Oaths of Light is an amazing game! I truly enjoyed my time in playing on stream! The developer is very receptive to feedback and even took the time to hang out in a 5 hour and 3 hour stream respectively in order to gather feedback - much of which was implemented almost the day after (petting a horse, some camera fixes) as well as other bug fixes that are in the works (text fixes, better audio balancing). The game adopts an amazing "your choices actually do matter" approach, as opposed to the illusion of choice many other "choice" games have. From things such as [spoiler]having a different fight depending on if you did or didn't free something[/spoiler], [spoiler]NPCs being captured if you don't fight the correct enemy[/spoiler] to even [spoiler]those NPCs being killed irrevocably if you don't succeed in specific combat fights. [/spoiler] There are absolutely things to improve, many of which the developer has confirmed are upcoming in the roadmap though minor adjustments such as the UI feeling a little clunky and difficult to navigate, not in terms of difficulty but more visibly. Once Chapter 1 is polished up, I could definitely see this game doing well as a Crowd-funde…6 found this helpful
Oaths of light is a charming turn based rpg, living out the hay days of rpg games not today slop of games. Story is pretty straight forward and unique in it own little way. Also fair few side quests to do which add some story and elements to npc / villagers. Combat is a solid formula, you have X amount of time to do your actions in, either swinging weapon, using special skills or items. Then enemy takes there turn and if you time it right you can block some of the incoming damage to reduce overall hitpoints you lose. Graphics are good and nice to look at, I am not one for all these realism like graphics I still rather bit of a cartoon tint to my video games. Overall it a fun game and worth a look at. A solid indie rpg game.4 found this helpful
This game criminally flew under the radar. Sure, it’s not GOTY material, but it oozes charm. The story is engaging, set in a medieval, magical world, with a surprising late-game twist that reshapes the atmosphere (no spoilers!). Exploration and combat are solid, reminiscent of old-school JRPGs. Choices matter, and key decisions let you follow your moral compass. Just give it a try, this game hooks you right from the start!2 found this helpful
If you are a fan of old school Zelda, this may be up your alley. The combat has blocking mechanics and positioning strategy, making it pretty unique in the turn-based RPG category. Above all, you can tell it's a labor of love. It might not be perfect but it's fun for sure <32 found this helpful
Interesting start, neat combat system.2 found this helpful
Very solid game. Played the demo a while back prior to official release. It has turn based combat but you have to manually block and use potions etc in real time. Took some gettin' used to. Watch out for the snakes, The graphics are solid for what they are. The music is nice as well. You will get lost at times if ur the type to complete just about every quest. All in all, not bad for the price tag. Gameplay Impressions: https://youtu.be/TvPW6bBUn4E1 found this helpful
