Erannorth Renaissance

The story mode for this game is insane in its complexity and branches and the way it keeps track of all the different ways it has started or began. For the first few hours i just played a bit, got to an end and restarted and watched how some things did or did not change and its the kind of game I never knew I would love. I haven't even played sandbox yet! Absolutely recommend for anyone who is tired of same ol same ol

Story and prose are all needlessly verbose due to careless AI usage (likely an older Claude model since GPT-6 Astra isn't as bad). Combat seems unbalanced, swinging from 0 to 100 with little leadup. UI is very poor for figuring out what enemies can do.

Erannorth Renaissance is a fun, turn-based, moddable RPG. Well worth it.

it's a surprisingly fun game. Lots of dying initially before I realized you're supposed to get stronger before taking on some fights. The game does suffer from a surprisingly bad inventory system that really should be fixed; others have commented on it and it's true. There's a good number of combinations of skills and traits that lead to good abilities, but it's trial and error. I wish they would allow you to see a tree so you could strategize what abilities you want to build. In general good game, good depth, poor user friendly optimization.

I liked *Erannorth Chronicles*; I like *Erannorth Renaissance* even more. For me, it’s a beautiful, solid old-school role-playing game that captures the spirit of a pen-and-paper campaign well and offers interesting character-building options. It’s really fun. My only criticism is that most of the dialogues seem to have been written by AI, but for a one-man project (?), I find that acceptable, and I’m happy to put up with the occasional AI clichés like ancient prophecies, magical orbs, and purple prose descriptions with occasionally odd metaphors. For the game’s future development, I’d like to see a respec option and more story elements. Regarding the use of AI, I’d find it interesting if, as options, either the dialogues were edited by hand a bit more (to reduce AI clichés and optimize immersive writing) or AI were fully integrated to make interactions with generated NPCs more exciting and unique (and to fully leverage the potential of AI).

Pretty neat
