Cinderstone Online

still in beta so yeh lots of bugs. The jumping mechanic is wack. I wanted to play this and relax but I end up getting angry since I get hit by some random enemy attack that should not hit. Especially, when there's a red circle indicating where the attack is going to land. Even though I am out of it, somehow I just take damage.

It appears as if this was way too soon for a,,release''. Still too many bugs and the camera mode is a drag(no pun intended) Would have prefered a action cam similiar to gw2. Combat could use some fine tuning to make it more interesting,like with blocks/combos/parry... Unfortunately,i dont think the game will ever get a chance to improve on anything,because its pretty much dead already. Plenty of people have warned the developer about making the game b2p. And at this point i have discussed this so many times already that i wont go into it again here. But tldr: ,,A couple hundred''players were promised. We got 11 during peak time. At the time of writing this review,there are 4 people playing. So yea...b2p was the final nail in the coffin,when there are so many mmo,s out there who are free.

Ainda está muito no começo O jogo tem conteúdo para começar bem, quests, grind, dungeons, pvp e pve, crafting porem o que está matando o game é o valor do jogo, ainda está muito alto para o que ele entrega e para ser conhecido precisa estar disponível para todos testarem na integra o que ele tem a oferecer. Uma pena, mas se não derem acesso aos jogadores testarem ou diminuir o valor beeem para outros tereem acesso ele está fadado a acabar sem se quer ter começado.

I purchased this game a few months ago when it was £20 and with the knowledge that it was Early Access and a full wipe would occur before the final release. I could not motivate myself to deal with the many bugs back then and i withdrew from the EA. I returned with this final release last week, missing the launch day, but played over the weekend. The price to purchase has now been reduced greatly to £12. I have played a solid 20+ hours over the weekend and for me i feel that is more than enough value for money. I am admittedly addicted to all MMO/MMORPG/ARPG games out there and I purchase nearly every single one of them, including premium packs on F2P games. Many of the reviews mention the business model of this game as being the wrong choice, ultimately this is the devs business decision and not ours, I do feel though that the initially high pricing back in June created a tsunami of negative feedback and opinion and it may be too little to late with the price drop. The price now is fine but may not be enough to regain previously interested players due to the negative reviews. The population is very low and this will need improving if the games mechanics (planned and current) are to be realised. World Boss encounters require group, Boss encounters ideally require groups, PvP requires many players, Sieges require many Pvpers etc etc. The graphical theme of player avatars and the map scenery is incredibly cutesy. I dislike cute lol....but this works really well in Cinderstone. The camera is actually fine as well once you get used to it via practice. The dodge mechanic is reasonable and is a staple ingredient of most encounters. Questlines and grindy moments as per standard mmo releases. I have yet to get started on the crafting and gathering aspects of the game that open up around lev 20 with a device that automatically gathers resources. Looking forward to tinkering with this. If you have gotten this far reading the above you may now be asking 'so why has Hexorcist given a positive review?' Quite simply because I have really enjoyed my time ingame so far and I believe this game has potential providing the population is improved. During my time over the weekend I watched the solo dev work tirelessly on bugs and issues that were being reported via discord. I witnessed many bugs and issues being resolved, some were ones that had been bothering the team for a long time but with the community feedback and dev diligence these were squashed in the last couple of days. For me the discord and dev activity is a good sign. Let's be honest, it is increasingly difficult for veteran gamers such as myself to find that outstanding new game that keeps us interested for more than 3 months. So many of the releases in the last 5 years have been very disappointing and i am not certain I will ever find a game that I will call my 'forever game' but in an effort to have fun gaming I shall give every release that shows potential, a chance to shine. In summary, this game has great potential and is a lot of fun. I have enjoyed myself so far and it would be unjust of me to slap a negative review on it. At the current price of £12 it is well worth trying out. I wish the dev and his team all the best for the next few months and I hope the population grows.

very good like its good

how could they not consider adding Q + E to rotate your character? or even clicking a button to lock the camera to the mouse movement? stuck right-clicking and holding right-click to change the camera constantly. it hurts my hands no keybind settings at all, no autorun - and to get started in this game the quests have you running A LOT A LOT A LOT!!!!!!!!!! objects around the world will have names straight from the code like "Shrine_Sidequest_2" beat a kill quest? message pops up "default text kill". Progress the main quest? similar pop-up. its just so unpolished the very first quest cutscene glitches out and is really zoomed in on the character's face. I confirmed this is consistent across multiple attempts. Also the whole scene is incredibly strange and doesnt really make any sense definitely feels like something someone programmed but NEVER played also, I havent played this much. the game runs in the background unless you quit the launcher after exiting the game

I really like the game and it has tons of potential. Of course it's early access so there is a lot of missing content, but the developers seem to be working daily on fixing bugs and adding in more content. I was happy to pay for early access to support their efforts. However, if you are buying this game expecting a full mmorpg, you won't be satisfied - yet. It still needs a lot of work, but the potential is there and there is real tangible progress being made every day. Personally I'm confident that the developers will make it all the way to the end so I bought in to early access. I like how when I posted some bugs in the official discord channel, the developers immediately replied. Right now (June 4th 2023) there is a story line and some side quests, and 2 raid-like dungeons. Crafting is so far very limited, and resource gathering like mining is also very limited. So there isn't much to do yet.
