Hand of Fate: Hordes

once of the most interesting Bullet Heavveans in a while, combines the genre with hand of fate well.

Having played both previous Hand of Fates, and roguelike games akin to Achilles: Survivor and Army of Ruin, I really enjoy the blending of these two gametypes. Achilles and Army of Ruin always lacked a sense of RPG that Hand oF Fate brings in spades(insert card joke snicker here), it makes the level engagements much more varied and rewarding. I've only just played a little of this game so far, but you can bet your bottom dollar that I'll be sinking many more hours to come. A must play for fans of the genre.

Good progress so far and already fairly fun and playable at the start of Early Access. The gameplay is not an exact rehash of HoF 1 or 2, but instead a somewhat more chill Vampire Survivors style bullet heaven vibe that weaves in a variety of the classic Hand of Fate adventure cards to keep things fresh between runs plus some light metaprogression. As a fan of the first two games I am glad to see the classic Hand of Fate atmosphere and characters (especially my absolute fave, Bitterly Sarcastic Card Dealer) are back in an all new format.

How someone can play 0.3 hours of this and leave a bad review is beyond me, just peak moron behaviour there tbh. I've currently played almost two hours s0 far (on both Steam Deck and PC), and as a big fan of bullet heavens, I can say that I'm enjoying it a lot. For £8.00 there's a lot to this game, and due to the developer's past record I have faith that they'll work on it a lot and finally get to version 1.0 where I expect a lot more stuff we haven't already seen. If you like bullet heavens, deck builders and Diablo, you may as well at least give this ago. Nicely polished with some lovely graphics on max settings too.

作为《命运之手》系列的老玩家以及幸存者类游戏的爱好者，我理所当然地尝试了本作。然而目前的游玩反馈是：期望越高，失望越大。 游戏在底层设计上存在几项严重影响体验的问题： 数值逻辑失衡：敌我交互的代价与收益不对等。例如被基础小怪击中会扣除12点生命值，但营地1点食物补给仅能回复5点，缺乏合理的续航循环。 机制判定不合理：道路狭窄而敌人的攻击判定范围过大（手长），导致玩家依靠常规走位根本无法有效规避伤害。 构筑缺乏联动（核心痛点）：这也是最令人失望的一点。武器与技能之间几乎没有能产生“化学反应”的组合。在当前的机制下，获取额外的武器反而会污染升级池，阻碍玩家选到更优的选项，呈现出“拿了武器反而拖后腿”的负面反馈。 实际上，《命运之手》1代与2代也存在类似的设计短板，但受限于前作的玩法类型，尚在可接受范围内。然而，幸存者类游戏的核心驱动力本就是“构筑的正反馈与爽快感”，本作在这一点上的缺失是致命的。 当前的综合体验让人感觉制作组并未深入研究过同类优秀的竞品，仅凭主观臆断进行开发。游戏完全忽视了玩家构筑成型后的成就感，转而采用简单粗暴的数值门槛来强行逼迫玩家“肝”进度。

Just felt like posting because I love these devs for the 1st 2 games and also wanted to address that a vast majority of the negative complaints are just invalid. You absolutely can feel incredibly powerful in this game and I feel like you can have a lot of direction with were your build goes. There is always a lot to do on the map but the objective is not to min-max every encounter but to try to complete the ones you want. The goblin is probably the best character and its fun to use the decoy. Overall i like have an active ability with each class, I do think this helps set it apart from the other games in this genre that mostly just have abilities with no input from the player. There is probably ~10-15 hours worth of gameplay until you get to the last map, more if you feel like unlocking everything. my biggest issue is aiming actually, i wish it was more precise to where my mouse is. Overall solid 8/10 for the genre

I played through both Hand of Fate (great game) and Hand of Fate 2 (less great) I think this is a great game. The charactre options are fun and interesting. The game play is generally your "survivor" type, but with some fun twists.

连续开了俩宝箱怪，连续俩大失败，这味太对了
