Extremely generic. And I think the devs stopped supporting the game at some point. I'm bored and I received this for free in a Twitter giveaway. A more bare-bones Risk of Rain clone.2 found this helpful
Still selling an EA game for $30 with almost no content after halting development for the game is scummy any way you cut it This game is extremely barebones and not worth $30, not even really worth $101 found this helpful
Decided to buy it despite the controversies surrounding it, and although it wasn't even a little fun, they were still updating it consistently so probably could get better right? HLD was great! Well they gave up, and still have the audacity to charge for it. DO NOT BUY THIS1 found this helpful
Honestly, a beautiful game with so many things missing. On paper, i enjoy the idea of a 3d rougelike risk of rain or isaac type game with a wonderful aesthetic and gameplay similar to the elden ring games. But the news of the games development completely haulting is a deep cut dissapointment, as for this game to be great, it just needs more. More areas, more weapons and abilities, more playable characters, more unlocks, more bosses...and it just wont get it, if you wnated to get this game. Dont, perhaps someday a fully released version will change that, but for now. Not worth it.1 found this helpful
unless deveolpemnt picks up again I wouldn't reccomend it while I find the gameplay loop fun and engaging and I could honestly sink hours into it it's still filled with bugs and missing content for the price it's at it's just not worth it for an unfinsiehd game. Game also crashes, crashes my pc or just has insane frame rate drops for no real reason.
This Game is Amazing! This is exactly what we need in gaming. Just straight video game feels. This is so fun to play with friends and family and solo the solo is great. We are Heart broken that development has come to a halt but please for the love of god keep building this game. It has so much potential. Easily could be bigger than Risk of Rain and has potential to be a popular as arc. I’m sorry to the family of those who got let go bring them back this game needs development it’s got such a solid foundation
