Nice review! This wasn’t on my radar before but it is now. Looks like a lot of fun

Mort is a machine! Keep up the good work!

Finally, a good review that doesn't subtract value from a game based on the fact that other, bigger games are coming out around it. Mort coming in clutch with the high standards as usual. I think there is and should always be a place for games like this. Not everything has to be "new". Deck 13 has never really built its games on novelty for novelty's sake, and has a track record of making games that feel like refinements and interesting twists on things people have done before, combined in cool ways - did anyone expect anything different? But classic elements from multiple sources put together in a great and distinct way is, in itself, an experience worth having.

This is definitely a put it in my keep an eye on its price list and when it drops to half off I'll buy it to play whenever the next fallow season for games comes about. But currently, I'm in BG3 heaven, looking forward to Spacerim but waiting on reviews, Jagged Alliance 3--which I started but BG3 has vastly supplanted and Armored Core 6, yeah, a new property I haven't heard of before but you enjoyed will get waitlisted.

This is a bit off topic, but is related. I am buying this on my PS5 even though I have a pretty decent gaming laptop that was best in class (ROG Zephyrus GX701 - was around 4000 USD) at the time & came out months before the PS5. I recently bought a PS5 (purely because I bought the new Samsung QLED 85in TV & home theatre system and thought fuck it) and I am finding these sort of games run so much better on the PS5. This most certainly looks like a console game rather a PC one (15 years ago games like this were not really being released on the PC) - and anything that does just seems to run so much better on PS5. I honestly do not see any reason to buy a new PC setup anytime soon; the games that are better on PC (RTS/turn based/CRPG etc) are not very demanding & I believe my machine will be fine for another 2-3 years for such games. If I bought at top of the range PC now that could run everything, the costs would be absolutely ridiculous - I am sick of seeing companies like NVIDIA take the absolute piss with their ridiculously greedy prices for graphics cards. I absolutely love gaming on my PC - but I won't be mugged off. My next games machine purchase will likely be the PS5 pro (Q4 2024) & I believe this will be a point when we see just how atrociously PC gamers have it with pricing; the price vs performance is going to be absolutely wild when comparing the two (It's already bad - but I think this will be a real turning point & a lot of PC gamers will just choose the PS5 pro over a PC upgrade - Ive already done it & think that what I have right now is the best move I could have made). Gaming has been the one constant in my life since I was 5 & I turn 43 next month. I have owned so many computers & consoles during that time & I have never seen anything remotely close to how bad things are now for PC gamers. Sorry to hijack the thread with this - but this is the first day one game I am buying on my PS5 over PC, so I guess it's as good a place as any.

Wasn't expecting a review for this. Reminds me a lot of Darksiders which is one of my favorite series. Probably won't buy it yet since BG3 just came out, and then Blasphemous 2 later in the month as well as Armoured Core, then Starfield in September, so idk when I'll have time to play this but I am very interested, don't mind some AA jank

I am *very* keen on this game as I was one of the few people who had a great time with Forspoken. My main concerns were about game length and repetition here, so your 100% completion reviews are the best way for me to work out if it’s worth the money! Thanks as always, Mortismal!

Is there a section of the game the Deck having trouble running? Could there have been an update since you've tested it on the Deck? P.S There was a launch day patch which explains why the game runs a lot better on the Deck now.

Great to see a game that is not a giant mess. 2023 has not been kind to PC ports this year. Thanks for the review

If I haven't played either of the new God of War games (and have access to a PS5) is there a reason to play this over either of them? Maybe it's not fair to the developers, but this specific genre is a little niche (to me) and not something I dip into often enough to eat up everything that gets released in it.

probably decent game releasing in a pretty terrible window.. personally will keep my eye on it and see if I pick it up on sale later this year depnding what oter stuff is around at the time. Only so much time to play so many games...

Really though to release a game like this right now right after BG3 and with Starfield around the corner. Between work and BG3 i wont have time to check it out, i´ll wishlist it and get on a sale down the line. Looks like a decent enough game, hope they will sell some copies still.

Probably for the best Mort was at 100% before bg3 full release. For his sanity.

Seeing the steam reviews, most are negative due to its crashes and optimization. Which is a miniscule issue for me if it can ne patched.
