Guild Saga: Vanished Worlds

I've played the demo version, which I think cuts you off right before you get to the first main hub. What I can say with confidence is that there's definitely enough potential here, so much so that I immediately bought it after I was done with the demo. Admittedly, I thought I would be playing the game sooner but it's been delayed to Q2 next year which is fine, rather have a delayed but amazing game than a rushed and unsatisfactory one. The comparison with divinity original sin games is certainly more than fitting here, especially with the combat system. You have action points, movement points, and combo of different elemental types that complement each other(based on my very limited experience with the game). The biggest difference here is the game being tile-based. The demo itself took me around 4 hours ish to finish and damn was it fun. The combat is really addictive to me, and I like that most encounters required some level of thoughts going into them or you'll have your ass kicked. I also like what I'm seeing from the story and the characters. If you like jrpgs, then I'm sure you'll have a good time with it. My only gripe so far is the UI. The battle formation setting i…

A very promising game, be it story, gameplay or art. The difficulty is reasonable and there are a fair bit of different potential viable builds. Coupled with different decisions one can make in the story, the game has plenty of replay potential. Going by the steady progress the devs made since EA start, this game will likely be my GOTY 2026.

I've always been a fan of JRPGs. Also there's something about the anime-ish faces and pixelated graphics that makes it easy on the eyes for me which makes playing the game a very relaxing experience. The last game that made me feel this way was RDR2. Hopefully this game gets the traction that I believe it deserves. Some more explanations on the game if it helps: - Combat: turn based and very simple. I'll give this a 9 out of 10. It would've been 10 if the indicators on where to walk was a little bit simpler or easier to follow; I also noticed that staff/any ranged weapons can only attack in a straight line which doesn't feel right to me so I hope that's changed in the future. - Character Mechanics (if that's what it's called): I love the customization and the potential of being whatever you want to be in this game. You can be a thief that has some skill with your desired school of magic or a paladin via investing points in warrior and cleric. 10 out of 10 for me. - Story: I've yet to finish the game but I've put out 10 hours (4 of those were from my first night) and it's been great. Honestly could use some improvement but maybe there's more to find out. I'm already impressed …

I really like this game and can't wait for the full release. As someone who really enjoyed DOS2 and those types of games I also found that there are many good things in this game. I have 100% completed everything that is currently available in early access It took me around 25 hours or so to do so. I have only done a full run on a hydro mage but I think I will do a few more builds and maybe update my review later. These are some things I think could be improved upon from my first playthrough. Major: Things that I really wish would change. They negatively impacted my experience the most. The inventory management and the selling experience is quite bad. I think it needs a sell all misc/junk button and you should be able to have the tabs like equipment only when trying to sell items. Many interactable objects are very hard to find. I can walk through a whole map and not realize that I missed things such as talking statues or inactive robots and many more unless I hover my mouse over everything and see that I can interact with that random object. When viewing enemy data you need to be able to see more details! I have no idea how much accuracy, dodge or crit the enemies have. I also w…

Honestly a game that wants to be Divinity Original Sin (1 and 2) very hard but falls short. Lack of good graphics can make understanding pathing very poorly. Inventory managment is frustrating, having little method to view all the crap that each individual is holding. Overall lots of unfun enemies that seem to get bonus moves, better range than you. Lack of ability to sneak, and actually start a battle to your advantage. you can never attack first. Can't use healing spells out of combat.

I love Baldur's Gate 3, it is my favorite game of 2023 and literally my favorite game of the decade. Hell I'll even go as far and say that I love Larian and their Divinity series that made Baldur's Gate how it is. But jesus did this game not scratch my BG3 itch at all, I wanted to feel it throughout the entire game but the combat is just not BG3, the character creation is good and just like BG3 but the combat system oh god does it barely get explained in the first fight. I was wondering what to do and if I was suppose to lose that first fight with the shadows since the game barely said anything at all. Not to mention the game being Steam Deck Verified is a lie, barely the controls for the Steam Deck work and you STILL need to use a mouse to even play the game on their... man what a let down.
