    Ok! So I've got 6 hours after the stream and it's a wait and see from me. I enjoyed the first hour quite a bit, but a few issues here that I'll pin :
    1. Networking a single player game was an utter mistake. It's laggy, as I was concerned with in the video on launch day, it disconnects pretty frequently 3-4 times in my stream. Building placement and harvesting lags. This should not be a thing in a single player game. What I was worried about happened, on release day it got a lot laggier as predicted. The small amount of latency that existed during my empty server press access was a sign.
    2. It hasn't hit me with the hook yet. Believe it or not im still getting tutorialized in the 6 hours played level of gameplay. WAAAAAY over tutorialized. We've all played a survival game before bro let us off the chain to explore and feel whimsy.
    3. The production values are great, if they get it fixed up and add an offline mode I'll recommend it especially if they add an abridged "Explore for yourself mode" that deletes all the tutorializing for every little tiny piece of minutiae. There's some interesting QoL in here I like tremendously as well.
    4. My buddy etalyx got ALL the bugs with this game. I got almost none other than networking problems. You may be very very unlucky to the point of the game being unplayable. We're talking it unbinds all your keys levels of bugs when your character dies.
    Sorry the video couldn't be more conclusive, it's a curse of the daily uploads / impressions work. I can get like 2-3 hours into something max most days HOWEVER I am happy we streamed it so I can post here and tell you guys to wait and see if they back off the online only. For now WAIT AND SEE or accept that your progress is gonna get ate by the networking worm every now and again. This is one of those cases where wedging always online was a terrible mistake (I think it always is for the record and I feel like I made that pretty clear in the video) BUT if you're going to have it in there make sure it's seamless, and you can't even notice because this game is gonna get nuked in the reviews despite the many positive attributes that it has because you get kicked from a single player and lose progress pretty frequently enough to get annoyed. As I mentioned you may get some really gnarly bugs. I didn't but I definitely empathized with my friends that got straight game breaking shit back to back. If you like the concepts here, keep an eye on it but do not squeeze that trigger. The first hour did not imply how the next 5 were going to go.

      There is NEVER a reason to force people to be online for a single player experience.

    im actually really looking forward to this. from what ive heard, they are planning on adding crafting from chests. they are justifying the always online because the standard mode allows you to meet random people in your travels. for example, even playing single player, if I go to a specific combination of cards, I could link to a realm where someone else is already playing. which is an amazing idea honestly, but if I never plan to allow that and make all my realms private, why should I be forced to be online? I think it will eventually get patched due to community suggestion, but we will see what happens. I might even try it out since I have to be online anyway.

    Next thing I knew I was coming around in the back of an ambulance. 😬
    Thankfully around 5 hours later I was back on my feet and back at the festival, learned and humbled - and just in time for Iggy Pop! 😃
    Lessons were learned that day, and not just that I was a bloody idiot 😅😂🤦‍♂
    Roofing in California in the Summer just sounds torturous, but in that same vein I just KNOW that after working on a roof all day getting off work in the afternoon/evening when it's cooling down a little bit and jumping in a cool shower/pool with a few tall glasses of iced water would just feel SO damn good!

      "Loose cannon" - a cannon broken from its ties after firing. A dangerous and unpredictable situation.
      "Calm before the storm" - pretty self-explanatory.
      "Pull your finger out" - Cannons were primed with gunpowder in the ignition hole and kept in place with a finger, which the sailor had to whip away just before firing.
      "Show a leg" - Pre-1840's sailors were often allowed to have girlfriends/wives aboard. When the ship reached port, they were allowed extra time in the hammocks - provided they "showed a leg" on orders from any officer patrolling belowdecks for slacking sailors.

    7 hours into the game and I'm in love. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones and haven't had connection problems, also I play with a group of friends and FINALLY a game figured out how to let us be able to play on each other's worlds without that person hosting or having a dedicated server. Any time I want I can just pop in and out of my friend's realms. I really enjoy survival games and this is one I can see myself spending thousands of hours on. I'm hoping only more good comes out of this since it is early access.

  • @karsonkammerzell6955
    @karsonkammerzell6955 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Devs put out a response to the online only situation and I highly suggest people read it if they actually have interest in the game.
    Long and short is that they made the choice earlier in development to tackle the more challenging of the two options with their time (co-op vs single) because of their vision for the game. They realized they missed the mark on expectations and are working on an offline option in response to the feedback.
    My understanding is that get were hoping for that organic team up after crossing paths. The game was never meant to be single player only; you start off that way and it might even stay that way, but there's always the chance to run across others exploring the realms as well and invite cooperation or just a friendly run in (no PVP exists as far as I know).

    I have not seen anyone comment on this, but since I began playtesting Nightingale back in August 2023, testers have been begging the devs add crafting directly from storage to the game. I am uncertain if there is a compelling reason for it to not be included yet, but it seems like it works well in other multiplayer games like PalWorld, w/o a hitch, so my hope is that direct from storage crafting is on Inflexion's To-Do list.
    So far the game has worked quite well, with only a couple Network Error drops, but those came in the course of exploring and resource collection. Since Release, I have not had a single drop occur while porting between Realms. I am sure the network stability will improve because Inflexion has been constantly working to test and improve it.
