Forsaken Realms: Vahrin's Call

Actually a positive here. TLDR; "Pretty much Fable 2" (no, not the sloppy "Fable" that's currently under development). The Devs definitely captured the original Fable vibes (graphic style, puzzles, finding... and janky animations at a time). Pretty chill and fun RPG made in the old fashion, with a bit of modern solutions. Combat is fine, magic is fine, crafting etc. all is good for me. Ofc. there are things tha are bad as well: - the interface is sometimes a pain, made me wonder many times "BUT WHY?", also it's to minimallistic, - got bugged few times, with not being able to draw any weapon (had to restart checkpoint), - the performance is bad, like really bad-bad, and that has to be fixed (most of it goes on GPU, so IMO the CPU reqs are overestimated), - we got all the fancy loot colors configuration but no font configuration (the letters font is really hard to read) Even tho i wanted to slam a negative here, I still think it's a good title, but the devs have to fix it a bit and optimize it a lil.

i set a time for this game cus of the negative reviews Ill keep this short THEY LYIN GAME GUD

[h2]The game is fun, but maybe wait for a discount.[/h2] I must also point out that the developer team is rather small, so maybe the game will become more polished and issues will be addressed, but it is pretty fine as it is. Let's list pros and cons to allow the reader to make a decision, first the [b]cons[/b]: [list] [*] Enemies are rather dumb, they will not notice kills, they will not hide or move, they will not even attempt to find you until you stumble upon them. In the late game there will be enemies that pose some more challenge, so it looks like a design choice maybe? I've played on medium difficulty though. [*] In the end game difficulty spikes, locations grow very large and convoluted, enemy count also rises a lot. You may become overwhelmed, especially since enemies will re-spawn on re-load, and in some locations even if you run too far away. [*] In some places my video card sounded really loud, I assume the game may not be very well optimised, but it looked like it should run fine for the most part. [*] Picking up items requires targeting a rather small area, you may pick without doing that by holding the interaction button, but I kept forgetting about it and it requires some waiting, so not ideal. [*]Item economy is a bit weird, you need to dismantle some items [b]once[/b] to discover the parts, but then it makes no sense to break down the rest of items as you would get more parts by selling the item and buying the materials from a merchant that will stock everything you have discovered. [/list] And the [b]pros[/b]: [list] [*]The game is pretty, at least for the most part, I didn't like the saturation overdrive in the beginning, but either I got used to it, or it got balanced somewhere mid game. [*]Progression system feels nice and satisfactory, albeit it feels like you reach max level too fast and then it immediately gets hard to balance skill points. [*]There are some puzzles that felt nice, even if those were not rocket science. [*]A setting to enable quest markers on the map is a great thing, I've played most of the game with those disabled and only enabled those in the epilogue to keep track of some quests where I felt like I already have been everywhere (of course I've missed a door) [*]You don't need to bother with inventory management, only with what you wear. [*]Searching for genomey is fun, if frustrating a bit sometimes. [/list] I've heard people comparing it to Fable, but it reminded me more of Elden Ring just with difficulty toned way down and colours toned way up. The story is not exactly very interesting, but it's fine, and the best part is exploring the place and enjoying the scenery, in my opinion. You can definitely finish the game way faster than me if you're not planning to hunt down every item and finish every quest (this I haven't completed yet), I would estimate main story to be 4–8 hours. Right now less than 5% of players have achievement for completing the main quest, by the way, I hope this will change in the future.

ich finds super, viel zu sammeln, viel zu entdecken, alles schön gemütlich und entspannt. Es läuft auch gut und ohne Probleme, sehr viel anpassbar, für mich ein wunderschönes Game.

The game is bland. There's not much to gravitate to. Rather play the Gothic Remake

I like this game. I'm taking my time with and I'm enjoying the scenery. Combat is pretty good for an indie studio. Honestly, I'm excited to see what this studio could do with more resources and a supportive fan base. My major critique is the soundtrack, its not very in depth and repetitive. At first it invokes atmosphere, but quickly gets redundant.

A great game with a rocky launch.
