In this game when you beat a group of 4-5 bandits or skeletons you feel like a HERO. Not at all like Diablo hitting whirlwind and smashing mobs in 3 seconds. I love this game so far...very challenging like a Dark Souls type of Diablo.
I would never buy a game for a PC that doesn't support a proper mouse and keyboard system. Gutted as I was looking forward to this.
The mouse IS supported
Ayyy, I was curious about it, thanks for the vid, man 🙏
Much different than what I was expecting... Pretty cool though. Enjoying it so far. Thanks for covering it.
Wish list for sure
amazing, fun and refreshing. I usually play diablo and grimdawn but this one offers something unique and innovative
That's an intresting title. Thank you for the hint about the game Mortem!
Hey Mortismal, have you played Seven: The Days Long Gone? It seems like something that would be right up this channel's alley. I'd love to see your take on the game.
Thanks for video. I noticed from various other commentary the controller vs mouse issue. Anyone else think its a bit weird for a PC game the concentration for use of it on game controller rather than standard kbm ?
This game looks promising AF but how does it not have mouse support being an iso crpg available only on PC and claiming to harness the heritage of classic crpgs and Diablo? This is a red flag and says to me that they are more interested in future Xbox and Sony bucks.
This game should be built around mouse and kb
Why should it be built around those. Support and support well, absolutely. But I've never understood this hate that "real" pc gamers don't use controllers. If the game is designed around movement in combat, a keyboard for an isometric game is usually inferior (unless it involves alot of ranged attacks).
@@jschildress1 Saying that iso games are bad with a mouse is insane because Diablo and Baldurs gate and tons of games like them (like this one) exist.
I am not saying mouse and kb is superior or this isn't a real PC game or whatever. I'm saying it's a terrible omission from a game like this. This is like Gran Turismo not having wheel support. It's crazy.
@@jschildress1 well you can’t even use a mouse in the menus which is absolutely ridiculous and I can’t imagine how that makes any sense?
@@markcollins2704 Did you even read what I said. I literally did not say mouse was bad for iso games. I said explicitly that they are worse when timed dodging and movement are an important factor. Being limited in directions you can move vs the full freedom of a stick in a game heavily reliant on dodging in that perspective is objectively inferior (again, unless ranged combat is a constant factor).
I also clearly said they should have good mouse/kb support, not that you read ANYTHING I wrote apparently
@@SemperSalam And I said they should support kb/mouse and support it well did I not?
check out: you guessed it, free comment!
Yep from what i know Chris Avellone involved in this game so there are more reason to be excited about this game
Hmm well considering the controls, anyone know how this runs on the Steam Deck? Any issue with font sizes?
So, the great era of games that copy Bannerlord 2 has started. Good
What about just melee build?
What is the current status of this game?
Are these check out videos sponsored?
Generally no, if I don't say it's sponsored in the video then it isn't. I'm legally required to state it in the video if it is sponsored, and I could lose my channel for not doing so. Sponsored content will always be labeled as such.
Controller requirement means "consoles-oriented", or rather controller-oriented UI, which is always shit and takes forever to do very basic things outside of combat. Wanna equip an item? Here, look at 6 items at once at max and scroll for a minute till you see what you need, oh shit, you misclicked, where did that item go? Screw that noise.
So I'll give this game a pass regardless of whether they'll bring in M&K control - they are surely never going to change the UI to be comfortable.
I played a bit and it really needs some work. I was shocked to see that it didn't have mouse cursor support. I don't mind playing with controller, but it's a pretty big turn off from the get go, since I tend to play these games with M&K.
Other than that I'm looking forward to play it here and there while waiting for it to come out of early access.
I am interested to see where this goes, the maps remind of pillars at times. The combo of ARPG and CRPG elements seems pretty good also. Definitely keep an eye on this one, thanks for the info Mortismal.
it certainly looks like it has CRPG elements but unfortunately its a far cry from, other than having a similar art style to pillars of eternity
@@nyctimus6015 I see, thanks for the information. Was thinking of covering it my channel sometime, I just covered Fallout 1 and was looking for other crpg’s to cover.
I'm feeling nostalgic for an era where when the release date of a game came, it was a full game and not a year in early access title.
Me too, but, most indie games have to use early access to keep developing the games, there are games developed by single devs/small groups of people, so its fine to have a eyar or two in early access, if that means the game can be made,some years back that was almost impossible to do outside big game studios.
The controls feel so awkward. You can't even use the mouse in menu, setting, character creation, etc. I was pretty hyped for it, but the controls disappointed me. And the story, at least from the cinematic, seems pretty unimaginative. War among gods, bad god wins, you have to stop him.
game has no mouse support LOL
Thats pathetic..
NONE!
The game honestly looks so bad in it's current state. Don't get all the comments about this game looking amazing. The art style is cool, but the game is not anywhere near amazing lol jeesh
mouse support update is out
@@bagg.s6775 Eeehm, well, i kinda agree with you. I got used to it after about 2 hours of pain, it plays well, I dont feel any handicap cosidering its a skill based game.
But lets be fair - is it mouse support when 100% of UI doesnt support mouse cursor? Nah, sorry.
That's... a Final Fantasy plot: collect all the crystals, kill the big bad xD
That sandbox world with all the faction houses reminds me of Mount & Blade. Which is a good thing, but is there any CRPG aspect of this? I didn't see any conversations in the footage so am guessing it's primarily ARPG focused, which if so, is kinda weird that there's no dedicated K&M control scheme. I'll keep an eye on it, but won't jump in on early access (besides Shadowrun trilogy just dropped on Gamepass, already played, but 1 hour turned in 4 last night, so here I go again).
I bought it yesterday and I'm really enjoying the game (reminds me of broken ranks with action combat and a single-player campaign). I'm looking forward for your 100% video on this!
Drop a review if you are enjoying, it's crucial for now 🙏
I've been super stoked on this game for a couple years!! Unfortunately my laptop can't run it so I can't partake in EA. Still following it closely and am very excited for it's full release
I've been folowing this game for a long time. Love the artstyle, real time combat combined with deeper RPG gameplay is also great.
Can't wait for more patches to polish things up but overall - I love it!
Hey Mort, I love your channel, man! Keep up the good work :)
Could you talk about Colony Ship? It's a classic CRPG that's about half complete in EA, and I'm very excited about!
I am interested in this game for a long time now, I have been following it on Steam for years. Hoping it shapes to be good, some innovation to the CRPG genre is the way to keep it alive.
Mortym, thanks for the confident review, positive but fair disposition, and open mind about the future for this game. I will pick this up on your recommendation and support the developer. The developer says mouse is supported and you said WASD is supported. Perhaps mouse is supported plus kb, but it is being refined. Can you press "I" on your keyboard to bring up inventory? Many reviewers are saying that the mouse is not supported, even in the menus and clearly that is hurting unit sales! I am not sure the criticism is fair, but the devs could be more verbose here. I wonder if there will be any companions or will the game be solo only? I saw the game has 16 initial achievements. I wonder if those are good so far or poor? Great achievements design is going to be crucial. I look forward to how the game will be with a lot more voice acting added.. I saw the dev posted a reply to another comment further below, so the developer is engaging with us here, which is rare, it is actually a great sign! Welcome Gamera Interactive and your team of 12! I look forward to trying out the game and supporting Early Access.
Achievements on the way as well as proper M&K
@@GameraInteractive Thank you for confirming! I appreciate the response very much. I look forward to experiencing the game as the development unfolds and eventually 100%. I will look for future update posts under What's New in my Steam Library. Best of luck and good fortune to the team.
I've been playing for some time now and already done some dungeons. Done so without controller and is quite challenging but not impossible. Loving the change of pace from games like Path of Exile.
Really enjoying this game. I'd love to see a Fallout game using this engine.
I really don't like the trend of making all combat "souls like."
Turn-based JRPGs are basically gone (aside from the Dragon Quest franchise), turn based WRPGs had a mini resurgence (mostly thanks to DOS2), but aren't really popular...At least not on the level of AAA or mobile games. Even Diablo-likes are getting more "souls-y"...
I'm cool with a "dodge" power assigned to a hotkey, but I hate having to worry about dodging and blocking all the time. This is why I gear my character up with ever-better loot, FFS. So I don't have to be NInja Gaiden on the NES good.
I recently started playing this on GOG, and I'm really enjoying it so far. It does feel better playing with a controller 100%.
Thanks for the video Mortym. I was looking forward to this game but now that I see a dark souls-y kind of gameplay where a controller is highly recommended... eeeh, it's kind of a cold shower !
Maybe if they modify the controls along the line but right now, it's a no.
Loved everything about this game except the map-movement gameplay loop...ugh, hated that and refunded it. But for those that like that, I imagine it'll be a hit
20$ for a pc game in such early access that you need to use a controller to play it is pretty steep imo. If it was 10$ I might consider it, but now I will probably wait until release and probably never end up getting it.
On my list but not very up there, this isn't BG3, I'll wait till full release.
Think I’m a pass on this one
Why is it the standard to release every pc game as early access? That’s not good
Finally a CRPG without cartoonish LOL artstyle.
Damn, the game just caught my eye in the Steam charts. Thanks for the video!
2.5D graphic game is beautiful.
Reminds me a lot of Revenant and Moonstone (other knights in directly competition with the player).
I noticed unfortunately a lot screen shake and hit stop in the trailers. Isn't it a bit much ingame?
Deactivate both? 🤷
Interesting, I actually had just picked it up earlier today.
Thanks for covering this game. Saw it on my friends wishlist and checked it out. I bought it since its on sale and came straight to this video! Appreciate the quick content!
alreafy on my wishlist im gonna wanna wait until its done or close to done
Started playing yesterday and it's not bad, it's like a sands of Salazar feeling battle system
Interesting, I guess I'll keep an eye on this one
I remember when this popped up on my facebook with their marketing and I automatically disregarded it as a result, later I took a look again and it seemed interesting.
Seems like it has a very mount and blade + sands of salazar style to it. I think it'll either be a very good game or a very mediocre one.
The game has its good and bad stuff, but once you grasp the whole concept, you get used to it quickly and you die very few times. Something that improved my experience was to keep an eye at what the different town blacksmiths offer. Do not miss the chance to use the ingots and materials to craft stronger weapons and armor .Sometimes you find they sell a rare or epic armor which greatly improves your survival.
This game is awesome! I just picked it up
I'm always keen for a game that works well with controller support.
Full M+KB support is on the way
I've been playing it since yesterday. Having a really good time.
This kinda reminds me of moonstone for the goodold Amiga
Deff seems p my alley when it hits consoles
It's on the GoG early access thing too
I read often that the fighing experience Is like a Dark Souls type of game? Is that true?
Sort of
if only the aesthetics wasnt so generic
It is true that the pc port is awful having no mouse support and keys binding?
You can use AWSD for moving and the mouse buttons for attacking, shift for blocking/parry but you can't use the mouse for moving. Currently the keys cannot be changed but the devs confirmed they're working for proper mouse and keyboard support.
This seems to me to draw from old games like Warlords and Moonstone.
Is this WASD movement only or can you point-click to move?
A controller is highly recommended. 05:20
what a shame.
no mouse = no buy.
no mouse ?! the stupid "consolization" of videogames are ruin this industry
Ye the funny thing is i asked them in trailer video if there is a full mouse + keyboard support, they said yes. There is NO mouse at all. Now the game is skill based and when you suffer through 2 hours of learning the keyboard controls, it plays like a charm, really, i had no problem. But I seriously considered refund after starting the game menu, which is probably a record of mine.
The inability to write a coherent sentence is worse. Stop with the stupid gatekeeping.
So maybe a good deck game
Reactive world map? Curious if the clans can take territory like For Honor.
Looks amazing though, definitely a console buy if it makes it here.
Damn, I feel like your channel is made for me. Everytime I wanna check a game I'm interested in you have a video for it and are one of the only ones to. Black Geyser, Sands of Salzaar, this, keep it up man.
I've been waiting for this game. No mouse cursor whatsoever is very weird. Models are a little bit too tiny. But I like everything else. If it wasn't an Early Access I would have probably got it on PS4
Another great video and thank you so much for sharing it with Us,I have been looking forward to more info on it.And I can't wait to play this one,so thank you again
Hey sup M
i love concept/design of this game and im definitely gonna grab it when its out of early access (hopefully it will)
Revenant + Sacred vibes. No early access rpgs though.
Hi Mort, I was interested right up till the point that you mentioned it was controler, I dont possess one and dont intend to, may give it a look if they incorporate mouse
Thanks for this! I was waiting to see how it turned out after following it for years now. Definitely getting it today.
Sacred vibes to me, like a 2004 game made in 2022. thx for the video
May pick this one up. It looks interesting for sure
Super cool! looks like dark souls meets CRPGs
looks excellent.
My concern looking at the combat is that the attack animations seem canned. So it's a matter of watching the enemies to determine the length of time between their attacks, spamming canned attacks for that interval, then dodging back away from them. Since they mentioned magic, are there AoE options for the player? When those Goblins popped out of the smoke together that was a tempting target for a fireball or similar attack.
That is in fact the case. You can cheese every enemy by attacking and dodging away.
@@SemperSalam not cheesing when the game is made that way. Eventually you'll probably hit enemies that take a minute or two to kill then it becomes Dark Souls like.
It's built on reaction time instead of Diablo's style where you keep your health up.
Great job brotha!
