Greywind's Legacy - A Text Based, Skill Progression, RPG

I bought this on a whim because it was so cheap, and I wanted something new/different to play, and I saw the dev being really receptive and kind in the Steam Discussions for this game, and, admittedly, felt bad that this game had no reviews and wanted to make one. I've played for ~1 hour so far, and I definitely think I'll keep coming back for more. It really is as-advertised; this is a heavily text-driven adventure, most of what you're doing is reading and selecting commands from a list. It seems to have a surprising amount of depth as far as combat goes - different weapons, lots of different skills and abilities as you level up, skill evolutions, etc.. If you've ever used one of those AI-run Dungeons & Dragons-style chats/games, it feels similar to that, but less janky (since it's not an actual AI, so there's no memory issues). [strike]My only minor complaints so far are: 1. I do wish the use of AI to generate in-game text and dialogue wasn't so obvious. Everything I've come across so far in a book, from an NPC, or even ability descriptions reads like an AI output. Maybe I'm wrong, but I was really hoping based on the bottom of the Store page for this game, in the section about AI, the dev only used it a *little*, but it feels more like a lot. Hopefully it improves over time, especially if the game sells well.[/strike] [b]Edit:[/b] The dev has already replaced quite a bit, and has stated it will all be replaced by his own writing over time. [strike]2. If you own multiple of an item, say, 6x Leather Boots, but one is equipped, the shops won't let you sell any of them, acting as if they're all equipped. Otherwise, selling multiples of an item works fine so long as none of them are equipped.[/strike] [b]Edit: [/b]This is fixed now. Honestly there's a good base of a game here, the general loop is fun, there seems to be quite a bit of freedom in how you choose to play, and making your way around the world is easy once you get into the flow of it (kudos to dev for making Space>Enter the default for backing out of menus even if its not listed as an option, makes stuff so much faster). I typically give games a "out of 10" rating but it feels too early in development (and in my playtime) to do that, so maybe I'll add one later. I do recommend this though! It's very cheap, too. :D

I am just eating this game up. Total Character Freedom, a totally open world. For the modest price I can't tell you how good the value is....this is the RPG equivalent of Warsim. Your skills level as you use them and there are branching paths for your class. It is a little rough but for just coming out in EA this is great!

When I saw this game on the shop page, my first thought was "Hey, this looks like a game which I played (and really enjoyed a lot) 40 years ago! I have searched for that old game for so long, without success ... I want to play this again!" [Yes, I am older than 20 years] It is not exactly as the game which I remember, but close enough, so I bought it. Finally a game which has no music at the starting screen, does not overheat the laptop, has no time pressure at all, can even be played without headset because it has no sound at all, I LOVE IT :D The developer (single person) answers to all question, bug reports, suggestions and tries to resolve anything very quickly. So give him all your ideas, the game will grow and get even better with it. Players who want to e.g. hit F5 for quicksave will need to get used to a different behaviour. You have to use numbers, space key and the enter key to get where you want. Movement is WASD, you don't need the mouse to look around. Maybe too minimalistic for some players, very relaxing for me. I am glad that I found this pearl. Definitely recommended for all those who are overwhelmed by the most AAA games or for those who want to give their laptops a chance to survive longer. ;) Recommended for those who want to calm down after an exhausting day. Recommended for mothers and fathers who are very often interrupted because their children need assistance: no pause key needed at all in this game. No drums or sound which awakens the babies.

Very easy to get in to. an hour passed like it was nothing. will definitely be playing more of this

I am having a really good time with this game so far. It satisfies my need for skill grinding with the added fun of discovering class paths and new skill combinations with the evolution/merging system. It's fun finding all the little interesting lore and secrets. It's a great RPG so far and I can't wait to see where it goes. Loads of hours of play already even for early access and definitely lots of replayability with class system! If you like reading, skill-based progression and grinding then this is definitely one to check out, plus the dev is great at communicating and listening to feedback!

Доволі спецефічне керування, присутні деякі баги, але грати дуже цікаво. Добре було би ще мати її на телефоні.
