8 months later and the game is still a mess, with no signs of adding content or improving anything. Literally 8k ppl playing this. What an embarrassment.

Don’t buy anything from Krafton Inc. They are extreme thieves who steal from developers

The game is nice but, after a while, it's extremely tedious and it feels like a chore. Even with the optimization with the best pals in base, 99% of the time is management and running around farming 150 different types of materials. The map is absolutely gigantic and even with the fastest birds in the game, it takes 10s of minutes to go from one place to another. Also there are so many ways to improve these pals and it really feels overwhelming to manage everything. For every Pal you have: level, IV, souls, condensation, loyalty, rng on attack moves and special perks that you need to manage to have a somewhat "good Pal" to fight.

Terrible DLC. They make you use logic and deduction and after that, they use a crappy excuse of a clue that makes ZERO sense and not even with 5 helping hints you can't understand what is happening. Don't bother. The other DLC are way more fun and interesting.

The game is nice if you are a filthy casual, like me. But these guys can’t resist doing 1 good season and the next 2 or 3 complete garbage. Even though you only need the game with DLC (which both are like 30€ on sale, not bad), the game is turbo focused on microtransactions. Bad story, bad gameplay overall (much more fun in POE1 and Last Epoch), bad progression, you really don’t feel any accomplishment from getting « the good stuff ». It really just adds some levels on that stupid Pit.

Even after doubling the amount of end-game content from launch, it still feels shallow and boring after a while. But right now, the new season pass takes the cherry on top. Trash rewards, trash progression, trash everything. (Like this stupid game)

Such a good game overall. They’ve really nailed the open-world medieval theme as it’s basically a combination between Bannerlords and Kingdom Come. The village system is really nice, once you get a few peasants it’s very satisfying to see the progression. You can automate basically every resource, item and even the construction of buildings. From the very first days of it’s release, you can tell that they’ve added a lot of content and QoL.
The combat mechanics are fine, no matter how strong you are and your armor, getting more than 3 enemies on you, it’s a death sentence.
On the other hand, the combat itself is scuffed af. No matter what weapon you use, it feels like you bop them with a club. It’s a lot of space for improvement.
The very bad part of the game consists of the many bugs present literally everywhere and it can really be an annoyance sometimes.

Overall it’s a pretty solid game and I definitely recommend playing it with someone in coop as it has a lot of fun to offer.

A really nice game overall, needs some polishing and more content, but for now it's a nice addition to my list.

Also, it's good to support small devs from time to time, as the big names don't give a single fck about players anymore.

After playing 2 seasons, I can say that this game is NOT good. Yes, It's fun to play for a while, nice to see those dmg numbers go up, kill everything instantly. There are some interesting mechanics and the action is immediate, no waiting to find the mobs.
BUT... it's super unoptimized, zero QoL, quite a few bugs, and most of all, everything feels sooo boring after getting strong. There is no information how to progress after a while, you have no idea how to unlock certain areas and most of all, they completely change damage numbers every season and they prefer nerfing everything to the ground. Also, when you get a grip on the game, you realize that there are just 2-3 builds that lets you advance and it really doesn't matter which path you choose, you will eventually end in the same place.

By reading the reviews from before my purchase, it seemed that the game was more fun and could hit some crazy dmg numbers. Now it's barely hanging on..

Very nice and cozy bullet hell with some farming mechanics. Not very difficult and fun to play around with all the different characters. Keep it up devs!

Immensely unoptimized, game runs like literal trash, lots of graphical bugs.

Also, after the latest Nvidia GPU update, the game crashes after 5 minutes of playtime. This will be the last time I will ever buy anything from Sony. Every single time it's the same story.
