NeverEnd

⠀

Never playing this again more like it.

NeverEnd ma kilka ciekawych pomysłów na roguelike dungeon crawlera, ale niestety wykonanie nie daje większych powodów, żeby zostać przy nim na dłużej. Losowe lochy, rozwijanie wyposażenia i różne rodzaje broni brzmią dobrze, jednak w praktyce szybko wychodzą problemy. Walka jest toporna, lokacje zaczynają się powtarzać, a poziom trudności momentami bardziej irytuje, niż daje satysfakcję. Jest tutaj jakiś potencjał, ale zdecydowanie zabrakło dopracowania. Można znaleźć znacznie lepsze roguelike'i. Ja nie widzę większego powodu, żeby do NeverEnd wracać. Nie polecam.

[h1] Shovelware from your nightmares. [/h1]

Возможно, у игры есть потенциал xD

ДАЙ СОБАКЕ КОСТЬ И ПОПРОБУЙ ЕЕ ОТНИМИ, ТАК ЖЕ И ВЛАСТЬ НИКТО НЕ ОТДАСТ. А ТЕПЕРЬ ПОСМОТРИ НА ПУТИНА И ПОЙМИ...ОН СДЕЛАЕТ ВСЁ, ЛИШЬ БЫ СВОЮ КОСТЬ НЕ ОТДАВАТЬ.

Мусор в стадии вечной альфы.

NeverEnd is an extremely badly made shovelware low poly/voxel/minecraft looking "dungeon crawler" with incredibly shallow RPG elements that looks and feels a lot like a lazy cash grab dumped on Steam to try make gaming worse for people in exchange for a few bucks. I definitely feel gaming got worse the moment this was launched. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. The game features lazy low-polygon voxel "Minecraft"-like "art", making this look like a barely functional 3D game from the 1990s. A lot of amateur developers see Minecraft's success and assume it's because it looks bad, not because it had unique and appealing game mechanics, and they try to emulate the success without understanding it. It also happens to be easy, and doesn't need any proper talent in terms of game development/graphic artists etc. That's why reviewers are faced with so many of these terrible games with confrontingly bad graphics. Developers must learn that Minecraft succeeded despite the bad graphics, not because of them. The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers, or gamers using AZERTY or other international keyboard layouts. PC gamers will be insulted by the demand from the developer that a console peasant children's toy controller should be used, despite this being on PC. Developers should try to be aware which platform they're developing for, and must never, under any circumstances dictate to gamers how their games are to be experienced. The game features no proper level design or game/story flow/plot, as they opted to try to use samey repetitive procgen algorithms as a substitute for adding such content to the game, to avoid doing the important job of level/map design. As a result, the game doesn't actually have any content worth mentioning, just endless, boring, repetitive, soulless algorithmically generated sameyness. Developers must learn that procedural generation is not an acceptable substitute for content. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. You don't have to take my word about how bad the game is, we can measure the interest in a game by how much people bothered to play it. NeverEnd has achievements, and they show us a very clear picture that the game absolutely failed to capture any interest from gamers. The most commonly and easily attained achievement is for killing anything or dying, trivial to achieve, but less than 4 percent of players bothered to get that far before uninstalling the game. That's a tiny, tiny proportion of gamers who even bothered with this. Ouch. Reviewing SteamDB to check how popular this game was with players reveals a surprise... there's a very healthy spike in player counts for the game. But this isn't consistent with the achievement stats, that show less than 4 percent of players bothered playing the game for any reasonable amount of time. How is it possible for this game to have so many concurrent players who didn't bother to played the game? Trading cards. People will use card idling software to collect the cards and sell them, but this won't trigger any achievements in-game. That tells us people only really bought this game for trading cards, and that's a damning indictment of the woeful quality. A closer look at the numbers shows the game just has a couple of players every week running up the game and idling it for cards, then deleting it. We must ask how it benefits gamers for there to be so many games like this, with no merit as a serious game, that only generate sales from people idling and selling the trading cards.

They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear at almost exactly the same time, very shortly after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams. The "Positive" review score on this game should be disregarded due to this blatant, unethical review manipulation. This is done to deceive and scam gamers into paying for a bad product. NeverEnd is relatively cheap at $2 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, and the questionable ethical nature of the developer and/or their associates (as outlined above), this is impossible to recommend.

Utter garbage. I feel like this is someones "Intro to game making" project. Don't spend money on this.
