Bladesong

Interesting story. Well though out mechanics and a wide variety of parts. I really like the themed part sets.

In my opinion this game is THE weaponsmithing game. So many others either abstract too much or not nearly enough. Bladesong lets you be expedient while giving you tactile feedback and letting you get granular in blade shape, handle materials, and cross-guard/basket guard construction. The addition of the creative mode is the cherry on top. Ever wanted to custom-make a magic weapon in D&D? Odds are you can do it in creative mode. Trying to envision the specifics of a book character's weapon? Odds are you can follow a particular description of moderate detail and make a good approximation. The setting and story in the background of the game is also so genuinely fascinating and I won't comment on it beyond that because discovering more about the world and the transition into understanding the setting was a stand-out moment for me that took this from a vaguely-fantasy vaguely-medieval crafting game to a genuinely entrancing (Dark?) fantasy work that made me feel like I was in it myself. My only complaint as of the current Early Access version (Chapter 2) is that the gameplay cycle DOES get a bit repetitive over long play sessions but if, like me, you're a Forged in Fire fanatic or overall weaponsmithing nut then this is quickly solved by a short break and a later return.

玩完了前面两章，个人认为还是很好玩的，首先在剧情上很丰富，我很喜欢这个风格，且世界观和人物塑造很有意思；其次游戏难度还是比较低的，适合想铸剑玩的新手；再者画风独特讨喜，总的来说很值得期待，但也有一些弊端：总的来说这是一个铸剑为卖点的游戏，但是很明显作者在这方面不够用功，导致后面更像是接铸剑任务赚钱推动剧情，重点是在每日后的事件的小说式游戏了，希望在保留你的剧情特色的时候加强铸剑环节，并且铸剑的趣味性不够，只是捏剑很容易玩腻，希望作者丰富一下环节，增加真实性，再接着就是我觉得最神秘的点：你的复刻形状的那个框会不会太容易辨识太方便看了，作者这个赶紧优化一下吧。以及我可能智力不够吧，你的坚韧灵巧这些属性，我觉得如果判定是要求百分比的话，你显示也用百分比好了（或者是我自己不会看？）。总之作为一个才开头的游戏还是很不错的，至少做到了吸引玩家，但是不足之处也非常多，希望作者再努把力吧，现在这个半成品是配不上你简介的野心的。（以及更新的是不是有点慢啊）

I'm enjoying this game immensely, the sword crafting is extremely satisfying, and the resource balancing is just the right amount of challenging. It's not super brutal, so you can make mistakes, but it's also not forgiving if you make too many. Definitely get this game if blacksmithing is your thing.

Wer hier einen Schmiedesimulator alá Forged in Fire, oder That Works erwartet wird wahrscheinlich enttäuscht. Trotzdem macht das Schmieden sehr viel Spaß und ist mit unter sehr anspruchsvoll durch verschiedene Ansprüche der Kunden. Es ist ein hervorragendes Textadventure Game mit einer, wie ich finde sehr spannenden Story. Freue mich auf die kommenden Updates :)

I love the Story Mode. World building and lore work exclusively via use of textboxes and artworks. And this evokes more feelings, pictures and commitment to the story than many other games. Swordbuilding engine is fun and offers countless possibilities, but also gets repetetive in story mode. Creative mode lacks some things, like when I bend pieces I would like a display of the used angle etc. Same with size variation. Here I would like percentages, too.

沉浸感很棒
