Well the game used to be good and " The immersive update " pretty much ruined the game as you can probably tell from the reviews. It somehow managed to make almost every aspect of the game worse. Devs really had something going before then and I used to recommend it a lot but last person I recommended it to told me it was horrible and that's when I learned about the update. I tried to go back to the legacy version to compare but my save wouldn't load so had to make a new character and it's immediately noticeable how drastically everything changed. As a developer I'm sure it's hard to hear this negativity surrounding something you spent so much time and effort on but hopefully you can look past that and see that you should probably contemplate what you want this game to be going forward because as of right now it's literally unplayable. The animations, combat, UI, shop, models, and even the intro and main menu are many steps below what was previously available.

What you guys been smoking? Revert the game back to the original dear god. It was an amazing, charming game with character. What's this "I want to be RuneScape generic sh!tshow? Never seen a game go downhill this bad before.

Man, this is a game with crazy potential. I picked it up closer to when it was out and thought it had quite a bit of charm. Problem is, I gave it time to cook in the oven and it seems like almost no progress was made. That is probably not entirely accurate though. There may have been some choices made to redesign the game in certain ways, and it does look like more features were added in totality. Over the course of a few years though, there doesn't seem to be any polished aspects to the game yet. It's all held together like a hastily made fan project that has way too much scope creep. All in all, I wouldn't get this game until it hits 1.0 at least, especially for the price.

I used to really enjoy playing this, but the new update renders it basically unplayable. The new graphics somehow look way worse and it lost all of its charm. Its very buggy and just not fun anymore :(

Devs have distroyed this game. The new player characters are awful. I want back the game I paid for.

Holy smokes, what a horrible update to a great game. They ruined a true masterpiece. skip it unless they revert the game back to its old state

TLDR at bottom: So I decided to give this game another chance. I used to play this game with my wife back a few years ago, we liked it. Got about 15 hours into the game before it got a bit repetitive. She pressed on, unlocked many other shops etc. I played other games. The new immersive update came out, and from the looks of it, it seemed..."okay?" But as the game was out with the new update more and more negative reviews started popping up. I can see why, sure there are some more bugs now, and it's back to being janky liked it used to be. There are a TON of systems: There are tribes of NPC's, almost every item in the game is lootable, stealable, grabbable, vendorable, sellable. You have stats that increase every aspect of gameplay. There is a story now. Also the camera angle is different. So, I decided to come back to the game and give it "the ol' college try" once again. And I gotta say, I think most of these negative reviews are a knee-jerk reaction to the changes. The changes aren't THAT bad. For a new player these changes are way better. He just needs to optimize the game a bit more. Also this is early access and things ARE subject to change. TLDR: Has the game changed? Yes, for the better? Maybe. For the worst? Definitely not. As someone that played the game before the updates at great length, and watching my wife play it side by side, I can honestly say the game is going in a good direction, you just need to give it some time. Works great for steam deck too.

Broken and unplayable, only server host could interact with anything outside of the shop area. don't know if its a permissions issue or what but it shouldn't be rocket science to play the game. used to be fun, loved it before, but this update is way too broken.

this game doesn't deserve all the negative reviews. it has a long way to go towards completion but it has an active dev that is heavily invested in the game's quality
