, but if you want to unlock all the achievements, you’ll have to put in a lot of hours. The Viking setting isn't fully fleshed out, but the engaging dialogue makes it a great way to spend an evening. It's well worth playing to test your survival skills under tough conditions, facing off against a powerful enemy while managing scarce resources.

A game I never finished because it was about to end....and I didn't want it to. I must say from what I remember, this was out of my usual genres of games I play, but I did have some fun with it. Before I got a gaming pc, I had to content with games that were lower on the graphics end so I was exposed to indies... I think this would be a nice segway if there is a limitation of games you can play based on setup...however it wouldn't be something I purchase now... MoonlightQ
