Legends of Wasteland

When I first started off, I began wondering "Why is this mixed rating? This looks to be an incredible game!", but the more I played, the more I realized why it has mixed - and it's actually the correct rating for this. The best way to put this is that it's an Idle Path of Exile. Speaking as someone with 4500 hours in Path of Exile and loves Idlers / Incremental type games, this sounds like a godsend, but it's really not. There are more problems with the game than there is good. The #1, most blatant issue is the game is barely in English, almost like everything was hastily Google Translated or done by someone with no concept of what these words mean in video games. You can get a "good enough of a guess" understanding of most things, but some make no sense at all: "Terrain Damage" is a good example. As far as the game itself, it's trying to do too much while also not doing enough to get you situated. Within the first 2 acts, you're going to have a bunch of mechanics thrown at you immediately, including pets that join you in combat, skill gems, skill gems for your skill gems, gear, guild, shop, crafting (both a forge and items), the skill tree itself which is a rough copy + paste o…

"Mixed" I think is a befitting rating. If I could sideways this I probably would, though it's also the case that if I could return it at 2-3 hours (instead of <2) I would probably return it. The concept here I think is great; the issues are in the execution. Pros: Dev has been busy with regular bug fixes Bringing POE skill tree to an incremental game is an interesting notion The array of systems - in theory - provides a lot of options to customize Cons: Balance feels off - the majority of fights are either too easy or too hard and imo it's a bit too hard to find the sweet spot of where progression will be challenging but rewarding. Tooltips/info are a bit lacking at times. The grand skill tree doesn't help when I'm not entirely sure what is/isn't being buffed. Unless you specifically spec into it, the basic 'attack' option feels incredibly weak so maybe I should just idle and not actively play at all? I had played the demo before buying and was sure I was on the cusp of unlocking...something...that brought the game together. But no, it's a game with a bunch of systems that sound cool, but can't really elevate it past its limits. I'll revisit this review at …

It is a pity that this game has a 'mixed' review as of the writing of this. It is really fun and unique once you get the hang of it. I really hope the develloper does not get disheartened because with a little more polish, this could be one of my all time favorite games. I can't find any other idle games like it.

good

I'd recommend waiting a while until multiple updates have been done and the translation has been cleaned up until you purchase this game. The game makes no sense and is hard to understand with such things as "projectile speed increase decrease % damage of projectiles multiply (more) by the absolute value of the projectile modifier" (thats the modifiers of an item) plus to add insult in injury theres no explanation to what this means, this is also across the game as in the talents you get such things as "projectile speed increase decrease x%" and also uses phrases like more more and gives no explanation. The item system is awful and makes games like POE1/2 seem beginner friendly, the crafting system doesn't allow you to target specific modifiers its just rng gamble which can easily make an item useless. Added onto this the stats on items and modifiers make no sense and make making a viable build rng and confusing Classes in the game are useless, theres currently 3 main classes each with 2 sub branches and those each branch once more. If you dont start warrior then good luck getting anywhere in the game. The talent tree boasts about been huge but 99% of it is useless and…
