Entropy

enjoyed it quite a bit, looking forward to more

The Vibes are immaculate, only a few hours of content but every second is enjoyable!

God, this game is amazing. I know patience is a virtue, but I am salivating at the idea of being able to play more of it.

Great so far, but $12 for about 10 hours with only Act 1 is wayyyy too much.

I feel the same way about Entropy as I do about Dread Delusion, which is that the gameplay is straight forward to an almost detrimental degree, but also at the same time its kind of welcome in that it maintains a classic video game sort of vibe, plus it adds enough variety to turn based combat that keeps it from being tedious. The heart of this game (as was the case with Dread Delusion) however is the story, world building, and artistic design of the game, which rock. One thing that I hope changes as the game continues development is interactions with party members when resting. Like it would be exciting to interact with party members more and learn more about them if there was a bit more depth to them (especially the characters that you are guaranteed to encounter). Otherwise, if there isn't a new interaction to be had with a party member, it sort of feels pointless.

*Editing as I have now reached the end of early access* Good so far, I enjoy the targeting system they have, allowing you to maim enemies and for you to be maimed. It makes fights more tactical from the get go, so the early levels aren't so boring. The world is intriguing so far, with the writing really doing a great job of making the world feel grimy, in a lived in sort of way. I can't wait to see more and more of the weird world they have been cooking up. The only issue I have is that the camera is a little wonky when it suddenly shifts to being on a rail. I see what the intention is, and I like it, but it mostly just makes getting around a bother as it messes with the movement inputs. Especially since you can go from freelook to having a forced camera angle without any warning. Its just a bit jarring, but ultimately, not the biggest issue to me. I am only really giving it so much time as it is hard to describe. Overall, I have enjoyed what they have made and want more.
