Fatekeeper

Ich habe Fatekeeper im Early Access gespielt und bin wirklich positiv überrascht. Die Grafik ist wunderschön, die Soundeffekte sind stark und sorgen für eine tolle Atmosphäre. Für eine Early-Access-Version bietet das Spiel bereits jede Menge Inhalt. Die Kämpfe sind anspruchsvoll – oft reichen schon zwei Treffer und man ist tot. Wer Spiele wie Skyrim, Morrowind oder andere klassische Hardcore-RPGs liebt, wird sich hier schnell zuhause fühlen. Jede Auseinandersetzung verlangt Konzentration und gutes Timing. Der einzige Kritikpunkt ist aktuell die noch begrenzte Auswahl an Waffen und Rüstungen. Es gibt zwar versteckte Ausrüstung zu entdecken, aber insgesamt wünscht man sich hier einfach mehr Vielfalt. Das ist für eine Early-Access-Version jedoch nachvollziehbar. Insgesamt hatte ich richtig viel Spaß mit Fatekeeper und freue mich schon auf die Vollversion. Wer ein herausforderndes Dark-Fantasy-Action-RPG mit starker Atmosphäre sucht, sollte dieses Spiel definitiv im Auge behalten. Empfehlung: 👍 Ja

One of the greatest Full Price = Quality ratio at a game ever seen! Devs also take popular feedback directly into the game very fast.

Just AMAZING!!! Can't wait for full release!!!

While I have refunded the game, I will follow it, if it ever releases and reaches its potential, it may become excellent. Graphics are very strong. Control is decent. However, probably because of the early access nature, I never even got into the real game. Just walking, looking around, and a moment of fighting tutorial enemies. Not interested to invest time into something I may not even have fun with. First I need some gameplay, then story expo and scenery... Recommeneded anyone to follow the game for its potential.

Sehr gutes und flüssiges Gameplay

A cool game, especially for a small and inexperienced studio, for that price I more than recommend

Early access review: At this point, the game demonstrates solid mechanics in fighting and incredible graphics using the new, what is probably nanite technology. The fighting is simple but with good mechanics. At times the AI could use work to keep the player engaged. *edit* I look forward to the finished game.

Absolute „Dark Messiah“ Gaming. Cannot wait for next updates

First of all, I would like to say that it is amazing to see a developer working on a spiritual successor to Dark Messiah Of Might and Magic. It's refreshing to see the concept return in a significant way after all this time. As a rough start to the project, it's pretty good considering it is in VERY early access. As we are all aware many things are subject to change as the development process continues, but the foundation is solid. In an attempt to assist in the process I would like to throw my hat into the ring and suggest some things that the dev's could implement into the game (if they're not already in development, you know cause its an early access game and all). The few things I can think of are related to the alchemy system, the combat system, and inventory management. *The Alchemy System* The alchemy system is pretty good, however there are some QOL changes that would help it quite a bit. Firstly, when you make a potion, using reagents gathered from the world as you explore, the potion keeps track of all the ingredients used to create it and what the ingredients do. So it leads to something like this: Potion Heal 5 Heal 5 Heal 5 It's a bit clunky and could lead to an Inventory Management problem due to most potions you create being for healing health/mana. I believe this could be remedied by condensing all information of a similar type into one subheading, kind of like this: Potion Heal 15 This would also make it easier to auto organize identical potions into one stack because you would only be looking for one number instead of three. *The Combat System* This is where the game excels. Having so many options available to you is an amazing experience that frankly can't be topped. In the version I am playing, many of the higher level options are unavailable due to the lack of levels that a player can acquire during the playtest the options are good... as long as you select to play with spells. Its the nature of the beast that melee combat is going to take a backseat to the spell options that you have at your disposal. This isn't to say that melee combat is easy, I would argue that its very much not (if you play a spell caster I never actually went down the melee combat path of the skill tree, however my suggestion doesn't rely on being an exclusively melee character). At it's base it's a three button system: hit, block, and dodge. A classic system, however while there is a perfect dodge mechanic, there is no perfect block/parry mechanic. This leads to blocking being dull and only being useful when your outnumbered/surrounded... until you discover that the kick is a superior defensive option in comparison (I know, i lied by omission but its true). The kick button is the best defensive button due to a kicking an enemy staggering or even knocked them over! (except for mini-bosses, which I have gripes with because I am bad and choose a poor build to defeat them) This both gives you breathing room a block button is supposed to and puts you in an advantageous position. This is why I believe the block button should be replaced with a "parry" button. Kicking, in my opinion, should be the main defense option so that players can get used to using it instead of relying on a block button that more often than not leads to becoming surrounded because you are too passive. How this parry mechanic would work, I'm not sure. It could be a stun/high damage counter for reading an opponent correctly, or it could be similar to a perfect dodge completely avoiding damage. *Inventory management* This ones short in comparison to the other two. While on mission, allow the player to send Items, excluding quest items, to a storage chest back at the main hub (or camp if there's not going to be a main hub). In the Playtest, I found a lot of weapons that I just wasn't going to use after finding a new/better one. Just being able to clear the space would allow for easier access to wanted items like potions without a lot of visual clutter. The game is just starting its development process and with this solid framework, Paraglacial could be working on a future game of the year contender. Good luck, Paraglacial. I'll be keeping an eye on your progress and wish you all success in what you hope to accomplish!
