Very cozy fishing game with some horror elements
Really fun boat game. Addictive but somewhat short.

"어? 본편만 구입하기에는 조금 비싸네? 본편 플레이타임이 얼마 안 된다고 들었는데, 이럴 거면 돈 조금 보태서 완전판을 사는 게 이득 아닌가?" 아니다. 가성비가 구리긴 하지만 그래도 본편만 사는 걸 추천한다. 페일 리치는 별볼일 없고, 아이언 리그는 너무나도 짜증만 불러일으킨다.
jogo mt bom, com muito conteúdo, MUITA COISA PRA FAZER, ótima rejogabilidade
Idunno, for how much this game's marketing relies on Lovecraftian aesthetics and unsettling vibes, it's not scary or difficult, it's a cozy game to turn your mind off to. If you were expecting a game that triggers your thallasophobia and/or taps into an oceanic cosmic horror niche, then you'll be very dissapointed. It's good, if a little stale past the first 2 areas, but with how poorly the marketing actually portrays the game, I can't recommend it. If you want a picture of the horror-ish aspects of the game, then know that you will always have to go very, very much out of your way in order for a dangerous creature to appear, and once they do they're a minor inconvenience, or barely a threat late-game. (The actual horror comes from the suspense of not knowing what's out there, but if there isn't an actual pay-off for that suspense, then I think it falls flat the moment the player releases that.)
Dredge was recommended to me by a friend because he said that this was one of the best games he had ever played. You know what? He was right. I'm incredibly surprised by how much I liked this one, and even more surprised that did a 100% run for it. While Dredge can be very repetitive sometimes, and believe me, going for all of the fish and their cursed forms was rough at times, I was a fun time from start to finish. The game has incredible progression, atmosphere, and if you look into it, even a pretty interesting underlying story. I'd also have to strongly recommend the DLCs as well, especially if you liked the main game. While The Pale Reach is much shorter, I liked the atmosphere and the change of environment. The Iron Rig has far more main game bonuses for getting it, including another full upgrade to your ship. The only issue I had with the Iron Rig is that it ends pretty unceremoniously and the oil spills themselves are pretty annoying at times. Overall, Dredge is a great game, and I am very surprised by how enthralling it was. Perhaps that is on par with the themes of it. I'd certainly recommend that game to anyone, it is worth the cost.
I personally highly recommend this game. The lore is really good and it has so many different things to do. The DLCS definitely are worth buying for this game. The iron rig is really cool and helps you understand more about the dredge world. The music is awesome and really adds to the whole experience. :)
