Forsaken Realms: Vahrin's Call

Good indie game. A bit like a darksoulsy Fable. The game is not very hard and does not punish you too much. It is more of an action game with RPG elements. I finished it in bout 20 hours while doing some side content. I might come back to it later once it's more polished to get all the achievements or if they ever release new content. Just don't expect a game like Skyrim or The Witcher 3. A solid 7/10

At this price its a no unfortunately. I finished the game after about 12~13 hrs. It was kinda fun, but i couldnt be bothered to sweat gnomes and skillbooks. I was a little sad there was just one settlement. Builds and Combat are fun. For 10-15€ i´d recommend the game!

[b][i] [h2]...JANKY FUN ACTION RPG...[/h2] [/i][/b] Forsaken Realms Vahrin's Call is a call back to the heydays for old school Action RPG's. It has it charm and kinda meh moments. As many games do. It doesn't outstay it welcome and send you into a tedious 40 to 100 hour adventure. Overall story is anything will blow mind or make you go wow I wasn't expecting that. Pretty straight forward but enjoyable story. Some interesting side quests in this game, some will make you go huh I don't get it but once it click ya like oh that makes sense. Graphics are fine, has nice environments and scenerys in the distance. Lots of different zones not copy and paste like some game. Some may claim not 2026 standard, but the games artistic vision is fine and done a good job on it. Music when it is playing is great, has some nice catchy toons and nice combat music, but once you have played for awhile you have pretty much heard all the tracks and sometimes when exploring no music at all so just feels kinda quiet and less engaging at times. Combat is pretty simple begin out with (And yes has some jank to it, but if you love the jank the jank will love you), but once you get some levels into weapon ya using ya unlock some passives and techniques let you change up how ya attack, Like getting deep into Bow allow you to use different type of arrows, like bleed one, poison and so on. Magic is nice to use as well, from ice, to fire and earth. As well Alteration which more healing spells. Give you fair few options to change up your playstyle. It is a classless combat system, so can be anything you want to be, but no pure mage type since have no staves, wands. Overall I have enjoyed the game, it a nice Action RPG game, with lots to explore and see. Interesting classless job system as well nice areas to explore, a fun 25 ++ hour game. And I'll give the game a [b]7.5 out of 10[/b]. For me was worth the price, but for some I know you'll wait for a sale.

Decided to give it a try since it was shown on asmon's game expo. Visually it looks absolutely horrendous and nothing like the trailers, (maybe this is a issue on my end.) gameplay didn't really hold me although i kinda dipped out early because i wanted to make sure i got my refund in, reason being is i was seeing early redflags, to anyone checking this out due to seeing it on the asmon expo be warned that it seems like the type of game you'd expect sweet baby inc to have hand in

What makes me rage quit this game is that the fighting animations are not responsive. Often I find myself locked into swinging a sword when I'm furiously tapping block or dodge, but the game is written such that I cannot react to the boss fast enough. Sometimes - like in my latest fight - the game won't respond AT ALL to my keyboard input. Specifically, several times during my latest boss fight, I gain some distance from the boss so that I can finally apply a bleed with a barbed arrow, but the game simply doesn't respond to my keyboard input (Ctrl key by default). Then the boss is able to quickly close the distance and bash on me lol. I can take that only so many times before I rage quit.

You should disable Anti-Aliasing for better graphics. Overall, its alright. I think it should be fleshed out more. Maps and towns feel pretty boring and bland. NPC's are mainly stationary and robot-like. I have not encountered any crashes or glitches yet. Ill wait until the game progresses further with updates. Also, go to settings and enable locations for quest. It really helps out!

The performance is horrible, I got 30 fps on the epic preset and 55 to 120 fps on the low preset without DLSS. DLSS would probably help but the game uses the blurriest model there is so it's unusable (not able to swap the model using the NVIDIA app). Even some UE5 games have better performance while having significantly better visuals

I can not get the CPU to stop running above 80%. # hour in game and 1.5 has been in options and settings. I have a 5070, 32gb and a 9600x. All games run great but this one.

If cozy games met rpg, this is what you'd get. This game feels and looks like something you'd hand to a 12 year old to play.
