Master Bladesmith

Sure love being promised more then being told the early access is in fact the final product

Dev abandoned the game. It's a cool concept and could have been so much more.

abandonware dont buy

Pretty fun, rough around the edges, but fun. The issue being that the potential is wasted by the fact that the dev has abandoned any updates.

Master Bladesmith is such an unique game for what is offers. Smithing swords, fletching bows, using said swords and bows in a gauntlet is alot of fun. Challenging too. It can get very grindy and its hardly a fun combo if you are standing up straight in VR waiting for the mines to generate gems for even more smithing. I can safely say I enjoyed it and it's a shame that it's still too buggy to truly shine, but that will sadly not get fixed. This is why I leave a negative review. If you think you can handle the bugginess the game offers, then it's worth picking up on a sale. 70% off or more maybe. The most interesting part about the game (as you can read from other negative reviews) is about the dev essentially giving up halfway on the game's development. While the game remained in early access, the dev decided to instead work on another game instead of fully developing this one, as stated in the latest steam post by them. This next game, with no doubt in my mind, will also be released in early access, and can easily be abandoned the same way this game was. I don't wish to pre-emptively leave a negative review on a game that doesn't exist yet, this is simply a cautionary warning for people who wish to see more of this dev's work.

Not trusting the devs to finish "the next game" if they're so prone to abandon them

It may be abandoned, but there is still dozens of hours of progression and hundreds of hours of ♥♥♥♥ to do
