Expeditions: Viking

This is a very good RPG with a solid turn-based combat system and a lot of historically credible exploration. Everything on the creative side is superlative. The setting, plot, quests, characters, dialogue, everything is written brilliantly, and everything is also coherent and believable both logically and atmospherically. The graphics of the locations are crafted in the same vein, they are gorgeous and quite perfect to the last minute detail, and help in creating impeccable immersion. Even the loading screens are brilliant and heighten the experience. There is a lot of content, and a lot of replay value due to a branching story and smaller mutually exclusive decisions. The gameplay side is not as perfect, but it is still good. There are many minor annoyances (like traps which are very dangerous, but basically invisible on screen even after they are "found", and to top it off disarming them is not possible until completing the entire trap skill tree). Despite this being an old game, I still came across some bugs (again mainly inconveniences, nothing game-breaking, but the most obvious ones should definitely have been found and fixed). The game also does not do a great job at giving the player all the needed information. Basically one either needs to first play one or several training takes to figure out what actually should be done (there is a time limit so just wandering around will not work, and experimenting with character builds is also challenging as skill points can't be redistributed), or resort to online tips (perhaps advisable due to the length of the game). All in all, the strong writing was enough to carry the game over the occasional rough waters. Most of the time I enjoyed the game a lot; if you like RPGs, turn-based combat, and/or vikings, I can definitely recommend this.

Man has axe. Man becomes viking. Man happy.

很好的英语阅读材料，故事很精彩，如果喜欢维京文化不容错过。 事实上可能是我目前为止玩过的最好的维京模拟游戏（模拟？） 之前个人没玩下来神界原罪2，但这款游戏我却能沉下心慢慢看剧情。 初见两小时玩下来体验很不错，战斗系统易于上手但也有深度，游戏内除了人物成长还有氏族规划的要素，而除开这些之外，这还是个故事驱动的RPG游戏！ 真的很不错！ 唯一的缺点是没有中文，不过阅读难度感觉高中词汇就能啃了，偶尔有生僻词查一查也不碍事儿

Zaskakująco dobra strategiczna gra RPG, w której przyjdzie nam kierować drużyną wikingów, walczących za dalekim morzem z nową religią, obcymi oraz problemami swojego rodu. Całkiem zgrabnie osadzona w historycznych realiach fabuła wciąga, bohaterowie są interesujący i mają swoje własne zdanie na temat poczynań głównego bohatera. Na minus trochę toporna grafika (choć gra ma już swoje lata) oraz bardzo częste crashe. Mimo tego warto dać grze szansę.

I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happiness of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay. After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like. Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends. Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together. Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that. Thank you.

Voy a darle voto positivo ya que la comunidad ha creado una traducción para poder jugarlo en español, un fallo por los creadores, aunque lo han arreglado con el expedition rome. Bueno, al lio. En su día jugué el expedition conquistador y quedé maravillado, acaba de pasarme lo mismo. Juegazo de rol con multitud de opciones, de corte realista, donde tienes que proteger a tu clan de amenazas externas a base de ganar poder con las incursiones a inglaterra. Estas incursiones no tienen porque ser todo en plan violento, yo por ejemplo acabé haciendo muy buenas relaciones con los Pictos, llegando a hermanar a su pueblo con el vikingo y obteniendo su apoyo incondicional. Para los amante de los juegos de rol, no lo dudeis, el juego solo tenía un punto malo, la falta de español, y gracias a la comunidad eso ya es historia. A rolear con vuestro clan vikingo y disfrutad cada hora de juego que es una delicia.
