Gatewalkers

I was a bit skeptical at first because what's a iso rpg looter without random loot, but the game is quite fun and the random loot still exists, it's just randomish component drops instead. No skill tree, instead it's all based on gear choices. I wish the movement was more fluid (it feels like you are running in waste deep molasses the whole time and it only gets worse if you're overweight) and the combat a little more fluid (really hampered by the slow movement), but all in all it's good. I play exclusively with others, and the network play has had no issues so far at all.

It's not an instant classic but has been fun so far, plenty of weapon and skill options.

I see a lot of people are on the fence, so I took one for the team and tested this. Based on the reviews it seems it was unpolished at release and based on player statistics not many have played it after. This game is quite enjoyable so far! The controls may not be for everyone, but I enjoy the fact that you have to aim your skills and make a build that supports your choices. This also makes it feel clunky to some, but I enjoy it. The game lets you progress fairly quick in the beginning Tiers, then I predict it will slow down by alot like in Albion. This is perfect if you enjoy looting everything. But you also need to deal with repairs and preparation in general, if gathering and preparing is not you then this may not be it. I enjoy looting everything that is not bolted down and planning my gateway expedition. You have to decide what to unlock and craft. So you may want to find your inner theorycrafter. It seems better to create more characters and focus on one thing at a time rather than spreading too thin until you have something that works. The game runs quick day/night intervals, this gives you time to craft and rest or a challenge should you ignore the night. This can be really fun in a team where you divide tasks and power through, but can be annoying if you did not plan ahead as a solo. You have to be prepared, there are even hazards that you have to deal with. This can be fun, but some may find the many small challenges annoying to solve. I kinda enjoy solving the small tasks and micro planning that makes up a successfull portal run. Also set up for the night in a place with things to do or carry light is a must. And the hunger/thirst bar is quick to deplete since the days fly by fast, so farm enough food and water when you can so you're prepared for when its not abundant. That way it does not feel bothersome, but more of a preperation step. Again, you have to like looting :) Overall a neat concept. It's a Coop Albion online meets Stargate where time flies fast. Wish the Devs would promote their game more, and maybe add more quality of life for those not enjoying the planning ahead and prepping. Bet a lot more would play the game with less starvation/thirst and easier farming options, but so far I've been having lots of fun. It may not be for everyone due to the preperation gameplay. Also the required looting is like powerwash simulator, some enjoy it others dont. I find it relaxing

Early review... I honestly like the game. The added offline mode with a pause is great as well. Additionally the fact that Off/On line characters are completely separate is a plus for me as well. Though I could see some wishing to take the same character back and forth from mode to mode. One additional complaint a read a lot was the lack of click to move option. I know the comparison always falls to Diablo or PoE, but this really isn't the same type of game in my opinion and the WASD movement isn't all the complicated to get used to. I had an easier time I guess, because I've played games with similar controls. But from completing a few hours in both off and online I really have been enjoying myself. If you can spare the cash when on sale I'd say give it a go and forget other games you think it is like and just take it for a real spin and you'll likely find a unique though not crazy deep way to reach ever higher goals.

Good!

gatewalkers je velice zajímavá hra, neřekl bych podobná na diablo ani jako diablo. Musím uznat že oproti jiným hrám je zde těžší combat protože nemáte kopu skillu jako třeba v diablo atd, ale pár skillu a dost podstatně musíte používat dodge. Boss fight je zábavný a akčnía hra má tu krásu že musíte i farmit materiál na gear. Určitě mohu doporučit tento herní počin v coop je to opravdu zábava.

Probably a good game if you buy it for 5€ PS : ♥♥♥♥ game forget it

I find Gatewalkers to be a great game for anyone who likes the genre. The game is quite challenging, not only does it challenge your character to figure things out at start as you are weak, but also you need a while to get used to the controls. Otherwise, the gameplay is fluid, no crashes. Any big bugs to report, story is as entertaining as it can be. The skills are thoughtfully designed to complement the different styles that you can go for, the skill tree Is abundant and nicely designed, the crafting is straight forward and easy to figure out, with plenty of resources to be gathered. The day/night/freeze/hunger/thirst mechanics is another thing that makes you think about your character. All in all, I would give the game a 9/10 for anyone who likes exploring unknown areas with challenging opponents. Can’t wait to see what comes further in the game.
