Serin Fate

I was enjoying this game but it has an issue where saves just disappear. I've lost 3 separate games (I kept trying new games, thinking it was an issue on my end, but it's not). I searched the forums and realized this game just randomly wipes saves and no fix was ever implemented from what I can see. It's such a shame as I was enjoying it.

Tons of stuff not really explained, and when explained, grindy. Tons of stuff different for the sake of being different. How do I get blue coins for spells? Chimeras. Where to find chimeras? Sometimes haha. Where do I need to put these chimeras to make coins, the barn that costs a ton of rare materials? Maybe? The description of the barn is growling and hissing. Alright, lets go to the forest. One shot by grass goblin. Princess said we needed copper gear. Barely find any copper in the mine. Give up and just buy a set of iron gear from the local blacksmith. One shot by grass goblin. And stump. And birds because I can't tell when I've taken damage, how much I've taken, if Moon beats Sun and if Nature is better than Storm and the only way to heal is to go out of combat mode and scarf down apples. One shot by grass goblin. Why can I not upgrade my skill tree? Because it's right click instead of left. And the skills to gather later materials are hidden up in the tree, meaning if you wasted your points on the first rows of perks, well, get stuffed and grind. It's so frustrating. I love the idea. I love casting spells to send ethereal tools to cut wood and mine ore. Crafting my own eq…

The drawing, music, and story of this game really have a lot of love put into them. Unfortunately, the gameplay quality and high degree of linearity make it relatively run of the mill. The witchery XP for indexing items feature is innovative but not that helpful. For me, it's a heavy sale only game ($5 or less); also, be prepared to experience quite a lot of pain getting stuck if you don't use a walkthrough.

Make sure to copy backups of your save folder: "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Serin_Fate\" Your save file might randomly disappear, so test to make sure your backing up works and don't let it get too far outdated. The gameplay itself is pretty neat, basically I just focus on my character and farm development and occasionally progress the story. However, I pretty much always get stuck on what to do to progress, so I focus on my character for a bit and then look at the guide to progress, then switch back to character. There's lots of different ways to develop your character. I feel like if you rush the story that you'd miss the heart of the game. (a lot of my play time is afk time, so I haven't actually finished, but I was close). I lost everything due to my file disappearing and I'm currently undecided if I'll make a new game. I imagine I'll be a lot quicker next play through though.

GREATTTTTTTTTT GAMEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Serin Fate is an imaginative indie action RPG that successfully blends creature collection, farming, crafting, exploration, and life simulation into a rich fantasy adventure. Developed by Vethergen and published by Crytivo, the game presents an expansive world where curiosity is constantly rewarded, encouraging players to forge their own path rather than simply following a linear quest. Drawing inspiration from classic role-playing games while introducing a wide variety of interconnected systems, it delivers an experience that values freedom, experimentation, and long-term progression. Although its ambitious scope occasionally reveals the limitations of a small development team, the passion behind every aspect of the game is unmistakable. The adventure begins with the destruction of the legendary Fate Stone, an event that threatens the balance of the world just as the protagonist is about to inherit magical abilities. Instead of losing hope, fragments of the shattered artifact awaken dormant powers, setting the stage for a journey to recover the missing Shards of Fate and confront the growing darkness. Along the way, players encounter memorable characters, uncover ancient mysterie…
