Elengard: Ascension

I cannot believe this is a one man show. This game has got quality on every level. Dude's like the main character from Grandma's Boy with his video game making skills.

If this game were a person they would be a Dungeon-Master with a doctorate in the same from Harvard or better yet Oxford or a Wordsmith at the Royal Academy of Arts & Sciences with another doctorate in Female Pleasure studies from Cambridge or Harvard. A must buy if not for you then for the pizza you never bought your dog or cat or for the seed you never fed those always starving wild birds.

So I refunded this, but not because it isn't good. Its really good actually. There is just so much here and it was alot to take in and I wanted to wait for some updates and when I could be more dedicated to play it. I really am wanting a controller support update. I can use the steam controller set up, but there are just so many options it seemed overwhelming. I continue to follow and look for updates.

I see a lot of potential in the game already, especially the customization with spells and combat! Graphics/sounds are also pretty good. I just think the regions beyond the starting area need more NPCs, or things beyond creatures to kill. Maybe more quests overall. Some kinda of fast travel system or mounts or whatever lets you move back sell/rest/craft would be really helpful! Lastly, as much as I like all the customization, I feel the game heavily rewards focusing on certain skills (like feyzir magic) and attributes cause the more you invest in that skill the more damage you do, plus unlocking higher tier skills etc... So it would be cool to see more ways to mix and match skills without gimping your build much. I don't see a lot of incentive to make hybrid builds (like a battlemage) while levelling for example, but ofc I could be wrong.

I'm recommending it because i see a good amount of potential and they have genuinely made the game better and regularly updated it while it's been early access. I'll say right now that they get stuff right more than wrong but there are some gripes i have. For 1, it is a VERY hard game on standard diffeculty, almost to soulslike territory but without the standardized features you come to expect with a soulslike that makes it percision based. The levels come very vey slowly which can really cause problems, and they used to have the ability to pick a prebuilt style class that made the beginning a bit easier, but now you have to be INCREDIBLY careful about where you put stuff to start or you end up trapped behind an almost endless grind to get where you need to be. They also don't really tell you how almost any systems work, you kind of just have to look it up, and even then, being an indie there isn't a lot of faq. so you end up confused a lot. For example, i was running a druid with a staff, and a mace and shield, and realized i couldn't use magic with the mace and shield so i just figured that you can only use magic with a staff, then for whatever reason the game unequipped my shiel…
