Age of Reforging: The Freelands

初期プレイヤーレベルとかけ離れた強さの敵を配置するのがリアルで優れたゲームだと思い込んでるタイプの人におすすめ 最初の町付近にいる敵に勝つのも不可能（レベル14のキャラクターを雇ってもレベル7の敵に負ける）上に3時間で5回セーブできなくなるバグに遭遇してるのでプレイ時間の半分くらいは無駄な時間になりました 発売から1年経ってるのにこのレベルは流石にアホでしょ

不能存档，我很难受啊，每次重启电脑就只能重新开始，63个小时啊，大佬们，我很无奈啊

原本以为是欧美作品，因为都是英语，结果进去一看人物对话，一种很典型的国产风味冒了出来。在各种妖魔鬼怪横行，连前任冠军角斗士，现任法师塔塔主都是女性的情况下，要给新手NPC加一个“女性怎么能战斗”的对话再义正词严反驳的剧情。感觉像是某种仪式所需要的那样，在走某种固定的流程。

ATTENTION! Stay away from this game UNLESS: 1. You really like this kind of games, where you have full freedom with many possibilities and main story is just an insignificant background, AND... 2. You are VERY resistant to frustration caused by COUNTLESS bugs, glitches, bad design decisions and bad implementation of good decisions, AND... 3. You have a very good eyesight or very good glasses (the font size in game ranges from small to microscopic with NO possibility to change it via settings. Even lowering game resolution doesn't help, as it doesn't affect UI and texts). So why did I give it a thumbs up? Well, because I check all 3 boxes mentioned above. Just to give you an example of what you're getting yourself into by playing this game (I'm writing this 14 months after game release): You're in a dungeon with your 3 companions and 3 summoned creatures. You see a trap so you want to disarm it. Well, good luck, as there are more than ten types of traps but only like three of them can be interacted with by disarming attempt. Let's say the trap you encounter can be disarmed. You click on the trap, your PC approaches it, tries to disarm it and... he gets pushed into the trap by one of the companions or summons who had to stop their movement exactly at your PC spot (you can order your companions not to follow you but it doesn't concern summons). I've been playing computer games since 1990 and I've never seen a game as unpolished and untested as this one. And that's a real shame as this is the very kind of game I've been waiting for and I'm having a lot of fun playing it... when I'm not throwing vulgarisms at the publisher and the designers, that is. Some parts of the game are really great, including: - the system mechanics: character stats, skills (both combat and non-combat), attributes, progression, - world building: map, lore, quests, settlements, organizations you can join and rise in the ranks, - crafting (limited to cooking, alchemy and smithing) with lots of recipes and ingredients Some are not that great: - combat (real-time with pause): fast and very chaotic (when there are more combatants), with terrible mouse pointing (usually what you see you click is not that actually gets clicked - this leads to e.g. problems with aiming and/or activating skills and spells, starting conversation with your teammates by clicking on a corpse to loot, etc.). This problem exists outside of combat too, but during combat it gets extra annoying. Your companions usually act in a stupid way, no matter what default AI behaviour setting you chose. There is a tactical menu where you can manually set exact triggers for all companions and their skills (similar to Dragon Age: Origins) but it's a tedious work. Some are very poor: - writing: spelling and grammar mistakes are everywhere. The writers couldn't even decide on some gods', characters' and towns' names as they are constantly spelled differently even by the same NPC. References to the real world break immersion: Mecca (as in the saying "the mecca of..."), "dane axe", christian crosses on shields (one historically belonging to the grand master of the Teutonic Order) with absolutely no connection between the game world and our real world whatsoever. Play at your own risk!

虽说叫自由地，处处却是硬规则。 一个叫自由地的游戏，没有盗窃（摸红色物品直接加犯罪值而非察觉系统），没有犯罪（前期摸两个箱子直接进监狱了），没有走位（根本拉不开），没有游戏策略规划（没有用，打得过的直接平推） 每个城市半个城市房子没有意义，赚钱预期是随机的（简单任务和困难任务几乎是随机给钱），而且受伤一次基本意味着过去三四天赚的钱白赚，即使sl大法省下钱也不知道钱拿来干什么（没有想买的东西，商店商品定价给人一种随机感） 路上不同等级敌人莫名其妙穿插（新手一出村撞脸22级大怪），毕业装备看攻略前期随便拿，成长无曲线（所以挣钱有何用） 所有的指示都不明确，每个系统似乎都有，但是感觉就像是随机放置。 有一种现实生活既视感，不尊重rpg规律的顶层设计，作者想到哪出是哪出，就好像那个印度咖喱，每一种都有味，混在一起就是坨shi

a must buy for people who love kenshi or wartale and highly recommended overall

This game has potential, but to get a viable start feels incredibly grindy and it lacks some important things like autosave-on-rest (autosave only triggers when you change maps). I ended up losing 4 hours of progress by relying on autosave to trigger when I rested because that just made sense.
