Savage Lands

It seems all previous update posts relating to the developer dispute and subsequent abandonment of the game have been removed from this page. This is not under active development, even if elements of it do work, and has been abandoned for 4 years now.

i wish there was a fast button to report abandonware like this so noone else buys it.

Abandonware - just another reason why I'll never support a game in early acess ever again.

This is abandonware. It's unfinished and not worth picking up.

Abandonware

This game probably shouldn't have left alpha. It's a nice little survival crafter, but as soon as you get off the first island, there's not much direction and next to no balance or direction. Even if you manage to upgrade from tin to copper to steel, the combat system is so flawed that you're going to end up dying to bad hitboxes and damage sponge enemies for no reason. Skip this one.

Savange Lands is Skyrim in survival mode; it is underrated honestly doesn't deserve a mixed review rating.

I picked up Savage Lands on sale and found myself with genuinely mixed feelings — the open-world exploration has a certain charm, wandering between islands and slowly gearing up without anyone holding your hand, but the clunky combat, dated graphics, and painful inventory management drag the experience down constantly. The game has been in Early Access for nearly a decade, passed between developers like a hot potato, and while Last Bastion Studios deserves credit for still patching it, the core issues — stiff enemy animations, frustrating resource grinding, and a UI that feels like it was never finished — remain largely unchanged. There are flashes of something interesting here, like the boss encounters dropping unique loot and the surprisingly seamless co-op, but these bright spots are buried under layers of janky design that newer survival games solved years ago. At full price it's hard to justify, but if you grab it for a couple dollars in a bundle and bring a friend to laugh at the absurdity with you, you might squeeze a few entertaining hours out of it.

After grinding for gear for hour, my first death arrives and my corpse disappear form the face of the earth and never to be seen again. It happened two time in a row. I enjoy this game, but because of this stupid bug I will delete it, unfortunately.
