The Lantern of the Laughless Saint

Do you like Morrowind? If so, buy this game. If not, you are sad and I have no desire to speak with you any further. But seriously. I was a little worried about the "Early Access" thing. However these guys are doing what too few do: Actually continuing to update and improve the game. So please. Encourage them with a buy. We need to reward devs that stick to the promise made with early access titles and work hard to update and finish the game. And if this is the appetizer, I'm excited for the main course that is Holy Fool

[i]LIZARD[/i] [i]MEN[/i] I haven't found the Epstien Island dungeon yet I am level 1 and I don't care I WILL beat my head against the brick wall until I beat it. It has drugs and fantasy racism, welcome back, Dagoth Ur.

First off let me say that i do enjoy the game for what it is, It is visually a cool game with a unique world, but thats about all i can say for it. The enemy variety is lacking immensely all humanoid enemies use the same unity engine human template so a armless mushroom man or a skeleton snake will just run up to you and punch you. They feel very rushed in with no afterthought of how these enemies should work, second is that outside of the two main villages everything hates you and ONLY you, their is no fighting in between of the enemies and it just feels like your sent to the island to kill everything on it. I wish for some inter enemy fighting between groups that makes sense but it seems like everything teams up to fight you. Third is the world itsself, while I said I do enjoy the worldbuilding and level design its very shallow and every ruin seems to have just junk. There was about two places where I found actual loot worth going for, like oh great I found a pair of carhartt that gives me plus 2 to my sneak how lovely. Look asside the locations are just really nothing, they are telling a story sure I can respect that but going out of my way to the top right of the map for a unique location only to have just nothing at it, like twelve bucks and a golden McDonalds sticker basically. Fourth is random encounters, the lack thereof that is. Once you clear a area then thats it, if your trying to be morrowind at least have some sort of random encounters or respawning enemies. because it gets boring running from place to place when you clear everything in between. Lastly is just the lack of wildlife, their really isnt any neutral wildlife roaming about. no animals to speak of, snails and slugs dont count like actual wildlife that is neutral to the player. All and all I do like the game for what it is, but at this stage I cant recommend picking it up for 17 dollars or even 15. This game is worth 10 bucks at this stage and that is me giving it the most praise, we say bethesda games are as wide as a ocean deep as a puddle, unfortunately thats this game too, It is fun with friends but I suggest waiting about a year before picking this up when tangible content is added

Played for 40 minutes with a friend of mine then the game crashes (it crashed probably 4 times). i lost all progress even though i saved religiously throughout playing. i understand this is early access but i hope this gets fixed becomes more playable.

This is such an amazing game. First off, you have nostalgia for Morrowind and even a little bit of Oblivion:Shivering Isles vibes. On top of that, exxcellent voice acting with a much wider range than even Elder scrolls games. Then add an exceptional soundtrack, modernized movement and combat while still maintaining that old school feel, a unique art style with a penchant for an acid trip and you're left with a game that just feels like home. Buy it. You'll get your money's worth.

This game is so fun! The world and lore are really interesting, the story is intriguing and a little unsettling, the NPCs are quirky and unique and fun (watch out for the bread seller... yeesh!) and I can't stop playing. It plays like an older Elder Scrolls game (which makes sense as it was inspired by Morrowind but without reading a novel every time you're talking to an NPC). Graphics are nothing to write home about, but I think that's a stylistic choice. Combat feels very Morrowind, too... so make of that what you will lol. Definitely recommend this for anyone who enjoyed Morrowind and/or an old school Bethesda RPG.

*Very* broken game, I can clip through any locked door pretty easily with any intent whatsoever. If you spam run after your stam runs out and hold it, you just get to run infinitely, for some reason gaining more stam than you lose. Pretty much anything in this game can be broken in your favour. The favourite item/quick equip only works about 30% of the time. Going between weapons and spells is a herculean feat. Some quests just don't work for turn in, there's very little variety in items, the desync in multiplayer is laughable, both in terms of location/combat and time of day. Certain perks that are supposed to only apply to one weapon type actually apply to ALL weapon types, making combat silly at best. Cool ideas, but not even ready for early access imo. Janky fun with friends, but realistically you should wait to purchase this for a while. Goofy cast of characters/interesting worldbuilding, but man this is the most unfinished feeling game I've played in a very long time. If the genre wasnt so dry, I guarantee this would be review bombed into hell for what it's like at the moment, but a scrolls like that has any depth at all is so rare, it's refreshing to see someone try. I wouldn't play this alone, but I will prob keep playing it with a friend. The bugs are entertaining at least. There's an outrageous amount of work to be done, hope the devs don't take the money and run! This is a very hesitant recommend as a sandbox with a friend!
