About RONIN: Two Souls CHAPTER 1


In this fictional world, witness the journey of Kenji, who lives on a small island in a deserted corner of Japan, meet other people and lead the story of Kenji. Kenji, who lives alone on the island of Toshi, one day had to do something he did not want, and his whole life changed. As a player, you are free to designate your enemies as friends and your friends as enemies.

In our game with FPP and TPP camera angle, you can chat with people around and learn additional information about their lives. You can make friends with your enemies and benefit yourself from these friendships in the following episodes. Build the basic structure of your character in our first episode that we release as early access, build the game on this structure in new episodes added with updates. Give life to Kenji, who takes firm steps towards becoming a samurai.

“Sometimes life becomes cruel and asks you to do something you don't want to do. You have to do it. Because you have no right to choose.”

RONIN is a RPG that focuses on the story and completely frees the player into the game’s universe. It is an action/adventure game with its own style, where there are no boring and unnecessary missions which you play on and on to win the same loots. The Kenji character which we started the game with in Episode 1 works hard to become a samurai. But with the end of the first episode trouble comes after us that we can never escape. Kenji is no longer alone, and he can’t be alone until the mission is over. With the following episodes, privacy and many more mechanics will be added to the game. We even have crazy ideas like adding Co-op and PVP modes. We think you should know that we have high hopes for the Co-op mode.

2-PART ROAD MAP


We believe that it’ll be better for us and for you to release the game in episodes. While the story will move one step further with the each episode, with the new features and localizations, we will gain more and more players and show you what we can do. Now I want all of you to be realistic, we are a small team living in Turkey and this project is a pretty big deal to us. If we want everything to be perfect, we have to be organized and move in small steps. Am I right? But we believe that this project will grow with you and turn into reality.

[quote][b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/b] "RONIN: Two Souls CHAPTER 1" is one of literally thousands of creatively bankrupt asset flips infesting Steam and lowering the average quality of all video games everywhere.[/quote] This is a really weird (and really bad) Unreal asset flip from Turkey (I think, it has chunks of Turkish language in it which is not really what you expect from a game about Japanese ronin). It's a basic, extremely badly made brawler... that's only a demo for what was presumably going to be a larger asset flip down the track. First point, I guess, it's NEVER okay when developers try to scam people into getting YOUR money for someone else's Unreal assets. That's what happened here. Secondly this was never a complete game, just an advert, yet there was still a price tag on it! Also not okay. So, "RONIN: Two Souls CHAPTER 1" is partially or completely made up of stock assets, "borrowed" from asset stores and free asset websites. Little, if anything in this game is the creation of the "developer". While there's no longer an up front price for this asset flip, the other problem with asset flips is that when de…

RONIN: Two Souls CHAPTER 1 is a small action RPG that lets me step into the role of Kenji, a young man living alone on the island of Toshi who wants to become a samurai. What I like about it straight away is that it does not try to make me follow one completely fixed path. I can talk to people, explore the island and make choices that can change how I deal with different characters. The game is clearly trying to build a bigger story around Kenji, and even though this first chapter is limited, there is a decent amount of freedom in how I approach it. The choice system is probably the most interesting part for me. I can decide how I treat people and even make friends with characters who could have been enemies. That gives some conversations more importance because I am not simply picking dialogue to reach the next quest. I am also thinking about what kind of relationship I want with the people around me. The idea of those relationships carrying into future chapters is interesting too, although the fact that this is only the first chapter means I do not get to see the full potential of that system yet. I also like the way the game mixes first person and third person views. I can exp…

Игра 'RONIN: Two Souls CHAPTER 1' предлагает интригующее начало истории о мести и сверхъестественных способностях. Визуально игра выполнена в стильной пиксель-арт графике, которая отлично передаёт атмосферу мрачного и жестокого мира кибер-панка, смешанного с японской мифологией. Боевая система построена на таймингах и использовании различных гаджетов, что требует стратегического подхода к каждой схватке. Главный герой, Рон, обладает необычными способностями, позволяющими влиять на ход времени, что добавляет глубины геймплею. Однако, первая глава ощущается несколько короткой, и некоторые моменты в сюжете кажутся недораскрытыми. Хотелось бы больше взаимодействия с миром и возможности для исследования. Тем не менее, 'RONIN: Two Souls CHAPTER 1' оставляет положительное впечатление и создаёт сильное желание увидеть продолжение истории. Многообещающий старт с хорошо продуманной боевой системой и интересным сеттингом. Рекомендую любителям динамичных экшн-платформеров с элементами RPG.
